Princess Elise the Third

Princess Elise the Third (Princess Elise or Elise) is a major character in the game Sonic ‘06. She is Sonic’s love interest and suffered from her father being killed when she was young.

Why She Sucks

 * 1) Her biggest flaw is the fact she is excruciatingly bland. She is so one-dimensional and forgettable, she was never seen again in a Sonic game.
 * 2) She is so much of a damsel in distress, she outclasses Princess Peach. You know, the queen of video game damsels?
 * 3) She lacks in character and personality.
 * 4) She serves little purpose to be a character in the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise. She was meant to be Sonic’s love interest, which is incredibly unfitting since she is a human character and barely has anything in common with him.
 * 5) She became universally hated by fans in the scene where she kisses Sonic in the lips when he was dead!
 * 6) Her design makes her look like a creepy and lifeless mannequin.
 * 7) Elise can’t defend herself. Even though she has powers, she can’t protect herself from being kidnapped, which happens five times! Instead, she decides to let Sonic save her. She is like Princess Peach, but bland and forgettable.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) Her backstory is extremely touching.
 * 2) She has some development.
 * 3) Despite being bland, she has a caring and protective demeanor.
 * 4) Her theme song is pretty good.
