I can't say. I really can't.
I mean, Althena has this sort of transcendent beauty, a radiance that needs no adornment, no accompaniment... it just is.
On the other hand, Luna is quite nice looking as well. Maybe modest by modern standards with the scarf and all, but by mine, she fits.
And Dark Althena ... except when she's singing, she actually has a very naive look about her. That could be considered pretty. Of course, then there's the state of dress, but...
As for the prettiest... Luna. But I think pretty is too superficial a term for all of them.

I definitely prefer the one in my avatar, which of course is directly related to why that's my avatar. It's a bit different from her design in the later games, and of course she looks self-assured there instead of lost.
The Dark Althena costume looks way too uncomfortable, and while it's undoubtedly a plus to have a bit more power over the males who can be led by their gonads, I don't know that the comfort tradeoff would be worth it. Though I always like capes and long gloves.
Luna's pretty enough, but she's a teenager. I probably like her best in her EBC bromide, where she appears to be a bit older.

Bah, Luna being older is just sadder for me. Sure she looks pretty, but, you know, having played Luna, you know Luna, and you find yourself way more comfortable with that look than in one with a bromide.
Oh, and if anyone says that Old Luna from EBC is prettier, I have a few thousand Friendship rings for ya.

I have to go with the true Althena as well. Let's face it, the only thing the Dark Goddess has going for her is the clothing, and while Luna is pretty, she doesn't look quite as mature as the real goddess (unless we're talking about that bromide again).

I'd rank the choices as follows: Althena, Luna, and then Dark Althena.
I don't like the look of Althena as she appeared in the SSSC and prefered her look in EBC. She looked too young, I think. Luna ranks higher than Dark Althena only because the Dark Goddess costume was rather ridicious. No self-respecting goddess would wear such clothing. But I prefer women with long flowing hair, and if it was based on that factor alone, Luna would come in dead last.

Heaven does not speak. It simply showed its will by his personal conduct and his conduct of affairs.
