How did you feel about Lulu? - Page 2

Personally, I liked her. I think she was handy in battle and looked the part of a person who could use black magic; if you know what i mean.
Her weapons were....lets say different, but I kind of liked them too

I liked Lulu, though I agree she was harsh o Wakka and Tidus at the beginning but this is because of her history with Chappu. I think this gives her characters more depth. Throughout the game you find out more about Lulu's past, such as Chappu, Father Zuke and that other summoner she guarded who died in the Cavern of the Stolen Fayth. I found this quite interesting. I liked Lulu's personality, some of the things she said tended to be quite funny. I liked her coldness and her calmness. she always seemed to know what she was doing and was quite knowledgeable. As a fighter, I thought her magic was very useful, and if you taught her whit magic abilities she could double up as a white mage.

Personally U liked her, I liked all the characters in FFX so that means her too, I sympathized with her situation, and the fact that she had lost the person she loved most, but was still able to continue her life of being Yuna's guardian. I think her coldness is just the way she dealt with her tragedy, not wanting to get close to anyone again so she can't get hurt again... Chapu was a lucky guy

I felt Lulu was a very interesting character, not only within the game, but throughout the Final Fantasy name. She was indeed, cold and somewhat fiesty. And I thought that was great to have in the game. I don't often see female characters being with a personality like that, in which the character can have a great dedication (in protecting Yuna, for this case) and yet still appear to be distant from a social world. And I know she wasn't anti-social, that's not what I'm saying. I'm saying her attitude just portrays her as one who is wary of strangers, yet with great confidence in herself.

She had to be my second favorite character in the game. I thought she was the most rational out of the group and even though she could be cold at times, I thought that she still was really caring.

At first, I really didn't care for her. As I progressed, though, she became her own character with a deep reason for everything. I really began to like her after that. But yeah, she probably could have looked a little less sleazy...

I agree. The game would have been just as popular if she hadn't shown that much cleavage.

When did boobs and cleavage suddenly become the gateway to the Seventh Circle of Hell? Don't get me wrong, I love this board, but any time a character is dressed half-provocatively, you get a virtual army (not just this thread, BTW--and it's mostly guys, strangely enough) decrying Square for pandering to the lowest denominator.

Sorry for the rant, but it's just something I've been running across with quite a bit of frequency lately. The female form is hardly pure evil, and the men in FFX in many cases are wearing as little (and often less) than Lulu does.

We weren't "decrying Square to the lowest denominator," as you put it. We're just saying that Square didn't really have a need to use sex appeal to bring interest to the game. Lulu would have as great a character as if she hadn't shown that much cleavage. And yeah, male characters in a game may sometimes wear less than the females, but then again, they have less that would be considered provacative if shown in public. Lulu's costume design isn't a bad thing. It just didn't seem necessary to advertise the game.

True, although she wasn't featured in much (if any) advertisements for FFX. Here in the States, it was focused entirely around Yuna, who in the original, was hardly a sex object.
