Did somebody say "Chocobo"?



Nerd lesson for today.
Chocobos are to Final Fantasy as Taun Tauns are to Star Wars. They have an annoying theme song and look like giant chickens. They can be different colors, with each color having different skills. You don't really need them to get around in the games, they are useless. That is a moogle on the chocobo's head. They like to dance and only say stupid things like "Kupo!". They like to eat nuts. I think the birds from Nausicca came first, so the chocobo is probably a rip off of that.
Many hours of highschool were spent listening to teachers while I drew videogame characters. This is why I'm now stupid. Be smart, read books.

  13. Well, the Nausicaa birds were different in that they were quite useful in battle! Chocobos don't allow you to jump over hundreds of enemies and get away running on their heads.

    Cool drawing, I love the Moogle.

  21. Hey now! Video games can teach you alot. For instance, where else are you gonna learn that mushrooms make you big. I learned how to kill zombies from Resident Evil. No teacher ever taught me that.
