I don't think even Piano Squall knows about this.

There's a Final Fantasy anime known as Final Fantasy: Unlimited, which is half the inspiration for my name. It's about a brother and sister, Ai and Yu, both around 10 years old, who travel to another world on a quest to find their parents. Early on, they also meet up with Lisa Pacifist, a Kigenjutsu master (this is synonymous with "Defender of Life"), and a mysterious man known only as the "Black Wind", who wields one of the most powerful weapons ever, the Magun, which allows him to fire bullets made from Soil to call forth Summoned Creatures.

The anime doesn't tell the entire story, however. In Japan, there was also a drama CD known as "Final Fantasy: Unlimited Before" and a manga known as "Final Fantasy: Unlimited After", which told more of the story. Translations of these can be found at the Square Insider Forums. Ai no Kareshi, who did the translations, is currently working on the last bit of story.

Final Fantasy: Unlimited doesn't really get much attention, since it ran only for a short while. It was originally intended to be about 50 episodes, but ended up 25 due to lack of audience interest. I happen to have all 25 episodes with subtitles, so if anyone wants them, I guess I could put them on Megaupload or something.

My favorite music from here is the second ending theme, "Romancing Train", as well as all music involved with Kuroki Kaze and his Magun.

OMG I would love to steal those eps from you! I loved FFU! In my game of Chocobo Tales, I even named my protagonist Chobi. ^_^

Obsessed much...? Nah, I'm joking. XD

Sure, I'll try to put them on Megaupload. This is the first time I'd be putting something there, so it may take a while.

I think you can find all the episodes on veoh.com, but I haven't been there in a while.... So don't quote me on that =P

Much ♥ to FF:U ^^

Well then, I stand corrected.

Apparently, MegaUpload isn't wanting to work. I think the file's too big. I'll try splitting into three parts, then I'll get back to you.

Oh wow I'm kinda late on this but how could I not post on this?  I loved FF:U  Even if it was cut short.   I'm glad others had a chance to see it too!

I've heard of this! I've never found the time to watch it though... It sounds interesting to me.


P.S.  Ha ha! Lisa "Pacifist"! And she practices Kigenjutsu. ha ha ha!  Get it?! ha ha HA!!
