Final Fantasy XIII can go die in a fire, but then it would probably wax poetic about how the fire is somehow a metaphor for standing on your own two feet. Without a sense of self-awareness or irony. For 50 hours.

Because the main character's parents died (how?) she took on the nickname "Lightning" to be stronger. Where. Is. The. Logic. A nickname? She wasn't exactly becoming a masked hero (which would have been truly novel if their parents' parents death were at the hands of some Batman-esque catalyst), but essentially a fluorescent-lit police officer. With gravity-manipulating fingersnaps full of sass, which is apparently standard equipment in this technicolor headache of a game world.

What person would adopt an alias if they were not only not on the run to begin with, but also keeping established contract with family and work as well? I don't go to work and hear that Howard from Sales is now to be called "Stone" because his cat went missing.
