Although the Job System is nothing new to FinalFantasy, FFV mixes up the format by having the jobs only activate in battle (as the out-of-battle Freelancer sprites are kept), thus we can conclude that the crystals serve as {{transformation trinket}}s. Other elements of the game that make it look sillier than other installments can also be attributed to this.

Omega is the same 'dragon killer' from the bestiary logs in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXII'', and the myriad other Omegas and Omega Weapons seen in the other games, save for FF10[which is EXPLICITLY Stated as an Unsent, instead of a mechanical/biological superweapon like the others]. Meaning that with each successive Omega model destroyed, a new, more POWERFUL One takes it's place! Followed by numerous self-replicated versions of older models joining it, such as the Prototype and MechHead enemies. It leads to this factor:

The weakest of the 'Omega' designs is the MechHead, found in the Sealed Pyramid.

Afterwards came the '[[{{exactlywhatitsaysonthetin}} Prototype]]', from which the Mech Heads evolved, and the spidery metalbug-type Mimics from FF12 are their equivalent to the MechHeads.

After that came the WarMECH of FF1 fame, an upgrade to the Prototype made much more dangerous.

All in all, if one accounts the side-reports in the FF12 bestiary, the additional notes from the Urutan's entries, it's revealed thatthis thing was designed explicity to do this for one purpose... To hunt and kill an immensely powerful dragon.

The similarities seem quite obvious. Needless to say the deity(Deathgyunos) that Ra Devil revives using his body is non other than The Creator himself! Needless to say the True Moon must have had survivors from Final Fantasy IV The After Years.

Even an artist once he finished his work gets bored and wants to improve upon perfection. Of course it ''backfired'' in the rereleases because the ones in charge of said rereleases thought that Amano's latest artwork was the official which caused them to use it in the character portraits.

That door in Monstro Town is a passageway to the Interdimensional Rift, hence why Culex can visit from another world. He also claims to be fighting in the name of "The Dark Mage", a rather generic category that does not exclude Enuo, and his objective is to consume everything, which is indeed Enuo's current goal (that is, to consume everything with the Void).

The crystal shards on the first world contain the spirits of ancient warriors, and the crystals/worlds were split during the battle with Enuo in order to contain the Void. The Warriors of Dawn also use their united powers to have the Crystals seal the lesser evil of Exdeath. To stop Enuo, who was more powerful and had already summoned the Void, a HeroicSacrifice on a grand scale was in order. Only twelve of them laid aside their weapons to become the twelve Sealed Weapons, [[CrazyPrepared just in case]] they needed to be used again.

The splitting of the worlds birthed more worlds than was assumed; it didn't just create Bartz's world and Galuf's world, it created the other FF worlds. Since the crystals of other worlds were not destroyed, they have yet to merge back to the original.
