The caption of a screen during a session of Final Fantasy XI, depicting the superboss Absolute Virtue's use of the Two-hour ability Benediction. After a 30-hour-long marathon in March 2006, in which a party managed to bring the boss down to 51% HP for the first time ever in the game's history, the monster then proceeded to use the ability and go back to 99% HP. The party eventually gave up.

Artwork by Tetsuya Nomura depicting the main characters of the cast of Final Fantasy X-2. Appearing clockwise: Nooj, Paine, Lenne, Shuyin and Rikku, with Yuna occupying the centre. For the sequel, both Yuna and Rikku, the only characters appearing in Final Fantasy X, were given a completely new design. This decision was highly controverted and remains one of the most common causes of division between fans and disparagers of X-2.

PSP sprites of Emperor Mateus, ruler of the kingdom of Palamecia in Final Fantasy II. Though meeting defeat at the hands of Firion and his friends, Mateus spurns death and absorbs the powers of the afterlife to be crowned the Emperor of Hell in the main storyline and the Emperor of Heaven in Soul of Rebirth. The Emperor's split is also emulated in the dungeons leading up to each respective final battle. The depths of Jade Passage and Pandaemonium are traversed to reach Mateus' demonic form, while their respective mirror images Raqia and Arubboth are the stairways to his seraphic throne.

CG render of Terra Branford as featured in Dissidia Final Fantasy. For the first time in the series' history, a computer-generated 3D render image and its associated animation models were made for every main character of each of the currently released main entries. The renders were modeled primarily after the original artwork of the character depicted, whether a work by Yoshitaka Amano or Tetsuya Nomura, instead of his of her in-game sprite or model.

Artwork by Akihiko Yoshida of four central characters in the story of Final Fantasy Tactics. The world of Ivalice during the Tactics era is one of great upheaval; and the two main protagonists, Ramza Beoulve and Delita Heiral, each have their own ideas in dealing with the Lucavi threat. Delita sees the higher echelons as his own keys to peace, involving Princess Ovelia Atkascha in his schemes. Ramza, meanwhile, keeps the safety of his sister, Alma Beoulve, in priority. During the storyline, their paths weave back and forth, the actions of each hero helping to determine the fate of the other.

Screenshot in Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings of the Galbana's approach to the Purvama of Lemurés, the airborne, archipelago home of the Aegyl. The closest island with two skystone fronds is Zephyr, the Windward Isles; Tormelados, Isle of the Megalith, lies to the left, the Muruc Cashuac Skysea cascades water endlessly from the sky just behind Zephyr, and the looming spires of Arda, Heaven's Pillar are seen faintly in the distance. The quality of this in-game video is impressively close to a similar artwork, capturing many details of the Aegyl cities etched out on the rock as well as the unending azure of the sky.

Artwork by Yoshitaka Amano depicting Chaos, the original Final Fantasy's final boss. Chaos would not make another appearance under this guise until the release of Dissidia Final Fantasy, in which, opposed to the goddess Cosmos, he would reprise his role as the final villain of the game.

Artwork by Akira Oguro depicting the conflict between Kain Highwind and the dark incarnation of himself, a major plot point of Final Fantasy IV: The After Years. The After Years was the first direct sequel to a Final Fantasy game since Final Fantasy X-2 and the first to feature the whole cast of the prequel game as playable characters.

Artwork by Akihiko Yoshida depicting a Crystal in Final Fantasy III. Elemental crystals were powerful symbols in the Final Fantasy series' early years, and Crystal Rooms such as this one appeared in all first five installments except Final Fantasy II. Sanctified places, Crystal Rooms are often secluded away in dungeons and showcase their own musical theme: the Prelude, a melody which has since become an icon within the series.

This Week's Featured Image
CG render of the airship Highwind and Aeris Gainsborough from Final Fantasy VII. This render was released before the game's debut and was featured on one of the inside covers of the CD case. This image was a source of great speculation among fans, as it depicts Aeris clearly waiting for the Highwind to dock, but she is no longer a playable character when the airship is first available for flight. It could also be seen as symbolic of Cloud's promise to take Aeris aboard the airship one day.

Artwork by Akihiko Yoshida depicting Luso Clemens, the main character of Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift, opening the Grimoire of the Rift, which transports him to the region of Jylland. A Grimoire is a powerful tome of knowledge or magick, and the one held by Luso proved to be the key to return to his own world after completing many tasks in the land of Ivalice.
