    Storyline

    • Trivia
      This is a remake of the original game, Final Fantasy IV (1991).
    • Goofs
      When Cecil and his allies Rosa, Rydia, Kain, Edge come with him on the Whale spaceship and fly to the moon, they can pilot it until they land it. But when they exit outside, they walk around without their spacesuits. This would cause them to die including Fusoya and Golbez, because first of all, there's no life on the moon including trees or water. Second, they would freeze to death or burn to death by the sun due to extreme heat and cold temperatures caused by the sun or no sun. Also gravity on the moon is different than Earth and they would bounce lightly and float on the moon. If they were provided spacesuits with oxygen tanks, then they would be able to survive on the moons surface but would have limited time to explore and fight before returning on the spaceship. However, their spacesuits would make them more vulnerable to monster attacks and it would be slightly harder to use weapons due to the moons lighter gravity.
    • Quotes

      Soldiers: [the opening shows Cecils character profile then the video continues on] Lord Captain! We're nearly to the Baron Border!

      Cecil Harvey: So we are.

      Soldiers: It troubles him too.

      Cecil Harvey: Orders may be orders, But this? This goes too far.

      [a flashback of Cecil and his soldiers invading Mysidia attacking the black mage and white mage and the elder before Cecil steals the water crystal. Then Cecil gets back to reality]

      Soldiers: Lord Captain! We are the Red Wings! The Pride of Baron! Must we now be thieves, sent to plunder from the weak?

      Cecil Harvey: Enough.

      Soldiers: But Lord Captain? The Mysidians offered no resistance! And still we cut them down.

      Cecil Harvey: Listen to me! We did no more than what are kingdom's peace and prosperity required us to do. The Mysidians knew too much of the Crystal and its secrets. His Majesty deemed it so. We are the Red Wings of Baron! It is not our place to question the orders of our King.

      Soldiers: Lord Captain... Lord Captain! Monsters at the fore!

      [Then the Floateye monster attacks the airship and Cecil enters in a turn based battle]
