Kingdom Hearts made stereotypes of ALL of them, even Cloud. Even then, Aerith wasn't a Mary Sue, moreso flat as were the others. You must not know the correct definition of a Mary Sue. Their original counterparts are much deeper, so if you can not give it a chance, then you're missing out.

12. I disagree, but you secret made me laugh.

18. Lack of crack!= smart people. I like to considder myself decently smart, but I also take as very serious business the true spirit of crack inside me.

50. So... you.... decided she was a Mary Sue WITHOUT even playing the original source. That's some very impressive Doing It Wrong, good sir.

7: Static Shock, huh. Haven't seen that one in a while. It was pretty interesting - I always wondered where it went off to.

16: ...I've never heard that theory before reading your secret, but come to think of it, it does make sense, actually. Scary...

54: Wow, a Gakuen Alice secret?! You don't see those every day. That's a cute series though - I want to try to find more of it if I can. *has only seen a little*

People are Idiots #2: Would you believe that series is part of the inspiration for a Yu-Gi-Oh alternate universe of mine?

12- A+++

30- Haha, this pretty much sums up my thoughts on 90% of the characters in FF8.

34- I couldn't concentrate either... because I knew some of my friends were watching and I wasn't looking forward to trying to explain Jack's burial and the actor they chose to play Gray and the random shot of Owen on the roof during John's speech (when he was meant to still be with the Hoix) and everything else that went with that episode.

52.) I write yaoi and adore it, but am more into the darker side when it comes to writing out sex scenes, though admittedly I do love fluff. You know, wanna balance the stories out like real life love would be, whereas I'm positive gay sex isn't always dark and angry. Live action hardcore gay sex is wonderful, however. I just wish I could find more of it that was less oral and more anal. (Oral's fine but anal's better.)

14. No one can top Nimoy's Spock. Nobody.
19. Because the characters belong to you, am I right?
36. That scene gets me every time. I think it was the first time I shed tears over an anime.
42. I can't even tell who they are with all the Revelations text over their faces.
52. Fanbrats and their behaviors are annoying, but I hope you're not trying to say that hardcore gay porn represents realism in gay relationships, because it doesn't. Porn is fantasy. Yaoi is fantasy. Most slash and yaoi fans realize this. And most yaoi fans have seen gay porn at some point.

Also: raep can be good fun to read about.

I think it's more about gay SEX than gay relationships

See: the fact that a lot of fan made yaoi is light, slight undressing, kissing, compromising positions but rarely hardcore stuff

i could be misreading the secret though

[identity profile] cgaussie.livejournal.com 2008-04-17 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
13. That scene touched me too, and surprised me since I hadn't seen the Warners in years and had forgotten about how sweet they could be with each other. I'm an only child myself, but I too wanted a relationship like that with someone.

16. Holy shit. Now I'm considering that canon. That's spooky. It would be like that show, the General Hospital or whatever it was called. The whole thing created by a kid holding a snow globe.

23. ...I like the song too. But I was never Rick-Rolled. I should have tried harder. Damn.

38. REPEAT!

Dammit, you and the poster below are making me really want to play FFVII again. Unfortunately, my second disc is borked near the end, and keeps jamming on the giant robot boss fight. Though I guess I could go play it up to that point anyway.

Wow. Okay. Bullet points time, because I can't even begin to address this with paragraphs! (Not that I'm sure everyone else hasn't already, as I smell a troll, but I haven't really ranted on FFVII here lately, so it must be that time again)


  • KH VERSIONS ARE AU. Yeah, really. Original games Squall and Cloud aren't as mopey as often. Sephiroth actually has more than three lines. They get a lot more screentime, and thus actually have DEVELOPMENT and complexity.

    And can you guess who else ALSO gets way more complexity, development, and interesting traits to them in their original game? Yeah. Aerith. She's not a mary sue. Play the damn game before you judge, plz.

    FF characters in KH are a series of cameos, nothing more. They're there for the previous fans to enjoy, not for you to judge based on.


  • Cloud/Aerith isn't canon. Yeah, I know. Crazy, right? A videogame where the hero/heroine ship isn't canon? Well, yeah. Habeeb it.

    Neither is Cloud/Tifa, while we're on the matter. Or Cloud/Yuffie, Sephiroth/Cloud, Cloud/Red, or Ifalna/Cloud (oh man, does someone ship that? Please tell me someone ships that). Pretty cool, huh? It was left ambiguous on purpose. You can ship whatever you damn well please with Cloud. I prefer Mukki/Cloud, but that's another story entirely. theirloveissohottubdubcon

    So yeah. Shipwars aside, you don't have to ship it. Norly.


  • She dies like halfway through. IT'S LIKE HALFWAY THROUGH THE FUCKING GAME. SUCK IT UP. She's actually really great in your party. The first time I played the game, I was 12, and a fanbrat from hell. I thought she was stupid and frilly, and I was still upset to lose her from my party. But you can always just be petty and not use her. This is FF, after all, you can always be petty and refuse to use a character as long as they're not the main one. I think I killed Wakka whenever I had to use him in FFX, just because he irrationally annoyed me.


  • You and I have vastly different ideas of mary sues.

    I don't know what bodily crevace the idea that Aerith is a mary sue came from, but you might want to jam it back in there before you approach the fandom. You want a mary sue white mage, there's plenty of them in RPGs. Aerith? Not really one of them.

    Sure, if you approach the game with all the maturity of a 12 year old fanbrat, completely disregard the fact that she's fucking amazing, and view the game with the bias of "she's getting in the way of my hot sephywephykins/cloudybaby buttsex omg unf unf" then uh... yeah. I guess she can come off as a mary sue. I know I thought so. But as you might have guessed, I deserved to have been killed before I was allowed internet access at that time. What's your excuse?

I'm sorry, but Kingdom Hearts convinced you she's a sue? Other than being the mandatory character that explains the basics, glaring at Leon, making Cloud uncomfortable due to his inability to keep a secret, and healing Yuffie... What the hell did she do that made you think that?

12. AMAZING. A++++

16. Wasn't there a 4chan /a/ thread on that several weeks ago?

1. You're not alone!

16. HOLY CRAP!!! That's actually a really interesting/depressing theory. Now I won't be able to get that out of my head next time I see an episode of Pokemon...

20. Kishi fails at writing female characters. Period. I've dropped the manga a long time ago (the characters aren't the only things that are bad in it...) but the last time I checked, all she did was get ready to fight Jiraiya only for Pein to shove her aside and fight him instead. Does she even have a personality?

29. That was my first ever slash pairing! I miss the glory days of Digimon...

30. I actually agree. Squall was always an annoying prick to me, and I hated him even more than Rinoa (who the whole fandom seems to want to burn). But I can't deny that he's hot, especially in the FMV's.

50. I seriously don't know where to begin with this secret. First of all, Kingdom Hearts rapes the characterization's of ALL the Final Fantasy characters (Setzer, anyone?). Judging that she's a Mary Sue when she barely gets any screen time is a big no-no. Second, she has a very different personality in FFVII, and her romantic relationship with Cloud is not even 100% canon (what do you think all the Cloud/Aeris vs. Cloud/Tifa debates are for, anyway?). Don't be so quick to make assumptions before playing the official game.

[identity profile] blackjedii.livejournal.com 2008-04-17 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't know about Kingdom Hearts because I lost interest halfway through, but in the original FF7 well...

She is spunky. She is the last of her kind and she also has a weird power to "hear" the planet. She also ends up becoming a (somewhat) angel/god-like figure after her death and is able to cure everyone of Geostigma in Advent Children.
So she does have potential Sue-ish traits if you want to see it that way. Or if you don't want to, or if you just want to leave her out of your party altogether and use someone else instead.
Someone as cool as Cloud though? Ehh, you might re-think that once you play FF7 and get to see how messed up and emo and such he can get. It's less 'cool' and more 'he spends the biggest portion of the game finding out that his personality isn't even HIS OWN' deal.

Aerith isn't half as Sue-ish as Micaiah from FE10 though. My goodness I need to start playing that game again.

Re: 50, just cause I thought about it

[identity profile] paperclipchains.livejournal.com 2008-04-17 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
If having powers/mysterious abilities is Sueish, then she's really not much worse than half her teammates and the antagonist.
