Character Battle SF1: Cloud vs Vivi

[AvecAloes]

Uggghhhh, this tie is stressing me out. C'mon, Vivi!

 

[Octo]

I just wanted to say that when I first played IX I renamed Vivi 'Kenny' because of South Park. GO VIVI!

 

[ForceStealer]

I want Vivi to win, but I'm glad its not a landslide, it should be close

 

[Gym Leader Devil]

C'mon Cloud, its not over yet.

 

[Tennyo]

Eenie meenie minie moe, catch a tiger by the toe...

 

[Fangu]

That is a real location on the west coast of Norway But the sheep is most probably shopped in there.

For my vote, Vivi suffers like probably a lot of not-VII characters have in other polls in this voting contest: I don't know him. Her.

 

[Alessa Gillespie]

oh my god is vivi, quite possibly the character with the best story, losing to cloud because

because i don't know i sincerely can't think of any way cloud is better than vivi other than he's the hero and everyone here has seen something of cloud whereas that's less likely than vivi?

 

[Gym Leader Devil]

because i don't know i sincerely can't think of any way cloud is better than vivi

18 folks so far (give or take a few who picked him for not knowing who Vivi is really) can

 

[Celes Chere]

TLS I AM DISAPPOINT

 

[Madame Mayor]

i think people who voted for cloud are bad people

 

[Zee]

if vivi doesn't win im calling the cops

 

[Celes Chere]

if Vivi doesn't win he will jump off this cliff
do you really want to be responsible
for that

your ignorance is appalling

 

[Cookie Monster]

Never played IX, but I've long grown tired the derp faced blond boy. Vivi gets my vote.

 

[Celes Chere]

THINK OF THE CHILDREN

do you really want to see them cry

 

[Masamune]

Sorry... I just can't shift from my mind what Squenix have done to Cloud.

Vivster it is.

I will show my support to my chosen candidate

Spoiler: A Letter to Vivi

Vivi,

I am writing this because I have so much to say to you. Foremost is my humble apology for initially thinking that you have no chances in winning against Cloud. In fact, I was doubtful of you ever reaching the semi-finals, but I am not afraid to admit I was wrong. Very wrong. But I am happy. Seeing that you have qualified for the semi-finals has elated me, moreso considering that you are the only non-VII character to qualify. Looking at the poll now, I believe you have what it takes to beat him. You CAN defeat him. YOU MUST!

With this, Vivi, you should already know that I side with you in this battle. Why, you wonder? It is because you are VIVI. Never mind the fact that you share a name with a character from One Piece, you are already one of my all-time favorite character creation in this seemingly endless series of RPGs.

But please do not be mistaken, Vivi, for thinking that I gave you my vote for reason of disliking your opponent as that would be a grave misunderstanding. Cloud is also a character who is close to my heart and will forever form part of my childhood, yet I still find myself drawn towards you and I will not regret giving my vote to you for you, without a shadow of doubt, had touched me most profoundly with your little palms.

Vivi, you must know of the tear I shed when I followed your journey. Of how I wished to share with you your joys and your pains. You had made me reflect on my life, to appreciate what I have, and to never take them for granted. You taught me that, regardless of duration, life is grand as long as we live it to the fullest that we can. I have realized that my existence has meaning.

Look, Vivi. The poll should speak for itself. Not only are you toe-to-toe with THE Cloud Strife, there had also been a time when you were ahead of him. Those number of votes prove that I am not the only one you touched. THERE ARE MANY OF US.

You have struggled, Vivi. For your life, for your meaning, for your existence. Just like the old times, you must again struggle now. Struggle, and just like always, put on a good fight. Have them taste the fruit of your meaningful search for answers, have them feel the grandness of life. Show them the proof of your existence and make them realize what it means to live!

Vivi, just like a father to his son, I am so proud of you. You can do this, Vivi. Have faith in yourself. I believe in you. WE believe in you. SHOW US A MIRACLE!


PIERCE THROUGH THE HEAVENS! GO, VIVI!

Bravo!

 

[Fangu]

your ignorance is appalling

You're right, looking at it now that was rather tasteless Sorry.

Spoiler: More sheep on stone rant

Just to finish the sheep and stone thing - sheep might not have been shopped after all. The place is called Kjeragbolten and you can see the fall isn't as high as it looks:

I had my vote reset to blank btw. There should be love, not devil may care voting (even if Light lost and I am still hurting because of it and nothing much else matters in this poll anymore *dramaface*) Cloud is okay but he's never been one of my favorite characters. And so many people love Vivi.

 

[Master Bates]

^Does that mean one less vote for Cloud?! Then this means Vivi is ahead!

Also, I find it more amusing how your focus is on the sheep on stone and not on the poll. LOL


I said this once and I'll say it again. YOU CAN WIN THIS, LITTLE GUY! MOST OF YOUR VOTES ARE ALL FROM PEOPLE WHO GENUINELY LOVE YOU SO... GO, VIVI!!!

 

[ForceStealer]

Who'd have thought this would turn into such a big deal

 

[Master Bates]

I rarely get my hands on the internet so I'm actually having fun with this. This isn't big deal for me.

 

[Ryushikaze]

So, emotional blackmail, Vivi supporters? You know full well he would not approve.

Vivi am disappoint in you all.

 

[Celes Chere]

Cloud is winning. You willingly send Vivi to his grave and bring tears to his children's eyes. I AM NOT THE MONSTER HERE.

I just noticed - the poll says 22 people voted for Cloud, but lists only 21 names. I think your vote might still be counted, even though your name has been removed. I'm not quite sure what to do about that.
