Phantasy Star: Fringes of Algo

When plotting the cutscenes of Phantasy Star IV, the staff at Sega drew references by hand before creating them as 16-bit, sprite based gaming graphics on a computer. In this example, we can see Chaz and Rika as they resolve to begin a new stage of their lives together. Rika has just jumped out of a hovering space ship to join Chaz, who caught her in his arms as she fell. This is one of the few romantic moments in the action filled Phantasy Star series.
