Kind of a silly question but GAME END SPOILER

[SquallsAngel]

I've seen the ending fmv several times, and I like to think that everyone lives happily ever after but I noticed they don't show squalls eye's opening, just Rinoa reacting to him, and it doesn't show him on selphie's home movies. I don't have any complicated theory to prove I'm just wondering if anyone else noticed this; it threw me off the first couple times I saw it cause I thought he was dead and his spirit was watching over Rinoa since he swore he'd always be her knight; but he doesn't look "spirit-y, he looks solid. Perhaps I'm just delightfully Mad...

Michael: Jim, now is the time to stop putting Dwight's personal effects into jello.

Jim: Ok. Dwight I'm sorry, because I've always been your biggest flan.

Michael: [laughing to Ryan the temp] Ooooh nice! That's the way it is around here, just kinda goes 'round and 'round and 'round.

Ryan: You should've put him in custardy.

Michael: Hey yes!!! New guy! He scores!!!

Dwight: Ok that's great. I guess what I'm most concerned with is damage to company property. That's all.

Michael: Pudding...pudding...I'm trying to think, what other dessert to do?

[boys from the dwarf]

sqall isnt dead. he survives. so due to that random story thing you posted below your question id say that you might just be delightfully mad.

LOL it's a quote from the office




I thought he was going to die as i watched the ending and remember thinking "wtf". but no your right squall lives on BOOYA

[kikimm]

Didn't you watch the very last part of the ending? That should eliminate all thoughts about him being dead.

Or maybe I'm reading what you wrote wrong, or something. ;P

[AdVincent]

Can someone refresh my memory on this? I thought Squall died as well...what proves that he didn't?

[Jessweeee♪]

Here's what happened (spoiler, duh): Squall ends up in the desert-like floating piece of land where you fought Griever. Eventually he somehow winds up near Rinoa unconcious and Rinoa finds him and cries (tears of joy and relief). We are lead to believe he is dead because, well he looks dead, and in the credits Selphie's video camera runs out of batteries just when Squall would have come in the frame.
ALWAYS wait until after the credits when playing FF!!!

Let the credits run. After the credits theres an extra FMV revealing that Squall never died...

[Vyk]

Yeah, he kisses Rinoa. Why is everyone avoiding mentioning that. It's the LAST SCENE once the credits are done. After the home video thing they show them out on a balcony under the stars. Falling star. She points to it. He grabs her wrist and pulls her in. They smooch. Fin~

See, that's the part that confused me, you don't see him react w/ anyone but Rinoa, so I wasn't sure if we're supposed to interpret that as his spirit or actually him in the flesh, but If everyone says he lives I'll go w/ that, I like happily ever after better than cold lonely death

Thanks a bunch!

[AdVincent]

Yeah, I thought that was just Rinoa thinking of him after seeing the shooter star. Though fantasizing that you're making out with the guy would seem rather weird...

[Vyk]

Wait, Rinoa wasn't on any of those videos either was she? Its not 'cause she was dead. She was outside with Squall o_O;; there's no deep meaning

[TheAbominatrix]

Rinoa is in the video, briefly, before the batteries die. She's shown reacting to Squall, doing her little finger nonsense.

If Squall WAS dead, Rinoa wouldnt be interacting with him at all, and the rest of the party wouldnt be jumping around squealing all happy-ending like. Squall isnt dead. He's off on his own with Rinoa, which is very Squall-like if you ask me. He isnt the sort to be mingling at a party.

[The Devourer Of Worlds]

Whether Squall lives in the end is the same sort of question as to whether Kuja dies in the end of FFIX; all evidence points to yes. They most likely chose not to show Squall in the video tape simply for dramatic effect.

[Vyk]

I'd have to agree with 'natrix on that issue. I don't think there was deeper meaning there either. Avoiding being video taped just seems like a very Squall thing to do

...This is like the 5th person who doesn't watch after the credits... All Final Fantasy games have something after the credits!!! (Kingdom Hearts too) REMEMBER THIS TIP!!!
