<p style="text-align:center;">There was a lengthy (eight page) interview with Masahiro Sakurai near the end of the Fire Emblem 25th Anniversary Book. In it, Sakurai&#8217;s history with the Fire Emblem franchise is explored.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">I provided the scans to my friends at <a href="http://www.sourcegaming.info/" target="_blank">SourceGaming</a>, who <a href="http://www.sourcegaming.info/2015/12/13/sakurai-fe25/#more-4331" target="_blank">translated the first part of the interview before</a>. And now, <strong><a href="http://www.sourcegaming.info/2015/12/26/fe25/" target="_blank">they translated the second part of the interview in full</a>.</strong> Sakurai details his opinions on the games of the franchise, such as <em>Genealogy of the Holy War </em>among others! There are some <em>Fire Emblem Fates </em>spoilers, so please be careful. Thankfully, SourceGaming has marked the spoilers so they can be avoided.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://www.sourcegaming.info/2015/12/26/fe25/" target="_blank">Please go over and read it!</a></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">As you can imagine, the process of doing all this (scanning, editing, translating in some cases, etc) took a lot of time, and I am unemployed…so if you like what I did, then…</p>
