Favorite child characters?

[SoranMBane]

Probably the lead characters from Digimon Tamers. Even as a little kid I appreciated how well-rounded and realistic they were, despite a lot of the subtlety going over my head at the time. There's not much point in me going over why they're so fantastic myself, though, since someone already did a video series on them that's far more in-depth than any forum post I could ever write; on Takato [http://blip.tv/jesuotaku/digimon-tamers-part-two-takato-5918868], Henry [http://blip.tv/jesuotaku/digimon-tamers-part-two-henry-5919088], Rika [http://blip.tv/jesuotaku/digimon-tamers-part-two-rika-5965886], and Jeri [http://blip.tv/jesuotaku/digimon-tamers-part-two-jeri-5966097].

I'm gonna have to go with Drizzt Do'Urden during the Dark Elf Trilogy. He kicks everything's ass; he kills a basilisk while he's still practically a teenager.

I'm gonna go with Squee. He was cute, cuddly, and miserable. I loved every second of him.

Spoiler: This is Squee.

EDIT: Honorable mention to Calvin.

Nanako from Persona 4

Toph from Avatar

And that^ is how you write good child characters.

Any given Link from a Zelda game in which the hero embarks on a journey during his childhood. Also, Romani from Majora's Mask is flat-out adorable. So much character jam-packed into one semi-minor NPC.

Also, we can't forget Tails. Or at least, when Sega remembered that he was a major character with an IQ of around 300.

And I certainly shall not forget about the Cutie Mark Crusaders from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, the heroes of either Avatar animé (Toph's been my favorite), or Yukari Sendo from Rosario + Vampire. She may be in high school but she's still eleven years old.

I'm gonna go with Squee. He was cute, cuddly, and miserable. I loved every second of him.

Spoiler: This is Squee.

Whoever that is, I thought he was Dib from Invader Zim at first. Someone else I forgot to mention.
