I submitted this as my final in high school for Japanese, so all the voices are done by me. To all you native speakers - please excuse my awkward intonations. :)


Music from FFV and FFT, sound effects from various Genesis games.


P.S - Sorry, I don't intend to make this into a series. I'd rather not continue something I feel is complete.
Also, for those of you interested, Pensuke's victory cheer is "Yahho, watashi wa kattaze~!"


FAQ's:


1) What grade did you get for this?
- I recieved maximum credit for the final and aced the class.


2) How long did this take you?
- The project took about 2-3 weeks, with breaks only for eating, sleeping, and school, so it was actually a good many hours. I actually couldn't finish by the end of the semester, and had to get a deadline extension.


3) How did you do all those voices?
- Sound Forge was used to alter some of the voices. There is no way I could make my voice as low as Ramuh's or as warbly as Cid's. Others like Ryu-sensei's were attained through raw, painful effort.


4) What kind of class makes you do these things for a final?!
- The original assignment was to present an oral autobiography. I requested special permission to make a movie. My teacher isn't anything like the one depicted in this title - she's actually a good-natured woman.


5) Will you make a game of this?
- I might. It's looking pretty bleak, though. If I do produce one, it'd probably be in the fashion of FF Tactics (or FFV) and follow Pensuke to Sabaku University. Go Sabotenders~!


6) Why don't you make a sequel of this?
- I've seen enough titles go bad because the producers made sequels to please the crowd. Games, on the other hand, are a different story.


7) Can you teach me Japanese?
- Nope; I'm a student, not a teacher. If you're desperate enough, you can try looking for free online lessons or something. They're bound to be there.

What a terrific animation, especially given that this is a high school final project. The voices are all well done, distinct enough per character for us to easily separate them and have a lot of character. The plot is short and cute and to the point. I sincerely hope you went on to do something with animations, but if not, I hope you look back at this 20 year old animation with fondness.

Wow, getting Aced in RPG? :3
Watching this movie making me wanna play Final Fantasy games! ^w^

So much fun to watch this back 2 decades later and it still be as fun as the first time. Great animation.

I remember watching this 20 years ago not understanding a word but being absolutely amazed by how cool it was

Today marks 20 years since a group of Final Fantasy students passed the test with an A-plus, how quickly these youngsters are growing up.
