Sazh. It seems there has been a reappraisal of Vanille, I can see it. Hope and Snow had potential, not realised by the writing of the game. Fang is a cool design but mostly just there. Lightning is just a terribly cynical example of a company trying to recapture what worked in the past (in this case, Cloud) without actually understanding what it was that made those things good in the first place.

As for Jihl, top tier Nomura design and thats no doubt why she was so central to the marketing - FFXIIIs whole thing was its visuals so of course you put your best looking character designs upfront. The way they handled her in the game though was actually a little insulting? I normally like rugpulls where a story is setting something up only to swerve but her last scene is a swerve into a battle against a profoundly uninteresting character who you fight three times anyway.

I dunno, in a game as colorful as FF13, Jihl looks kinda...she looks like a leftover NPC from FF12.
