History Headscratchers / FinalFantasyV

*** "Mu" is the power of the void.

* Faris' mug has his [[spoiler: rather her]] hair back but the sprite has PeekABangs. Why?

* Why the hell does Azulmagia ask your party if they bore the crystal shards? Shouldn't a minion of Exdeath of all creatures know who the enemies were? Then again, this is the same enemy that kills itself when you use Self-Destruct on it. It's even worse when you say No. Screw PaperThinDisguise, who needs it when you're dealing with [[WhatAnIdiot an enemy this stupid]]?

* This is something I just realized thanks to the DegradedBoss page: How is there an enemy in the third world called Ex Death's soul, if Ex Death isn't actually dead?

** There's also the fact that the mug is blonde while Faris' sprite [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair has purple hair]].

** Because Amano's art, which is used by the mugshots, is often treated more like a suggestion by the actual sprite artists. Nobody in the game (and hardly anyone in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI'') looks like their mugs.

*** This makes me wonder if, if the game was produced now, ''especially'' with the respective virtues[[note]]This
game's original release ''[[OlderThanTheyThink predated]]'' [[Anime/DigimonAdventure Digimon]], so Fire=Courage [[ShoutOut would've been kept]]; still, "passion" is ''wind'' now, ''[[HotBlooded really]]''?[[/note]], Faris and Bartz would have switched elements. (Faris becoming Wind (with perhaps a different virtue?) and [[TheHero Bartz]] [[LawOfChromaticSuperiority becoming]] Fire). Granted, the fire-connection itself could've come with gunpowder, but we don't see any cannons aboard ships [[InformedEquipment even as flavor]].

*** [[BiTheWay What heterosexualities?]]

** My guess? He's a BadassGrandpa whose in good shape, and has aged well. The "Old" effect doesn't change his age so much as is changes him to a version of himself where he DIDN'T age well.

*** I'd rather utilize a SuperSentai - [[PowerRangers st]][[Anime/RoninWarriors y]][[SpearCounterpart le]] [[HenshinHero transformation]]. Helps with the [[FetishRetardant Galuf]] problem. Faris would likely prefer it too, as it helps maintain [[SamusIsAGirl the gender illusion]] a little longer.

** Faris being affected can be [[HandWave handwaved]] by saying he remembers more than he verbally admits. Seeing the Princess of Tycoon wearing a pendant matching his own and seeing King Tycoon in person(ish?) at the Wind Shrine has jogged his memory just enough to make him vulnerable.

*** "Kururin" is the Japanese name of a well-known ''DragonBall'' character, and given the usual pronunciation of single ending U's, Kururu should basically sound like his name without the "in" at the end. He's called Krillin in dubs. Thus, Krile might be pronounced "krill".

** Faris being affected can be [[HandWave handwaved]] with her remembering more than she verbally admits, what with seeing the Princess of Tycoon wearing a matching pendant and seeing King Tycoon in person(ish?) at the Wind Shrine.
