To me it often seems as people choose Sephiroth as the best villain because they think that he is cool, but honestly that doesn't make a character a very good villain

Sure the cool factor helps, but his backround and insainity won me over.  A villian need to be trying to achieve something so evil even the devil cringes, yet they themselves think thay are doing the right thing, just like Sephiroth!!!

He is no way as near as evil and twisted as a certain clown from FFVI. And since when did a hairstyle make a good villain?

I would never chose Sephiroth as my favourite Villian since i think Seifer is the best to be honest.

no way ultimecia was one of the best, she was going to destroy TIME, sephiroth only wanted to destroy the world and use it to travel to someplace or something another,

but sephiroth comes in a very close second

Kefka would be my favorite MAIN villain. I haven't played FFV yet, but i hear that Gilgamesh is a pretty entertaining adversary.

As a side note, Kefka would have to be much more insane than Sephiroth was.

Personally I don't see Kefka as Insane as he seems to have been like that his whole life and you need to go through a change to become insane.
In my opinion Kefka is only different ( very different ) which makes so that people see him as insane.

One thing that I like with Kefka is that unlike most of the other villains in the serie he is not doing ''evil'' acts because of hatred, destiny ( Sephiroth ), Revenge ( Ultimecia if the Ultimecia=Rinoa theory is true in a way which I think it maybe is ) or just a need to be bad ( X-Death ), He rather are doing what he thinks is fun.

It is like a child who have a whole nest of ants to play with ( at least in the way me and my brother used to do with the ants at home when we were younger )

Well, Kefka might look like a clown and gone made but seriously - he's not bad at all.
Sephie just doesn't go too evil, yes he might be evil, but think about some other villains - really, there are many games to choose from. Garland could even be evil, at the start he just stole the princess but he turned out to be.. Chaos.

erm... Sephiroth. I mean, c'mon. He's everywhere. Everybody knows his name. If you ask a non-FF player who sephiroth is, they could tell you. But if you ask them who Kefka or somebody like that is, will they know? Nope. Sephiroth is one of the most known video-game figures ever.

You are telling us that he is the most known villain in the serie but that doesn't make him the best :P

Kefka. No doubt. He's just so insane and fun. Either him or Kuja. Kuja is also a pretty good villain IMO. His goals are entirely unknown (you think he's Garland's puppet, but he goes and kills him)

I put it between Sephiroth and Kuja. Reasons: Sephiroth: He started out as a hero, he was who people tried to model themselves after. He was proud, cocky and he was the best. However he finds out he was created and suddenly the hero doesn't know what to do. But he wasn't just any hero, he was clouds hero, and cloud watched his idol fall apart in front of his very eyes. Cloud was the one who started the Rivalry, for all i care before Cloud made chase Sephiroth barely acknowledged him. Simply put, Sephiroth is the fallen hero. Kuja: He's very underrated, he was bad all the way up to the end, and for selfish reasons; But he was vulnerable, he wasn't sadistic, he wasn't angry, he was just sad. He is much like many people today. If they don't know what to do with themselves they give up hope, the only difference was he took it to an entirely different level. He however did manage to set aside his personal grudge once he realized his wrong to save Zidane. People ask for reasons all the time, those are mine.

I would give my vote to Kuja:

I like Wiryu's point: he's very underrated. He also had the knack to manipulate people to the fullest, which in my opinion, is the first key to "villian success". And again agreeing with Wiryu, he wasn't hell-bent on destroying everything down to the subatomic particle level because he wanted revenge or was angry at everything; he was (more-or-less) just a normal person (with summoning powers).

Even though he may have an odd style of clothing, his hair is definitley a plus factor, and (I believe) he is the only FF villain to ever ride a mount. ( <- Which all of this has nothing to do with his villain rank, anyways. XP )

I don't like him because he's cool. I like him because he scares the crap out of me.

I would have to agree with all the others that say Kefka. Seph is cool, and a bad a$$ but Kefka was sadistic.

Seifer is my favourite villian because of his bad ass attitude.He has the psychological advantage over people like Zell and Squall because of the way he acts around them. Hes annoying,a brat and although he was an easy adversary, i did enjoy the fights against him.

I'd have to say Kefka. Not only is his character very well developed, he does acts that (as opposed to Sephiroth) are despicable and enraging, as well as evil and horrifying.

While Sephiroth is already strong, Kefka started as a mere soldier and became what he is thanks to backstabbing and mass murder.

SPOILERS!!!

I mean, it's not every FF villain that someone poisons an entire river just to win a battle. Or continually kills NPCs you have become attached to. (Yes, the death of Aerith made me extremely sad... but you got a lot more deaths in FF6, so I personally think it was a LOT worse) Or destroys entire villages just because he can. Or murders espers right in front of your eyes for their powers. (and keeps them in a lab for what, 20 years?)

And what I personally like about Kefka is, like Sephiroth you know he's the big baddie right off the bat. I hated the villains where they kept shifting between the controller and the controlled and then you just get an explanation of why the final boss is so evil. Seeing their evil acts firsthand made the final battle A LOT more fun. >:)

I would say Kefka too.  I think that the infusion of Magicite into Kefka finally drove him over the edge.  He liked doing crazy evil things before; this just gave him a better means of doing those things.  At first he wants to rule the world, but comes to a realization that he wants to destroy it instead, you know life is pointless blah, blah, blah (cliché but it works well in this case).  On the other hand, people could feel at least a little sympathy for Sephiroth; Hojo is really to blame for most of what happens towards the end of VII anyhow.  It think he might have intended for Sephiroth to get into that library and go after Jenova.  Anyway, my opinion.  Sephiroth is pretty good though.

for me it has to jecht. he has the worst dilemma. he makes a good final boss because tidus didnt like him as a father and he hated him,but when he saw jecht he didnt want ot fight him. jecht is good and caring but he had to do bad because of the condition he was in.

I can't see why every one thinks so but he doesn't.
If he would be standing next to a clown there would be very noticeable difference

He didn't look too much like a clown in the game (save a few battles, like the one where you have to protect Tritoch). He looks a lot like a clown in the FMVs though. Probably because they used the original drawings by  Y. Amano as basis for what the characters look like. (I'm assuming this is also why Terra is blonde instead of green-haired :P)

Sephiroth is the coolest by far.  He's got that twisted past that takes you the entire game to figure out, he manipulates countless people in order to get to the northern crater and get the black materia, and still finds time to torment Cloud's mind.  Not to mention releasing those WEAPONs.  Then there was that whole thing where there was accually 2 different Sephiroths in the crater.  He was confusing, manipulative, and awesome.

However, even though she doesn't have a big role, I thought Jenova was pretty wicked.  Appearing from space and wiping out a civilization of ancients or turning them into monsters, then lying dorment for thousands of years, having her power used to twist members of SOLDIER into monsters, and finally convincing Sephiroth into destroying the world.  And even then, she JUST DOESN'T STAY DEAD AFTER YOU KILL HER!

Seifer-He was the coolest FF series villain because of his wicked attitude plus he had the best weapon, a double edged gunblade!! Now I know Sephiroth had a big sword but that surely is way cooler! Plus Seifer had a scar- ALL cool villains should have a scar, it's like a law! In conclusion I think you'll find that Seifer rules!!

Seifer wasnt really a proper villian.. and there is no way that he was cooler than Sephiroth and FFVII is better than FFVIII :P

Sephiroth was a proper villian.. he was PURE EVIL and wanted destroy everyone for his own selfish benefits..
also he is the LAST boss that you have to kill while Seifer isnt and he re-joins Squall and them in Balamb Garden..

dont get me wrong FFVIII was my 2nd fav FF game but it WAS NOT better than FFVII!!!!
