    Final Fantasy 25th Anniversary Ciddies
    Final Fantasy Awards... with style!

    As part of the Final Fantasy 25th Anniversary celebrations, Eyes on Final Fantasy decided to get some of the best members and artists to work together to create an awards event unlike anything you've seen before! This wasn't just a standard awards event where you vote and then someday someone tells you who won, and that's that... no, this event was created as an elaborate show within the Final Fantasy 'multiverse', and it's our delight to present the results to you. Please, follow the below links to find out who won what award, who sang what newly-created song while playing their guitar, who saves the day and more!

    This event was created with the intention of saying a massive thankyou to Square-Enix and Final Fantasy. From the fans - all of us!

    If you want the full version, including posts by members and Award Creatures, follow this link.
    If you want the condensed version without any member comments/posts, follow this link.

      Raijin: Heya, everyone! Thanks for being here for the Ciddies celebrating the 25th anniversary of Final Fantasy! It's a pretty big deal, ya know?

      Fujin: AFFIRMATIVE.

      Raijin: Tonight we've been chosen to present a Ciddie to the characater you believe has the best dialogue! There are lots of great characters, ya know? Let's get to it! We've even got some voice clips from them to put over the speakers, ya know?

      Fujin: BALTHIER.

      Raijin: The smooth talking sky pirate from Ivalice. We all know who the REAL leading man is, ya know?

      Voice Clip: "Your mistakes were twofold, I'm afraid. You sprung your trap without looking to see if the game you hunted was the one you'd snare, and you sold me short. I'm no thief; I'm a sky pirate."

      Fujin: BARRET.

      Raijin: He has the mouth of a sailor and sometimes an outfit to match, ya know?

      Fujin: !@#%*

      Voice Clip: "Wuddup, fool?! It's Barret! I AM the man! Oil, Cloud! I just found the biggest, damn oil field you ever seen! Surveyin's done, so I should be able to get out there and see Marlene soon. You let her know, alright Spiky?!"

      Fujin: CID.

      Raijin: Cid Highwind dreams of being the first man in space! There's more than one loud mouth in Final Fantasy 7, ya know?

      Voice Clip: "This's gonna be a big splash. Hold on to your drawers, an' don't piss in 'em!!"

      Fujin: KEFKA.

      Raijin: This is one crazy clown, ya know? I wouldn't wanna be in his posse....

      Fujin: AGREED.

      Voice Clip: "Life... Dreams... Hope... Where do they come from? And where do they go...? Such meaningless things... I'll destroy them all!"

      Fujin: SAZH.

      Raijin: The loving father and funny man of Final Fantasy 13! He's great with pistols. I wonder what it's like to have a bird in your head, ya know?

      Fujin: ...

      Voice Clip: "All this dampness is damp."

      Fujin: TELLAH.

      Raijin: He's a wise old man, but his age has made him forget some of his spells. He's passionate about the people close to him but he has a short temper! Hey, I know someone like that....

      Fujin kicks Raijin in the shin.

      Raijin: OUUUCHH!

      Voice Clip: "You spoony bard!"

      Fujin: TIDUS.

      Raijin: He's a nice guy with deep feelings about his father and he desires to return to Zanarkand. I like his fiery attitude and his touching moments, ya know?

      Voice Clip: "I hate you. I hated you so much. I always wished you'd be gone. But deep down, what I really wanted was just...your approval. For you to...tell me that I've grown strong. That's all I ever wanted."

      Fujin: YUNA.

      Raijin: She's a very sweet girl, ya know? Her best dialogue comes in times of hardship. Check out how she ends that first sentence, ya know?

      Voice Clip: "You say it's your story, but it's my story, too, you know? It would be so easy...to let my fate just carry me away...following this same path my whole life through. But I know...I can't. What I do, I do... with no regrets."

      Raijin: So there you have it guys! Those are your 8 finalists......Hang on a sec! Why isn't Seifer on this list, ya know!?

      Fujin: RAGE.

      Raijin: Ah, well, he's our winner, ya know? As for the Ciddie, well... the winner is...

      Cid is a good choice and all, but nothing can beat the music of hundreds of voices screaming in unison :<

      Best Voice

      The Nominees
      Auron - FFX · Balthier - FFXII · Caius Ballad - FFXIII-2 · Lightning - FFXIII · Sazh Katzroy - FFXIII · Snow Villiers - FFXIII · Wakka - FFX

      Please give a warm welcome to the presenter of this award...
      Garnet & Zidane




      Zidane and Garnet from Gaia IX walk together onstage to the podium for their speech on Best Voice.

      Zidane: The Gods started up the requirement for great, epic adventures within the Final Fantasy Multiverse a mere 25 years ago, and during the early years, voices in Final Fantasy worlds were largely unheard of.

      Garnet: Exactly, and voices in Final Fantasy had not started until the tenth legend - in 2001!

      Zidane: Since then, voices have been a feature in later Final Fantasy tales. We're here to present the award for Best Voice award!.

      Garnet: You're right. Isn't it horrible that the game we're both in didn't feature voices, Zidane?

      Zidane: I know! I bet your voice would be totally babe-alicious, Dagger!

      Garnet: *blushes* You would have a cute voice yourself, Zidane.

      Zidane: No way, mine would be bad ass and awesome.

      Garnet: But not as masculine as our first nominee from Final Fantasy X, Auron.

      Zidane: Puh-lease, Dagger! His voice is nothing compared to the smooth voice of Ivalice's sky pirate, Balthier. If I had a voice, mine would sound just like his! Except much more sexier. *nudges Garnet*

      Garnet: Zidane, please. Anyway, our next nominee is from Gran Pulse - Caius Ballad. He has a very nice voice from what I've heard.

      Zidane: But not nicer than our next nominee Lightning, who has one of the sexiest voices in the FF Multiverse. I could listen to her all day.

      Garnet: What about mine?

      Zidane: Dagger, you don't have a voice!

      Garnet: I lost my voice at one point, yes, but I do have a voice.

      Zidane: In my head, you have the best voice, my dear.

      Garnet: Moving along, our next nominee is Sazh Katzroy.

      Zidane: Now there's a voice that's smooth and easy on the ears. I gotta love me a strong, soulful voice. He and our following nominee are from the same world. Next up is Snow Villiers. I've got one word to say about him.

      Garnet: Please do share with us, Zidane.[/B]

      Zidane: Why certainly, Dagger. *clears throat* STEELGUARD!

      Garnet: *facepalms* And finally, our last nominee is Wakka from Spira.

      Zidane: What a great cast of nominees for Best Voice! I can't wait to find out who wins!

      Garnet: Neither can I. I have the envelope right here with me, so let's see who won?

      Garnet & Zidane: And the winner goes to...
