Every JRPG boss battle is a reenactment of the most glorious moment in Japanese history (the expulsion of the Christian missionaries in 1622.)

Take a look at the concept art for Kefka’s outfit and tell me it doesn’t look like slightly camped-up 17th-century Papal regalia.

I mean technically the Christian’s were aligned with peasants too, Japan cracked down on Christianity for the same reasons it suppressed buddhism
