This is the most late 90s early 2000s anime hairstyle I've seen in a minute. She got the ahoge. She got the antennae. She got the weird lil lick in the back. And a braided ponytail. And the hair is fucking huge. This is some Naru Narusegawa shit
🇯🇵 "Melodies of Life" (2000) from Final Fantasy IX is a beautiful ballad sung by Emiko Shiratori.
It perfectly captures the game's themes of mortality & hope. When FFIX came out it was less popular than VII and VIII but I still think of it very fondly.
This is why the death of Flash was such a massive tragedy. Miniclip, Newgrounds, Armor Games, Kongregate, etc. were a fantastic way to play games without having to invest in hardware and now the best "free games" are all predatory gatchas and F2P mobile titles
