Reason 95 Why Final Fantasy 6 is the Most Awesome: Ultros

Posted

by

Ultros is a recurring bad guy in Final Fantasy VI. He is a delusional, carnivorous octopus. He’s not all bad, though. He tells cheesy jokes and hits on female party members. People like him so much they do cross stitches with him in them. He’s so loved, he is going to appear DLC in Final Fantasy XIII-2. A much cuter version of him is also in Theatrhythm Final Fantasy.

In fact, he appears in a lot of other Final Fantasy games.

I’ve been replaying Final Fantasy III (VI) on the SNES and have decided to document 100 different ways how VI is better than any of the Final Fantasys released in recent years. I think I can come up with 100. If not, I’ll just unceremoniously end this segment.
