Lao Zi in Saiyuki ( Fuji TV 2006 version)

Hey, this character rocks !

He's like a heavenly Judge Dredd, but a lot campier, and so funny and weirdly cool as well. He's a squirt of an old fart heavenly god, who travels with his heavenly marshalls to bring the villians to trial, once the Saiyuki team have caught them.

Lao Zi is portrayed as a drama-mama with a preference for stylised exaggerated gestures befitting a heavenly deity, and although he wiggles his bottom a bit, he welcomes the attention of the young ladies, more as a point of vanity, than orientation.

Combined with his heavenly powers, his mannerisms both outrage and evoke laughter. The best character in the series so far.
