Characters, Plot, and Themes / Re: Why, between so many endings there's not one which Serge and Kid end together?

There are a lot of secret scenes like that. Like if you have Razzly in the party while you defeat Hydra, Razzly will say something about the Hydra having some babies in the womb, so the Hydra goes on living. If you go the dragon isle and fight the dwarves there will be dialogues about that, the dwarves say they will leave the water dragon isle, Rosetta will live, you get wisp cape but you lose Razzly 7tech in the future. But you get a wonderfull scene later on about a baby hydra being take care of by the dwarves if you go back to Hydra Marshes.

"There are many different people in the world. Find
yourself and then you may be able to discover whats inside. .......... is for
specification."

The remaster got a new translation or maybe the japanese version was changed I don't know.
The new version, instead of "is for specification", says "it's a feature not a bug".

This is the truth! This is my belief!...At least for now:

• Kid already is orphanage kid, she doesn't change costume.
• There is some sort of shadow overlay in her sprite to make it look like she is hiding in the shadows.
• When you acess Serge status with the spectra swallow equipped, it glitches the shadow overlay for some reason.
• Her nods and shakes are merely the programmed reaction she has in the orphanage scene playing over and over again, it has nothing to do with the music playing.

• Enter with Serge's Spectra Swallow Equipped and enter in and out of your menu,
  checking the Status. Once you get back out, Kid will be in her orphanage costume
  wearing it from the top down.
  The reason this occurs is Serge's identity is taking on a color or station of
  passage which Kid remembers, causing her to immediately come out of the shadows
  in that particular orphanage outfit.
  It's very interesting how the programmers have outlined this and when looked at
  closely you can only guess how well it was done:
  
  Regular swallow: No effect, kid stays shadow
  Mastermune: Same as previous
  Copper swallow: Same as previous
  Stone swallow: Same as previous
  Silver swallow: Same as previous
  Spectra swallow: Causes kid to appear in original Orphanage costume
  

  Why should Kid remember spectra swallow? Spectra swallow is completely optional, not even mastermune is necessary to save Kid from the fire, you can do it with just the Chrono
  Cross, besides you can't get developers ending with the mastermune it's impossible.
  

• Story A1: Serge treats others in a way which he himself usually lives as during
  the game, Harle takes the black Relic, Serge recognizes his purpose before
  entering the Sea of Eden.
  Man in front of door changes his speech to "............". You may wonder what
  or how it occurred.

  
  

  What is he bragging about Harle taking the Black Relic? You lose Harle before you can even do the Dragon Quests, so that's not right.
  
  Also he says if you advance in the game you get a different developers ending. Too bad you can only get that ending if you beat Lavos directly with Serge alone at the beginning of the game, so if you go advance in the story first, you won't be able to get it anymore.
  

  I just tested, just after you save Riddel you can in fact go to marbule and get the black relic before Harle leave the party. But it doesn't really matter, there is no different dialogue or anything of the sort. It didn't change anything getting the relic with Harle.
