Empire
1. Reinhard, a tactical genius, and he gets the coolest looking ship in the Series.
2. Ruentahl, Here we have yet another Tactical Genius, and probably the most well-developed character in the series
3. Kirchies,
4. Oberstien, probably the best "Is he good or evil?" Character in anime, and you have the voice of Kaneto Shiozawa coming out of his moith, pure win!
5. Mittermeyer, I'm surprised as to why I ranked him so low on my list, I guess because it's that even though he was brilliant as an admiral, he just wasn't as cool as the others mentioned
Honorable Mention: (In this order) Bittenfeld, Fahrenheit, Annerose, Wahlen, Stienmetz, Mecklinger, Eisenach.
Alliance (I was shocked when I learned that these guys were the most Popular in Japan)
1. Yang, what more needs to be said
2. Oliver Poplan: Any scene where he's involved I have to chuckle at, maybe because he reminds me of myself a lot.
3. Dusty Attemborough, It's General Patton meets Jerry Seinfeld, he's a funny guy, but knows when to take things Seriously
4. Walter Von Schenkopp, probably the manliest characters in all of anime, when he and the Rosenritters show up, you knew there would be blood!
5. Julian Mintz, at the start of the series I didn't like him that much, but as the series went along, he sorta grew on me, and seeing as how most of the other alliance characters sorta bored me, i found him to be one of the better ones
cglennt：
Been a while since the last time I watched the show but I'd have to rate things like this:
Yang Wen-li
Dusty Attenborough
Olivier Poplan
Walter von Schenkopp
Siegfried Kircheis
Then basically everyone in the Reich tied for 6th, minus Oberstein who I am compelled to hate.
Were Kircheis given more screen time, I could easily see him being higher on the list. If I had to choose the greatest mind in LoGH, he would probably be tied with Yang.

Echelon:
Well I'm only 9 episodes in myself, but so far both Yang and Reinhard are really awesome. Yang has a lot of character and seems really likeable, pretty goofy and carefree, but brilliant. And I like Reinhard's ideals and beliefs. It'll be hard to see who I like more between these two.
ps. BBS论坛最火的时候我还没出生呢。我看了银英2018版本，很喜欢。很惊讶这个论坛人气没有更高一些。油管上动漫片头曲"双子星"有1.5M的播放量。。。人气还是很高的。链接在此：https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5fk80I3orw 一听到音乐一看到脸，我忍不住就开心。以后再写我心目中的排名。作者:

1. Yang - Out of any anime I've seen he's the character I can most relate to. Be it personality wise (yay for slackers), philisophically (it's always nice to see a character, especially in the medium of anime, who doesn't believe that their actions are inherently right and who knows that while they're fighting for their ideals the same can be said for those opposing them), or in terms of ideals ("viva democracy") Yang is a character I can dig.
2. Schenkopp - I'm a sucker for badass manly types and Schenkopp is about as badass manly type as you can get.
3. Reinhard - Unlike Yang I find myself unable to relate to Reinhard much, especially as he rises up the ranks, but he does have some very likeable human qualities despite his having to keep up with appearances. It's also a good thing he had people who could deal with how headstrong he could be around him because Reinhard without some guiding hands could've been quite a reckless force. A very interesting character nonetheless.
After those three it's a toss-up between Mittermeyer, Julian, Attenborough, Merkatz, and Reuenthal.

It's hard to actually have a favourite character in a series with so many great characters like LOTGH.
I would give the titel to Oberstein and Reuenthal, the two misunderstood antiheroes of the series.
And there are some other rather strange fellows who won my heart:
De Villiers and his mad evil laughter when he decla made me laugh tears.
Merkatz, for some reason, never does something, but get's all the credit (I love the scene where he commands the fighters to launch and the enemy commander says: "What an unbelievable strategy. That must be admiral Merkatz" ;-)
在一部像银英一样拥有众多伟大角色的剧里，很难找到一个最喜欢的角色。
我会把这个荣誉给奥贝斯坦和罗严塔尔，两个被误解的反英雄。
还有其他一些奇怪的人深得我心：
德维利和他宣告时疯狂邪恶的笑声让我笑出了眼泪。
梅尔卡兹，由于某种原因，从不做事，但得到了所有的功劳（我喜欢他指挥战斗人员出发的场景，敌方指挥官说：“多么令人难以置信的策略！那一定是梅尔卡兹上将”）

It's more funny when you realize that allmost all imperial characters have their names deliciously stolen from nazi military commanders.
当你意识到几乎所有帝国人物的名字都是从纳粹军官那里偷来的时，更有趣了。

Now that you mention it, sometimes it does makes me feel weird to say things like, "I love the Reich" :/ So I'll split my faves into the two main sides to make myself appear like less of a nazi less biased.
REICH
1. Oberstein.
2. Reuenthal - He's just such a fascinating trainwreck. Tristian/tragic hero, indeed.
3. Mittermeyer - He's just such a good guy. His friendship with Reuenthal, his opposite, was touching. Also he and his wife are very cute, especially when their family gets bigger later on. :D
4. Müller - :3 ... Yeah, I don't know why, either.
5. Hilda - She could beat the crap out of Greenhill any day of the week.
6. Reinhard, Kircheis, and Annerose - Even more than I admire Reinhard and Kircheis' personal hero-qualities, I love these three and their relationships. Annerose is really fascinating, too.
7. The rest of the high admiralty equally (but minus Kempf and Lennenkampf).
8. Anton Ferner - He's basically Oberstein, Jr, but more of a normal person than his superior. I found him and his reflections on the Chief of Staff to be very interesting.
9. Alfred Grillpalzer - I just like his name. Also, he seemed interesting, with his lulzy freak-out over being let into that museum society. I expected him and Knapfstein to become more important, but ... well.
Free Planets
1. Yang Wen-li :D He's very likable. I usually only love BAMF heroes, but despite him being a cute dorky pacifist, I liked him a lot because he was truly a hero.
2. Julian Minci - Cute, then badass, and finally a true disciple of Yang Wen-li.
3. Dusty Attemborough - Liked his straight-arrow attitude, and contrast w. Poplan.
4. Walther von Schenkopp - He's just a straight up BAMF.
5. MASHENGO - He saves everyone's ass all the time, yet only Julian ever appreciates him. :'(
6. Poplan - Comic relief, until he gained some depth in the later episodes.
7. Fredrica Greenhill - Low on my list because I expected her to be cool like Hawkeye from FMA or something, but all she did was get Yang whiskey and cower behind Mashengo. :/ But I did think her relationship with Yang was cute, and ironically she got cooler for me after episode 82.
8. Karin - I had high expectations of her after her Samus Aran-like intro, but ...
9. Yang's cat :3
Dynamic_A
Did any LoGH materials ever give the name of Yang's cat? I was always of the opinion that HE was the one De Villiers was warning them about right before he died.
银英中有没有提过杨的猫的名字？ 我一直觉得*他*才是德维利死前警告他们的人。
viesiu
Rainhard as one of the most charismatic and strong willed characters I know and then Reuenthal, cuz he's badass and Wakamoto Norio dubs him :P
莱因哈特是据我所知最有人格魅力和主见的角色之一，然后是罗严塔尔，因为他很赞而且若本規夫给他配音 :P
Athena
The top spot is tied between Yang and Reinhard - you can't make me choose. Early on, though, Yang was my favourite, then it slowly gravitated towards Reinhard. Then it just kept oscillating between the two. The things this series does to me.
Reuenthal is a very close second. He's so complex and fascinating, he makes me want to tear apart all his layers just so I can get a glimpse of his psyche.
I adore Kircheis as well, his heart is clearly made of gold; too little screentime, unfortunately.
Mittermeyer and Bittenfeld get honourable mentions. In fact, I think I can fill up my entire favourite character list with just people from LoGH.
杨和莱因哈特并列第一 — 我选不了。 一开始我最喜欢杨，后来慢慢地被莱因哈特吸引了。 然后就一直在两者之间摇摆。 这部剧让我难以抉择。
罗伊恩塔尔紧随其后。 他是如此地复杂和迷人，他让我想撕开他的一层层伪装，一睹他的心灵。
我也喜欢吉尔菲艾斯，他的心是金子做的；很遗憾出镜太少了。
米达麦亚和毕典菲尔特获得荣誉提名奖。 其实，我想我可以用银英人物填满我整个最喜欢角色列表。
Maureval
1. Oskar von Reuenthal - I love this man. It's a pity he was defeated but he died victorious. Chapeau bas!
He was very classy, intelligent, ambitious and charismatic. His gothic appearance and heterochromatic were mesmerizing for me.
Not to mention the great voice of Norio Wakamoto. <3
2. Yang Wen-li - I still like him very much because I'm similar to him. I love history, tea and I'm also very laaazy. ;)
3. Hildegarde von Mariendorf. I'd like to be like her. : As a very strong-willed and smart woman she even excelled Reinhard and his minions in mind games/politics.
4. Wolfgang Mittermeyer. A nice man and ideal husband. ;) I like him because of his "normality" and his unusual friendship with Reuenthal.
5. Paul von Oberstein. The living and very machiavellian "raison d'etat". His fidelity to the Kaiser and the State has to be praised. ;) Yet, I can't forgive him scheming against Reuenthal.
1. 奥斯卡·冯·罗伊恩塔尔 - 我爱死他了。 虽然他惜败，但是却光荣地战死了。 脱帽致敬！
他非常优雅、聪明、野心勃勃、富有魅力。 他的哥特式外表和瞳膜异色令我着迷。
更不用说若本規夫美妙的声音了。 < 3
2. 杨文理- 我很喜欢他，因为我和他很像。 我喜欢历史、茶，而且我也很懒。 ;)
3. 希尔德·冯·玛林道夫。 我想成为像她一样的人：一个意志坚定、聪明的女人，她甚至在政治游戏上胜过了莱因哈特和他的爪牙们。
4.米达麦亚。 一个好人和理想的丈夫。 ；）我喜欢他因为他很“正常”和他与罗伊恩塔尔不同寻常的友情。
5. 巴尔·冯·奥贝斯坦。 活生生的马基雅维利式的“国家至上”。 他对莱和帝国的忠诚值得称赞。 ；）但我不能原谅他对罗严塔尔的阴谋。
2.杨文理。我当初边看边想，起这个名字意思是文理双全是吧。。。追剧的时候没什么感想(奥贝斯坦 one and only)，追完了没想到后劲还蛮大。觉得他人挺好的。主要是帅？!颜值不比所谓的“银河系第一美男子”莱因哈特低。(好像还稍微帅一点？)大家都说他有不完美的地方，比如，赖床(赖个5分钟不算赖床吧？谁又没有赖床过20分钟半小时呢？)、体育差(其实都没差啦，放在人人龙傲天的动漫里才会显得突兀吧)、考试成绩低(咳咳，也没有影响他职业发展啊)。但是看完外网帖子，杨人气第一，和某BBS年年追悼(呃我生日那天要不要这么阴间，我分分钟能哭出来啊)发现，大家都觉得他人很好，能和他产生共鸣和认同感。除却他是个“英雄”之外，他真的很会为人处事，这样的人在现实生活中，肯定也能到达很高的位置，因为大家都乐意帮他。所以他其实是完美的，工作超强处世超强。希望性格上能努力和他靠近(反思，为什么不呢？)然而现实中性格却像奥贝斯坦方向滑去（Oh no！！！）同样是中国人差别怎么这么大呢。。。哭。最近几年，很多悲惨的战争发生了。我想说，he has more humanity than many in real life. 一个2D的纸片人，却比现实中的人更有人性、拥有这么多的同时却如此谦卑。他让我反思自己。
