Kakashi for me.

Like @Killman says, he's what a ninja should be.

But what I like most about him is that he went through arguably one of the most traumatic pasts in the series, but he never went rogue. He never turned into a villain. He was so unique in Naruto for being the only one who took these experiences and let them shape him to be better.

I know the Konoha 11 each had their own hard pasts, but I don't think any of them was as bad as Kakashi's besides maybe Naruto and Sasuke. And I'd argue his past was worse.

Kakashi just gets top spot for me because of his incredible emotional endurance. Also he's a badass shinobi with a cool personality.
