I remember when I was a kid the first time I beat the game, I got The Oath on accident because I literally forgot about Magus. I was so focused on Lavos, that it never crossed my mind Magus was playable. I realized on my 2nd playthrough that he was playable, by accident of course. It all came full circle. Getting The Oath the first time will always hold a special place in my heart, and made me realize Anti-Heroes were a thing.
My two favorite game music composers are in this game. Never really paid attention to the fact that nobuo is here as well. The musics in this game are unforgettable.
I've always been rather curious. I remember hearing that Secret of Mana and Chrono Trigger were both two halves of the same game. I mean, look at SoM's Boy & Girl and CT's Crono & Marle. They're so similar it's shocking. The story of SoM feels incomplete at the latter half. When you get Flammie, and are able to move around the world, the story doesn't have the same impact until the very end. It feels like it suffers. The first half of the game feels very story heavy when compared with the second half. That's because the CD-ROM adapter for the SNES was cancelled (Playstation), which meant that they had to cut stuff out for Mana to make it fit into the cart. Which also meant they couldn't put in the Chrono Trigger half of the game. But still. Just imagine. What WOULD have the finished product been like? Secret of Mana and Chrono Trigger are both to be considered among the best games that the SNES had to offer. If the team had been allowed to have actually done what they set out to do, to make that ultimate game, which in development was called "Maru Island", then... my goodness. That RPG would have been one of the longest (IMO easily over a hundred hours just to even see everything), and one of the most epic of RPG's ever created, and that's saying something even though SoM and CT are considered as such. Maru Island would have been the crown jewel of the SNES library, bar none. Then again, thanks to the Sony deal falling apart, we got other games through the Playstation. One door closed, but far more opened. Still. I'm kinda surprised that after all this time, nobody has attempted to make Maru Island. To find that original vision and make it a reality. What would that final game have been like? Boy/Crono and Girl/Marle would have had the most epic adventure, of not only saving the world from the Mana Beast, but saving time from Lavos as well. You would have lost the Sprite half way, after beating the Mana Beast, but continued on. There are so many things to consider, of what could have happened.
not finishing this video cause i wanna get the endings myself but lol nice hifumi also was really confused about the chancellor part ngl thought it was at the parade or summit thanks dood
why did you put that cancer music between the endings constantly ear raping me because the audio is totally different from the game and the music. I hate you for this but I also love you for compiling endings im too lazy to produce.
ah, ending 13 is the only one i missed, because i made the mistake of charging the pendant right away. the game won't let you leave the palace afterward!
So much anxiety from watching this and not getting all the endings as a kid and not remembering all the plot....and everyone permanently going bye bye to their timelines
Thank you for this video! Some of these endings are great! Unfortunately, you often have to skip huge portions of the story to achieve them... This is my only complaint about the game.
I thought it was wild that Chrono looked like Goku, Glenn looked like Vegeta, and Marle looked like Bulma... Until I realized it was Akira Toriyama doing the art!
Thank you! I finished this diamond of a game, many many years ago.. but didnt know there were more than one endings. It was really nice to see the endings of the game!! The animations in the end from where they are?
I used Frog Ayla Robo for the DS only ending once it loses 9999 HP all spells are useless and at lv 70 it still does 500+ per turn so I used a 999 healing Slurp Kiss every turn while attempt to have Robo trigger 4x 9999 hits until it dies that way.
I do believe Chrono Cross is not actually a sequel. It's debatable but I'm pretty sure officially it's not. I think the only thing that could make it a sequel is Lavos. You should still play it. It's pretty good. It's not Trigger good. But still worth a play through or 2 or how ever many endings are in that game.
@@chonkychan199 I think it's pretty fun. The combat system is pretty cool. The story is pretty good. The ending seems rushed. There are multiple ways to play through the story and get different playable characters. Choices you make effect how the game plays out. Side note Chrono Cross has the most playable characters I've ever seen in a Jrpg. I found it fun playing the game over and over just to see how many characters I could get. Some are hidden. Some are choice locked. I had lots of fun playing Chrono Cross.
Considering that *that* Magus is from a different timeline and not the fixed one, my guess was that the Crono Cross universe happens in an alternative timeline other than the main fixed one where this other dimension Magus is from
7:04 he wanted to have babies with Ayla!! 😁😁😁😁 55:02 yeah!! I have nothing better to do!! 🤓 58:14 LOL Frog is an ancestor of Marle! 😆 1:30:50 taken from Chrono Cross?😯
Greet greet greetings. Ooooooo God made all. His son accepted death and beat death to forgive us any wrongs. His son rose to life 3 days later. His son's name is Jesus. ooooooo Breathe air
I made a mistake at 38:28 it should be labelled 3c instead of 3b
Dude!! What were u plugging n unplugging to yer PC? 😆
Lucca:
**Casually finds an abandoned baby in the forest**
**Smiles obliviously**
**Takes the baby for herself**
Maybe she was hungry?

Isn't that Frog atop after his victory?
IMO The Oath is the most badass ending.
@@utarian7 It's meant to be ambiguous who won.
It's awesome how a 90's game has a lot of Hidden Endings like that, not for all its the BEST Old school RPG.
That oath ending with the credits scrolling while you can hear the battle going on in the background is positively bad ass!
It would’ve been cool if you so choose to defeat Magus, afterwards Frog turns back into glen and instead of frog you have glen in your party instead
Lucca and Marle bonding over teasing boys was really cute.
8:50 I love how Doan is just like, "Do I really need to be here for this?" and nopes out of there. I felt that.
Genuinely laughed because I just beat the game and noticed the exact same thing XD
54:45 RIP Akira Toriyama!
I like how this game makes paradoxacal events explainable to a degree.
That dev team ending is awesome. Props to all those guys.
This game is a true masterpiece!! I'm 40 years old and only last week I ended this game ( beyond the time ending)
My two favorite game music composers are in this game. Never really paid attention to the fact that nobuo is here as well. The musics in this game are unforgettable.
The amount of detail that was dedicated to this game is simply beautiful. I think it is a great inspiration to do other projects.
Despite CC being fun and all, it shat all over Magus' story.
Come again

Make a video
Bring Chrono Trigger to the Switch!
I've been patiently waiting. I assume that would have to be very specially done.
@@Vaga-Bard: Maybe. Idk
So they did
12:50 - Goddamn, that's tearjerking. In a good way.
Really good video. Must have put a lot of work into it deserves way more likes.
Not really, I just hit the record button on a game I liked playing.
Casually walking my pet autistic robot and come across a random baby with some jewelry.. "free baby, nice.."
Just finished Chrono Trigger on my SNES and CRT TV and got the bad and second ending on this list.
Frog is Vegeta in the end
After the second passage to the same ending, I vitally need such a video. Special appreciation for Caramelldansen
The last ending hits deep. Its so beautiful and the beginning of the villian arc of Magus
lucca: ooh free baby
if you are going to show all the endings maybe don't skip through the dialogue
Fair enough too late now
You can always pause and read it. I thought he mostly did a good job of giving enough time.
I always wished if there was someway to get Janus and human Glenn together at the end.. Or find Schala..
That’s what imagination is for
The music was really good in this game
Float Away is the best ending
ty for this. i liked this game but im not doing multiple more full playthroughs just for some cutscenes
especially liked seeing the one without destroyed epoch and the froggy ending
As good as FF6 is, Lavos > Kefka.
And my favorite ending is Crono and Marle hanging from the balloons. 😊
not finishing this video cause i wanna get the endings myself but lol nice hifumi
also was really confused about the chancellor part ngl
thought it was at the parade or summit
thanks dood
Awesome video! I've played the game a dozen times over but I hadn't seen many of these.
What's the deal with ending 7 and Chrono replacing Magus?
A lot of people have wondered about that. I think it's just a funny what if scenario, but it's one of the stranger ones.
why did you put that cancer music between the endings constantly ear raping me because the audio is totally different from the game and the music. I hate you for this but I also love you for compiling endings im too lazy to produce.
As a kh fan nomura screwing with me is something I'm used to but damn wasn't i expecting it here
ah, ending 13 is the only one i missed, because i made the mistake of charging the pendant right away.
the game won't let you leave the palace afterward!
So much anxiety from watching this and not getting all the endings as a kid and not remembering all the plot....and everyone permanently going bye bye to their timelines
10:03 I totally forgot about this ending. Cronos reaction was priceless 😂😂😂
Well, the failure to defeat Lavos ending makes it clear "You really done messed up here....check out all this damage you have caused."
So who was atop the castle in the "the oath" ending?
Either frog or magus they leave it open
Float away was my first one and damn I cried like a child
oh, i once found a strange short Flash game, where you play as Magus, and DO save Shala.
if i remember, it was simply called "Magus".
Thank you for this video! Some of these endings are great! Unfortunately, you often have to skip huge portions of the story to achieve them... This is my only complaint about the game.
nice video loved the caramelldansen transitions, the oath is the coolest ending
Recently played this , got ending 2. But of course I've seen the bad ending there as well until I figured out the cores.
Thank you for all of these informations.
I thought it was wild that Chrono looked like Goku, Glenn looked like Vegeta, and Marle looked like Bulma... Until I realized it was Akira Toriyama doing the art!

You're the real hero
When i was 8, i thought the bad ending was the only one. I am a cadual gamer at best, but once a story gets me, I'm in. Cant put Chrono Trigger down
1:07:53, what if you opened that chest?
.... fuck.
I always wanted to save Shala it seems impossible tho
Good video thank you
I like the balloon ending best
I beat the game today with 2 endings first follow that cat and second float away, Im trying get 99 to fight red Nu.
Question, on the SNES version is there no lost sanctuary where you meet the reptites and clear out monsters for them?
Today I beat the game for the first time and got ending 2a

Supposedly the DS ending/dream devourer ties in to chrono cross
How do you get these endings? Are they all new game + or can they just be achieved by saving before a certain event?
As long as you are strong enough on a new game, you can just get these endings by killing lavos before certain events, so new game + is not needed.
Why put annoying music every start of the title? You dance dance revo fan or what? sheeshhhh
Because it’s awesome.
Lmao 😂
Fir early 00s vibes
@@MrLeFilipfloppyvelarde Not even.. that's that crazy fly dude that makes ridiculous exhaust noises. Brreeep bap bap bum bum xD
54:47😢
So many endings. I worried to play this game. I just got 1 ending when chrono die, my new party is ex enemy(forgot his name) then beat last boss
How come Frog doesn't turn human when you: don't rez Crono / kill Magus / Epoch destroyed ? Am I missing something?
7:04 he wanted to have babies with Ayla!! 😁😁😁😁
55:02 yeah!! I have nothing better to do!! 🤓
58:14 LOL Frog is an ancestor of Marle! 😆
1:30:50 taken from Chrono Cross?😯
I like 2b better than the cat one
did chrono just spoke :|
How'd they revive chrono without the clone?
What do you mean?
@@chonkychan199 To revive Chrono in the game you needed the Chrono Trigger (egg) + Clone doll won from Leene Square game
Time paradox?😃
8:28 lmao

cant watch. you just skip through all dialog.

bro that annoying ass music at the start of every chapter of this video gets me irritated
still got an ad
That's wierd. What for?

I don't meet the requirements to turn ads on even if I wanted to so that's annoying
