Dead Fantasy I is the first installment of the Dead Fantasy series, created by Monty Oum. First released in October 2007, this episode introduces the first six characters of the series in a three-on-three battle between Team Dead or Alive and Team Final Fantasy.

This episode has been labeled by Oum as the one he "wanted to do the least" because it only served as an "introduction" for the other episodes.

Three years after Oum's death, animator Uiyahan created a remake of the first installment to follow Oum's legacy. It was unexpectedly released under the title of "Dead Fantasy 2020" on December 28, 2020 by youtuber sWooZie as a tribute to Oum despite Uiyahan stating that the first movie would be officially released in January 2021, which it later was on January 4.

Overview[]

Yuna & Rikku VS Kasumi & Ayane

Yuna & Rikku vs. Kasumi & Ayane

The episode begins with Yuna (of Final Fantasy X) running through an old Temple, being pursued by two shadowy figures. As she tries to leave the temple, she is finally confronted by her pursuers, Kasumi and Ayane (Dead or Alive).

Yuna and the two kunoichi begin a fierce, fast-paced fight. While Yuna manages to hold her own for a bit, she is outnumbered and starts to lose the fight. However, just as Ayane is about it stab her, Yuna is saved by her cousin Rikku, who steals the Tokkosho from Ayane.

Tifa ready to fight

Tifa arrives to save the day.

With the odds evened, Rikku gives Ayane back her weapon and draws her own, and the four begin to fight even more determinedly, with a greater awareness of each other. For a brief time, Yuna and Rikku have the upper hand until Hitomi (Dead or Alive) appears and halts their final attack towards her comrades.

The fight continues, with the numbers in Team-DOA's favour once more. As the fight moves outside - thanks to Hitomi throwing Yuna and Rikku through a wall - things seem bleak for Team-FF until Tifa Lockhart (Final Fantasy VII) shows up and defends Yuna and Rikku from the others. Just as the girls get ready for a new fight, the episode cuts to a "To be Continued" screen, showing Tifa glowing with Materia.

Trivia[]

  • In the remake version, the title of the first installment is no longer to be seen and due to the change of different animation graphics, the characters are now in their true-to-original characters within their respective games as the Dead or Alive characters are now in their current appearances in Dead or Alive 5 through Dead or Alive 6.
  • According to Uiyahan, the release of the first installment is confirmed on January 2021 which is January 4. Unfortunately, Oum's friend sWooZie had unexpectedly released of the first installment in December 28, 2020 under the title of "Dead Fantasy 2020".
