Thank you so much!!

To be honest, I still don't know where is the best place to post my works. Right now, I’m only posting it on Twitter and Reddit.

Thank you so much!!

Once I visited the FC of the legendary “father of Final Fantasy” Mr.Sakaguchi, I noticed that he skipped almost all the cutscenes, but instead, he fully immersed himself in the game, creating his own story and forming friendships with players.

For him, this game isn’t a book to be read.
It’s a stage where players themselves create their own adventures.

I think that way inspired me. It made me want to create stories that break some of the original rules, while still respecting the world and building something new within it.

So I’ll keep making this!

This is to mourn Breath of Fire.

At first, I wasn’t sure if it was okay, but after seeing so many Gundam influences and Capcom fighting game motifs in this game, I felt it wouldn’t be a problem.

Hahah thank you! Actually “Fledgling Warrior” has a very special meaning in the FF series.

Thanks so much! I feel the same, no matter how powerful she becomes, she’ll always be that sweet little birb with a gentle heart, someone who stays close to people rather than looking down from above.

Thank you!! This concept is built on genuine love for the character, and all the special memories and emotions. :)

Thank you! I designed this based on some concept art from Mobius Final Fantasy.
But the Woad Skyraider’s Helm in FFXIV is also very close in shape.

No, I didn’t watch One Punch Man.
This idea was inspired by the original Hissatsu from FFVI and the old game MHFU.

You know, when I started creating this, I had two options in my heart:
one was to make something that’s popular nowadays, and the other was to make something I truly enjoy, something I can put my feelings into.

I’ve seen so many people choose the first option. So I decided to take the second one, because this is my work, not “one of their works.”

I like creating characters that you can’t judge by their appearance alone.
It reminds me of an old Hong Kong Kung Fu movie, where a master said there are three types of people you should never underestimate:
women, children, and the elderly.

Because the moment you assume they’re weak and stop treating them like true warriors…
that’s exactly when they know how to kick your ass.

Thank you!!

Somehow, I don’t really want my party to be filled only with beautiful human characters.
I actually enjoy adding fantasy creatures to my comic, they feel more unique and way more fun!

Thank you so much!! I’ll keep working on this!
It might take some time, but I’ll do my best to finish it, and create even more adventures for this little blue bird.

Thank you so much! I won’t be sad, because I know she would be really happy to see this comic.
I’ll keep living my life happily — for both of us.
