Hironobu is Final Fantasy's sole creator. He is Final Fantasy. Left after 10 and made Mistwalker and Lost Odyssey/Blue Dragon.

You haven't realised it yet, but you just wrote the reason why nobody should vote for Sakaguchi: he left FF when it was still young and desperately needing its dad and he let it rot! He's a heartless dad!

I find that more acceptable than Yoshio Sakamoto raping his "child".

It's just matter of points of view, we call it "rape", he call it "love". And "maternal instinct".

Stwike him, Centuwion. Stwike him vewy wuffly! (Pontius Pilate, "Life of Brian")

Sakaguchi is hardly an icon.

I am a Final Fantasy fan and this is the first time I have seen his face, I haven't really seen his name that much in the credits either.
