So, did anyone notice anything familiar while fighting the first boss in Pharos Sirius Hard Mode? The animations used for the auto-attack look so familiar; they look like they're just slightly adjusted auto-attack animations used for the Hume in Final Fantasy XI.

That was not even the FIRST thing I noticed about the boss, too; his fighting stance is basically a Hume's when he has a sword and shield equipped.

Pinch me if I'm wrong/dreaming. =(
