Hiro Isono was 68 years old
Legendary artist Hirō Isono, who is best known for working on Squaresoft’sManafranchise (known asSeiken Densetsuin Japan), has recently passed away. He worked on nearly every game in the series fromFinal Fantasy Adventurein 1991 toHeroes of Manain 2007.
Did you know that theManaseries was originally aFinal Fantasyoffshoot, starting with a game calledFinal Fantasy Adventure? It’s a franchise rich with history, and if you haven’t checked it out,Secret of Manais a great starting place. I’ll never forget his work.
