Скачать или смотреть Final Fantasy IX Anime: Development Hell or Hidden Comeback?

Final Fantasy IX is one of the most beloved RPGs of all time — so what’s going on with its long-rumored anime adaptation?

Originally announced back in 2021, the Final Fantasy IX animated series has quietly resurfaced with reports of a new studio, Euro Visual, taking over production after the collapse of Cyber Group Studios. But with Square Enix staying silent, conflicting reports, and a surprising focus on Vivi’s children aimed at a younger audience, fans are left with more questions than answers.

In this episode of Anime Report, we break down everything currently known about the FFIX anime, including:

The studio change and what it could mean for production

Why a children’s cartoon based on FFIX feels so strange

The leaked story details involving Vivi’s legacy

The long-rumored Final Fantasy IX remake and how it ties in

Whether this project is still alive — or quietly cancelled with a reply from one of the show creators

We also touch on recent anime news, including the announcement of the RuriDragon anime adaptation by Kyoto Animation, and why it’s a manga worth keeping an eye on.

FFIX is a game remembered for its emotional storytelling, heavy themes, and timeless art direction — so can an animated follow-up do it justice? Or is this another case of a beloved classic stuck in limbo?

Let me know what studio you think should handle a Final Fantasy anime in the comments.
