    Default Quina Is More Than Comic Relief

    Well, to most people Quina is nothing more but comic relief, and some don't even count her/him as a being part of the group. Is this really fair? I mean, s/he is very come-and-go, but Zidane genuinely seems to care about what Quina's doing and if s/he is safe. Is this just a part of Zidane's good nature? To me, s/he is every bit as much a part of the group as the rest.

    What do you think? Do you consider Quina as a genuine part of the group?

    Nope. And I never play with It, either. I always hate when I'm forced to use Quina. It literally serves no other purpose than to get you Fossil Roo.

    I love Quina, but I think it's not really in his/her nature to really be "part" of the group, because s/he never really cares about their purpose. S/he goes with them because it suits his/her own purposes.

    I never liked Quina. S/he's obnoxious as a character to the point that I think everyone who loves her is just teamed up to troll the hell out of me (sorry Rantz). Mechanically Quina is a Blue Mage and I love Blue Mages... so long as their method for gathering skills doesn't involve tedium in a battle system that is already too slow for its own good.

    File me away in the thumbs-down to Quina category.

    I agree with FA. I don't understand why everyone thinks Quina is so cool. It's annoying.

    Also, I hate blue mages.

    Quina she's the stuff, but I have to disagree with Chris about Zidane caring about her because as I recall Zidane didn't want her to go the Iifa Tree with them and completely forgot about her after the event/ I remember her telling Zidane how she had to cross the ocean and fight a whole bunch of monsters and the only thing Zidane said was "damn" or something to that extent. He gave no mention about her either when she was left on Cleyra and then when he's teamed up with her in the Earth Shrine he said that "he was left with the leftovers".

    It's kinda depressing how they don't care about each other. Quina comes along with everyone but if Quina ever gets lost it's like "where's quina? meh oh well." But if it was anyone else, say vivi, "OMG WHERE'S VIVI OMG OMG OMG"

    I normally hate Blue Mages, and hated quina for the longest time but now that i'm forcing myself to use him/her on my walkthrough I'm starting to like him/her better.

    She's quite unlike anything I've ever seen.


    I...I think I'm in love...

    I love Quina! To me, s/he adds a nice spark to the cast.

    You are all wrong. Except the ones who like Quina.

    I enjoy using Quina. Everything from the blue magic to the comic relief to the food related scenes are fantastic.

    "You have problem!?"

    I seriously love all of Quina's lines. This is one of my absolute favorites:



    "F-frog... Is talking. Maybe I eat it?"

    I love how s/he turns around and begins to philosophize about whether or not s/he should eat it. Kills me each and every single time.

    Oh yeah, and the fact that she considered to eat Eiko.
