For me is baymax, the disney character.

Since I saw the movie for the first time I felt identified with said robot, I'm an engineering student, and also very chubby, i like to hug and to care for others too, not very agile or fast too.

A bit obscure, but Jeremy Goodwin on Sports Night (which should've been on for more than two seasons). His mannerisms, difficulty picking-up on non-verbal cues, deep interest on nerdy topics, and lack of confidence in navigating career progression...it's (almost) creepy how closely we mirror each other.
