I'd argue that Terra is better, she has a higher magic stat (second best in the game), better natural spell selection, and her Trance is infinitely more useful. She can make better uses of the flail weapons and she can equip all the game breaking armor and weapons.
Their only difference statistically is that Terra has higher magic power and M.Block but their physical is almost identical and considering that Celes needs swords to use Runic and Runic in of itself is useless in a game that makes magic unforgivably overpowered, I feel Terra has the edge with special. Trance for instance, is just horribly overpowered until the end of the game where esper building and super weapons make it obsolete in terms of its damage output but its defensive output makes Terra a near indestructible tank so its not entirely useless even in endgame, its just ludicrous.
