Votes for Aeris

  1. OMG I'm the first voter! Difficult one, but it has to be Aeris. Yuna never made as much impact on me as Aeris – although to be fair, VII was my first FF, and Yuna doesn't die. Also, Aeris never whored herself out (damn near literally) in a sub-standard sequel -- Sorceror Nobody Flan 22:22, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
  2. SilverCrono 22:29, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
  3. I like them both, and this is hard for me. But Aeris died; Yuna didn't. Now, Aeris is more powerful then Yuna. So, using that logic, Aeris > Yuna. Simple as that. A.J. two (Smashboards)
  4. Doreiku Kuroofangu 22:49, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
  5. Sorry Yuna, but as much as I like you and your real game (not that shit sequel) I have to vote for Aerith because she's my ideal girl.  TheBlueDragoon Dissicon ff10 Yun122:54, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
  6. Despite a certain level of contempt to to VII Distaste. I like the upbeat spunky(Not like Yuffie or Rikku) girls. Yuna's too demure, bland and even after her personality is still not as interesting and she forgot how to dress properly to boot. AnonyMan 23:21, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
  7. My girlfriend LOVES Aeris and HATES YunaHolyHighwind
  8. I may've voted for Yuna, but they put that bloody Gunner picture of her, alluding to that nightmare of a sequel. My vote goes to the girl who got stabbed by a REALLY big sword. King of Noobs 00:37, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  9. Better theme song. Moocowisi 00:58, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  10. Rinoa Leonheart 02:45, May 18, 2010 (UTC) Aerith O YEAH
  11. Aerith all the way. She will always be a better healer than Yuna. And yeah, she DIED so that we could save the planet from Sephiroth. Definite winner for me. makoenergy99
  12. HATE, HATE ,HATE, and HATE Yuna in FF X-2!!!... User:Mid555
  13. ClixPsi 03:49, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  14. NeoZEROX 04:12, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  15. Faethinte audio : She belongs here with us, though the Earth cries inside her.
  16. Aerith died, yet still lives, she was able to call upon both HOLY and the LIFESTREAM against a meteor that almost destroyed the planet, she was also able to heal GEOSTIGMA, i think Aerith is the ultimate White Mage, and a match such as this, i think she could outlast Yuna's summons and anything she can throw at her. User:OmnislashVII
  17. Mmh... though decision for me. They both have traits that are appealing to me, like Aerith being able to fight even after death, and Yuna having her Aeons, which are really great, so it's hard to decide, who to vote for. They even share the same theme of longing for someone beloved they lost! But since Yuna just kinda accepted Tidus disappearance and continued to live on, and Aerith actually wrote a total of 89 letters to Zack, believing he'd come back one day... Aerith.MirrorshardSceada 07:07, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  18. Minns luvz youzz Aeris !!Bjarnster 07:44, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  19. I liked Yuna much better as a party member, but Aerith more as a character. King Nothing Where's your crown? 11:20, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  20. I liked Aeris more because of her character traits and Yuna was too...bland for me.User:Sephiroth gainsborough 08:39, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  21. Because I think Aerith has a greater impact in the game than Yuna? --Phfvikkaa 13:08, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  22. FFX-2. Everything from X-2 deserves to die Tonberi Shadou 13:40, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  23. The Rood Inverse Though I like them both, storiwise and powerwise, I like Aerith the moste. The fact that she died and the fact of FFX-2 are the factors that sement my vote.
  24. Aerith by a mile. Yuna was too much of a "Mary-Sue" for me in FFX AND FFX-2. Not only that, but Aerith was stronger IMO. She was happy and upbeat but not too happy and perky. (For all those that didn't know who or what a Mary-Sue is, it's basically a character that is presented with no flaws at all and she's the talk of the whole game setting, or is at least very famous and that everyone likes her. They usually have two or more males fighting over her.) HayleeLOL 15:06, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  25. Sorry. The Man In The Black Cape 15:10, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  26. the only reason that I'm voting for Aeris here is that Yuna's picture is from X-horrible-2 SquallisbetterthanCloud 15:31, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  27. I'm blatently voting for me (does that even count?) FinalFantasyAerith 16:28, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  28. What can I say, I got the hots for Aerith... I love You Aerith!! ♥♥♥ BboyMogFile:Z yoshimitsu1.gif 16:16, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  29. Two letters X-2 ... Well a letter and a number. X-2 ruined Yuna's reputation ... And Yuna in booty shorts is sick and wrong in so many ways and on so many levels--KiraArik 16:44, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  30. Sunpanda2012 18:58, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  31. Gotta vote for Aeris. I simply like Aeris better than Yuna. I'm listening to Aeris' Theme right now. Have I said Aeris enough for you to realize that I'm randomizing her name? Aerith Aeris Aerith. Silver Dragon XXVIII 19:41, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  32. JFHavoc 19:54, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  33. I'll simply compare their most impressive memorable moments. Most White Mages have saved a party a few times; Aeris saved a whole planet and did it (spoiler alert- and we all know which one, right?) while she was dead. Yuna's most impressive such moment was the Trigger Happy backflip in X-2, but despite this, Vincent is still the best Gunner in the series- Yuna fired two full mags for each Tiny Bee (one before and one during the backflip) and didn't hit Ormi OR Logos; had Vincent done that, Ormi's and Logos' heads would've resembled Swiss cheese. So, in case it's still unclear, Aeris wins that. (If it'd been spelled Aerith, however, I would likely have voted for Yuna.) The.DreadnoughT 20:39, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  34. She is a better character. A more believable personality, instead of the perfect Yuna. And notice that having a great foe ahead of you does not equal throwing your life away. Too bad she was the one that was killed. Discordius 04:28, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
  35. Regoli 17:01, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
  36. User:Cloudgauntlet Aeris had so much more personality than Yuna. Yuna was just the typical softspoken, boring white mage type (I know she was a summoner), whereas Aeris was spunky, fiery and mischievous, and just seemed way more real. I agree that she was more believable over the oh-so-perfect Yuna, who everybody instantly loved. Plus later on Yuna's whole life revolved around one guy and she turned into a slutty lovelorn teenager when Aeris was a billion times more mature, and always knew that she would have to sacrifice herself even though she wanted to stay with Cloud and her other friends. Oh and Aeris/Cloud? Was implied, not made so obvious as Yuna and Tidus... not to mention, how could someone fall for someone as irritating as Tidus? Sure Yuna can summon but she ended up choosing NOT to sacrifice herself whereas Aeris was willing to if it meant that shecould help the world. Not to mention, VII is by FAAAAAR the superior game.
  37. Hey, I just so happened to be on TV Tropes a moment ago! "Name Aerith (Aeris for purists, not that it matters since she's being renamed) "Bullseye". When Sephiroth goes surprise-stab-flying-down on her, Cloud will look up, raise a fist to the air and scream "BULLSEYE!"" Yesz! YESZ! 尾藤 19:05, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
  38. Only one of the 2 I know. Nothing to do with that particular event. TARDISES 21:02, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
  39. Because of Zack. Zack! Mynameissora 02:10, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
  40. Although I hope this turns out to be a tie, Aeris and her game have made such a huge impact in my life that I have to go with the Cetra. Still love Yuna in FFX, though! NeoSeth 13:35, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
  41. Because she's pretty much my Final Fantasy. =P Kamikaze Pardee 23:56, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
  42. I'm having trouble picking, so I'll just give it to the one with less votes.Neo Bahamut 23:53, May 21, 2010 (UTC)
  43. I've always like Aeris better. I used to hate Yuna a lot too, but after playing FFX, she grew on me. But here, I have to go with Aeris. I hated Yuna's voice acting, no offense to the voice actor. Mishaxshia 17:47, May 21, 2010 (UTC)
  44. I'd like to say this was an easy choice, but it wasn't. They're both excellent characters. Masamune
  45. Well, since Yuna can't fully restore the party's HP and MP, remove all negative status effects, and make them temporarily invincible -all in one move-, I'm gonna' have to go with Aerith on this one. Besides, she wasn't nearly as whiny as Yuna. GenjiMasamune
  46. I love both characters, but Aerith is just special to me - and not only 'cause I kinda look like her. ^___- <3 <-- Plus she got two awesome guys to like her! Hytey 17:04, May 23, 2010 (UTC)
  47. She's both prettier and stronger, after all what could yuna's guns do against great gospel? Badag 17:29, May 23, 2010 (UTC)
  48. X-2 trampled on almost everything I liked about Yuna, so I'm going with the dead one here. Besides, her theme is wonderful! Apathetic Piggy 20:54, May 23, 2010 (UTC)
  49. I love Aeris, and despise Yuna. As simple as that. SamSandy 21:53, May 23, 2010 (UTC)
  50. recinoWow a match I sugested about a year ago finaly got in. Lol. Anywho, AERIS(never "Aerith") and Yuna both have the potential in the games they came from to be super powerfull depending on the matiria/sphers they have. So this becomes a fight of who I liked better. - And since Aeris had a beautiful death a kick ass theam and she can hold her own in a fight V.s. Yuna who would die off insatly without her party/girl squad my vote goes to the magic girl of FFVII
  51. 8bit 00:35, May 24, 2010 (UTC)
  52. OK, when a woman can dish out the invincible, the full heal, and Holy, do you really think you can stand in her way? Durai Judgement 19:32, May 24, 2010 (UTC)
  53. I happen to like both of these heroines but I think I like Aerith more. She is sweet, funny and dosen't have a bad voice actor to bring her down. That and X-2 is an abomination to Final Fantasy.--StragusLore 09:01, May 24, 2010 (UTC)
  54. Granted, she is from the most overrated videogame of all time, but hey, it's better than some useless character. Fanboy war, anyone? SSFF6B XiiFire 23:09, May 24, 2010 (UTC)
  55. Aerith doesn't whore her self out on a knock-off charlie angeals. that is enough for me.--Uzuki18 13:32, May 25, 2010 (UTC)
  56. Because she is the most loveable character in the history of the world.--beano93 22.16, May 24, 2010 (UTC)
  57. Mr. Rojo: I found both characters to be a little boring, but since FF VII was my first FF I will go for Aerith. 05:05, May 26, 2010 (UTC)
  58. Aerith can do more physical damage than Yuna (if they were same level) so if Yuna ran out of MP she'd be toast Baptiejames 14:04, May 26, 2010 (UTC)
  59. Aeris made me say daaaamn... That's why i'll go for her... Feltor 23:26, May 26, 2010 (UTC)
  60. Tough choice..but I have to go for Aerith..sorry Yuna...>.<--Koori-san 06:09, May 28, 2010 (UTC)
  61. RazielZero 13:12, May 28, 2010 (UTC) Even tough I like Yuna, Aerith still owns her. It was really sad seeing her die, but after that she still helped the others a lot of times.
  62. Void Captain 8:43, May 28, 2010 (UTC) Even though I will never love her as much as I loved Vivi, it was a huge blow to see her die. That and X-2 was an abomination against all things.

Anonymous Votes

  1. Aerith is definitely superior to Yuna. If she hadn't been killed during the game, she'd have become a serious problem for Sephiroth in his final battle with the party. 80.191.138.129 13:08, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  2. 67.234.75.151 04:49, May 20, 2010 (UTC)I'm casting my vote for Aeris here because she only gained more power when she died and became one with the Lifestream, rallying it to assist Holy in countering Meteor and later curing those afflicted with Geostigma. (For that, I laugh in Sephiroth's pale, pointed face.)
  3. 82.37.224.251 17:04, May 21, 2010 (UTC)So yeah, Aerith is greatly more powerful then Yuna. She kicks butt. Sephiroth had to kill her as she could have ruined his plan. Defiantly Aerith.
  4. Aerith made a huge impact in such a short time during the game... and that screams louder than any controllable aeons and what not!! Remember guys, Aerith cured the geostigma and brought back Cloud from the brink of death (Advent Children). I mean, she's gone and is still kicking ass. Yuna can't even save Tidus' skinny ass! ♫♪♫♪♪ hahaha 74.185.254.245 07:10, May 22, 2010 (UTC)
  5. Ahh...this was a hard one, but since Crisis Core was my first FF, my vote goes to Aerith..but I really hope that this ends in a tie..--110.159.107.33 11:04, May 25, 2010 (UTC)

Votes for Yuna

  1. Tough choice. I liked Yuna better though.Naruto195 22:34, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
  2. Likeacupcake 23:10, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
  3. Nothing against Aeris, but I'm just partial to summoners. Hyacynth 00:02, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  4. Im not sure , though i do like Aerith i go with Yuna she had amazing character development before the sequel went on and ruined it ..AznPinoyFlip 00:38, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  5. Well, after finally having beaten VII, one thing was clear; X was a far superior game. And as Aerith died fairly quickly in the game, making her useless when she would be useful, my vote goes to Yuna. Besides, due to the summons, Yuna was actually USEFUL. Darkeclipse21 01:06, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  6. AeriTH is boring, bland, and terribly kill-offable. Yuna seemed more real (excluding her X-2) iteration. - +DeadlySlashSword+ 01:10, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  7. Both are incredibly dull, but only because of the garment grid, X-2's gameplay was awesome. :p Judge Balthier Griever Emblem 01:16, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  8. Ghost of Christmas Past 01:39, May 18, 2010 (UTC):
    I know, I know I've let you down
    I've been a fool to myself
    I thought that I could live for no one else
    But now through all the hurt and pain
    It's time for me to respect
    The ones you love mean more than anything
    So, with sadness in my heart
    Feel the best thing that I could do
    Is end it all and leave forever
    What's done is done it feels so bad
    What once was happy now is sad
    I'll never love again
    My world is ending
    I wish that I could turn back time
    'Cause now the guilt is all mine
    Can't live without
    The trust from those you love
    I know we can't forget the past
    You can't forget love and pride
    Because of that, it's killing me inside
    It all returns to nothing
    It all comes tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down
    It all returns to nothing
    I just keep letting me down, letting me down, letting me down
    It all returns to nothing
    It just keeps tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down
    It all returns to nothing
    I just keep letting me down, letting me down, letting me down
    It all returns to nothing
    It just keeps tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down
    It all returns to nothing
    I just keep letting me down, letting me down, letting me down

  10. She's a summoner, and I love summoners. And she gave Spira the Eternal Calm. And she's alive. Gengle 01:57, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  11. The X-2 picture made me vote for her. Dat ass. LC 02:57, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  12. Why? Because she has Heterochromia too! Nokareon
  13. Yuna all the way! Cluna 06
  14. Let's face it, Yuna summons the sweetest incarnation of Bahamut ever! In addition, if you really played FFX, she even "Shared Anima's Pain"... which is amazing. And X-2, well I think it's good that she had some appeal. And she can sing! The Pain Of Anima 04:06, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  15. Both made epic contributions to thier original games and i like them both but yuna is in FFX and i prefer FFX over FFVII. theWOL 5:00, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  16. Yuna is less of a "distressed damsel" than Aerith. ララ・ルナ・ステラ姫 FFTA2-FrimeldaSprite.png 09:22, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  17. Final Fantasy X was my first FF and it is also my favorite FF ever! So this vote goes to Yuna! She's so cute together with Tidus!--TerraBranford145322 10:17, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  18. tough choice, but going out with Yuna this time :P MMLN メーマウリアン 10:50, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  19. She's hot! :o and she didn't die. not dying is a plus. --Jamandsam 14:23, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  20. Aeris was renamed for no reason, spends about the whole game freaking out and talking like a psycho, is a worthless fighter no matter how you put it and dies on the first disc. Yuna is the best mage in FFX and has has access to the most powerful Summons in the series Uppfinnarn 17:07, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  21. Death claimed Aerith, but not Yuna. Yuna is clearly to awesome to die.KefkaPVI 17:09, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  22. Yuna all the way. The reasons are too many to list. FinalAnnihilator 18:48, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  23. Yuna: Ultima. Flare. Doublecast. Nirvana. Aerith? Princess stick guard. Materia. Poor health. Dead. Mog&Boko 19:52, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  24. Ok...well I THOUGHT we were voting on who would win in a fight...but it seems it turned into a popularity contest...there is NO WAY Aeris (or Aerith...w/e) would beat just about anyone...her stats are just far too weak. And what's with all this animosity towards X-2? In terms of the battle system and gameplay, I liked it much, much better than X, the re-addition of the ATB gauge was a welcome sight, and thanks to it the flow of the game was much quicker. I despised the sphere grid system, and while I didn't find the dressphere thing to be great, it was still better than X's system. Eyestothesky 21:25, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  25. Just trying to make it a tie. OwlEye 21:45, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  26. Yuna. Not to say that I like her very much, but Aeris was cooler when she was dead. And I enjoy the optional Yuna-ditches-Tidus-and-becomes-a-lesbian in X-2. Girl power for the win. oglop_master 19:21, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  27. I prefer Final Fantasy X to VII, and Yuna just has more customizablility, while Aerith is weak at attacking.Legend of Fantasy 00:14, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
  28. I love both of them and this was a tough one for me. FFX was my first Final Fantasy and Yuna was my second favorite character in it. Nostalgia wins. Aarim 02:33, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
  29. In my opinion, Yuna has Aerith beat. I mean, not only can she heal, but she can summon Valefor, Ifrit, Ixion, Shiva, Magus Sisters, Yojimbo, Bahamut, and Anima!!!! Several of those Aeons can kill you in one hit and you can't deny that most of the Aeons looked freakin awesome!!! Aerith has nothing on her because she was weak to begin with and died by the end of the game. Plus, X-2 made her look incredibly sexy no matter what dressphere you put her in(and is adorable in the Moogle costume).Golbez91
  30. Because she develops as a character through FFX much more than Aeris ever did. Plus her Aeons are pretty epic. Terrible picture though, someone change it! Hamfruitcake 09 09:57, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
  31. I've always been really annoyed with Yuna. She was always so...I don't know. It just irritated me that I had to have her in my party because I love having summon's available. I still prefer her over Aerith, though. Dan-Iota 11:30 (UTC)
  32. There are two reasons I vote for Yuna. One, because she didn't have her name changed, and two because she could actually wield whatever you wanted her to in X-2. Updraft Reiza
  33. She never makes the main character emo, she doesn't die an overrated death. She may have been the main character of the worst sequel ever, but she's a much better character than Aeris. ZaFlareStar 19/5/2010, 17:35 (UTC)
  34. *cough* Summons *cough* --Azecreth 14:57, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
  35. I enjoyed the scene in which Aeris died. When I watched it, I did not cry. Instead, I thought to myself: "Thank fuck! She's dead!" ...besides, Yuna was actually useful. YamiNoBahamut 20:02, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
  36. Aerith has an awkward voice in my opinion... and YUNA SUMMONS AND IS THE BEST SUMMONER. HAHA. User:XxLightningxXXIII
  37. Aerith vs. Yuna. Stick vs. Gun. Cure vs. Mega Flare. Team of misfits and wanna-be's vs. Team of well-trained guardians and mages. and last but not least, Dead vs. Alive. Doesnt look good on Aeriths side. Rakanadyo 04:50, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
  38. Admittedly i like both of the characters, but it comes down to the Aeons - the best summon system in an FF; how on earth did they manage to cock it up so badly with the system in XII afterwards?!? Brit Penance 22:29, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
  39. FFX is an awesome game and i have yet to play FFVII so i guess my vote goes here:} Theron101 17:25, May 20, 2010
  40. This is really hard, but you know what? At the end of the day, I choose Aerith, but at the end of the game, Yuna is alive. PinkAye 17:45 May 20, 2010 (UTC)
  41. Just because i'm voting for Yuna does NOT mean i like 10 more then 7, i just like yuna better, but some reason a lot of people are voting for Yuna because they hate 7, its should just between these 2 characters NeoExdeath 05:44, May 21, 2010 (UTC)
  42. Assuming it's Final Fantasy X Yuna and not X-2 Yuna, then definitely. In X, Yuna was invaluable for EVERYTHING. She did over 20k damage with Holy once she got her fully upgraded Nirvana. Heck, I made her solo Omega Weapon! And not the puny one, the PAL one with ten times as much hp. And last but not least, even if she was solely a Summoner, she'd obliterate every other Summoner out there. Even Rydia. I love you, PAL games. Intercision 15:52, May 21, 2010 (UTC)
  43. Yuna as she appeared in FFX and not FFX-2 was a very good female lead and presumably the real lead of the game considering Tidus was, well you know. Part of me wished Tidus never came back but whatever. Yuna would've been alongside Terra & Lightning as only female main characters in the series. Adelbert
  44. i love you so i'll go for her!! User:Neveryuna24
  45. I'm primarily voting for the FFX version of Yuna. I hate what she became in the second. Sry to those who I've offended, just my opinion. Zeypher 13:12, May 22, 2010 (UTC)

  1. 99.224.45.211 11:41, May 18, 2010 (UTC) definitely Yunaaa
  2. I love them both but Yuna becuase she is great but so is aerith :( I feel bad voting becuase they are both my fav characters but I always used Yuna and not Aerith82.3.2.188 16:56, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
  3. Love AeriTH, but even overlooking the fact that Aeris isn't a character, but a misprint, Yuna saved the world TWICE and didn't have to sacrifice herself to do it. Anyone who's played FFX should know "There's gotta be another way!" than sacrificing the summoner/white mage (kinda the whole plot of the game). 70.114.213.65 19:02, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
  4. I'm sorry Aeris, but Yuna just beats you. Having a voice definitely helps. Yuna's storyline and her deep changes and emotions really made the story of X what it was.#76.213.223.55 21:45, May 19, 2010 (UTC)

  7. Yuna is my favorite character in the whole series!--180.72.80.79 11:38, May 26, 2010 (UTC)
  8. 70.143.84.230 Without a shadow of a doubt Yuna. The depth of Yuna's character is one of the primary reasons why Final Fantasy X is my favorite.
  9. FF7 holds a very promminnent spot in my heart since it was my first RPG, but I'm sorry, there really should be no contest who'd win here. Assuming they're fighting with the stats, rules, and limitations of their respective games, Yuna would wipe the floor with Aeris. True, both have great mage stats and can both (potentially) cast white and black magic. However, the ability to do 99,999 as opposed to 9,999 damage, vastly increase physical stats through extensive progression into the sphere grid, and the fact that her summons can actually be controlled as opposed to being just high-powered spells, give Yuna a serious edge here. 67.83.9.65 17:08, May 28, 2010 (UTC)

Seriously, Naruto195... I myself go overboard with the whole Aeris/th thing sometimes, but doing it here is just incredibly petty. If you want to nitpick over the retcon in a fight, might I suggest doing it here instead of the DNC? -- Sorceror Nobody Flan 22:39, May 17, 2010 (UTC)

It's not a retcon. Why do people say that? A retcon is a change in a plotline that reinterprets past information. Aeris is an improper translation. Fixing translation errors=/=retcons.Neo Bahamut 05:05, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
Although by the strict definition of a retcon you're correct, stop being so pedantic. Sheesh -- Sorceror Nobody Flan 07:56, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
I laugh every time I see people argue about Aeris' name. Silver Dragon XXVIII 19:43, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
I find it odd as well. There's really nothing to make a stink about. The "original" name was not the intention of the source material. Therefore, it can hardly be said to have been "changed." I don't view this as a technicality or being pedantic--these terms are just plain being used wrong. That being said, vote criticisms! [b]Aerith supporters:[/b] You really shouldn't go on about Aerith saving the entire world from beyond the grave, then turn around & call Yuna a Mary Sue. It just makes no sense. [b]Yuna supporters:[/] Aerith easily has the best magic stat in Final Fantasy. She CAN use black magic & summonings, so I don't see why you're not counting them for her. And easily her greatest combat advantage is her Limit Breaks, one of which can heal/revive the party fully AND make them invincible. You can also raise her attack, just like Yuna's. She is not a "weak fighter" by any stretch of the imagination.Neo Bahamut 21:47, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
I don't really want to inflame this debate, but I can't resist the urge to point out that Aeris's birth and naming are, in an odd sort of way, part of the storyline (think Gast's recordings at Icicle Inn). One could argue that her name itself therefore counts as a part of the storyline, sort of, and thus it qualifies to be called a retcon. In all seriousness, though, this comment is really just me mocking anyone who takes the whole thing too seriously (including myself sometimes) -- Sorceror Nobody 10:20, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
I'll respond anyway: Even taking all of that logic into account, Aerith's name was always meant to be Aerith. It wasn't changed within the confines of the story, it was changed due to outside circumstances, namely, a translation error. Ergo, it isn't a true retcon. And you're talking to a guy with a pretty liberal idea of what makes a retcon. On another note, I'm thinking of going with Aerith just because the Yuna votes are so stupid that I don't want to be associated with them. "Hey, look at all this shit Yuna can do! Black Magic, Summons...Aerith can't do any of that!" Oh wait....Neo Bahamut 00:06, May 21, 2010 (UTC)
Neo Bahamut, The point of the Yuna voters mentioning black magic and summons is that Yuna is more effective/versatile in those roles by the end of X than Aerith is when she dies (possibly excluding long time grinders). I understand the gameplay convention (characters get stronger as the game progresses), but if you're just comparing the 2 characters overall, Yuna is 17 at the end of X, while Aerith is 22. At 17, Yuna has fully controllable aeons, flare, doublecast, etc. Imagine how much more powerful she'll be at 22 (even counting the fact that she had to destroy her friends the aeons at the end of X). Definitely much stronger than Aerith as a mage by then. As for stupid votes, both sides have much dumber votes including I hate (Yuna/Aerith, VII/X/X-2) and (Yuna/Aerith) is hot (without any additional explanation or reasons). But the Aerith voters are worse. For example, Yuna is perfect is a reason for voting against Yuna, "Aerith can do more damage than Yuna (if they're the same level)," and "Yuna just accepted Tidus disappearance; Aerith didn't just accept Zack's." Characters don't level in X, they have the sphere grid to increase stats, learn abilities, etc. The only reasonable comparison is the end of the game, or when Yuna is 22, which we don't know about, but it's reasonable to assume that she wouldn't get weaker. Yuna should therefore be stronger either way. Disliking someone for being perfect/popular/likable is just as bad as disliking someone for not being popular. As for Yuna just accepting Tidus' disappearance, there's this game called Final Fantasy X-2, where she saves the world while on a quest to get him back (and may or may not actually succeed). Writing letters is really, really weak dedication compared to that. Even worse, someone voted for Aerith because that character had fewer votes (and that character now has more votes). I'm not trying to be confrontational, but you seem like a logical person, and I just think you might want to consider switching sides on this one. Yrl 17:26, May 26, 2010 (UTC)

It really doesn't matter that much, except for those people petty enough to change their vote based on the name (I'm looking at you, Naruto195).

Just curious, but why do loads of people overlook the fact that Aerith used Cloud as a replacement for Zack and Shuyin used Yuna as a replacement for Lenne? at least Yuna fought back against Shuyin and didn't start stealing other people's (namely Tifa's) love interests.Mog&Boko 19:56, May 18, 2010 (UTC)

I actually forgot about Aerith and Zack (Never played X-2 though). Don't judge me. AJtwosig 20:04, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
Loll. Yeah, she saw the Zack-ness in Cloud. You make it sound like she's so sinister. If Tifa really is his love interest that wouldn't have been a problem for him to square it out. AnonyMan 22:00, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
Well, because neither of those are true. Shuyin only mistaked Yuna for Lenne. After realizing they were different people, he went all, GTFO I'm gonna blow up Spira. As for Aerith, literally the only place in the entire Compilation where she ever says she saw Zack in Cloud, she turns around & notes she liked things about him that Zack didn't have. This was missed by many people who aggressively latched onto one of the details, claiming that it's been "proven" that Aerith did/not love Cloud, a trend that continues with every new commentary on the love triangle. Apparently, the phrase "up to your own interpretation" is some kind of completely alien concept that has no business in the minds of fans. Of course, since it's up for interpretation, you're technically not incorrect, but that doesn't really coincide with Aerith's personality, either.Neo Bahamut 00:37, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
...Mkay, that came across quite aggressive but hey, I never like Aerith, never had her in my party (even though she still managed to date Cloud.) Crisis Core suggested heavily that she loved Cloud because he reminded her of Zack. Checking the timelines, Cloud believed him and Zack to be roughly one person more or less. He only snapped out of this after Aerith died during the events in Mideel when he finally broke free of his mental trauma. Soooo, assuming him to be unstable for the duration of Aerith's life he had no control over this and to some extent, she took advantage, whether this was intentional or not is debatable, still she wasn't exactly all sugar and rainbows. And let's face it Yuna was a lot more 'good' in that she saved Spira twice, Aerith barely managed to prevent meteor, let alone top Sephiroth.Mog&Boko 15:24, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
You know, come to think of it, the Lifestream gathering where it did may just have been lucky coincidence; the Planet sensed it's "life" in danger, and was going to spawn Omega. Fortunately for the people living on that planet (and unfortunately for Omega) it happened to be spawning in the exact place where Meteor would've hit, and the Lifestream's gathering there prevented Meteor's impact, thus eliminating the threat to the Planet and stopping the process of Omega's spawning (which saved the Planet's inhabitants from a fatal relocation of the Lifestream.)

Oh, so we should reject authority? Seriously, I did it mainly in an attempt to stop back-and-forth changes. Furthermore, despite my preference, if TA had put it up as Aerith, I would have argued against anyone changing it to Aeris. But what does it matter? Anyone who objects to my reasoning can either reject TA's decision, or bother TA with something so trivial as asking whether it should be changed. Just remember that anyone who does so becomes more petty than they think I am -- Sorceror Nobody 19:10, May 22, 2010 (UTC)

Unofficial notice - to me, unsigned votes and votes in the wrong sections are now called "idiot votes." There are notices IN HUGE CAPITAL LETTERS LIKE THIS reminding people to sign their votes, not to vote above or below certain lines of coding, etc, but some still do it. So really, if you can't be bothered to pay attention...yeah, I am going to make certain judgements about your intelligence. Maybe if we make the rules flash in and out, I do believe there is coding for that. Doreiku Kuroofangu 04:49, May 25, 2010 (UTC)

YOU MEAN LIKE THIS?
That might work, but I doubt anybody would look at it even if it was blinking. We should also note that signing is done with four tildes. Now many people know that. EDIT: I just realized it was in the rules (hypocrisy, thy name is Moocowisi). We should still make a point of asserting it, though. --Moocowisi 05:01, May 25, 2010 (UTC)

  28. Haven't played FFXIII, so I'm just going to go with Squall. KefkaPVI 20:53, May 7, 2010 (UTC)
  29. Have to go with Squall. He's a lot deeper character than he usually gets credit for, while Lightning just sort of seems like the generic cold soldier-type. Plus, Squall has the original gunblade. Not the gun/sword mesh that they're calling a gunblade now Lord Knight Xiron 22:24, May 7, 2010 (UTC)Lord Knight Xiron
  30. Squall gets a lot of flak that, as far as I can tell, is undeserved. Therefore, not really having a stake in this fight, & having only ever seen the awesome in Squall, I'm gonna give him the BOTD. I haven't played VIII or XIII, but whatever.Neo Bahamut 02:58, May 8, 2010 (UTC)
  31. Squall. Absolutely.Kimahri Ronso 03:03, May 8, 2010(UTC)
  32. I registered... just to vote here... because I cannot let this injustice stand! Lightning isn't even in the same /league/ as Squall. As Squall himself would say, "..." YugeRec 18:21, May 8, 2010 (UTC)
  33. Clearly Squall. FinalAnnihilator 20:45, May 8, 2010 (UTC)
  34. Lightning may be a badass, but Squall is even more of a badass. Tough call, but since FFVIII is one of my favorites, I'll go with Squall TheRedNinja 21:08, May 8, 2010 (UTC)

  37. 1st of all... Whatever. And secondly, XIII hasn't been around long enough to make a fair vote of what has a lasting impression... But my vote goes to Squall just cause he is a cooler person beneath that hair... The Pain Of Anima 05:43, May 9, 2010 (UTC)
  38. I like Lightning too but it's gotta be Squall for me. My favourite character of the series. Hereticdante May 9 9:08, 2010 (GMT+10)
  39. I like both characters, but I love Revolver's design more than Blazefire Saber. Because Revolver pwns all. Plus, it seems like Squallo's losing the battle...whatever. Phfvikkaa 14:19, May 9, 2010 (UTC)
  40. Mr. Rojo: As long as I like a lot Lightning and she is one of the most awesome female characters, no one gets higher in my book than Squall <3. 19:47, May 9, 2010 (UTC)
  41. I like Squall because he is cool, calm and touch (plus he can be pretty much invincible by Disc 3). While Lightning did seem kinda awesome, as soon as i saw XIII, she was nothing like i imagined. She is just Cloud crossdressing as Terra (who is better, in my opinion) and swinging around a Gunblade. She's not even cool, she more of a emo jerk than Squall ever was. Rakanadyo 02:43, May 10, 2010 (UTC)
  42. A friend of Zidane's is a friend of mine. Besides, Squall > "female Cloud" any day, any time. Show the new lead character how to REALLY use a Gunblade. =p Adelbert
  43. I'll confess that I have finished XIII yet but I've seen enough to know that I like Squall's character better. I know that he comes off as brooding and sullen but there really is quite a striking amount of depth and believability to his character(considering what he's been through) and while a very interesting character I've yet to see that type of depth out of Lightening although she is a good character.--Doorofnight 17:45, May 11, 2010 (UTC)

  47. I like him more. - Ash Crimson - 06:43, May 13, 2010 (UTC)
  48. I have yet to play XIII, and although Lightning is hotter, for now ill have to go with Squall, the man has the guts to go against time itself. OmnislashVII
  49. Squall can solo superbosses. Can Lightning do that? Maybe she can, but I have yet to see proof. Intercision 19:54, May 13, 2010 (UTC)

  52. Definitely Squall if only for the fact that new FF is starting to suck balls, although having to time R1 just right was a bit of an agg StijnX 12:27, May 14, 2010 (UTC)
  53. I don't love Squall. I just can't stand Lightning. User:Mantlecore77
  54. I'd have to give the vote to Squall. Although I like both characters, I think Squall is better. Flowenote May 14, 2010

  11. While Lightning was a strong character, Squall still stood out to me as the most realistic, emotionally-wise. He didn't remain static throughout the game, nor did he go as 'emo' as everyone likes to say. He changed as most people in that situation would change, and reacted as a child the way most people in that situation would react. Try having the most important person to you in your life be ripped away. Then see how you feel.72.240.203.132 01:46, May 13, 2010 (UTC)

  1. Because while I don't hate Squall and actually kinda like him, Lightning helps fill in the undeniable, unignorable void in the series where the much-needed female heroes should go. Plus, her Gunblade > Squall's, and she's badass enough to steal Kain's cape. Doreiku Kuroofangu 21:57, May 5, 2010 (UTC)

  12. I think her hair is nicer. The random pink helps compensate for her GAR personality. Plus, Squall's looks oily. Lightning's look wavier and more natural...ignoring the color. ClixPsi 04:15, May 6, 2010 (UTC)
  13. I did play FFXIII only for a while so I can't judge her full character, but Squall is one of mine most disliked protagonists in FF universe, so she clearly wins over him in this one... MMLN メーマウリアン 07:09, May 6, 2010 (UTC)

While Squall seemed way too cold in my eyes, Light's cold attitude just seems right to me. Furthermore, I consider her to be stronger, and so...

  21. Squall was enough of an idiot to carry Rinoa across the world map for half of the game. Lightning is a pretty hardcore dyke who actually knows how to fight, instead of just using GFs. Plus, FFVIII was stupid. oglop_master 16:16, May 6, 2010 (UTC)

  23. I'm obsessed with XIII and she looks awesome. FFVIIACCXD
  24. It is an insult to Lightning to say she is modeled after Cloud. She is her own person and the interactions of the XIII cast as a whole far surpasses that of any other game. And yeah, nice gun. 8bit 02:03, May 7, 2010 (UTC)
  25. She have punched/slapped/bitched at every person so far. Another vote for Lightning. OavatosDK◕‿◕ 02:41, May 7, 2010 (UTC)

  48. Is this fight a joke, the best protagonist from the best game ever (FFXIII) VS the worst protagonist from the worst game ever (FFVIII). Lightning has a much better story, a MUCH cooler sword, an awesome Eidolon that is much better then all FFVIII GF's combined, she is much stronger gameplay AND story wise, she is a lot cooler, more interesting as well and much more. Lightning is better then squall in every way. Try and put squall against any FF main protagonist and he WILL get totally OWNED. KaiserPaladin 04:29, May 10, 2010 (UTC)

  57. Not that I don't like Squall (I do), but it has to be Lightning. First, Light's Gunblade actually fires bullets, so she can range Squall to death. Second, Squall can only use his magic stocks, whereas Light has no upper limit on magic use. Third, I doubt that Squall can do much to counter a sequence of Army of One -> Stagger -> Launch. Fourth, Light > Squall generally. Fifth, FFXIII > FFVIII. Sixth, Light gets bonus points for being sexy. Are six reasons enough, do you think? :P -- Sorceror Nobody Flan 22:04, May 12, 2010 (UTC)

  3. Well if we're voting on hair, definitely Lightning. Also, while I like Squall and FFVIII, Lightning has the better Gunblades, has a more realistic personality (although they both start out their games a bit cold), is attractive (albeit less so than Fang or Vanille), and isn't horribly scarred by one of the characters/enemies in her game demonstrating a lack of combat skill (Almost dying the instant the game starts isn't a good way to impress people). And while Lightning isn't in Dissidia, Squall is terrible to use compared to just about any other character, besides, interestingly enough, Ultimecia. 128.83.39.164 17:47, May 14, 2010 (UTC)

Unless I'm missing something...or it's actually a joke, I'm not seeing the hair thing. Lightning does seem to have a few similarities with Squall despite having apparently been design as a female Cloud. Heck their concept arts are almost the exact same. AnonyMan 22:41, May 5, 2010 (UTC)

I think we're both missing a joke. I thought it was because they both had gunswords. Mynameissora 01:14, May 6, 2010 (UTC)

Lightning is the new character, but she is so awesome. She takes Squall's weapon, Cloud's personality, and Terra' femaleness. I can see why everyone could be voting in her favor. A.J. two (Smashboards) 15:14, May 6, 2010 (UTC)
It could also be that people like Lightning because they are tired of seeing emos like her female counterpart, Cloud and her lover, Sephiroth. Squall doesn't count because he isn't emo, just a jerk/borderline douche. P.S. I voted anyway! 8D Judge Balthier Griever Emblem 15:32, May 6, 2010 (UTC)

A lot of fans, in all fandoms, think they have something to prove by hating on the most popular installment in a series. Lightning is a new character (I can't judge her qualities as, again, I've not played XIII) who seems to have gone over well. Nobody's burnt on her yet, but eventually the fans'll turn on her too. That's usually how these sorts of things go. Besides, it's not like half the votes are for well-thought out reasons. Go song lyrics! Apathetic Piggy 19:20, May 6, 2010 (UTC)

Seriously Lightning is a man in a skirt :/ She irrititates me as a women... FinalFantasyAerith 16:33, May 6, 2010 (UTC)

You say that like it's a bad thing! D: oglop_master 19:56, May 6, 2010 (UTC)

I kind of get the hair joke. If Square were to do an updated rendering of Squall, I'd imagine his hair would probably look pretty much identical to Lightnings, just brown. Still...I thought the more logical comparison would of been the whole gunblade thing...Oh, and yeah, while Lightning may be a girl with a manly attitude, you gotta admit, Squall, for the better part of the game, is a man with girl's attitude...and I'm talking the moody "leave me alone or else" PMS girl's attitudeEyestothesky 19:19, May 6, 2010 (UTC)

What moody PMS attitude, Squall had Bi-Polar disorder, when? How is being extremely aloof and nonchalant equate to a girl's attitude?AnonyMan 20:15, May 6, 2010 (UTC)
Hey hey!! Squall does not get PMS! He doesn't nag or whinge properly xD FinalFantasyAerith 05:17, May 7, 2010 (UTC)
Nor does he run over people with the Bitchmobile like Lightning probably would! And futhermore, I'll understand people who call him a jerk, but he matures into a born leader over the course of the game. As for anyone who calls him a douche, that's nothing but pure ignorance at its worst: Squall is shown, generally speaking, to be pretty damned intelligent. He might not have as much sheer intellect as, say, Hojo or Doctor Odine (whom you must admit are both geniuses, if not super-geniuses), but he's definitely above average.

I'm refusing to read the comments and votes for fear of spoilers. Nokareon

Let's all think of our most hated character in VIII- no the whole of the FF series. Lightning is the only one to (repeatedly) punch the most annoying one in her game, therefore what she says goes, despite Squall having superior stats (reletive to his game) Mog&Boko 20:52, May 7, 2010 (UTC)

I said that Squall gets a lot of undeserved flack. I haven't played VIII, so that might factor into it. But one would figure that his personality DOES transfer into other games. He's pretty cool in Kingdom Hearts & completely badass in Dissidia. As for the Gunblade, I don't get why people don't like that at all. It's a very creative weapon with a nice, sleek look to it. Sure, it wouldn't work IRL, but neither would most FF weapons, especially swords, which tend to be more ornate than functional. My only complaint about the Gunblade is that the Lionheart (and maybe some other models) looks like shit.Neo Bahamut 02:58, May 8, 2010 (UTC)
I think Squall's Gunblade is the best one I've ever seen. It doesn't shoot, no, instead it used the vibration caused by the shell "exploding" in the barrel, improving it's dicing power. All the rest of these "proper shooting gunblades" are nothing more than guns with a bloody long bayonet attached. Not overly creative. King of Noobs 17:30, May 8, 2010 (UTC)
You can say that again. You tell me what's harder to deal with: a clean cut, or a horrific jagged slash. King Nothing Speak now, vermin! 11:22, May 10, 2010 (UTC)

I don't know if I'm allowed to comment on this fight, since I got the card, but this fight is going pretty much the way I expected it. Lightning ahead. She's the new badass on the block, and I think she even gives Kain a run for his money in the badass department.  TheBlueDragoon Dissicon ff10 Yun107:43, May 8, 2010 (UTC)

What's "the card"? FinalFantasyAerith 10:16, May 8, 2010 (UTC)
One Card to rule them all, One Card to find them,
One Card to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.

Roflmao that kinda card could only belong to Jaden xD But seriosuly what is the card that stops you commenting here? FinalFantasyAerith 11:10, May 8, 2010 (UTC)
They got a yellow card from TA, preventing them from voting because of a wrong usage of the Peanut gallery in the previous fight (the songs). Around ten people got them. KujaRhapsodos 13:07, May 8, 2010 (UTC)
I'd prefer not to talk about that...  TheBlueDragoon Dissicon ff10 Yun117:26, May 8, 2010 (UTC)

Is this fight a joke, the best protagonist from the best game ever (FFXIII) VS the worst protagonist from the worst game ever (FFVIII). Seeing that, I must conclude that Lightning is winning because her CGI render is much better, or for the reason why her CGI render is better (latest, PS3 game). Also, could people stop ranting over how much they hate a game? It's all a matter of taste. KujaRhapsodos 10:47, May 10, 2010 (UTC)

@129.15.127.123: Your argument is invalid. Squall only gains command of the Garden mid-to-late game, at the beginning of the game he hadn't even graduated into the SeeD program. Lightning quits before the game starts. Also, if you were to call, say, a soldier fighting in Afghanistan "just a grunt soldier", you would get severe backlash from the internet. Or hit.  Armageddon11! Dissicon ff12 Gab2 11:31, May 10, 2010 (UTC)

@98.162.214.41 ... For me, Squall sucks in Dissidia. He's extremely easy to beat and his fighting style kind of fails. But Dissidia varies drastically with the person. oglop_master 16:03, May 10, 2010 (UTC)

Oh look, it's the two worst protagonists in any Final Fantasy game ever. FFTA-job-timemageMStarkMaximumFFTA-job-timemageNM 05:20, May 12, 2010 (UTC)

If Squall and Lightning are the two worst ever, than who are the two best ever? King Nothing Speak now, vermin! 12:04, May 12, 2010 (UTC)

I never understood how Lightning was based on Cloud , only in design probably but other than her personality and background are almost totally different AznPinoyFlip 20:00, May 12, 2010 (UTC)

Agreed. While I can sort of see the angle from which the comparison is made, I really don't think that Lightning is in any way a counterpart to Cloud. Besides, if Light were equivalently Cloud, there would have to be some sort of wannabe Sephiroth proxy in XIII... -- Sorceror Nobody Flan 22:12, May 12, 2010 (UTC)

I can see a few similarities between the two, such as mostly not caring about people except for one special person, Serah for Light and Tifa for Cloud. But besides that I agree that I don't see the resemblance. Aarim 01:07, May 13, 2010 (UTC)

Seems like Lightning's got this in the bag. Either she's that good of a character, or XIII is that good of a game. Mind you, when you got a guy with a chocobo in his hair, the game's good. Pity about Squall, though, he really is a great leading man.

I thought squall was going to get his ass handed to him, what with the new game hype, VIII haters and Squall haters combined, I thought it would be a sure thing. But I must say, despite all this, he's putting up a half decent fight. Likeacupcake 08:45, May 14, 2010 (UTC)

A half decent fight, or at least a half decent comeback since Squall was losing bad but now he is only behind by 1 vote (61-60.) Tonberi Shadou 13:39, May 14, 2010 (UTC)

Actually, they're tied with 60 right now. I seriously thought that Lightning was going to win, but now it looks like it is going to be a tie. I wonder if Silver will get his wish next fight (Barret vs. Sazh)? A.J. two (Smashboards) 14:11, May 14, 2010 (UTC)
Did not expect this, Squall is winning 61.5 to 60. and why Barret vs. Sazh? Tonberi Shadou 15:04, May 14, 2010 (UTC)
They're black. They use guns. What more do you need? --SilverCrono 21:22, May 14, 2010 (UTC) PS- I just can't stay away, huh? Well, this is the last one. If you want to talk to me, please do it on my talk page; I won't answer here.

Hmm Squall caught up , Heh Lets tie it come on haha AznPinoyFlip 03:38, May 15, 2010 (UTC)

Actually, I think the Anon votes make it tie. Mynameissora 11:28, May 15, 2010 (UTC)

How much are anon votes worth?Aarim 15:16, May 15, 2010 (UTC)

Half the worth of a registered user vote Bjarnster 16:05, May 15, 2010 (UTC)

Its a tie as of now. I expected Lightning to win, but Squall caught up. Let's hope the next fight is this good. (COUGHSAZHVBARRETCOUGHAERITHVYUNA)  TheBlueDragoon Dissicon ff10 Yun117:54, May 15, 2010 (UTC)

  1. hmmmm this is a close one... too tough to call. EXCITING!! HAHAHA BboyMogFile:Z yoshimitsu1.gif 02:09, May 16, 2010 (UTC)

"I don't need 3.5 Years to playing Squall"? What does that mean? Aarim 16:15, May 16, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I was wondering about that too. Anyone got any ideas? -- Sorceror Nobody Flan 19:26, May 16, 2010 (UTC)
I could be wrong, but I think it means the time we waited between FFXII and FFXIII. It was about 3.5 years between the games. But the vote still makes no sense.  TheBlueDragoon Dissicon ff10 Yun121:34, May 16, 2010 (UTC)

67.5 to 67, I think it's time to call this a tie and move on. King of Noobs 05:10, May 17, 2010 (UTC)

Nobody is going to win this,It's 68.5-67.5. What is taking so long? Tonberi Shadou 13:54, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
