I've mentioned a few times why I firmly believe Alphinaud is an excellent character... and once again, I'll reiterate that he actually got my respect back when both he and Aliasie helped us during the Coil story arc.

He has gone through his own trials and keeps evolving... even though he is Sensei Louisoix's grandson, he has repeatedly shown fortitude in securing his own achievements on his own rather than using the family name to just get by; and this is something I deeply admire because I can personally identify with that.

His mental perception, temperance and brilliance is exceptional... as I have said once before, he has a kind of Beautiful Mind when it comes to politics and it's great to see his progressive character development.

I honestly wish people would give him more credit.
