Most of my favorite anime characters are form mecha series such as

GUNDAM Series
1. Setsuna F. Seiei (pure determination/less emotion)
2. Graham Aker (i dunno, but i just feel like his character is cool)
3. Heero Yuy (Same as Setsuna, in addition, among of all the protagonist of the gundam series, he is the only one that havn't lost or beaten in the battle)
4. Zechs (like the mask and white long hair :D)

Code Geass
6. Lelouch Lamperouge (Brilliant Strategist character i've ever seen, can endure alot of emotional pain)
7. Kururugi Suzaku (the knight of Zero, Lelouch's Sword in the last series)

Zoids
8. Van Flyheight
9. Raven
10. Hiltz
(i just kinda like them :D)

i'm more of a mecha fan :D but i also like non-mecha character such as

(death note)
Yagami Light (Same as Lelouch! so brilliant character)
L (i like the way he thinks and his mannerism :D)

(Dragonball z)
Gogeta
Ultimate Gohan

and kamen rider black :D

I think the coolest are ..

1. Gaara (naruto) - evil turn to the kind one. He's totally cool when he became kazekage.
2. Kaito Kid (Mententei Conan) - very smart and totally cool
3. Edward Elric (FMA) - he's so smart and funny. I like every emotion of him
4. Kilua (Hunter X Hunter) - he's so strong and I like when he fighting
5. Zero (Vampire Knight) - aaa... he makes me so melting
6. Ciel Phantomhive (Kuroshitsuji) - he never show his emotion at all, that makes him so cool in my eyes
