I believe it is roughly under-appreciated how humorous Tetsuya Nomura is. Lately his social media presence has develop into reasonably mysterious, in that he will simply roughly drop some roughly cryptic tease on Twitter after which now not provide an explanation for himself. In spite of now not having published a unmarried drop of details about Kingdom Hearts 4 since its announcement 3 years in the past, Nomura hinted at some deeper lore concerning the sequence’ paopu fruit in an excessively nonchalant means. It is simply humorous at this level! And he is finished it once more, this time with a Magic the Accumulating card.
If you happen to did not know, Magic the Accumulating is getting a complete Ultimate Delusion themed set that may most likely unmarried handedly get many of us into Magic the Accumulating. The day gone by, an entire bunch of playing cards from the set have been published, together with some particular ones with fancy artwork. Unsurprisingly, everybody’s favorite long-haired, long-sworded Sephiroth is a card with two bits of artwork, one together with his common glance, the opposite his ultimate boss shape. It is that 2d one, “More secure Sephiroth”, that Nomura has commented on that has me, and lots of others, questioning if it is in reality a nod towards Ultimate Delusion 7 Remake 3 (or no matter it is known as).
“This time round, I drew Sephiroth on each the back and front facets of the cardboard. I in reality drew them in order that they’d sign up for up if positioned one on most sensible of the opposite, so in the event you arrange to get two of the similar card and line them up, you can see how the unique representation seemed,” Nomura defined. “There could also be a explanation why that the design for Sephiroth isn’t the same as the unique recreation, however I sadly can not proportion extra about that.”
After all you’ll be able to’t proportion extra about that, Nomura! When are you able to! Why even carry it up within the first position? I doubt most of the people would have even spotted, and now you are going to be fueling fan theories for the following two years. In case you do not know what More secure Sephiroth gave the impression of within the authentic Ultimate Delusion 7, his proper arm was once only a wing. On this new artwork, he has each hands and that wing.
What may just this imply? Perhaps it is to stay Cloud and co out of arm’s means (sorry)? Most commonly, I haven’t any clue, I am simply reasonably tickled by means of the truth that Nomura turns out to get a kick out of shedding feedback like those. Anyway, I am off to promote a few organs with the intention to have enough money a couple of booster containers of this set as a result of I do in reality need that Sephiroth card!
