These three enemies are very know by "veterans" players like me, I'll say my favorite is the Tonberry, because for me its represent death itself, it's pretty strong, and if he infortunately reach you, then you "die" ,

"Its no cheating if you don't get caught"

my favorate was the malboro, on FF8 it was a nearly impossible oppenent, but when you finally beat him, you feel like a pro.

Owzer: P... please... Help that painting!!
"The painting!?"
Owzer: It's... There's a monster hiding in my prized painting of a goddess...
"A monster!?"
Owzer: Yes... And now it's nearly impossible to get it to show itself...
Relm: Ahhhhh!!

id also have to say the marlboro on 8 as it gives you alot of marlboro tentacles which are vbital and he is an extremly hard enemy

--------------------

Locke: Moogles...! Are you saying you want to help me?

I voted for Tonberry, just because I like how the character looks: a little green thing in a dirty robe carrying a lantern and hold a knife.

Of the enemies listed I have to give it to the tonberry. However, I really prefer the behemoths

Of those listed, I'd say Malboro for the challenge and the M-Tentacles (moreso on FFVIII), but my favorite monster of any FF is Iron Man/Giant. Those guys are cool!

Nothing spells coolness the way a cute little salamander-like cave-dwelling creature with a fish-like tail and a lantern in one hand does. Especially with the knife in the other hand.

Tonberries all the way! What else can personify death but still cute?

--------------------

What if he shot you first instead of your secretary?

I suppose I'd have to catch the bullet, wouldn't I

I like the Cactuars, yessir. I must have spent hours hunting these guys in FFVI. They're just neat looking and the first time I saw one in game I thought it was the wierdest thing I had seen yet. Tonberries are close but my sentimental fave is the Cactuar. I even have a Cactuar doll.

Cactaurs, lads of AP in some FF's, and i like that. hehe

i remember my first encounter with a cactuar was in 7, and it blew me away. i didn't get it, how he was so 2-D and twitchy

But i still love those Tonberries.

--------------------

The first duty in life is to assume a pose,
and the second duty is...well, no one's found out yet.

Hahaha no kidding Tonberries the little green guys with there knives. They're the best and in a close second I'd have to say Cactuar.

--------------------

- The problem isn't relgion, the problem is religious tolerance -

i picked because Cactuar u get alot of magic points in ff6

Ahhh I like them all if so I would vote for them all becuase whenever I read or hear one of those names I think Final Fantasy! Thats a hard poll decision I still want to vote for all of them. They all Kick It in their own cool way.

--------------------

Blah Blah Blah Blah! Newgrounds! ROCK!

Apparently I'm the only one who said Ahriman...

I always enjoyed how they had several types, such as the Fatal Eyes, which were very deadly and stopped my party more than one time. As for the Veterans (of VI), who can't love floating, one-eyed, bloodlusting Ahriman?

But Pugs/Tonberries are also high on the list.

--------------------

Could you repeat that?

Tonberries are the greatest, purely because anything that screams "DOINK" when it attacks you has to be awesome.

Cactuars, why?

Because it's the only "monster" in FFs taht I expressed myself with: «WTF??!?» because of their light speed movement. Especially for the arms going up and down instantly and being able to throw 1k needles in about 3 to 5 seconds...

--------------------

Sayonara

No Behemoth? Every veteran knows the behemoth...

But overall I'd say Tonberry up until 10. In 11 I hated his new look. To me they should be creepy and deadly, yet kinda' cute. 11's was just deformed and unloveble.

--------------------

The Arcana are the means by which ALL is revealed.

I like chocobos, although they're only heavily featured as enemies in a few games. Nothing gives me more satisfaction that killing a black chocobo before it can de-petrify one of its allies.

--------------------

It's gonna be a glorious day
I feel my luck can change

*MogMaster is bundling something up!




1000 needles for the win! Cactuars are just cool.

There's something oddly menacing about them there tonberries. Seriously, those little fish guys kind of creep me out! Maybe it's the blank stares in their eyes. Maybe it's the way they brandish those kitchen knives of theirs (reminiscent of "Psycho" or Micheal Meyers?) as they slowly and deliborately approach ye. It could also by the general ominous atmosphere of their usually haunts. Even their lanterns add a feeling of mystique. Ultimately, I'm guessing it's a combination of all the above. It also helps that they're always so goshdarned powerful .

As much as I love the awesome that is tonberries... I'm gonna say my fav is the Cactuar, for the same reason as Zodiac: it's just so incredibly random. It's a friggin' walking cactuar that somehow can move really really fast.

Ah blast, now I feel like a conformist but it is true, those Tonberries are awesome who else can still mess you up late game? don't answer that it was rhetorical, and 'Everybodies Grudge' was deadly if you'd been on killing sprees and what other creature walks up to you and smothly knifes you dead?

Tonberry=Death

--------------------

Everything teaches you something, not that is obvious though.

Tonberrys are so cute When you first fight them in your first FF you wonder why they are there Then you realize you can't kill them Then they reach you and you die!


When you do beat one though, you feel so strong especially if none of your people die

In FFA, They were too easy. Just kill them from afar. They did have the strongest attack in the game though.

--------------------

Dead Winter. A nice comic.

Sorry to everyone for not including Behemoth, I just forgot of him...ñ_ñ. Tonberrys are sure powerful, but in FFVII I used Deathforce spell, and Tonberry couldn't kill me...
In FFVIII, I don't know why, but Tonberry's Everyone grudge damages around 5500 to Squall, ...while to other character like Quistis its only around 1000 damage. Sure weird...

--------------------

"Its no cheating if you don't get caught"

Something about little monsters running around with knives and *STABBING* you.


So, yes, Tonberry all the way.

"Arthur Dent?"
"Yes."
"Arthur Philip Dent?"
"Yes."
"You're a total knee biter."

I love Cactuars in all shapes and forms. They're adorable and do raw damage, something I love to take advantage of.

Hey, put the cellphone down for a while
In the night there is something wild
Can you hear it breathing?
And hey, put the laptop down for a while
In the night there is something wild
I feel it, it's leaving me

malboros are definitely the oldest of those three.

i would have to say tonberry
those little pugs are freakishly powerful
