I won’t ferget your help. In fact, because of it, we’re introducing a fresh multiverse theory, confirming script suppositions, remembering we can’t sail without light, parting ways at the boat ride, climbing our big pole, eating fish every day, crying out for a minimart, changing out of boy mode inside of Luna mind, thinking clean dirty thoughts, stowing away Brett, chasing the stick off the porch, doing the Dew, questioning the feasibility of fireflies, and localizing a song based on nothing but vibes. Goodbye, my love.

  1. Shredder: Come along, you two.
    Rocksteady: Oh, all we ever do is go up and down, up and down!
    Krang: Sounds like the perfect job for a couple of yo-yos. I made a funny.

  2. When we got to the Wind's Nocture sequence in Lunar (it was my first time playing the game somewhere within the last 4 years), I thought to myself, "OMG is this game a musical? Please let this game be a musical".

    Sadly, the game was not a musical and this was the only full on theatrical musical theater-esqe moment in the game. However, seeing this sequence in context of the game and then imagining a sprinkling of 5 to 20 more of those (most animated musicals have around 6 or 7 songs, most stageshows have around 20) in the same way anime cutscenes are sprinkled in other rpgs, I can totally see how Lunar could have worked as a musical, and conversely, that Nomura was probably right in that turning Final Fantasy XV into a musical was not only very doable, but also likely would have been incredibly awesome. Nerds on the internet will call Nomura a hack and a weirdo for wanting to make XV a musical while also praising the Opera Scene in FFVI as the greatest scene in video game history when Normua just wanted to make a game full of opera scenes.
