This is an in-depth psychological analysis of Chrono Trigger. In this video I discuss the symbolism, psychological and philosophical themes present in the Chrono series. The video examines each era, character, and major plot point, alongside several different themes, such as evolution, human consciousness, the trend towards reason, futurism and the search for meaning in modern culture, and the ancient world's relevance in contemporary life.
