I didn't see any recent thread for this topic, so I decided to make a new one. Limit Breaks/Overdrives/Quickenings/ATB moves/etc. They all look cool and really stylized. Which animation is your guys' favorite?

Mine would have to be Tifa's Meteodrive. She just picks up her opponent, regardless how massive they are, and slams them head first into the ground! It cracks me up every time lol.
 
Now we're talking about "huge" and "power". Have you ever seen a suplex? Sabin does it as a Blitz in Final Fantasy VI. It can even lift a freakin' TRAIN!
Back on topic. I do not really have a favorite. I have not played FFVII alot, and the Overdrives of Final Fantasy X doesn't look that impressive. So i'm going for Aurons Tornado.
 
With only 3 games to really choose from in this thread FFVII FFVIII & FFX that have spectacular limit and overdrive animations:

FFVII omnislash,catastrophe,metoerain,finishing touch,tifas combo

FFVIII Lionheart,WishingStar(?)

FFX SpiralCut,Attack Reels,energy rain, Slice&dice, Auroch reels,
 
Barrets Catastrophe.

He launches himself with his cannon arm before unleashing an avalanche of abuse on the enemy. FFVII limits are my favourites. I love it when it zooms to the character and the waaaaaa sound effect comes in :x3:
 
If AC can count, I love the way Omnislash Ver.6 looks. The way Cloud darts through his foe, cutting them while he assembles the First Tsurugi in the air looks epic. Then at the end when he falls and lets all the pieces fall by themselves looks cool :x3:
 
^ Yeah that'd definitely rank pretty close to #1 on my list. It's just that I used Meteodrive against Ultimate WEAPON recently and could not stop laughing so I picked that instead lol.
 
im gonna have to go with Omnislash...the first time i saw it was in the Sephiroth battle cause i didnt really bother with it the first time through the game. Although Omnislash from Dissdia looks alot better with the upgraded graphics and stuff. Next to Omnislash, i would have to go with Vincents final limit break..and his third one (the one with the Hockey mask). I thought it was pretty awesome that he use to turn into different monsters..
 
I (shamefully) can't remember what a lot of them look like, but I've always admired Zidane's Solution 9 :D It's not as powerful as Grand Lethal but it looks really cool. And Barret's Catastrophe--the way he just jumps up and blasts the crap out of the enemy from above is completely badass :8F:

I also really liked Sabin's blitzes from VI, and Shadow's "Takedown"--seeing Interceptor bark and run straight through the enemy cracks me up every time :D I'm not sure if that particular one counts as a limit but I still like it.
 
I loved Barret's Castrophe. I always use him for the final Sephiroth battle just for that.

And Cid's Highwind. I think it's awesome that he calls down his air ship to attack an enemy XD.
 
My Final Heaven

I love the name and I love Zell. It was a very appropiate limit break for him, haha. I also liked Irvines, being the Irvine fangirl I am! 8D
 
I really liked the long limits. Like Omnislash, Lionheart, Wishing star, Tifa's and one from Yuffie which name I forgot. I just think it's badass how many times they beat up their opponent.
 
mine has to be Tidus' Blitz ace overdrive,

i love how he starts off in slow motion charging at the enemies, then he unleashes a hellish combo that involves a backflip and a kinda braver like slash afterwards, closely followed by him stabbing his sword (normally Caladbolg when i watch it as that is what i equip him with by the time i get blitz ace) and using it as a kicker so he can then proceed to have a Randomly aquired Blitzball (that i think Wakka should throw as he has one to hand always) thrown to him so he can preform what seems like the Sphere shot into an enemy.

its just awesum
 
Habe l been here before?

Anyway l like the LionHeart animation its rare on FFVIII to get, well not rare but its harder yo get based on lower ammounts of Hp. Its about 14 hits of max damgae against most enemies anihilating all but the most stubborn enemies with ease.
 
Forget all of this Omnislash, Catastrophe, Final Heaven junk.

It's all about Aeris' Healing Wind. xD

Just kidding... I'd have to say Lionheart was up there for sure. If you wanna call XIII moves limit breaks, Army of One is also pretty cool. And Vincent's Chaos. He looks so badass after morphing.
 
Ambios you so crazy!

I like most of the moves Tidus has in his Swordaplay overdrive
SpiralCut Atk x3
Slice'n'Dice Atk 1/2 x6 hits
Energy Rain Atk X1.5 all enemies
Blitz Ace Atk x4 8 hits @1/4 + 1 hitx2 Atk

Its kind of screwy because SpiralCut has the same amount of damage potential as Slice'n'Dice but S'n'd has 6 hits, aqainst a single enemy this damage is just as effective as SpiralCut.

There all great sword moves based on Speed and Dexterity vs brute strength.
 
Gotta love Cloud's Omnislash attack, looked super cool, and looked even better on Advent Children, but that's not really a FF game, so I guess it doesn't count, but it's still worth a mention.
 
My favourite one would have to be either Cloud's Omnislash Level 4 Limit Break, or Squall's Lionheart Limit Break, I just love those merciless displays of insane sword skill. ^.^

I am torn between those two, still not sure. :hmmm: Oh, and Nanaki's Level 4 Limit Break Cosmo Memory gets an honourable mention, love the effects, and of course the howl. :nanaki:

If I had to choose, I guess I'd say Omnislash, that is the ultimate of ultimates for characters 'breaking limits'. :ryan:
 
I cant recall all of them either. Id say my fav would probably be Squalls limit break, ulimate style rofl XD Renzokuken and Lionheart <3 The noise is awesome also.
