Bahamut is one of the most recognisable summons in the Final Fantasy franchise, having appeared in almost every Final Fantasy game ever made.
This has seen Bahamut appear as a Summon, an Esper, an Eidolon and an Eikon and he's had a major presence within games such as Final Fantasy XI and XIV. What's interesting though, is the common threads that tie Bahamut together, outside of him being a huge dragon that dominates the sky and uses Megaflare!

Does this mean that the other summons will get videos of their own?
Yes. I only recently (a month or so ago) discovered you Job evolution videos and loved them. I immediately searched your channel for evolution videos for summons but was disappointed not to find one. I therefore (after watching your job evolution videos) searched youtube for some summon lore videos and while there were a couple of good ones, I was disappointed to find very little that were put together as well as your videos. When I saw this come up on my feed yesterday I got very excited. Keep up the good work. Could I request you steer away from doing Shiva or Ifrit early on as there are already tonnes of lore videos for those two specifically. My personal request would be to do Odin next please.
this just minor issue, but probably you should reviewed the subtitle, as the way you pronounced bahamut, the sub showed 'muhammad' instead quite few times. thanks.
BROnion Knight Funny that you bring that up. Turns out that Bahamut (the fish) is a creature of Middle Eastern origin. So I find the error oddly appropriate.
An idea, mabey timeline videos of entire final Fantasy universes, like the complete history of the world of FF9, or 7,or 15,14,etc?....just an idea
I find it funny that the DnD version of Bahamut is essentially the goodest boy there ever was and then there’s FF Bahamut and he’s just like: feeling good, might wipe out humanity later.
The ff14 one "yeah fuck these guys I'm going to nuke them into a new timeline"
@@siffumetsu271 the original Bahamut was a benevolent soul as part of the first brood. The Bahamut that wants to kill us is just a primal summoned in his image.
To be fair. Bahamut in FFXIV (Final Fantasy 14) didn’t start off that way. He and his consort Tiamat raised their young in a far off land then he died and dark forces twisted his mind. (I’m still learning the lore but he was kind at the start)
@@Oiamh_TheWolf18 the Dalamund bahamut was a primal summoned by dragons. The Asians tricked them into it because the dragons thought it would revive him, not a twisted version that try to destroy the world.
@@cardboard5689 the Asians eh
I am actually interested in learning about the Elemental Trio, Ifrit, Shiva, and Ramuh
Ixion is better than ramuh
@@gejamugamlatsoomanam7716 Ramuh and Ixion combined is a thing to, First Boss of the actual Raidtier in FF14 xD
Well, for starters, Ifrit is based on an Arabic djinn which is probably based on an Assyrian deity (I forget which). Shiva is probably based on a Persian female deity by the same name and/or a male Hindu deity of the same name that is depict in blue and prefers colder climates (probably a combination of both) and Ramuh is based on the Hindu deity Indra the king of gods and controls storms.
Papa Haumaut is more interesting honestly
@@gejamugamlatsoomanam7716 ixion has no personality, even valefor is showcased more than ixion.
Ramuh is shown more personality and is an actual character in ff9, plus he just looks so much more powerful.
Bahamut: Tera flare
Donald: Goofy, hold my beer.
If you know, you know.
yep, the strongest bahamut.

Was looking for this comment
@@ultimatepredatorx2937 same lol
Yuffie:Look I got you Bahamut Fighter Z
Barrett:Actually it pronounce Bahamut Fighterz
Bahamut of Duty: Mega Ops Flare
The best abridged series I have ever seen.
Bahamut from X is my personal favourite.
Bahamut in X is the most badass one
Everyone loves Bahamut. It's so iconic.
Not me. Not anymore.
ua-cam.com/video/mYLQpYAZNgY/v-deo.html
@@shareefhaddad2377 lol wut
@@GIR177 in ff 15 bauhamut is kinda the reason ardyn became so evil
Depend on what kind of Bahamut, Best Bahamut from FFX, worst Bahamut from FFXV
@@thoaihoquang1578 the kind with wings ;)
Honestly, when it comes to Final Fantasy X, I used Bahamut more than any other Aeon. His ability to basically operate the same way as a regular character, due to the amount of spells he could learn, made him the best one imo.
My first instance with Bahamut was in X and he was super badass.
Mine was in FF7 and it was glorious
Guys what's the difference between bahamut and bahamut fury. Are they independent or the same summons
Mine was VIII. Still my favorite version is X. This Egyptian/Aztec look of his is awesome.
Mine was XV pretty neat.
UHH, FFX is the worst in the series. Looks like a bird.
Fun fact, in D&D Bahamut has always been Ice element and has 3 breath weapons: Cold Cone as his main one, a Gas Cone that stuns and turns the enemies into gaseous form and a Disintegration Beam, quite similar to Mega Flare but it's an instakill effect line that does half the regular breath dmg as non elemental if saved.
from what i know, at least in 5e Bahamut is associated with radiant damage
@@heitorpimenta6504 Very fitting, he is supposed to be the holiest of paladins but...a dragon too.
Older editions had radiant dmg as holy which was reserved for turning undead and fire/light/sun mid to high level cleric spells against undead and fiends like devils, daemons and demons.
It was pretty much unresistable but you also rolled higher dice when used against those types like going from 1d6 to 1d8 per lvl and 1d10 against undead.
Against normal creatures it was just normal dice but unresistable.
5e version is cooler imo, he's a unique dragon (platinum) so having a unique breath (radiant) is much more fitting as he doesn't seem cold on any way. My favorite role was a dragonborn paladin, nothing more fitting than that
Need a separate video for a more comprehensive lore on FF14's bahamut!
It's a really good story for sure, hope you managed to get atleast a basic storyline on it.
16 has the coolest bahamut fight in the series
Smaug: I am fire. I am...death!
Bahamut: Hold my beer.
Fatalis: Hold my fucking whiskey.
Wow. We know Bahamut is strong af but pls no disrespect to classic dragons espcially from Tolkien's work. Lot of FF materials were directly and indirectly from Tolkien works.
@Mr. SaladSpork Smaug didn't really suck. He just unfortunately appeared in a kid's book. He was the iconic dragon. It just so happened that he ain't the strongest as he was just a fire drake IIRC. And yes, Glaurung would totally be a good match against Bahamut but I believe Ancalagon is a better match against Bahamut because of the wings.
@@TheBukoStudio Look, I like Tolkien's works for what they are as well, but you're holding him in WAY too high a regard if you feel that he and any of his creations are somehow above taking a shit on. Tolkien was annoyed at the fantasy kitchen sink that C.S. Lewis cobbled together in his Narnia series, but he _really_ wasn't in any kinda position to act in any at all way holier-than-thou considering his bastardisation of Scandinavian and Germanic folklore. Me, I'd personally fully compare what Tolkien did with his works to what Disney did to Hellenistic mythology with their Hercules flick, or what Marvel Comics did to Norse mythology. (Did you know that the OG classical Thor of Norse mythology had a badass beard and was a ginger, and NOT, in fact, some nazi's clean-shaven and towheaded aryan wet dream?) So as someone with a bit of an obsession with folklore and mythology, do you know what I say to your "pls no disrespect to classic dragons espcially from Tolkien's work"? I say "To hell with Tolkien and fuck all of the classic beings from all of his collective works." And it's not without reason that I say this: What he did to the portrayal of fair folk/elves, dark elves/dwarfs and _especially_ wights was actually an absolutely _horrid_ desecration of their mythological and folkloric roots, and he's caused harmful ripples that have _defined_ our portrayals of these beings for decades and can still be keenly seen and felt in almost all modern fantasy works, from D&D and FF to a thousand different anime and manga series.
Ancalagon the Black exists. All the dragon related arguments here are invalid.
One of Tiamat's heads disliked the video.
would be interresting to see more summons. My first instance with Bahamut was in FF7, I think all three versions are badass, my favorite was Bahamut Zero
To this day those versions have hardly been topped.
19:33 "And displayed clear antagonistic qualities"
a nice way of saying Bahamut went crazy psycho batshit crazy
bahumut did nothing wrong.
did you see those barrels lol
2 years later, we finally got a Bahamut canonically stronger than an angry duck mage.
Ahh FFX Dark Bahamut...you got in my way for that final piece to obtain Tidus’s celestial weapon. Had to pay my boi Yojimbo most my gil so he could take you out in one swing. Thank you, Yojimbo.
Empty Melodies Yojimbo: No problem...
[holds out hand]
Now where’s my money?
Ye good thing you can get it right after Yunalesca, but if you miss it you are fucked.
Yojimbo is a real one
You don't need to pay him that much money his attack is base on RNG despite whatever you pay him.
@@danburgs yup and it's still had RNG on it so does not matter how much you spend.
I'd like to see Alexander's Evolution next
Same same hes my favorite summon
@@Miukaya Same! Always liked the idea of a Divine Mecha.
Same here. Would love to learn more about him (it?).
It takes some work to be a game's coolest boss, dungeon, and and boss summon, but Alexander manages it with aplomb
@@amiablereaper Fighting Alexander inside Alexander as it summons Alexander to help itself.
Always quality content on this channel
Thank you so much for the kind words Travis!
Final Fantasy Union wow, thank you so much for even acknowledging my comment. Thought the little thing I said wouldn’t mean much to you guys, but I’m super grateful and happy that you appreciated it! You guys are incredible content creators, that’s why I’m so shocked. Always look forward to the surprises from you all in my feed.
If you're planning on covering more summons, I'd suggest the trio of Ramuh, Shiva, and Ifrit next, either individually or in tandem, with Shiva first because she's my favorite.
Yes! Primary black magic element trio summon!
TianaSidhe Though Ramuh was occasionally swapped out for a different summon. Specifically Ixion and the Aztec Feathered Serpent whose name I can’t spell. Do those get merged into one video?
my fav summon and creature in final fantasy
Bahamut in Type0 was so damn badass and the fact that you get to control it is even more amazing!
I do wish you covered the additional Bahamut lore from the FF XV novel where he moves to active antagonist.
I wish the game was finished in general 😭💔
@@angelgard ikr! They canceled the DLC 😣😭
there's a novel?
@@bryansuminski7543 yep! Go check out : Final Fantasy XV Dawn of the future
Am I remembering, or isn't the novel's events non-canon?
Like- I know it's an alternate ending, but I forget whether or not they actually change stuff around to match it. If that's the case, Bahamut's character in the book may not exactly align to his character in the game.
Cool I was always wondering why the hell they interpreted bahamut as a dragon . Now explain why Shiva is a sexy ice queen instead epic party murder wrestler god. Regular Shiva was insane
I honestly thought he was 😆
And bahahaha on shiva
what if someone wanted a story that had a shiva, that is merged version of regular shiva and ff shiva.
Cuz stonks
When players call on Shiva, he sends Parvati instead because if he comes, it's the end of the world. Naaah, just kidding. Or am I? Hahaha
@@77wolfblade id imagine it could work ala smt nocturne baalzebul and beelzebub, just an alternate form but not their ‘true’ form
Bahamut in XVI is insane 🤯
Eikon Bahamut, love him in XVI but sadly isn’t the strongest iteration as that goes to Bahamut ZERO & Prime
@@Jumonjiidk i've never seen zero and prime use zettaflare
@@Fall-oo6mt never said they used it
@@Jumonji exactly
zettaflare is kind of the strongest attack bahamut has ever used
@@Fall-oo6mt Exa-Flare is actually the strongest attack from Bahamut Fury since he's top 5, Eikon Bahamut with Zetta-Flare is up there in the top 10
Bahamut is probably my favorite dragon from any piece of fantasy great video 👍
The visuals of such 90s games are shinier and brighter than my future and current technology itself combined
I know he isn't from a main game but I loved Caius Ballard's Bahamut. The idea of an incarnate summoning was brilliant.
Yes, Caius rules.
These are awesome! I cant imagine how long it takes to compile and organize all the information. Great job!
Bahamut in Granblue Fantasy is pretty cool too.
I think that’s the main picture in the thumbnail
REBIRTH AND DESTRUCTION
These videos are so well done man. Holy. You guys never disappoint.
Please do evaluation of White mage. I’ve been waiting for like two years for it.
I thought he had already done one. I'll have to double check.
Edit: I'm not finding one. Yep. He definitely needs to do one. White Mage is my favorite.
Bahamut EVEN GOT HIS OWN SPINOFF, Bahamut's Lagoon.
I'm really looking forward to seeing what other videos in this same vein that you have planned to do. It's awesome that I've found a channel that loves all the little details & idiosyncrasies that flow throughout the series just like I do. Y'all are THE BEST source for all things Final Fantasy on UA-cam, and I appreciate the level of detail and depth you go to on all of your videos. Keep up the awesome work!!!
I love how these videos also show the evolution of the series. I honestly love them!
Also i would like to see a Crystal Chronicles video in the near future. It can be on anything about them! :)
He did a few of them a couple of videos back
I hope you do one of my favorite summon, Alexander, some day.
Your "Evolution of" series is, IMO, the most interesting thing your channel does. I really loved your Red Mage, Black Mage, Dragoon etc. videos, too. It would be cool if you did a comparison video on Ninja and Thief, two closely related classes which are sometimes linked (FF1, 14) and sometimes separate
This was great! I'd love more Summon videos.
One of my favorite concepts is all the "unique" Summons, or ones that appear in just 1 or 2 games.
I loved it! I can't wait to see who ya do next!!!
Nice! Does this mean you’ll do videos on the other summons too?
Thought the same thing would like to see shiva lol
Did you listen to the last 30 seconds of the video? they asked that if you wanted to see that you should let them know in the comments so then they can see what the interest is
Aaron Skoby asking this question is a clear hint at them wanting it, right? So whats with the attitude?
Not Zekkyou It’s okay. I kind of didn’t watch the video yet (I had other stuff to do). I jumped the gun, afraid that it would be a missed opportunity.
They were asking at the end if we wanted more and the answer is of course
Very well done!! I really liked this new topic and the way you got into just how the game's versions of Bahamut have changed over time. Definitely would like to see more like this!
Really enjoyed the video! I've been creatively stagnant lately and I've been tryin to get the juices flowing by brainstorming how the mainline final fantasy games could work in a cohesive timeline and this really helps with that! I understand none of the games are actually connected but hey it's all in good fun
More like this please! Loved this breakdown.
Good stuff! Get to delving more. We'll be waiting for that quality content!
This is a wonderful video and I'd love to see more dives into the evolution of other summons!
Very nice video. I myself don't really play much FF, but I do like watching playthroughs of the games, and reading up on the lore. Heard of Bahamut quite a bit, but didn't really know too much about him, so thank you making this video, really helped me get a better understanding of the Dragon King's appearances.
Very solid content as always :) I can't wait to see how Bahamut will be pictured in FFXVI. Considering the importance of summons in the trailer, you know he has to appear.
And boy did it deliver 😳
@@HaykInWonderlandyeah..i was like Wooaah 😮
This is exactly what I needed to watch today
Great video as always. Absolutely cover more summons, it is very interesting! Another idea could be to cover different jobs/classes throughout the franchise and how they have changed.
I absolutely love this video, thank you. I was writing and wanted to put Bahamut in it and this helped me with that
Thank you for sharing this video! It was fascinating.
Please do more of this style.
This was awesome
This was a great video. Would like to see more of this!
This was so well done, thanks
Outstanding video, Bahamut was always my favorite summon
Bahamuts FFX design is phenomenal.
I just love Bahamut. Thank you for the video🖤
I love all of y'all's evolution videos.
Definitely enjoyed this video. I'd love to see more like this.
One of the best videos yet! Keep up the phenomenal work!!
Thanks Tanooki! We'll try our best :) ~Darryl
Amazing compilation, analysis, adn recap! Top notch historian work here my man.
I'm 3 years late to the party on this video but I feel it was very excellently done and I enjoyed every minute of it thank you
Love the hymn of the faith in the background as well as the others, gotta love final fantasy !
plz do more of these! I love summons! there the reason ive gotten into ff
Amazing video. I've always thought Bahamut was one of the best of the summons throughout the FF realm. Thanks for casting light on him.
Dude, your data research capacity is always admirably crazy good! And yes please do this evolution video fore at least the major/main summons that appeared on every title in FF franchise. In particular, I am curious about what makes Quezacoatl (or what I usually called Ramuh's blanket snake,) replace Ramuh in ONLY FF8, and never to be heard of anymore (or is it? sometimes your data proof me wrong... LOL.) Anyway thanks for the knowledge, and please keep up the great work.
Great video! I love that you use the artwork from cards in MobiusFF, the only mobile game I'll always miss!
Thank you for this video, that was fun.
Awesome video thanks for all the hard work
Ah Yess my favorite summon
I really loved this video!!! It would be really great if you could do videos on all the popular summons.
bahamut in FF8 was always my favorite... his intro thru the clouds never fails to make me happy and excited...
This was dope, thank you.
I remember my friend introducing me to final fantasy when I was young and the one thing that stuck with me was the bahamut summon that shot a beam from space. Badass
You missed something super important about FFXIV Bahamut. He's the darkness summon rather than the usual un-aspected.
Well, FFXIV is slightly different. That game has elements and light/dark aspect (which are not elements). Most FF games have Bahamut be non-elemental, and in FFXIV if Demi-Bahamut is anything to go by Bahamut is the same. However, we also know that Bahamut is dark-aspected.
Another great video! Love Bahamut in every game he's in, always used him the most in FF10 lol
Yesssss! Do one on Ifrit next!
Cant wait for GBF Re:link Proto and Ultimate Bahamut raid.
One of the best Evolution videos yet.
PLEASE do more this was really cool.
I appreciate you so much 🙏🏻❤
Best Final Fantasy Channel 🙌
I've learned so much and I thought I knew everything Final Fantasy 😆🔮
Loved this video. Really informative and easy to follow and understand.
I always enjoy both of your content it’s really fun and I love final fantasy
I Enjoyed That Very Much...
Thank You Both (or ALL if more were involved) For Making This Video!!!
Bahamut From FFX Was My 1st Introduction To Power!!! Lol! And Watching The Vid Helped Me Learn More About That Lovable Behemoth!!! 🤗😆😊😌😎
Love this video. Good job guys. Next I hope its either Leviathan or Ifrit
Just wanted to drop a comment and say i enjoyed the video and would love to see more evolution videos about the summons of the series.
Love it. More summons please
I like to see Bahamut as a huge dragon again on FF16 not a huge knight in dragon armor.
Yeah if ain't broke don't fix it, dragons are badass in any medium or genre.
It probably will be. Seeing as the names of the mothercrystals share the dragon theme you can assume that they all might come together to form Bahamut. Unless they wanna be different and use Midgardsormr which I would be equally fine with.
Given that much of FFXVI’s team worked on FFXIV, it’s safe to assume that Bahamut will at least be a huge dragon in that game.
@@NN010 Yeah I figure as much.
Awesome video. Bahamut’s iterations in FFRK are some of the more interesting ones. In World of Final Fantasy, the name Bahamut is attributed to Brandelis and Tiababylo, themselves coming from a world of Bahamuts
This was a fun and interesting watch. Being a huge fan of FF, it's nice to see all the bahamuts lined up and explored, especially since I'm an avid d&d player as well
All these badass interpretations of Bahamut and then FF14 comes along and gives him tiny T-rex arms
I love XV Bahamut
Awesome stuff! Evolution of the almost always benevolent Shiva next please!! ^^
yes i think u should do more evolutions on summons :) , i enjoy these videos
Great in depth look @ this Summon / Esper / Eidolon / Aeon, for me it will always be his iteration in Final Fantasy 4 where his Megaflare was 1 of the best attacks in the game! :)
That was Great
Hes Always Been My Fav
With DoomTrain as My 2nd
Followed By Titan
Bahamut also plays a significant role in the first season of Brave Exvius' story; serving as the penultimate summon one can learn up to that point in the game. Emphasis is also placed on his location as he has his own special island to explore and find him. There is even a quest to collect a bunch of rat tails.
Loved the episode ❤️❤️
Thanks for an in depth look at the most awesome summon EVER. If it's possible, I 'd love a history of Knights of the Round from FFVII. Thanks again. Love your work =)
