Nearly everything Sephiroth attempted was foiled eventually, while that isn't the case with other villains.
Why do you ignore his malice of breaking Cloud's mind? Why do you ignore his holding back of Holy, proving that his will was even stronger than the Planet's? Why do you ignore the chaos caused by the Weapons and Meteor? Why do you ignore the fact that, from the beggining of the story, he already wanted to: break Cloud's mind, summon Meteor, regenerate his body, and merge with Jenova, and that in the end,
he succeeded in doing all that? Why do you ignore that he is the FF villain with the biggest number of oposition(The main party, the whole world's government(Shinra), and even the living planet!)?
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying he is the best FF villain ever, or the most successful, or the strongest, or blah blah blah, etc, etc.
I just think that we shouldn't forget or ignore his accomplishments.
