FFIX character design is ugly as fuck.
It just goes to show that this is all objective. I personally love both looks, and don't think there's ever been a mainline FF game that had anything close to all around terrible and incompetent character design. This isn't a "Nomura is bad" problem. (The guy's work is amazing.) This is a "SE not using more variety" problem.
I really don't see the what's effeminate or androgynous about Nomura's characters.
Kula (Kuja?) though? I played it in Japanese and thought it was a woman. I was like...wut? when I played it in English and realized my mistake. Seriously. Shakira would be jealous of those hips.
Yeah, I remember when FFIX just came out, and some of my friends looking at me like I completely fucking lost it when I showed them Kuja and was trying to explain to them that he's in fact a dude.
