DRAMA:
Protagonist checks out (Persona 3) vs. Flint gets bad news about Hanawa (Mother 3): Abstain.
Lenneth's breakdown in A Ending (Valkyrie Profile) vs. Alys' death scene (Phantasy Star 4): Alys' death scene is pretty good for one such, notably because the game gives you such a ray of hope before it. But I'm more generally impressed with Lenneth's breakdown. Good fight though.

STYLE:
Amon vs. Rasputin (Shadow Hearts Covenant) vs. Hippopressor (Mega Man X Command Mission): It's Hippopressor.
Clive verbally owns Melody (Wild ARMS 3) vs. Intro (Shadow Hearts): The bad VA and animations still ruin the latter to me. Clive owning Melody does feel a little forced, but goodness did those things need to be said.

HUMOR:
Flay Character Quest 5 (Mana Khemia) vs. Silmeria and Alicia talk about an Escort (VP2): Succeeds more at being humourous.
SUPER TAUNT (Street Fighter 4) vs. Guy's Super Move (Naruto: Clash of the Ninja series): Comes out of fucking nowhere and is awesome.

MEGA MAN X4 VOICE ACTING:
"THIS ISN'T ABOUT LOGIC!" (Tales of the Abyss)vs. XORN! (Grandia III): I've had plenty of fun at the TotA scene's expense, but Xorn is Xorn, he is one of the top DL memes for a reason.

DRAMA:
Protagonist checks out (Persona 3) vs. Flint gets bad news about Hanawa (Mother 3) - Splat.
Lenneth's breakdown in A Ending (Valkyrie Profile) vs. Alys' death scene (Phantasy Star 4) - not super impressed with how VP1 A route was handled, for all that this is a better match than the one above.

STYLE:
Amon vs. Rasputin (Shadow Hearts Covenant) vs. Hippopressor (Mega Man X Command Mission)
Clive verbally owns Melody (Wild ARMS 3) vs. Intro (Shadow Hearts)

HUMOR:
Flay Character Quest 5 (Mana Khemia) vs. Silmeria and Alicia talk about an Escort (VP2) - Is actually amusing.
SUPER TAUNT (Street Fighter 4) vs. Guy's Super Move (Naruto: Clash of the Ninja series) - MANLY HUG

"ITS JUST A WRONG DIVISION, DON'T MAKE ME VOTE!":
"THIS ISN'T ABOUT LOGIC!" (Tales of the Abyss)vs. XORN! (Grandia III) - Xorn is hilarity.  TotA is boring generic anime rivalry #3821 way to be original tales

DRAMA:
Protagonist checks out (Persona 3) vs. Flint gets bad news about Hanawa (Mother 3)- I don't like the P3 much, but still can't believe the Mother 3 scene got past the awesome, tense, well VAed, plot relevant (...etc) XS 2 scene.
Lenneth's breakdown in A Ending (Valkyrie Profile) vs. Alys' death scene (Phantasy Star 4)

STYLE:
Amon vs. Rasputin (Shadow Hearts Covenant) vs. Hippopressor (Mega Man X Command Mission)- Yeah, SH 2 scene wins on style, so much more to me than here is a random boss!
Clive verbally owns Melody (Wild ARMS 3) vs. Intro (Shadow Hearts)

HUMOR:
Flay Character Quest 5 (Mana Khemia) vs. Silmeria and Alicia talk about an Escort (VP2)

DRAMA:
Protagonist checks out (Persona 3) vs. Flint gets bad news about Hanawa (Mother 3) - While I have a generally high opinion of P3's ending, that particular scene I don't like as much, and the M3 scene is very strong.
Lenneth's breakdown in A Ending (Valkyrie Profile) vs. Alys' death scene (Phantasy Star 4) - Oddly enough, Lenneth's breakdown just doesn't work for me.  I find it more cringe inducing than dramatic, whereas Alys' death is superbly done.  It stands tall against modern stuff, let alone against its contemporaries.

STYLE:
Amon vs. Rasputin (Shadow Hearts Covenant) vs. Hippopressor (Mega Man X Command Mission) - I can get behind Hippopressor hype.
Clive verbally owns Melody (Wild ARMS 3) vs. Intro (Shadow Hearts) - I really like this scene, dunno why.

HUMOR:
Flay Character Quest 5 (Mana Khemia) vs. Silmeria and Alicia talk about an Escort (VP2) - VP2 did not want to go against Flay in humour.
SUPER TAUNT (Street Fighter 4) vs. Guy's Super Move (Naruto: Clash of the Ninja series) - MANLY HUG OF DEATH!

"ITS JUST A WRONG DIVISION, DON'T MAKE ME VOTE!":
"THIS ISN'T ABOUT LOGIC!" (Tales of the Abyss)vs. XORN! (Grandia III) - I will stand by Xorn as being the embodiement of this category.
