  1. Oh! that slaps! The song, timing and scenes ramping and tributes to Haurchefant and Ysayle was beautiful! You found his grave. This was epic, your edits are really good! (also, the backwards flying is still hilarious)

  2. Oh wow, I love this! The opening captures the feels of the story, it's characters and the sceneries so well. I also love how Hyura is not just a random player character in the shadows but actual part of the story, showing us how he experiences the world. The song choice was brilliant, the anime theme fits so well in this. This is professionally made but shows the passion and love for the world of FFXIV at the same time. Thank you, this was pure joy to watch! I hope your move went well and you're still in one piece 🙂

  4. Phenomenal. Definitely stepping up your game, no pun intended.

    At first I thought, "oh no, Hyura's going to wish he'd waited once he gets through the patch content…" but as I watched, I realized that no, this is a perfect encapsulation of your Heavensward experience. Anything that may or may not happen in the patches could possibly detract from the story and themes this intro is meant to depict. (Besides… have to have content for the slow and somber closing credits, right? 😆)

  6. I love how you made not only a great intro to Heavensward, but also a tribute to your very own, unique journey with this expansion. Oh, and I also love how you mixed ingamee footage and trailer stuff, it blends so damn well together! Thank you so so much for sharing your journey with us, I can't wait to see what you think of Stormblood and the other expansions!

  8. This is freaking awesome!

    But a real anime intro would have Nanamo open her eyes and Haurchefant getting stabbed by the lightning. There were way to less major story spoilers. XD

  9. Hyura.
    You…thank you.
    This opening..is…just…perfection. Theres so much I could say, but I think only one thing needs to be said:

    When all hope is lost, do not forget those we have lost, and keep their flame burning bright in our hearts.
    For that light…shall ever be our guide in the darkness.

  10. Okay, I used to know any anisong as soon as I heard the chorus but this took a while. Now I have to play my favorite Yukei Yesterday. Anyway, this was fun to watch! Looking forward to more of these😁 Maybe…some ending songs too?🥺
