Roy Mustang would be really good or you could be mori from ouran high school host club. If you grew your hair out a little you could be shinji from Neon Gensis Evangelion. Yay for otakon ^.^

I remember him as Young Guts so i think you can pull him off. Personally i like him when he was younger. So i think it would be nice for you.

oooh! Aizen Sosuke. I'd highly recommend the Hueco Mundo version, because the normal version is way overdone.

He was a nice addition to the Blade of Fate DS game... He was challenging.

he looks cool, but it looks like it would take WAY too much to pull him off. xD

i'm not too familiar with the anime either.
