Bad-Ass Anime Character of the Week

Has there ever been that one character that you saw, then thought to yourself, "that guy's a bad-ass"? No matter what situation he gets in, what enemies he faces, or what happens to their friends or their selves, they continues to fight on. This is their tribute.

Hei
Japanese (Chinese) Name: 黒
Anime: Darker than Black

If you take Batman, put him in china, and give him 20 thousand volts of electricity, the end result would be Hei. He arrives in town one day, under the alias of Li Shun Sheng, and he seems like a pretty regular guy. He walks around with a smile, greeting everyone, generally acting innocent. Except of course that he can down 20 bowls of ramen in one setting. Oh ya and he is actually the assassin codenamed BK-2O1 that the entire Japanese police force is after. The character for his name, 黒, is pronounced "Hei" in Chinese, meaning black. The same kanji is used in Japanese (pronounced kuro), and also appears in the Japanese title for the anime. In the OVA's, which take place between the first and second seasons, take him through some pretty tough shit. So much so, that during the second season he turns to heavy drinking and pedophilia. Sounds like a pretty cool guy. Still not convinced? When he meets an ability user who can stop hearts, he hits himself with a jolt, defibrillating himself. Let me see you try that.
