[_yeojina_]

His name is not ripped off from some soccer player.

Good point.

Heis Vivi!!!

Why? Because Vivi is so darn cute. And he waddles. That's enough to win my heart. <3

*Hugs Miriel*

I find it very suprising that so many people like Vivi. I, myself, cannot stand him. Zidane and Vivi both are terrible characters, but if I had to choose one or the other I would choose Zidane. Both suck though.

Quina is the best in this game. She simply rules. No way around it.

Quina doesn't have gender and it scares me. But I like him/her anyway.

I just didn't like Zidane that much. I prefer a more tortured and withdrawn hero over the cocky and arrogant ladies' man.

you mean, a typical final fantasy main character such as cloud and squall. i like that cocky attitude personally. its more..."cool" i guess. while the people from square tried to make cloud and squall's attitude way too cool to the point that it gets annoying. zidane is cocky, yet clumsy with the ladies. but then again, very heroic.

Vivi was a kind-hearted character, but to me he also fit the bill of the character facing the toughest problems - was he even real? Did his actions really count?

doesnt zidane and vivi have similar problems?...theyre both "created" and both made for destruction. vivi and the black mages are no different from zidane and genomes.

Vivi knows his problem at the age of 9 (Kids!) and know it before Zidane. Vivi is down and goes emo but not terribly emo like Zidane in Terra.

Why Vivi is more popular then Zidane? Why Squall is more popular then Zidane? Why Cloud is more popular then Zidane?

Because they are emo. For some reason, almost all the FF fans, prefer emo characters instead of "happy" characters, like Zidane or Laguna.

Zidane is emo (more emoer than Cloud and Squall) in Terra.

Personally I disliked Vivi. There you are, trying to save every peasant in the area while fighting your way through turn taking monsters who don't really care to attack anyone else who isn't already done for, worrying about whoever has run off/disappeared and/or whatever nefarious plots the villains have going on, and he has to bring up his whole issue about existing and no matter what you say, he's always down about it. I know he highlights the game's theme, but he's always so gloomy and emotionally needy and well, I didn't particularly care. Zidane and Quina stole my emotional character attatchment for the game. You have to (well not necessarily) like a guy who still manages to be upbeat despite the fact he's surrounded by some of the most depressing people on the planet 24/7, not getting paid, laid or even praised.

Vivi is younger than Zidane and he's still growing. Both Zidane and Vivi leads a sad life. But Zidane got more attention than Vivi (Tantalus), Vivi only has his grandpa (Useless >.<). Both of them never know their problem until the event of the game, Vivi knows it before Zidane. Because of his immatureness, he's down all the time (But sometimes up). Zidane is a lot mature (Well, he's 16). But look at what happened to him in Terra, even Cloud and Squall could not match his emoness. Vivi knows his problem but not too emo like Zidane when he knows his problem.

Quina is emotionless, he/she only thinks about food.

Yeah, but he had one hell of a reason.

Black Waltz #3 is the best character.

vivi is just really likeable and is a very good character. its very hard to hate him but i guess people can look past all the character and personality, development and just say its so cute!!

black waltz 3 is a good enemy and definetly has some of the best scenes on the game as well as the funny look on his face before he's blown up.

why is vivi more popular than zidane??

I ask myself the same question every time I look at FFIX. Vivi is overrated imho, most of the time he constantly stays worried about existence, but no body can control existence so why worry about what you can't control? Zidane is a more carefree individual, he thinks about his purpose of existence, what Garland thinks it should be, but Zidane knows the only thing that matters is his purpose for existence according to him.

OMG ZNG ARE BACK!

Vivi is a small child. Nobody can dislike a small child. Except Eiko. I HATE HER. Whereas you can dislike Zidane withoput feeling guilty about it

[Darth Cid]

you can dislike Zidane withoput feeling guilty about it

What makes you say that, out of curiousity? If you mean you can Zidane dislike because he's older, yes, there is a innocence Vivi has in his apeearence, Zidane can never copy. I look at how Zidane led the group more than his appearence so I don't know.

[No.78]

I used to like Vivi, but then everyone else liked him, so I stopped and decided I wasn't going to like him because he's nearly always sad. *takes off his hat, watches his body float away in the form of a black mist* BWAHAHAH

[Fate Fatale]

I thought most of the other characters were annoying. I only like Quina, Vivi, Eiko, and Garnet... Mog too.
