The latest issue of Shonen Jump reveals an amusing new character in Square Enix’s upcoming Final Fantasy XIII, an afro-donning, dual pistol wielding man whose hair is apparently large enough to serve as living space for his pet chibi chocobo: サッズ・カッツロイ / Sazh Katzroy.
The full sized scan from the magazine is below:
Not much in the way of details are given, but it is apparent that the dual pistols he carries will probably be his main weapon type in the game, and he does have a chibi chocobo that he carries around with him.
The magazine suggests that the chocobo, Hina, might be carried around in the unnamed character’s hair, which definitely does seem large enough for the task.
Above are Final Fantasy XIII’s more traditionally designed characters. Perhaps Sazh looks somewhat out of place?
A response to the new character design:
this is cool, we need more black people to represent in the anime/game verse 😉
I’m sure he will be a good char in this game. (I hope)
O and those who say all japs dont like blacks r just as closed minded as thier statement. This is not the 1st time thier was a black character in ff series
There r some black ppl in japan like any other race that could bw possible to live thier. Met one. And i live in japan.
Oh Gawz the afroz burns my eyes…
