- Triumphant in their battle against Caius, Serah and Noel return to Academia and witness the direct effects of their journey through time.
Background tracks: New World by Charice, The Goddess is Dead
And no I definitely didn't procrastinate uploading this video for so long that I eventually forgot altogether.
Guys, the name of the first song that plays is called New World, by Charice. Any other songs are listed in the video description. Just getting this question a lot, so hopefully this gets the word out faster.
Pinoy pride
Japanese version is yakusoku no basho e
Love Charice!
What she wrote the song He dedicated to a father who died of cancer a couple years previously
@@brettkimura I like Charice too.BUT DAMN!!! They should at least cut the music on Serah’s death!
Dying as a seeress must be terrifying. You literally get a sensory overload, witnessing trillions of flashes of events and people and every detail in between of the past and future and present, until your brain can’t take anymore and fries.
The Sad thing about this ending is that everything you did was a waste of time and pointless. Killed caius, serah dies, world plunges into darkness, noel spends 5 century's being depressed about everything thinking its his fault omfg what a depressing but realistic ending
SpikeySenju SSJ kinda reminds me of kingdom hearts birth by sleep
I agree. Realistic.
No you just did something wrong there’s two endings this and the true ending
@@pasta8985
This is the true ending. All the others are just paradox endings.
Ho
The saddest, creepiest and most twisted ending I have ever seen any FF series. Just wow
Type 0 was more like a typo.
Master Keeper
"Creepy" and "twisted"?
Sorry but your interpretation for this ending is just wrong lol.
you must have not seen ffxv
@@starrynight5207 lol, how is ffxv worse... noctis died and everyone else had a happy ending including him in the afterlife with luna. Serah dies in this, noel feels responsible and chaos takes over the world, ending time, aging and natural death.
@@Heldemon noctis had a happy ending with luna. i should have clarified that ffxv had the saddest ending, not twisted. i love the ending of ffxv
The saddest part is that serah knew she was gonna die,yet she continued forward
The law of the farseers...
Ide say whats even worse is Lightning knew Serah was gonna die. She knew how the whole thing was gonna go, says it herself. Which is a hige part in why I think Lightning isnt the good guy she seems to be at face value. She admitted that she saw from Valhalla exactly how the journey was gonna go and refused to answer Serah when she asked about them going back home afterwards. She knew that sending Noel and Serah on this journey meant ending the world.
Well I mean --- you know you're going to die one day, yet you keep going forward too.
@@Xarkom89
Damn i was just bout to say that
@@zemosion1129 lightning isnt the bad guy tho serah knew the risk with every vision she kept having of the time line it was draining her life force slowly yet she saw the journey through even if it costed her her life what matter to her was that everyone have a better future and be happy also lightning couldnt help serah she had to stay in Valhalla which is why she sent noel through time to journey with serah and protect her
serah: died
square: lets play happy music at a characters death!
I think everyone was already prepared for her death, it's hinted at throughout the game, I guess the music at the beginning makes you forget it's going to happen so it's more of a shock factor? Idek xD
The lyrics aren’t happy at all
@@theunexplainablecrumbs4387I wasn’t prepared it still broke me
It's more emotional that's why. It messes with your feelings and has a bigger impact
I swear when i 1st saw this ending with a friend we we're dying at this music, it felt like a fever dream or fan meme 😂
I’m not sure why... but I love that this ISNT a happy ending. For me, this is an iconic twist ending. We had one job lol, and we just totally failed
actually i had watched/play before most FF at ending isn't happy at all lol
Lmfao you’re so right, refreshing, staggering and memorable ending. However most of the times ff always has bittersweet endings, but this one was flat out terrible in the best way possible.
I remember this. It shocked me at first. I mean, it shouldn't have, because they throw hints in your face that Serah's death was inevitable the whole game, what with them repeatedly telling you that her life span drains the more she sees a vision of the future. But I didn't really take that seriously and thought "Eh, she'll be fine".
Then she actually dies, and I'm literally like "Oh...". The thing is that I somehow still had this small feeling that something bad was about to happen. The musis is SO freaking _happy_ and _sappy,_ like it was all too good to be true. It all looked to wrapped up and clean by the end. I didn't bawl my eyes out, but I liked Serah, and I _felt_ sad, and I felt even sadder for Lightning when she found out her sister died. That poor woman already had enough to deal with, including guilt, survivors guilt, and blaming herself for things that were out of her control, and as an older sister, she felt that she failed Serah (even though she didn't, Serah pretty much tells her as much).
Still, I AM glad Lightning gets her back in Lightning Returns. This ending was a slap to the face, in both a good and bad way, and this trilogy deserved that happy ending.
Damn nostalgic. Those long ass nights trying to plat this game. 😢
Rizky Fajar Adiputra long nights of rubber banding my controller for the casino trophy
@@cole9693 ahhh I'm doing that now
And this is why Noel and Serah have been shipped by fans for so long. Seriously, they made more sense than when she was with Snow! I mean seriously, they forced it down our throats how much they love each other and yet here Noel is crying over her and saying how much he wanted to protect her. Yeah.... Sorry Snow, but I think you should have shown up more than you should have in this game
it's because we never saw snow and serah meet, bond, fall in love etc as it is with normal couples. that all happened with these two (except fall in love ofc)
Agree so too they have chemistry.. but I could say the same Noel and Yule. I find Yule more of a little sister to Noel.. rather then a lover
@@4eversupersonicgirl ever play FF XIII?
@@vanphongnguyen5935 no i only saw cutscenes on YT
@@4eversupersonicgirl lol,so i guess you not even played XIII-2 yet right? lol let me be honest with you,between serah and noel is the most "partner-in crime" kinda relationship ever,they are only helping each other to get their goal,nothing more,not once in the game they shown that they like each other, only a small group that likes to ship serah and noel maybe becasue they like noel so they like him to get the girl,but definitely not serah who likes him
This ending threw me for such a loop when I beat the game the first time. I was like “Yay we saved the future! Wait..why is she...OH NO NO NO WHAT. WHAT DO YOU MEAN SHE’S DEAD. TO BE CONTINUED?!?!? WHAT THE HECK?!!!!” I just kinda sat on my couch in shock.
I had that loop too even today. makes me cry ;-;.
this happened to me but i was like 10(?) when i watched my cousins play it. this crushed me as a child there's no reason why i shouldve seen it. luckily boys being boys, they threw on filthy frank so i didnt cry to my dad LOL
fun fact: i actually had to call into work to take the rest of day off because I was crying too hard. the more you know.
SuperStokeed lol
I feel that
Omg! I’m with you!
@I Am Who I Am yes :( baby want binky
@I Am Who I Am YES
I really liked that Serah died because it fit the narrative expectation, that Seers die from their powers, yet it still punched you in the gut when the scene came.
Then they retconned it at LR. D:
This entire game's premise is built around a retcon so I fully expected another one in LR lmaooo
Well they didn’t really retcon it at the end of LR, technically the people that have died are all still dead at the end of LR, it’s just that their spirits pass on to be reborn in the new world.
Mermaid 7 Yo I put about 300 hours apiece into each game and your tone isn’t appreciated or necessary. We can get into the technicalities of what is and isn’t a retcon if it’ll make you feel better. The fact of the matter is XIII clearly had a definitive ending that was completely rewritten at the start of XIII-2. THAT is technically a retcon, and what I’m referring to when I say XIII-2 was entirely built around one. LR is a different case, with a storyline literally built around saving everyone who has died and will soon die. Technically not a retcon because the storyline clearly established it as a goal. It didn’t change events in XIII-2 or rewrite them. I fully acknowledge that the cases are different. However, have you never heard the term used in reference to a storyline just not. letting. people. stay. dead? Because people do use it that way. Is it technically correct? LMAO no. It’s not. SO sorry. I REALLY apologize for using a technically incorrect term and I REALLY hope this long, unnecessary explanation sets you at ease.
Mermaid 7 Also I like how a year ago someone said the exact same thing much more politely than you, which is why I didn’t feel the need to respond. But you clearly wanted me to, since you posted the comment twice and tagged me in it the second time. I hope you at least feel a little superior for being more correct than me. 🤷♀️
It kinda reconned her death but in a way that made sense with the story they had built going into lightning return cause alot of people when they saw lumina for the first time myself included thought it was a reincarnation like what happens with yuel in 13-2 but then we naturally learn the trust and that lumina was the part of lightning that bhunivelze took from her that also contained serahs soul.
I remember I just finished the game at 2am. I dropped my controller and just stared at the title for 10 minutes shocked at what happened. Why I love FF13 series.
I'd just like to point out that I always saw Noel's love for Yuel as a platonic, older brother sort of love. Which is still just as deep and just as valid. But his bond with Serah felt romantic to me.
Sadly he loved his yeul lumina even comments on it in lightning returns
Even now this still brings me to tears. This is still my favorite Final Fantasy game, hell maybe my favorite game in general. Its one of the few I can pick back up any time and always enjoy. I still get goosebumps every time too, the voice acting is done so well that you cant help but feel it every single time
Zemosion I agree 🤧👌
this game is the one i've replayed the ending the most out of any other game. SOOOO under rated. the scene between noel and caius is just UGH SO GOOD. SHE DID IT FOR YOU!!!
That bell sound effect is something I could listen to for hours. It’s so haunting yet so calming.
the bells remind me so much of Doctor Who when you hear the bells in that you know something bad has happened or is about to happen
It’s my favorite part of this video
That scream hurt my soul.”SERAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!”Fuck dude my heart.
Voice actor put his entire being into that scream. 😭
The happy music lead me into a false sense of security.
That was not cool.
@Mermaid 7 The lyrics are sad, but the beat and melody gives off a different mood entirely: Cheerful, hopeful, positive vibes. It's not at all what one would expect for a death scene.
Yeah, and back then we were pretty sure we would get a happy ending. Before they released the game, I read an interview of the devs and they said they did FFXIII-2 because lightning wasn't smiling at the end of FFXIII and so they wanted to make an happier ending. So this was truly unexpected, we would have never guessed that there would be a third game after this one. So this ending was totally mind blowing for me, I love it
@@Arkounay Wasn't smiling? Didn't she get Serah back? They showed her falling into another time and space. The devs could have left it alone after this game. It's actually tragic that Lightning would lose her sister twice, and not even know this after the second game. I wonder how she took it, when she found out Serah died. I never played the third game.
That's what makes it so good. They made us believe everything was going to be okay. And then rip our hearts out with no warning.
They waited until the very last second then decide, ok now that we got them thinking we're not gonna rip their hearts out, /kill Serah
... I THINK the reason why New World keeps playing after Serah dies is because there's still hope for a bittersweet ending. Yes, Serah's dead, but she protected the future. Her death seems like a heroic sacrifice. One life... for the future.
And then the sky starts darkening, and the music cuts out because THEN it's clear there's no happy ending. Etro is dead and the world has fallen into Chaos.
Noel and Serah have completely failed, and her death is meaningless.
Ohhhh! That's a neat observation actually!
Noel loved Yuel but I REALLY feel like he loved Serah so much more. fml MY HEARTTT
MissdermeanerJ I feel like he loved serah like a sister.
MissdermeanerJ Maybe
BRO THEY DANGLED THAT SHIP BETWEEN NOEL AND SERAH SO HARD I ALMOST FORGOT SNOW EXISTED AND I WAS LIKE FUCK, SHE'S ENGAGED I FORGOT. Their songs are literally about their thoughts about each other! AND THE WAY HE HELD HER CLOSE WHEN SHE DIED IN HIS ARMS--- WHERE TF IS SNOW HM?
Honestly if Snow had never existed, even in XIII, and this story was all about Serah meeting this guy from the future and falling in love with him while trying to find her sister, blah blah cliche blah, I WOULD BE SO BEHIND THAT. IT WOULD BE BEAUTIFUL. AND I WOULD LOVE IT.
although i still like Snow, so I feel bad for suggesting that he not exist.
MissdermeanerJ I ship them so hard even tho I played ff13 first but Noel and Sera has undeniable chemistry than Snow and Sera
I just cry everytime I see this... mostly because of Noel... he has lost everyone who was important for him...
I remember being so caught off guard by this ending the first time I played through it. Played it completely blind. Didn't look anything up or anything that could spoil it. Apparently I wasn't registering all the little hints that are given leading up to the end of the game that I was surprised when it happened. Then as the credits were rolling it all clicked lol.
What makes me so mad with this ending is the fact that we played ALL of xiii 1 to save serah and then she just gets killed off. Like.
Exactly. It makes no sense.
Why it dosent make no sense, it s exactly like in real life... Maybe you spend you're life trying to protect a person and than she suddenly die, you can't do anything about it
Thank god she revived at the end of Lighting Returns
who else ships Serah and Noel?
loooots of people. they do look good together tho
Me ^_^
Just no. Serah x Snow, all the way.
Cindy Dreemurr. Noel x serah forever!
I do
You know the infamous Tweet about The Last Of Us Part 2 "name me one character who went through more pain...it's okay i'll Wait" Serah couldn't even get on the box of her own dang game. She's not even in the logo.
It threw me off and I’m glad it did.
I replayed this game and still threw my controller. Well done Square Enix, feels were overloaded.
What made the ending more sad is that serah knew the exact moment of her death, so she made sure to thank noel just before she dies :(
I cried so much of this ending. You CANNOT tell me Noel did not care for Serah. I can see it and this is one of the hugest and biggest reasons I ship them together hardcore. I never loved an ff couple besides Tidus and Yuna, I love Noel and Serah together sooo much. I dont care if it's not canon. To this day, I love Noel and Serah together💙
Same.. me too..
Same
true i ship them too but isnt serah inlove with snow..? or i dont know ff13 lore
@@randomperson9583 Serah is enganged to Snow lol. They were about to get married after all of this.
@@J5ODK Yeah i watched the scene where he asked her to marry him and bro i was mad shocked bcs when i first saw ff13 i thought they had a old brother and young sister figure relationship not knowing they were canonly inlove but yeah😅
Man, the biggest crime in LR was turning Hope back into a child. He looked so fine as adult.
I'm so salty like, I ship these two together so much ;____; -kicks snow and yuel out-
Careful you'll ship them to
@@jerrytrout8343 i don't ship snow nor yuel
both are a joke
I have beaten this game at least 20 times, and I cry every time. Now, every time I hear this song, I am gonna cry and think about this moment
Holy fk
Gawd,I LOVE Noel,he's protective and loving of his friends and those he cares about,if only he was real T.T
Who cares what people think? FFXIII-2 was an amazing game
Agree
HALA KUYA CLARO HAHAHAHAHA
Awkward happy music in the background...
Xcelleration Morales It grew on me though. At first I was like, what the hell were they thinking choosing lame ass ballad song for this moment.
if you would actually LISTEN to it... it's not cheerful at all fucking dumbass
It reminds of me The End of Evangelion where a seemingly happy (but not happy) song is playing and a bunch of effed up stuff is happening at the same time.
Now I miss Charice. She was still feminine when she sung this
Xcelleration Morales XD YA
The best tragic ending, I literally cried when I first played through the game and got to this... Serah ❤️
I honestly don't care what people say about this game. It's the most underrated Final Fantasy in the series. 12 is good but it's not the most underrated as it's known by. I find the story in this game to be more interesting and I can't even begin to tell you the good times I had with FF13-2.
Ikr
We can note that we hear the bell rings exactly 13 times as in the spin-off Lightning Returns at the end (I don't spoil why we hear that)
To think, she just kicked some ass only to have her future powers kick her ass.
Frozen Fusion.
are caius brothers youl or what ? please answered me because i didn't know any thing
kill you no caius is just yeuls guardian in charge of looking after yeul/yeuls
Everyone says that Noel loves Serah but haven’t you noticed that lowkey Serah started loving Noel as well.. you could see it in her body language, the way she looked at him, especially when things got emotional. The main one being this scene when she told Noel “thank you” you can tell she really wanted to say that she loved him before she died.. she was just hesitant on expressing her feelings because of her connection with Snow but you can see how that was being overridden throughout the game. Their relationship was so much better portrayed than of that with Snow by tenfold.
Serah was the true Yeul that Noel became a guardian to protect..
Everything is so positive, and then GONG!!
yep them Bells Ringing always bring bad news in time travel storys
3:48: Even you know it was coming, as a grown ass man, - 10 yrs after finishing the game - tears still burning, especially when Noel's scream at 4:03 hits you through marrow and bone....
Very unhappy plottwist and ending, but it makes the story exceptionally intruiging.
They took this song "New World" sung by Charice off of Spotify. So here I am. Actually glad to see this ending cinematic again. It's so emotional. I know a lot of people didn't like the FFXIII Trilogy but I did. I love this scene and I hold it right up there in emotional attachment to my nostalgia as the !!!SPOILER WARNING!!! goodbye to Aerith in FFVII. This song and ending has a lot to do with why I love the FFXIII Trilogy so much.
Noel and Serah fit way more together then Snow and Serah. It's just that Noel care more about her then Snow ever did.
Snow say he loved her and all but i don't really see the proof.. Snow was a good guy in final fantasy XIII But in Final Fantasy XIII-2 i just feel like his such a jerk.. hmpf.. That is why i really wonder if snow ever really cared about serah.
The proof from noel is right here: 2:43 - 3:54 . Catch her when she ''falls'' that he got her! 2:55 : He cares for her and ask her if she is doing allright! 3:50 : He doesn't wanna lose her. 5:30 : He touch soft with his hands and understand her even when she no longer there. 5:38 he gently rub in her hair. 5:44 : He wanted to protect her! (He actually did compare to snow that just ran away and just wished to see serah.) after playing and looking closer to the history. Snow did ''care'' for her in Final Fantasy XIII But after seeing this how snow is now compare to noel.. i think the best should have been noel. and 5:49 : He hold her close and are in pain and grief because he thought she was safe.
NOEL! YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN TOGETHER WITH SERAH NOT SNOW! T^T.
Yeah i know what noel does in final fantasy return. but that wouldnt have happend if he choose not to kill: Caius Ballad to be a guardian...
An other topic: Hope looking so hot in this game it's unfair! so does Noel! - T^T
For some odd reason i like more animated men characters then ''real'' men. Please don't judge. :P
To me Snow loves Serah WAY more than Noel ever could. Especially seeing the events of Lightning Returns. I think Noel just took Serah's death hard because she was someone he wanted to protect but in the end lost much like what happened with Yuel.
It's true. We hardly see Snow and Serah together so it's just way to hard to picture them together. Noel and Serah look better together because we CAN see what they've been through.
Exactly!
Shaney Zamora Yes but what we DO see clearly tells anyone that they do indeed love each other. We see Snow propose and Serah accept and kiss him. Then there's the sequel, where no one believes Lightning is alive except Serah and she's very torn up about it. But Snow DOES believe her and goes to great lengths to help find her to make his fiancée happy. Then we get to Lightning Returns where Snow is VERY depressed over Serah's death. Not a day went by in those 500 years where he didn't think about her and how he believed he failed her. I don't know about you, but that says love to me. And it's not like people need to constantly express their love openly for it to be true.
It isn't that I don't ship Serah and Noel together, because they do LOOK good together. But as a dynamic I feel they're very... blase. They definitely care a lot about each other. I've written this about the subject (took me forever to track it down and my tone is snippy but this is because I'm rehashing through something I've talked about a million times(which is why i'm copy/pasta here because i don't wanna type it out agaaaain) and it's also the respond to someone else's argument so remember context when u read pls)
";;I agree with all the bits that concern Serah, but Snow is unjustly vilified for his actions in XIII-2.
Snow 'wasn’t that great to her', except that he spent an entire game fighting against the world, risking his life and maybe even dooming himself to become a monster, all to fulfill Serah’s final wish. He left New Bodhum for Serah. To find the sister that she was so heartbroken over losing. Snow was the only one to believe in Serah’s memories, even when everyone else believed that Lightning was dead.
I’m sorry that Snow wasn’t leaping for joy over a wedding that didn’t even have a set date yet. Considering that he left his engagement pendant with Serah in New Bodhum, it was highly likely that Serah already knew that their marriage was on hold, and chances were, Snow figured she knew that, too. He put their engagement on hold because he thought that it wasn’t 'the right time for a wedding' (transcript from the Graviton Core fragments), not because he didn’t want to marry her or wanted to keep her waiting.
There are other things. If you play through Sunleth as Serah, Snow actually APOLOGIZES for leaving her and tells her that they’ll search for Lightning together after they defeat His Royal Ripeness. Of course, that doesn’t happen because Snow dissolves when the paradox does. When Serah talks about the fear and loneliness she felt when turning into crystal, you can SEE Snow hurting for her.
The love is not one-sided. Yes, Serah clearly loves and cares for Snow, and that love and care is very obviously returned. People need to quit blowing Snow’s behavior in XIII-2 out of proportion, because he was most definitely NOT 'a total jerk'."
Like I said I have a guilty pleasure for Noel/Serah but you can ship it without making it out like Snow doesn't care for her. Also the above argument was written months before Lightning Returns came out so if anything is off canon-wise, that's why. SORRY FOR THE ESSAY :'D
Made me cry for 2 hours after seeing this end screen i always cry when watching this so much emotions
*SEEEEEEEEERRRAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH*
Gives me the goosebumps. Think it's time to replay this series.
Let’s face it Noel had some feelings toward Serah and she did as well
When the hell did I caption these videos like I know I did but I forgot HMMMM
Can't believe I still get a little choked up at the end so many years later. Amazing series
Man the animation and detail of her eyes shaking always gets me and Noels concern and screaming out her name 😢
You know what hurt most is how the music still played when serah fell. Like music stop. 😭😭😭😭
8:05 YOU WERE NOT PREPARED!
What the heck! If you (square enix) want to make Serah x Snow and Noel x Yuel, make it better so! If like this, for all this action, care and cutscene i like Noel x Serah more. Just give Yuel to Caius and Snow to Lightning =_=
SAME. OMFG SAME. Noerah all the way!
4:05
If the ending stopped right there and left everything after for some sort of 100% ending, it would’ve been PERFECT. I feel like this world ending event happening RIGHT after you see your MC die invalidates the former. I think it would have left a bigger impact to make Noel holding her the last image (most) players will see.
Woulda made me so hype for 13-3
Agreed but Noel would have had to been the lead character in 13-3
3:40 that thing they did with her eyes was scary as hell when I first saw it.
Thanks Noel because of you we all be able to play Lightning Return xD
Then a portal opens
“Come with me, Max. I haven’t told you everything.” - Goofy
KH crossover confirmed.
This is mad
goofy
I love it
It’s crazy cuz literally every other paradox ending is happier than this one 😭 like they really made the darkest ending the canonical one
The Heart of Chaos paradox ending is the biggest downer besides this one I think. I wish the uhhhh the one where you foil Alyssa’s sabotage and Serah goes on an adventure with Snow alternate ending was the canon one. Probably would have made for a better XIII-3 than what we got, too.
3:04 Game ends here. There's no more video after this point!
HAHAHAHA
Looks like you don’t want your heart broken :c
SnowxLightning
NoelxSerah
Should have been the official pairing.
TheUnfinishedStory THIS!
TheUnfinishedStory lightning X hope :v
doubt snow would have survived this longer than a month
lightning x fang ✔
Agree
I remember this scene when I was younger Noels mourning never left my memory.
What noel experience here losing serah. caius went through it 100000 times more with yeul. so it makes sense for caius to do what he did.
Back when first playing it on 360, I thought I did something wrong at one point in the storyline when this ending came. X) Believed there was more endings than one after seeing this (not going to spoil by saying more, since have reading up on it later). A sad conclusion to any FF game I've played, but....if all the games ended well, it would prob be abit...boring,right? Soon gonna play Lightning Returns for the first time (yeah, I'm sure wayyyy behind on that part) and see how XIII's second sequel brings this story onwards.
Wizzrobotix well there are some alternate endings but none of them end very well. like this one
The ones mentioned in the manual, called Paradox endings, right? :)
Correct
Type 0 also ended bit sadly
SEEEEERRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
Don’t let this distract you from the fact that they refuse to put the trilogy on PlayStation 4/5.
I love how ffxiii forces snow x serah
but ffxiii-2 noel x serah
and then xiii-3 throws in noel x yeul and serah x snow which feels really forced and awkward??? I don't understand why they made it that way??
I think Noel and Serah were intended to be nothing more than close friends, but they look good together and feel good together; this, coupled with the fact that they failed to make Noel's feelings for Yeul completely clear in XIII-2 is probably what lead the developers to sort of throw Noel/Yeul and Snow/Serah in our faces in XIII-3, as if to say "No, you guys got this completely wrong. THIS is what we meant." Personally, Noel and Yeul together never did feel quite right to me, but I love him so much that I have this sort of "If that's what makes you happy" mentality when it comes to Noel lmao
If thats what they wanted they sure as hell sent mixed messages with the amount of UST between Lightning and Snow 'First cutscene alone'
Eh, I never felt this UST personally, but everyone interprets things differently. I do kind of wish it had ended up that way, though.
Screw that. NOERAH ALL THE WAY! I SHIP IT!💙🙆♀️🙆♂️
Serah you worked hard to keep the timeline like it is. You changed the future for everyones sake
6:44 I love that creepy choir in the background, can't stop replaying it!
I ship Noel and Serah ten times more than Snow and Serah….
“How do we want to end our game and reward our player?”
“I know!”
Me when Serah dies:
Me when Moogle dies: NOOOOOOOOOOO KUPO FOREVERRRR NOOOO
Man. I swear. I've played this yesterday, and when Cocoon fell, I felt a weird feeling. Like, it actually seemed poetic. And when the new Cocoon came in the air, I though "Damn, that's it. Future is saved". BUT THEN SERAH JUST DIED. And from the moment the stumble appeared on her eye to the second the "To be continued" appeared on screen, I was just repeating to myself "She isn't dead, she isn't dead, FUCK, SHE CAN'T JUST DIE"
God damn it why this this still hurt 10+ years later?
I’ve never played this game but this scene gives me chills
This ending must have given the people who worked on it some seriously sadistic pleasure. Holy hell is this dark
I know I've probably said this before but I keep coming back to this video every so often because I just can't wrap my head around something. Lightning KNEW exactly what was going to happen AND the effects it would have on the world, when she says she can see everything from Valhalla, she isn't bullshitting. She knew that sending them on this adventure would not only kill Serah, but it would also end the world. had Lightning not sent them out, 90 to 100% of what happens in lightning returns would NOT have happened. Lightning already knew the end result. it kinda makes you wonder if all she wanted was to take the place of a god even if everything dies to get her there, even her sister
I want to differ and tell you that Lightning also was gifted with Eyes of Etro but because she was in Valhalla, she is the only one that could see everything in all realms in the past and future. She also could contact any person in any time through dreams. Most likely she already knew, but as a Seeress, she isn't allowed to change her own fate to stop her sister's death.
Almas Jabeen where is it ever said that Lightning is Seeress? I've played and beaten all 3 games and that was never mentioned
sterling liechty a few hints were dropped throughout the game series. Quite a few story speculations from websites have written that. But it would be cool to find out from the creator himself lol
Almas Jabeen a big thing with the Seeresses was that each time they saw a change, it shortened their lifespan. and Lightning was still able to die in the 2nd game so it seems a bit weird that she wouldn't have since she not only saw the things that were changing before Serah and Noel went out but also during and after.
Almas Jabeen not to mention Lightnings entire motto throughout it has more Or less been "fight fate" she's ALWAYS been disobedient af in the games. there has never been a point where she's told she can't or isn't allowed to do something, and didn't end up doing it.
After countless hours of love poured into my play through, THIS. WAS. SO. FUCKING. UPSETTING.
I dont have any idea why people hate ff 13
did anyone else cry there eyes out :'(
the clock chimes are very haunting
I cry
still vibin to this in 2021..... i love this game and i always will, cocoon falling always gives me the chills
Liam O'Brien talking about chaos makes much more sense now with Nightbringer Yasuo.
I cry everytime when see this video 😭😭😭
NOOOOO 😭😭😭😭 SEERRAAH 😭😭❤❤❤
I cry all year still am
I m the only one who crieds more about mog then Sarah?🥲
When i finish this game, it was a big shock, the happy ending music, serah's death and the music still on, and then valhalla is unleash, with the voice of caius explaining all, Noel feeling guilty...and then lightning turned into crystal...Caius won...wow
Final Fantasy 13 is something different. After 13-2's sad ending, 13-3 (Lightning Returns) sees Lightning returns and kills the bastard of a "god" Bhunivelze that causes all these. My favourite Final Fantasy actually.
This makes me cry😿😿😿
I was so upset to have the ending spoiled just before I finished it because I googled something. But after a second play through I noticed it is hinted a few times or maybe several times, but I didn’t realize it in the first play through. It is a beautiful ending, I love so much about it even though it is supposed to be sad.
I still wish the gameplay looked like this oml
Maybe we'll see it it on the ps5...I mean kingdom hearts has similar graphics ish
Me somewhat as Serah: I sacrificed my life gave it up over to death so that humanity can live, with their ungrateful asses. From now on I'm perfect plus perfectly beautiful. If I come back...I swear to real God I got the answers the victory to everything, coming back as a teacher to this dam world
Come to think of it...in a simulation I did sacrifice my life to death to save all humanity. Matter as well be counted as real.
The price of freedom is stepped
ZAAACCCKKK...
I'll be honest, this was one of the best endings ever, then part 3 was handed the baton and ruined that amazing run
If I die I smile to know my time is up
Since it's release I've felt that final fantasy xiii - 2 was a better final fantasy than it predecessor.
Justin anything is better than the sequel
Snow.. Yeul..who?! Noerah is so cute and organic duo with great bond (platonic or romantic whatever). Maybe in the different timeline Noel is Serah's Guardian and they continue to travel together🤗
Love these games, Part 1 a Final Fantasy story, Part 2 one of the best time travel games ever, Part 3 a Groundhog Day type game. I have some new games coming out in the next couple months, between games I always revisit old games, I think the Final Fantasy XIII series is next. Lastly, am I the only one who thought playing through Part 2 that Noel and Serah belonged together, not Serah and Snow, they had more in common, especially since Snow just disappeared.
