Tetsuya Nomura – famous games designer

Tetsuya Nomura is well-known for his games, such as Final Fantasy V and Finala Fantasy IV.

One of the features of his characters in games is overuse of zippers and belts. Nobody knows exactly why.

Sometimes they make at least some sense, but on other games characters – all zippers and belts are totally not fitting.

Finally, Tetsuya Nomura opened up about his obsession with zippers and belts in an interview to Mirror.co.uk.

“That was my preference back when I first designed the characters, so 15 years ago,” said Nomura.

“At that time, people teased me about zippers and belts and whatnot and I’m the type of person if somebody eggs me on I’m gonna do it more! Nowadays, I’m not as conscious about adding them in,” he noted.

Well, know we know the answer 😅
