    Oh, come on. All the people (in FFIX and FFX's artwork at least) looked EXACTLY the same. If I was forced into it, I'd say one of the earlier game art because it's evident he's got increasingly worse after... well, after IV, at least.

    Which FF Character Are You?
    :magus: Long, funny-coloured hair? Check. Bad choice of clothing? Check. Good/Bad complex? Check. Hmm... they're right. I AM Kuja.

    No, they don't. FFIX's characters in particular all look highly unique. Please look again.

    Four had some particularly awesome Amano-ness, I like Rydia, FuSoYa, and Cain personally.

    After going to the site ~SapphireStar~ posted I saw some amazing things I've never seen before, that weren't in his book. I now can't choose between the games. However, this picture had quite an effect on me:


    Look at how dark and pretty the colors are. Why that site said "Lenne and Shuyin" is beyond me, because it is obviously Yuna and Tidus, from her nightmare. I like how it looks all misty around them. Plus, Vegnagun looks even more badass

    If Steiner and Vivi look exactly the same I must be one blind fellow.

    I'm not familiar with his work from all of the games, but from what I've seen so far, I liked VI the best. Don't hate on me too much, but ... I really didn't like his work from IX that much...

    no matter how important something might be (ie. a giant meteor is in the sky and threatening the planet) you can always just stop in at the Golden Saucer and gamble on some dodos running around a track.

    I liked Amano's work in FFII the best. My least favorite would be a tie between FFIV and VI.

    I like the FFXI art a lot. There's tons going on, but there's also a lot of technical detail. It also really emphasizes the who massivity of the game. The point of the game is not to follow the adventures of a lone band of emo kids as they have cinematic FMVs, it's to band together with gazillions of other adventurers from all over the place.

    I'd say VI and III- as was already mentioned, his character designs for VI were amazing, and I love how the menu pictures of each character were totally Amano. Especially the picture of Celes that her menu picture is based off of- I just love that one. Although they're all awesome. And I love how a majority of the male characters have flat tops.
    For III, I just love the big landscapes with the four youths relatively small in the foreground- or midground- or whatever you call it. That one with the four youths sitting on a hill and then far away you see the Sylx tower (I think thats what it is)- that picture is amazing. It really conveys that sense of adventure, and the sense of a long journey. And I love how (and this is common in Amano art) the four youths look all ragtag and kinda rugged. In all of his FF work, I just love how the clothes seem worn and it really seems like that's the person's only outfit.
