FFXI Anime!?

[Malacite]

So I stumbled upon this just a short while ago...




No way that's a fan art, too professional >.>


So what gives?

Re: FFXI Anime!?

I've seen anime-quality fan art before, but I hope you are right and this is an anime.



PS > Yeah I have no idea where that's from.

Re: FFXI Anime!?

Ditto to everything ray said.

If you look in the lower left corner you can clearly see he has a shield on his right arm. Everybody in FFXI is right handed and so holds their shield in the left hand, thus this cannot be an FFXI anime and is simply fan art.

I kinda had to laugh.

But yeah, Ray +2. I've seen a lot of HQ fan art before, really good shit; nothing saying this couldn't be that as well. As for the fact this must be Link's cousin...

Meh, artistic liberty or flip image in w/e art program he/she coulda used. Either way, it's still a nice pic.

Re: FFXI Anime!?

I'm guessing a professional anime that just happens to have something that looks like an FFXI character innit.

Re: FFXI Anime!?

Isn't "professional" anime just many drawings put together to make it look like its moving? lolz. I don't see how this can't be just another drawing.

Re: FFXI Anime!?

Nowadays it's more complex, with CGI and such involved.

Re: FFXI Anime!?

It's fanart, I've seen anime-worthy, if not better, fan art and even 3d animation, many times before

Still, its made by a dude with a hand, like most dudes out there.

Re: FFXI Anime!?

What they said. The art style doesn't look like something Square would pull, and I've seen fanarts that are CG'd to look just like an anime. Also, the background looks a bit suspicious, especially around the left edge.

If you look in the lower left corner you can clearly see he has a shield on his right arm. Everybody in FFXI is right handed and so holds their shield in the left hand, thus this cannot be an FFXI anime and is simply fan art.

I lol'd...but there are left-handed NPCs.

Coincidence? I think not!

. . . Of course, this would mean that this was older than we thought.

Re: FFXI Anime!?

It's from the anime "Welcome to the NHK". If I'm not mistaken, there's an episode of FFXI/MMORPGs, or just a segment that totally spoofs on it.

DEBUNKED!

Re: FFXI Anime!?



Yes, they parodied FFXI.



Not with that artstyle, though.



Try harder next time
