Alrighty we have a tie if anyone wants to be a tie breaker within the next little while. In the meantime, here are our next two rounds:

bracket one, from Final Fantasy XII


VS


Okay this is a FF forum so I'm assuming most of you are familiar with these characters. They are sky pirates who run in to Vaan and try to steal the thing he is stealing, eventually get caught up in a whole thing with Princess Ashe, and Balthier takes a pretty central story role while Fran serves more as his backup. Also the camera focuses on Fran's butt. Like, a lot. And a lot of people find Balthier sexy. This is a sexy duo, is what I'm saying.

Bracket two we have from Suikoden III


VS

Her boyfriend, Franz, is thought of as a suck-up and a sell-out because he has conformed to the ways of their conquerors in the hopes of becoming first class citizens. Iku is a peaceful person and she cares deeply about everyone, including Franz, even if they have conflicting ideas sometimes. She helps the party at one point in the story and is possible to recruit to the army, although she is missable and does not take part in battles.

She's an archer with an Earth Rune, which is support magic mostly. She is the Tenyu Star, also known as the Guardian Star
