Who is the best girl? And why is it Altina?

[明星ヒマリ]

Why is she so perfect?

Worst is Alisa, because she is once again shoved down our throats when nobody asked for it.

I'll take 1 Alisa please.

I did and I like her even less now.

She's the closest thing to Rean's heart.

After finishing the second one, Alisa still edges it for me, but Laura and Fie are now tied for second. Millium's third in the rankings, she'd be a cool friend to hang out with.

Altina is like a weaker version of Omega Quintet's Aria.

If I had the talent to do fanart, I would draw them both in a scene.

A lot of the characters are 1-2 and sometimes 3 note checklists of 'popular' anime tropes.
They aren't excessively bad (we all know Sera would be a fun drinking buddy) but they aren't excessively good either, both in writing and in execution/design. And the blatant fancervice in some of them is kind of annoying. At least with Tales series, the clothes actually seem 'normal' for what people would wear in those worlds.

Nobody really 'stands out' as amazingly written 3dimensional character you'd totally hang with in real life. Granted all of them have some good moments but they are far and few between.

I don't hate any of them, but very few of them make me go 'no way I'd be caught dead at a party with them' which most characters i end up 'disliking' kinda do.

lol get ready for fan service overload in CS3 and CS4. Kluger basically wears SM suits in CS4.

Tales game is more tame probably because it is a very popular series already, while the more niche game tends to have more fan service to increase sales.


For the CS characters, I think there are just too many of them, and the story spreads too thin, many of them did not get proper development yet, I am looking forward for more character development for the old characters in CS3 and 4.

To be honest, my first impression for Altina and Juna are: haven't I seen them already? They seems to overlap with existing character already, Altina is Fie with Millium ability, Juna is like a way more tsundere version of Alisa. I am sure they will get more interesting later, but Falcom seems to only have a few of those character archetypes, they should expands their available pool of character archetypes.

Tales seems more tame in my opinion because it's fanservice by design rather than intent.
The outfits aren't 'designed' for any form of fanservice (arousal or otherwise) they're usually designed as part of that world's daily wear. (the rare exceptions being things like Velvet's prison rags which she wears for like 1% of the whole game) There are times it can get out of hand, but nowhere near as blatant in terms of 'this is what you like about us right??' as CS series lol

If the clothes that the Tales chars wore were DLC outfits, everyone would be using torches and pitchforks at bamco's doors and calling it fanservice. It's their function and intended function that makes something 'fancervice' not what it looks like.

The Tales Protagonists need to stand out because the rest of the cast dresses just as (if not more) exotically :P so yes, some designs do come across as fanservice, doesn't automatically make that the intent.

Literally All of Fies outfits are fanservice through and through. There's no reason or excuse for it, it's just there. The fact that the casual clothes are DLC is enough proof of this. Really ruins the idea that these characters would wear clothes like this when their 'casual' clothes are well...normal... lol

Looks wise it has to be Alisa, Sarah, and Laura. Although, go back and look at Gaius' mom. She's a smoke show.

Personality - I like Alisa, Laura, Fie, Sarah, and Millium, but all for different reasons or different scenes.

I am actually ok with Fie's outfit, because I was given the impression that female jager likes to wear revealing outfit (maybe it is easier to move, also can distract males, who knows)...

There was the one character in Crossbell game who was a female jager, about the same age as Fie. and wear similar revealing outifts, so Fie is not the first. If you have not play the Crossbell game already, I don't want to spoil too much, but she will be in Cold Steel 3, likely to be Fie's opponent.

[Syrin]

Fiona is hot too

[Bravozuluf]

Laura is best girl in the series.
♥♥♥♥ you,
fight me.

But really, how can one game have so many best girls?

[Oguzhan]

I don't really have a problem with Fie's outfit in CS2 , its fitting of an ex yeager. Her CS3 outfit on the other hand is VERY out of hand.
