Lighthearted? I think the only clear answer is Final Fantasy VI
Kefka's coming, look intimidating!
Have a nice day!!
In regards to what happens story wise i'd say VIII, just wasn't as tradegic as some of the others and all main characters live happily ever after
I think FF V is more light-hearted than IX. To be honest, IX seemed pretty "in the middle" on that bar.
FFX-2, definitely.
Of course it's a bit depressing if you just rush from Hotspot to Hotspot until Chapter 5 and everyone's all like MY PROBLEM WASN'T FIXED and you get an unsatisfying ending.
Can't see this, sorry.FFIX, some of it was very, very corny; the romance between Zidane and Garnet was arguably the cheesiest and least substantive in the series.
Zidane and Garnet were the best FF romance. Their characters weren't sacrificed for the relationship and they both grew as the game progressed. Only when they had matured did they finally admit their feelings.
As it should be.
The least substantive was easily Squall and Rinoa.
Guado genocide anyone?Not taking sequels into consideration, I'd say FFIX. It was just such a wonderfully amusing game.
Though it's still pretty dark if you look up suff about the Crimson Squad. Like how every single person went insane and killed each other save for Paine and co..
The Den of Woe was an awesome area.
I can agree with Bolivar, their romance still comes across flat, especially since Dagger spends most of the game more concerned about her problems than romance that when she finally goes into the whole "i wuv u" spiel it comes across a bit fake. Granted, its much better done in this title than say... VIII or X but that's really not saying much...
True beauty exists in things that last only for a moment.
Current Mood: And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe. Maybe this year will be better than the last. I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself. To hold on to these moments as they pass...
I don't see what's so fake about it. She has a lot of stuff on her mind that's more important than love.
When she finally lets herself "be free" by cutting her hair, she starts contemplating other things and discovers the feelings she's built up towards Zidane.
There relationship comes across very one sided and I never felt Dagger showed much interest in Zidane and his advances. Really, their love story is very similar to Squall and Rinoa's except Dagger at least seems to get along with Zidane. I just feel she's like Squall and comes across very detached for most of the game and then suddenly its like like BAM! I love him. I don't feel the game really builds up their feelings like they should have. Dagger comes across too serious and "business as usual" and thus I feel even when the game tries to hint she might like him it comes across more as a friend or mentor instead of actual affection.
The only thing that saves it from VIII's fate is that Dagger still remains mostly unchanged whereas Squall turns into a love sick puppy and loses a lot of his bad ass/ jerk appeal. Its still one of the better love stories in the series but I personally feel the FF series usually does a pretty shallow and generic love story overall in the series.

Well Final Fantasy in general doesn't sport the best plots around. They do a decent-to-good job when it comes to narrative and love stories but that's about it.
I think IX had the best overall romance and story in general so I'm probably just biased.
"It is a well-known fact that all heroes in all tales disliked vegetables as children.
Their legend begins with their overcoming of this weakness, and then continues with a journey filled with hardships.
That noble vegetable, the onion, lives on as a symbol of hardships overcome, and as the mark of a true hero."
Hmm, probably X-2. It was just too hyper and happy. Other than that, probably V. Some of the quotes made me laugh out loud.

Jack: How do you know?
Will: It's more of a feeling really.
Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?
Will: No.

Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
Huxley: NO!
Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
Huxley: You need to leave, John.
Spartan: But Huxley.
Huxley: Get out!
Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.
By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.
