Tetsuya Nomura is the worst.

Joke post?

Christopher Lee is wearing two belts on his head.

So no.

 

[NEO0MJ]

The point for various head and accesories is so you can play around and pick whichecer look you like. I cant believe people here saying they want less options for their action figure.

If they add to the cost I'm usually against them. One of the reason I was so hesitant to buy the new MP Megatron is the included silencer and stabilizer because they probably added to the cost of the figure.

 

[Eidan]

I like it.

 

[Mortemis]

I love this

 

[SomedayTheFire]

Of course people are allowed to not like things, but the shit posting around Square, Nomura and Final Fantasy lately is absolutely ridiculous.

And no one said anything to do with SOLDIER'S post before he jumped into his probably pre planned defence.

 

[TheRedSnifit]

Anyone saying it looks good... if this was the design in the DC film universe you would complain, say it's awful and that Zack Snyder should leave.

Current DC universe, yeah. But I think it'd be fairly well-received if it were in Batman Beyond-style cyberpunk movie.

Let's not forget that Joker's actual Batman Beyond appearance had him running around with slicked hair, nail polish, and a skintight fetish suit.

 

[RM8]

Maybe people genuinely don't like Nomura's designs and it's not a personal vendetta against Final Fantasy or whatever.

 

[KarasuEXE]

All this criticisms, and this is one of Nomura's tamest designs lol

 

[Regulus Tera]

This would be a good design had he decided not to add tentacles

 

[LiK]

The robot arms are stupid but the rest is fine.

 

[GifGafIsTheBestGaf]

tetsuya nomura was a mistake

 

[NealMcCauley]

The vampire face and jester mask reminded me of this:

 

[Pantaghana]

This is... good. Certainly much better than the over designed mess he called Batman.

 

[Fou-Lu]

Maybe people genuinely don't like Nomura's designs and it's not a personal vendetta against Final Fantasy or whatever.

Sure, but do posts like this really contribute anything?:

Tetsuya Nomura is a public menace and must be stopped.

Tetsuya Nomura is the worst.

tetsuya nomura was a mistake

 

[Quonny]

So, the Joker wearing a purple suit look pretty cool? Cool

The masks, the scarf, the hat, the hairstyle, the old man version, and so on and so on.

Keep on keepin' on, though.

 

[Elginer]

Hello Good Hunter, why the fuck do you have mecha arms.

Hahahaha

 

[Negaduck]

I'm down, I think this one looks sick as fuck.

 

[HardRojo]

I actually like this one lol. The repurposed Cloud head looks fine.

 

[GifGafIsTheBestGaf]

i like this one the best and the last one but mecha arms always looked lame

 

[Arkeband]

The real question is, how does Nomura have so much time to do all these side projects when he's currently at the helm of two enormous upcoming titles?

 

[KeyBladerXIII]

That Carnival jester mask would be a really cool take on the Joker if it was paired with a suitable setting, like Renaissance style.

 

[OmegaFax]

The Joker, the leader of the Phantom Thieves?

That actually sounds like a great idea ... or make a cross-over of some kind.

 

[DemWalls]

Why adding those green elements to the waistcoat, I wonder. They just ruin an otherwise decent design. It's like Nomura can't help adding useless elements even when he miraculously manages to renounce the belts and zippers.

 

[chrisPjelly]

You know what, take away those stupid doc oc legs, and you'd be left with a pretty sweet cowboy joker design imo

 

[- J - D -]

These things are like $150.

 

[Fancolors]

I want Nomura doing a Batman game just to see what it would like

 

[ZeoVGM]

That looks cool. I think people were ready to hate it though.

 

[D i Z]

The Jester head is cool. The rest of it can go to the bushes.

 

[mrplaid]

I was ready to not like it, but it's pretty neat. I like everything but the metal arms/wheelchair thing. Better than his attempt at redesigning Batman.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Yeah this looks amazing. Such a great concept.

 

[DiipuSurotu]

I want Nomura doing a Batman game just to see what it would like

He already did Batman, Catwoman, and now the Joker... What if all these designs are secretly forerunners to such Batman game? :-o Maybe it could finally be announced after the Robin and Harlequin designs are revealed.

 

[Alex_Mexico]

Obligatory "so this is why we're never getting KH3 or FFVIIR!" post.

 

[To Far Away Times]

Nomura, the master of artistic restraint who would never add a thousand useless emblems, belts and/or accessories.

 

[thechristoph]

It looks like the carnival head is meant for this body... And incidentally it makes for a perfect Kefka.

 

[RyougaSaotome]

Other than the weird arms, I actually think this is a pretty cool look.

 

[.JayZii]

One of my favorite Phantom Thieves. Cool Persona too:

 

[silva1991]

Aside from that mech part, I think it looks really good.

About what you would expect from anime Joker.

Can anyone remove the mech part with photoshop?

 

[Japanmanx3]

Me like

 

[Jaeger]

Y'all are killing me with arms stuff. It's just a weapon. An accessory. Like a sword, gun, or jetpack. Except Nomura was attempting to be more original than that. And it's not attached to him.

 

[Cerity]

really reminds me of the akumetsu mask.

 

[FinaruDensetsu]

Wait is that Cloud Joker?

 

[Lumpy Onion]

LOL looks like a boss from a Metal Gear game.

 

[jackdoe]

I own Bahamutman and would love to have this as a companion piece, but it costs as much as a freaking Hot Toy. Nonsense.

 

[DiipuSurotu]

Comparison to an earlier variant design by Nomura for the line.

That wasn't Nomura though.

 

[Jaeger]

That wasn't Nomura though.

I assumed most of them were his. Who was the artist behind that one? Definitely Nomura-esque.

 

[Galactic Barret]

Sexy.

Now I want a Nomura Batman game. GG.

 

[Zaphrynn]

I actually really like this design. The jester mask was a great idea. Also like the different faces so you can kind of tailor which Joker you want.

 

[Kyrios]

Looks like Hazama from Blazblue

First thing I thought.

 

[TheGreatDirector]

Pretty unique design.

 

[Pizza]

Nomura produces some unique shit for sure

I'd love a Nomuraverse DC comic that was as dense and hard to follow as kingdom hearts

Shit I better see kh3 at e3 this year or I'll cry
