Scully from X Files. Gillian Anderson with those eyes. She was and still is beautiful.

Finally, a new waifu thread.

Honorable mentions:

 

[Rhomega Beta]

These kinds of conversations always remind me of this funny comic:

Is that an actual character?

 

[Strimei]

Is that an actual character?

The wolf-man?

Yes.

WereGarurumon from Digimon.

 

[Kater]

Rogue from the X-Men. This was amplified when I played her in X-Men vs Street Fighter.

Runner up goes to Android 18

Android 18 is certainly... something. 👀 Also a childhood crush of mine.

Pebbles Flintstone and Meadow Soprano

Oh wow I just looked up Pebbles. ubique. you sick little puppy.

Chel from El Dorado.

dayum

Oh hell yeah 😏

 

[Mysterious]

Bulma :|

 

[godhandiscen]

This makes me sort of sad. I've never dated someone like her; they've all been complicated.

Interesting how many people answer with cartoon characters. Just can't relate.

I'm also stumped by the question; maybe Winnie Cooper?

Younger -> kids. Kids tend to watch cartoons.

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.

Yep, it's honestly way harder to get a crush on a fictional character in live action, and based off of this thread, it seems to be more the person behind the character.

Literary, hmm, I think maybe I could say Calypso (then again, she's made out to be highly idealized, until her 2nd appearance in the Heroes of Olympus series, where she's much more of an actual character) or Annabeth from the Percy Jackson series and maybe (I was that much into the series) Alanna from the Song of the Lioness series

Dr. Egon Spengler from Ghostbusters was my very first crush. I carried an action figure of him everywhere. To this day I have an attraction to nerdier dudes.

Goliath from Gargoyles - I totally think it was his voice. To this day I still get feelings for any voice work Keith David does.

Autolycus from Xena - He was just so charming. I then became a big Bruce Campbell fan and watched just about everything he's been in (except Burn Notice - couldn't make it past season 1).

lydia deetz, never stood a chance

Yep. I don't think you could have found a more unflattering picture though. :|

 

[Peyotl]

I had a huge crush on Padme in Episode One. That's probably the reason why I still kinda like this movie.
And Teenage Link from Ocarina of Time.
It was a very confusing time for me.

 

[Fat4all]

the map from Dora

 

[Red UFO]

Wednesday Addams was my first crush when I was Like, 8 years old or something.

Definitely informed my taste in women growing up.

 

[Always-honest]

Elaine Benes

So "younger" as in literally DAYS younger? Jesus, Elaine is from yesterday.

Kelly le Brock in my case (Weird Science (the movie)). And that's not even going way back for me.

Overreaction much? Seinfeld premiered in 1989, Weird Science was just 4 years prior.

Jet from TVs Gladiators.

 

[17 Seconds]

jennifer love hewitt in can't hardly wait

 

[Grenchel]

I think April from tmnt was the first time I had sexual feelings. It was during that episode when she is like in the body of some creature.

Oh cool.

[Milksheikhs]

Harry Potter
Sesshomaru from Inuyasha

 

[captainpat]

Aisha from Outstar

Rouge from sonic

Explains how my tastes developed into what they are today

 

[Exploratory]

Probably not the first but the first memorable one...

 

[Pizza]

I think my friends and I all had our first celebrity crush on kairi since we all played kingdom hearts at the same time when it released, and we were her age

They started actively arguing over who liked her first/ who called her once one found out the other liked her and I decided getting too emotionally attached to fictional characters is dumv

 

[bman94]

Pan from Dragon Ball GT. Don't you dare fucking jusge me.

 

[pigeon interrupted]

Bert Racoon. Look at the nose on that!

Also, Rocky of Rocky and Bullwinkle fame😢

 

[Teggy]

This makes me sort of sad. I've never dated someone like her; they've all been complicated.

"Like her"? Wow, I have so many questions - she's a superhuman supreme being that can hardly speak.

 

[Battlechili]

Brandy from Brandy and Mr. Whiskers
When I was a kid she was largely the reason I watched the show.

 

[Puck Beaverton]

Chel from El Dorado.

dayum

legit had a friend both look (as well as an animated/real comparison can) and act like her

she was super cool

Spoiler

and hot

 

[Boss Doggie]

this is apt for me

which is weird because I was 10 years old when Digimon came out

 

[Ryouji Gunblade]

I have three Ms.

Misty

Malon

Melfina

 

[AnathemicOne]

Hermione/Emma Watson, grew up with Harry Potter books/movies though middle school into high school. Crush still applies today.

May. Misty was a fun character in Pokemon and all my friends had crushes on her back in the day except me. Then May came along when the anime reached Hoenn. Hoenn was the last season(s) of Pokemon I watched to this day.

 

[Boss Doggie]

I mean, there was Rogue, but she was less crush and more of "wow she was so awesome and cool!" and then saw her X-Men Evolution version and said "wow that's lame"
