Vaan

Ok, Is it just me but are you scared about this character too? When I just saw the face of him for the first time I mistaked him for a girl. I was kinda hoping that they would have a cool main character for the next FF. If it wasn't for the open jacket he would look like a girl.Here is a picture of him:

I think Vaan(hopefully correctly pronounced "vain" and NOT "vahn"), looks cool. I can't judge since I've never played the game, but since we've had our share of well differed opinionated main heroes in the series, this one'll leave a LOT of debate.

I dunno, I haven't seen anything but negative comments about Vaan's looks, be it from gamers or reviewers or magazines.
OPM had a kick out of calling Vaan a metrosexual for quite some time, last year, even.
And everyone seems to agree about that.

I haven't seen one positive comment about how he looks.

He doesn't scare me, but I'm a bit tired of pretty boys that seem to spend a lot of time in front of the mirror before heading out the house to save the world, but, I haven't played the game, I might warm up to him once I get to learn more about his personality, but, really, why can't the characters like Basch be the leader once in a while?

It's interesting that you mention that. The first time I saw Vaan I immediately thought "homo." I asked all my ff friends what they thought but no one really had an oppinion. The HUGE pants and gay little vest type thing is either really gay or really metro. I'm not gonna let it spoil the game though.

Why does it matter so much what teh character looks like? I dont think you should base your opinions only around a characters looks. This is all i hear from some people:

Yeah he's much different than the other FF main male characters, but I guess we have to wait and see who he really is beyond the metro appearance.

Yeah when I first saw Vaan I thought he looked slightly... feminine? I guess that's the only way I can explain it. But when I first saw Zidane from FFIX I deffinetly thought he was a girl, more than an other char Ive seen.

Vaan reminds me of Tidus a little, but I dont believe he is anything like Tidus apart from the blonde hair good lookin' guy. I think he's going to be a great character, he seems like a true Hero who starts off in a crappy little slum sort of place and builds up to save the world(like every FF...), he's gonna be interesting to play as and get to know as I play through the game.

Vaan is a big bishie, but it wont get in my way when playing the game. It's slightly annoying how they've made him look like that though.....

Eri · 10-11-2006, 02:21 PM

yeah, vaan looks queer...for final fantasy XIII-versus, the guy looks HOT! hes got a dark cloud look goin for him

Tifa Lockhart · 10-12-2006, 12:55 AM

I think he looks like a boy and is a cool and handsome kind.Howcome you think he looks like a girl?

Merlin · 10-12-2006, 06:21 AM

Perhaps they are trying to get more girls to play by doing a Shonen-Ai angle or some shit. It would explain why he's 'just friends' with Penelo... he has his eyes on the men... XD Hell just look at the picture. If a guy posed like that, I'd threaten to nad-shot him, because he obviously doesn't know what to do with them...

I agree that Vaan does look a bit metro..but hey, in my opinion both Tidus and Squall were on the verge of being metro too. And correct if i'm wrong but Vaan is much younger than either of them isn't he? Not since the old days have any of the main characters truely been manly..most are strangely very unisex looking. That's more of a Nomura thing i'd say.
