The Evolution of Final Fantasy [20] Ultima Weapon

Part 20 in a series that takes a look at the history of one of the greatest gaming franchises of all time, chronicling the many recurring themes, characters and monsters that have appeared over the years. This entry focuses on one of the badass monsters that likes to eat endgame bosses for breakfast, Ultima Weapon. Enjoy!

Notes regarding this video (please read before commenting!):

- For the entire series, I have simply gathered video footage from various sources on YouTube and compiled them together. I've done this only to entertain the many fans of Final Fantasy here on YouTube, so with that said, many thanks to all the folks who took the time to record the game footage.

- Again, for the whole series, I've focused solely on the main games. Remakes and updates of those games are featured, but I've opted to skip games like Tactics, FFX-2 and such. I had to draw the line somewhere to keep a reasonable length.

- Ultima Weapon has had a few different names during the course of the series, including Atma Weapon, Ultimate Weapon and simply Ultima. Regardless of being a 'weapon' or not, if it was a character named Ultima, it counts for me.

- There is also a Proto-Ultima monster in FFXI, a color swap of the regular boss. I chose to leave him out of the video.

@gnryeah He wasn't showing the weapons. He was showing the monsters named "Ultima Weapon". Lol.

Eheh, missed Ultima weapon from FFI, and FFIX... but I don't fault you for not showing those, they're a bitch to get, particularly IX, which takes ages to get.
