Not really. It's been a year since my last playthrough but they killed me maybe once or twice a piece. Spectral Keeper was the one who killed me maybe five or six times.
Apart from her annoying status effects and the Mega-Death, Yunalesca wasn't very challenging at all.
Seymour Flux.... A lot of his fight is luck, to be honest. I saw a guy who fought Flux and got Cross Cleave which wiped out all his party except one but then Seymour did his Zombie/Auto-Life combo immediately after on his one surviving character.
That never happened to me.
Yunalesca was hard the first time because I was unprepared for Mega Death. :(
Seymour Flux is the hardest boss in the game.
I would not say that. [SIN] Spawn Ekyu - the one which is pushed back by Seymour with nothing but power - is strong as well. The part before you fight it with Yuna, Auron and Seymour.
Also I love this battle with Seymour's battle theme and his Overdrive "Requiem". He is not my favourite Final Fantasy X character without reason.
Seymour Omnis was the coolest form of Seymour. His design, music, battle quotes...all awesome.

Perhaps not the hardest...but if you hadn't spent ages doing sidequests and crap, I think he can still be somewhat challenging.
Seymour Ominis was the easiest of all his forms to fight. :p
Seymour Omnis or "Seymor Ultima" how he is called in the german version is the most boring Seymour battle in my opinion. He doesn't have his normal Seymour music which is played during the Yunalesca battle as well and his form is...not even a form. Just a ghost with wings which are his hair like the haircut is mutated in the other forms. The only cool things in this battle are lines like his when you summon Anima and he says disappointed to his mother "So now you are against me as well...".
My favourite of his mutation forms would be Seymour Flux/Seymor Obscura.
The song that plays during Flux and Yunalesca is known as Challenge.
And I think Seymour Battle, the one that plays during the Omnis fight, is a much better track.
And yeah, it is the most basic transformation but that's why it's the best. It still looks like Seymour in there, just a lot bigger and white. It's way cooler to see him wave his arm to cast a spell as opposed to waving a flipper or whatever the heck that thing was in his Flux form.
Also the exclusion of the Mortibody, the little thing that takes his health in his Natus and Flux forms, was a good thing.
And yes, the exchange with Anima was good but he also had other great lines in the Omnis fight.
Before casting Dispel:
But there is no salvation for the demaned! Rest in peace in eternal darkness.
Before casting Ultima:
Let darkness take you!
All delivered while you also hear one of the best pieces of music in FF history.
I know the music. You don't have to tell me how it is called.
And I do not know why you are replying to me because it is my opinion and you have to accept it like I have to accept yours. I'd rather see Seymour wielding a giant spear and two death blades while battling him on a mountain than fighting him while he looks like a boring looking ghost. Also I love the lines "Pitiful mortal...your hope ends here. End your meaningless existence with it!" before the Seymor Obscura battle and his "Death awaits you!" so he doesn't only have good lines during the final battle against him. His lines while casting Dispel and Ultima are typical villain lines. Like "Death awaits you!" of course.
Anyway it's sad in my opinion how it ends with him. Not only how he finally send to the farplane. They could have made him the true main villain with just letting him appear after you beat Braska's final aeon and sent him. Just let him fuse with Yu Yevon, let him somehow control Yu Yevon and then finally destroy him together with Yu Yevon.
Indeed. We're having a discussion.
I like it too. But it's more pre-match dialogue than battle quotes. And he has an even better one for the Omnis fight.Quote:

Seymour: You should thank me. Your death means your father's life!
I don't think Yu Yevon can possess people, just aeosn.Quote:

And really, Seymour is more of the main antagonist than Jecht or Sin or Yu Yevon. But FFX doesn't have a Big Bad like most of the other Final Fantasy's anyway.
Also I guess I just don't thinK Seymour looks right with giant swords and spears. He's a mage first and foremost. Omnis is a true evolution of his original form. His original form could cast two level 2 spells and his Omnis form can cast 4 level 3 spells.
But like you said, to each their own.
This is one of the lines I have meant. But I do not like it that much. Seymour has by far better lines than this one.
I have not said it should have possessed Seymour. I have said it should have fused with Seymour and Seymour should have control of the new power. Like (SPOILER)Xehanort when he has fused with Terra's body and the darkness of his heart.
You think he doesn't look right with a spear and swords? He is an unsent. He can transform into a monster form because of it. Like unsent people become monsters. Monsters do not have to look like their original form.
Fighting my real life boss for the week off after the game was released.
Compared to that, the game was simple. :p
P.S. I want my week back!
Indeed. My personal favorite line being:
Ah yes, protect the summoner even at the cost of one's life, the code of the Guardian. How admirable. Well, if you are offering your lives I shall have to take them.
It's the way he delivers the line. His tone sags under the weight of his sarcasm. Their noble actions are of absolutely no interest to him and killing them is less significant than stepping on ants.
Though overall, if I ranked all the evil scenes with him from favorite to least favorite...
1. Macalania Temple confrontation
2. Revealing his plan to the party in Bevelle.
3. Before the Omnis fight
4. Before the Flux fight
5. Discussion with Mika and Kinoc
I suppose that could have worked.Quote:

Yes an Unsent could look like whatever they wanted to. But whatever. You like his Flux design, i like his Omnis design. It's a very subjective and superficial argument so you can't really get anywhere.Quote:

That's why it's sad in my opinion they haven't done something like this.
By the way, Fayth are unsent as well - not the normal kind of unsent because they have sacrificed themselves but they are unsent. And an unsent being can possess humans. Shuyin had control over Nooj once they released his pyreflies by opening the sealed gate and in the farplane he had control over Baralai. Also with Yu Yevon possessing unsents - the final aeon - he could possess Seymour who is unsent as well even if it would not be possible to possess him while he is alive. But normally unsent should be able to control both living and dead creatures so Seymour's whole "Lady Yuna, let me be your husband so I will become [Sin] by sacrificing myself." is nothing but a story filler. There would be more ways to gain Yu Yevon's power/the power of [Sin].
FFX-2 Ultimania states Shuyin isn't a regular Unsent. He's simply all Shuyin's feelings imprinted upon his death onto pyreflies. The Shuyin in the game is not his unsent spirit.
