KrytenKoro - "That's when we bumped into Hannity. Sean Hannity. See the thing about this dude is, at first he's fair, right? And you're like "Wow!" But then BOOM. The dude's balanced, too. And you're like, HOLY SHIT."
TALK -
Why is this at Arch Behemoth, and not Arc Behemoth?

I can't fix it, because a redirect was made and only an admin can move over it. Can someone please answer?

Talk:Behemoth. Not 100% until I can translate the journal entry, but "Arch" simply doesn't make any sense in relation to the character, while Arc references quite a few things about it.

Prehaps the name is refrencing arch as in a kind of rank.

Keyblade-Blk.png I think it means Arch, as in a high rank. Remember, the Kingdom Hearts series has many relations to the Final Fantasy series, and many of the powerful enemies from all games contain the word Arch meaning a high rank or power over those similar.

Keyblade-Blk.png Yes, like an archbishop, which is an elevated bishop in Christianity. Arch must mean it's rank.

TALK -
There is no "Arch Behemoth" in Final Fantasy, (in fact, the only final fantasy enemies with Arch in their name are the Arch Dragon, from the spinoff game Vagrant Story, and Arch Azul, from the Dirge of Cerberus, released after KH Final Mix), and Japanese-based fansites translate it as Arc, and they specifically define it as relating to geometric arc (極圏)). Thorf, the only one whose actually put time into translating and analyzing a lot of Final Mix, also translated it as "Arc". "Arch Behemoth" was pretty much a name created by English fans only semi-familiar with Japanese, and it seems in most cases they did not have access to the journal entry, while Thorf and the Japanese fansites did. Furthermore, supposing the name as "Arch" and claiming that it means that the Behemoth is a higher class doesn't make sense, because the Arc Behemoth is the weakest version of all Behemoths.

Again, all of the contextual evidence points at "Arc", and all of the authoritative translations claim the translation is "Arc". There is no evidence for "Arch" besides the thought that it is "possible", which goes just as much for "Arc".
