Thread: Her Eyes Symbol?

    So, Kefka and Ultimecia are both crazed nihilists with the power to end reality. That actually makes sense. Don't know why you didn't say that at the beginning and had to make that connection using a spade/nutsack in a character's eye, but cool.

    EDIT: Wait, I only read the bit about nothing, Kefka and Ultimecia. Clearly, what I'm saying actually doesn't relate at all to what you're saying.

    They do.

    If they weren't evil clowns or playing tricks on us, they would have had ended everything without any problem. How can tiny particles stop that? I know that it wouldn't be a story/game if that was truly the case, but still.

    What are the possibility and probability of such very powerful and gigantic spells being stopped by such tiny particles (characters)?
    Very extremely low, I'd say.

    Both Ultimecia and Kefka have represented a style of 'clown' in one way or another. And plus both of thier spells are equivalent to each other. Therefore, the connection of Ultimecia and Kefka isn't a coincidence.

    Or that is a tradition in Final Fantasy games that the party defeats the evil powerful guy at the end. Probably something to do with companionship beating loneliness, good beating evil etc.

    Yeah. Remember the end of FFVII, just before you fight Sephiroth the whole party is floating around and he's just blasting you back. I think Red says something like "He's way too strong". It would have been no fun if Cloud had just said "You're right" - - Game Over.

    Cats aren't the only critters with eyes that don't have round pupils, you know.




    Her eyes seem to share a similar pattern. A number of reptiles have eyes shaped like that. They squeeze down into just a couple tiny pinpricks in bright light.

    Well the Lions repersent Squall in my opinion, I dunno if the ones at the Ignions have anything to do with this theory of mine, but, I am sure that there are a few examples in the game that lions are meant to represent Squall, and eyes may represent the love theme of the game, hence more evidence this is Rinoa's eye in the parade clip, as well as the evidence I posted earlier.

    Also, the eye belongs to Edea, not Rinoa. Look at the reflection it it. It is reflecting the view out across her float, not the view looking down at Squall.

    You can see the view Rinoa would have though from the angle though can't you? Edea wouldn't have been able to see Squall from that angle. (Have to double check) Also, there is a tear in the eye - Rinoa's the only one who should be crying realistically.

    I don't actually see a tear in that. I certainly don't see Squall in that reflection (and Rinoa was looking at Squall, so if it was her eye, we should see him).

    And Edea doesn't have reason to cry? Trapped in a prison of her own mind, forced to kill a boy she raised as her own son, powerless to help him? She has plenty of reason to cry. And maybe that's all she can do while possessed.

    I think a lot of people here see things which I can't see! I bet you all have the ultimate eye!

    I'm gonna say the eye does look sad and I do think it looks like an inverted Squall in the pupil so it would most likely be Rinoa's eye.

    HOWEVER why the smurf did her pupil disappear to be replaced by Squall's silhouette? There is no logic in that, which kind of undermines the entire thing.

    It's not even the right eye color to be Rinoa. Her eyes are a very dark brown. Edea is the one with the goldish green eyes. And, quite clearly, that is her pupil, and is likely just a part of the same sort of distortion to her face that makes her look a little less human (which you can also see running along the bottom of the pic, beneath her eyes). It was part of the character design, either just to make her look cool, or to physically symbolize the evil and corruption.

    its not Rinoa, look at this:



    Her eyes are clearly human eyes.

    You guys are taking this way to seriously, her eyes a spade or not, who cares? does this make any difference to the game what-so-ever! the answer is clearly no, so lets not get in a twist over it mmmkay!

    Aside from that this is clearly not the case that the clowns on the clock mean that Ultimercia "is like Kefka" can you really be serious? what about the fact that the clock is there in the past with Laguna?

    I already have more than one hobby, buddy. Thanks for the advice, though. Want my advice? Stop telling people what to do and stop thinking irrationally. If VIII was truly my only hobby, the only hobby I have, I'd be posting on this forum more than normal. I have an irregular activity on here, sometimes I'll be here for a day, or two, a week or two, and then that's it. I'd be back after a week, month, 2 months, 3 months or so later.
    That's advice my friend.

He tries to remember Rinoa but ends up remembering Edea and so ends up out of place in time.
    For countless times, it's Matron, not Edea.
    Matron is her title... not her name.

    Squall: What...? (The headmaster and Edea are married!?) (...I don't get
    it.)
    Note before they have the "we were all at the same Orphanage" scene Squall refers to her as Edea, as does everyone else, only the people who were at the orphanage refer to her as Matron, its her title like Mum or Dad, were YOU at the Orphanage? Was Iceglow? I think not.
