We put it to the public, and after thousands of votes, you all decided that Squall Leonhart should be the subject of our next Origins video, which means we're diving into some Final Fantasy 8 Lore!
Although Squall's story only takes place within one game, it's still a rather detailed affair. We're therefore going to run-through his early development and relationships with characters like Seifer, Ellone, Zell, Quistis, Selphie and Irvine, as well as the relationship he forms with Rinoa as things progress.
We hope you enjoy! Be sure to let us know which character you'd like us to focus on next!

Thanks for your patience guys! Somehow this ended up being our biggest Origins video to date and it therefore took a bit longer than expected, hopefully you guys enjoy! Be sure to let us know who you want us to work on next ~Darryl/Lauren
I love squall.. he wasn't some science project like Cloud or Zidane.. he was just some emo teen with a hard life that fell in love
I really identify with Squall's fear of losing people and his counter-productive idea that you cant lose anyone if you don't have anyone
If any of the Final Fantasies deserved a movie, this one deserves it the most.
Squall is my all time favorite character and my childhood hero. He gave me a lot of strength to get through some terrible times, and still does.
I understand that the GF memory loss is an actual story element, but I’ve always thought that thematically it’s an allegory for how common it is to suppress memories as a coping mechanism for childhood trauma.
Was I the only person to envision Cid played by Robin Williams?
Squall is my fav FF protagonist. He's the coolest one. *Seifer's fav actor is actually Laguna
Squall was the whole reason I kept with the franchise. FFVIII was story-telling at it's best, and is what got me into writing stories and working on a novel/book today. You can say, it was the key to pushing me in the right direction. This video is beyond perfection! Thank you for creating it!
FFVIII has such a different vibe than the other games which I really like but understand why others don’t.
Squall has always and forever will be my favorite character. Much of how he thinks does reflect my own way of thinking and I found him easily relatable. Thank you for the video.

Thank you for this. I hate it when people talk crap about squall withought any facts or reason. He is my favorite Final Fantasy protagonist. I wish they will remake FF8 after FF7 just so i can play as squall in HD.
OH SHIT IM JUS REALISING THIS!!!! Irvive choked during the mission because he was the only one to remember edea as the women that raised him. Idk if u bring it up later. I paused at
FF8 is my whole childhood and Squall is my favourite character. I have the Griever tattooed on my back :) ❤️
Squall is such an underrated protagonist. He went through so much trauma and he didn’t want to become a leader, but did eventually take the responsibility when he realized just how much people needed him and that his life was worth more than he realized.
As I was 15 when I played FF8 I could relate so well to Squall and his internal conflicts and struggles as a teenage boy who’s family wasn’t around and felt like I had to take care of myself without anyone’s help. He broke me out of my shell and I’m a better person thanks to FF8. It will always be in my top 3 FF games!
Also feel like you should have mention, that if you challenge Laguna to a Triple Triad, He mentions he has his son's card. And that would be Squalls card.
Final Fantasy VIII my first FF and Squall is still one of my favorite characters of the franchise. I really enjoyed this video, it made me want to play this amazing game again :)
Squall has always been one of my favorite characters. And sometimes I seriously wish I could see the GF idea explored further. A creature that eats memories in exchange for power is platinum story material.
