OK, let's test your anime knowledge! I'll post a character and then you have to name the character and the anime he/she is from. After that, you post one as well for the next person.
We'll start with this one:

Wouldn't have a clue. Obviously it's something by Osamu Tezuka.

I am going to take a very wild guess and say the dude TheSubtleDoctor posted is from Captain Harlock.

I am going to jump in because, now that I think about it, that one is a bit unfairly obscure for CAA. It is Cosmo Yuuki, the main protagonist from Yoshiuki Tomino's 1980-81 super robot drama Space Runaway Ideon, a show that was supposedly a big influence on Eva.

Now, for an image from a show other people actually watched =).

Yeah, but I'm wrong with my first guess. It's actually the movie guy (interviewer, uh, Genya I think his name is) from Millennium Actress. I just finished rewatching it.

I-- I wanted to answer that one. It would make me feel cool because I'm probably the only person here who has actually seen that show. :<

I have no idea who or what that is, Midori.

I'm watching it, slowly, and mostly in the hope that Be Invoked is as good as a friend said it is.

Pretty sure that is Makoto from Ghost Hound (if that is his name?).

This one is pretty obvious, but...
