comment |
Before Final Fantasy X-2, there was this.Final Fantasy: Legend of the Crystals, known as simply Final Fantasy in Japan, is a 1994 Original Video Animation spanning four episodes, and the first anime installment in the something-somethingly popular Final Fantasy franchise. It is the direct sequel to the video game Final Fantasy V.For 200 years after the events of Final Fantasy V, the Planet R has become peaceful and serene. However, dark forces aim to upset this tranquility, and have captured three of the four crystals that regulate the planet's elements. Linaly and Prettz, the descendants of the previous game's heroes, are given the mission to protect the last of the four crystals, The Crystal of Wind.Final Fantasy: Legend of the Crystals is the very first sequel ever made to an existing entry in the Final Fantasy series, and the first animated installment of the Final Fantasy franchise. It was released in the United States on VHS by Urban Vision in 1997 (ironically, before the game it was based on was ever given a US release), but that release is now out-of-print.The OVA was not produced by Square themselves but rather by NTT Publishing with animation by Madhouse. |

Cold-Blooded Torture: Subverted. Rouge subjects Prettz to the terrors of... a tickle machine. Later when she tries to extract the Wind Crystal from Linaly, she opts to feed her prune juice rather than the gruesome vivisection that Prettz was probably imagining. |

Sudden Sequel Death Syndrome: Cid died in the immediate aftermath of the events of the game, and Mid Previa was murdered by Ra Devil very soon after that. Doesn't really count for the rest of the Light Warriors themselves, since there's no indication they died of anything but natural causes. |

Fate Worse than Death: Cid had hardly been buried when Ra Devil shows up, exhumes his corpse, cuts out his brain, and keeps it alive to extract Cid's knowledge of the Crystals. Mid explains that this has somehow kept Cid's soul from being able to pass on, and he's been forced to use his knowledge in Ra Devil's service for 200 years. |
