Mike and Remy are playing every Final Fantasy game in the franchise. Guess what? It’s a whole dang podcast. There’s wild head canon, time loops, hypothetical movie fan casts, and sometimes silly games. It’s not the first Final Fantasy podcast, it’s the first EVER Final Fantasy podcast called Final Fancast.
You can listen if you want. No pressure. New episodes every first and third Friday.
The dragon is crying. Porom is a parentified child. Edge is spotted lurking in the bushes wearing a t-shirt that says “sicko” and rubbing his hands together.
We really lay into Kain this time, folks. We really let him have it.
Final Fantasy IV: The After Years continues with “Edge’s Tale: The Pulse of Babil.” Also we talk about Crystal Chronicles for like 10 minutes.
Name a more iconic team of four ninjas. Oh. Yeah, I guess the Ninja Turtles. Well. Here are four other ninjas. They aren’t turtles. One of them is a kite sort of.
We go to a brothel for plot reasons. Our invitations to the Hall of Prayer meeting seem to have been misplaced. We become a toad also for plot reasons. We steal some vegetables — not for plot reasons, though. Just for the thrill of it.
So yeah. That’s Edge’s Tale, basically.
Maybe every Final Fantasy is actually just a story told by that one guy at the bar in Troia. Probably not, but there’s still probably enough meat on that bone for a good 20 minute YouTube theory video.
Sometimes you get stuck with a timeloop curse. Sometimes you gotta replay part of the game. Spoiler alert: sometimes you have to do it again later. I hope you like cold opens, mid-credits scenes, and extra dramatic goofiness. I was up way too late finishing up this one and I’m very tired now. (Episode 27, by the way – just in case you’re trying to remember why the mid-credits beginning bit sounds familiar.) Anyway, this time we talk about Final Fantasy IV: The After Years – Palom’s Tale.
Special thanks to Remy’s wife for lending her vocal talents for this episode. Special thanks to Unei for the coffees.
We asked our listeners for Mike-stumpers and they sure delivered. Now let’s barrage Mike with questions about the first four Final Fantasy games and see what happens.
Thanks so much to everyone who sent in questions!
