Relationships

  • Winona/Edgar: It's only natural that CHIIIIIIIIICKS Sr. and CHIIIIIIIIICKS Jr. are screwing. They are fooling exactly no one, and their abject terror when faced with Twiggy and her magic vagina is pretty telling.
  • Guile/Kyan: Isn't it marvelously convenient that everyone in Kyan's life, including his loving wife and son, die at the exact moment Guile shows up to sweep him off his feet? Their love is so muscly.

Tropes

  • The Asylum King: Kefka is basically the Joker in an uglier outfit. And yet, even with his wacky villain antics, he is far from the goofiest character in this game.
  • CHIIIIIIIIICKS: Edgar, and to a lesser extent his boyfriend Locke. The former can't stop going on about what a ladies' man he is and how much he loves beauuuuuuuuuuutiful woooooomen. The latter has a crippling male hero complex that causes him to come to the rescue of women who want neither his help nor his attention.
  • Mary Sue: Twiggy and Celes are two Mary Sues of the same Mysterious and Powerful flavor.

Misc. Notes

  • No one in this game has a lot of control over their emotions. Even from the stoic or mopey characters like Twiggy, there's a lot of shrieking, interrobangs, and Don Knotts faces.
