*giggle*ROTFLMAOLOLOOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO

*fart*

I'm just wondering if it's the same all throughout cuz I just got to the first battle saving Rei or whatever but I didn't have the controlls down so I was annihilated... Anyway I wanna know if I should still pursue this game on PSX or if I'll be sufficiantly spoiled. Also had to ROTFL though ;-p

It's the same story but the anime got canceled in the middle of it. So you can only really see the ending if you play the game.

I don't know what you mean in the first post, but what he said *points*

The anime goes halfway through the game - it ends right where the first disc of the game ends.

It follows just about the same plotline, changing a couple of minor things, leaving a couple of things out, and adding some other minor things. But since the plot is pretty simple to begin with, yeah, it's more or less the same.

And it's "Rena."

If you watch more than one ep you'll have that drilled into your head. "Claude!" "Rena!" "Claude!!!" "RENA!!!" "CLAUDE!!!!!" "REEEENAAAA!!!!!"

The anime is not great on its own, IMO, but if you like the game it's entertaining enough to follow all the characters (which was one of the game's strong points to begin with). Conversely, if you liked the anime and don't mind "you're the hero, now go over there and stop the bad guy" plots in RPGs, I do recommend the game. One of my favorites, obviously. 8)

I doubt it. It'd take oh cripes, like ten replayings of the game, unless you restore a save from somewhere in the middle and screw around with affection ratings like crazy. The Ernest/Opera/Ashton and Bowman/Precis choices are enough of a roadblock to make me doubt that anyone's tried to get ALL of them.

the problem is, things that happen even in random battles affects the end a very small bit...it might not even be physically possible to get every ending if thats true --;
