For example,

Eden looks like a garden, definitely. How did it happen? Where did it come from ? Why has it to be based on garden? Who possessed who out of his/her mind to create Eden? I think White Wing was involved because Squall and his party used Eden to hurt Ultimecia (Black Wing).

Let's compare that to what Ultimecia has done; she possessed Rinoa's mind and created Griever GF.

Ultimecia hating SeeDs and gardens, and then there's a White Wing Eden GF thing. Coincidence?
Here is a picture of Ultimecia from the ending FMV.

And here is a photo of Rinoa from the ending FMV.



Already, I can tell you that Rinoa's face is rounder and less angular than Ultimecia's face. Her nose is also softer and has a gentler curve than Ultimecia's sharp nose. The lips are similar, but again, Rinoa's are softer. Now, here are two more photos.

Ultimecia.


Rinoa (I'm sorry about the size, but it needs to be large):



Look at the eyes. Rinoa's eye shape is different to Ultimecia's. And of the utmost importance, Rinoa has dark BROWN eyes. Ultimecia has bright YELLOW eyes.

So, judging from these in-game FMV shots, Rinoa does not look like Ultimecia. Therefore, they cannot be the same person.

On a sidenote, I'd like to thank Final Fantasy Shrine - The Ultimate Final Fantasy Fansite for providing these photos (except for the ballroom dance one, I got that from somewhere else), and for asking me so politely to add this footnote.
