Oh god, what is he/she/it wearing?!

[Skyblade]

Actually, Yuna uses Tidus' Caladbolg as her sword in the Dark Knight dress sphere, just as she uses the Brotherhood as a Warrior (she also uses Tidus's attack animation and victory pose, IIRC). Rikku uses Auron's Masamune as a Dark Knight.

A lot of the weapons in X-2 came from X. As a Black Mage, Yuna uses her Nirvana. Black Mage and White Mage weapons for all the characters are versions of Yuna's weapons from X. As Samarui, Rikku and Yuna both use weapons that Auron used in X. As a Warrior, Rikku uses another of Tidus' weapons. Paine gets the most unique weapons, which makes sense, as she never knew the rest of the team.

[Forsaken Lover]

Hm. You're right.


Guess I just projected my hate for Rikku's weapon onto the others. My bad.

After some consideration, what Cloud and Sephiroth are wearing in the original game is really lame. It looks like Cloud is in pajamas, and Sephiroth is in some long black skirt thing. Then again, graphics. But yeah. Impressions that I get from this stuff.

[champagne supernova]

I couldn't agree more BG. Tifa is one of my all-time favorite FF characters and she spent over 10 years being branded a slut who was out to steal Cloud from perfect, virginal Aerith (yeah, right).
I'm so glad they finally rectified that in AC.

I quite liked Yuna's X-2 outfit, except for the incredibly tiny hot-pants. Slighter longer shorts would've looked way better.

I always preferred Tifa to Aerith. I think my first play through, I got the Tifa date. Maybe it's because she was the childhood sweetheart and I'm soft. Or because her boobs are bigger than Aerith's. Who knows? It was a long time ago.

The Dirge of Cerberus outfits are RIDICULOUS. On many levels. And inappropriate too. But as I don't believe in the existence of the add-ons to Final Fantasy, I cannot single one out.

Cid as a banana in VI is also pretty bad. Kuja (not that he's around much) is also not great. Garnet has a fire in the middle of his chest, which I'm sure must be inconvenient.

How does one narrow this down to the worst. It had to come from X-2. LeBlanc.



It is not physically possible for her bits to remain clothed if she so much as moves.

[BG-57]

Maybe that would explain why she likes Nooj so much: they both have horrible fashion sense. There's not much of any other reason given in-game.

All the same, I like Leblanc; she may dress like a Las Vegas showgirl, but it somehow suits her over-the-top diva personality.

EDIT: Three words: double-sided tape.

How has no one mentioned Squall yet? No one needs that many belts. Seriously. Unless he was trying to ward Seifer away from his crotch, but still.

[Laddy]

I actually really really really like Squall's Dissidia outfit.

Tidus is bad. All of FFX-2 is bad. A lot of FVII is bad.

[Chris]

FFX is my favorite, but like many of you, it's like they let a monkey design the outfits for the characters. Tidus' look is a hot mess, and Seymour is just wrong. That being said, I think Vincent from FFVII takes the cake. The whole emo vampire look is dated, even for 1997.

[PeneloRatsbane]

It grosses me out that he didn't get changed after 30 years of sleeping in those hideous clothes.
Lucrecia must have put them on him, shes a freaky chick, choosing clothes remniscient of his dead daddy's.

[blackmage_nuke]

Im not sure if anyone will agree but I hate Zidane's frilly collar.

[Mirage]

What are you talking about, Laddy?
There's so much pretty in FFX-2!

[Iceglow]

How has no one mentioned Squall yet? No one needs that many belts. Seriously. Unless he was trying to ward Seifer away from his crotch, but still.

I'll counter this and also prove why he needed so many belts (which was 3 btw, 1 around his waist, 2 looped over his hips)

Firstly to counter...you say he had too many belts but how many people didn't complain about Lulu's dress in X? She had more belts than I've even owned in my lifetime in fact the only thing that made the front of her dress was belts!

Secondly to explain. If you watch in the game, Squall hangs his gunblade from his belts. I would assume there is some kind of sheath we the player never (but probably should see) same goes for all of them except Zell who uses his fists. When their weapons are away it would be cool to see holsters/sheathes/pouches/loops the weapons are kept on (the reason for this not happening is obviously to reduce the stress on the game having to display the model of the weapon constantly in fact the first we really ever see of something like this is in XII even then I don't recall actually seeing holsters or sheathes the weapons merely hung from their hips/backs with invisible glue) I figure the 2 extra belts looped around serve two purposes 1) to hold ammunition for the gun blade 2) to support the weight of the weapon and hold it in such a position that Squall can still walk without tripping everything over with the end of his sword. The third belt around his waist is obviously just for his trousers to stay up. The 4th "thigh belt" or strap is either related to the gunblade sheath again or else purely for additional ammo/maybe an equipment pouch.

Worst costume in an FF game to me goes for Odine because he was basically wearing a tribute to Kefka but had nothing in relation to Kefka as a character. It made him look merely stupid and didn't fit with his role in the game.

[Mirage]

I complained about Lulu's belts. Your argument is invalidated!

[Raistlin]

In addition to some of those already mentioned (Tidus, especially), FF1's Dr. Unne wears an orange onesie:

[Wolf Kanno]

I feel its safe to say that Spira is not ravaged by Sin but also by a fashion disaster. Its like the beach version of Roadwarrior except without the violent motorcycle gangs and Mel Gibson. Just outfits that feel like hodge podges of different clothing and fabrics thrown together.

This is not to say the rest of the series isn't without its faults. For the sprite entries, I'm giving it to FFV, cause I feel the sprites for the five main characters are just atrocious and while they are vastly improved in the Amano designs, the same can't be said of the Dawn warriors who have some seriously questionable outfits...
