Here's some more screenshots and scans of the new FFXIII character, Hope Estheim. It would appear that he and the female character Vanille are friends. They're no Matt and Kim, but one can hope that there's some of that extra special pew-pew-qq inducing attack methods that they can do. Also, he has mommy issues, if only because it's all Snow's fault. What a guy.
