If your frog is strong enough to take on lavos, then Magus is a walk in the park. He basically one shotted everyone up to Magus. When ur level is that high u cant lose.
Frog one. You can hear him get his last slash attack. Then right after you hear the sound when magus dies. Plus at the end with him on top of the castle there is no scythe so you know its frog.
I think it is frog for 2 big reasons 1. First off, Magus has long hair and the wind is blowing very hard in the picture. It is was magus, you could see his hair blowing in the wind to, but the figure at the end has no hair. 2. Look at some art of magus, his cape looks like batmans. The figure at the end has what looks like a normal cloak, just like frog's. anyway, thats just the way i see it.
I think the ending was deliberately left ambiguous and open to interpretation. My own is that Magus won given the last sound effect was a spell, and the sinister theme playing as the figure stands atop the castle. Which also really doesn't seem Frog's style.
Perhaps but how could a level 50 or 60 Frog possibly lose to this Magus? It doesn't make in game sense. In the Lavos battle where you fight a copy of Magus his strongest attacks can't even do 50 damage so with all the healing spells and items Frog has and his superior strength there's a 0% chance of Magus winning. Plus is Magus won he would've summoned Lavos and died so he couldn't be the sillouheted figure either way. It kinda looks like him but I prefer to see it as Frog winning both because that makes sense and him dying after defeating Lavos is sad. :(
The winner is surely Frog. If magus have won the battle, Chrono time would be affected, cause in past Magus defeated guardia if wasn't frog. And as we already know, this ending is reached after chrono team beats lavos. In that time magus wasn't able to even face Lavos in his first form. So the most rational theory is that where frog wins.
@MeingroessterFan that's actually a fair point. Either character is extremely strong, and none of the fight is seen. They both have capes, and to have the kind of idea that either could win sounds dramatic. It's probably designed as an ambiguity.
The only gripe I have about this, how frog talks, he's supposed to use thys and thous, but he's saying things like Gotta go, sounds like a whole different writer scripted him for this ending, still, it's epic besides that.
Thanks for posting. I've fought Lavos immediately after getting masamune and recruiting Frog, but I still get one of the other endings. Frogs an awesome character in my opinion.
Omega666Evil He took a breather, put on a bit of weight, changed his cloak to make it rounder, and shaved his head. I like Magus too, but get real. Frog wins here.
Maybe the sinister theme is played because frog took his revenge and killed magus (not very knightly), while he could forgive him like in the middle of the game?
Looking at it from a distance leads me to believe it's indeed Frog. Magus, as other people have suggested, wouldn't be atop his castle if he had indeed defeated Frog. Plus, if you look at him from a distance in the dark, you can sort of see the outline of his face (it's hard to explain but if you look at it, you can kind of see it and it does kind of look like Frog).
Omega666Evil You’d he survived by what someone can do when they are determined. Like you are determined to hate on frog for no reason and comment on every comment saying he won even when he did win.
True, it would only mkes sense but what I'm saying is that it's quite possible that Frog may have won. However, it's possible that the latter may also be true.
I think its Frog at the top. The silhouette is a bit chubby so it looks like Frog. But it have gone either way. Another thing to consider with Frog winning is that when it shows the character in 1000 AD they are in Lucca's home and everything is fine. Wouldn't that suggest that Frog is the winner? Otherwise, the present would be overrun with monsters. Time travel is always so fun, but also quite a bit frustrating, to theorize about.
BUt If Magus had won, then Lavos would've been Summoned, cuz remember, this is BEFORE the Battle with Lavos! Time travel's confusing though, so you can never tell what's going to happen!
i have a desktop backgroud that has scenes from chrono trigger and it depics this ending almost perfectly except for 2 minor details in this crono sleeps on the floor in the picture he was leaning back in a chair with his legs on the table and marle was on the side of the room crono was in. in this she was on the opposite side of the room. if you want this background feel free to ask!
Thats definitely Glenn standing atop the keep... Look at how small an area the cloak flutters. Signifying a short rounded body aka a frog body aka Glenn. Magus's cloak flutters less rapidly because he is skinny and tall. Frog's, not so much.
When you beat lavos in the prehistoric age before you fight the blacktyranno, everyone becomes reptiles, so why is it so unreasonable to think that it isn't magus up there? I'm sure they could have destroyed the dinosaurs if they could beat lavos. And frog isn't strong enough alone.
Others have mentioned and I'm going to agree with them, there's really no way to tell EXACTLY who won, they both have a cape, they're quite similar in figure, so basically, it could be either one ^_^ Awesome game either way, my favorite RPG!
nope its not either one the winner of the fight is Glenn by simply two reasons 1. when you finish the game that means frog is strong enough to beat magus because you beat lavos who is stronger by far. 2. because he stands on the top of magus castle showing he is the victor an showing magus he is stronger by steping on his castle roof Period
frog won because it totally looks like frog.. frog is smaller and rounder, has a ronder head and a shorter cape also i believe and besides that its pretty logical that frog won and just besides that, this is just absolutely AWESOME!
I still to this day think frog won because think about it he is strong enough to fight lavos and win and we all know how much stronger lavos is compared to magus plus everyone is saying the spell sound is a sign if magus winning but have they forgotten that Frog knows magic too
i believe there is an answer to the repite issue. The original space time continuum intended Chrono to go back IN TIME and do certain stuff. there was no other way around it... which means Chrono was MEANT to go back and help Ayla fight the repites.
It's funny how they named Ozzie after Ozzie Osbourne, Flea after the bassist of the RHCP and Slash as the Guitarist of GnR... Yeah, more pointless info for RUclips to know... :D
you know, chrono and goku remind me of each other, set aside the fact they LOOK like each other.(For those who don't know who goku is, hes the main character of a series called dragon ball z) but who doesn't know goku???
Interesting, that's probably the least favorite to me...but then I never liked Lucca and Marle much, I don't think Marle is that great at dealing damage compared to some of the others. Robo is great at deailng damage and healing from what I've found

In 1000 AD....
Frog: "Yeah let me just solo sweep Magus' army real quick, I'll be back for lunch."
Sadly he doesn't make it out alive.
@@TheAdvertisement the description is wrong.
The last sound of the battle is the sound of the spell and the castle would've collapsed of Frog won.
TheDancerMacabre I don’t think they Castle would have straight up collapsed if Frog won, but yeah it’s Magus who won.
If Magus had won, he would have continued to summon lavos, and probably get himself killed. He would not be standing at the top of his own castle.
You can't tell who wins. The silhouette can be either. That's the beauty of it, you don't know.
That silhouette has a pumpkin shaped head.
@@johnanderson3899 Pumpkinhead victory confirmed.
If your frog is strong enough

Honestly my first impression is that Frog won, but he became the ruler of fiendkind for some reason.
I hate seeing the credits when you are hearing the most epic battle going on
Magus isn't short and stubby, and has a thin head :) I also think it's universally accepted that it's Frog
THE BEST ENDING EVER
Frog is my favorite character and this ending fits his character well imo
Absolutely, they don't make games like this no more
The winner is surely Frog. If magus have won the battle, Chrono time would be affected, cause in past Magus defeated guardia if wasn't frog. And as we already know, this ending is reached after chrono team beats lavos. In that time magus wasn't able to even face Lavos in his first form. So the most rational theory is that where frog wins.
Sorry it was Magus. At that time he was too strong. But no in Crono's time Magus still could have summoned Lavos and died.
This is one of my favorite endings. I liked the fact that they made it ambiguous over whether Frog or Magus won.
themole1983 It's frog
@MeingroessterFan that's actually a fair point. Either character is extremely strong, and none of the fight is seen. They both have capes, and to have the kind of idea that either could win sounds dramatic. It's probably designed as an ambiguity.
Frog won and yes its logical because this is Frogs special ending. Magus has his own ending.
Sorry. Magus fans disagree.
Omega666Evil DUDE FROG WON MAGUS HAS HIS OWN ENDING
they can cope and seethe@@Omega666Evil
The only gripe I have about this, how frog talks, he's supposed to use thys and thous, but he's saying things like Gotta go, sounds like a whole different writer scripted him for this ending, still, it's epic besides that.
thatrandombloak Well he probably quickly adapted to how everyone else talks.
Thanks for posting. I've fought Lavos immediately after getting masamune and recruiting Frog, but I still get one of the other endings. Frogs an awesome character in my opinion.
There's no clear winner. It's SUPPOSED to be ambiguous. You can view it either way and accept which ever you want.
Ozzie was just torn apart... Frog was indeed mad.
Frog won. I have evidence.
If Magus won, he would go right back to summoning Lavos instead of standing on top of his castle like a big idiot.
He took a breather.
Omega666Evil He took a breather, put on a bit of weight, changed his cloak to make it rounder, and shaved his head.
I like Magus too, but get real. Frog wins here.
JRodB Omega666Evil is just a dumbass
"It is heavily implied that I am punching you!"
Maybe the sinister theme is played because frog took his revenge and killed magus (not very knightly), while he could forgive him like in the middle of the game?

It's Magus.
Omega666Evil NO IT IS'N
This is my favorite ending. Lavos is defeated early, the present is unchanged, and Magus gets his comeuppance. Plus frog is a badass
Glenn/Frog went back to avenge the death of Cyruss that is what he promised he'd do.
He promised. Doesn't mean he survived.
Omega666Evil You’d he survived by what someone can do when they are determined. Like you are determined to hate on frog for no reason and comment on every comment saying he won even when he did win.
broken promise?
@@TheAdvertisement I know from experience. But I wouldn't expect someone with 666Evil in their name to understand.
if magus did win, why would he be on top of the castle since he was summoning Lavos??
Because he took some fresh air before the summoning.
Omega666Evil Are you brain dead.
Better reception? 🤷♂
Manliest ending
frog is the man
Just not lucky.
Omega666Evil DUDE FROG WON JUST STOP BEING A KID
"Gotta take care of some business" *trips*
I lold so hard
Has anyone noticed Slash, Flea, and Ozzie are names of musicians?
Slash from GnR
Flea from RHCP
and Ozzie similar to Ozzy Osbourne.
True, it would only mkes sense but what I'm saying is that it's quite possible that Frog may have won. However, it's possible that the latter may also be true.
The time gates weren't destroyed imidiatly.They were starting to shrink.Didn't you remember the main ending?
My favorite ending. Frog and Magus are awesome.
“.... Gotta take care of some business.”
Frogs gotta do what a frogs gotta DO!!
The shadow doesn't look anything like Magus, heh.
Frog just messed up a cool exit by tripping over a book... Way to go! *thumbs up!*
So that's why my mom is scared of frogs...
how can u tell thats frog? looked like it could have been either of them
Are you guys sure that's Frog/Glenn up there? The theme throws me off.
@UKMikey He took Magus' cape as a sign of victory?
Woolsey seems to have ditched Frog's Middle English for this ending
FROG BETTER HAVE ONE THAT! HE'S MY FAVE CHARACTER! GO FROG!
Sorry
Omega666Evil Why are you so determined to hate frog, he won.
for what? @@Omega666Evil
ikr? he's wasn't alone then and he's not now.@@TheAdvertisement

That's why it's the false ending. Magus won.
BUt If Magus had won, then Lavos would've been Summoned, cuz remember, this is BEFORE the Battle with Lavos!
Time travel's confusing though, so you can never tell what's going to happen!
3:28 Ozzy got pwned.
Anyone else find it creepy how frog seems like this mysterious dark evil figure at that moment.
WolfSyn “Oz...
Ozzie’s in a pickle!!!!”
So Magus is short, pudgy, and looks like a frog?
He must've stopped for lunch and got sick on the way to the top...
Imagine this ending in CGI. That would be epic with that fight between Frog and Magus.
You can barely see the figure at the top of the tower, how can you be sure that it's not really Magus?
HEad's to proportionally big, legs are too short, and torso's too thick to be Magus. All the proportions line up better with Frog.
Only it's not.
i have a desktop backgroud that has scenes from chrono trigger and it depics this ending almost perfectly except for 2 minor details in this crono sleeps on the floor in the picture he was leaning back in a chair with his legs on the table and marle was on the side of the room crono was in. in this she was on the opposite side of the room. if you want this background feel free to ask!
Frog's lines seem way out of character...
1:46 Marle & Lucca giggle at Frog's fall.
1:50 Crono: Huh..? What'd I miss..?
Thats definitely Glenn standing atop the keep... Look at how small an area the cloak flutters. Signifying a short rounded body aka a frog body aka Glenn.
Magus's cloak flutters less rapidly because he is skinny and tall. Frog's, not so much.
It's Magus.
lol he must've taken some potent weight gainer on the way up those stairs huh?@@Omega666Evil
the masamune WAS restored, thus why you had frog in your party in the first place.
After Lavos is killed the Time Gates are destroyed so how did Frog go back to his Era?
I've always wondered why a Lavos Bit always remains after you defeat him... like 0:34.
AWESOME ENDING
This scene (Frog stumping and falling) is actually drawn. Google Images "Chrono Trigger", you should find it.
6:25 That looks like Frog, which now makes him my favorite character in any game, ever.
How sad for that reason. Magus it was.
Omega666Evil Why are you so dumb. LET IT GO FROG WON.
not hardly. @@Omega666Evil
When you beat lavos in the prehistoric age before you fight the blacktyranno, everyone becomes reptiles, so why is it so unreasonable to think that it isn't magus up there? I'm sure they could have destroyed the dinosaurs if they could beat lavos. And frog isn't strong enough alone.
This ending gives me fuckin' chills...
Others have mentioned and I'm going to agree with them, there's really no way to tell EXACTLY who won, they both have a cape, they're quite similar in figure, so basically, it could be either one ^_^ Awesome game either way, my favorite RPG!
Except Magus’s head is not shaped like that.
@zeromk5 Heh agreed. I also think Zack doesn't compare to the manliness known as Cyrus, when it comes to the role of the dead best friend.
That's definelty Frog at the top of the castle, look at his round head, now he rules the future!
YAY we get to hear magus's baddass music XP
nope its not either one the winner of the fight is Glenn by simply two reasons
1. when you finish the game that means frog is strong enough to beat magus because you beat lavos who is stronger by far.
2. because he stands on the top of magus castle showing he is the victor an showing magus he is stronger by steping on his castle roof Period
LOL. Both reasons wrong.
Omega666Evil 1. Frog won not Glenn (Still the same guy)
2. FROG WON
frog won because it totally looks like frog.. frog is smaller and rounder, has a ronder head and a shorter cape also i believe
and besides that its pretty logical that frog won
and just besides that, this is just absolutely AWESOME!
LOL. Magus to strong at that time.
Omega666Evil DUDE FROG WON IT'S FACT
Because it looks like him at the top of Magus' castle.
I still to this day think frog won because think about it he is strong enough to fight lavos and win and we all know how much stronger lavos is compared to magus plus everyone is saying the spell sound is a sign if magus winning but have they forgotten that Frog knows magic too
but notice the theme of the ending when he was on the castle it would have been more of a victorious theme if frog won
I actually don't remember because it has been quite a while since I last played CT, maybe you are right about the gates.
There's no way to know who won.
No problem at all! Frog is probably my favorite character story wise, but I don't think hes as good in combat as Magus, Robo, and Crono as a team
It doesn't look anything like Magus, but alright
the whole point of this ending is that you don't KNOW who won
U don't know if it is Frog. I could be magus as well - They both have caps, so u can't be sure :)
I think it was not Frog or Magus....but Glenn
Magus
Omega666Evil IT'S FROG
Hmmm, I might have had the information wrong then, I'll have to look into it...thanks for letting me know
he wasnt summoning lavos, he was summoning the dream devourer
But why is the cape blue like Magus's and not green like Frog's?
One of the 5 best games in the world , Period.
i believe there is an answer to the repite issue. The original space time continuum intended Chrono to go back IN TIME and do certain stuff. there was no other way around it... which means Chrono was MEANT to go back and help Ayla fight the repites.
The reptites would have died from Lavos crashing to earth.
the castle wouldnt have been destroyed if magus won cause the winner rules all. magus stood on top his throne master of the future
It's funny how they named Ozzie after Ozzie Osbourne, Flea after the bassist of the RHCP and Slash as the Guitarist of GnR... Yeah, more pointless info for RUclips to know... :D
I know that, I'm saying that it was most likely "Frog" in his normal state
Nah.
Omega666Evil Yah*
is very exciting this ending
go frog go.
Frogman nana nana frogman
Failed. He did.
I also used Chrono, Lucca, and Magus most of the time, because of Flare, Luminare, and Dark Matter.
@turtleboat nop, this game is one of originals. I saw first in SNES
That silhouette has a pumpkin shaped head.
you know, chrono and goku remind me of each other, set aside the fact they LOOK like each other.(For those who don't know who goku is, hes the main character of a series called dragon ball z) but who doesn't know goku???
@WolfSyn he was a mysterious dark figure from the start
how should we know if it is frog. maybe it is magnus. i mean. in the shadow it look like them both
that is Magus on top..Listen for who makes the last attack before the last scene after the credits..Magus does with his Magic
That silhouette has a pumpkin shaped head.
look at 4:50 Magus says "Hmmmm... You have the Masamune..."
IT's hard to tell. They both where capes.
Frog!
Magus!
Omega666Evil Frog*
Interesting, that's probably the least favorite to me...but then I never liked Lucca and Marle much, I don't think Marle is that great at dealing damage compared to some of the others. Robo is great at deailng damage and healing from what I've found
It was never really a question...
but frog is glenn it,s just frog as returned as his human form
Nope
Omega666Evil Yup*
It wasn't the fully restored Masamune which Frog said during the game He needed to defeat Magus
Naa... Level 99 with all techs unlocked does the trick.
