Jecht
Name: Jecht
Japanese name: ジェクト (Jekuto)
Also known as: THAT BASTARD

Story
Despite his position as a villain, what Jecht really wants is to escape the battle and for him and his son, Tidus, to return home. To that end, he clashes with the Emperor, who sees him as a danger to his plans, and is wounded. Tidus heals him before their battle so they can both fight at full strength, and Jecht loses to his son.
Thoughts
I am very, very bitter about Jecht. Why, you ask? Well, it all has to do with my first encounter with a boss piece. It was in my first run-through of any story mode (Cloud's), and I didn't realize that one can and should skip boss pieces. So I spent a dozen tries beating Jecht, who kept beating the crap out of me in about two seconds flat. In the seventy-plus hours I've spent playing Dissidia, he has never done anything but beat the crap out of me. The result of most of these battles is me screaming something to the effect of "OMG JECHT YOU BASTARD STOP KICKING MY ASS." (He never listens.)
Of course, for pure irony, I'm pretty sure from what I know of him that once I play FFX I'm going to like him. Dammit.
I would also like to report that upon getting and playing the English version, I kicked Jecht's ass in one try when I encounted him in Cloud's story mode. TAKE THAT, YOU BASTARD! >D
Gameplay
True to his fighting concept, Jecht will quickly and decisively kick your ass. His attacks are strong and fast, and you have to pay attention to even hope of winning. Hopefully you'll be better at it than I am.
