(Nor does the song ever come up again.) As a dark reimagining of the original Final Fantasy, Stranger of Paradise is indeed strange but it doesn’t elicit surprise or wonder, just utter bafflement of how it came to be.This can’t just be boiled down to the worst protagonist created by Tetsuya Nomura in a long time.
