In this episode I take a look at Anima, the hugely popular Aeon of Final Fantasy X. This is a brief Final Fantasy analysis of the symbolic origins of the Anima summon along with its fantastic adaptation into one of the short-lived but immensely popular summoning mechanics to feature in Final Fantasy lore.
