I find myself liking all character designs in XIII, at least, as far as your party goes. Not so sure about the badguys, but that's okay, we only need to beat em up, not love them.

I like Vanille best, though. With her, it's not "BELTS BELTS BELTS" but "BRACELETS BRACELETS BRACELETS" and "JEWELRY JEWELRY JEWELRY". Which is fine with me.
