If giving an example other than Fuwa, there's also someone like Masamune, who is a depraved bastard, but is also someone who won't stop no matter how much he gets his ass kicked by the invincible Rider. Being determined varies a lot, what are they determined at? Determined at accomplishing selfish goal no matter how much people would dislike that and try to stop you, would be one too.

It's not just Isamu's determination that's admirable about him though. His worst flaws are probably his impulsiveness and prejudice, but even at this point, he only targets the rogue HumaGears who turn in to Magias and he does treat them as people in a way by getting mad at them, unlike Yua who mostly shows them cold contempt. I guess he could still qualify as a mild antihero, but he totally has a fair amount of genuinely heroic traits.
