I have a number of characters I like (hey, a whole roster full, really), but I'd say the top characters fall into two categories:

I. The Ones I Play As:

ZEE KFM by Zero-Sennin, my favorite KFM varient. Awesome sprites, some of the same gameplay and supers, some not. Plus the wood throw! All around fun to play with and easy to do some combos with. (needs more palettes, though...)

Sub-Zero by Sean Altly, who finally managed to bring a good Capcom style Mortal Kombat character, and a fun one to play at that! Slick, not to easy to play with, but with lots of options as far as ice specials. Overall very nice.

Wonder Woman by Loganir, who is a LOAD of fun, even though I'm starting to move away from VS style. The whip moves are handy, the punch chains are nice, hypers are cool, and the fx look great! The sprites, especially, are incredibly fluid. Not to mention, again, just plain fun!

II. The Ones I Can Appreciate (and try to play as)

DragonClaw by Reu, all the above comments apply, basically. Fluid, AI is beast, fx are slick, and still looks nice despite the kinda dated conversion to the pixel form. Would LOVE to reach a rpoint where I could play this one well.

Goku Z2 by Team Z2... Yeah. You know the drill. Hope it stands the test of time!

OH, that's a tricky one. :S

Hmmm, Sludge's Shuma Gorath is pretty fun to use, mostly because I've always found him to be a really odd and cool character. XD

Maxime by Ryanide, he's such an original character for Mugen. Weak, but devastating Hyper Combos, and so darn well animated. He also kinda reminds me of a Klonoa character. :S

Dshiznetz's Gardevoir, I've always thought Gardevoir was freaking cool, not only is she based on acting and theatre (something I work with) she also looks cool! :D

Splode's Hiryu, it's Strider Hiryu, 'nuff said.

Jill Valentine by Magus, an original and better take on Jill Valentine than even MvC2. He removed the odd zombie strikers in favour of more logical tools and weapons that Jill would use, and still manages to put in a ton of funny bits and references to RE1 & RE3, (BARRY BURTON)

DCat's Turtles... it's TMNT for chips sake!

Kamekaze's C.Falcon, a real surprice release, and fun to use aswell, only nag would be the Falcon Punch being a one button move, but meh. Still fun. :P

Mukai (any), there's something cool about Mukai compared to other SNK villians, he's not downright evil, he has a great respect for humanity, he's a good loser and eager for a rematch, and even kinda warns you about Saiki. It's a pity he was executed by that damn bastard in KOFXIII, he was so cool.
But perhaps with time being reshaped, perhaps his death has been retconned? Sure hope so. :S

Suiseiseki by Drowin desu. No honestly, she is fun to use, has a bit of a MVC moveset style, hilarious attacks (vacuum cleaner of kitchen tools?!) and you kinda feel bad about pulling the soul out of someone not even HALF your size if you encounter her in arcade mode.

Metalman by Laspacho. Metalman has ALWAYS been my favourite Megaman boss, nonstop. And combine this with Hyadain's remix theme, Metal Man, Made of Metal, it just so darn badass...

Nijikaku's Heika, what, who? WTF, what did he? Wait, did he just? Huh?

Nijikaku's higyupan and roggyolgee-2, I dunno why, but those MS Paint drawn super robots... are really darn cool, must be the hammy acting. :S

Mystia Lorelei by minoo, of all the Touhou characters, she's my favourite. She's like a combination of a Siren and Wolverine! (have you seen thoce claws?!)

Obrecht's Scorpion, I think he's cool, not just because of the "get over here" and hellfire stuff, but because he's actually the most neutral character of the bunch. He had a loving family, a cool job (ninja), good life, and then it all were taken away from him by Shang Tsung and Quan Shi. He's so damn tragic, and all he wants, is his people and family back. But ironically, I liked his MK1 appearence the most. XD

Sinistro's Vertigo, Primal Rage (or was it Brutal Rage?) was a narmy, but cool game. Vertigo was probably the most unique of the bunch, and the only unique villian character (both Diablo and Chaos were palette swaps) that, and she's the godess of insanity!! Cthulhu must be mad at her!

Raigus Julius Belmont and Dracula, Julius Belmont, hands down, coolest Belmont in my opinion, altough Richter is very funny for his narmy speech in Sotn. I still use the old version of Dracula just so I can hear Richter and Alucard's speeches overlap each other while talking to Dracula. XD

Bigshowofall's Dedede, yes, hate him or love him. I played the first Kirby's Dreamland before I could even read, and King DeDeDe with his royal coat and Hammer was just so damn cool, not to mention his music theme! So having King DeDeDe playable in Mugen and SSBB just made me collapse in tears of joy. XD

Warner's Wario, I also loved thoce Wario Land games on the Gameboy, so much fun! Wario is a definite favourite, because he's also fun to use in Mugen, and full of funny references to his different games.

Curze's Golden-Silver, with AI: freaking impossible to beat. without AI: Hard, but fun boss fight. Not only that, before appearing as a nightmarish boss fight in Guardian Heroes, he was the final boss of Gunstar Heroes, Treasure's FIRST GAME. That makes him their first villian ever! (not counting General Grey or Smash Daisaku)

Cyclops Beam's Homura Akemi: Aw really Dio? You can stop time and throw daggers at people? Ever experienced having time stopped and facing a ton of mortars and rocket launchers? No? Too baaaaaad...

David Demianoff's Vegeta: I have two words: "Finalo Flash", hilarity ensues...

RY 2005's Abubo Rao: Ahaha, right, Abubo, I just lure him near that pit and... oh wait, no pit? And he's BIGGER? Aw, crap... jokes aside, he's hard to use, but he got a really cool air about him. Really cool character...

Roque's Rera: She's just cool, that's all. Cool... damn cool.

ZAGI, Kuando, Ella & Giano by AIDUZZI, Oh man, where to start. Very well made, funny animations, lots of humour, heart and soul. They are just, plain old fun. Especially Giano, I can totally imagine him being Suave Dude's boss (as in his master). XD

to bed that there isn't many decent dinosaur characters in mugen -_-
Probably because there's not a lot of dinosaur fightning games.  Though there are Lord Sinestro's Primal Rage characters.

list of Dinosaurs characters in fighting games :

Primal Rage characters : Lord Sinestro made Talon, Vertigo, and Diablo , as well as JP Raptor from the genesis JP game, none of these are actaully good, as their being broken , the sadder thing is the very fact that their the ONLY decent PR characters made for mugen

Riptor from Killer instinct : the only one is made by  Chaseallendiaz , being unstable , I even talked with the Author himself, but I don't think his gana update his characters anymore , again this is the only KI Riptor in mugen

Gorzilla monsters and Altraman dinos : so many authors yet so little effert

Houzer by Mature Forever and the one by ,: these are like one of the only decent ones out there

Yoshi by.......... oh please -_-  the less we even talk about this the better

you  got the point I guess

Angela Belti by DrKelexo, lets not forget to give him creadits , someone finally made a decent version one of my fav chracters in vidoe games of all times

9 is also in my fav authors  for making a source accurate Kishima kouma , his my fav and main in all of MB games

Inazumachi by 2OS

Enormous ( to say the least ) learning experiences in code / math / basic spriting / frankenspriting / effects / indexing/palettes / others.

It's 100 % trial and error. It truly is the best way to learn.


Angle Draw Sphere by pkrs

This is the weirdest most original unique thing in mugen. It has 2 MB of code ( 11 CNS files ). Its cheap factor ranges from an AI less KFM can kill it's most balanced mode, to being ( the first character to ever be ) able to KILL ( KO ) the character F1.

It basically REEKS of effort.


Dragon Claw by Reu

An original character where multiple aspects were ( well ) done by one person ( something I intend to do myself, in time ).


Mizuchi type m by 608

The same guy that made the Original God Orochi DRASTICALLY re creates him while making fun of his own old creations and admitting they're terrible and that he is ashamed of them by making an intro where they are pancaked.

When you examine both characters files it basically proves that anyone no matter how terrible can improve to unbelievable extents ( God Orochi is one of the laziest characters ever, the remake is the POLAR opposite ).


Jill by Warusaki3

So well made that for a long while I thought she was officially a console exclusive to CVS2. When I found out she wasn't in the series whatsoever I holy shitted.

WARNING, I MAY COME OFF AS ARROGANT IN THIS POST...but I don't really care.

As an author I must confess that I rarely indulge in others works unless it absolutely interests me buuuuut......

Captain Falcon by me- I like this character simply because of the reaction I got for him from everyone else. Like how his falcon punch is one button when it was ALWAYS one button in every "fighter" hes been in. Or that he is difficult to use when hes not. In all honesty I also like him because of how fun he is to me with the combo potential I've given him(check my YT for said combos). He started rather unpolished like most of my works often do but I'm happy with how he is now.

Condor by me - Well what can I say, I tried pretty much all the other ones I've known about and all of them disappointed me, not to say mine is better but I know damn well its more accurate. I've used Condor in breakers since I picked up the game (5 years ago) and when I finally possessed the ability to make him I jumped at it.

Kyosuke by me - Again, something I've always wanted to do and even now he could use an update but I feel I've laid the groundwork for how Rival schools: Project Justice, characters can work in MUGEN while maintaining their source accuracy to a degree.

Jean Pielle by Adamskie - While he was rough around the edges he was pretty much the first legit Karnov character I've ever come across, the thing is dated to the point where I had to do some personal editing of my own to get to be source accurate but beyond that I didn't have to do too much in said editing.

All DBZ: Hyper dimension characters by me - They will always hold a special place in my heart because of the fact that I never found any character that even tried to be accurate to the source. DBZ: HD was one of the first fighters I played after sf2 and I played the f*ck out of it to be honest. So to know that I was able to bring them to life (as close to accurate as possible) in mugen made me feel that much better about my decision to convert all of them.

MvC2 Hulk by me - He is my most recent work but as I said it took pretty much a year to get the super armor system accurate to mvc2 down to the last detail. I'm more proud of that then the fact that I converted him honestly, but it is also true that MUGEN was lacking a decent (accurate) hulk as well.

Skullomania by DEMAN - I know I have a history of butting heads with this author over his less than accurate choices from some properties of moves (otg sweep seriously wtf), but it was a SFEX character that felt like it should which to me was amazing since the game gets next to no love at all times. Now I did make some personal adjustments for better accuracy(like the damn otg sweep sh*t) but it still remains one of my favorite chars to use. His Shadow Giest is just the same to me as well.

Tetsu by XCB - Love him or hate lets all be honest, he had a huge impact on almost all of us from the 2k5-2k8 era and even still today some people may still be impacted by it. While it had flaws and was notorious for its ease of use it pretty much got me that much more interested in making chars to begin with. Special mention is Jill by XCB as well.

All DBZ chars by choujin- Again, another huge inspiration to me and while some of his works are known for being somewhat cheap, they were still a blast to use.

GM's SF3 characters - Do I really need to explain? They are what inspired me to do Dudley honestly. That and the lack of accurate sf3 Dudley. GM da bes, nuff said.

Rugal by Jin - Rugal is without a doubt one of my favorite snk characters and Jin's take on him just for the sprites alone was breathtaking. It's not the best rugal but he inspired some things that I plan to release in the future.

Geese Howard by M.I.B.(KOD, Koopakoot, Vans) - It's just my favorite kof geese really. Everything feels just about right even if its not exactly accurate.


Mech Gouki by MystikBlaze - He did a fantastic job on one of my favorite vs series bosses.

Kenshiro by Drowin(Edited by um......ffffff I forgot his name)- Not so much drowin, hell not drowin at all. Mostly because of the edit that made him arcade accurate was so good.

Potemkin by Muteki - Potemkin is my main on every Guilty Gear. That being said it's also worth stating that Muteki has come a long way with his GG works as they used to be inaccurate piles of trash imo. They are getting there honestly feel one update away from being MUGEN-wise perfect.

Koopa Troopa by LegatoB and Titiln - He's small yet hes awesome and hes well done. He's a good character. That's all.

Krauser by Jin - See rugal by Jin. Also he plays pretty well despite some minor issues I have with it.

SFA2 Gouki by GDT - The best sfa2 Gouki/Akuma in existance imo. it has some slight flaws though (not being able to kara demon), but nothing that can't be fixed with some tweaking. Also includes shin akuma mode which is great for a final boss.

That's all I got for now, I'm sure there's more but that's all I can remember
Sony took it down :( Guess it gave people the wrong idea. rip amberlamps.
96/150 Chars, I'm not dead yet....the true surprise is in my thread.

I'm slower. I need 6 months to one year between each update.

Initial release : Vegeta Z2
First update : Super Vegeta Z2
2nd update : Super Vegeta Z2 Arcade Edition
etc.

My favorite MUGEN characters?

Well...

1.) All 6 character edits I have officially released for starters. Since I have (partially) made those characters, I can use them and make them to a higher level of standard.

2.) Fat Albert by DDR. One of my first characters in MUGEN and one of the most used too.

3.) Most characters by The_None. These characters are pure gold in humor!

4.) And lots others. I can't name them all now. That will have to wait for later.

A couple of other favorites of mine...

Ella, Kuando, Giano and Ubu by Aiduzzi. These creations should be at the top of your must have list as they are 100% original. What makes these shine are their interactivity and style, not to mention their excellent playability.

Thor, Wonder Woman and SandMan by Loganir. Another batch of originally sprited characters that feature solid gameplay on top of fantastic design/animations. I would consider these characters precursors to Balthazar's amazing work. Which is how you should create characters from scratch!!

And Kamakaze, I don't think you come off of arrogant at all. Your MvC2 conversions kick some serious ass.

Well, not quite 100%.  Unless you're talking about sprites and gameplay, but it was my understanding that Ella was Samara from The Ring, and the rest were from Japanese legend?

Could be mistaken, though.

Anyways, another three I'd like to add to the list is GM's Char's Zaku, Char's Zugock & Acguy.  Simple, fun, Gundam, love the close ups on the Supers and the added effect that the opponent explodes when killed with a Super.  The A.I. also provides a challenge but is not impossible.

Well, even though inspired from Samara, she's still 100% original in terms of spriting and gameplay.
And all the stuff she has with teddy bears , chainsaws and dynamites are clearly original. :P

Nerfed?? When I play against them, I generally use them as sub-bosses, so I think they're right. At least for me :P I hope Aiduzzi keeps making more stuff for MUGEN (even when I know it's actually retired)

Well, seeing various of you made their list with own creations, I see why not make mine:
-Eric - Unperfect Shotoklone
More than my greatest creation ever, he's more like my son. He was one of the first projects I made and spent several years making him, and the final result still amuses me. A character I never get bored and always is in every roster I made
-SS4 Gen-an Shiranui
My very first project, as Eric I spent many years making him and I get satisfied with the experiment. Also Gen-an is one of my main chars in first 2 SS games. I've to improve him more than now
-Reiji Oyama
My first finished character and the base for a lot of my future creations, as well the first of many classic chars I made, he's my guide and the only template I use
-EX chars
My first attempt to make a KOF gameplay and I think I did a good job with [E], based in one of his chars and a guide for me about creating KOF stuff since always. The first one was Rai, and later Yuki and Ryu got this gameplay. I hope to make more like them as well improving more and more, since I still thinking the EX gameplay can't be called as "finished" or "done" yet
-Keiji Thomas
He's the proof that with very few sprites you can make a decent character for MUGEN. He's my pride and a gift for all old-school players out there, and the first of the 8-Bit series. It comes more, I assure you ;)
-CF's Earthworm Jim
My new pride. One of my favourite character of all times made for first time in N64's ClayFighter series, it was an honor to rip and make him for MUGEN, he'll be the base for all the other CF chars I wanted to make
-Another k9999
AKIRA was the anime that changed my life, and Tetsuo Shima always was one of my favourite characters ever. And since k9999 it was a SNK tribute to him, why not make him more accurate to AKIRA?? A year of work that I enjoyed to make and now he's in every roster I make right now

Also, various of you remind me about other notable chars I like and use, so soon I'll make another list with them :P
