Just how many accounts did that guy create to rig that vote?

But of course.

Suppose it's good for FF that it was'nt 2014. Otherwise Cartman or Butters would have taken the prize without contest.

Edit:

Randy deserves it the most however, for his butt achingly sincere performance.

She's the worst FF character of the worst series of FF games ever made. How's that even possible? I'd go ahead and say ellie is the best character of 2013. No one brings it to that level of performance or emotional connection with the character on screen like Ashley Johnson was able to do. Or even Joel played by Troy Baker. and I played all the big games of 2013 that should be considered. Well besides any of these stupid lighting games after that mess that was 13. I wouldn't even have put lighting as a contender.

Joel from TLOU was in 2013 so that makes that result ridiculous

Joel and ellie

Oh my.

Definitely the best.

She is better than Lightning, and I'm assuming the award is in Japan.

With a playstation exclusive award, from a Japanese company.

She's a great character. Unfortunately, the games she's in are mostly crap.

Voted for by readers of "Deaf & Blind Magazine"

pathetic but expected.

Haters gon hate but she's a great character. Dont let your irrational hatred of her games cloud your judgment

Mrgrgr...

At first I was confused because LR came out last month, but since this is Japan the game came out last year so I can understand why she won. Obviously Joel and Ellie had no chance there.

Had Ellie shown some more skin, she would have won for sure.

Every time I see her face, all I can think about is hoping that Square-Enix doesn't f*** up FFXV, they screw that one and I'm giving up on the series. They almost brought back the good casts with FFXII, but NOPE, let's screw it up again with FFXIII. *goes back to playing Bravely Default and loving everything about it*

*barf*

@Capitan_Kid: the terminator had more emotion than lightning. She may as well have been a robot.

such a boring character from the most boring FF . She can only win in Japan since they going to care about her looks, which I still don't get

Okay. I didn't believe it when SW said the character wasn't popular. Whether you like her or not....she must have a following for Square Enix to think so.....

What about the… I don't know actual good characters?

A terrible character.

LIES!!!!!

Chrom from Fire Emblem was pretty boss.

You damn right

I want to marry Ringabel and Lucina.

Great. Now we're gonna see Lightning in the Kingdom Hearts games.

t('-')t off, Lightning.

Hotter, too.

Also, I think it's hysterical how Square Enix somehow manages to keep getting jerked off over the XIII series.

bullshit

Feeding Toriyama's and waifu. Unhealthy move. I thought having Nomura's FF versus named as FFXV was letting Toriyama's 'lightning' fantasy down easy.

Well Shes my second favorite FF female characters so cool.

She looks coo to bad I wont find out anythign about her since the game shes in is pretty dang ugly and doesint get me excited.

I wonder if this thread would have been made if Lightning didn't win the awards...

I think GTA V's Trevor was my favorite character of 2013, game would have been a lot crazier if it were all Trevorcentric.

Im guessing this is a japanese thing since its such an incredibly awful choice.

Who?

I'm shocked it wasn't her right here VVVV.

*Looks at Bravely Default and Fire Emblem responses*

I think it needs to be re-iterated that 1) This is Dengeki Playstation and 2) BD and FE:A are 2012 games in Japan. :p

Still, a terrible, terrible choice.

PS3 ports of Vita games don't count, I'd imagine. :p (Project Diva f was released on the Vita in 2012 then ported to the PS3 in 2013)

pfft Meiko is better :p.

proboly if someone saw her on the list so they can go "ha ha what a lame character" "This proves she was awful" and (insert typical SE going downhill and this proves it response).

Is the language/cultural rift that great between Japan and everybody else?

May god have mercy on their souls....

Very attractive character model regardless of the games.

Maybe she is a less monotone character in her japanese voice?

Lighting is hot.. just sayin :P

I played LR all in Japanese, I can't go back now. Sorry Troy Baker!!!

She had no personality wtf.
