    I think the copies I have came from the same source.

    Does anyone want images of the ghostly Fayth?

    It says Yusuke Naora on them but i have no idea who that is.

    If you click on the pictures in the link theres a higher resolution and scroll down abit the human form of the fayth can be seen, I thought Shiva would have less clothes on but...

    On another topic for this thread, why doesnt yojimbo's fayth statue show diargo.
    Kefka's coming, look intimidating!

    I found the Fayth statues creepy, but in a good way. Reminded me of the art of H.R. Gieger, especially in Anima.

    My guess is Shiva's Fayth came from a cold climate and dressed appropriately.

    I have no idea about Yojimbo's dog. You think they would after including the hat. BTW, I've gotten complaints for calling the dog Daigoro and also for using the name Kogoro so I gave up and just call him Yojimbo's dog.

    Yusuke Naora is one of the game design guys at Square. He does a lot of concept art.

    I think Yojimbo's dog is Daigoro and Yuna's pet on X-2 Trainer's dressphere is Kogoro.

    There is a series of japanese movies - Lone Wolf and Cub - about a disgraced samurai named Yojimbo and his son Daigoro. Perhaps Square named the Aeon/ dog combination in honor of them. Yojimbo does use the samurai "look"

    Well, there's also Akira Kurosawa's Yojimbo, which is one of his many famous and lauded samurai films starring Toshiro Mifune. Although if that series featured characters with both names, seems like a more likely reference.

    Yojimbo means 'bodyguard', which makes sense as the aeon protects the summoner from harm. I think the Char designers should have spent more time on the fayths' human forms. Or at least changed the colour schemes on the random NPC's
