The Four Elemental Lords

After drawing all those groups of heroes it's time for some bad guys, before moving on to the main villains of the various FF here is my favorite team of henchmen, the archdemons of FFIV,

The reason I'm so fond of these four shady individuals (in addition to their beautiful design and music theme) is probably their being typical shonen manga tropes, the villain's officers who are defeated in consequential order, but which still manage to be memorable and a challenge for the heroes.

P.S. (FFIV: The After Years Spoiler)
As much as I didn't like FFIV The After Years, I have to admit that the dialogue between Rubicante and Edge was really well written and got me excited.
