I like her because she always reminds me of lightning for some reason and that she kicks ass.

While I still don't understand the "boob" thing (considering that when you look at her sideways her boobs are hardly bigger than Kairi's sometimes and the CGI didn't make them look too good), she's popular because she's made as fanservice bait for horny boys and can fight.
Let's be real. She was popular before she even had a character or story for those reasons.
The fact that she didn't disappoint just ended up more in her favor.
That's not bad right?
If people don't mind having very shallow reasons for liking a character, then, yeah.

Her being punished has nothing to do with how half the series was retconned to be because of her magic... which only worked when you didn't need it >_>;
And that happened before she ever got near to the RoD
Let's be honest though; guys aren't the only ones that do that. Girls do that too.
lol right. You can't blame guys... they like boobs. My best guy friend is very nice and polite but a guy. He can't but notice girl's things. We were playing Super Street Fighter IV and One of the girls outfits show her whole ass and he was talking to me and he just stopped in mid-sentence to look at it. xD Its in their nature.

And actually, although I'll admit that Aqua's sex appeal and ability to kick ass was what got me to notice her, I feel that there was a lot more to her in the end than anyone saw coming. And that was what made her my favorite character.
She was the Wild card that pretty much saved the worlds from one cruel fate, only to unintentionally set up another, but perhaps slightly less bad, disaster for everyone. I mean, let's face it, what sort of mayhem and chaos would've transpired across the worlds if MX and Vanitas had succeeded with the xBlade and had managed to begin another Keyblade War?
And while some may disagree with me on this one, I personally felt Aqua developed as a character in BBS rather well. Plus, due to the fact that she's responsible for the destruction that did eventually transpire, this sets Aqua up for even more character development in upcoming games.
That's why she's my favorite character; major role and massive character development potential. The boobs are just a wonderful plus.
Yet you didn't really know that until you played the game. That's what I meant. She was popular even before BBS came out because of her shallow appeal. The West has it ingrained in their minds that the only BEST female character ever is one that can fight, when the others are pretty much representing the normal, every day girl status that we all are in real life. We wouldn't be able to defend ourselves in that situation unless you were some high damn martial artist or something. Yet, those are the ones that get bashed and ignored to the more "ideal one" that we can't be.
As long as the character's good, makes sense within the story, and is riddled with good writing, I'll love them. That's why I love Naminé, who's the quintessential DID. Kairi has spunk, and while she's not my favorite, she's in neutral stand simply because she hasn't been developed. Not because she always gets kidnapped. There's nothing to hate, or like about her, she's just there. And Larxene, good Hell...that lovable bitch is self-explainable all on her own. She's practically the walking antithesis to every main KH heroine, including not looking like a Kairi reject.
Not always. It could just be piss-poor quality that results in a character getting bashed, regardless of whether or not they actually deserve it... *looks at Kairi and Xion*
I actually hate Larxene for being so bitchy. I normally don't mind that type of character, but she just pisses me off... xD
Namine is definitely the most developed female character in the series at this point, so she's right alongside Aqua for me.
All I really wanna know is why Aqua was ignored some of the best spells and attacks... I mean come on... Meteor, Quake, Faith (Holy), Tornado? I mean, wtf? I love her loads but they neglected giving her some powerful spells. :'(
This is what bothered me about Aqua. Terra has those powerful earth based moves to go along with his name, Ventus has those powerful wind moves to go along with his name. But what about Aqua? The only water move she has is that weak bubble shotlock that you start the game with.All I really wanna know is why Aqua was ignored some of the best spells and attacks... I mean come on...

Aqua should have unique water based spells like Waterga, tidal waves, and giant whirlpools. Spells similar to the Leviathan summon that's in many Final Fantasy games, that's the sort of stuff I want in her moveset. Hopefully BBSV2 remedies this and gives Aqua more water spells.
