Final Fantasy vs Dead or Alive II

Monty Oum is not one to disappoint. After last years stellar Dead Fantasy I where the babes from Dead or Alive and Final Fantasy squared off against each other fans all over have been left salivating for more. Finally, more has come.

Watch the video below after reading a few prefaced words from Monty himself...

Greetings friends, finally back again. Sorry it's a bit later than I promised, but hopefully my quick patches were able to bring this to you faster with minimal errors. First off I'd like to thank an online colleague Firia (firia.deviantart.com) for pointing me towards the soundtracks that was the founding inspriation for this sequence. I still remember that night when these images came to me. The course this epsiode was to take was serious destiny.

The first thing that comes to mind about the production of this vid is how much I wanted to give you the viewer more. I've described it heartfully many times as "bang for buck" or "giving the viewer their money's worth." What's that you say? "Oh silly Monty, why worry about giving me my money's worth for something that totally free? You so crazy!" Wellllll, I find it funny these days, how it seems that free still isn't quite free enough anymore, things like time and attention is a value that's hard to give up to just anything. And just as I learned (with Haloid) that making a good movie isn't enough for the viewer, but also making a good movie that they want. The relationship between filmaker and viewer of what you want and what I want to give you. One could hope someday I'll be in the position to make that video game motion picture that fully pays tribute to what the fans wish for while making the reasonable comprises of established filmaking.

You should know that I wasn't much a fan of Dead Fantasy 1. Not that I'm not proud of some moments, but in the listed episodes of this series it was the one I wanted to do the least. But obviously the only one that could come first because of what it established. When that one was done an over with, really the fight was only beginning. It should also be mentioned that this episode wasn't meant to happen, the original plan was for Tifa to show up and split them up into the three respective pairs following with Dead Fantasy II begin Yuna Vs Kasumi, Dead Fantasy III Tifa Vs Hitomi, Dead Fantasy IV beign Rikku VS Ayane. But to to the immense response of how much you all were looking forward to an even fight between the two teams, it wouldn't have been fair to the viewer to take something away just as soon as it was introduced. I thoroughly glad I opted to go this route, it just goes to show that you really can't be certain about what you do without considering who it is you making this for.
