But this particular one puzzles me, have a look at this image:



Look at the poster on Dr. Kadowaki's wall. It has symbols that are anti-clockwise. At first, I thought the poster was for eyes testing purposes since Kadowaki is a doctor. But testing students' eyes via reading symbols that happen to be anti-clockwise? That doesn't make sense.
1. The circular symbols are not counter-clockwise.
2. The symbols as a whole are not clockwise or counter clockwise, as can be seen by the second row.

So, why was the poster there? What's the true importance of itself?
Eye testing using a system we are not aware of.

Even stranger that her husband can catch you if you do something bad in game. Like, if you cast magic inside the Garden, the badass ninja will come to you and derank you all of a sudden. How can he catch you so fast?

More to the point, clockwise means progressing with time. Anti-clockwise means the opposite.
No, Clockwise means turning in a fashion so that if you draw a line from the center of the circle to its edge and stand it on its edge, as the line points to the right it falls, and as it points to the left it rises. Counter-Clockwise is merely the reverse.

I think Ultimecia actually came from the past, and Squall / Co. actually came from the future. At least in terms of time-travelling... or the complications of time compression.
Even were your ideas regarding the counter clockwise rotation's relation to time correct, this does not logically follow from that premise.
