Anime series Pop Team Epic keeps making references to Final🌱 Fantasy 14, but the producers wanted to make a jo🌱ke so obscure even the developers thought it was too much.

If you're not familiar with Pop Team Epic, each episode is basically a collection of surrealist skits and rapidfire jokes - imagine if WarioWare was an animated series, and you've probably got a decent idea of what to expect. Someone on staff is clearly a fan of Final Fantasy 14, because the recently-ended second season of the show keeps making absurdly specific references to the critically acclaimed☂ MMORPG.

Take this one for example. We see the Pop Team Epic leads enter a pitch-perfect recreation of the FF14 intro, settling in for a grand adventu☂re across an epic fantasy world - until they find the Manderville Gold Saucer and spend so much time in the game's robust mahjong tournaments that ܫthey start ignoring linkpearl calls from Minfillia back at the Waking Sands.

After a successful gu💜ess, we go straight into a reference to the , which - okay, look, I really don't ha🐲ve the space to explain twinning.mp4 here. Just trust me that referencing it is the mark of a true-blue FF14 fan.

As you might have guessed from all the highly specific references and music use, Square Enix has had some involvement in signi🌌ng off on these skits, but as revealed in the latest Final Fantasy 14 live letter, there was one idea that was too obscure for the devs to agree to - an appea🌼rance from the developers themselves.

In the rejected skit, which was shown as part of today's FF14 live letter broadcast, the anime characters appear as director and producer Naoki Yoshida and community manager Toshio Murou🐠chi exactly as they do in a typical live letter to announce an e❀ntirely fake new job called the Sky Mage.

Yoshida (the actual person, not the cartoon one) rejected the idea because, as translated by fan♉s in the , "that's NOT FF14! My appearance has nothing🐭 to do with the game!" It seems Yoshida would really prefer your cross-media FF14 references to stick to the game itself.
