Not to mention that there's likely a large amount of people who flatout dislike her on account of Final Fantasy XIII being the most crap title they ever released (counting X-2, XII and XIV 1.0). I know i certainly dont want to see her hang around longer than she has to.

We're doing so well in a fresh 2.0, we dont need her tainting what we've build up here. It was a nice gimmick and a good piece of blatant promotion to get the interest in yet another sequel of XIII above 0, but enough is enough.
