Final Fantasy Games - Trivia & Easter Eggs - ProtoSnake - 12-25-2015

Brother's gloves, strongly resemble Jotaro Kujo's Stand "Star Platinum's" gloves from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.[Image: latest?cb=20130803222701&path-prefix=fr][Image: brother.jpg]

I wonder if there's some other meaning behind that exact type of glove, since Jin from Tekken also has those.

I also read on a wiki page that Jotaro Kujo was modeled after Clint Eastwood. I know nothing about the manga, anime, games, etc. But, if you can look into it and can find a way to turn it into a trivia, feel free to take it.

As a JoJo fan myself I can confirm it. Jotaro's personality and mannerisms are based on Clint Eastwood's. In the final chapter of part 3, Jotaro himself acknowledges this by saying something among the lines of: If this was a western movie, i would say: c'mon! Drawn your weapon! Let's see who it's the fastest gun in the west!

BTW, Kakariko Kid: if you love yourself enough you should watch/read the source material, trust me, it's good for your soul.

Now, as for this trivia in particular... I do not think it is a JoJo reference at all. This is Final Fantasy that we are talking about. This is the same series that brought us things such as Final Fantasy 15: The Boy Band and FF10-2: Charlie's Angels, among other bizarre desing choices. So with all due honesty I don't think this is JoJo related.

If this is confirmed to be a JOJO reference by one of the developers then I'm going to believe it.

I'd say so. Jojo Part 3: Stardust Crusaders ran from 1989 to 1992, and Tekken came out in 1994. Part 3 was by far the most popular of the Jojo stories and influenced a lot of stuff in future anime/manga stuff. Even some stuff in the west took inspiration from it.

I have yet to see anything that predates Star Platnium's design, as far as the gloves go.

The work of mine that I really want people to see is, of course, Midgar. I had the image of a pizza in mind when I designed that city, and I really like how it turned out.

According to game's art director Yūsuke Naora, he stated that he really wanted people to see his work on Midgar. He was thinking of a pizza in his head while he was designing the city, he also really liked how it turned out.

After Cloud escape from Shinra troops by train, there's a small dialogue of Barret talking to Cloud about the upper plate of Midgar looks like a pizza. Referencing Naora's inspiration. Even the name of the theme 'Underneath the Rotting Pizza' is a reference to the Midgar's design.
