Oh god, I am so glad that I'm not the only one who feels that way.

I'm going to check back on the comments in a few days and see if I'm not alone. Or if the fanbrats start wanking, that would be entertaining too. Hating on Saint Fay?! How dare they!!

I can't be the only person who progressed from eye-rolling to outright laughter while reading the Celes arc. I can't be.

Or just a milder form of tragic, like getting dumped by his secret crush in junior high. CAN HE EVER LOVE AGAIN?

I only read through Celes once, and the whole time I was thinking about how Fai should have turned into a complete sociopath because of his childhood. Manga characters have done it for less. Toss in FWR's deux-ex-machina appearance for added trauma. After all that, Ashura's whole killing people for obscure reasons was simply unnecessary. I don't remember why he did it, but there are nicer ways to betray a broken soul. I adore Fai for using smiles to cover the sad, but I don't pay much mind to the reasons for his woe.

I agree, for all accounts and purposes, Fai should have completely lost his sanity back then... Perhaps changing his name and hiding behind a smile were his way of coping.

Though it seemed rather negated when he succumbed to all those suicidal "don't deserve to live" tendencies in the infinity arc... Good thing he had Kurogane to knock some sense back into him. ;o)

Well, that and the borderline obsessive need to protect Sakura that all Tsubasa characters seem to acquire. XD
