So... that spiderman shirt... (new job tease)

It's a very obscure reference, either way you go with it. A director? Yoshida said Spider-man has more than one director, as he was brushing off SAM talk.

Uh, just so you know, in the same interview he 'brushed off' BLU talk in the same fashion.

He brushed off "traditional" BLU, as in the going-around-learning-spells BLU. He said he didn't see it working in this type of MMO. It worked in FFXI, because FFXI had a system for it. But I think I've got something that will make everyone happy.

New Theory: It's BLU and SAM put together. That's why he chose that particular shirt. Because it references both. The villain in 4.0 has a gunblade, but the blade part is like a katana. He sticks it in the gun part on his left, (has 3 slots on it) and it's pre-loaded with spells. You get the katana of SAM, with the gun of gun mage (BLU in FFX-2). It's the best of both worlds!

It's just a gunsheath. You know, like Jetstream Sam?

Nope. Don't know anything about that. Samubluegun is the new job.

"When asked on the weapon Zenos held, Yoshida said that "while the weapons he hold doesn't really relate to his character, but if asked whether he's holding a gunblade then yes he is holding a gunblade." Yoshida told the interviewer to look closely at his artwork later and see if they can notice something from it."
