Final Fantasy XIV: Eorzea Academy is a manga spin-off of the hit MMORPG (free trial of the award-winning Heavensward included, etc.) by Esora Amaichi. I had the pleasure of working on the English translation of this funny, heartwarming story.

Given the explosive popularity of FFXIV and the beloved status of its colorful cast of characters, I spent a great deal of time ensuring that their voices shone through and matched what players would remember from their time in-game. And for long-time fans: keep your eyes peeled for a few jokes you might remember!

I worked with the editor at Square Enix Manga and Books to keep the writing snappy, accurate, and funny, and I think the results speak for themselves.

You’ll be able to purchase a physical copy of the book in September 2023, but in the meantime, the chapters are available digitally via Square Enix’s Manga Up! platform.
