Let's discuss why Ashe is the best female character ever...

Except slapping the person you think is responsible for your father's death is a bit less emotionally charged than blowing up reactors.

That's not the point here. The point here that was Ashe was completely calm and she was unable to completely control her emotions. But she doesn't.

Again Tifa saw what she was doing was wrong and she changed her ways.

Tifa is way more over-emotional than Ashe was and Ashe was dealing with a lot more than her or Selphie.

Tifa lost all of her villagers her friends her family her Father and she mostly would of seen people slaughtered and massacred right in front of her eyes. Selphie is a child solider and again she looses quite alot of people that she knew thanks to Edea and Seifer destroying her "home " we see in Trabia by the grave site her emotionally upset but trying to remain tough speaking to the friends that she lost during the missile attack. Not to mention she feels responsible for their deaths because she couldn't stop the missile's in time. That's alot of trout for a seventeen year girl to go through.



Tifa becomes a Mother to Denzel and Marlene and realizes that her revenge scheming was wrong.
Selphie despite loosing her friends by a missile attack on her home, she reminds cheerful and brave.
Even Princess Garnet goes through alot of trout and I don't remember her ever whacking Kuja in the face.

Ashe she spends like 99% of the game grieving over her husband.

Even Cloud manages to move on from Aerith and Zack. Terra moves on from Leo and Locke moves from Rachel. Even Spoony Bard moves on from Anna quicker and faster than Ashe does.
