Try Hyde or Gordeau. They're straightforward and good.

Every character other than Hilda, Seth and Yuzuriha is a perfectly viable choice for a beginner. Those three have incredibly high execution barriers, each in a different way.

Play who you like, then just work with them.

How about Wagner?

She's a decent pick. While having short reach, she's got enough mobility to compensate for it. She has viable mix-up options and plays pretty smoothly. You do want to explore which block-strings are safe though, because her specials are pretty easy to punish on block.

Correction, she's somewhere in the middle regarding reach. Her buttons reach further than Mika, Akatsuki or Enkidu, but she can be outpoked by Gordeau, Phonon or Hilda. She can punish long pokes with 214A. 214C is projectile-invincible and reaches further than Orie's 41236C.

Chaos and Vatista as well...

I can relate with this.

Chaos, Hilda, Yuzu are characters you shouldn't play to begin with.

Chaos for his Pet.
Hilda because, she will never give you the basics and has incredible bad defence.
And Yuzus execution requirement is very high.

The rest should be fine. I personaly played years back Uniel and learned the game with Eltnum, later I played Yuzu.
Now I'm back to Eltnum, cause it is just to much fun to shot people in the face.
And comboing into Airthrows is in general a fun idea.

Play whoever you like the most. If you are undecided, picked one of the candidates and play them until you fall in love or end up not liking it and in that case switch to the next one.
Some characters that would be considered "newbie accesible" may get you better results earlier but that's it. In the end you should always go for the ones you like regardless. If the character you choose is too hard or complicated for you then you won't like playing it anyway. So just follow your heart.
