Probably the coldest take ever, but..
Ai from Oshi no Ko
The way she was portrayed in the manga/anime made me really believe and understand why everybody loves her and why the world went crazy for her. Getting behind-the-scenes with her personality made her all the more likeable, the author really knew how to make a charismatic character and frame her in a light that made you think, "Yeah. I get why everyone likes her." She steals your attention every second she's on screen and I'd be hard-pressed to find someone that doesn't like Ai, or at the very least doesn't understand why everyone loves her.

The meme, the myth, the tumblr legend..
Sans Undertale.
Of course this guy has to be on here. I'm no rabid Sans fangirl, there's no, "original oc do not steel, she's dating Sans and he loves her v v much" etc. But the Undertale fandom and all of the Alternate Universes of "Okay- what if Undertale but--" deeply influenced my life and introduced me to someone online who I now
live with. I can't
not mention this guy.
Even if it's not just the original Undertale character who I deeply admire, him and his source material really sparked my creativity in my youth and I've been writing with the person I now live with since Early 2017, starting with kind of cringe Undertale fanfiction (even some of that to this day, as a treat), and now we're developing our own worlds and stories and I've been having a blast with them for the past 6 and a half years of my life.

Get this fully-grown man a bottle of wine - it's Venti Genshin Impact
Nothing as deep or as introspective as Ai or Sans here.. I just like him a lot.
