Have you ever read a novel, comic, manga, watched a movie, play, TV show etc., and you found yourself invested in a side character? Ever cared for and felt more intrigued by that side character than the mains? If so, what character was it and what are some.things that make you so interested in them?

Two of them, both from the same licence: Aigis from Persona 3, and Futaba Sakura from Persona 5

As someone who literally considers itself a robot, Aigis has really marked me with her story of becoming a robot that moves on with her original programming and ends up living for herself. She's caring and does not understand everything about humans, like I do.

Futaba on the other hand made me realize a lot about myself and my social anxiety, because for the first time I resonated so much with a fictional character. She definetly has autistic traits and helped me accept mine too. I really admire her and find her simply awesome.
