*******POSSIBLE FINAL FANTASY 6 SPOILER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'll dig it up. Its the "intro" FMV for FFVI that came with FFAnthology. When you see Shadow and a flash of light, Amano's artwork of Relm is hidden in there. You can't see it unless you analyze it frame by frame (and it only appears for like 2 frames).
The below image is Shadow about one second before the flash.
![]()
Exactly one second later. You can see Amano's artwork.
![]()
The next frame. Relm's image disappears to shadow again.
![]()
The frame after that
![]()
And for reference, here is Amano's artwork of Relm
And this is the reply to a Square PR Rep about the guy's findings:
Dear Mr. Cox,
Thank you for your interest in our products, especially Final Fantasy VI. You are the first person to notice such a thing, and we have looked into it. You are apparently correct on your assumption. There is an image of the Amano sketch of the character Relm within the movie. We, however, cannot speak for those who made the game or movies and will simply say no comment at this time. But, from one Final Fantasy lover to another, I agree with you on the subject and believe the two characters are related. Good work.

So, Square admited it, in a sense (since the PR people
speak on behalf of the company). And if that's not enough proof, you can still stick with Shadow's fifth dream, which gives more than enough clues by itsself. Since I suck at explaining things, I'll copy someone else's explaination of the fifth dream, and some related events:
:Although not in any order, the dreams do tell the story of how two thieves rob a train and are being tracked around the world. One of the mens names is Clyde. During one of the dreams Clydes partner is hurt and tells him to leave and get away before the angry mob catches them both. Clyde reluctantly leaves, and the fate of his friend is not known, however, it is assumed he was killed or locked up for his crime. Meanwhile, Clyde has made his way to Thamasa. There he meets a young woman and he then lives the rest of his life with her, and apparently has a kid.
Ok, sounds thrilling, right? I bet your all saying, "so what?", well I'll tell you what. The 5th dream gives away something of an interesting secret. But, in order to get it you must have saved Shadow first and had all four dreams in the world of balance. Once you have him go and save Relm. Once your done you'll be sleeping in Thamasa, where the dream for Shadow takes place. It goes as the following:
Clyde: (to his dog) You came to fetch mebut I wont be coming back. I want you and the girl to live in a peaceful world(but the dog will not leave)
-Clyde and the dog leave.
Ok? Follow me so far? Now, like I said it requires you to play through the game more than once to get the whole storyand this is a reason why. If you do not get shadow first and get Relm instead, Relm will be in the bed where Shadow should have been. She will have a dream now, and will be this:
(Relm is with Strago in the house and a dog is also presentShadows (Clydes) dog. Strago is upset about something)
Relm: Where is father? Will he ever come back?
(Strago then sends the dog to go and get Clyde)
Starting to catch on now? The scene with Relm obviously takes place before the scene between Clyde and his dog. "
PS. At least people have stopped with the posts that General Leo can be revived in FFVI (he can't).
