Can't stand shorts, but that's a fun mount.

I want that outfit in Jet Black.

Gimme please.

The male clothing and mount look pretty awesome. Here's hoping at one point they'll allow all 'region exclusive' items be for everyone.

This ... I'm not sure if it's the same design team or not, pretty sure it is but how do they get a fudging awesome spinny wheel flame mount thing designed for them and we get a friggin couch .... I know it's exclusive and all but that makes it even worse since they obviously put way better design aspects into all these region exclusives. Otherwise we really wouldn't care to get them, but since they are superior in design to the lackluster mounts we get .. I mean come on a couch mount ? A flying pea thing ? while I don't know what all goes into them aquiring their exclusives and we get our mounts with patches there is just a lack of innovation when it comes to what we are given even, the clothing designs

heh that mount thats unique way getting around eorzea :)

Eh, not a fan of these clothes but I could def use some part of it

NNNNNNNGGGHH!! I need that in my life like yesterday ago!! UGH This and the one outfit that "shall not be named" because people are weird... I NEED THEM NOW! ; ;

Putting better design aspects? You mean just putting design at all. Our couch is in game for ages as decor.

Haha The mount is pretty cool. I like the forehead jewel on the outfit too, I do wish we had more dainty head pieces ^^

Don't really like those costumes...feels like something out of those cheap mmos.
Too much design without purpose

It's what I'd call 'overstyling' and messy

...and we're still waiting for some of the older items to be made available to everybody and not just region exclusive. :(

LoL that mount looks ridiculous XD but I love the outfits. The long braid thing on the back of their tops remind me of Yuna's FFX-2 hair and I NEED IT. Hopefully we get this eventually! Though I wish the male shorts were cuter/skimpier ;/

It's all looks like a very typical korean/chinese MMO design - which is exactly the Chinese Servers demographic. Personally I think it's all ugly AF.

I really hope this comes to our servers. First region exclusive or cash shop item in general
That I like

The outfit for the female, I WANTS IT!!! It's soo cute and stylish - just the way I like it :)
Hopefully we can get these as well, however it's going to be awhile.
Let the waiting game commence....=____=

The set reminds me of the Thunder Brothers character from an earlier episode of InuYasha.

omg! Hellluuuuuu!

Hellluuuuuu

I would love that mount and the female outfit! Don't care as much for the male one. but the female one looks so edgy <3

id love that mount

I would love to have this mount. I thought they were going to do away with these region-exclusive items. For me, I really want the angel and demon sets. I wish these items, and the other exclusives, would be made available worldwide.

Come on Square, give it to us too, please!

Hiten (the elder brother) was loosely based on Nezha (imo) which this item's design is created from. Glad to find another Inuyasha fan here. :3

On-topic:

I just hope that the item made it here soon and our EU friends don't get left out again...

I don't believe it is. There's a lot less SE involvement in the CN/KR versions than people think.

We are still behind on alot of items, I reckon if those items were to be sold to us, it will be either late 2018 or 2019. We still dont have:

- Some of the Korean/Chinese exclusive bardings.
- Mounts like: the Red Fenrir.
- Outfits like: the Korean outfits, the Chinese emperor's outfit, the angel and devil outfit, the jersey that was released few weeks ago and now the new outfit that looks like something from Kingdom Hearts.

Since they released the Angel and Devil barding, one could assume that SE probably thought people would not like the outfits, so they decided to not sell us those outfits. We already know from the patch that either the fancy korean outfit or the chinese emperor outfit one of those two will be sold via the Mog Station on Tuesday. I personaly, think that this new chinese exclusive item set will be used for the 2018 promotion.

PS: What happend to the Panda mount? I have checked the web and I can not find any news about this mount.

My only issue with the outfit is it's another thing that will clip because I like to have long hair on my character. Square: please less hoods.

I like the outfits but couldnt care less about the mount. I hate eboards already in real life and the people that ride them.

Yes, Hiten and Manten. Gotta say, Hiten was a stylish douche. If the mount flies also, it would be freakin awesome ;D

I like the barding. They can keep the rest, though.

Because of chinese mythologie, I think
And hey, the couch is cool ^^

I think the chinese team do the artwork design and send it to SE to create the ingame model.

I'd be happy if they could include these outfits with the wings removed. Overall the outfit was okay except for that little detail. They want to either make it region exclusive or they didn't pass the quality control from the people in charge of the JP/NA/EU crowd.

We'll all have it all next year, just like any previous chinese exclusive. Maybe even for 'free' as part of some amazon promo.

I like the coats... But the rest is rather meh.

The mount could be amusing for a while.

..... A segway? Nobody has a problem with it (well.. one person) ? Everyone bags on clouds bike because it doesnt fit the mythology. Everyone says don't put this or that because it's cause weird or modern, yet y'all are psyched about the flaming segway?

*archiving this thread to use at a later date.

This is literally the Ne Zha (哪吒) set, as indicated by the name of the barding: 哪吒装甲 (ne2 zha1 zhuang1 jia3). It's very easy to see where the inspiration for the costume, mount and barding designs come from. Ne Zha is typically portrayed as a young boy with pigtails in Chinese mythology, hence the long "tail" in both the male and female costumes. And the celestial boy general does indeed ride a pair of flaming wheels.

The deity also features in the "Journey to the West" which chronicles the adventures of the Monkey God, Sun Wukong ( 孙悟空 ), as he travelled to the west to help his master retrieve a cache of sutras from the Holy Land. Sun Wukong was the inspiration for the Eastern Attire set and the cloud mount.

The closest equivalent to Ne Zha I can think of in Japanese mythology is Momotaro, but their stories are different enough that I believe they arose from different historical sources.

You may not release this but the mount is in real life part of Chinese mythology, its been around maybe 2 thousand years before Segways or eboards or whatever you call them.

i need that top!!!

My apologies since I wasn't being clear enough, what I meant was that the character design of Hiten from Inuyasha is imo loosely based on Nezha. This glamour set is indeed based on Nezha. That aside, I do kind of like the set and hope we can get it sometime soon without all the hassle to go through in order to obtain it, especially for our EU account friends. Or just add it directly into the kupo store if that's how they did it for the China servers.
