FF Weekly: December 3rd Remember When...


International Ninja Day is two days from now, on December 5, and to celebrate we’d like to introduce a few ninja characters from FINAL FANTASY games. Let’s dive right in!

Edge (FFIV)

The first prince of Eblan, a kingdom ruled by a ninja clan, and a ninja himself who has inherited secret ninjutsu techniques. After Eblan is devastated by Rubicante, the Autarch of Flame, Edge tries to take revenge on the fiend and fails. He is in bad shape when he meets Cecil’s party, but pledges to join them in their quest to recapture the elemental crystals!


Yuffie (FFVII)

This ninja, a type of warrior unique to her homeland of Wutai, wields a massive shuriken and employs various ninja arts in battle! Yuffie is obsessed with collecting valuables to restore her homeland and forces her way into Cloud’s team in order to obtain Materia, but joins the fight to protect the Planet over the course of the party’s journey.


Yugiri (FFXIV)

A shinobi in service to the Far Eastern land of Doma, Yugiri took part in the nation's failed rebellion against the Garlean Empire. When all was lost, her liege bade her take to the sea, along with many of Doma's people, and seek sanctuary in the western lands of Eorzea. Her calm, collected demeanor belies a burning desire to face the imperials in battle once more, and redeem the failures of her past.

And let’s not forget the ninja job that’s available as an upgrade for the thief class in FFI and the ninja jobs in FFIII, FFV, and many other FINAL FANTASY titles. FINAL FANTASY is a great way to celebrate International Ninja Day!
