Tanis Half-Elven
He was an awesome villain, which made me want to kill him. And the whole Aeris thing didn't help him any in my book.
I think I may have been the only person to be happy when Aeris died.
Oh, how strange I am.
Anyway, back to the original topic...
I definitely wouldn't hug Sephiroth's knees by any means, but his character was awesome. The whole mother thing got a bit weird at times, but that's okay. After all, Cloud had a little Sephiroth's-puppet thing going on.
