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.

Famous quotes containing the word characters:
“Though they be mad and dead as nails,
Heads of the characters hammer through daisies;
Break in the sun till the sun breaks down,
And death shall have no dominion.”

“The business of a novelist is, in my opinion, to create characters first and foremost, and then to set them in the snarl of the human currents of his time, so that there results an accurate permanent record of a phase of human history.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
“We are like travellers using the cinders of a volcano to roast their eggs. Whilst we see that it always stands ready to clothe what we would say, we cannot avoid the question whether the characters are not significant of themselves.”
