Lightning Would Like To Return This Purse

Final Fantasy XIII’s pink-haired star is modeling for Louis Vuitton now, but that doesn’t mean she’s made of money.

Square Enix posted a video of a new collaboration with the famous French fashion house yesterday, demonstrating how alien the concept of a purse is to the heroine of Lightning Returns.

She seemed much more comfortable modeling men’s clothes a few years back. Lightning’s accessorizing normally involves things like demonic earrings that increase strength and magic by 40 percent while increasing ATB cost by 10. She has no need for a tiny expensive bag that can’t even fit a Phoenix Down.

I Hope she kept her receipt.
