Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV / int_1237828f | comment |
Anyone Can Die: At the start of the film, Queen Sylva gets killed by Glauca before Ravus's eyes. Then, Lazarus kills Crowe during her escort mission. During the Niflheim invasion, Regis and the ruling council and most of the Kingsglaive members including Lazarus and the turncoats are killed. Then there's also Nyx's death at the end of the film. | |

Tempting Fate: When Regis tries to shield Glauca's attack, he asks, "what more would you take from me?". In response, Glauca chops off Regis's fingers, which results in the latter losing his ring. When Glauca asks Nyx how he is going to defend Insomnia without a wall to protect it, Nyx activates the legendary Old Wall, i.e., awaken the titanic statues of the old Lucian kings. | |

The Cameo | |
Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV / int_1b65dfad | comment |
The Cameo: Wendee Lee voices Queen Sylva, though it's just her shouting "Ravus!" in the prologue. Jamieson Price and Kyle Hebert are among the credited voice actors for the unnamed Glaives who mostly shout and grunt through the movie. The former's baritone is recognizable in the Glaive who gets stabbed in the back, but lives long enough to destroy a Niflheim warship's reactor. Lex Lang just so happens to be the Niflheim officer who utters in a harsh tenor "Release the Daemon!". Kirk Thornton voices the newscaster announcing the peace treaty between Niflheim and Lucis. Masi Oka portrays a bureaucrat. He gets his own special credit. Michelle Ruff plays Nyx's sister Selena. Keith Silverstein plays the bartender; who also gets his own character short as a tie-in. Ray Chase, Adam Croasdell, Chris Parson and Robbie Daymond all reprise their roles as Noctis, Ignis, Gladiolus and Prompto in The Stinger. | |

Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV / int_239ba401 | comment |
Doesn't Trust Those Guys: Regis and the Lucian council give off this vibe when the peace treaty is offered, but even more so when the signing ceremony takes place. The tension in the room is very austere with each side giving icy glares at each other. It ultimately culminates in a mexican standoff between Aldercapt’s imperial escorts against Regis and the Lucian High Council. | |

Mythology Gag | |
Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: The "Daemon" that the Niflheim military sets loose in the opening battle is the Diamond Weapon from Final Fantasy VII in all but name.note The soundtrack even names the piece used during its scene as "Diamond Weapon" The party on the eve of the treaty-signing is taken directly from old Versus XIII concepts; complete with "Somnus" playing in the background, and Nyx serving for Noctis's substitute when he converses with Luna under the painting of Etro. There is a building called the "Bank of Spira". The designs of the five past kings of Lucis we see onscreen are suspiciously similar to Final Fantasy VII's Knights of the Round, and are even named as such in the ending credits. | |

Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV / int_295087bf | comment |
Non-Indicative Name: The Old Wall that is supposed to protect Insomnia in times of dire crises is not a wall per se. It's actually the statues of the deceased Lucian kings being brought to life to repel the invaders, so when Ardyn praises "the might of the Old Wall", he's referring to these titanic statues. | |

Batman Gambit | |
Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV / int_38d02d44 | comment |
Batman Gambit: Niflheim's conquest of Insomnia invariably depended on a complex chain of events that ultimately leave the king and crystal unguarded, that somehow hinged on Nyx's reaction to Crowe's death and interaction with Luna, and could have gone wrong at any point. The fact that they have numerous moles in Insomnia and among the Glaives helped. | |

Foregone Conclusion | |
Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV / int_3bc88a7f | comment |
Foregone Conclusion: This movie is a direct prequel to Final Fantasy XV, but from the game's beginning (as well as associated pre-release footage), we already know that: Niflheim destroys Insomnia and steals the Lucian crystal; Luna escapes to Altissia with the Ring of the Lucii; Ravus gets his arm burned and has it replaced with a prosthetic; and Noctis and his party get stranded when their car breaks down. The main purpose of Kingsglaive is to explain how these plot points from the game happened. | |

Subverted with Drautos, who states to Nyx that he feels betrayed by Regis, whom he feels has abandoned Glaives' homelands just to save himself, but at the same time talks with disdain about the king he served. | |

Body Horror | |
Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV / int_504a1991 | comment |
Body Horror: As the climax's fight progresses, Nyx's body starts to get riddled with Volcanic Veins as a sign of the Lucii's power eating away at him. By the end of the fight, most of his body is burnt and he has lived through two spontaneous combustions, only to die anyway due to the pact with the Lucii. As we find out in Final Fantasy XV's ending, this is a side effect of using the power of the Lucian kings to its fullest extent, as Noctis ends up with similar burns as he performs his Heroic Sacrifice. | |

Brought Down to Badass | |
Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV / int_51a485d1 | comment |
Brought Down to Badass: All magic in Lucis stems from the royal family and his bond with the crystal and the Ring of the Lucii. When Regis dies, the bond between him and every person he had granted magic to breaks, with no other royal in the area to reforge the bonds. This reduces all of the Kingsglaive to their natural abilities, which can still be pretty impressive. | |

Man on Fire: When Ravus puts on the Ring of the Lucii during the Niflheim invasion, the ring rejects him and promptly burns his arm. Lazarus is similarly immolated when tricked by Lunafreya in putting on the Ring. At the end of the film, Nyx spontaneously combusts twice as a sign of his powers letting him down as dawn approaches, though he manages to warp away and shrug off the fire both times. | |

Attack Its Weak Point: The Daemons fielded by Niflheim have an obvious core glowing red on their chest, implying it's their weak point. The problem is, these monsters are skyscraper-sized, so there's next to nothing that can dent them. Fortunately, the animated statues of the previous Lucian kings are equally gigantic and have enough strength to crush the cores, and they kill off a number of Daemons this way during the movie's climax. | |

The standoff is only broken when the Magitek soldiers crash through the window and start gunning down the Lucian dignitaries, with Aldercapt walking out without so much as looking back at Regis, who is forced into the defensive. | |

The sheer impact of the teleportation is enough to create a miles-wide shockwave that stuns the Daemon, and the statue proceeds to bifurcate the building Nyx and Glauca are in, forcing them to fight as the skyscraper collapses. | |

Foreshadowing | |
Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Quite a few happen in Kingsglaive: Drautos states to Nyx that his strength only comes from the king, and that he is "nothing without the king". As soon as Glauca slays Regis, Nyx and the rest of the glaives lose their magical powers and the former has to deal with his and Luna's pursuers with raw physical skill. "For hearth and home!" The homes of the Kingsglaive members are outside of Insomnia, so the minute Regis agrees to relinquish those territories to Niflheim, most of the Glaive turn traitor. Several scenes linger on the various monumental statues of the previous kings of Lucis, if only to give an eyeful of the scenery. They're actually an approximate representation of the spirits sealed in the Ring of the Lucii, and the statues themselves are brought to life in the film's final battle. They're also the looming silhouettes presented on the North American cover of the game. Nyx uses the powers of the past Lucian kings to fight Glauca at the cost of his own life. Guess what happens to Noctis at the end of XV? | |

Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV / int_a1e5faab | comment |
Doomed by Canon: Most of cast that appear in this movie don't do so in Final Fantasy XV. Sylva (Ravus and Luna's mother) gets killed by Glauca during Niflheim's invasion of Tenebrae as seen in the Distant Prologue. Crowe does not get mentioned at all in the game, since she gets murdered by Lazarus here. The Niflheim invasion of Insomnia dooms a lot of characters, including Regis, Clarus, the Lucian Council, and the Kingsglaive save for Libertus. Glauca does not appear in XV except in flashbacks to the film, and Ravus being promoted to supreme commander heavily implies that Glauca perished in his fight with Nyx. | |

Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV / int_a201dad2 | comment |
Passive-Aggressive Kombat: Moments before signing the peace treaty, Regis and Aldercapt get into a discussion on how justice should be served when a thief appears at the most inopportune timing. Both sides are aware that Lunafreya's abduction (and baiting) is what's being discussed, and both sides are already ready to hold each other at gunpoint, treaty signing be damned. | |

Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: Something as simple as Drautos assigning Nyx Ulric to protect Lunafreya ends up seriously screwing over the plans of Niflheim and Ardyn in the long run. Nyx ends up doing his job a little too well, proves to be worthy of the ring, is granted its power and defeats Glauca and the Niflheim invasion force while Lunafreya flees the city with the ring, eventually getting it to Noctis who goes on to save the world from the Starscourge and defeat Ardyn with it. | |

Luna when Glauca kills Regis before her eyes. | |

Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV / int_b5e63cc4 | comment |
Shadow Archetype: By the end of the film, it becomes clear that Drautos is one to Nyx: both are elite soldiers of Lucis who originated from the lands outside of Insomnia that were conquered by Niflheim. But while Nyx grimly accepted Regis's decision to give up all territories save for the capital city and remained loyal to him until the bitter end, Drautos turns out to have been much less accepting of it and secretly plotted against the king by manipulating the Kingsglaive and a few anti-peace sympathizers, along with outright appearing as the Niflheim general Glauca. | |

Sadistic Choice: After putting on the Ring of the Lucii in a desperate attempt to stop General Glauca from killing Lunafreya, Libertus and himself, and the spirit of King Regis vouches for Nyx and how his actions will play a major role in deciding the future, the other Kings of Lucis decide they will grant Nyx the boon of power from the Ring of the Lucii. However, because he is not of Royal blood, he will have to make a choice of sacrificing either Lunafreya (his current charge of protection) or Libertus (his best friend). Nyx rejects the offer and instead chooses to Take a Third Option, offering his own life. | |

Bystander Syndrome: The old kings of Lucis are largely uncaring of whether or not Insomnia falls, as they focus on the greater scope of the future, and do not take kindly to Nyx entering their realm, pleading for them to do something about Niflheim's invasion. This changes when Nyx calls them out on it and shows them that he's ready to stake his life for the future. | |

Impaled with Extreme Prejudice | |
Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV / int_c93a6560 | comment |
Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: Ooooh, boy. Let's count the ways, shall we? In the opening, Queen Sylva of Tenebrae gets impaled by Glauca during the Niflheim invasion. Nyx steers the hijacked Niflheim transport down to a spire, close enough to impale the Ultros that was sticking to the ship. Clarus gets killed by his own sword after Glauca violently throws him to a wall and throws said sword one second after. Regis is killed when Glauca runs him through from behind with his sword, in a manner eerily similar to Sephiroth's murder of Aerith in Final Fantasy VII. During the climactic battle, Somnus's statue throws its sword in the distance at the the Niflheim warships and warps away, only to reappear with enough momentum to nail a Diamond Weapon through its core, causing a massive explosion that lits up the sky. Finally, Nyx defeats Glauca by driving his kukri through the general's chest, just as the aforementioned statue drives its fist through the last Diamond Weapon's core. | |

Their commander Drautos is actually General Glauca, Supreme Commander of the Niflheim army, and also the one responsible for the deaths of King Regis and (indirectly) Nyx. | |

Many of the Kingsglaive turn out to resent Regis for sending them out to fight and die in a losing war while the people of Lucis hide behind the New Wall, seeing it as abandonment of their homelands. | |

I Will Only Slow You Down: Happens twice with the same characters, but reversed: In the opening, Regis pulls Lunafreya with him while carrying Noctis as they flee Niflheim's forces. Lunafreya realizes Regis can't run fast enough with her in tow and lets go of his hand, staying behind so that he and Noctis can escape. Years later, Lunafreya pulls an aged and weakened Regis with her as they flee from Glauca. Regis, having entrusted Lunafreya with the task of passing on the Ring of Lucii to Noctis, lets go of her hand. He creates a magic barrier to keep Lunafreya and Nyx from stopping him, while wishing Lunafreya the best. | |

11th-Hour Superpower: An interesting case in the climax where Nyx had been Brought Down to Badass a few scenes prior due to Regis's death depriving the Kingsglaive of their signature abilities; he uses the Ring of the Lucii to regain those powers in a buffed state, enough to contend with Glauca's raw strength. This, however, also turns out to be a case of Power at a Price, as Nyx eventually dies from borrowing the Ring's power. | |

Product Placement: A customized Audi R8 serves as Noctis's transport. There's even billboards advertising Japan Airlines in one of the scenes in the film. Uniqlo stores are visible in one scene in the film. Also you can see the Beats headphone brand logo in the background of one scene. Cups of Nissin instant noodles can be seen in the film. Taito arcade machines are visible in one scene of the film. | |

Complexity Addiction: The Empire's entire invasion plan in a nutshell. First, offer a peace treaty. Second, kidnap Luna. Third, lure her bodyguard to a specific location, then kill the bodyguard and dump the body somewhere conspicuous. Fourth, assume the body will be discovered before the invasion. Fifth, assume someone notices something amiss as her place of death is nowhere near her assigned mission location. Sixth, assume the Kingsglaives sent to rescue Lunafreya will know where to look. Seventh, place a still respected royalty of still-exist kingdom in your invasion fleet (putting her of anti-air as well as monsters in their cargo). Seventh, make sure the subverted Kingsglaive members are included in the rescue attempt. Eighth, place their emperor, acting chancellor, and the empire's most competent and senior ruling bureucrats in the heart of the enemy capital, right in the middle of renewed hostilities. Finally, begin the invasion and enact the plan to steal the crystal. Spiriting Emperor Aldercapt and Ardyn (and anyone else, if there IS any) away safely seemed to rely on dumb luck on their part, if steps number 4 and 5 worked at all. They should have invaded right away (or at least, order Turncoat Glaives to sabotage important defense mechanisms and/or incapacitate defenders, particularly loyal glaives) as by then they are less trustworthy then before, seeing as they broke their promise of peace. Well if they use simpler plan, it wouldn't make good film or at least as make it far shorter story. | |

Last Stand: Regis attempts to do this against Glauca after he orders Nyx to escort Luna to safety. Unfortunately for Regis, Glauca runs him through with his sword before Nyx and Luna's eyes. At the end of the film, Nyx orders Libertus to take Luna to safety before he makes a final stand against Glauca. | |

Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV / int_f91d1d4f | comment |
Darkest Hour: Some time after escaping the combined forces of the Niflheim and the traitorous Glaives, Nyx and Luna head out to the extraction point designated by Drautos in hopes of evacuating. Instead, Nyx gets grievously injured, and the culprits behind the weakening of Insomnia's defences reveal themselves, ready to take away the Ring that Nyx and Luna tried so hard to keep safe. Insomnia is also about to be razed with the unleashing of the Daemons. | |
