Well that fleta heavy armor coupon is alluding to something.
Heavy Armor... Alphonse Elric... Full Metal Alchemist collaboration, yes?

I was thinking SAO, but that makes more sense.

Both of those came to mind, but then I wonder would they really have gotten those? I don't know if SAO has an English release, and the FMA stuff is long overdue(but likely possible since they have been collabs in other English games/sites like Tinierme and Gaia online)... well they'd both still be nice to have, of course.
It'd be nice if they had a new anime collab as a surprise, but that'd be extremely unlikely for NA to have gotten first. :(

Pardon me for not paying much attention when the FMA collabs were happening, but didn't they make it light armor? And even if it's not light armor ingame, there are MUCH heavier armors in comparison. I honestly think Al would be light armor.

FMA is more popular in NA than vocaloid, and as it stands to reason, the licensing should cost more. Now... Vocaloid i assume was a big success for Nexon, now wanting to try out new Anime territory... I actually have pretty high hopes in anime stuff.
Even though i generally do not watch anime.

Oh, that makes sense then.
I know friends who joined specifically for the Vocaloid stuff when it was released(spending quite a lot and then stopped playing about a week later), so there probably were a lot others who did the same and helped to influence Mabi to try more anime stuff.
I think it'd be good for even those who don't like anime. I don't even like SAO but I'd like it to come to Mabi for the sake of fashion, and FMA I love as a whole. XD

I wouldn't know, Al's armor just LOOKS heavy.

Mm, I guess I could see Heathcliff's wear being heavy armor.

IDK, that looks like steel plate armor to me. It would qualify as heavy armor. Light armor is more leather and such.

I think they're talking about what it's classified as in the game, as in it is the type of armor with less defense than heavy armors that elves can't wear.
It doesn't make sense, but then it also kind of does because they might not have wanted it to be too restrictive or disallow elves when the main function is fashion.

Whether it will be SAO or FMA or both, or just the ninja release they mean with it because it is anime-like, I will be happy either way. Not a big fan of FMA or SAO, but I did enjoy watching them when I did, and I like the clothes from the series.

Kind of wonder if the other anime collabs would be a possibility, like the Shana and Anohana stuff, but never knew if their anime were licensed by any NA company or not.

Some Shana/Ano Hana stuff was already put in, although modified (like the 2NE1 stuff).

Al's armor is giant-only.
I don't think making it Heavy Armor would restrict it to elves, there's no reason to make Elves not wear it if the only reason was the type of armor.
FMA was made back when race restrictions were still, big? Only Elves can get the Roy and Riza cards, only Humans could use the Edward and Winry cards, etc. Though what confused me is that Giants had three characters instead of two, Alphonse, Izumi, and Armstrong. Perhaps one was from a gach or maybe Al was a separate card for both genders.

Oh. That is indeed restrictive. :x
