Who were the other nominees?

 

[Uchigatana]

Toriyama rigged the votes to show that Lightning is the most popular character ever.

 

[djplaeskool]

Keep Hatin'

 

[sjay1994]

...I still don't get the Lightning love.

I still have not met anyone who says " I love lightning"

I mean, people say they like her design, but I have never met someone who says they like her character.

Saw it on twitter and was looking if there was a thread around for it.
Totally Deserved!

 

[Szadek]

Lightning Rises: Final Fantasy XIII - Coming to a next gen console near you.

[The Real ManaByte]

Final Fantasy XIII collection and Final Fantasy XIII-4 Incoming! FFXV and Kingdom Hearts 3 but on the back burner for another generation!


Thank you based Square

They'll both be released...and both will have Lightning (and Lara Croft) pre-order skins.

Square and Toriyama, trolling the world:

This is aborable

 

[injurai]

Humanity

[Beant]

BOW TO YOUR GODDESS!

That gif could be considered spoilerish to people who haven't gotten that far in Chuunii

 

[Sub_Level]

You have 10 seconds to describe Lightning's personality or discernible chatacter traits beyond scowling at serious things sometimes.

Go

 

[PRjumpman124]

Yuji Abe is unimpressed.

 

[Lashley]

What the fuck is this shit

 

[ZeroXZee]

 

[Rafterman]

Then why did her game bomb?

Because it sucked?

 

[Frolow]

Probably beating a dead horse here, but why does Japan like Lighting so much?

 

[Ogawa-san]

Fucking people liking things I don't. They're the worst.

 

[CriterionDog]

THE WORLD CAN ALWAYS USE SOME MORE LIGHTNING!! <3

 

[PirateKing]

Was it the new breast size that did it?

 

[Hexa]

That gif could be considered spoilerish to people who haven't gotten that far in Chuunii

WHAT I WAS GOING TO SAY GOD DAMN IT!

 

[cameron]

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Because it sucked?

Except it doesn't.

 

[SJRB]

I don't understand what's going on in this thread, does Lightning suck or something?

 

[Dysun]

much lightning
no sales

 

[Einbroch]

Because it sucked?

Uh, no. It's actually quite good.

 

[Dark Schala]

Except it doesn't.

Except people have different opinions. Surprise.

 

[Maintenance]

Lightning getting an award and getting spoiled on Chuuni? Why God, why.

 

[BurnOutBrighter]

Yeap, see in you FFXV Lightning, along with all your crazy costumes.

 

[Falk]

I like how the thread title is all-caps.

 

[Rolf NB]

Who were the other nominees?

Full option list:
*Lightning
*I don't work for Square Enix
*not sure

 

[chickdigger802]

so lightning is the official mascot of playstation now i believe.

 

[EvilKatarn]

does Lightning suck or something?

What led you to that idea?

 

[SatelliteOfLove]

Who were the other options?

Yeah, who were those picked over?

 

[Freaky Fred]

good. let her go out on top and let's never see her in another game again please

 

[stryke]

 

[Ashes]

Square and Toriyama, trolling the world:

Cuteness overload!!! How can anyone be mad at that?

 

[DECK'ARD]

 

[Toth]

You go girl!

But seriously, people really underestimate her appeal in Japan. I don't get it either, though I do like her design and arc.

 

[Dark Schala]

I like how the thread title is all-caps.

Hey, man. You've been on GAF long enough to know that FF13 threads need to attract the most amount of attention.

 

[hughesta]

Remake of FFVII starring Lightning incoming.

 

[Ironjam]

I see it was worth increasing her cup size.

 

[SolsticeZero]

 

[falconxcrunner09]

Really?!? What were the other options?

 

[boredandlazy]

Lightning was barely in that one though...

Still, whilst I don't agree with this I don't hate Lightning either. Still, the reactions are funny.
