    Iifa

    Vaan - "Hey, you!"
    Penelo - "Yeah, you! The one reading this sig at this very moment!"
    Vaan - "Interested in playing FFXII International Zodiac Job system?"
    Ashe - "But you have no knowledge of the Japanese language?"
    Fran - "....We could help...."
    Balthier - "That's right, Fran! Just click on Crossblades' thread on the very bottom of this signature and it will show you all license grid translations, magicks and tecks locations, and other changes that were made!"
    Basch - "Don't forget though. Swap Magic is needed to play this game if you don't own a japanese PS2."
    Vaan - "Also remember that if you played the original, you'll have an easier time playing the international version. We hope you enjoy the International Zodiac Job System experience. See ya then!"

    Its Iifa in the american version. Thats what the Debate is over, even though its rather one sided. I say Lifa out of habit, but meh, Yggrasil is still better.

    Huh, I always just assumed it was the Lifa tree. Interesting. Is there any significance to "Iifa," or is it simply a name?

    It's just a name.

    May I ask what led you to think it was "Lifa"? It's such a bizarre conclusion to reach, especially considering how prevalent it is.

    Well, I can't say I'm exactly good at paying attention to little details, and the i did look an awful lot like an l. I didn't notice the fact that every area began with a capital letter, but that one didn't. Plus, it just makes sense that it would be the "Life" tree or something similar, whereas iifa has no meaning at all.

    The Iifa tree will always be the Lifa tree to me. Screw facts.
