Hats displayed in ending

[bahamutprincess]

I read somewhere that there's 40 hats in the game... during the ending I only saw a couple on my hat racks though, despite having a few others in my inventory.

What makes a hat appear on the hat rack? Is it even possible to fill all the hat racks?

Only certain hats will appear on the hat rack. Some are determined from the very start, so your save file isn't going to get them all if, for example, you name your character yourself instead of using one of the animal names.

Ah, thanks for the info.
