That S&M Cardassian who tortured him must have gotten a look and never said anything to Picard, what a joker.

Too many.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Does it count as a fictional crush if you're just thirsty for the person portraying the role?

Crushes I had before I was 13:
Harley Quinn
Jessica Rabbit
Anaksunamun from the Mummy and the Mummy Returns
Topanga fromn Boy Meets World
Laura Winslow and Myra Monkhouse from Family Matters
Jill in the Whole Nine Yards
Jinx in Die Another Day
Penny in Lost in Space
Esmerelda in Hunchback of Notre Dame
Elastigirl in The Incredibles
Princess Kida in Atlantis: The Lost Empire
I deeply regret Harley because sexualizing a victim is not cool, but that went over my head as a kid.

I never cared much for Ryoko. I was much more interested in Ayeka.

Rogue from the X-Men. This was amplified when I played her in X-Men vs Street Fighter.
Runner up goes to Android 18
back then I was mildly annoyed that his older form didn't have as much skin exposed as his younger form.This guy

Earliest, hm, strange fondnesses, that I can recall are Maid Marian (from the Children's BBC show) and Paula Abdul, so I submit Marian:
That'd have been late 80s/early 90s?
In terms of most oddly strong fictional crush though, I have to give a mention to one from my early/mid-teens, because hooboy her presence on screen was incredulously potent at that point in my development. Zev (or Xev? the red-haired one) from Lexx:
mid-90s?

My baby's sister first crush was Bakura from Yu-Gi-Oh!.
I'm too mortified by mine to post it.

The moment when you realize that you had a crush for half of the stuff mentioned in this thread.

imo a fictional crush is special bc it is based mostly on your imagination. i don't entirely buy that live action counts. you are mostly crushing the real person playing that role.
animation is closer to this than live action. you are given only two dimensions at a time, and the character design can be varied and stylized in ways live action cannot. it can distort proportions through time, abstracting the form, prompting the imagination to fill in the blanks so to speak.
it would be cool to see someone post a literary crush. literature is probably the most potent form of fiction when it comes to imagination. but it's hard to think of a well-known character that has not been adapted into multi-media.

Fuck yes, current crush
Speaking only from my own perspective, I don't know if I could have had such 'odd attractions' based on pages alone at such an age (as Things were beginning to change). There was a lack of maturity, in several facets, in myself there. The girls in the books I was reading at that age, Susan from Weirdstone of Brisingamen for example, were just cool people who I thought of as friends. There was, in my mind, no curiously eye-grabbing adjustments in a book-girl's body shape, no specific arrangement of their narrative facial features that my mind did the mathematics on and outputted 'look at me, for no known reason'. At those very early stages, there was no holistic engagement in crushing - it was just raw confusing magnetism of attention, and wholly visual.

I hope he means her late teenager version from some of the cartoons.
Also, I am old and this was my first crush, surprised that there are no pictures from her in this thread yet:
Sally Acorn from the Sonic SatAM cartoon.
That version specifically. I seem to remember her voice being what I liked most, too.
So out of curiosity just now, I went to look up who her voice actor was, and she was pretty prolific (Kath Soucie), though what's making me laugh right now is finding out she voiced Helga's mom from Hey Arnold, and that's causing some weird mental images in my head.
edit: Alternatively, maybe Sailor Mars. I was watching both around the same time as a kid, so can't quite remember which was first.
