General Information

Akira Toriyama, the artist for Chrono Trigger, is renowned for his unique style and skill. He completed several depictions of the main characters, some NPCs and enemies. These were spread through player's guides and other publications, while some anime cels and drawings were cleanly ported to the Playstation release of the game. They have been gathered here in quality heretofore unseen. The scene scans have been done by various people and differ sometimes; each version has been placed here.

Note that each item in Chrono Trigger was also drawn. Please consult the Image Indices for Accessories, Armor, Key Items, Items, and Weapons for Chrono Trigger to view those. For Chrono Cross art, click here.
