Who do you think is the best/coolest leader?

By best i do NOT mean mechanics, i mean best by aesthetics , lore or looks.

To me Confucius is the greatest. Old man just looks so badass and the way he treats others is even more badass. He gives off the insanely wise old man, who holds up both arms respectfully when being friendly with others. And when hostile, while other leaders go crazy with threats and waving their fists or weapons, this dude just quietly listens to their rant, then just quietly gives them a "fist and palm salute" still showing respect, a calm demeanour while giving off a vibe of "you are so ♥♥♥♥ now".

I like Napoleon, he has funny body language (and verbal language). From the point he arrives to the moment he exits the stage (I've had to oust him a few times now) is magnanimous.

Harriet Tub... oh... wait... no sorry, just a joke ^^

Napoleon is a good one. Love the way he talk. I also like both Ashokas and Himikos.

Machiavelli looks like the actor from the TV show bing bang theory.

Amina’s sword is really cool, like an oversized heavy metal pizza slice. Imagine swinging that thing, with the weight ratio and such!

Sadly none. I find myself quite disappointed by the leader's presentation this time around. In Civ 5 they usually weren't very expressive, but had magnificent setpieces. In Civ 6 they lost the setpieces but were very expressive with a lot of spoken lines. Philip II especially was just joy to watch.

Civ 6 doesn't have setpieces, very little spoken lines (with peace deal dialogue being just wrong), and far less expressive leaders. They pretty much start and end in the (excellent) leader selection scenes.

'tis early days, I haven't even met all of them yet, but none impressed me much so far.

I like Hatshepsut and Xerses a lot!
