What !? You played Terranigma and not Chrono Trigger .
CT is one of the greatest JRPG, IMO.
1.Yes, at least one for each characters ( I mean sub-quest, not secret bosses )
2. around 25 hours but what is geat about it is that has great replaybility thanks to "Game+" and 13 endings
3.Yes
4.Was FF6 challenging ? or Terraigma challenging ?
5.Not randm encounter in CT 
6. Good looking spells in CT, and awesome "combo tech"
7. Simple but great like Teranigma.
8. In the overwoeld map there isn't enemy random encounter, it is just a simple 2d map ( good looking too ).
Play it !
