* The soldiers in Scande Tower make sense, as do the suits of AnimatedArmor to a lesser extent, but what's with the giant crabs?

** Fairly recent moves by Capcom (licensing of the manga adaptation and (finally) re-release of BoF IV on the Playstation Network) do show that the rights aren't in as much legal limbo as thought. This includes level-up cards in the "Heroes and Heralds" mode for Ryu (from the original ''VideoGame/{{Breath Of Fire|I}}''), Nina (from [=BoF=] II), Fou-lu (from [=BoF=] IV) and Lin (from ''Dragon Quarter'') in the upcoming ''Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3'' which pretty much settles the question for the licensing (re the one game in the series where there may have been licensing issues).
** In addition--there ''has'' been some fairly recent discussion of [[BoF]] finally ending up in a VideoGame/CapcomVs (in some method other than a "card game cameo"); according to a developer blog for ''Marvel vs. Capcom 3'', they ''really'' wanted to put Fou-lu in but decided not to at the last minute due to the MvC series being heavily geared towards US audiences. If a [[BoF]] character ends up properly in a VideoGame/CapcomVs, it's probably going to be in a "versus" game that would be popular in Japan (for example, ''Tatsunoko vs. Capcom'')--especially since the same developer blog, they ''still'' want to eventually stick a certain god-emperor in a VideoGame/CapcomVs at ''some'' point.

Redundancy, grammar and spelling mistakes and general formatting problems


** Technically (per [[WordOfGod Word Of Capcom]] in the [=BoF=] III and ''Breath Of Fire Complete Works'' artbooks) she is supposed to be a Grassrunner (dog/canine people)...but her subclan had to have been particularly long-eared. And no, you aren't the only one to think "BUNNEH GEEK GIRL" seeing her for the first time--pretty much this troper wasn't sure ''until'' reading the info in the artbooks...

*** They're not bunny ears. Take a look at her ears, then look at Scias' ears (in Breath of Fire IV). Not quite identical, but more similar than not. She just falls under the BizarreSexualDimorphism / CuteMonsterGirl trope and so looks less obviously doglike.
