I recently came across a discussion about Tifa and the hardships she endured in Final Fantasy VII, which got me thinking. Are there any other female characters in the series who have had it even worse? I’d love to hear your thoughts and examples!

What about Yuna from FFX? She learns from a young age that she’s destined to sacrifice herself to save the world. Her journey is filled with loss—losing Tidus in the end just adds to her tragic story. It really hits hard!
Garnet from FF9 definitely takes the cake. Her life was full of trauma—losing her mom at sea while escaping, only to be adopted by a queen who went mad with power. She even had her summoner horn removed and faced genocide at the hands of her adoptive mother. Talk about a rough start!
Wow, I had forgotten how intense her story is. She really went through the wringer!
I’d have to say that all of the female characters go through a lot, honestly. It’s hard to argue who suffered the most because they all have their own unique struggles. It’s so heavy!
Absolutely! Each character has their own demons, and trying to rank them just seems pointless.
So true! She had to navigate so much pain while trying to bring hope to everyone else.
