Wow! That is a really difficult question to answer. There are so many. Obi-Wan, Asoka, C-3PO, Rey, Jane… But there can be only one…
All time favorite character in star wars is hands down Leia. She is a princess and a general. She is bad ass and sarcastic and is the role model that all little girls should be introduced to.

Jar Jar Binks – He brought so much humor into the Star wars movie. Love him.
Mesa likey Jar Jar binks…
Although, the new Porgs are awsome!
My favourite Star Wars character is Obi-Wan Kenobi.
As a kid, I would wear a robe after i came out of the bath, and my grandfather used to call me Obi-Wan Kenobi. used to think my grandfather was teasing me when he called me that name (he likes to rhyme you).
So when I watched Star Wars, I immediately fell in love with the character!

Anakin Skywalker
Yoda. Like me he is lean, mean and very green
(so exactly the opposite of me then)
My favourite character is Boba Fett because he’s such an underrated bounty hunter and deserves his own movie ???
Yoda!
Anakin Skywalker
Snaking Skywalker.
I’m for the good guys and all, but Darth Vader though… I mean “I am your father” will never get old. It’s ironic that the so-called “Darth Vader Breathing technique” helps with anxiety, but he causes anxiety himself. The guy only appeared for a few minutes in Rogue one, but still killed it. I absolutely LOVE Darth Vader!!
uughguughhhghghghhhgh uughguughhhghghghhhgh raaaaaahhgh aaaaahnr uughghhhgh
That is Wookie for Chewbacca is my favourite
Obi-wan Kenobi
BB8 or any of the Ewoks
Luke Skywalker
Darth Vader! “Be careful not to choke on your aspirations, Director.”
It’s got to be Yoda, R. I. P.
It has to be Rey! She has completely made herself part of the StarWars universe and she is such a strong female character
Han Solo
Jar jar has to be the best character ever!!!! Meesa say he legend. So underrated and those ear hair things… classic.
Yoda

General Organa
Chewbacca because he has been doing Movember for like forever!!!
I really like Ahsoka Tano, but my favourite character has to be Princess Leia.

Whaaaat not a single C-3PO in all the comments so far, man that’s sad he is such an underrated character but if you had to ask which is my favorite character then I would have to say Kyle Katarn because you get to choose his story in the Jedi Knight games (I wonder if he is still considered canon?).

Mace Windu
Leia Organa

Kanan Jarrus
R2D2
Princess Leia Organa of Alderaan .. She stands up to Vader in a way no-one else ever came close to. Also She has literally all the best oneliners ..
“You came in that thing?… You’re braver than I thought!”
“Would somebody get this big walking carpet out of my way?”
“Someone has to save our skins. Into the garbage chute, fly boy. ”
and the ultimate – “Why, you stuck up, half-witted, scruffy-looking, Nerf-herder!”
And she’s was still kicking ass 30 years later. #leilaRocks
Jar-Jar Binks ;)
Mace Windu
R2-D2
Chewbacca
I know this is gonna sound kinda weird, but I’ve always had a fascination with the Stormtroopers.
I’ve got stormtrooper figurines, t-shirts, even a wall canvas! xD
FIN!
Movies: Qui-Gon Jinn, True Grey Jedi
Series: Ashoka Tano! Awesome Lighsaber grip style
Games: Galen Marek, Starkiller
Lore: Revan!
Darth Vader

Rey is my favourite character! It’s so great to have a movie and Star Wars character that I can relate so closely to. She’s not a princess, she’s just tough and awesome! Leia is a very close 2nd though!
