Well, they do have a huge bar on their airship, in spite of only having seven crew, including one kid and the bartender himself...

I kinda like the comparison to the original trio. Sure, each character's personality is wildly different from their 'counterpart', but they fulfil the same kind of role - Rikku embodies Jecht's spontaneity and sense of fun, Yuna shares her father's kindness and determination, and Paine has some measure of Auron pragmatism and sarcasm.

The only similarity to Charlie's Angels is that there are three women who do stuff and fight.
