@takeitorleaveit7 Storywise, because he was a Black Mage, and they all died before too long.
From a design perspective, because the death of a character usually makes he or she more memorable, not that this particular character needed it to be awesome.
It's not said outright (I think) that Vivi dies, but it's strongly implied, and it's generally believed that the narrative during the ending is his words.
Hey guys, i wanna ask a question...does all these black waltz and other villains in FF9 are the armies of Kuja? or Necron himself? Would be very appreciate it if anyone can answer ;D FF9 is one of the BEST series of Final Fantasy worldwide!
Vivi is epic he is one of the most strongest people in the game because he was the one who overcame his fear in the end It's so weird I didn't think much of this scene when I was little in fact it was not until recntly did I actually watch it and SEE the black mages Everyone says that Three scared them as a child but when I was little it was TWO who scared me like when he casted spells - the game froze for like ten minutes on that spot when me and my brother were playing and it freaked me out
Ahhh, Black Waltz #3...you will always be the best FF villain in my eyes! Also, these cutscenes are my favorites. Out of all the FFs, these couple sequences are the ones I love the most. <3 MAGE FIGHT HELLS YEAH!!!
What a piece of emotional scene. Don't even need words as the emotions are already conveyed through. The music...darn, that Nobuo-san...he knows how to make a guy feel teary for a character. Kudos for the upload.
I really enjoyed FFXII, but it did seem to lack something the other FF games delivered.
One thing I don't like is how making the main character the comic relief is becoming rather frequent, there's a reason so many people liked cloud and squall. Zidane can be a jokester but he's still got a pretty serious attitude, not including Dissidia...
Things certainly did change. Some of them had interesting ideas like X-2's non linear plotline but they were not very well executed and are only a shadow of what the series used to be like.
@TheJorus wait aeriths death was supposed to be touching 0.o I just thought it was god taking pity upon the gamers and getting rid of that worthless bitch
If youd played the game and bothered to pay attention you'd know why they appear as emotionless puppets. Such is the source of Vivi's distress at this point in the game.
WTF those little wizard guys are being thrown off the ship .....they don't even fight back they just accept their death and the ones falling from those barrels don't even react to falling
I exist only to kill I exist only to kill I exist only to kill I exist only to kill I exist only to kill I exist only to kill I exist only to kill I exist only to kill I exist only to kill I exist only to kill I exist only to kill I exist only to kill I exist only to kill I exist only to kill I exist only to kill I exist only to kill

Here are some reasons Black Waltz #3 is my favorite minor villain ever:
He looks totally badass.
0:30 The very first thing he does causes an instant heartbreak.
His famous quote: "I exist only to kill! I exist only to kill! I exist only to kill! I exist only to kill...!"
2:26 Best "OH SHIT" face ever. And he only has eyes.
He got smashed by the gate and and didn't die.
