Pink is my least favorite color. Ever. However, there are beautiful piles of pixels in games who deserve to be spotlighted for how they pull off the color pink. Some deadly, some cute, and some just plain stunning.. here are five ladies of the gaming world who can wear pink at any time they damn well please! These are in no particular order.

1. Lightning & Serah - Final Fantasy XIII
I totally understand why Snow was so hellbent on saving Serah. Girl is HOT. All jokes aside though, Serah is also sweet, and the more helpless of the two sisters. She's the one being saved, rather then doing the saving. The few cut scenes you do get of her in the game really made me wish there was more of her, and a part of me just really likes her. I find her to be absolutely adorable, and she compliments Lightning's personality perfectly, being everything that Lightning is not.
Lightning on the other hand, is quite the opposite of her sister, but equally as hot. Lightning is one of the main protagonists of FFXIII, and you get a lot of character development on her throughout the game. She kicks ass, and looks good doing it. Her moves in battle are quick, sexy, and everybody loves a girl who can take care of herself right? Lightning will need no saving, as she's tough in both battle and in mind. Lightning may seem bitter, and hardened, but her dedication to her mission and friends is something that makes her all the more desirable.
2. Myuria Tionysus - Star Ocean: The Last Hope
I'm surprised that the enemies aren't dazed and intoxicated by her beautiful flowing hair, among other things. Myuria is so much more then that however, and she's one of my favorite characters from Star Ocean. Not only beautiful, she's an irreplaceable part of your party, as her magical abilities and summoning is incredible useful... and deadly.
Like a lot of beautiful women in video games, Myuria seems mysterious, flirty, but also a tough character to open up to. Fear not though, as Myuria is a very well rounded character with very human like characteristics and a very heartbreaking back story. Oh, I've always had a thing for elves, so add more points for those sexy ears too!
3. Presea Combatir - Tales of Symphonia
Ah, Presea. Although 12 in terms of appearance, there is much more to Presea that meets the eye, but I won't spoil that for those of you who have never played Tales of Symphonia. ;) Being that Tales of Symphonia is my favorite game of all time, I'm a little biased when I say that I absolutely love Presea.
Presea's story is a complicated one, and absolutely breaks my heart. I love Presea more for her incredibly complex story and how she plays into the game more then I do her looks, but that doesn't change the fact that she rocks the pink hair! A tiny 12 year old child wielding a gigantic axe is badass, wouldn't you agree? Also, the custom outfits you can get in the game for her are all flippin' adorable and make you go, "awwww!"
4. Estellise Sidos Heurassein - Tales of Vesperia
Try saying her full name 5 times fast!
Estellise (or Estelle for short) is decked out head to toe in pink, but I love her for it!
Estelle is a young noblewomen, a Princess in fact, who has never seen the outside world before she sets out on an adventure with the main protagonist, Yuri. As you can imagine, this makes for hilarious dialogue on her part, and her innocence makes you shake your head, but laugh at the same time.
Estelle is reserved, compassionate, caring, and her unique sense of humor and words of wisdom makes me really love Estelle as a character. Not to mention that her place in your party is vital, as she's your white mage and one of the main players in the game. A damsel in distress at some points, a great friend and party member at others, Estelle makes this list, easily.
5. Leslie Ferrarti - Arc Rise Fantasia
Leslie is one of the only characters on this list who is only here strictly for her mannerisms and looks, as everything else about her is painfully average. Leslie is the typical flirty and seductive type. She know she is good looking, and she uses that to her advantage, seducing men all the like. It suits her character perfectly, and I can't imagine Leslie covering up, as she just wouldn't be Leslie! As for what else she brings to the table, she's a character that frustrates me, but in a tragically good way. Because of Leslie's mission, she is constantly torn between sides, and after betraying you, she'll turn around and try to make it up to you.
Part of me is constantly frustrated that she won't pick a side, but another part of me misses her meddling when she's not around! Leslie is talented with her hands (as one can imagine) and wields her gun in a deadly, fast, and sexy fashion. Her flirtatious ways with your male party members can also be comical, and deep down she is determined, despite her exterior.

There you have it! Five ladies from games that I have quite enjoyed. As I said, completely random, and there are definitely more ladies out there who deserve some credit! I want to do more lists like these, so please leave suggestions in the comments! I hope that you have enjoyed this list.
1. Exactly! As a pair of sisters, Lightning and Serah work well together as reflections of each other. Lightning's all aggressive and independent while Serah's all serene and submissive. Maybe that's why she's practically going all lesbo about Lightning in the FFXIII-2 trailers...
ReplyDelete2. Lol, with those clothes, I'd doubt that the enemies would even notice her hair... let alone be dazed by it. And elf ears do, indeed grant a +80 bonus to sexiness. She be rockin' them!
3. Aww! She's definitely the most adorable of the bunch! I really like how her axe matches her attire, too, since the grey of the axe looks like her dress and the white/silver on the axe looks like her boot toes and gauntlets. But, I definitely can't see her using that axe to brutally kill an enemy. It's just not in her face...
4. Hee hee. Estelle looks so pure. Her dress sorta reminds me of a flower, with its petals pointing down. Maybe the devs wanted it to be symbolic of her budding outside of her previous sheltered life. Oh yeah. And I think she looks rediculously cute, too.
5. Damn that seductiveness/indecisiveness! I guess it's unfortunate that she's conflicted between belonging to two different sides... but when she's dressed like that, it's not hard to see why both sides want her! >u>
This was a nice list! As for a suggestion about other lists... how about your top cool/badass/awesome characters. Perhaps that's thinking too inside the box, but that'd be interesting! Ooh! Perhaps a list of some games that need much more credit than they're due. That'd be cool!
What thedonkey87 said I would like to see a list of cool/badass/awesome characters for a suggestion and when I was reading the list it kinda made you sound kinda like a lesbian sorry, but that is what came to mind when reading your thoughts about each character.
ReplyDelete@gamerdude: That does not offend me, however, you should change your views to sexuality and be more open. Sexuality is not as black and white as finding something beautiful and therefore being one sexuality or the other. I am heterosexual, as I have feelings of love and lust, and emotion towards men, not women. I just admire women, as a fellow women and can appreciate why men find them attractive.
ReplyDelete@niK sorry deleted my other post didn't make any sense after rereading it. Anyways I don't see anything wrong with ladies loving other ladies just like men loving other men I was just posting my thoughts about your writing and what it was calling out to me.
ReplyDeleteYou didn't include Popuri? :o I'm shocked.
