Not sure if we discussed this (if we did, it wasn't in detail), but does anybody consider Ran this?

Could you be more specific as to exactly what an anti-hero is?

an anti-hero? I've written him as one several times, but I don't really consider him one, it was just for the setting of the story.

Well an Anti-Hero sorta performs "heroic acts" in a way not considered "heroic". Here's a link to info: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti_heroYou have Remy? So have I I hope.

No, why? Like I said, the first few parts of the series he was but only due to the setting.

Oh dang sorry. That was for the other thing. The question thing was for the stories, but I remembered the ones you've sent me ^_^

Just go with it ^_^
Anyway. I guess I consider Randall this, from researching KH, since he DID try to make things better.

Well, looking at that definition, I'd say that, yes, Randall is an anti-hero in some ways, because he doesn't have all the common herioc qualities, yet he probably has performed some good acts in his life. Unfortunately, MI portraid him as an out-and-out villain.

Well it protrayed him. But from the details, we can clearly see such things.

In the film, Randall was really trying to do help himself more than anyone else, it seems, but he did show slight compassion towards Boo. But I'm unsure whether this gives the indication that he's an anti-hero.

Well he said he was "up all night" looking for Boo. This can be a clue to show he DOES care for Boo and WANTS to end the madness out there. Why search for her if there is NO connection to him and MI?
