That's another cool idea. Yeah, I did want this fight to be symbolic, very personal for the characters.

You know, the shadowy Amie monster is actually just a dummy enemy I've been using to test behavior and animation (I drew the characters first before drawing any monsters, so I just color swapped it), but I think it can definitely be integrated into the story.
