Final Fantasy VIII.................. spoilers, obviously.

1. So Irvine remembers growing up with everyone right? So when they met, wouldn't he be like HEY SQUALL WHAT'S UP?! Wouldn't he mention it at some point... like when he was supposed to kill his adoptive mother? I know Squall and the others didn't remember, but it's not like Irvine would have known that immediately. He would have brought it up, and they'd be all like "wtf".

2. Wait... so they have no idea where they grew up or anything about the first 5-10 years of their lives? Isn't that something that they'd be curious about? Can't they like ask around? Shouldn't the Garden have that information on file, considering they grew up with the headmaster?

3. This weird gardenmaster guy (norg?) had enough support to wage a war in the Garden. And yet, nobody seems to particularly concerned when you kill him.

4. Why is it that Irvine is assigned to kill Ultimecia? Wouldn't it make a bit more sense for the military organization to send someone more experienced?

5. Gunblades. Not exactly a plothole, but it sounds like something a second grader would come up with. Even if the vibration somehow made the blade more impactful, having a pistol grip would be unnecessary and impractical.

Just some thoughts.

1. They went to the Garden's when they were like 6-8, there is a chance they wouldn't recognise each other, or at least Irvine wouldn't be sure.

2. I got no answer to that one, however I do remember basic maths yet I don't need records to tell me I went to school once.

3. It was faculty vs SeeD/students, no Norg, Faculty didn't fight.

4. SeeD is there to protect against Sorceress, Irvine at that point wasn't stopping Ulimecia, just Edea. Who was basically taking over, a military leader was helping with a covert operation.

5. no idea



Hmm, pie.
