Final Fantasy VIII - Ending - Rinoa & Squall

[PokemonFantasyGirl]

Beautiful.. This game deserves a movie just like FF7! Or at least a remake.

[EmeraldYuna123]

squall's smile is beautiful <3

[GrimJackal]

Quite possibly the single greatest ending in video game history.

[therunes100]

i accidentally got a cut just like squalls a few months ago, but it wasnt so serious and it went away lol

[MatrixAyoub]

Has anyone ever noticed that Griever's symbol is on the moon? :D

[basisti94]

Squall is an interesting Final Fantasy character. First he seems kinda dull but there is so much hidden in him that comes out during the game

[Niqsta1988]

You know everything in that game was worth it just by that last scene!

[nickohen]

HOLLY SHIT!

HOLLY CRAAP!

I thought squall was dead!!!!

i had never seen this beforee!!!!

they actually kiss!!!!!! OMGGGGGG!!!!!!!1

[CyberKairu24]

looks like they was kissing and squall dont seem like da time that would kiss a girl

[PoncifyingSince1995]

Good God Squall is hot!

[FFXforeverr]

He's just so cute when he smiles.

[volvariella]

I don't like Squall but I do like this scene....

[Ian2forget]

Dammit, im a guy. This shouldn't touch my heart! But it really does.

and btw

Isn't that the place where Quisitis was like all over Squall?

[volvariella]

@Ian2forget

No. They're on a small balcony in front of the party hall while the one you mentioned is well in front of T-Rex lair.... and more spacious to accommodate a few couples.

[Ian2forget]

@volvariella Oh no I know they are not in the one in front of the training center. I mean the balcony where Quistis first tells him to go there.

[FinalFantasySys]

@Ian2forget Yes, is the same one, it seems. Compare this video at 0:52 versus the " Final Fantasy VIII [HQ] - FMV Part 9 "Squall Dancing with Rinoa" " one of @BalambSqually at 3:59 , at that moment Balamb Garden was still at the island, not flying.

[ziphartstar]

im just starting too cry of this scene everytime, they are ment too be..... :') 

[DonkeyKongChick]

I wish this game was made into a movie so bad! Best RPG ever. I love the story line!

[ziphartstar]

Awwwwwwh ! I love the music! and specially at 0:44

THEY ARE SOOO CUTE ! I WILL NEVER GET BORED OF THIS SCENE !

[SessyxXXx]

oh my god such a cute smile squall has XD

[Gawy68]

0:39 wonderful Crescendo

[Revcharge]

somebody PLEASE just make at least one movie or OVA of this game. it's beginning to be overlooked.

[junshin91]

it definately needs to be a movie or a remake for ps3

[CowboyOlli]

Imagine this entire ending sequence with Seifer instead of Rinoa.

1. Awesome.

2. Freakin' hilarious.

[jamesbrain1]

7 & 8 i think are best games ever i realy became him

[maniaticbleach]

First Final Fantasy to actually show two main characters kissing. I wish Tifa and Cloud have done it on 7, but I'm glad at least they showed it on this game. I love Final Fantasy series!

[marlonful]

Probably one of the best ends from ff series,they love seem to beat even of tidus and yuna(ffx)

[itsacoolname]

0:44 THIS. OH MY GOD. his smile is so adorable.

[alexiscortez]

i have squallleonhart 4 my password. And i also have ff8fan8790 on my nintendo ds and my personal message was squall and rinoa 4EVA!!! but i changed it 2 "FF love couples 4EVA!!!"

[fallOutbOOm]

sorry ff13,14 and so on, you're NO match against this one. :)

[lightningcharizard]

i cant imagine a final fantasy better than this one

[lilmissfarah]

@lightningcharizard

i can, its called VII ;)

[lightningcharizard]

@lilmissfarah nah VII was kind of tame

[AuraRinoa]

Che bei ricordi... tanti sogni, un periodo della mia vita che non dimenticherò :)

[animelover13579]

@AuraRinoa d'acccordo

[FinalFantasySys]

On my case, there was the 1st CD, on Dollet attack, the video appears but never continues. I had changed the disc 1 on the shop where I had bought the game, and there were no further problems. It's not dual layered cause, I think perhaps the original CD case could have a problem

[SevRyan]

Just listen to the music and remember the times in the 1990's . Thisp art made me remember my life as a child

Very relaxing indeed.

[SidViciousQueen]

linegenrou: I agree with you! ^^

MY Squall has beautiful eyes...

[linegenrou]

Squall has beautiful eyes.

[Duckie1811]

Wow, this is so romantic. I love it XD

[darkmirage0]

Eh... Squall had a better ending than Cloud.

[SeiraXCairi]

you think!? i think both had a good ending, cloud found back his light* XD and squall kissed the girl he loved

[JDffguy]

this ends the rumors he died...... i lost my disk 3 so i never saw

[wingtok]

Oscar worthy

[Somebodylost]

(^_^) THANKS for uploading. Merci.

[carloutshe13]

C'est tellement beau que j'en pleure

[Kaname441]

Wow, this track sounds exactly like Bittersweet Romance from ff9 especially a 0:32

[CielPhantomhive1]

I have NEVER seen him smile before....

[blink182chase13]

I know really...he can smile??? lol

[ziphartstar]

@blink182chase13 yeah, Rinoa makes him smile.... :') 

[booJ13]

same here. TOTALLY need a remake of this for psp. i lose my ps1 DD:

[Ian2forget]

all im asking is for a remake. or let it out on psp. SOMETHING! i lost my PS1 game.

[LionheartAlacod]

beautiful ending first kiss i saw in all FF except x

well before they made it

they presented a fabulous ending.

[princedeezay]

I remember how glad I was when he survived. Someday I'm going to buy the rights to this story and continue it.

[mapleleaf80649]

squall looks like he is old

[darqetsu]

I've never seen this before. I guess it takes place after the credits.

[linegenrou]

the music is fantastic.

[xxxnea93]

I love this scene! It's so romantic and it's great to see Squall smiling. This is a wonderful game and the ending is magical=)

[Seifer007]

amen ;)

[spaztik420]

How romantic... *sigh*

[Nightmareslip13]

I just beat the game. (FF8 is my fav) The ending was so cool i had to watch it again. The scene b4 the credits is cool too

[GuitarGirl1718]

I love squall's smile.

[benhoward1]

i love squall period

[linegenrou]

Don't we all?

[benhoward1]

I don't know all i know is i love him and he's amazing.

[linegenrou]

I know,I'm in love with a videogame character

[benhoward1]

But a video game character with an amazing scar and a gunblade.

[VioletMoonFire]

Like the only time he smiles.

[xXPigpriestXx]

what??? ive never seen this part of ending,

best game ever

[Donalob]

Greatest game I will ever play.

[samerlust8]

best love history ever ! i love them ! ( zell,quistis,selphie and irvine too)

from spain

[iL0VEu427XTiNA]

they should have zoomed up the kiss :)

[oekakinin]

I had to go through 4 discs to see Squall smile!

[TheBoogerHumper]

Thats fucking amazing. My facial hair is even standing up. Christ me.

[tanarocks]

best game ever!!!

[Barlinetrio]

@tanarocks yeah..!!! 

[metaljorgo]

so laguna is squall´s papa?

[bohdave]

Yes.

[GhostSymphony]

best. ending. ever.

[eava123]

Why does she always point?

[ohhhla]

Cuz of the shooting star just like when she did at the dance room. Cuz it's a wish of some sort.

[eava123]

Oh, okay, that makes sence.

[Ian0723]

Squall isn't her brother because Raine adopted her. They are not related. And yes, Rinoa is Julia's daughter through caraway

[bishounenlover17]

Really? Raine adopted Squall? Oh, I thought Squall is Raine's biological son with her husband Laguna. And that she died after giving birth to Squall.

[Ian0723]

Raine adopted ELLONE. "Squall isn't her brother because Raine adopted HER." Squall is Raine's biological son.

[wingtok]

I think it was great story telling by the creator, the classic tale of two people meeting, falling for eachother, but due to one going to war they couldn't be together, but each of their children finally met, and although unlikley, fell in love with eachother other through involvement in their own war against what caused the separation of their generation before them.

[NuttDog117]

Why did they have to zoom out of the kiss? You hardly get to see Squall so affectionate or even just a smile off him. Oh well at least we know what happened.

[eava123]

I guess because they want us to always think of him as tough. But hes so but when he smiles! Very rare we see him smiling.

[GhostSymphony]

I so agree! I hoped to see it close up or something.

[08jnope]

has anyone already heard this

Laguna is accually Squalls father (making Raine his mother) its true there are soo many times that is suggested its not funny but i thin k the diggest one is where the moomba tastes squalls blood and thinks it Laguna

[08jnope]

That said people are accualty thinking Rinoa and squall are Bro and sis soo no true it pisses me off they arent bro and sis no way possible laguna was capture by the esther guys when both rinao and squall where born.

[Ian0723]

Umm, yeah. It's pretty much accepted that Laguna is Squall's father. And they're not related even though Laguna did date Julia for a while before leaving...

[08jnope]

its not possible for them to be brother and sister i mean they are the same age and he was married to raine

[Ian0723]

Yes, I KNOW they're not brother and sister. I didn't say they were. Also, the same age thing isn't relevant considering the fact that there is no gestation period for males.

[joriscel]

final fantasy 8 really likes zooming things out!

[DjLiet]

Thank you for the awesome vid! <3 Totaly love ff8! And this last FMV was catharsis!

[EvAMYabs27]

howd u get this fuckin awesome quality??

it wasnt this good even in the game!!

[Badawnkadonk69]

Lmao true that

[amisieudinh]

:(( I 'm so thankful ^^" I have been looking for this song ^^" Now I found it :D

[jokimiko10101]

aw wait. that was it? they should've zoomed in the kiss or something lol.

[EvAMYabs27]

yeah! but they zoomed it out!!!

oh maybe squall was shy :D

[jokimiko10101]

weee, i feel all warm and fuzzy whenever i think about rinoa and squall's love story thingy. XD

--

i honestly dunno what final fantasy was all about---it's a game all right but it's like a movie too with all these plots and stories and i dunno how that works..lol.. i haven't played for so long...

[dudewatda3]

took me 1 year to finish this game XD!

[SimonMOak]

how the heck did that happen?

[dudewatda3]

oh it becuase i got stuck on this level and i just gave up XD and i didnt play it for like 2-3months then i started playing it again. thats why it took me soo long and plus it took me awhile cuz all i pretty much did is play the card games. :P

[Returacan]

what is up with the glowing disk thingymabob...its like every garden has one..whats it for??

[EvAMYabs27]

oh man i dont think somebody knows about that.. even the one who designed the garden.. maybe its just a design

[siggilumdiaboli69]

Squall has such a beautiful smile.

And it's all because of her.

[DreamMasquerade]

squall's smile is sooo beautiful! I want to make a plushy!

[holyXseven]

O.o Squall is Smiling ..

[danaya2004]

i wish theres a close up pic of them kissing.^^

[kotortheone]

trop beau gg a toi! i love it OO'

[feNiLaLaNiNaAaA]

bueatiful....argggg *__*

[Pixylchaz]

+_+ It would be so cool if they made a FF8 movie like they did with FF7...

[jefterx2008]

muito massa esse video a

primeria vez que vejo

o squall sorrindo

[randomstuff149]

okay, thats it. ive decided, i NEED to get these games! I know almost nothing about them, but they look like the best games ever! this scene is so cute!

[thefantasyraider]

u go for it it will change the course of your life like,FOREVER :D it has changed mine ^^

[imjoe18]

Final fantasy 8 needs a sequel so AWESOME

anyone agree!>?

[Lizzieieio]

most amazing ending of a game. ever.

i love ff8.

[FainaruFantajiTenTsu]

lol, long time since i didn't see this;)

[CaptTapSumBong]

its games like these that i wish had a sequel....and not a crappy one like ff 10-2

[bebefofa]

*wish x)

[bebefofa]

squall smiled when he danced with rinoa ..

this wasn't the first time xD

I love them!! perfect couple <3

I was they were real :$ xD

[Ibanezandtrivium]

Once Ultimecia is defeated there really is no need for Balamb Garden except a place to live/hang out, since SeeD is built around destroying evil sorceresses

[ShiliaUchiha2]

thats a side of squall you rarely see XD

[lilaznpunk123]

i cried wen this ahppened

[cherylclaire]

aaaaaaaw,kawaaii ♥♥ =D

all their games are soooo great!! Why not making them into movies like Final Fantasy Advent Children?

I'm sure that they'll be just as amazing! xDD

[cshaftrun1121]

if they do i wanna play rinow :)

[Nikkimomo]

yay! pc graphic! not play station.

they suck! lol

[ChibiCandi]

i find it so hard to watch the ending.. I refused to finish it because I just didn't want it to end.

[ProEdit7x]

I edited the game a little bit so that Ifrit was the PC and Squall was the GF.

Sorta boring I thought, Liked it better when Squall was the main character, plus it only works for when he's in a fight. I'm gonna put up a vid on youtube about it though lol.

[Takeristhebest]

Ive noticed that all the FF games The End title cards are symbolic of that games characters

[lostOTL]

i think the people who made all of these final fantasy game they should make it into movies

[rockinbunny2415]

the cute thing about this (besides the fact the SQUALL KISSED RINOA-SQUEAL!!!!!!) is the fact that this was the ONLY time Squall smiled in the WHOLE game. has anyone noticed that?

i wish they made a movie on this. (FF X too, but you see, they have VOICE ACTORS.)

[dkblade27]

yeah thats why it made this such a beautiful ending. squall finally shows his happiness emotions. this is the first time he ever smiled in the game.

[rockinbunny2415]

I love that character change. It's something riveting for me. He also has quite a cute smile. It's not surprising, but for someone who hasn't smiled in forever, it's nice to see that on him. Such a contrast. HUGE contrast.

I'm glad he's finally happy. All he needed was a bit of love to keep him going. I'm glad that his hurt was cushioned; it must've really hurt to keep to yourself like that.

[dkblade27]

yeah i agree. all he needed was that feeling of being wanted and loved to change his solitude chararcter. i can relate because i basically went through something similar but that feeling of love faded away eventually.

[rockinbunny2415]

I call that a "Story Boom and Bust Cycle". Funny I'm relating that to economics, but the only thing I learned from it is this: the economic system goes up and down, depending on the environment. Like a story, it builds up until the climax, the the denouement. Then it starts all over again. Usually, they stop at the ending, freezing it in the happy ending. It freezes, so we ultimately think that stories last everlastingly in a happy ending.

[rockinbunny2415]

And don't worry, I'm sure that love of that extensiveness will pass your way. ^^ :)

[jaxzz]

you went through 70+ hours of gameplay and angst ridden dispair as a videogame character?? awesome

[dkblade27]

what are you talking about???

[Dangoss11]

I beat the game but their is one thing i still cant figure out....That damn painting puzzle in Ultimecia castle.

[InuyashaGirl7291]

Gah!!! You can't see them kissing!! D=

[emi18]

So romantic & passionately sweet!! I absolutely feel that Rinoa is the only one who made Squall smile.

[KiraXLacus241]

oooh! Squall's Cuter wen he smILes (0:42)

[dimdimfr]

The quality is really good in this vid! O.o

[ceiame]

i wish they focused the scene when they kissed!♥

[dkblade27]

yeah if only they focused on the kissing scene and made it dramatic and loving, it would be so much better.

[Ian0723]

That's because emphasis was put on his smile

[BoAKwon140]

That was uber KAWAII!!!♥♥ SO ADORABLE‼

[qwankyo]

this would make a great sequel don't ask me how?

[dragonkurt1]

If only they like combined all the final fantasy games :( and Cloud could see Zack and Arith againg :)

[hailz86xx]

i was confused if he died or not as i neva had chance to finsh the game im gna now though :D defo

[holyXseven]

YEAH , me too!! i'm still stuck in the castle!

[Annirockstarr]
