History Fridge / DeadFantasy

* A female warrior appears over a battlefield and whisks the heroines in battle away to do battle elsewhere, in more brutal and savage conditions, apparently in preparation for a greater battle. She comes complete with sword, shield, and wings, completing the classical look associated with a certain Norse god's agents. That's right; ''Rinoa is a freaking [[{{Valkyries}} Valkyrie]]!'' Of course, FridgeHorror might kick in when you remember that the Valkyries were the "Choosers of the ''Slain''"....

* When Tifa is absolutely thrashed after her magic heavy combo attacks in the second part, It's Yuna who comes to her aide with potion and either. [[WhiteMage old habits]] [[CombatMedic die hard, 'eh Yuna?]]

* ''WebAnimation/DeadFantasy'' music videos. They say if one should want to maintain their appetite for sausages, they must be careful as to not being present when they are being prepared. The music videos, too, apply: the gentleman responsible for these impressive animations are said to have employed the technique of mocap-ing himself in order to capture the delicate, acclaimed movements. The subtle hip movements near the beginning of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFrlFeK8guY Obsessed]]" may lose their savour once a viewer learns of this truth.

* Rewatch ''DF'' I and II again and notice the tactics used. While the ''FF'' girls tend towards teamwork and combination attacks (like the Haste casting), the ''DOA'' girls try to force one on one battles, and only gain an upper hand when the ''FF'' girls are outnumbered (and therefore splitting focus).
** No they don't. Team DOA uses ZergRush tactics throughout the series. Each time the FF side tries to even the odds, another member of the DOA side jumps in. The last minutes of part II is the only time the FF side have had the numerical advantage. Otherwise, it's always Team DOA ganging up on 1-2 of the FF team.

While the ''fighting game characters are more effective in one on one battles'', the ''RPG characters are more powerful as a team''.
** Possibly leading to even more brilliance when you consider just ''when'' the ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'' girls start to kick ass. In the first video, Team ''FF'' start getting their act together when Tifa joins Yuna and Rikku and brings their total number to three - the smallest possible "full" party of any ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'' game. The team gets to an almost [[GameBreaker game-breaking]] level of power when Rinoa and Kairi appear, bringing their number to five - the ''largest'' party possible in any main-numbered ''Final Fantasy'' game.

* Lots of entries on the main page note how ridiculously hard to kill the various (non-mook) combatants are. This makes perfect sense when you remember that every game referenced in the series makes full use of CriticalExistenceFailure.

* Possibly leads to even more brilliance when you consider just ''when'' the ''FinalFantasy'' girls start to kick ass. Consider the first video, where Team ''FF'' consists of only Rikku and Yuna, who hold there own but are eventually overwhelmed. They start getting their act together again when Tifa shows up, bringing their total number to three. Three party members, which incidentally happens to be the smallest "full" party in any ''FinalFantasy'' game, as several games allow only three characters to fight at most. The team then gets to an almost [[GameBreaker game breaking]] level of power when Rinoa and Kairi appear, bringing their number to five. Five is the largest number of party members allowed to fight in a battle in any of the main numbered ''FinalFantasy'' games.

* FridgeLogic
** Taking the third FridgeBrilliance bullet into account, you really have to wonder ''why'' Rinoa chose to split up the fights...
** For the moment, the only answer is RuleOfCool and ''possibly'' plot reasons. Rinoa's only showed up once so far, physically, and DF6, 7 and 8 haven't come out yet.

* FridgeBrilliance:
** Notice the kneeling pose Tifa is in during Part V, after coming out of the flashback. It is ''the exact same pose'' she has in ''FFVII'' when in critical status - in other words, right before unleashing her Limit.
** Equipping Materia gives you powers, but decreases your total HP. Tifa may have lost her magic when she lost her umpteen bazillion materia, but given how many lethal-looking attacks she tanks after...
** Rewatch ''DF'' I and II again and notice the tactics used. While the ''FF'' girls tend towards teamwork and combination attacks (like the Haste casting), the ''DOA'' girls try to force one on one battles, and only gain an upper hand when the ''FF'' girls are outnumbered (and therefore splitting focus).

** In Dead Fantasy V, when Tifa is hallucinating before her HeroicSpirit moment, it shows her waking up at the tower from Dead Fantasy 1, in the same place she jumped in and saved Yuna and Rikku. A single white feather falls down by her side. Given that Rinoa has the ability to teleport people and that she has white feathers on her wings, could it be that ''she'' was the one who transported Tifa there to help Yuna and Rikku in their hour of need?
