Vivi: Difference between revisions

The oddity of his Struggle battle (such as his enlarging his Struggle Bat) may be a homage to the [[finalfantasy:Black Magic|Black Magic]] that he uses in ''Final Fantasy IX''. Furthermore, that Nobodies masquerade as him is a reference to his original ''Final Fantasy'' incarnation: in ''Final Fantasy IX'', Black Mages were a race of magical beings created from Mist that did not possess souls. Thus most of them only lived a year before their bodies slowly shut down, but as the prototype Black Mage, Vivi had a much higher life expectancy. However, the truth of his origins still left Vivi questioning his existence and purpose in life. Various aspects of the Black Mage race are similar to the Nobodies of ''Kingdom Hearts''.

He also appears in ''Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance'' as the final opponent in the [[Final Cup]] of the Flick Rush minigame. He uses a [[Majik Lapin]], a [[Ryu Dragon]], and a [[Pegaslick]].
