Katt and Nina were both supercute. This game had early waifu appeal, morseo than most JRPGs up to that point that got a western release. We take it for granted now, arguing about who is bestgirl nonstop, but this was a new concept back then.

Unlike FF character art you actually knew what these BoF girls looked like. Detailed in-game art and the manual had full color pinups of them. Due to Yoshitaka Amano's abstract art being hard to fap to and super deformed heavily pixelated character sprites found in final fantasy games a lot of people didn't have a clear idea why Rydia and Celes actually looked like. DQ girls were even less defined. A lot of the official art from japanese games was replaced with crude western art (including BOF cover art) so for years many early JPRG waifus went mostly unrecognized.

Lunar games and Chrono trigger from around that era also had well defined waifu candidates that have stood the test of time.
