Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth’s new Moogle design is being called everything from “cursed” to “creepy”

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth has been available for five days now, and players are still wondering what happened to Moogles.

From time to time, Moogles have played different roles in the Final Fantasy games. These little guys are always cute, though. Until now. Little floaty balls of fluff have been redesigned for the remake, and they now look a little creepy.

A lot of people are having a hard time figuring out what is wrong with this version of Moogle. Well, the little guys now look more like a koala, which is fine normally.

But there’s something off about a koala with teeth that look like rodents’, eyes that look like teddy bears’, and a body that looks like a teddy bear’s. Also, I’m not the only one who feels this way.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth fans in both the US and Japan agree that the new Moogle is “super creepy” and “cursed af,” as @Genki_JPN and @tkn0801 pointed out on Twitter.

Japanese fans claim that the new Moogle is like seeing someone’s profile picture online and then meeting them in real life and realizing they are not the same person. This is compared to the design used in Final Fantasy 16.

One Twitter user joined the conversation and asked, “How do we go from this Moogle in [16] to this in FF7 Rebirth?” “I still find it cute but it having detailed facial expressions and rodent teeth makes it look off for me,” someone else commented, “my favorite Moogle design will always be the one in KH/Type-0/Dissidia, etc.”

The Moogles you find in Kingdom Hearts are the best design we’ve seen so far, according to fans, which seems to be a common theme.

Speaking of less bad news about Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, the most recent game in the remake trilogy has gotten the highest Metacritic score for the series in 23 years.

This shouldn’t be a surprise, since we gave the game such a great review.
