I dunno, in KH1 he hit the right notes with me. Sure he was Vincenty, but he was also going out and getting shit done and talking back to Hades and at the end going "yeah, I fucked that one up" without, it seemed to me, so much dwelling as just having a mope before moving on. I mean, when Sora encourages him, he encourages back. And even jokes with him!

And, importantly, he felt like he fit with the KH universe. In KH2, he just feels awkwardly transplanted. That scene with Leon is fantastic (and still amuses me at how it was almost a 1:1 translation from Japanese, little to no modification necessary - testosterone is the same in all languages!), but the rest... bleah.

(Passing thought: KH1 Cloud never fought Sephiroth. At least not until Final Mix. That may be part of why I like him so much! He's not defined by the Sephiroth conflict like he is in EVERY OTHER APPEARANCE HE'S EVER HAD.)
