Lines like "But what fun is destruction if no precious lives are lost?", "You sound like chapters from a self-help booklet", and "There's nothing like the sound of thousands of voices screaming in unison" sum up just what Kefka is and how much we like him.

It's my personal theory that Kefka and Celes are related somehow, but too bad the game never gives much depth. However, we don't need too much depth to our beloved villain, really. At least it doesn't end up getting totally misunderstood like Sephiroth's. He's got his fans because of what he does. Doma Castle, for instance. Just messing with the statues shows he's positively insane.

I mean, come on. Sephiroth tried to slam Meteor into the planet. But Kefka actually blew the damn thing up!! No, it didn't explode, but we don't have anymore grass on the planet. And we got to keep a decent overworld theme. And he's dressed as a clown!! That all makes him evil. And it makes him a damn good villain.

My point is... Kefka, you're amazing and we love you.
