Another beautiful aspect about frog's awakening is that all my favourite themes from the game played one after the other Wind scene>at the bottom of night>frogs theme
A lot of people don’t know but frogs age is like 38, guy is not young. This gives a lot of weight to his journey. I think he failed Cyrus in his twenties and has been brooding for the following 10 years. He threw away the heroes medal feeling like a failure, which he was. As I’m now older I can understand how failure can be hard to recover from. I think frogs story was the best in chrono trigger personally
Couldn't agree more !!! Its insane how relatable this can be to lots of human's journeys ! Some things can be understood so much better when you are older through experience.
Especially when he chooses not to fight Magus, stating "this won't bring Cyrus back". Or while being called too soft, while he clearly states hurting someone just for bullying is bad. And he prefers it this way instead of having a bad conscious.
The convergence of the story to that specific moment is so awesome, all the story you have been through... when he charges up the Masamune and cut the mountain in half, with the music in background.. it gives me the chill in the spine! :P One of the best moment in my video game experience.
Oh this brings me back! And you know what? As amazing as these scenes were, there were still soooo many more deep and moving scenes. This game is so incredible... I so hope we get a remake someday
I think it was a combined effort for me. Lucca is smart enough to understand the metallurgy of the Masamune but Robo provided means, possibly acting as a furnace and power hammer
Maybe not the best swordsman (according to himself) but his bravado made him a better knight than Glenn. Glenn only shits his pants when he thinks of fighting 9:18
@Dimitrios Papadopoulos It's possible Cyrus was just being humble. He has a reputation for a reason. It's also possible that he was telling the truth and Glenn was actually better as well.
+Red88Rex But I think a 3d version of this game would be fun. As long as it stays true to its roots. This game was soooo good. And I am content with new ports because I will willingly buy them. I don't know how many times I have replayed this...and I don't know when I will stop.
I dont think this counter narrative to make magus come across as a hero rather than a villain makes much sense. This is just extreme optimism, and I dont think Magus could really see this far to have formulated this complex plan. He could have achieved as much without having to kill Cyrus. Magus WAS guilty of murdering Cyrus, no matter how you look at it.

Frog is probably one the greatest characters in an RPG to date.
Best theme music as well

@kobarsos82 exactly
definitely teared up and this is why fantasy is relevant and this is why being human feels good
For real 💯💯💯
I had goosebumps on the SNES version, when the sword started glowing.
Lol when I was a kid I always had frog in my team. He was like the main character to me
Frog kinda sucks. His Water elemental doesn't produce much damage in fights, Ayla and Robo on the other hand can whip some ass
@@larryburns5805 He has full party healing, though. Way more valuable than Marle.
I guess Robo does, too. But Robo isn’t as cool as Frog.
1:41 Frogs character is so wise and reserved.
“ I must ponder this turn of events “

when that zeal corridors of time music first hits..
One of the best parts in the game.

Frog's character truly has the most complex depth and nature in the entirety of the game with only Magus coming as a close second!
Well I need another box of tissues.
Red88Rex you can use my shirt
@@WaRDaddy88 you mean your thong
I must say that the DS did a woonderful job on remastering the 16 bit visuals. BRAVO
For me its always been Robo who helped fix the Masamune, was weird seeing Lucca doing it.
I think it was a combined effort for me.
Lucca is smart enough to understand the metallurgy of the Masamune but Robo provided means, possibly acting as a furnace and power hammer
Back when games had stories!
now rpg pay to win era 😢
Indeed although baldur's gate 3 begs to differ now.
The point and Ribbit at the very very end is all he needs to say. Actions will speak for him.
The music is worth the insanity.
So cool to think cyrus did as much as 3 time travelers to get to magus but failed because the masamune was to old
Maybe not the best swordsman (according to himself) but his bravado made him a better knight than Glenn.

@Dimitrios Papadopoulos It's possible Cyrus was just being humble. He has a reputation for a reason.
It's also possible that he was telling the truth and Glenn was actually better as well.
Cyrus also calls him a marshmellow instead of too soft on snes version.
Why did they edit that out. Give it more personality.
When your better than any final fantasy
Couldn't agree more. Incredible game.
with ff7 being remade, so must chrono trigger
+stark1987 I disagree, it is a classic and perfectly fine as it is.
+stark1987 Unless Toriyama wanted to animate the entire story, I would definitely watch that

Chrono trigger >FF7 remake
@@PheonixLeFey well Chrono resurection for the "PS2" Google it.
I'm replaying the original SNES chrono trigger, and the dialogue is different in this one. Interesting.
DS version completed dialog
Only now just realised Frog was crying in this scene. Look at the Masamune 4:37
I love him
I hope to see Frog in super smash bros someday.
it was glenn who taught mihawk the world's strongst slash
either I'm being naive but do you think magus turned him into a frog to keep him away and have him get stronger and in to get ozzie to trust him more
Steffan Blanco cause Ozzie is there
Steffan Blanco he was against the fiends he had to die a violent death

Magus WAS guilty of murdering Cyrus, no matter how you look at it.
I personally think Magus did what he did in 600 AD to level up for Lavos. It’s similar to why Vegeta did what he did up until the Namek Saga
dude! stop mashing so hard when you record! damn!
At least in the DS/Steam ports they got rid of frogs English speech.
I wished Cyrus ans Magis had a more even fight, so he did not look like a joke compared to Magus.
FROGGY!
Thanks for leaving off annoying commentary like most other videos of this part include.
You're welcome.
Take you pick : I HAVE THE POWERRRRRRR! or THUNDERCATS HOOOOOOOOOOOOO
@MegamanNG yet he still was memorable
unfortunately they lost the bright colors... at least in m opinion
How did you record from your DS?
@LupeGGV JosephAngel It's possible he actually played on PC and simply used a DS Emulator, then recorded his screen.
Es hermoso
Go frog... and kill magnus, no mercy!!!!!
PEEEERRRFEEECTHHH!!!
épico epic
@dabigtito thundercats? fuck no.
Chrono Trigger is masterpiece. Sea of stars is a wannabe at best.
