Kefka looks scarier than ever in new Dissidia art

One didn't think that Kefka, the insane clown-like villain with the distinctive laugh from Final Fantasy VI, could get any creepier. But he just totally did in the latest Dissida art of him, as revealed by Shonen Jump -- look at the way he's ogling at poor Terra/Tina. She ain't no damsel in distress though; her EX mode named "Trance" is looking pretty powerful. Take a look at the full scan over at PSPHyper.

Kefka may actually be more ruthless than the Joker. He did poison an entire city/kingdom.

Well I wouldn't put that past the Joker.

Awesome, these two look completely awesome
now we just need them to show Cloud and Sephiroth.
why is it that FF7 characters are the last being shown?

Most likely because they are the ones most people want to see the most.

For some reason I think that the Final Fanasy VII characters will be revealed towards the middle of November.

The characters were already revealed at TGS. Dunno why they're still being so "mysterious" about it.

They have shown Sephiroth. Cloud is the last.

Now if the game actually looked like this art looks, I'd be soo on board. But the only place we'll see this (at best) is in the manual, I'm guessing.

Can't wait to kill Aeris, that worthless hoe-bag.

I played through the whole game with Aeris. I loved her healing ability. Naturally, her death affected me more because I lost the best member of my party. I'll not have you call her a worthless hoe bag.

.....Okay, well, after Crisis Core I'm going to agree with you, but isn't she 12 or 13 in Crisis Core? So I guess she has an excuse.

Love FF6, it was my favorite(probably because it was the first one I played). Anywho, I hope that if FF6 gets remade, it won't be for the DS. Dont get me wrong, the DS games, beautiful looking, but FF6 deserves an overhall worthy of the artwork here. Awesome looking. Hope this Dissidia thing will be cool too.

This art is terrible. Tetsuya Nomura defiles everything he touches.

I so freakin' prefer Nomura's art over Amano's...

rikki said...

I dunno, I hate to defend Nomura, but this is the least-bad artwork the guy's ever done. The poses are still static/clumsy, the character designs are still horrendously overcomplicated zazz (that's Amano's fault anyway)

...but he actually made Kefka creepy and ugly, which surprised the hell out of me. I honestly didn't think he was capable of drawing non-prettyboys.

Actually this is old art :P. If anyone wants to see sephiroth and cloud here's the pic:

Geez, Kefka's got a huge grin. It's like Joker gave him some beauty tips and sent him to a circus to steal some clown/jester outfits, sew them together, shoot the circus ostrich, and stick his feathers on his outfit.
