I'm wondering why when you meet him he is not changed back into a human? I am aware of the fact that in CE the events of Frogs original timeline were completely changed, but Marle kissed him at the end of the original anyway..he...he!
And the ending from the PS and DS game showed he had indeed regained his human form...

In Crimson Echoes does his transformation back to human form not occur until later, or since his timeline was changed the events involving Cyrus and Magus obviously never happened. Did this temporal disturbance somehow force him to stay in frog form? Or was it to save development time, so you guys didn't have to create another set of Glenn human form sprite/battle animations?

Maybe I'm forgetting something involving the flow of time or the change of time-lines, but I'd appreciate it if you could answer this question thanks! It's just really bothering me...

(Oh and I noticed in Video 1 of the CE playthrough while in the Chapter select room, you can see a human Glenn as one of the Chapter Selects!)

Maybe you should wait until the Memorial is finished?

I'm thinking in regards to Crimson Echoes the scenes where Crono and Marle getting married and Glenn regaining his human form must happen after the events of CE, no? Any other suggestions?

If it's not a spoiler could someone from the CE team comment. And if it is could a member point that out, and just tell me to shut up and keep watching LOL?

Wait, are Crono and Marle already married at the start of CE?

Um, if it was a spoiler how could they point it out?

Yes I did...If it was a spoiler and you point it out as a spoiler then you're spoiling it because you're revealing the spoiler as being there. I just said spoil in the same sentence more than I ever have I think.

That doesn't matter, because if they point it out as being a spoiler, it's common knowledge that Glenn turns human anyway in the ending to CT. So in a way it is already spoiled!

And we know he isn't human in CE yet, and if they want to go with canon, he has to at some point. So if they don't want to comment on the matter by saying it's a spoiler it just confirms what we already know eventually occurs and would have suspected anyway...All they have to do is say "Its a spoiler, you'll have to wait and see". Now it "would" be a spoiler if they gave us specific details as to how it occurs, which I would assume involves major plot developments. So in a sense it really wouldn't spoil anything we didn't already know eventually happens. We just don't know how it happens in the CE story.

I think that you guys are forgetting a critical thing. Frog just becomes Gleen if he kills Magus in that duel in CT, after Crono is dead. As Magus is alive in CE, Frog didn't kill it, since he is still a frog because the curse wasn't lift up.

The point here is the 'best' ending that Crono and Marle wed is canon or not and then continued by CE.
The ending revealed that the Frog turn to Glenn somehow, but somehow in CE he is still Frog.

I think that Crono and Marle wed before the event of CE, and Frog turn into Glenn somehow after the event of CE. And the picture of Frog drawn by the orphanage maybe before he turn into Glenn. Just my two cent. I wonder if young Kidd make appearance...

My question is: it's June 7th, so where are the next set of CE movies. It was a steady flow of updates until now. What happened?

legaiaflame, today's videos (which would have been released around midnight California time) were released early. Tonight there will be yet more feasting.

Creating an entire new sprite sheet/ new animations/ sprite assembly/techs is too daunting of a task.  This should be evidence by how long it took to make just the walking frames of schala (the schala project was what....a year or even more in) From what I could tell only the walking/running animations were in....that's like...4% of the total number of animations of a playable character.
