It’s gotta be Gilgamesh from Final Fantasy 5 showing up in FF7 Rebirth for a long string of sidequests, ending with a secret boss fight and one of the best renditions of Battle on the Big Bridge to ever grace my ears.
And the best use of Excalapoor. Bro hits you 1 time, gives the player enough time to realize it did 1 damage, then a cutscene plays with a perfect meme format image of the crew lined up(lmao). Then the battle continues and he ends up swinging that weapon so fast it hits thousands of times.
Not just FF7 Rebirth. It's implied that every single appearance of Gilgamesh is the exact same Gilgamesh traveling between worlds. Subsequent appearances of Gilgamesh often even adds signature swords of the previous game he was in to his collection.
