Funny Bits in Star Ocean 2 (259)

You know, I understand that it would have been hard for the developers to make a jump animation for every single character that hops onto the Herush, but then why make this pointless and boring scene at all? Just skip it!

Claude, Rena, Narl and the others meet up with Marianna and the squad who will assist them in the mission (what's with their uniforms anyway? Heraldry catalysts?). Our friends get to see the Herush, a fearsome shark-like creature floating about the wharf; they aren't scared by its looks (they've seen worse demons already), but rather by the thought of how it is employed to go underwater. Will they have to jump into its mouth? Actually, it's never shown or explained in the game. I guess this Herush creates a sort of air bubble around itself, so that its passengers can just sit on its back; this hypothesis is corroborated by the fact that everyone hops onto its back before leaving.
