    Omega hasn't thrown anything at us that we've fought before so far. Midgardsormr just doesn't fit the pattern.

    Also, that just....doesn't look anything like him anyway. Midgardsormr's full body is limbless aside from wings (and also enormous, but that's easily handwaved, as with Bahamut and Alexander). The dragon in the trailer has legs.

    Minion Middy and mount Middy both have normal dragon-like proportions with 2 front and 2 hind legs. Since Omega originally fought Middy a looooong time ago, its possible that this is a fight based on some point between mount sized and keeper of the lake sized.

    (personally I think it is him based on the head shape. All of Midgardsormr's forms have kept his wing-looking ear fins, which are pretty prominent on this dragon boss)

    First off, Halicarnassus was a repeat boss in the sense that the name was the same, but the form was different.
    Second, are you forgetting that Middy has his minion and mount forms as well? Those both have wings and four legs.

    why doesn't fit? i mean, he testing our strenght, so what better way to do what make us fight against a simulacrum of midgardsormr on his prime?(since he did become a lot weaker once he did sit down on hydaelin)

    Here's the thing that was heavily emphasized throughout this entire storyline - Omega is creating beings as simulations to test strengths and improve himself. It isn't random at all - Omega and Midgard have had multiple interactions with one another. It isn't at all surprising that Omega may decide to create a simulation of Midgard and pit it against the WoL to see if their strength can overcome the King of Dragons. Pretty positive Omega considered Midgard a fairly powerful being as well.

    At the end of Sigmascape Omega is trying different things to trigger "our" (the protagonists) emotions. So bringing (a replik) of Midgardsormr does fit very well. I already did expect something like this. Also a battle again Omega itself as the final test.

    Based on the leaked info, which thus far seems correct with the inclusion of a Chaos, Midgardsormr, and an Omega fight... don't be so sure about Omega being the "final test"

    I'm fairly certain that this version of Suzaku is female... the armor it wears in phoenix form looks like the breastguard has space for... well... breasts. And the voice actor sounds female to me too... but that could go either way since voice actors provide voices to characters of the opposite gender all the time.

    My headcanon wants Suzaku to be female anyway so that I can rename patch 4.4 "Blazing Waifu Wars: Suzaku vs. Firezuzu"

    Final test doesn't mean the End. Final test can also mean the last test before we face the reason for the test
