About FF4 and FF5:
Yoshitaka Amano's art in Final Fantasy 4 and 5. Amano, the father of the series in the art department, is known for his unique style and involvement in creating iconic logos for the series. Final Fantasy 4 is a game that set the standard for narrative plot progression and character development in role-playing games, featuring Amano's character designs and official illustrations. Amano's style is often described as based on surrealism, using sketchy, curved strokes, varying line thickness, and unique facial and eye structures. His composition embodies the fantasy genre with ancient Arabic royalty-inspired designs. Amano's monster and boss art are static images with one dominant dark color as a base, unlike his character art. Final Fantasy 5 introduced the job system with customization and mixed abilities, equipment, and stat transfers. The story follows Bartz and his companion Boco on their adventures after a meteor impact.
