The job system in Final Fantasy V is truly the magic. It's natural to use hard-hitting warrior classes and the power of the black mage, just to knock every enemy out of the water, but it's the silly jobs like dancer can make the game fun during replays. All the various jobs you get from the crystals that you receive through the course of the game, give the game tremendous replay value. Every try beating Exdeath with a party of bards? Blue magic is a lot of fun in this game also. The ability to collect the spells and special attacks from enemies is intriguing and a lot of fun during replays.
Both blue magic and the thief job's "capture" command were refined into certain characters in Final Fantasy VI. Although the story in FFV isn't as strong as in FFVI, FFV stands up as a more classic console RPG with a lot of fun elements in the gameplay.
Also, FFV's final party is 75% female, which I think is probably a record for the time it was released.
