Ninja Warrior Title?

Rumor had it that you could get it by getting to the very top.

Nope.

So can you get it this year at all, or was it 2018 only?

It was tied to the achievement for completing 2018 Moonfire faire event questline so no it is no longer obtainable.

So your telling me that everybody saying that the title from the last 2 years is from getting to the top NOW, and the people saying that you just have to click the minion on the top to get it...

Oh. Sounds like people are either trolling you or distorting speculative information they heard. The very top is a nice view and a personal challenge you can set for yourself but it has no reward, this year or last. The reward is from completing the seasonal quest and spending tokens, and last year the quest achievement had a title attached to it.

The title I got last year was "Eorzean Ninja Warrior" for completing the quest.

The title is flawed, anyway. It should have been Eorzean Nimble Warrior; you know, like what the NPCs actually refer to the event as. Dunno why the title changed it; it's not like the fact that the whole event is alluding to American Ninja Warrior needed to be further spelled out for us.

For some reason I seem to be the only person bugged by this. Any time I've brought it up in public/NN/FC, nobody else seemed to care.

I'd say you are the only person bothered by a lot of things.

Oh yeah? Name some.

I won't even say that you're wrong; I just could use the reminder.

Most likely technicalities of copyright - they probably wanted it to be Ninja Warrior all along but naming an obstacle course that isn't okay, but an "unconnected" character label can reference the show title more directly.

It still just looks like an inconsistency, to be honest :( should have just kept it all one way.

To be honest, directly calling the course "Eorzean Ninja Warrior" would have been too "on the nose" as a reference, anyway. I think it was better with the name that they ended up using. It's typical parody style; you don't use exactly the same words but you change some around to something that sounds similar enough that people still recognize what it's referring to.
