Lux found them. Yay.
Edit: Here's a quick translation. Raws have been spoiler tag wrapped at the bottom of post to prevent post from getting entirely too obese.
More Edit: Xabin fixed the line I couldn't get:
"If you do it quick, everyone will calm down." is supposed to be "Everyone would calm down if you pulled your act together."

She's using the correct technique for a female SE character: knees turned inwards to enhance cuteness. Her priorities as a resistance fighter are well set.

And V-Jump and Famitsu Weekly seem to get leaked a few days before like clockwork for some reason.

Repuro looked more Asian in the trailer than in those scans. And Gado looks better too. His features seem more chiseled and they both look a bit more normal and much closer to Snow, Lightning, and the others' model quality. This must be a more complete version or something.
http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/finalfantasy/images/7/7d/Ff13azn1.jpg
Then there's them now. Even the lighting looks different. Then again, this may all just be angles and lack of HQ screens. Looking at her now, see looks very Latino/Hispanic to me.
As for the characters, I like all their designs really. They all look good in their own way. Gado has a kind of a wild yet casual look to him I like (I love those kicks). And his crazy hair is just that, crazy. It suits him to me now. Reburo... Lovely is all I can say. I just love the design. Whether that be because I like the outfit design, her, or am just a pervert, I like it. As for Marky, he seems cool enough. Pink suits him. He reminds me of Gippal, which is NOT a bad thing. Then there is everyone revealed already whom I also like but don't feel like explaining why.

Snow and Lightning back to back about to F**k your S**t up is brilliantly hardcore:wub:
And Cathryn's right
The chick doesn't look asian, or latino to me. I think she just looks white. Goggles looks to be the only one of possible asian decent. Wakka Ver: 2.0 looks Latino to me

Could someone please go look at the other Final Fantasy designs? Like X? Lesse here...Wakka....Lulu...or what about the holy VII? Vincent and Yuffie?
The reason the characters look like this has to do with the setting in which the game takes place. Setting is flashy and out there, thus...characters are flashy and out there! gasp!
I'm not saying I love the designs, but they're like how they are for a reason. This game is meant to be 'flashier' than Versus. And he is just the character designer, he hears from the video game developers what they want in a character, if I'm not wrong.
He isn't in the only one to blame.

I think the Garnet thing is those sleeve thingos she has.
And we had the names from Jump Festa, but we were just guessing which name went to which person. That, "Nora" and "Marky" are what we're really getting out of this article. XD
Not much, but it seems like Lightning is the one who's come in late to the group? Seems like Nora started without her. Hi, AVALANCHE? XD I doubt she's just tagging along as a mercenary, though. I want to know what reason she has for helping the people of Cocoon that isn't saving them..

This is my first time posting here. Yo!
I wanted to join this site so I could share a jpop song I wrote for Lightning of FFXIII (will do that later) The song will arranged for piano. I still have to play and record it using EAST WEST's PLAY Bos290 piano lib. *but I am busy with projects right now*
Here's my take on these new characters pretty sure I am right.
The three new characters are not full party members they probably show up during the game but there not actually part of your main party. There playable when they show up but don't think there new characters that you will level up etc. They won't be on SE's main page as party members. There will only be at max 6 main characters. There is four now there might be two more, not seven!
V-jump is on crack!
As for character designs, game developers always make important characters as flashy as possible so they stick out compared to all the other NPC's in the game^_- That includes baddies too.

Fuck. Doesn't she know that bra is supposed to wear under one's shirt? :bunwtf:
We should be surprised that she got the blasted thing on in the first place....it's like she took some scissors and said 'fuck it' and chopped it to bits.
We gotta have one 'whore' in a FF...keeps the balance.
Lightning looks great and Snow too. Eww, I hate those names :x
Yeah, Nomura said he didn't really want to keep with the weather names but when the boss man says 'yeah' and signs your checks....you gonna have to hop.
Ok, we all know the asain girl looks like a slut, but she's my slut! :wub:
Agreed, we officially have 3 FFXIII girls for H doujin fun time....
Why everyone talking negativly about the characters?
Because they look magnificently retarded...almost biblical in their conception.
They're so out of place with everyone that many of us can't make it blend with the well designed first four. You look at Snow and put him with the newer 3 characters and tell me you can take them seriously or tell that they're even part of the same world.
The R3 (the retarded 3) look like stock characters...plain and simple.
Goggles boy is just naruto reincarnated into a Final Fantasy pretty boy.
And is it just me or does Snow look more attractive in those scans :cunning:
So are these weird ass characters here to stay or what?
The Narutard...that's just painful....those are two tastes that don't belong together...
And yes, Snow is always delicious. And unfortunately it appears that those characters are part of our group....forever. :thunder crashes:

No, even 'Holy' VII had their characters FIT their world, even VIII, IX, X, hell way back to VI, V, IV, III, II and I (by the sketchy and crazily effeminate master designer Amano) fit their world.
FFXIII designs for the most part fit their world, from what we saw of Lightning, Snow, Sazh and Vanille (who's obviously more 'tribal' centered) fits. The R3 don't fit at all, not in the slightest, they appear as if they wandered from previous games or different series and just decided to stay.
Nomura is the character designer, he does get word from others to make changes and what not but it's mostly him. The designs from X were in joint work with celebrated character designer Shunya Yamashita and vXIII is getting help from an actual fashion designer for the costuming.
FFXIII is meant to be flashier, no one is disputing that fact, the problem most have is that these 3 character designs really...really suck.

Yes they are, but I don't remember them ever saying the characters would be main characters, if that's what you're saying. XD They just introduced them as having some role in the demo. You may be right about them being 'guest' type characters that leave at some point.
Maybe Snow breaks up Nora to go with Lightning? Or maybe they just hang around as 'ship crew' characters most of the time.

^ Because we know exactly how SE works. We should really probably stop pretending we do, guys. <_<
Also, I fail to see how Lulu fit with a tropical island climate or culture? I can't call any more weird design characters to mind, but I'm sure they're there. And we really haven't seen all that much of FFXIII's cultures at all. All we've seen are some railroads, a big panning shot of Pulse, and some shots of what's probably Cocoon. How many random non-prison-clothes citizens have we seen to compare our main characters to? Seems like zero.
We know almost nothing about the places the characters came from, including Vanille and the rest who 'reflect their world.' We don't know what that world is, bar some science fiction overtones to Cocoon and some wilderness overtones to Pulse.

Maybe if SE stops giving interviews, blog updates, and video-views people will stop pretending that they know what's going on in their offices. <_< Man, I miss the good ole days when we didn't have so much 'in-depth' video game coverage and when you did get an interview, it meant something......the wonderment is gone. LOL!
But you're absolutely right we don't know how they work at all or even if they are main characters, it appears that they are and so if I gotta be looking at these bastards for 60 hours. Then I'm going to complain. At the moment, they look far too all over the place to fit in with the group for long periods of time, so chances are that they are secondary characters. I would hope at least.
However, much like my brother told me last night and he's on your side. We haven't seen much of their world to judge at the moment, he feels that they don't particularly care about what's going on in that world so he doesn't care either.
As for X, Lulu's a black mage, she's tragic and goth but not in the traditional sense sorta fashion model-y sense, even still with her 'out-of-place' looks. You can still look at her fitting in with the rest of the crew without trouble; seeing that everyone in X had some crazily designed attire.
XIII doesn't have crazy designs (outside of the R3) so far, they seem to be made cosplay easy...
Gah...I don't know, all I know is that I don't particularly like the R3 at the moment....hopefully their looks give way to their personalties. Maybe they might be awesome and cool!

So you have these 3 characters that are from Nora and you think there going to be part of you party through the game? That would be one dumb ass game design....
Give these guys some credit they made FFXII after all. Most of the team was responsible for FFX too.
I remember FFXII demo it was just some area you ran around and fought, nothing more. I am wondering if FXIII is going to be deeper? It will probably be these characters with Snow and you fight a couple battles. Cool if it was actually playing an ingame sequence though.

They've gotten as much coverage as any character did at this stage after their initial announcement.
We're forgetting the Jump Festa trailer, they were in there enough for drawings to explode all over the internet, then the features in the last trailer and now places of prominence in the new scans, including mentions of their names.
Of course they're going to be main characters at this point. I never said they'd be playable, but they're almost guaranteed to be main. The fact that they work with Snow just makes me think it's very likely.

ahh cRap!! never mind the game characters are going to be like FFVI and focuse on those who resist this world there is going to be even more !! Characters!
So sayeth Motomu Toriyama. This isn't the FFXIII I thought this was going to be. I thought it was going to focus on a story that had to do with say 6 or 7 people but nope it's going to focus on ton of damn people that resist the world blaa ....

The two poorly designed characters there have never been announced as main party members. Only thing official so far is that they are in the same group as Snow.
There's no reason why these characters couldn't be like Jessie, Wedge and Biggs from Avalanche in FFVII. Or if you prefer their playable counterparts, like Blank, Cinna and Marcus from Tantalus in FF IX.

+1.
Just because they are playable doesn't mean they have to be main/major characters.
I beg to differ.
+10. For obvious reasons. That first one is awesome, mostly because she looks like someone I know... although I know it's not her since she hated Star Wars.
Ahh..everyone has guns..like in Wild Arms?

new girl's design is awful
also what in the world is the reason???
This.
I don't understand why they had to make these three new characters look so awful in comparison to the rest of the group.

I'm definitely calling goggles boy Marky Mark from now on.
Anyway great scans. My excitement is slowly building up.

Any guesses what the original weapons for the new character could be?

Feb 22 2009, 11:41 AM
guns............
Darkerthan_BLACK
Feb 22 2009, 12:59 PM
Not likely. No same weapon in ff has been given to two people. They are probably temp. weapons they get while escaping the prison.
Kätharina
Feb 22 2009, 02:23 PM
Reburo hasn't got the same gun as either two. She has what looks like either a Rifle or an Automatic Machine gun.
It's only Gadou & Marquis who have the same damn weapons, and I'm pretty sure Marquis gave his too a hostage on the bridge. So he most likely has his own unique weapon.
Darkerthan_BLACK
Feb 22 2009, 03:38 PM
Cathryn ur on the right note but even gadou should have a different weapon.maybe a heavy one.any guesses on the 4th guy.looks better than others .

Where did you put them, Cathy? I didn't notice either, lolz.
ya i tried to photoshop in the translations that I had to make it a bit more pleasing to the eye, but after two hours and only two lines successfully imported, i said forget it...
This is why I don't bother anymore. It's better to just bang it out in MS Paint and move on.

They look crap in paint. Cathryn's look awesome. How come you didnt post them on the front page, Cath?
Kätharina
Feb 22 2009, 04:57 PM
I didn't finish the second one, i only posted them in the Chatbox anyway, i didn't really think they where front page worthy considering Blank had translated them.

I can see why, as far as scanlations go, defiantly not worth the effort in erasing so much, it'll take forever to get clean images out of that. It's better with magazine images to just overlap and make sure the writing is visible over the original.
