Top Ten Fictional Characters That You'd Want As a Friend

This list is filled with characters that I feel would make very good friends if they were real. Even if they may be a bad guy or something (i.e. someone who'd be cool as a friend if you were a bad guy). You can disagree or agree. Feel free to add anything to the list if you feel something is missing or create your own version. Alright, here we go.

The Top Ten

Batman

Batman, also known as Bruce Wayne, is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. The character was created by artist Bob Kane and writer Bill Finger, and first appeared in Detective Comics #27 in 1939. On film, Batman has been portrayed by Lewis Wilson, Robert Lowery... read more

He's a great fictional character but I wouldn't want him as a friend. He's probably boring and would get you killed by his rogues gallery (Joker, etc.)

Nah. He'd be a great ally but not a friend. You'd probably get bored by all his brooding or get killed by his enemies.

Um...actually, if you're gonna be close friends with Batman have fun being involved in countless disasters.
Timmy Turner

Timothy "Timmy" Tiberius Turner is a ten-year-old boy who is a fictional character and the main protagonist of the American animated series The Fairly OddParents, created by Butch Hartman for Nickelodeon. He is known for having fairy godparents who grant his wishes, often leading to comedic and chaotic... read more

I'm just curious to why is he not higher up in the list? If you ever needed anyone to be there for you, Timmy would more likely be there for you than most of these characters. If you were in any danger, he would wish for you to be safe. Batman may attempt to save you from danger and if he fails, it's all over. However, if Timmy Turner attempts to save you in the same kind of danger, he might fail but he will have more tries to fix the error before your doom because of his fairies.

Timmy Turner should be at least in the top 3, dude. He's the coolest Nickelodeon character ever made. He definitely has more good qualities than most people give him credit for. Sure, he may be a bit selfish. But what 10 year old isn't at times? Overall, all of Turner's good qualities overthrow any negative qualities he might have. He's more Holy than bad.
Harry Potter

Harry James Potter is the title character of the Harry Potter book series written by J. K. Rowling. The series chronicles his life from age eleven as he discovers his identity as a wizard and attends Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Over seven years, Harry confronts numerous challenges and... read more

I'll ask harry to teach me magic, so I'll help him to fight Lord Voldemort... But the most curious is how to use parseltongue and Expelliarmus, and I'll ask Harry to teach me that too

He is such a humble and compassionate character.

I'm friends with him if I moved to United Kingdom and sorted into Ravenclaw.
Dipper Pines (Gravity Falls)

Kyle Broflovski is a main character in the animated television series South Park. He is voiced by and loosely based on co-creator Matt Stone. Kyle is known for his strong moral compass and often serves as the voice of reason among the group.

If you were close with Kyle, he'd protect you. Given his good heart, he'll listen to your problems and help you with life choices. And like the other kids, he knows how to have some real fun!
Marty McFly

Martin "Marty" Seamus McFly is a fictional character and the main protagonist of the Back to the Future trilogy. He is portrayed by Michael J. Fox in all three films. The character was introduced in the first film released in 1985.

If he had a time traveling DeLorean in real life, you could ask him to go back in time to fix something that you didn't like on how it turned out. Becareful not to tell Doc Brown about are time travel plans though.

Except he'd probably find a way to screw it up and it would change the course of history and the future

He's so nice like no that's not the word just,...i have no idea
Patrick Star

Twilight Sparkle

Twilight Sparkle is the primary main character of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. She is a female unicorn pony who transforms into an Alicorn and becomes a princess in the episode Magical Mystery Cure. Her character is known for her intelligence, love of books, and leadership qualities.

She is so kind to others and tries so hard with her friends to spread the magic of friendship. Not only Twilight but her friends too; Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy and Rarity. Not only kids but Adults would relate to such well written characters.
Garfield

Garfield is a comic strip cat created by Jim Davis in 1978. The character has appeared in over 2,500 newspapers worldwide and starred in two live-action movies, three CGI films, and two animated TV shows: Garfield and Friends (1988-1994) and The Garfield Show (2008-2014).... read more

He's my favorite character of all time!

The Jedi of all Jedi (in my opinion). Together, no evil villian would be able to harm U.Kenobi would train you to be a Jedi and together destroy the evil Empire.

He could train you to be a Jedi knight and would protect you from any harm. Patrick Star and Obi-Wan would be my 2 choices for friends. - astroshark

He's my favorite character ever! Better than anyone else on this list.
