You are not wrong, in fact all f the sephiroths you've fought through most of the game were fake. This has been discussed a TON on a lot of boards, there should be a FAQ about it by now :x_x:


FF6 spoilers ahead, too many to cover:

as for Kefka, what makes him so scary are the things he has done to the world, and how he can kill so easily without even a second thought, and then give a sickeningly ominous laugh. At first he seems just like a bad egg with an extremely evil disposition, someone that is annoying and needs to be taken care of (kind of like Zorn and Thorn, except more evil). Later on though he really starts to develop into a mroe evil forboding character when he poisons doma castle. Then when you go to the magitek factory.. you see another ugly scene where he kicks the corpses of some espers down a conveyer belt.

Kefka seems to gradually lose his 'pathetic' charm and become a scarier, more dangerous apponent. When he begins meddling with the statues, betraying and killing ghestal, and destroying the world, I was truly SHOCKED when I first played the game.

What makes kefka so scary is how he is 'unfolded' to the player. He is seen initially as just some crazy underling of ghestal, but quickly changes. There is nothing likeable about his personality, he is simply an evil bastard that is worth slaughtering. When I first fought Kefka, it was definitely a fight I was nervous for. Kefka is indeed 'scary' in a sense (maybe not totally literally, but I can't think of a better word).
