Final Fantasy Versus XIII Jump Festa 08 Trailer Description

Neal · Dec 22 2007, 04:20 PM

FF&KH Blog have updated their blog again with the Final Fantasy Versus XIII Jump Festa Trailer impressions/descriptions. Kanae is writing from memory, so some details may be incorrect or missing, she says. The google translation is also fairly bad and hard to interpret, but we're working on getting a proper translation soon. Until then, here is everything I think I an understand from it but it should by no means be taken as true until we get a proper translation from somewhere!

Footage from the CLOUD DVD Trailer is cut in.
New footage as well as old.
No voice acting.

The Radio conversation in The Prince's car (cut from the CLOUD DVD trailer) speaks of an ending cold war.
The Prince sees the "Skirt Girl". [See characters page]
"Large" men in black suits are sat around a long table in a "Silver Cathedral" discussing the cold war/current events. (?)
The "Staircase" fight scene from previous trailers is shown. When The Prince walks back inside (At the end of the CLOUD DVD Trailer) he is "ambushed" by the White Cloaked man.
The city changes to daytime in which it seems more medieval (?)
The "Skirt Girl", who seems to be the heroine, is seen having a conversation with The Shotgun Guy while walking down the street.
After their brief conversation the two new characters appear. One of them is rather large (Kanae refers his size to "Mr. 33cm" from Final Fantasy XIII) and another who is dressed much like one of the Turks from Final Fantasy VII.
The Shotgun Guy laughs mockingly at them. (?)
The Prince's car is shown driving through the "wilderness"? Perhaps the baron desert area Nomura has spoken of.

*I can't understand this part of the translation*

« Wilderness scene of the car again.
車をとめて金髪の青年と主人公が降りてくる。 The car over when young and blond heroine Falls.
主人公は車の運転席である右側、青年は左側から降りてきます。 The main character is the right of the driver's seat of the car, the young man is descended from the left side.
青年は常に肩に銃をのせてます。 Youth is always strict gun shoulder.
道の先が水没しており、進めない様子。 Information is flooding the road and not go on air.
水没した道路、そしてその先の道を眺める二人。 Submerged roads, and the two look at the way forward.
（二人とも「途方にくれる」というより、その情景をじっくり見ているような感じでした） (Both "preposterous to me," rather than the scene he sees a good feeling did) »

All the characters appear to be in the car with The Prince.
A continuation of the "White Robed Man" confrontation scene.
The long table discussion scene is also continued to show another man entering, causing everyone in the room to look over and stop talking (?)
The scene of The Prince fighting the soldiers is continued.
A building is destroyed (?) reminds Kanae of Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children.
A scene between the Skirt Girl and The Prince is shown. Kanae is not sure if they behave like best friends or lovers.
Blue and Red symbols appear behind The Prince and the Skirt Girl respectively.
They look angry at each other, the Skirt Girl unsheathes a sword, the camera pans to her face to show her purple eyes and the Final Fantasy Versus XIII logo is shown, along with a Shakespeare quote shortly after.

PLEASE <3

Sundance Kid · Dec 22 2007, 07:11 PM

Suhweet this is getting more interesting
Thanks for that Dante
I can't wait to see this trailer
Which will probably be in a year

Cilvia · Dec 22 2007, 08:12 PM

that means, the skirt girl is a friend of prince?
not enemy?

Neal · Dec 22 2007, 08:14 PM

Apparently so. Like I said we still need a human translation before making any assumptions

My attempt at the confusing Japanese :

車をとめて金髪の青年と主人公が降りてくる。
Stopping the car, the youth and the fair-haired protagonist get off.

主人公は車の運転席である右側、青年は左側から降りてきます。
The protagonist sits at the right side of the driver's seat , but he gets off from the left side.

青年は常に肩に銃をのせてます。
The youth firmly keeps the gun in the shoulder.

道の先が水没しており、進めない様子。
The tip of the road has submerged, the people can not advance.

水没した道路、そしてその先の道を眺める二人。
Two people watch the road ahead that submerges in water.

[二人とも「途方にくれる」というより、その情景をじっくり見ているような感じでした]
[Rather than despearity, the atmosphere was more of looking deep into the scene.]

what does it mean? whats going on in these quotes?

Neal · Dec 22 2007, 11:13 PM

Read the first post, it's not all that difficult to work out the connection between what she translated and what I couldn't understand a machine translation of.

S-r-ex · Dec 22 2007, 11:14 PM

But what does the radio actually say? It'll leak onto the web soon, right? It did mention the prince's name, so why wasn't this leaked right away?

Neal · Dec 22 2007, 11:17 PM

I believe it's cut in this trailer. Nomura did say that character details are subject to change, so maybe he has a change in mind or something.
