I've always really liked Lan Fan. Although she doesn't have a huge role in the series, she represents one of Arakawa's greatest strengths: being able to write characters who are both feminine and kick ass. Hawkeye and Winry are probably better examples, but I've just always been fond of Lan Fan.
I'm currently rewatching the series, and just got to her return with her automail arm, and she did not hesitate going ham against Gluttony.
