'''Jack Garland''', known simply as '''Garland''' in the original ''Final Fantasy'' and other related media, is a major antagonist from the ''Final Fantasy'' series and the main protagonist from ''Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin''. In his debut, Garland would act as both the first and final boss, making him the overarching antagonist of the game. The character would go on to make later appearances in the franchise, most notably the ''Dissidia Final Fantasy'' series, yet would remain a fairly reserved presence within it. This would forever change, however, with the reveal and later release of ''Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin''. The game features the newly christened Jack Garland as its protagonist. In what can almost be considered a parody of typical JRPG protagonist, Jack is an arrogant and brash man who is single-minded in his goal to keep fighting until he can defeat Chaos, to the point where he even interrupts boss monologues to get to battles quicker. His constant claim to need to "kill Chaos" in the game's reveal trailer at E3 2021 became the subject of many memes, particular on 4chan's /v/ board. After the game's release, many came around to Jack's character and praised both his backstory and personality.
