If only there were a universal way to make characters suitable for both guys and gals, things will be much simpler. I'm sure you guys notice the conspicuous difference in the type of product made for each gender. To make things simple, Shounen or Seinen for males while Shoujo or Josei for females. Each genre has their own types of stock characters. I've read and view from all 4 genres I mentioned above. So it is quite hard to get a male/female character out of one genre and call it the favorite of all because it won't be applicable elsewhere in different genre. So, I will probably be quite bias on my favorite because I relate more to Shounen and Seinen.
My favorite type of protagonist is the zero to hero type. They are the one that is weak either physically/mentally or someone without any known skills/talents. Usually that character has some sort of inner strength/potential that isn't realized yet or will be acquired it through some challenges. The protagonist will later improved it through more hard work and it become their main strength or extra visible trait that ppl will acknowledge them for.
