I wouldn't take the JP Blog's early post as an indication of availability. It takes them a while to get the blog updated for other languages. This is an international MMO so it will launch worldwide (outside of China and South Korea due to their versions being actual different versions).

Actually, they almost always update the blog very quickly. What takes forever is them posting about the blog post on the Lodestone news, Twitter, etc.

Iroha has descended from the future where the world has been consumed, and she is on a mission to save Vana'diel from its current path to destruction - naturally, with the help of adventurers!

The equipment definitely has a very eastern feel to it

YOU HAD ONE JOB, TENZEN.

ONE JOB.

YOU HAD ONE JOB, TENZEN.

ONE JOB.

He's just one man, ONE MAN! One MORTAL man! There's no telling if he's even alive in Iroha's time!

So, thats what yoshida have ment with "Samurai"...
Does that mean the rumors about new job was not real?
Then what about red mage and blue mage he have said??

[Zumi]

I doubt it is dye-able because that is how Iroha looks.

I hope we can store the gear in the chest cause my retainers are so full.

I'm not understanding what you're asking. This is just a special crossover event to celebrate the end of FFXI and the armor is just vanity gear based on something a character from the game wore. It has nothing to do with whether or not we get Samurai here in FFXIV or any other new class in the future, including both Red and Blue Mage.

I'm not understanding what you're asking.

Yes, it is just a crossover, but the character it's featuring IS a Samurai. In XI Samurai can use katana (or great katana in English), longbows and certain spears. That does leave the red and blue mage reference hanging, but nothing in the anniversary event promised new classes so for all we know red and blue mage could be another reference to a future event. We just don't know.

Really, IMO this looks quite boring to me..
