Translate the Final Fantasy Ultimania books into English

The Issue

Hello, Final Fantasy fans!

My name is Paolo Caracciolo and I represent a Japanese translation, editing, and publishing company known as Interbooks Co. LTD. My employers asked for suggestions about what Japanese material we could translate that would sell overseas. The first thing that came to my mind was the Final Fantasy Ultimania series. (Examples here and here.)

Ultimania compendiums are lore books and companion guides to various Square Enix games. In addition to in-depth walkthroughs, they contain official artwork, concept designs, and developer interviews about the games' creation. They also feature detailed information regarding each title's plot, backstory, characters, creatures, setting, and more. In short, these books can be considered "The Bibles of Final Fantasy".

If you are interested in bringing the series to the rest of the world, please sign this petition and make sure to tell to your friends! We will show this petition to our contacts at BentStuff and Square Enix in order to convince them that the Ultimania books must be translated.

Regards

Paolo Caracciolo, Overseas Department Manager at Interbooks
