Everyone's battle-opening lines
Don't ask me why I'm wasting my time doing this. My reasoning is to put everyone's battle-opening lines into one place, but what for is a mystery even to me. I can't think of any use for it, unless I want to edit it into the characters' pages on the Final Fantasy wiki. Although, I haven't looked, but I'm willing to bet these lists are already up there. I mean, they have lists of battle-dialogue for the FFX characters, so why not battle-dialogue for Dissidia?
I originally backdated this entry so it didn't clutter up f-lists, but I changed my mind. People can just skip over it if they don't want to read it. :P
