Which main girl is your favorite?

As the title says, which main RF heroine is your favorite?

I can't say so much for Sonja or Odette (I consider them both to be the "main heroines" of ToD) since ToD isn't out yet, although I do like them from what I've heard of them. (Tsunderes, gotta love 'em~) (Yes, I consider Sonja a tsundere, although a "Type B" one, unlike Odette who is "Type A." If you don't know what that means, go to the tsundere page on TVtropes. xD)

Overall, though, I really like Mist. Unlike Shara or Mana, she has a distinct personality and is actually pretty entertaining. Although I know that she gets some hate because she's the stereotypical "SODIFMSLDKFMSOZIDFSLKFJSALSK ARGHHHH MAIN HEROINE RAAAAAGEEEE" type. Although I do dislike that people hate her just for that (as she has a personality unlike Mana or Shara, no offense to those who like them), I can see how she could be considered annoying.

Although I do love this conversation between her and Raguna in RFF (don't hate me if I get some stuff wrong) :

Mist: Oh, you're wearing normal clothes today.

Raguna: What? I always wear this.

Mist: Oh! Now I remember, I had this dream that you were wearing strange clothes. You had on bunny ears, and were wearing a long scarf-

Raguna: You can stop right there. :roll:

Those two just remind me of Phoenix and Maya from Ace Attorney so much. xD (Purely from a friendship standpoint, though. I like the Raguna/Mist pairing, but I don't like the Phoenix/Maya pairing.)

I'm going with Mist, too. Mana was just boring (I found most of RF2's heroines boring, at any rate)) and Shara isn't as amusing. So there.

I like pretty much all the main girls, with the exception of Mana.

I mean... I didn't dislike her, but...
She didn't seem all that special to me... :l

In fact, the only girl that I really liked in RF2 was Yue.

But, otherwise, the main girls are usually my favorite for some reason. o_o;
Even Shara.
/who I feel has more personality than she gets credit for xI

I'll have to say, Raven from RF3. The shy girl that has a reason to be shy and closed off. I love her personality, and her deep story ark.

I think by "main girl" they mean the girl who gets the most time in the opening videos. Raven and Micah are certainly popular, and some might think that they're canon because
SPOILER SPOILER
Spoiler:
they're both half-monsters,
but Raven gets as much time as anyone else in the openings. The 3 mains so far are Mist, Mana, and Shara.

I'll have to say I go with Mist, being crazy and all. xD

I love all three main girls. I can't choose just one because they're all special in their own way. Mist is quirkier then the other two and very unique overall, Mana is determined and devoted to both those she loves as well as her dreams, and Shara is true to her beliefs/very accepting of others and passionate about the things that she loves like flowers. They're all generally kind and gentle. And so much more to be honest. I've always felt that the main girls kind of got the short end of the stick in fandom sadly, but that's just my opinion which doesn't count for much, so feel free to ignore me.

The only thing that I'd say though, based on videos that I've seen of Frontier, I do prefer RF1 Mist to RFF Mist. I liked her quirkiness in RF1, but I just kind of felt from what I've seen of her that they took it too far in RFF. But, maybe it would be different if I could play it. Sometimes that does help.

Auhhhg -thinks- I don't really like any of them.... Mist is annoying and a moron, Mana is dull and childish, Shara is bland and useless...

I guess Mana? As a little-sister sort of character... Not romantically at all.

Raven would have made a much better heroine in RF3; she was really the only one who could have fit into the plot cannonically (not a word? Lol). I mean the whole theme of RF3 was fostering human/monster-people relations so the fact that she and Micah were both SPOILERhalf monster pretty much brings the whole thing together.

I guess I'd say Mist. I think her quirkiness is hilarious in RFF (I didn't like her much in RF1), but at the same time I find her too odd for me. Lightning taking away my belly button? Cat washing its face means it's going to rain? whaaaaaa?

I think this conversation is awesome because Raguna actually can craft bunny ears and a long scarf and work in his field while wearing them and it shows. XD

Mistee, (Mist) definitely. Even in your first meeting with her in RF1 she is all ditzy and crazy. :heart:

Raguna:I'm thirsty.
Mist: Here! *gives watepot*

XDDD

After marriage
Mist: Here's you lunch,Raguna!♥ *hands out tomato seeds*
Raguna:......

But all the main girls are likeable in their own way. :)

I'd have to say Rosalind from RF2. What was a pleasant surprise to me was that I first assumed I wouldn't like her. I thought she'd just be another 'rich' girl. But she actually had an excellent personality and quests. I liked her dialog both before and after marriage. Dealing with her brother Max was also surprisingly fun.

Rosalind isn't really a main girl though. I think what the OP meant was the girls that have a ton of time in the openings and are usually the ones that the game pushes you to marry, is around most of the time for a lot of the story stuff, etc. These characters would be Mist, Mana, and Shara. There's also Sonja in ToD (isn't there someone else that someone mentioned?) although this game is only out in Japan.

Tough question then, as I really didn't like any of them and never married one. Mist was the loner with a farm (Where's her family? How'd she get the farm? Why she let me live there?). Mana, well about all I can remember about her is that she had an overbearing dad and that she was the school teacher. Oh, and that she's not a little girl anymore. Shara works in a flower shop. She has a little sister that likes to bite people because she's shy (or something like that). Way too sweet and innocent.

Dang, of the three I'd have to say Mist, since she does have less family issues to deal with. She has no one, I have no one, we might as well be there for each other yes?

I do not count Sonia/Sonja as the main girl of RFO/RFToD. I think Odette is. Because she is the one who finds the MC/gives him a place to stay. She also has a big role in the plot. Sonia doesn't really do anything. She is important but she just does nothing.

Either way the MC of RFToD is my favorite. I like Odette and Sonia more then the rest of the main girls. Although I haven't played the game. My opinion of them now is better. Maybe I'll change my mind after I play the game.

ToD doesn't seem to have a main girl... You've got the childhood friend, Sonia. The girl first to meet you, Odette. Didn't they say "it seemed like love at first sight" with Violet? (I might be mistaken...) And then Lily's there as well... So you've got 4 main bachelorettes there then. That said I think Odette and Azel are canon. /hit

...Ceci was the little girl in RF1 and was the maid in RF2. Not Mana... Mana was new.
