2. Goku
You read that right. Next to the true saviour of the galaxy, a man who lives, breathes and dies to fight, and one of anime’s most influential characters of all time – is a big fat two. We’ll give you a moment to gather yourselves. We have a spare Senzu Bean, should you need it.
The former Kakarot is a simple man; he adores food and his friends, and cannot stand injustice. He has a strong sense of decency in doing what is right, but has a few mental lapses now and then when his passion for competition leads to him taking his foot off the gas and letting his enemies get back into a fight. His endearing, affable nature lends to his popularity, as he bumbles his way from one mistake to the next, but he’s always able to put it all together when it counts. He is an inspiration to many, due as much to his purity as his courage. One can only ponder what kind of legendary warrior managed to pip him to the post, however…
