    I don't see how it's so unusual for Ashe to stay in control. It was an arranged marriage. She didn't know the guy.

    Terra, however, went through the ringer, acknowledged her emotions, and kept on fighting like hell anyways. Terra is worth ten thousand Ashes.

    This.

    This is why IMO Ashe is not the best female in the series because there is women characters like Terra hanging around.

    About the marriage she did love Prince Rasler. Who wouldn't ? He was like a attractive version of General Leo. But Ashe loved him before and after his death; very much so.

    Pot. Kettle. Black.

    Fair enough.
    I only used that scene as a example that Ashe doesn't completely control her emotions. So not really.

    You sure ? You're not going to bite on me for not thinking that Ashe is the best thing ever ?

    .... Oh wait....

    ...all of this applies to Ashe as well....

    Seriously, Ashe isn't the best written female in history or anything but the arguments against her in this thread are flimsy to say the least.

    You spin me right round baby right round...
    Let's try to keep this argument from just going in circles if possible.
    I fear that this could happen very soon, and it never ends well.

    Ashe is a great character, Terra is a great character. Noone here is trying to argue otherwise. There's no sense in arguing which is better because it's so largely subjective.
    Eyyyyyyyyyyyyy

    I saw it as like a debate at first. Whether Ashe really is the best female character in the series, but yeah it has headed into a argument.

    It's all a matter of opinion anyways.

    Actually, FFVI SpoilersTerra was pretty keen on not fighting and just leaving it to the other guys. If Humbaba never attacked the second time, she'd probably never have rejoined the fight and the rest of the heroes would have still been victorious at the end (although they probably would have died with Kefka without Terra to save them).

    As for this thread starting as a debate and ending up an argument: It actually started as a thread to discuss why Ashe is the best female character ever. Technically, every single time someone has posted something negative about this idea, they have been off topic. It's not to discuss why she is not, it's to discuss why she is. We've had similar threads for Sabin and Sephiroth and the naysayers were instructed to start a new thread if they wanted to debate it, as those threads were for appreciation rather than for a debate, and I think this thread falls in line with that.

    In short, let's start focusing on the positives.

    So you're overemotional when you slap someone that you're pretty sure killed your king and father?

    Yeah, I guess I am pretty over emotional too then.

    You can't destroy an entire argument because of one slapping of thine face. Given the context, if that went to court on a assault charge you'd be hard pressed to convict her.

    I really like Ashe. She had to put up with alot, really alot. And she came out great. Sure, she had those visions of Rastler but they were because of the occuria I think.

    Besides, she won best heroine. Enough said.
