No Humor
Is it just me, or does FF12 seem to have almost no humor in it at all? I mean, the only laughs I've gotten so far are from things Balthier's said, as well as the awkward moment of silence when (SPOILER)Vaan rudely asked how old Fran was fifty years ago, as well as how everyone -- especially Larsa and Balthier -- reacted to it.

I'M CAPTAIN BASCH!
...
Basch,
It is a rather serious storyline, but it has its moments. It's not really like the others are comedies or anything, so I'm not sure where the expectation came from... IX and VI are the only two I really consistently laughed at I guess. The others, meh... XII is funnier than VIII or VII, those two are dark drama all the way.
BASCH LIVES!
Also,
"Way to go, Vaan."
"Can't you ever grow up?"
"That was quite rude."
But anyway, I don't think the premise of the story requires much humor.

You'll fall out of your seat when you see the main character.
Wait a minute...
There were some cute scenes with Balthier and Basch (yes, even Basch). Also, the Vaan moments others have mentioned.
There isn't a lot of humor in the game, but I don't think it hurts the story or anything like that.
Actually, that was . . .
"Nice, Vaan." (Balthier)
"Surprisingly rude." (Larsa)
"Try to grow up, please." (Penelo)
Only real part that made me laugh.

Rank VII Mob Hunt - Ancient Man of Mystery.
The Late Owen Macwere Production.
i thought "anciant man"was the hunter hunter.if ya know what i mean
(SPOILER)waha made you highlight
(SPOILER)I also liked the exchange during the ending between Vaan and Penelo after Vaan impersonates Larsa.
Also, how can we forget: 'You're the one who stinks, hamshanks. Hear me now?'
Wonderful.
any of the funny stuff is in the backround ussaly banter between vaan and penelo
I've never heard of hunter hunter.
The Late Owen Macwere Production.
It is kinda subtle. (SPOILER)At some point (I think after the Trickster hunt but I am not sure), Montblanc starts making comments about someone 'hunting' hunters, and tells you to be careful. During the hunt 'A Dark Rumor,' you find out who this 'hunter hunter' is, and defeat him (them).
I giggled at one part, especially.
[bigspoilers]When Balthier is fixing the Bahamut with Fran and he says something like "Fran, activate the whoo-za-whatzits" and he looks over and sees that Fran has been crushed by debris. Then he says "Must I do everything myself?"[/bigspoilers] XD
