The funny thing is, Bartz/Gilgamesh is probably one of the only pairs where the antagonist is probably the stronger entrant.
Actually, Terra/Kefka might be another. Final Fantasy with the quality antagonists!
(I don't even want to say "villain" here, because SPOILERS Gilgamesh ends up being heroic in the end.
