We've seen lots of The Last Story hero Elza. We've seen lots of The Last Story heroine Kanan.

But what we haven't seen lots of is their tiger.

The tiger first appeared in the character artwork shown above way back in April. Back then, Elza and Kanan's names hadn't been announced, we hadn't heard about the "Gathering" system, and online play? Ha ha ha ha ha.

With today's flood of The Last Story announcements comes some good news. The tiger hasn't been removed from the game. Here he (she?) is in a promotional poster showing the same artwork as above, but in glorious color:

Now all that's left to be addressed are 1) What does the tiger do? and 2) Why isn't the tiger the main character?
