Ah, I see someone is cosplaying as the PlayStation-era Final Fantasy series

Final Fantasy was released on the NES closer to the JFK assassination than today

small brain: FF6 with the ghost train I felt something the last edge of this Japanese postwar mournfulness

kinda the sparkly one: but weren’t Yuna and Tidus kamikazes and isn’t there def a “gotta go from my island paradise to likely death” strain going there after the “resistance against the decayed empire” theme… stopped?

bursting with pride: FF9 and 12 and the Tactics series were all indulgent returns to my childhood and even compared to the J-pop aesthetics of the other ones still how did I not notice was it because they literally depicted the player character interacting with bookshelves?

BOOM: FAT CHOCOBO
