Couldn't help adding Halicarnassus. Everything about her screams that she belongs in FFVIII. What do you think?

Some people have the theory that Halicarnassus is Ultamecia...but I'd rather her be Rinoa over Halicarnassus though honestly.

@@Ranixo286 I have never heard of the Halicarnassus = Ultimecia theory. Huh.... I guest they both rule over a floating castle outside of time and space and have big pointy headwear. LOL! But yeah, I agree. In my head canon, Rinoa is Ultimecia. It just gives the story so much more weight in meaning in my opinion.

While Xerxes was overseeing the battle from his throne, which was at the foot of Mount Aigaleo, he observed the incident and he and the others who were present thought that Artemisia had attacked and sunk a Greek ship. One of the men who was next to Xerxes said to him: "Master, see Artemisia, how well she is fighting, and how she sank even now a ship of the enemy" and Xerxes then responded: "My men have become women; and my women, men." None of the crew of the Calyndian ship survived to be able to accuse her otherwise.[38] According to Polyaenus, when Xerxes saw her sink the ship, he said: "O Zeus, surely you have formed women out of man's materials, and men out of woman's.

Haven't gotten into final fantasy yet, but I watched this whole video and wasn't bored. I figured that's a great analytical data point for you :) Thanks a whole bunch for sharing. I like deep dives into character lore possibilities. This was a good video, and you covered a lot of ground in ten minutes!

Thanks for sharing. That is a good data point. Glad I could make it a little interesting! If you every play I Final Fantasy game, I recommend the older ones with the turn based gameplay. Final Fantasy X is a great entry point and the last of the turn based games. I really liked eight (obviously) and everyone likes seven. But six is my absolute favorite in the series.

I thought rinoa became a sorceress first after the 2nd battle with Edea?.. then had Adel power after that battle which led her the only active sorceress of that time.

@KumaPlays

Жыл бұрын

You are totally correct. Rinoa unknowingly gets powers from Edea, but neither of them were aware of that happening. However, that is what allowed Ultimecia to possess Rinoa, so it is relevant to the story. I was trying to keep the video from getting too long. So since she wasn't really aware of receiving Edea's power, I chose to say that her true powers were awakened after the fight with Adel. Great catch!

@@KumaPlays you know I never understood that part of the story with edea not knowing she had passed her powers to rinoa. If I remember right they said she did so because she thought she was going to die... so did she just not know because she was using Para magic due to having the party gf? But that still won't explain her access to her limit break. I wish they would explain that better lol

What about the sorceress in Centra Ruins. There's a statue of Odin holding her dying in his arms. Either that's a different knight/sorceress pair, or maybe Odin was zephyr?

Sorry my question, but after Edea is defetead didnt she pass her powers to Rinoa? Esthar tried the lockdown Rinoa just like they made with Adel (to stop the infinite circle of sorceress passing they powers to others). Them Adel drain Rinoa's power to fight (under Ultimecia's control i guess) and when she is defetead Ellone send Ultimecia's mind to her future.

I thought Ultimecia used magic to send her consciousness back in time. What technology are you referring to?

@KumaPlays

Жыл бұрын

It is easy to miss this in the story. Dr. Odine created a piece of tech called Junction Machine Ellone. It was based on Ellone's ability to send a person's consciousness back in time. It had been perfected by the distant future era of Ultimecia.

Ultimacia is smoking hot

Are you trying to suggest the Hein from FF3 is the same as the one from FF8? These games reuse names all the time without it being the same character. Just look at Cid.

@KumaPlays

Жыл бұрын

Valid point. And it is totally possible that FFIII's Hein had to do the same skin trick that FFVIII's Hyne pulled. they could be different characters. But I like to think that since Hyne goes missing after ditching his skin in FFVIII, that his skeletal body fled to the world of FFIII. It's my head canon at least.
