    My Garnet was never exactly high-leveled, but I think what really puts people off of Eiko is having to level her up and get her basic skills that others learned long ago. (Though I'd bet my FF9 disc 4 that Flamethrower's guessed correctly in the case of some gamers.)

    I am alive I will never run away Places inside My heart screams inside with pride Once I cried Now I wipe away the tears Once I died Now I'm alive

    --Alive (Korn)

    And we sneak a call And we're like thieves I love the times like these Just don't say goodbye Just won't you please I'm trying to do the right thing

    All my life I was in the cold Now I find I feel nothing more Leave me to learn Leave me to hurt Now I'm not so invincible

    --Invincible (Static-X)

    No questions: Vivi is the best!
    But why he can't cast ULTIMA .
    Doomsday is cool too, but I always like Ultima.
    Interesting question: Who else than Kuja can cast "Flare Star"?
    Only thous who connect with darkness can be immortal. Nothing can stop darkness and shadows.
    The greather light is, the bigger shadows become.

    Just a theory.

    Your theory, like UW said, probably does hold true under many circumstances. While actual effectiveness in battle holds more worth than anything, it's hard to completely ignore the aesthetic appeal altogether. Hormonal teens will likely find appeal in Garnet, no doubt.

    Personally, however, in the case of Garnet vs. Eiko, I'll take Eiko anyday as a result of her battle animation (Garnet looks like she's on a dirtbike in a whoops section on a motocross track), as well as the nice sound effect caused by her flute. I look more at the way the character moves than the overall physical look of their player model. Polygonal models on the original playstation are relatively lacking in detail, anyway, in comparison to those found on the current generation systems, or even those found on the N64.

    yeah, using dagger cuz you think she's hot is terrible reason. the battle graphics in 9 are not the best ive noticed.
