It’s still “an adventure animation series primarily aimed at 8-13-year-old kids and family audiences”
Roughly a year ago, it was announced that French animation studio Cyber Group Studioswas deep into aFinal Fantasy IXanimated TV series. Now,according to Animation Magazine, it’ll be debuting soon, in the hopes to be sold to a distributor.
Cyber Group will be attending the Licensing Expo in Las Vegas from May 24-26, in a bid to sell the show. It’s here that we’ll likely see the first screens or maybe even a trailer, as well as info on some of the characters (and potential newcomers). In 2021, the company noted that “for those who [don’t] knowFinal Fantasy IX, this will be an [introduction]…and for the many who [do], this will immerse them in a universe they’ll love.”
At the moment, details are slim. The McFire Family, Gigantosaurus, and PressStart projects were all shown off: but we’re waiting to seeFinal Fantasy IXat a later date. If you want to stew over what it could look like and the subject matter it could entail,you can peruse Cyber Group’s catalog here.
To be clear, I don’t think you should expect the moon here — or an epic series with adult themes. We already know it’s aimed at kids, but their entire catalog is predicated on family viewing. As someone who does watch cartoons with their kid, I just hope it’s nearly as good asSpidey and His Amazing Friends.
