So the Mana (Seiken Densetsu) franchise is one of my favorites, so much so that I named my Free Company after it. There's a remake of its most famous and arguably most well-received games, Secret of Mana, coming in February on PS4, Vita, and Steam. Just a few months ago, Japan received Seiken Densetsu Collection, a compilation of ports of the first three games in the series slapped onto a Nintendo Switch card, as part of the 25th anniversary of the Seiken Densetsu series.
Why stop there?
I think FFXIV would be a wonderful place to keep the celebration of the series going, perhaps with glamour outfits of some of the characters, Minions of the elemental spirits used through the series, a Flammie mount(!!), or even orchestrion rolls with some of the most famous songs used throughout (Particularly Kikuta's work in Secret of Mana/Seiken Densetsu 3 or Yoko Shimomura's amazing Legend of Mana tracks). This may be dreaming big, but I would absolutely DIE (and also unshelve summoner) if we were to somehow get Mana-themed Egi glamours.
I realize the series has never been as big as FF or Dragon Quest, but I know I can't be the only one who loves the Mana games. How about a show of support for the beautiful, charming underdog in Square's lineup?
