Saiyuki (13)
Hakkai is my favorite character from
Saiyuki. He's well-educated and clever like Zelgadis from
Slayers but fortunately possessed of a usually much more upbeat temperament. But like all great characters he hides a painful past that gives him depth and complexity.
Once again Crystal captured the essence of the character beautifully, including his faithful friend Jeep, the dragon known as Hakuryuu.
