Thread: Good angel?

  1. #1

    Default Good angel?

    First time we see our characters being absorbed into time in Ultiīs time we think"This little angel is evil and is collaborating with Ulti"
    But then we realize that itīs wings are white.
    Is the angel helping our characters?
    Note that a Game Over cannot be achieved with the angel.
    I wonder.
    Flo:Honey,the clock is late.Go out fix it.
    Mayor Dobe:What hours is it?
    Flo: 15:30
    Mayor Dobe:Hey do you wanna to send the Estharians to Centra or what?
    Flo:Ok,let it be on 3:45

    I don't think the angel's helping the good guys. Angel's are often portrayed as "tools of evil" in FF games; In FFVII, Sephiroth uses the "Heartless Angel" which seriously injures your team, for example.

    As I've stated this in my other thread.

    Storywise, the white angel was part of Ulti's plan. Ulti doesn't want Squall/his party to die. If they died, then there's no way for Ulti to die because she's so desperate to give up her powers. That's why the angel is there.

    The whole plan was for Ulti to die so she can give up powers. She included Squall and his party in the plan. She lurked them into seeing her at the end, because she knew that they can kill her, pretty cool, eh?

    Most of the 'good angel' motif applies to Rinoa. The wings on the back of her outfit, the Angel Wing limit break. Heck, even her dog is named Angelo.

    As for the final battle, I've lost characters into time, but I don't recall angels. Do you have a screenshot?

    the angels are shown if a character dies and isnt revived.. happened the first time i played it.

    Raebus you have to agree with me.. it just sounds as stupid as possible. there is no evidence for it at all

    Anyway, nobody wants to last forever, including her. She has lived for a long time. It won't work if she commits suicide, that's why she needed the help from Squall. This implication wasn't used in this game, because if it was used, Squall would be given fewer chance of killing herself, he just runs away, becoming more emotional or whatever.

    That's flawed though, if Rinoa dies on the ground, the angel still revives the others. I have another theory on this one as well. That Rinoa may be part of the Ulti's plan also (Ulti giving her powers to Rinoa), because I believe U=R, not R=U

    Yes, sometimes angels don't show up but I think that's because Ulti was getting badly hurt off and on at a time.

    It might not make sense but it does sound very interesting, I'm not shooting it down for that reason.

    Then what do you think caused those angels to co-exist? And why.

    It has been a while since I last played. I guess I didn't find them memorable.

    I didn't see any in-game evidence to support this.

    I'm not sure if the angels are connected to Rinoa per se, but the makers sure wanted us to associate Rinoa with angels.

    U=R? Oy gevalt.

    Edea knew that she wanted to give up her powers, she told Squall that.

    Then why does this dialog
    "in order to die, you need to give up your powers, getting killed, praying, blah blah...." exist? I mean, if special people want to last forever, then this dialog would have never existed.
