I seriously wondered about this while I played through the game, but I never got around to finishing it because I just thought this game was so horrible (no offense to those out there who are fans of this game). Anyway I mean Zidane doesn't even look anything like a monkey I'm wondering if the producers of the game just put it there just for laughs or if they had an actual reason as to why they put it there.
 
There's a reason as to why he has a tail, but we're never told exactly why his race actually has them.

Zidane is that of a Genome, and they all possess tails. If you haven't completed the game, I suggest you do so.

I gets good. ;D
 
Yea, he does have a tail because that's how the genomes are constructed. A more reasonable question would be "Why would they be given tails in their construction?" ... and to that, I have no clue at all. Balance to not fall out of their tall trees?
 
I bet it´s because the creators are Dragon Ball fans and made them have a tail like the sayan warriors had!

So it´s a tribute to Goku!
 
Its because DBZ was so popular so they decided to use a tail like the saiyans have to appeal to all the fans. :P :P :P No idea why the genomes are made like that ...i don't think Garland every says anything about it
 
Genomes are the missing link between humans and monkeys. That's why he has a tail.

Problem solved.

Keep it on topic people. Alright. Let's hear some plausible suggestions on why.

I deleted your last post, Wolfe. lol Plausible reason. Even though I wouldn't say either of the last two were good... they are plausible. Him being from another race in another fictional series is not plausible. lol Please stop continuing that.

I guessed as much AT, however, a PM or note would have been truly appreciated. If a person does something wrong, and you don't tell them, they're not aware what they're doing is wrong, and will continue to do so, however unintentionally. Unless of course, an uber spiffy mod such as yourself is always around to clean up the messes:P.

As far as plausibility is concerned, do you know for a fact that Hironobu Sakaguchi (the creator and producer of the game, but I'm sure you were well aware of that fact) chose to design Zidane with a tail not because deep down he wanted the fans to know that the protagonist of his game was actually from another race from a fictional series but for some other mysterious reason? If so, you're more than welcome to speak your mind. However, as a mod, and one picked so recently, you should have the decency not to dispute the opinions of others simply because you don't agree with them. Perhaps I whole heartedly believed what I wrote? "Logic" and "reason" are not required to post your opinion in this thread, and that is the point of the thread, to express ones opinion. Dark Fenrir wanted to know why we thought Zidane had a tail, he never said that our reasons had to make sense to a zealous mod such as yourself.

I will make an argument to support my theory, if you are still unsatisfied and find that my views are, in your omnipotent opinion unsound, then I'll be more than happy to stop posting "Zidane is a Super Sayajin".

The reason Zidane had a tail was because Zidane is a Super Sayajin. The reason that I believe that Zidane was a Super Sayajin is simply because the lead character designers: Shukou Murase and Shin Nagasawa are both tremendous supporters and huge fans of the Dragon Ball series. They have both claimed publicly on numerous occasions that they would truly have loved the chance to work on the series, stating that were the series to make a comeback, they would be "...overjoyed to contribute [our] talents..." (roughly translated)

On a final note...

There is a little more similarities to DBZ than I first thought.

Zidane has a tail - Goku has a tail

Zidane technically has a brother, who knows of his existance and is evil unlike Zidane - Goku had a brother who was aware of his existance and was evil unlike Goku

Zidane is from another planet (But doesn't know it) - Goku is from another planet (but doesn't know it)

Zidane was originally sent to cause chaos in Gaia - Goku was sent to destroy earth but both turned out to be good.

:D
 
lol Ok ok.. and sorry about the name. I don't think it's plausible still but it is an arguable point, I suppose. You're not really suppose to publically disagree with mods... but whatever. I'm not uppity enough to give a damn. lol Plus you brought up some good points. Also, the beers I've just put away probably make your case seem more legit than they are. But do post an explanation if you're going to say something so seemingly farfetched, even if tehre is a possibility it's complete BS. I'm certainly not going to fact check it. lol

EDIT: JustDaz, they also transformed with Trance. lol
 
My deepest apologies, Aztec. I wasn't aware (although, I probably should have been) that you weren't allowed to publicly disagree with the mods . Any future issues (hopefully we won't see too many) I'll PM you.

As far as fact checking you can just google or wiki the names I listed. You're bound to get a credit sheet eventually.
 
What can I say? Aztec is just all over the place, cleaning up our mistakes! (Sarcastically, but in a friendly manner.)

Warm regards,

XD! My bad, Aztec. Back on topic!

The reason Zidane has a tail is because IMO, it helps to add a hint of mystery to the game, it's not a big deal, but it does get much people asking about it. It's one tiny tweak to get more people interested. A great marketing ploy...
