Top 10

[LNK]

Thought of a fun idea yesterday (it's probably been done on here though) With the remake right around the corner now, would people be interested in doing some top 10 lists from Final Fantasy? They can be anything you can think of (weapons, side characters, villains, super bosses, songs, locations, etc) We can start now, or when it gets even closer

I love the idea, but I don't know all the games well enough to contribute; I'm too much of a filthy casual.

X winning over VII surprised me, I fully expected it to be near the top but wow. Fully expecting the LTD twitter psychos to start murdering each other over that Aeris/Tifa difference in the character polls too.

The almost completely even split between guys and girls voting is really interesting, I'd love to see the metrics for an equivalent vote in the US or Europe.

 

[Theozilla]

FFX is really well loved in Japan, even moreso than in the English speaking West.

 

[The Twilight Mexican]

Yeah, this isn't the first big poll like this in Japan that FFX has won over FFVII. There was another ten-ish years ago, I want to say.

Fully expecting the LTD twitter psychos to start murdering each other over that Aeris/Tifa difference in the character polls too.

This really shouldn't surprise anyone, even if the FFX thing did. Aerith has always been the most popular heroine from FFVII.

Every hero's gangsta until the Blitzball Player starts laughing insanely.
