Which one of these two do you prefer? since most classify one or both of them as the main character i thought it would be interesting to see which ones more popular.

Just PLEASE dont flame, i dont wanna see another Aeris VS Tifa style war here.

so posts like :

"Terra is awesome, i really liked it when she Morphed ^_^ Celes was cool too but wasnt as good as terra i think"

are acceptable

but posts like

"LYK ZOMG TERRA RULES - CELES SUCKS THOUGH!! SHES SO POO!"

Are NOT acceptable and i will not hesitate to report offensive posts.

So anyway, now that that has all been said and done.

I prefer Celes more, she was an enigma when you first met her and had some classic lines like "im not a lovesick fool" (or something to that effect anyway) and seemed to have this calm cooler demeaner about her for the majority of the WoB - and it was amazing how she developed - the scene were she stabbed Kefka was proof of how much she developed ^_^ and i loved how she took on the leadership role for the WoR and her relationship with Locke was truly touching ^_^

Dont get me wrong - i do adore Terra - i think shes awesome, but there was just something about Celes which made me like her more ^_^

Now your thoughts?
 
Iliek Terra's backstory a lot more so I'm going to choose her as my favorite of the two in this situation. When you travel to the past and the Esper planet and all that went on between Madonna and Maduin (Terra's parents) you see how deep the plot is getting and how once again the life of one of your main characters is at risk.

Celes is cool, but not much is expanded on her for how much of a role she supposedly plays in the game. Terra is the covergirl, so I'm going with her.
 
I far preferred Terra. I loved her role in the game story-wise, it was very clever having her as part-Esper. I loved how she was also the only one (I think) who could naturally learn magic without equipping magicite. Actually, I think Celes could do that >_<
As for Celes, I despised her. From what I remember, she had a small role (I probably ignored most of what she said) and in battle, she was as useful as a sponge. Her special move was uninteresting and didn't help unless you knew that your enemy was going to use magic next
I'd say Celes is probably my least favourite character from any FF (maybe rivalled by Penelo)
 
I have to go with Terra. She is one of my favorite FF characters ever. I loved her development through out the game from a quite confused girl to a confident warrior at the end of the game. And even though she wanted to find love, she didn't do it in a cliched way buy having a romance with one of the other male character, but she did it by taking care of the children which eventually gave her the strength to keep fighting. And the fact that she was part esper was cool too. And her morph ability was pretty sweet.

I love Celes too though.
 
Terra is my favorite because she could use magic right at the start, she could turn into her esper form, she could use swords ( always had her carry two blades), and throughout most of the game I thought of her as the main character.

I liked some of the scenes Celes was in ( like the opera scene and the part at the beginning of the WoR), but Terra is my favorite.
 
Terra. Simple as that.
I'm still trying to understand Celes' past...
Is it really that underdeveloped??

I loved Terra's personality.
She's very down to earth and collected, even though she's "lost" for the majority of the game. It's sweet when she finally finds herself. =]
 
I preferred Celes, cause she was shy and not. She was a great fighter and very skillful and she made her feelings for locke so obvious.
 
Terra. The morphing thing was awesome, she had a great back story. She had green hair nuff said :P.

However, the Opera Scene with Celes stands as one of my favourite parts in any FF
 
I prefer Terra more than I prefer Celes. I love Terra's past and I love her connection to the Esper world. I thought she was more unique than Celes was and I love how she looks and acts so innocent
 
Terra or Celes

Although Celes up really close is prettier that Terra, I prefer Terras attitude on life....and i love her hair and she is far darker lol:P
 
Umm....How is Terra dark? o_0 she's perhaps one of the most innocent FF characters ever...

which is why i prefer Celes, although Terras innocence Act is Cool Celes' persona is amazing ^_^
 
Well she did kill over 1000 Empire soldiers with her magic. Not something innocent people do. ;) And that's why she ended up getting the slave crown

 
No im fairly sure Terra had the slave crown on when she fried the soldiers....wasn't it Kefkas way of testing her powers out?

Bah! i need to play this game again XD
 
I like them both but i think Celes is a little better than Terra...i mean morph is nice but Celes Runic is much more useful to me.

Plus Celes was a general:)

Hmm... I'll have to play this game again, at least the beggining. I thought they put it on her because she did kill a lot of soldiers. I'm probably remembering wrong.

Well, in her morph form, she does fight naked, and that's not something innocent little girls do. ;)
 
ah the opera. a truly beautiful scene ^_^ that really is something that Gives Celes an edge over Terra, and it cementes her place as one of the two main characters - along with Terra of course ^_^
 
Terra.
because of the whole esper thing. plus, the ending she had was sad and touching.
 
i like terra mainly because she has more of a story to tell celes is good as well as far as homour goes because she does have some funny lines like 'im a general not some opera floozy!' and things like that
