An Anti-hero is sort of a character who doesn't fit the stereotypical mold of the word hero. For example, Prince Charming is a hero in the most convential terms. Slayed the dragon, is pure of heart, gets the girl, etc. An anti-hero may take uncouth routes to get to a heroic ending. Maybe questionable, unorthodox methods used. Another example: in OUATiW, Alice was the hero, but Will was the Anti-Hero.
