Millions Knives, from Trigun.
The full depth an complexity of his character is never shown in the anime (a lot of the important flashbacks are but there is a great deal that wasn't completed at the time of the anime so you really miss a great deal). After having completed the manga a few years ago (with the real ending, not the vague out of place ending from the anime) it becomes very easy to be sympathetic of him.
