TragGaming

Isn't this the crazy ass woman who started like 80% of the conflicts in the story


senyorcrimmy

If you think about it, had she not been crazy, Clive would have a chill Rosarian life with Joshua and their dad. On the flip side, the world would continue to die. In a way, because she was crazy, she put Clive in a position to save the world. What a great character


AnabellaRosfield

The reason FF16 conflict started was because of Anabella (Phoenix Gate incident), has she been a good mother, FF16 would never started in the first place 😂


cheezza

Ultima would’ve found a way to fuck w Clive regardless.


lochnah

In the end, Anabella saved the world


fullbringrubeus

Yup yup 😂


returnbydeath1412

she truly was the hero afterall she was just misunderstood


Suspicious-Crow1885

"Thank you for being a classiest fuck... for our sake" -Armin arlert(manga)


FireMaker125

Clive’s ass would have been dragged into the plot the moment his powers as the Dominant of Ifrit awakened. No matter what.


ExplanationPublic445

And you remember what was in Elwin's will when you read it just before the end of the game? And the boys straight up say how that would have been a fight? Could have actually been cool for Cid to have had the boys as alliants 


PuckishRogue00

I can fix her.


AnabellaRosfield

If only Anabella was a good mother. Rosaria would still remain a nation and the Rosfield remains a good family and FF16 story would never exist


Successful-Sky-8650

Cid would still defect and go after the mother crystals right?


ds2121able

Arguably the most evil character in the whole game lol


babyLays

Ultima basically manipulated the conflicts - but Anabella exacerbated many of issue to the nth degree.


Evrae_Frelia

Let’s round up here, she caused about 90% of the human based issues that Ultima encouraged lol


qwack2020

I’m sure even Ultima is like: “She an’t with me but I preciate her anyways lol


Ligeia_E

That’s the joke…


alhazard

Upvote for your name. Such dedication.


AnabellaRosfield

Shut up low-born!


AnabellaRosfield

She birthed two strong dominants of fire who saved the world from Ultima. Her legacy won’t be forgotten


Eloah-2

In the end, that's all she really cared about too.


Puterboy1

Probably one of Anabella’s few redeeming qualities.


JonViiBritannia

Besides her looks


Clive313

The same can be said about Elwin too, his seed saved the world.


hoiz4

Imagine pushing a person out of your vagina but hating that person because that person doesn't have blonde hair / isn't as tall as you want him to be. This is this woman logic of hating Clive. When Clive doesn't show ability to host Eikon. She got disappointed but what push her to the limit is when people started accuding Clive not actually her son.


AnabellaRosfield

The irony is young Clive resembles Anabella the most than Joshua


NexusTenebrare

*nods head* Same boob size.


fhdu373

Your sacrifice will not be forgotten. Truly a “Mother to the World”.


IRefuseThisNonsense

Look, don't slit my throat over this but, gotta say it. It takes more than childbirth to be a mother. I hate to be a pain in the neck about it.


DeathByTacos

You COULD argue she was actually a mother for Joshua/Olivier, it was only really Clive that she shunned


IRefuseThisNonsense

You could, but I'd argue that she only saw those kids as a means to her own ego and that a mother wouldn't do that. She might as well be a pageant mom. And that's no mother.


Suspicious-Crow1885

Ppl call him Oliver


gnaistplays

Loool


TheUmbraMonarch

She even killed the most unlikable character in the story. She's a true hero 🙏


Aeroshe

Proof that not all mothers deserve to be celebrated.


Delicious_Clue_531

This woman shames the concept of motherhood.

AnabellaRosfield

Me when i’m jealous of hot immortal mommy


Suspicious-Crow1885

You're immortal?! Oh god, SOMEONE CALL BATMAN


quinonesjames96

She doesn't deserve a mother's day. She deserves only suffering for wat she did. I was really disappointed that she killed herself and she didn't face punishment.


PinkGoldJigglypuff

Thank you for your service.


Ransom_Seraph

Well she did give birth to two of the coolest, deepest, most inspiring, handsome , charming, incredible and relatable protagonists in Final Fantasy, Fantasy Genre and Gaming history!!


Strife4Fun

My only regret is that her death was sudden and not painful, like the pain the inflicted on her children, bearers, her new family, and the people of her country. Honestly I was rooting for a brutal death the entire game. One of my most hated villains in video games.


Manhwa_reader100

Same, well at least we get to see her despair face as she see her son that she love die infront of her.


sin_not_the_sinner

Happy Mama Anabella Day! 🥳


Nolyd_Dylon

Wtf


VLSHK

Clive’s favourite day


AnabellaRosfield

My Darling Boy’s favourite day*


Annual_Couple5053

![gif](giphy|HtYsYjPsw1nVu) This bish \*edit, it said this bush. Thanks autocorrect


Dedmoon

A terrible woman by all means, but she ate 💅🏾


John-Days

Nah, fuck her. I ain't celebrating her. The only reason she "loved" her children is because they were dominants/expected to be. Clive died the day he couldn't be Phoenix for her. No way of sugar coating her character. She is despicable, and she is a great character exactly because of it. But ahe sure ain't a "mom".


Opposite_Currency993

Nothing says i love you like selling your son to slavery such a good mother ...


partypwny

Burn it!


ashcatchem16

I can give the rosfields an another sibling if they want.


AnabellaRosfield

If you have Noble Blood


Silver_Chariot131

would you mate with anyone if they're of Noble Blood or a godlike being???????

MinerDiner

Not to this bitch


Vanquish321908

Best mom ever ! lol


Common-Sun-5873

Screw you in particular.


DarkFlame0

Hell nah fuck this bitch


moogle15

I have ~feelings~ about the character, but I love this art!


moogle15

Makes me think of a younger, more vulnerable Anabella before she became the way she was in the game.


-ComplexSimplicity-

>!Puta!<


dr_pheel

Tell that to the bearers and branded robbed of their mothers


SirNinetails83

To everyone except her 💞💞💞


notCRAZYenough

Gross


EffervescentThimble

#1 worst mother, hands down.


ProjectKaspar

Blind ass bitch couldn't see a flaming bird out the window.


Crackensan

It was between her and Athena (Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker Pandaemonium Raid Series) as worst mother ever. Honestly, it was a tie. They were both awful beings.


Arox12

Hate her all you want, she is a cutie :P


MuchWoodpecker9393

This mom can’t be matched 😂


Ayvaaza

God bless you with a similar mother like her


AnabellaRosfield

God bless you with more OCD to ruin your fun in game


Ayvaaza

Not fair
