There's a lot of just... good answers here. So I'm pushing some answers moreso.
Zelda (Skyward Sword) Aang (Avatar: The Last Airbender) Milla Maxwell (Tales of Xillia) As much as I wanted to vote someone like Neo or Superman as well in this, I wanted to reiterate the whole "this is an incarnation of basically a god/goddess itself" and that's what I have. Could have put Korra just the same as Aang, but nah. Plus each of these characters had a state of hibernation, and "revival" --- I'll just go back to gifs. Not like the winner was gonna click my topic. https://imgur.com/SXyi7uX ... Copied to Clipboard!
