made some very painful experiences, but doesn't show it most of the time. He should not be exactly cheerful, you have to somehow notice somethings not right. Sometimes I want to see that that he's still suffering from that, be it because of something he says (would prefer it to be subtle) or because of his expression (when something reminds him of that).
What I want is a main character who is usually... well, maybe carefree, but sometimes you can see his pain^^ He mustn't be completely over it!
Can be anime or manga, I prefer manga though.
Examples I can think of would be Gintoki (Gintama), Ryner (Densetsu no Yuusha no Densetsu), Kenshin (Rurouni Kenshin), Rin (Ao no Exorcist), also Train (Black Cat) kinda fits too^^
Please nothing like Naruto...
