Which brings me to the very quote you posted by Yoshida: "I stated earlier that we will implement jobs true to the FF series..." Puppet master is not true to the series. However, Blue Mage is true to the series. It can be found in nearly every final fantasy title. Even more than Samurai.
I see your point. I personally connected the strings/webs to the Puppetmaster as a possible itteration where it may use strings to attack and manipulate the puppet at the same time. However, Puppetmaster does not feel like an FF classic which most likely makes it less of a candidate. Could it indeed be BLU then?
