I loved Kefka... he is like the Joker of new Batman, an chaos agent.

No, I hate FFXII and I midly dislike FFVII and FFX so most people take that as hating Final Fantasy.

At least FFVI is #1 
twestern gave great examples of emotive moments in FFVI. I would add the side story of Gau, it's horribly sad.
I believe that Seraphic fails to see the greatness of the characters and art of FFVI basically for not being in context (well, that and he clearly is missing some basic art appraise, I think). FFVI's graphics, art, music, themes... everything was the among the best in its time. He might not see it, but the sprites, togheter with the music, conveyed so much emotion, and very explicitly, you could see exactly wath the character was feeling, and it's amazing the achievement of this in so little graphical space.
I haven't played it again in about 3 years, but if I'm not wrong for almost ten years I played this game once a year. And the OST has been in my Ipod for years, and played frecuently. Easily, EASILY, the best soundtrack in a videogame. Dancing Mad, all the Opera songs, the Forest song, the Ghost Train song, I could go on and on...absolutely fantastic and timeless.
Oh, and OT, Kefka of course.
And unlike other people, I think FFVII is fantastic (but nowhere near FFVI).
I also thought FFVII was pretty great. FFVI was just better.
You can take Sephiroth vs. Kefka as being equivalent, only to a much bigger degree.

Honestly i always saw FF7 and FF8 as steps backwords because of it.
The sprites were so crisp and defined compaired to the lego look.
FF7 concinced me everyone went 3D a bit early.

Yeah, 3D worlds like that were a neat gimmick and those first steps had to be taken to get where we are today, but they don't hold a candle the incredibly emotive sprites and painted backgrounds on the SNES and other 2D PS RGP's.
Now that I think about it, my top 3 games use sprites: FFVI, Super Metroid and FFT
