Well lets see i have a few

Cloud - Well basically because he is cloud
Sephiroth - The long sword etc
tifa - mad matial arts fighting skills
vincent - Obviously because he is vincent and partially because of the chaos half
Shelke - i don't know why i like her truthfully
Rikku - annoying but... well yeah

My favourites are Vincent yuffie CLOUD TIFA AND SEPPHIROTH

Yuffie is my favorite. A lot of people hate her but that's ok. I can kind of understand why. I've always liked happy characters. I also like how she is the only girl that is not out to get a guy. That's always nice. She also wasn't created for the sex appeal. She's relatively flat on top and she looks boyish. And she's a ninja and ninja's are cool. She also proves that she's not just there to be a happy go lucky girls when she steals your materia. And I've always enjoyed the Wutai side quest. Even when captured by Don Cornero she still kept her sense of humor. A also like how she is more physically expressive than the other two girls. If you get the Yuffie date, she will actually kiss Cloud at one point during it. If you have Yuffie in your party during the biggest spoiler in the game at the end of disc one, she will give Cloud a hug. And she is a kick ass fighter. So Yuffie is my favorite.

Cait Sith would be my second favorite. Many people don't like him either. I guess I have a thing for unpopular characters. I always thought that Cait Sith was the most interesting character in the game, the way he slowly turns against Shinra. At first he appears and you think he is just some goofy cat on top of a Moogle. But towards the end of disc one, he proves us wrong when he turns out to be a spy and steals your black materia. Then he pretty much has everyone hostage till the end of disc one. He also actually cares about the people of Midgar. In the early part of the game, we see Reeve trying to talk President Shinra out of raising the energy rates or something like that. Later, he points out to Barret that his terrorist attacks killed over thousands of people. And you can't forget about the end of the game when he was very upset that telling the people to hide in slums may not save them from Meteor after all. It was also nice to have a character spy on Shinra during the game so we could see what they were up too. People say he's useless in battle, but he is meant to be used for defense. If your even in an area where the monsters are really tough, he's a good character to bring if you put cover and HP plus materia on him. I also found him to be a pretty good magic user.


Cid comes in third. I have always found him to be hilarious. I think he is the most quotable in the game. The part where he tells Cloud about his experience with the play is absolutely priceless. He is also a very good fighter which is a plus and his limit breaks are very nice. Even though he can be vulgar and at times seem mean, he always ends up kind of being like that single uncle that helps you shoot off bottle rockets on the fourth of July. And he has the coolest ending pose.

Tifa Yuffie and Cid :]

Yay for Cait Sith love! Finally someone else who loves this character.

mine is defo vincent

ands non ff7 would be Auron

Cloud, he is a very human hero dealing with his own demons & insecurities, on top of that, that whole dark persona thing is pretty cool.

Other characters in my party I just like cuz of their abilities or weapons Cid for his Scimitar & Highwind limit, Red XIII for his Stardust Ray...........& he's a red talking dog for crying out loud, who dosen't like that?!?!?
