there's also the raptor from jurassic park thanks to lord sinistro but uh....yeah...might as well add why for everyone!

DrKelexo thangs:
Shion - probably my favorite character ever that made me appreciate what seemed to be the weakest design in battle monsters, but this made me realize he's a cool samurai dude who's fast as HELL and is fun to rushdown just about anyone with. and believe me, nothing much was more satisfying than doing a combo and ending the round with that super after dee bee kaw tried to kill me with his usual antics.
Albiole - my favorite character from battle monsters, and he's more or less faithful here.
Angela - first good Angela Belti ever
Earthworm Jim - first good earthworm jim, and stretching that, first good clayfighter character ever
Psykyopath - first good kof13 + akatsuki blitzkampf + dead rising hybrid??? no but he's amusing plus pretty well made, balance-wise
Trouble Man - first good oh my god i can't look at iori the same way anymore help
Deathmask - another battle monsters character i didn't really appreciate at first in his original game, but this one makes him 'smoother' and he's also pretty fun to experiment with, combo-wise. especially trying to chain grapples together
Mass thangs:
Hiryu - favorite character from survival arts and although he's a bit too overpowered compared to most, he's got everything from his source game including the weapon pickups, and is a total blast to use in survival
Karla - tattoo assassins represent. fun as hell arranged mode, hilarious auto fatalities, the whole shibang.
Jamm - one of my favorite characters from golden axe the duel, not much else to say
Kai - cool old-school beat em up ninja cyborg dude from a beat-em-up i really need to play all the way through one day
Ja-Koh - cool dude from rabbit, takes a bit of thinking to do good with him
Wu-Ling - in a rare case where a little girl fighting game character is actually cool. she's also pretty fun yet simple to use
Roche - awesome guy from daraku tenshi, plays just like the original, not much else to say
Stevareno - got me introduced to alien challenge, has all his original stuff, BUFFARO

The_None thangs
Kaf Ka - my favorite weird little magician midget from battle monsters is made faithfully here with some silly custom supers
Shadow Kouma - cool/hilarious concept using a cool dude from melty blood, yet isn't totally overwhelming somehow

Pneophen thangs
Rayden - mk1 mk trilogy wassup! pretty much how he is in the original with some neat little extras
Sub-Zero - an interesting 'what if' scenario if mk1 sub-zero was in mkt that's done really well

Skate Hunter by Dcat - incredibly fun to use, has all of his streets of rage stuff combined into a really well-done package

Rubber Soul and Khan by Baddarkness - two awesome guys from jojo's bizarre adventure done perfectly

probably everything by Borghi - out of all the 'mugen legends' and what have you, THIS guy deserves it. very imaginative and original characters all done from scratch with neat movesets. hashi is my current favorite

NGI thangs
Sagojo - gokuu densetsu character done mostly right, some issues here and there but that original super more than makes up for it

Kenbo - HAAAAAAAAAAAAADOBIN (thunk)

Mukuro by Ahuron - his EX mode is pure unbridled striker insanity that is always GREAT entertainment to see or use. BOTTLE CUT during giant mike tyson trying to punch people while earthworm jim is jumping around shooting things is what i use mugen for. also how the hell did i forget BRIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN that guy is amazing

Murakumo by Mikita - awesome guy from akatsuki blitzkampf with a neat ex mode

Kanae by aokmaniac13 - awesome chick from akatsuki blitzkampf done how she should be

Mr Shihan Ky by run - jin fu-ha with like 303546 hilarious special moves, incredibly fun to use or watch

Senator by Thomas Hsieh - sure is a challenge to fight, but done very well regardless

Mr. Jones by Jango - blends in his original rotd stuff with some custom stuff and it works seamlessly

Scorpion, Ikkyu and Politank Z by NHK - dunno what else to say, these three are my favorite characters from source (martial masters, blood warrior and waku waku 7 respectively) and they're all done really well

Zagi by Ukege - i don't give two damns about gundam but i love me some hnk. and even for a not-gundam-fan, this is an awesome edit. i pretty much was won over when instead of setting down barrels of gasoline he started chugging them like they were bottles of beer

Yurika Kirishima by Ferviciante - rival schools represent, amazing sprite/animation work, plays like she should with a slight kofxi touch, should've got WAY more attention than she did

Jose and Michael Sobut by envymask666 - two cool beat em up characters with pretty entertaining custom touches. i absolutely love how sobut has an easter egg where if you mash taunt while on level 2 super, he breaks into 'blue suede shoes' and has to dodge every single attack the opponent throws at him. if he doesn't get hit the entire time, he automatically wins

whew! back to actual work

Wow. Lots of really interesting thoughts and opinions everyone. You're all giving me some great material as I read during a nasty cold while on the couch. Mugen has been my Chicken Soup....

Don't forget to include the why's!! I love to read the reasons behind stuff. This is also a great way to research any possible variants I might have missed.

DarkCipherLucius' Creations - I can do huge-ass combos with these characters. His Ken's AI is unbeatable, he just rushes & attacks you like a bear.

Reu's creations - Same as DCL's, & more supers & what not.

Kohaku's creations - His Touhou creations are fun to use & also his POTS-like chars.

K (XI) by KOD - He's fun to play as, and his gameplay is a complete success.

Koop's creations - I like both his '02 & XI creations. I a bit more interested in the chars where you can select the gameplay in the config file. ;)

Vans' Creations - His chars are great, but I'm occupied on his Robert because of his 6 fighting styles.

Ethan Lives' (O) Creations - I'm addicted to his edits as they have a truckload of supers.

TJun's creations - I have an interest on his CVS2 style chars who are not from CVS2. I only tried his Mature.

POTS' Creations - His chars are like endless fun. That's all.  ;P

The_None's creations - Have an interest in these joke chars as they're funny, like his Shang Tsung.  ;D

I'll see if I can find more.

All PotS' Characters - His style is inspiration to many. His custom CvS style is flashy and effective/balanced. One of the main reasons I got into MUGEN and wanted to create myself.

All Jmorphman's Characters - Same as with PotS'.

All of Choujin's DBZ Characters - Choujin made DBZ chars fun and not cheap in MUGEN. Also, the choice of using sprites ripped from the DBZ arcade game was awesome. I've never played or seen that game myself, but I suppose it doesn't matter, because Choujin's style is great.

Strider Hiryu by Splode - This character has really withstood the test of time.

Ruby Heart by Beximus - Great character and RH is one of my fave chars from MvC2.

Wolverine by ArielAlexCo. - Could use some updates, but a very solid Wolverine and my personal favorite.

All of Jin's KoF Characters - Truthfully, I'm not a fan of KoF. Despite this, I like Jin's characters very much. Especially his Ex-Kyo.

Warusaki3's Characters most of them - Personal preference leads me away from characters like Zangief and Benimaru... Even so, Warusaki3 is another creator who inspired me to create. While his chars may not follow gaming priorities/functions with clsns and all, they're still good and follow the CvS2 format quite well.

H"s Mai/Sagat/Cody - H''s Mai was a big help in the creation of my own Mai. His characters are a bit outdated, though they still hold up well against more up to date versions of said characters.

Vyn's CvSx Characters - These characters can use some updates, though I love the effects and inspiration of a focus attack implemented into them. Also his Terry has that cool tornado spinning super. :D I've never seen Terry do that in any other game.

I'm more for CvS, though there are all kinds of great characters for MUGEN. That's what makes it great and never dull/stale. Ever changing and forever progressing/evolving. While I may have my favorites, I really do appreciate all legitament works for MUGEN.  :)

Nice choices Divine. I have both Ruby Heart and Strider in my MvC roster. Sander's Wolverine is my personal preference. I will also admit that I have a few of Kong's MvC2 creations. His Silver Samurai feels the most complete to me IMO.

Yeah, I like Sander's Wolvie too, but AlexAriel's Wolvie feels more combo friendly to me. Kong's creations are inspired, but he pushed all of those chars out in like less then a month... He's contributed lots to the MUGEN community however. I used his CVS2 sprite rips for my Mai. Oh and a few others I forgot...

Chrono_Strife's Zangya and Super Garlic JR. - Zangya and Super Garlic JR. Converted well for MUGEN. Nothing else needs to be said.  ;D

XCB/Big Eli King's Venom and Jill Valentine - Best MvC conversions of them in MUGEN IMO.

I like all these characters because i made them and enjoyed the challenge each one brought to me as i was making it. In no cases do i dislike any of these as they were all fun in one way or another while i was making them.

Might as well post a list now :

Shin Gouki by POTS :
His Ryu might be "the perfection", but his Shin Gouki, albeit slightly unbalanced, is "100% pure fun". Great moves, great feeling, the real Shin Gouki showing his mighty power.

Clark by OrochiKOF97 :
Years after, still the best Clark to date. My favourite grappler from all fighting games, with additional stuff.

Batman by Cybaster :
Yeah, I like my stuff. Thanks to Iced and his Idea Engineering, I'm really proud of this character, with his 3 modes and original stuff.

Goku Z2 and all the next Z2 chars by constant-growing Z2 Team :
It's a real pleasure coding Balthazar's sprites into action. We've developped a nice and efficient gameplay which I feel renders the DBZ universe quite well without relying too much on projectiles and being unbalanced.

Terry WLS by Vans, MotW Terry by GM :
Hmm, yeah, I like Terry in this outfit, and these are very good renditions in their own style.

Tetsu by XCB :
Fun gameplay, and the new balancing update makes him even better. Like POTS' Shin Gouki and Goku Z2, I feel this is the kind of "100% pure fun" character.

Omega Red by Cyanide :
Thanks Cyanide for taking the time to create this character. Respect for all the hours and hair lost coding the helpers and bindings.

Turtles and Krang by Dcat :
Semi MVC gameplay with LOTS of fun combos. All turtles are really different, and Dcat keeps adding awesomess to them.

Evil Ryu, Evil Ken and Dragon Claw by Reu :
Not much to say. You know them. I'l resume by : originality and attention to detail for pure cinematographic fights.

Rajaa Nero and Rajaa Roa :
Badass chars with fun POTS Rajaa style gameplay. I really wish Melty Blood actually played like that.

Leo, Blade, Hauzer by Doggiedoo :
Great renditions of these super charismatic Warzard characters. I love the work on weapons done for Leo.

Most people would say both Cyanide and Cybaster are relentlessly plugging themselves. However, seeing how great they are as contributors, you can only agree with them.

Gotta also agree with Divine on XCB's Venom and Jill. Both of them are in my MvC section, as well as Cyanide's Omega Red. Along with Cybaster's Goku and Batman.

Epic creations, that's for sure.

It could be taken as being arrogant or having an inflated ego with listing your own characters. Though, of course you'd like your own characters, that's why you created them(if you are a creator).  ;D I don't see it negatively however, because I like my own characters too. Also...

Kung Fu Man by Electbyte: All hail the mighty KFM!

It's not arrogant for one to like one's own characters, it's arrogant for one to claim that one's characters are better than all other characters.
