Characters
Director Tetsuya Nomura has stated that the characters of Final Fantasy Versus XIII will be the most realistic and believable in the Final Fantasy series and they will talk and behave like people from the real world. Also, their personalities and mannerisms will be very realistic and unlike what one would normally expect from a Final Fantasy cast.
Jun Akiyama will be responsible for the portrayal of the characters in the Real-Time Events (RTEs) and their facial expressions and body mannerisms in the pre-rendered FMVs. The reason Jun Akiyama was chosen was due to his experience directing the event scenes in Final Fantasy XII. Tetsuya Nomura believes the main characters and supporting characters of Final Fantasy XII felt like real people rather than the anime archetypes one would normally associate with the Final Fantasy series.
