The most touching moments of Final Fantasy

This is a short list for me. Because I have only played a few Final Fantasy games. Final Fantasy (3,4,6,7,8,9,10,12,13 and Tactics) This list my opinion if you don't like go fornicate yourself with a rusty pipe.

This list is only 5 places long so don't expect much

5. Serah Becomes a Crystal from Final Fantasy XIII. It is touching because at the very beginning of the story we are introduced to the fact that no matter what they do their course is predestined to become either a crystal or a monster.

4. Garnet and Enio Summoning Alexander In Castle Alexandria from Final Fantasy IX. A touching moment and gives you the impression that Enio and Garnet may or may not be sisters or at least half sisters.

3. The Opera Scene from Final Fantasy VI. While not as tear jerking as say the death of Aeris from Final Fantasy VII, the lead up to it is amazing and all the events after just solidify the moment as one of Final Fantasy's most touching moments.

2. Parom and Palom becoming stone to save the party in Final Fantasy IV. A scene that can Rival Aerith's death from VII because it gives you the emotion that holy fuck two of my characters just bit the dust. While only with you a short time the pair grow on you and become this emotional support to an already beautifully crafted story with characters you can easily invest yourself in. Here watch, this clip comes from the Nintendo DS remake of the Final Fantasy IV.



1. Aerith's Death, Final Fantasy VII. This scene alone had gamers young and old weeping. You spent hours upon hours days upon days (depending on how meticulously you spent level grinding and getting everything you can on the first disc) building this character up, you see the love between Aerith and Cloud blossom from small to genuine love. Then Death from above. The spark that lights the fire in the soul of the heroes to make you want the bad guy to pay with his life for destroying Aerith.



I hope you have enjoyed this list. Please feel free to comment and tell me which moments you thought were touching and impactful in the Final Fantasy Series.
