    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 condensed version without any member comments/posts, follow this link.

      I can't decide whether I would prefer to be locked in a room with Tidus or Jecht.

      If I remembered from my research, Barret's character design was inspired by Mr. T. He would make a great rapper hands down!

      Cutest Male

      The Nominees
      Gau - FFVI · Hope Estheim - FFXIII · Laguna Loire - FFVIII · Tidus - FFX · Vivi Ornitier - FFIX · Zidane Tribal - FFIX

      Please give a warm welcome to the presenters of this award...
      Ashe & Penelo




      Ten minutes after presenters are expected to arrive with the award....

      Ashe: I apologise, denizens of Final Fantasy for my tardiness here tonight, but I had important business to attend to with Al-Cid Margrace regarding the creature rights abuses act. Apparently, Slavens are now a protected species, so Vaan, no more tanned hides for you I’m afraid!

      Slight ripple of laughter from audience.

      Ashe: As for the whereabouts of my partner, Penelo, I cannot say. I am sure you will all feel sympathetic for dear Penelo, she has gotten into the wrong crowd and the Judge Magisters believe that she is now part of a dangerous organisation known as the Mafia. While these are dark days for Ivalice, let us not dwell on this and instead focus on the awards this evening. I myself have been around several very attractive men, Balthier being just one of them. However, what defines cuteness? Hope Estheim, ladies and gentlemen, perhaps is the epitome of cuteness! Having already modelled for Prada and having that cute, feminine charm, Hope could very well be a winner - and what of Tidus? I hear that Judge Drace has a particular fondness for Tidus and his lovely Spira tan while Laguna Loire is a sexy hunk with a cute side.

      Wolf whistles from audience.

      Ashe: Oh, Rikku! Stop it, you little animal! We also have Vivi, whose self-doubt and yearning for friendship definitely makes him a contender, while some of the furries in the audience feel Zidane’s tail is the closest they're going to get to living out their cute, kinky fantasies. But that is enough speeches from me. Having already met with Al-Cid I feel like my tongue has already been rammed down my throat, I should probably drink a potion to make my throat better. Anyway, the golden envelope is...

      Seconds pass as Ashe frantically searches for envelope, hushed voices in audience

      Ashe: This cannot be happening. This is more embarrassing than believing Ondore’s lies!

      Penelo: Aha! My nefarious deeds have succeeded once again! First escaping lynch in Dalmasca, now this! "Oh boy," everyone says to Penelo, "you're too boring to be a main character.” Well, ha ha ha! I get the last laugh! Everyone is expecting to know the winner of Cutest Male, no? But they'll only know if you, Ashe, give me half the worth of your kingdom!

      Ashe: But what do you have against me!?

      Penelo: Simply that you're above me in the party select screen. I have an immense hatred of being last and being at the bottom really sucks. Now hand it over!

      Ashe: Well... *sigh* I guess I have no choice... here....

      Ashe happens to be carrying 12,100,400 gil, and hands it over!

      Penelo: Now thank you for that. Gee. This is heavy... don’t know how Vaan carries all that loot plus equipment plus gil around... sheesh...

      Penelo leaves.

      Ashe: Sorry for the delay everyone. The winner of cutest male is...

      Quina Quen: I was so delighted when Award Chocobo asked me to do the award for Tastiest Food/Meal. It was an honor for me and I did not want to disappoint him. I have reviewed all the contestants and to make sure it was accurate I had a second helping of each. Here is my review for your enjoyment.

      Flan



      Flan is a delicacy that is usually served for dessert. I really appreciate dessert since getting through a big dinner can really leave me hungry. This one was pretty good but a little too sweet. Maybe served on top of a deep fried frog would make it better.

      Limabean



      I have eaten a lot of beans. More than there are feathers on a chocobo. These beans are green like frogs which I appreciate. They are good as a snack on the go but if I was served these as a meal I would be offended and would probably end up eating the wait staff.

      Fufu



      This may not look very good but it has everything I would need. It is savory and hearty and the best thing is that you can eat it with your hands. I find this most effective since it cuts out the middle man. Plus my fork is usually used for fighting monsters trying to steal my food.

      Quesadilla Crepe



      This savory crepe blends flavors from multiple regions. This is something I appreciate because I am currently in mixed-heritage relationship. I thought this would taste more like a taco than it did. I liked it but in the end it only made me want a taco.

      Ricotta



      Like every intelligent thing that ever lived, I love cheese. Ricotta goes best when filling a pasta or bread and I have not really had it plain. After several hand fulls I can say that I am hooked. My next adventure is to try a ricotta filled frog. It would probably be my dream come true.

      Romaine Heart lettuce



      I stopped eating leaves after that time I ate poison oak. Plus there is no sport in trying to catch a tree for your dinner. I did try these for this event but I did not like them. Maybe it would have been better in a salad with some bacon, cheese, frog legs, and a whole lot of creamy dressing.

      Raita



      This item is considered a dip and goes best when you have something to dip in it. I will give you one guess what I used to dip. That's right, frogs! I can not believe you all know me so well. It is like you are all my best friends. Any way, this was delicious and I went through 15 frogs before I got to the bottom of the bowl.

      Tofu Lobster



      I will have to say that this is an odd combination even for me and I was surprised to find it on the list. After trying 5 or 6 helpings (had to be sure) I can say that it is pretty good. I guess lobster is like frogs since anything goes well with it.

      Award Chocobo: Psst! Quina! You're supposed to talk about the nominees for Sexiest Female! Fran, Lightning, Lulu, Quistis, Rikku, Rinoa, Rydia and Tifa!

      Quina: I just did! You not listening!? The winner is...
