Squall is very much alive, thanks. Rinoa wouldn't have looked so thrilled after the whole flower scene. And he's not shown in the credits because he's out on the balcony putting the moves on Rinoa. ^.~
Square just did that to put the gamer in suspense. "is he going to make it? FOR HEAVENS SAKES IF HE DOESN'T MAKE IT SO HELP ME I'M SWIMMING TO JAPAN AND TAKING OUT THE ENTIRE COMPANY! I hope he makes it. ;_;"
It was a very stressful thing for me the first time I saw it.
