Lightning is the worst character in the history of Final Fantasy

i rlly like lightning ^^ dunno wy... but i just like her
my favorite character from FF13 is Hope though^^ hes cute :P and i like his voice =) it just totaly fits him

I think you're talking about Shadow from FF6.

Lightning is the greatest character ever. She is finally a female who isn't afraid to kick some ass to get where she wants, much like Ashe was (who also rules). I loved that she tried so hard to be stoic but her real feelings came out when Hope was in danger.

This. I really don't see how anyone could dislike Lightning. One of my reasons for sticking with this game.

I dunno about WORST CHARACTER EVER, but she's not as memorable as the older protagonist. On the other hand, characters in X & XII were pathetic. Not all of them, but reading some of the other comments I'm sure you guys know who. Lightning makes them look like a steaming pile!

IMO, Balthier is quite underrated.

i thought lightning was brilliant eerything from the way she talked,acted,fought and looked (loved the red cape hanging down one side) all the above mentioned seem to fit with her past and why she was like that i think people would disslike her more she kept runnin round asking if people where alright or if they needed to blow there nose.

Did you heard and saw Vanille? Or Hope? Now those two are godawful.

Probably a thread worth putting to bed. If you want to continue discussing Lightning, or any characters, feel free to start a new thread! I think these debates are good ones actually! Critiquing character is awesome.
