Emotionless Characters
It's such a weird niche that seems out of place but for some reason I love it and I'm wondering if there's a lot more like the one's I've seen. To give you an idea these are some of the characters that I think of.
Hei-Darker Than Black Yukihira-Noucome Hakuya-Mikakunin de Shinkoukei Yuki Nonoka-Shinmai Maou no Testament Are names I can think of off the top of my head as examples. Something about emotionless characters gets to me. When they tell a joke with a straight face, albeit most of the time a really bad one or when they show emotion at a rare time, that's what generally makes me feel more for that character. That and most of the time they're pretty badass P.S I don't really specify a genre but if possible action is good or a comedy with some romance (not over the top)

A classic emotionless character in my opinion is Nagato Yuki from the Suzumiya Haruhi franchise.
And yes - she is about as OP as they come, too. The anime adaptation of the source novels is mostly comedic, but it has plenty of serious moments as well - although the infamous "Endless 8" run may make you want to break things. (The recent "Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan" adaptation is quite different, by the way, and a literary spin off of the Suzumiya Haruhi novels - it would not really fit the bill for what you are looking for in the thread itself.)

I guess you could count some characters from Claymore. Clare is not the most talkative one, Irene is quiet stotic as well.
As far as I remember, Lulu Bell was emotionless one is D.Gray Man but she appears much later in the series and has slightly limited screen time. Naru from Ghost Hunt should be to your liking. It is ghost series but really good and Naru has stoic face for biggest part of the series. Kinda reminds me of Hei Oreki from Hyouka, not exactly emotionless but he is so lazy he could care less about anything. Slice of life series. Homura from Madoka Magica. Gowther from Nanatsu no Taizai suits the bill if you want action and comedy. He has no emotions whatsoever and can read minds, so yeh... Ein from Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom, series are slightly similar to DTB Shiina Mashiro from Sakurasō no Pet na Kanojo, great comedy with some romance. Aika from Zetsuen no Tempest, she is not exactly emotionless but she has particular view on things. She is dead from get go but appears in lots of flashbacks and whole series kinda revolve around her.

Admittedly, I haven't watched the anime itself, and I understand that changed a lot of things, but why hasn't Tatsuya from Mahouka koukou no Rettousei been mentioned yet? One of the most emotionless characters there is, as well as being insanely OP.
