Mana of Moi Dix Mois/Malice Mizer, Kyo of Dir En Grey, Anthony Hopkins, Gary Oldman, Quentin Tarantino.
I learned about the Gothic Lolita subculture when I heard about j-pop years ago, but it's the more aggressive j-rock styles that I like more.. Most of this stuff sounds like it came straight out of anime, and is all in a language that is unfamiliar to the common American ear, but nonetheless, anyone with an open mind can enjoy it for the art that it is.
I also love blues, some jazz and, big band swing.
Of course, I'm into my hardcore. I grew up listening to local bands from the Sheepshead Bay/Brighton Beach area, where Brooklyn Hardcore still thrives to this day.. i remember sneaking into L'amours when I was 15...
And there's my darkwave, new wave, and 80's that I still enjoy from time to time...

This list is not so much my "heroes," but more like people I respect:People I know: My kids, for putting up with me; Stryder, for dealing with me and my kids; Goddess Rosemary, for being an exceptional woman and a true example of wisdom, beauty and grace; "El Diablo Guapo". People I wish I knew: Mana, guitarist from one of my favorite japanese bands; Alex from "A Clockwork Orange;" Dr. Hannibal Lecter; the "Charmed" Ones.
