Why Bean? See here for my answer. ;) He's perfect and yet so imperfect at the same time. Also, that scene where he went in to ask Graff for equipment, and made him look stupid in front of Dap and Dimak: "Right. Take the best student you ever had here and put him in jail because he asked for access to the supply closet and you didn't like it. Come on, Colonel Graff. Swallow hard and back down. You need my cooperation more than I need yours." Priceless. It just about sums up everything else. XD

Why Bean? I'm not sure. I think it's because I've been like him when I was child: short and clever. I believed it. Now I don't think so (about me).

Why Bean? What is there to NOT like about him? He's supersmart, and..and...a genius! I like his sarcasm and the way he can just make someone go crazy by being better than them. :P Yep, so that pretty much sums it up.

Why Bean? Bean. Wow, he's just so amazing. I can relate to him so perfectly that it's funny. We both have always had that one person who is smarter or better than us, for him Ender, for me a very interesting friend. We aren't very good people-persons, yet everyone seems to know us. When reading about him, I feel this very strong hypothetical connection between the two of us, even though if you think about it we are really different. I mean, I'm not a super-genius, or genetically altered, I never grew up on the streets and was never remotely short/tall. Regardless, I feel as if he is just like me, almost a counterpart. I use a lot of his techiniques in my everyday life, especially his "Know, Think, Choose, Do" one. Very effective when used correctly. All in all, Bean is like a brother to me...not a role model or friend, but a brother.

Why Bean? I love Bean because he thinks in ways others don't, because he's exceptionally precocious and because he reminds me of myself.

Why Bean? Bean is really the most interesting character in the series. He knows he is the most intelligent being on the planet, but gets so little credit in Ender's Game. It is in Ender's Shadow, Shadow of the Hegemon, and Shadow Puppets that Bean is finally shown for what he really is. But the most captivating thing about Bean, is how he matures throughout the Shadow series...what else can I say? Bean is one of the most memorable literary characters I have come across.

Why Bean? His intelligence and attitude . And besides, Ender takes him as him old self and treats him as the generals treated him in order to be the best.

Li: USA; @ www
Why Bean? I... really can't explain that. A lot of little things--like I like and can empathize with his survivalist attitude, being treated differently for being small and smart, having non-standard emotional reactions, etc. But really it's not any of that in particular... I just like him.

Christel: USA; @

Why Bean? He is unbelievably smart, yet realistically flawed. He is the most realistic fictional character ever.
