I like how the other dude running was actually supportive of Prompto instead of being condescending or something. Good on you animated side character man.
Ok Prompto getting in shape was impressive and all, but people don't seem to realize the best part of this episode...Noct slept through a freaking car crash. MY HERO!
Im pretty sure noctis is in some sort of trance while he sleeps since him sleeping and dreaming has been a recurring thing in this game. also i think he is forced to rest alot because ignis says hes just doing just job when prompto mentions him sleeping. he needs the most rest he can get because he is the only heir to a throne that saps his vitality. so he has to make sure he gets enough rest and health while he can.
Now this dialouge from FFXV has a bit more meaning to it. Prompto - "anyone want to grab a bite?" Ignis - " Only if you want to put on weight" Prompto - "*sigh*, yeah i know"
oh god in context Iggy probably didn't mean to make Prompto to feel so bad, like he probably felt guilty like he'd lose his friends if he gained weight!
@@shonascott367 Prompto lost weight because he felt like he would be making a fool of himself talking to such a high-up Prince like Noctis while looking like he did. But I think you're right regardless - Ignis didn't say it to be a jerk, he said it because Prompto worked for many years to achieve that body he has and Ignis doesn't want him to destroy the result over masses of food being available.
@@shyanmarie4405 Actually, I don't think Ignis knew of his weight when he was younger. I think Ignis' remark was just cautionary overall and Prompto took it harder because he knows where he came from. I think tree closest Prompto ever gets to mentioning his past self, aside from his DLC, is with Noctis on the roof of that hotel. They never outright mention his weight, but Noctis does say he would've preferred for Prompto to just speak with him, no matter what he looked like. Actually, in thinking about the DLC, I think Prompto actively worked hard not to tell them about his weight. He mentions something about being afraid of losing his friends and so he strove hard to do everything he could to keep Noctis, Ignis and Gladio by his side. He mentions this in a flashback in the DLC as he has a sort of dream sequence with his younger self, I think.
On the bright side, it also makes Noct and Prompto's chat at the motel much sweeter when Noct mentions that he thinks they should have been friends from the start instead of Prompto waiting until highschool. He would have accepted Prompto for who he is chub or no chub.
I like how Prompto progressively became more sociable and happier as he lost weight in a healthy way. Prompto lost weight; not in order for Noctis to accept him as a friend, but to become someone with the confidence to stand beside the Prince. There's no "fat-shaming" happening here that forces Prompto to change his identity per-se; exercising, eating healthy and losing weight was merely a mechanism to break away from his shell. And now he's Noctis' beacon of light; cheerful and outgoing .
@@JackIsNotInTheBox You see, you took a sweet message about loosing weight to gain self-confidence and the explicit aversion of the typical fat shaming and turned it into the typical fat shaming. You blew it. :D
@@JackIsNotInTheBox You literally didn't have to say anything. Not a damn thing. No one asked you,no wanted to know.

You may as well have formed your own comment instead of replying to someone.
The whole point of this episode was to show and explain Prompto's backstory. He use to be a Chubby kid but he was determined to change and look different so he could feel good and better about himself. This episode teaches you about self-awareness and self esteem and that if you work hard in life you can achieve happiness. Shoutouts to Square-Enix for this brilliant episode. This should be an inspiration to others out there who dealt with this issue when they were younger and grew up to be the person they wanted to be.
@@PulseBladeenjoyer the first step is always the hardest . but do start small , like bodyweight exercises for 5-10 mins daily ,and even with diet changes . lotsa benefits in the long run !
Noctis wasn't even trying to bully him. helping someone up at that size when noctis is so small would be difficult. Love how he still recognized Prompto at the end like he truly never minded about the weight but pronto became a better/stronger person because of it.
1:09 Prompto makes a sudden swerve to the shock of everyone.. and Noctis still sleeps like a boss. And 13:06 he wakes up by a simple door closing sound.. xD
Hi, I just found this vid. I just started going to the gym more regularly 2 weeks ago (not to lose weight, but to gain muscle/endurance, as I am too skinny), this vid came to me at just the right time for additional motivation. it's been another 4 years, since your comment and I Just wanted to check on how you have been doing, if you were able to keep up the exercises.
If people say they hate Prompto, show them this episode, i changed my opinion from hating the guy to being one of the more developed characters i have seen in a Final Fantasy, like up there with Vivi and Barret.
I'm not quite understanding your comment, are you saying that Vivi isn't a deeply developed character, or that you don't think Prompto is as developed as Vivi?
lennethebeauty well in 9 i remember Vivi had to deal with his shortcoming of being a Black Mage, you know seeing others like him die, or the fact that wasn't going to live very long. He went from a cute naive dude to a team mate i ended up caring very much.
Prompto actually did somethi g smart while exercising; he managed to wean himself off of his previous diet. It may seem small, but he first cut out the excess sugar, starch, and sodium (soda and fries) then he graduated to eating a full serving of vegetables and then rewarding himself with a burger afterwards. It may seem insignifigant but it's better to slowly transition your dietary intake as you exercise rather than go cold turkey cause believe me it makes you feel terrible to just eat healthy when your main diet was fast food the previous day.
after a month you become acclimated tho. and by that point, you don’t even order the excess crap because you know it will make you feel like crap, puts a limit on your calorie intake for the day, and also means you have to work a little harder for a day or two just to keep on schedule. I use to eat a full meal and an extra side or small entree. . . now adding sides makes me full to the point I want to throw up because my body is no longer use to eating all those calories and garbage at once. sugar is the hardest to cut, though, only because it’s in almost everything nowadays, even some bottled water lol.
@@REDEEMERWOLF Well yeah, some people can do it cold turkey if they really can't control themselves. The problem I usually refer to is when people who want to lose weight but arent in any major risk of diabetes or heart failure. For most people going cold turkey won't just make them sick, it will make it that much harder to maintain a diet if they give up the first time round. Your body has a weird relationship with dopamine and depriving your body of so much of what it got as stimulus will actually make you physically ill. The closest you could get to this is withdrawals. Most extreme diets right after eating unhealthy for an extended period of time don't result into vomiting, shivers, and craving that make you feel like you're stomach is splitting open. Just as a word of advice for those who struggled with or plan on changing their dietary intake. It's just a way to make things easier.
Plus a lot of people that go with hard strict diets gain all the weight back and possibly more when they decide to stop. The idea of doing a diet you hate for the test of your life is pretty depressing lol…
I played the demo when it came out. First time I had played Final Fantasy. I can proudly say I will be picking up FFXV when it comes out this September.
This one is drastically different from all the other Final Fantasy games though. lol That's not necessarily a bad thing though, I'm a long time fan of the series, having played through 10 of the 12 titled games. (I'm not counting the MMOs...) Hopefully it'll interest you enough to at least check out the lore and stuff of the older games. (I know turn-based isn't everyone's cup of tea.)
A lot of people are saying things like "Why did he lose weight before being friends". As someone who was heavily overweight as a kid, then thinned up, only to get even more overweight again after high school, I can say that sometimes I DO feel like I would be a better friend when meeting new people if I'd lose weight first. Socially, physically, and emotionally I feel like I would just be all around better as a person and that people ARE more accepting of people who aren't overweight. Now translate this into Promto's universe and he's trying to be friends with the prince who is not only a strong public figure, but who is physically fit and draws the eyes of every girl who sees him. Stepping into his world, as an overweight kid, even IF Noctis DID accept him as a friend, it would burden him more than if Promto was in shape and wasn't weighed down by his weight. It makes a lot of sense to me, so thought I might try to relay a little of how I interpreted it to those who may be confused :)
Bingo. It can be hard for some people to be empathetic, but it is necessary to understand how difficult it can be for others who are overweight or extremely introverted to overcome their insecurities.
Being fat is bad when everybody fat shaming you i want to do like prompto but everybody talks about my weight and they think it will help but it makes me feel not motivated and i dont want to lose weight anymore i know it is not health for me but i dont want them to think that because of their words i am losing weight.Cuz insulting someone fat shaming will not make them start losing weight I dont know what to do now. Everybody insults me every day every hour and that makes me eat more than losing weight.cuz it is a terrible feeling when someone who are pretty and skinny but not intellginet talented is higher level than you intelligent talented creative with warm personality because of your weight and you are not considered as a person if you are fat (for them) Can you give me tips what should i do???
Savage Sangwoo the advice I would give you is don’t exercise to lose weight, exercise because you like a sport and enjoy it, it helped me lose weight a lot faster and I met lots of friends through sports clubs, who were accepting me even if I didn’t have the best body. Find a sport you enjoy, try several, for me it’s fencing and weightlifting, but for you it could be swimming or playing football/soccer. Also get a good coach with a licence who can give you tips on how to improve your overall condition. Best of luck!
I'm really sorry about that. But if you really want to lose weight you have to remember that you are doing this for yourself. People will always mock and insult you, but, I know its hard, you have to take those insults and turn them into motivations. Say to yourself I'll show them I can
How this episode can turn the little kiddy prince into a great heart young boy and the ridiculous sidekick into a great and deep character. I judged them too quickly.
@@popcornistorturedcorn His parents weren't really around. That alone is pretty messed up. They were neglecting him and forcing him to raise himself way too young. We know nothing about Ignis' parents but he has an uncle and Noctis, but Gladio had his sister and father, Noctis had his father and Ignis. The only one who had no one truly around was Prompto.
@@kaluawoo your body will use your calories to keep you warm,If you're planning on losing weight,cold is a good pick,but it is indeed,very uncomfortable
TBH, I really disliked Prompto since the first time I saw him in the trailers and gameplay shizz. They gave him a premise that he was a playboy kind of guy. But after this episode, I really respect and admire him now. Hahahaha!~ FUk! I hate it when a show makes me realize how judgemental I am!~ XD
Play his episode on the dlc of the game you'll really feel bad for talking shit about him XD That man went thru a identity crisis and I felt bad because the whole time he thought he was a lucan but he was created in a lab and shit
Yeah cause if you call them ugly they will either fatten themselves up or try to loose weight at such an unhealthy rate and loose tons of confidence while doing that. So motivate them, inspire them, cheer them on.
If he had stayed the same, he would have grown up to be Bara type with better HP and defense, but he changed his Job Class to Bishonen and had to sacrifice his total HP to gain speed.
@@lefthandrule638 So you gave yours to Prompto as well, huh? XD! Boy, I would've loved to have kept that for Noctis but damnit, I'm tired of having to rush to Prompto's side as he limps and gasps semi-sexually around the fighting field, lol!
I totally agreed. Noctis doesn't seem to be the shallow type that judges someone base on weight, hence he holds out his hand. In this case, Prompto feels unworthy of being a prince's friend the way he is and takes the initiative and have the determination to change himself. I think it's heartwarming =).
I agree with what you said, and it sort of irritates me when people compare Noctis to Sasuke. Their look is (slightly) similar but they are very different characters. Noctis is a caring person who clearly wanted to be Prompto's friend here, and we see how people just swoon and dote over him. He isn't be stand-offish because he's a Sasuke clone, its because he's a freaking prince and has realized those people don't really care about who he is as a person and are pretty much just fake.
I'm sure Noctis will. But i like this storyline better. It's is less cliche. This really highlighted Prompto's growth as a person, his kindness, self-esteem, and determination.
I think it was just that someone who is so high was depending on him or something like that. It seems like he either lives alone or has absentee parents, leading him to have to get his own food and care for himself. Essentially not really having a support system himself.
I mean, now we know why Prompto had such a lazy personality before with such a muscular body, its because Noctis and the lady inspired him to exercise more.
It's also cool to see how by always greeting others while he was running, Prompto was able to build confidence not only to speak with Noctis, but also for himself! THATS AWESOME!
you know what! im gonna start running and lose weight to! starting next year Update: its been 8 years and i gained like 60 pounds but hey i can bench 225
You gotta respect him. To have that much motivation to change his lifestyle. It takes a lot. He's a really great character. One of the best I have seen. Square really did an awesome job on him.
I cant believe that there's lots people said they keep hating prompto until watch this????I just cant get it, prompto is so cute and energetic all the time isnt he???why you guys hate him???i just more love him after watching this!!!!
@@o5-814 Welp, I pretty much use him all the time cuz like cmon He can use a fucking cannon A fucking CANNON Also I’m the type who loves to grind for gils and levels, so his stats really aint a problem for me XD And using bazooka to fire pretty much everything randomly and getting scolded is pretty fun
they still need a guardian if under a certain age, they can't just live alone. Another thing that was odd is how he said "For me?" when he received the letter, like he was surprised. If he was living alone, he would not be surprised that a letter in his mailbox was addressed to him. Or maybe he was just surprised that someone bothered to send him a letter?
Spoiler. Prompto is one of the magitech creatures created by Niflheim. His father was one of the lead generals, and sent Prompto to infilitrate Insomnia.
THIS IS JUST WHOLE LOAD OF HEARTWARMING. AND PUPPIES. AND PROMPTO, YOU FREAKING BALL OF SUNSHINE AND DORKINESS AND ADORABLENESS AND LOVE. AND HOW LUNAFREYA IN A WAY STARTED THEIR FRIENDSHIP. LUNA. AND PUPPIES. AND OMG. THIS IS GOLD.
I think this demonstrates that good exercise can be a really healthy outlet for young men and can also help with mental health. Also can we give props to the random jogger who saw someone trying to actively make an improvement in their life and chose to say "keep it up". Simply stuff like that is the sort of thing people very often find with gym bros.
lol I think the only character I'm kinda finding it hard to find interesting is Noctis himself because he's just the typical brooding, "I don't care" kind of guy we've seen with other characters in this genre but who knows, maybe he'll get more interesting as you learn more about him.
+Decadent Gamer What are you on about. Noctis is basically a dork. He doesn't eat his vegetable and drinks coffee to look cool even when he doesn't like it.
Decadent Gamer I like Noctis a lot. I remember when it was FF Versus and it was supposed to be on PS3. When I first saw him I was like "oh god here we go, another dark, super serious, overly stoic character".. He is then later described as being very very shy, but tries to act "cool", in order to hide his shyness... So he is somewhat a dork. He also seems very caring, and down to earth, and wanting friends, true friends, not people surrounding him who want to be around him because of his title. This is really shown with his behavior towards fat Prompto, when Prompto thinks he wants the camera instead of his hand. He also seems somewhat sheltered, but interested in learning, and not being a punk about it lol. I really like all of the characters so far, and I love how they are treating this game, and why. This is so far becoming another favorite of mine in the series right up there with IV, *VI*, VII, X, and XII. Plus Yoko Shimomura doing the music? Oh my Jesus lol. So perfect for the look of this FF world.
Azure Knight Mm I guess I'll just have to wait then. I want to like Noctis but I'm just indifferent to him right now. It's just that after Cloud got overblown with popularity with his "I'm too cool for this" aura followed by other characters like Squall and Lightning and other various characters from other series, it really killed that appeal for me if that makes sense? But yes, he doesn't seem all bad since he didn't care if Prompto was fat or not so that does count for something. Ugh... I really didn't like XII lol It had such a boring atmosphere and the characters didn't interest me at all but this is just my own opinion of course.
Decadent Gamer Oh yes it makes a lot of sense. I don't like those type of characters anymore myself. When Cloud first came out, I thought he was cool. It somewhat kinda felt a bit of the same with Squall, then we see it again with Lightning.. Its been done to death now, I don't care to see that type of character anymore. XII I liked because, I was kinda obsessed with XI at the time, and XII pulled me away from it lol. I also liked the music, and characters, Basch being my favorite, and the manga that came out before the game, most of all it was set in the world of Ivalice (which I wish XIV's world was set in). I think the only character, I can tolerate the "I'm too cool for school" attitude from, is Cor Leonis. He seems so far, he is like that. If so it works because of his age, and his past and he uses a samurai sword so that's even more badass. He reminds me of some mean Yakuza boss.
Isn't it amazing how one little act can be the source of such great inspiration? That's exactly what I got from this episode; you can become anything you want if you simply put your mind to it and have something to work towards.
and now I'm scared because people like prompt always dies in games and movies and stuff I most protect my blond blue eyed cinnamon roll waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Anne Beach I wonder if it's one of her 2 dogs and she sends the black dog to protect or guide him. Maybe she can't send Pryna (the whitish dog) cause she never recovered from it's leg injury as a puppy. Gotta wait 3 more months to see.
+Naomi I don't see why she would send Pryna to him at such a young age tho, seeing how there isn't even a hint of the kingdom being taken when they were young.
Battle Cubes Yeah idk why she'd send Pryna to him either. Perhaps since they're already friends at this point she sends Pryna to, like, check up on him. See how he's faring since his mother is already dead at this point.
I love how when Noctis first interacted with Prompto he wasn’t dismissive of him and showed genuine concern to someone he barely knew when he fell, also that other guy who was running was awesome
Look back on this now, it's kind of sad knowing that Prompto didn't get to meet Lunafreya in person. She unknowingly helped him to push himself to become someone he was proud and work up the courage to become friends with Noctis. It would have been nice to see him show her the letter from all those years ago and thank him for being his chocobro.
I love the friendship and backstory of Prompto and Noctis. The story in this anime is just as good as the game itself. I can't wait for the next episode.
this says a lot about Prompto, for sure, but i think it says more about Noctis. hes not an anti-social ass like Lightning or Squall or Cloud. hes shy, but hes also a prince, he doesnt talk to people because he needs to be safe, not because he hates them. he actually wanted to help Plumpto up off the ground! nobody was around to see him, he did it because hes nice. i barely know anything about Noctis, but hes already my favorite FF MC.
I'd say it more like he doesn't interact with others as they see him as just a prince, where as Prompto just wanted to be his friend and treated him like a normal person.
Prompto is a national treasure and needs to be protected. I thought this before and after seeing fat kid Prompto, I almost cried and think he needs to be protected even more. I'm barely even 4 minutes in and almost crying. EDIT: 13 minutes in and after having seen how he turned his life around I'm tearing up like a bitch and emotionally folded like a fucking omelette. I LOVE YOU PROMPTO.
Everybody can do it if they have determination and don't give up. The hard part is not working out, is doing it everyday and not giving in to your past ways. And if it helps at all, I believe you can :)
Great characterization for Prompto and Noct here. Never expected Promptos backstory to be like this. It's actually really inspiring, i never expected this from brotherhood.
I can't believe this is Prompto's backstory. Makes him even more adorable! Also, him sniffing Lunafreya's letter for motivation is so in character, I love it :D
"If Prompto can lose weight so can I" I want to see more people inspired by prompto More people run I mean I've been running, not because of prompto but still Prompto makes me want to run more Can't we all be like prompto
I'm over 400 lbs, and this inspired me and I got off my big butt and got outside. I didn't exactly run... it was something more along the lines of brisk walking while making breathing sounds like a dying walrus, but it's the first time I've done this in a long time, and now I'm really anxious to get my body back in shape like it used to be. i wasn't expecting this episode to be what it was, but I think it's great the back story Prompto has. Sorry, wanted to let you know that at least one person WAS inspired by this :)
Mad King? Did you search for people burning and got here by accident? Cause this may not be the kind of "burn" you're into. Anyways, you must go to the top.
I have no idea what Final Fantasy is about, but the unhealthiest thing is this story is the fact that that poor kid had to get back from school each day and say, "I'm home!" to an empty house. No one but him to notice his progress or worse, share a meal with.
Speaking of Gladio and weight issues, check out this screenshot image of October to celebrate the season of food: cdn3.dualshockers.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/CRVaVlrUsAA8eFV.jpg
I looove how Noct totally remembers him, “what do you mean first time?” Just shows how observant and caring Noct is. He doesn’t have “airs” around him as a prince and remembers regular people. (Even if he is a little spoiled 🤣)
Funny how the kids who are bullied, made fun of, and have low self-esteem turn out to be the most successful/attractive people later in life while still retaining their past experiences to still be kind and empathetic. Likewise, the ones who usually are seen as prodigies, talented, and cocky bullies early on, turn out to be unhygienic and most miserable humans for the rest of their lives.
And the fact that Noctis asks him, "why wouldn't you?" when Prompto asks if she can meet Luna when they get to her. Guess I'll have to play the game to find out. Gonna try to avoid spoilers on this.
I find it sooo adorable how Prompto changes for him :) Just so they could be friends together und Noctis was quite happy about it too, that someone treated him like a "person" and not as a "prince". But the thing with the letter.... no. Just no!
Yeah maybe that was a bit off in a way not intended. Smell is an interesting way of experiencing something that could comfort you and maybe wasn't meant in the way we received it. But Prompto is totally adorable.
***** There's nothing wrong from her, aside from her completely impractical outfit, considering her profession. It's not about being wrong, it's about her being eye candy for guys. I don't mind or anything, I don't give it much thought. It's just, if us girls are pervs for wanting to stare at Prompto's nice abs, then guys are pervs for wanting to stare at Cindy's boobs. Again, don't really mind, hell, I've had a stare or two at her boobs, 'cause they're kind of just there. It's hard to miss them. But still, tables turned and all that.
I love how perfectly this fits into the rooftop scene at the motel. I'm not sure which came first: this episode or that part in the game, but it's so cool how it works with that scene in the game, like without retconning anything
they're really doing a good job with fleshing out these characters. I thought prompto seemed interesting before we got any type of detail, seeing this now makes me like him more as a person. can't wait to get to know everyone else.
I like how the other dude running was actually supportive of Prompto instead of being condescending or something. Good on you animated side character man.
and to think that that man might actually have died in the attack :)
*DON'T*
;D
I always thought that was a much younger Gladio than anyone else. He's the type of guy who would enjoy a good run at the crack of dawn.
TheOnlyLonelyBoy - I was thinking it was Nyx
Ok Prompto getting in shape was impressive and all, but people don't seem to realize the best part of this episode...Noct slept through a freaking car crash. MY HERO!

Im pretty sure noctis is in some sort of trance while he sleeps since him sleeping and dreaming has been a recurring thing in this game. also i think he is forced to rest alot because ignis says hes just doing just job when prompto mentions him sleeping. he needs the most rest he can get because he is the only heir to a throne that saps his vitality. so he has to make sure he gets enough rest and health while he can.

Alice Becker they knew the struggle and conquered it. They just want people to succeed as well
Hell yes. My thoughts exactly.

ha... no

My thoughts when he said "Keep it up!"
I like how Prompto progressively became more sociable and happier as he lost weight in a healthy way. Prompto lost weight; not in order for Noctis to accept him as a friend, but to become someone with the confidence to stand beside the Prince. There's no "fat-shaming" happening here that forces Prompto to change his identity per-se; exercising, eating healthy and losing weight was merely a mechanism to break away from his shell. And now he's Noctis' beacon of light; cheerful and outgoing .

@@chokopunk have you 👀 played the game/ watched the movie
The whole point of this episode was to show and explain Prompto's backstory. He use to be a Chubby kid but he was determined to change and look different so he could feel good and better about himself. This episode teaches you about self-awareness and self esteem and that if you work hard in life you can achieve happiness. Shoutouts to Square-Enix for this brilliant episode. This should be an inspiration to others out there who dealt with this issue when they were younger and grew up to be the person they wanted to be.
Nothing embarrassing about that, if it works for you then why not! :-)
They also talk about it in the game too. :') Noctis and Prompto.
Also that there's a time skip when prompt gets in shape showing that it will take time and won't happen over night
Old comment but I wish I could so something like this. Hate my big belly and such. I want to workout but am afraid to. I hate this
@@PulseBladeenjoyer the first step is always the hardest . but do start small , like bodyweight exercises for 5-10 mins daily ,and even with diet changes . lotsa benefits in the long run !
prompto used to be chubby now hes like the thinnest of the four
Went from a log to a twig
Daniel Heo he's t o n e d
Shoulda made himself like Gladio
Twinkification
Noctis wasn't even trying to bully him. helping someone up at that size when noctis is so small would be difficult. Love how he still recognized Prompto at the end like he truly never minded about the weight but pronto became a better/stronger person because of it.
Interesting how Prompto means fast in Latin and he was a chubby kid… now I'm almost sure that he's the fastest party member.
This gives me motivation.
+Genesis Rhapsodos ahhhh so I was right. Yeah I thought so and it's kinda obvious now that I think about it 😅
Well his full name, Prompto Argentum, is Quick Silver, which was the name of one of Vincent's guns in VII.
He also has Time magic with his bullets in Episode Duscae, able to cast stop on an enemy, and I think he should have access to haste too
ARMY!
+SaintValtiel I was waiting for this tbfh 😂
1:09 Prompto makes a sudden swerve to the shock of everyone.. and Noctis still sleeps like a boss.
And 13:06 he wakes up by a simple door closing sound.. xD
Just like me in my sleep XD
The door didnt wake him up, he just woke up on his own
Pronto’s story actually motivated me to start exercising regularly. It’s been about 4 years and I’m a lot happier
I was expecting a lot of negativity in the comments for some reason and I've been pleasantly surprised
Congratulations buddy. Same here. I’m down 23 lbs
Good for you! 👏
Congrats man 👏🏼
Hi, I just found this vid. I just started going to the gym more regularly 2 weeks ago (not to lose weight, but to gain muscle/endurance, as I am too skinny), this vid came to me at just the right time for additional motivation. it's been another 4 years, since your comment and I Just wanted to check on how you have been doing, if you were able to keep up the exercises.
If people say they hate Prompto, show them this episode, i changed my opinion from hating the guy to being one of the more developed characters i have seen in a Final Fantasy, like up there with Vivi and Barret.
I'm not quite understanding your comment, are you saying that Vivi isn't a deeply developed character, or that you don't think Prompto is as developed as Vivi?
lennethebeauty well in 9 i remember Vivi had to deal with his shortcoming of being a Black Mage, you know seeing others like him die, or the fact that wasn't going to live very long. He went from a cute naive dude to a team mate i ended up caring very much.
lol vivi is in top 3 of every FF fan he is the best from the 9nth final fantasy i think
+aquapyro1 Vivi my number 1 FF char of all time *_* and yesssss loving pronto now
Ikr They're doing a great job developing the characters , can't wait to play FF XV
He's looking at the man in the mirror. He's asking him to change his ways!
far be it from me, forgive me for asking, and i don't mean to pry, but where have i heard lyrics like that?
+nas zwill Its a song called man in the mirror. I'm not exactly sure who the artist is
+D.J Watson Michael Jackson sings it
I feel so inspired now.
+D.J Watson Michael Jackson sings it. Its my favourite song by him.
Prompto actually did somethi g smart while exercising; he managed to wean himself off of his previous diet.
It may seem small, but he first cut out the excess sugar, starch, and sodium (soda and fries) then he graduated to eating a full serving of vegetables and then rewarding himself with a burger afterwards.
It may seem insignifigant but it's better to slowly transition your dietary intake as you exercise rather than go cold turkey cause believe me it makes you feel terrible to just eat healthy when your main diet was fast food the previous day.
Huh, that’s a point.
after a month you become acclimated tho. and by that point, you don’t even order the excess crap because you know it will make you feel like crap, puts a limit on your calorie intake for the day, and also means you have to work a little harder for a day or two just to keep on schedule. I use to eat a full meal and an extra side or small entree. . . now adding sides makes me full to the point I want to throw up because my body is no longer use to eating all those calories and garbage at once. sugar is the hardest to cut, though, only because it’s in almost everything nowadays, even some bottled water lol.
Or just go cold turkey. With that attitude you have you can ever do it.
@@REDEEMERWOLF Well yeah, some people can do it cold turkey if they really can't control themselves. The problem I usually refer to is when people who want to lose weight but arent in any major risk of diabetes or heart failure.
For most people going cold turkey won't just make them sick, it will make it that much harder to maintain a diet if they give up the first time round. Your body has a weird relationship with dopamine and depriving your body of so much of what it got as stimulus will actually make you physically ill. The closest you could get to this is withdrawals.
Most extreme diets right after eating unhealthy for an extended period of time don't result into vomiting, shivers, and craving that make you feel like you're stomach is splitting open. Just as a word of advice for those who struggled with or plan on changing their dietary intake.
It's just a way to make things easier.
Plus a lot of people that go with hard strict diets gain all the weight back and possibly more when they decide to stop.
The idea of doing a diet you hate for the test of your life is pretty depressing lol…
Never touched a Final Fantasy game in my life and I really enjoyed this.
I played the demo when it came out. First time I had played Final Fantasy. I can proudly say I will be picking up FFXV when it comes out this September.
This one is drastically different from all the other Final Fantasy games though. lol That's not necessarily a bad thing though, I'm a long time fan of the series, having played through 10 of the 12 titled games. (I'm not counting the MMOs...) Hopefully it'll interest you enough to at least check out the lore and stuff of the older games. (I know turn-based isn't everyone's cup of tea.)
yeah you can enoy it ether way itd pretty good show
you must live a sad life
Jozef Leonor How did you knoooooow?
Prompto is my precious baby
Same ^^
He is MY cinnamon roll (hugs Prompto)
He's my hasubando :3
Oh hey there XD
Me TOO 😂😂😂🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤😭🖤
Promoto is highkey weight loss goals
A lot of people are saying things like "Why did he lose weight before being friends".
As someone who was heavily overweight as a kid, then thinned up, only to get even more overweight again after high school, I can say that sometimes I DO feel like I would be a better friend when meeting new people if I'd lose weight first.
Socially, physically, and emotionally I feel like I would just be all around better as a person and that people ARE more accepting of people who aren't overweight.
Now translate this into Promto's universe and he's trying to be friends with the prince who is not only a strong public figure, but who is physically fit and draws the eyes of every girl who sees him. Stepping into his world, as an overweight kid, even IF Noctis DID accept him as a friend, it would burden him more than if Promto was in shape and wasn't weighed down by his weight.
It makes a lot of sense to me, so thought I might try to relay a little of how I interpreted it to those who may be confused :)
Bingo. It can be hard for some people to be empathetic, but it is necessary to understand how difficult it can be for others who are overweight or extremely introverted to overcome their insecurities.
Being fat is bad when everybody fat shaming you i want to do like prompto but everybody talks about my weight and they think it will help but it makes me feel not motivated and i dont want to lose weight anymore i know it is not health for me but i dont want them to think that because of their words i am losing weight.Cuz insulting someone fat shaming will not make them start losing weight I dont know what to do now. Everybody insults me every day every hour and that makes me eat more than losing weight.cuz it is a terrible feeling when someone who are pretty and skinny but not intellginet talented is higher level than you intelligent talented creative with warm personality because of your weight and you are not considered as a person if you are fat (for them)
Can you give me tips what should i do???
Savage Sangwoo the advice I would give you is don’t exercise to lose weight, exercise because you like a sport and enjoy it, it helped me lose weight a lot faster and I met lots of friends through sports clubs, who were accepting me even if I didn’t have the best body. Find a sport you enjoy, try several, for me it’s fencing and weightlifting, but for you it could be swimming or playing football/soccer. Also get a good coach with a licence who can give you tips on how to improve your overall condition. Best of luck!
I'm really sorry about that. But if you really want to lose weight you have to remember that you are doing this for yourself. People will always mock and insult you, but, I know its hard, you have to take those insults and turn them into motivations. Say to yourself I'll show them I can
In other words self awareness, self care, self esteem. Look good, feel good.
FINALLY YESSSS
holy shit LOL
I Mean... seriously??? Proximity???
OMG
Bruuhhhhh, I just can't waiittt :D
Its really you lmao ;D
Proximity hyped on that FFXV, you've got good taste friend, guess I'll have to resubscribe.
How this episode can turn the little kiddy prince into a great heart young boy and the ridiculous sidekick into a great and deep character. I judged them too quickly.
Droufte It's always the ones that are super happy and cheerful that have the darkest pasts
@@electricsutando4119 darkest past? He was just overweight and insecure, what are you talking about
@@popcornistorturedcorn Play Episode Prompto.
@@popcornistorturedcorn *laughs in scientific experiment*
@@popcornistorturedcorn His parents weren't really around. That alone is pretty messed up. They were neglecting him and forcing him to raise himself way too young. We know nothing about Ignis' parents but he has an uncle and Noctis, but Gladio had his sister and father, Noctis had his father and Ignis. The only one who had no one truly around was Prompto.
100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, 100 squats and 10 km run!!! Every single day!!! For 3 years!!!
You forgot the *MOST IMPORTANT THING* : never use the Air Conditioner or heat in the summer or winter.
@@azazel166 Dude if I didn't use a heater in winter I'd freeze. Airconditioning isn't really widespread here, but a heater is essential.
But why didn't he lose his hair.🤔
@@kaluawoo your body will use your calories to keep you warm,If you're planning on losing weight,cold is a good pick,but it is indeed,very uncomfortable
TBH, I really disliked Prompto since the first time I saw him in the trailers and gameplay shizz. They gave him a premise that he was a playboy kind of guy. But after this episode, I really respect and admire him now. Hahahaha!~ FUk! I hate it when a show makes me realize how judgemental I am!~ XD
HAHA NOOB KA KASI JK LNG PO
Play his episode on the dlc of the game you'll really feel bad for talking shit about him XD
That man went thru a identity crisis and I felt bad because the whole time he thought he was a lucan but he was created in a lab and shit
Bruh with his original design he could could get away with being a playboy ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
be careful on who you call ugly in middle school xD
lmao
Kelly Ow true
if you don't like me at my 1:52
then you don't deserve me at my 1:43
Yeah cause if you call them ugly they will either fatten themselves up or try to loose weight at such an unhealthy rate and loose tons of confidence while doing that. So motivate them, inspire them, cheer them on.
Omg my heart can't take this. I thought Prompto was annoying and never shut his mouth but now I have so much respect for him I love him.
Prompto's story is literally my life!!!
I now have motivation! :D
*finishes pint of ice cream*
you are me
at this moment
Except that people are not quite that nice to fat people.
if you truly want to lose weight, you need to change your eating habits and not joke about ice cream
Yeah we are. If people see a fat guy eating Mc Donolds they will tell him to stop eating that garbage and lose weight. Giving good advice.
hahahha i got motivation too ! for like half a day
u workout like crazy but why is ur hp is so lowwwww??????? noctis sleeps like a sofa and he is so op
Nothing an Adamantite Bangle can't fix.
If he had stayed the same, he would have grown up to be Bara type with better HP and defense, but he changed his Job Class to Bishonen and had to sacrifice his total HP to gain speed.
@@lefthandrule638 Truest shit right here, best item for Prompto because ain't farming another mech suit v2.
@@lefthandrule638 So you gave yours to Prompto as well, huh? XD! Boy, I would've loved to have kept that for Noctis but damnit, I'm tired of having to rush to Prompto's side as he limps and gasps semi-sexually around the fighting field, lol!
That's Prompto for ya.
the guy who kept telling prompto to keep it up when he saw him running is the true hero of FFXV.
I'm sure Noct would have wanted to be his friend even if he was fat xD
I totally agreed. Noctis doesn't seem to be the shallow type that judges someone base on weight, hence he holds out his hand. In this case, Prompto feels unworthy of being a prince's friend the way he is and takes the initiative and have the determination to change himself. I think it's heartwarming =).
I agree with what you said, and it sort of irritates me when people compare Noctis to Sasuke. Their look is (slightly) similar but they are very different characters. Noctis is a caring person who clearly wanted to be Prompto's friend here, and we see how people just swoon and dote over him. He isn't be stand-offish because he's a Sasuke clone, its because he's a freaking prince and has realized those people don't really care about who he is as a person and are pretty much just fake.
I agree, I'm pretty sure Noctis was looking for a friend who wanted to be with him for more than just being the prince.
I'm sure Noctis will. But i like this storyline better. It's is less cliche. This really highlighted Prompto's growth as a person, his kindness, self-esteem, and determination.
I think it was just that someone who is so high was depending on him or something like that. It seems like he either lives alone or has absentee parents, leading him to have to get his own food and care for himself. Essentially not really having a support system himself.
I gained 10 AP from watching this
I gained 999 ap
Lol
I gained 5000 EXP
i gained 1000 exp from taking a nap
I lost weight watching this
This was awesome. I like Prompto and Noct a whole lot more now.
No, I liked them before this but now I like then even more than before.
ikr this episode made me smile a lot
I already liked the two, but now I love them even more.
I mean, now we know why Prompto had such a lazy personality before with such a muscular body, its because Noctis and the lady inspired him to exercise more.
***** They're Adorable. I hope we get to see them a lot in the game.
It's also cool to see how by always greeting others while he was running, Prompto was able to build confidence not only to speak with Noctis, but also for himself! THATS AWESOME!
PROMPTO IS SO PRECIOUS I WANT TO CRY
After watching this, Prompto has earned my respect.
Take a ticket for the feel train.
God damn'it genesis.
go back to angeal
So where are we headed?
To the 30 september.
+Nine X King Well then, all aboard right? 😂
I want to give him a hug. But he became strong and smart with a big heart. I could never hate him!
you know what! im gonna start running and lose weight to!
starting next year
Update: its been 8 years and i gained like 60 pounds but hey i can bench 225
Literally me
i believe in you!
***** I'm gonna run so I can become a hottie too
I've already said that to my self a year ago, and guess what? I dont even started yet XD HAHAHAHAHA
+yellowcard8100 just kidding mate
You gotta respect him. To have that much motivation to change his lifestyle. It takes a lot. He's a really great character. One of the best I have seen. Square really did an awesome job on him.
I cant believe that there's lots people said they keep hating prompto until watch this????I just cant get it, prompto is so cute and energetic all the time isnt he???why you guys hate him???i just more love him after watching this!!!!
Low health without adamantite.
Don't hate him personally lmao just ingame
@@o5-814 Welp, I pretty much use him all the time cuz like cmon
He can use a fucking cannon
A fucking CANNON
Also I’m the type who loves to grind for gils and levels, so his stats really aint a problem for me XD
And using bazooka to fire pretty much everything randomly and getting scolded is pretty fun
he said it himself, he is more trouble than his worth, but sometime you just need a good friend
I enjoyed that! Love the backstory getting filled out of these characters!
Cant wait for ep 3
Me too
+Merio can't wait for the game haha
I enjoyed it as well ^u^
+19HajimeSaitou91 that aswell
Where the hell are Prompto's parents?
Probably the type who're always working so much.
Well doesn't Japan have a funding for kids without parents? Anime tends to depict children living by themselves with dead parents ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
they still need a guardian if under a certain age, they can't just live alone.
Another thing that was odd is how he said "For me?" when he received the letter, like he was surprised. If he was living alone, he would not be surprised that a letter in his mailbox was addressed to him. Or maybe he was just surprised that someone bothered to send him a letter?
Spoiler. Prompto is one of the magitech creatures created by Niflheim. His father was one of the lead generals, and sent Prompto to infilitrate Insomnia.
Nathaniel Ranney Yeah, also that's why he uses the green wristband, to hide the scar he got from the imperial infantery implants
Imagine the ammount of gay fanfics created after this episode
It's been a year, and your prediction was right. Promptis is everywhere now. Not like I'm complaining hehe.
...dude, come on
I mean ur not wrong
First time I even discovered this episode was in some gay Facebook page someone shared
Ikr xd
THIS IS JUST WHOLE LOAD OF HEARTWARMING. AND PUPPIES. AND PROMPTO, YOU FREAKING BALL OF SUNSHINE AND DORKINESS AND ADORABLENESS AND LOVE. AND HOW LUNAFREYA IN A WAY STARTED THEIR FRIENDSHIP. LUNA. AND PUPPIES. AND OMG. THIS IS GOLD.
I think this demonstrates that good exercise can be a really healthy outlet for young men and can also help with mental health. Also can we give props to the random jogger who saw someone trying to actively make an improvement in their life and chose to say "keep it up". Simply stuff like that is the sort of thing people very often find with gym bros.
Aw, Promp was so cute when he was a child. I love how everytime Noc was waiting for him to show up. I love Prompto even more now. 😍💕
Fat Promto's running music, should have been fat chocobo theme. ^_^ I am really liking the characters a lot for XV.
lol I think the only character I'm kinda finding it hard to find interesting is Noctis himself because he's just the typical brooding, "I don't care" kind of guy we've seen with other characters in this genre but who knows, maybe he'll get more interesting as you learn more about him.
+Decadent Gamer What are you on about. Noctis is basically a dork. He doesn't eat his vegetable and drinks coffee to look cool even when he doesn't like it.
Decadent Gamer I like Noctis a lot. I remember when it was FF Versus and it was supposed to be on PS3. When I first saw him I was like "oh god here we go, another dark, super serious, overly stoic character".. He is then later described as being very very shy, but tries to act "cool", in order to hide his shyness... So he is somewhat a dork.
He also seems very caring, and down to earth, and wanting friends, true friends, not people surrounding him who want to be around him because of his title. This is really shown with his behavior towards fat Prompto, when Prompto thinks he wants the camera instead of his hand. He also seems somewhat sheltered, but interested in learning, and not being a punk about it lol.
I really like all of the characters so far, and I love how they are treating this game, and why. This is so far becoming another favorite of mine in the series right up there with IV, *VI*, VII, X, and XII. Plus Yoko Shimomura doing the music? Oh my Jesus lol. So perfect for the look of this FF world.
Azure Knight
Mm I guess I'll just have to wait then. I want to like Noctis but I'm just indifferent to him right now. It's just that after Cloud got overblown with popularity with his "I'm too cool for this" aura followed by other characters like Squall and Lightning and other various characters from other series, it really killed that appeal for me if that makes sense?
But yes, he doesn't seem all bad since he didn't care if Prompto was fat or not so that does count for something.
Ugh... I really didn't like XII lol It had such a boring atmosphere and the characters didn't interest me at all but this is just my own opinion of course.
Decadent Gamer Oh yes it makes a lot of sense. I don't like those type of characters anymore myself. When Cloud first came out, I thought he was cool. It somewhat kinda felt a bit of the same with Squall, then we see it again with Lightning.. Its been done to death now, I don't care to see that type of character anymore.
XII I liked because, I was kinda obsessed with XI at the time, and XII pulled me away from it lol. I also liked the music, and characters, Basch being my favorite, and the manga that came out before the game, most of all it was set in the world of Ivalice (which I wish XIV's world was set in).
I think the only character, I can tolerate the "I'm too cool for school" attitude from, is Cor Leonis. He seems so far, he is like that. If so it works because of his age, and his past and he uses a samurai sword so that's even more badass. He reminds me of some mean Yakuza boss.
Isn't it amazing how one little act can be the source of such great inspiration? That's exactly what I got from this episode; you can become anything you want if you simply put your mind to it and have something to work towards.
It pisses me off that Prompto and Luna couldn't meet in the game..
Tabby L I cri evrytim 😭😭😭
i felt more sorry for him then noctis
Is it bad I ship them together more than every other character in the game?
Tabby Scientia it actually breaks my heart because Prompto wanted to meet her so badly and never got the chance.
Tabby Scientia thanks for spoiling the game for me.. can't blame you. it's my fault reading these comments.
"i hear he's too busy to play with his school mates" nah fam he's just emo as fuck.
I love the relationship that Noct has with his friends. They're the best of bros!
I like how the kids didn’t made fun of Prompto weight instead they just mind their business and give him tips to be a good runner
They seemed to to casually exclude him instead.
and now I'm scared because people like prompt always dies in games and movies and stuff I most protect my blond blue eyed cinnamon roll waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Well then I have good news and bad news...
Sike! 😂
How much you want to bet that those dogs that Luna has are important later down the line, having special powers or being guardians?
They do guard her. Or, at least, they said she has a black dog that guards her.
I think the Black one ends up being Noctis' dog because in a few trailers we see him with a similar black dog.
Anne Beach I wonder if it's one of her 2 dogs and she sends the black dog to protect or guide him. Maybe she can't send Pryna (the whitish dog) cause she never recovered from it's leg injury as a puppy. Gotta wait 3 more months to see.
+Naomi I don't see why she would send Pryna to him at such a young age tho, seeing how there isn't even a hint of the kingdom being taken when they were young.
Battle Cubes Yeah idk why she'd send Pryna to him either. Perhaps since they're already friends at this point she sends Pryna to, like, check up on him. See how he's faring since his mother is already dead at this point.
aww prompto look so cute when he was kid
This is so great. It's really encouraging and adds so much depth to not just Prompto and Noct but the entire world of FFXV.
This 15 minute short film put more character development in a side character than lightning in three 70 hour jrpg's.
I love how when Noctis first interacted with Prompto he wasn’t dismissive of him and showed genuine concern to someone he barely knew when he fell, also that other guy who was running was awesome
Look back on this now, it's kind of sad knowing that Prompto didn't get to meet Lunafreya in person. She unknowingly helped him to push himself to become someone he was proud and work up the courage to become friends with Noctis.
It would have been nice to see him show her the letter from all those years ago and thank him for being his chocobro.
OMG IM CRYING. THIS IS AMAZING
WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE?!
And then we all realized we were fighting over video game and anime characters, stood up and got a life ^.^ .
ScotlandSlag lol
Honestly didn't expect to be stabbed in the feels in less than 14 minutes. Pretty damn good.
I love the friendship and backstory of Prompto and Noctis. The story in this anime is just as good as the game itself. I can't wait for the next episode.
this says a lot about Prompto, for sure, but i think it says more about Noctis.
hes not an anti-social ass like Lightning or Squall or Cloud. hes shy, but hes also a prince, he doesnt talk to people because he needs to be safe, not because he hates them. he actually wanted to help Plumpto up off the ground! nobody was around to see him, he did it because hes nice.
i barely know anything about Noctis, but hes already my favorite FF MC.
I'd say it more like he doesn't interact with others as they see him as just a prince, where as Prompto just wanted to be his friend and treated him like a normal person.
lightning cloud and squall don't hate people :/
maybe just lightning, but not so much
but yes. noctis is a pretty cool guy
+random guy lightning made hating ppl so kool lol.
Prompto is a national treasure and needs to be protected. I thought this before and after seeing fat kid Prompto, I almost cried and think he needs to be protected even more. I'm barely even 4 minutes in and almost crying.
EDIT: 13 minutes in and after having seen how he turned his life around I'm tearing up like a bitch and emotionally folded like a fucking omelette. I LOVE YOU PROMPTO.
i mean if prompto can do it then i can do--
ah who am i kidding.
I'm very thin but no matter what I eat or how much I can't gain weight. apparently it'll be hard for me to get Gladiolus level muscles. fml
Same ;_;
You're kidding yourself, by thinking you're kidding yourself.
Sure you can dude, there's lots of "prompto" in real life.
Everybody can do it if they have determination and don't give up. The hard part is not working out, is doing it everyday and not giving in to your past ways.
And if it helps at all, I believe you can :)
Dont worry man, i too used to be a prompto too lmao your not alone
Great characterization for Prompto and Noct here. Never expected Promptos backstory to be like this. It's actually really inspiring, i never expected this from brotherhood.
I can't believe this is Prompto's backstory. Makes him even more adorable!
Also, him sniffing Lunafreya's letter for motivation is so in character, I love it :D
"If Prompto can lose weight so can I"
I want to see more people inspired by prompto
More people run
I mean I've been running, not because of prompto
but still
Prompto makes me want to run more
Can't we all be like prompto
Wishful thinking.
I honestly chose a salad last night instead of burgers because of this episode. =D
I'm over 400 lbs, and this inspired me and I got off my big butt and got outside. I didn't exactly run... it was something more along the lines of brisk walking while making breathing sounds like a dying walrus, but it's the first time I've done this in a long time, and now I'm really anxious to get my body back in shape like it used to be. i wasn't expecting this episode to be what it was, but I think it's great the back story Prompto has. Sorry, wanted to let you know that at least one person WAS inspired by this :)

Did you search for people burning and got here by accident? Cause this may not be the kind of "burn" you're into.
Anyways, you must go to the top.
When they say I got mad because of Duskendale, it is false, peasants. I got mad waiting for FFXV to release.
I have no idea what Final Fantasy is about, but the unhealthiest thing is this story is the fact that that poor kid had to get back from school each day and say, "I'm home!" to an empty house. No one but him to notice his progress or worse, share a meal with.
and that dog prompto healed grew up to be doge
So that's how the doge was a meme
And that dog died.
Girls talk to Noctis and hes like " I dont give a shit."
He is Sasuke in Final Fantasy from.
complete with hair
Which is awesome :D
Can you not
Jose S Good point
You're wrong buddy, Sasuke never smiles in the series. At least fucking Noctis shows some emotions towards someone as kid.
12:26 you can see how Noct looking at his belly and thinking how the hell this guy got so skinny
Love that they're fleshing these characters out! We'll be super invested in them when the game finally releases!
I want to play as fat Prompto in Playstation VR!
#fatpromptorunnerVR
Stand alone game
Actually takes you years to beat, and at the end he just talks to Noct and walks with him for 2 minutes. Best ending, best game.
or HTC VIVE. come on at least let PC gamers have some final Fantasy.
@ILikeFoxes Who is the final boss and how many forms they got? The Jogger or the Moogle in the restaurant selling him the fast food?
I've always thought Lunafreya was about the same age as Noctis. She looks a good deal older than him in here though.
Savin Wangtal the age gap is 4 years exact (so in game noct is 20 and shes 24)
Am I the only one who thought the guy that greets Prompto on every run when was supposed to be Gladiolus?
I can see what you mean but they have different hair color
I thought that was Ignis :o
that guys is so badass.. i mean he running without a raining coat in the middle of rain..
Speaking of Gladio and weight issues, check out this screenshot image of October to celebrate the season of food: cdn3.dualshockers.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/CRVaVlrUsAA8eFV.jpg
Nah, Gladio is three years older than Prompto and Noctis
Square Enix teaching us important life lessons. ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE, as long as you put your mind into it.
This made me tear up, I don't know why. I guess it was just cute to see how caring and determined Prompto is.
Prompto my man. An inspiration to everyone to get healthy
Chubby + Chibi
Omg so cute!!!
looooooool hey MT
Oh hai GreZone
Holy shit, Prompto was Mikey from Recess when he was younger!
This makes me love and respect Prompto so much more. Tiny Prompto's life situation hit me right in the feels.
It took me an embarrassing long time to realize who that blond kid was
Amount of time*
Right?! Lol me too 😅
Wow really?! I kinda instantly knew lol
took me 3 face palm to reply to you 10/10
It literally took my like 15 seconds. First I stared intensely, slightly confused, then my mouth dropped open xD
I looove how Noct totally remembers him, “what do you mean first time?” Just shows how observant and caring Noct is. He doesn’t have “airs” around him as a prince and remembers regular people. (Even if he is a little spoiled 🤣)
I didn't know Prompto has this kind of backstory~ Such a nice guy~
Be careful who you call ugly in high school..
Basically.
dude -_- i wanted to say this
IKR next thing you know you'll be the one ugly and they're be fine af later in life
Funny how the kids who are bullied, made fun of, and have low self-esteem turn out to be the most successful/attractive people later in life while still retaining their past experiences to still be kind and empathetic. Likewise, the ones who usually are seen as prodigies, talented, and cocky bullies early on, turn out to be unhygienic and most miserable humans for the rest of their lives.
Statistically, you're incorrect.
I didn't realize Square Enix put so much effort in building the FF characters backstory. I'm impressed.
why do i get the feeling prompto might die. with all the pictures he takes and his mood-making carefree attitude i feel afraid for him.
And the fact that Noctis asks him, "why wouldn't you?" when Prompto asks if she can meet Luna when they get to her.
Guess I'll have to play the game to find out. Gonna try to avoid spoilers on this.
Dimir Mastermind This anime and the movie doesn't have spoilers
SPOILER ALERT Noctis asks him 'Why wouldn't you?' and in the game luna dies before prompto could meet her how sad.
chill he doesn't die in the game but one of the four bros dies tho play the game to find out
He can't die because he's a main character and Noct needs his bros.
Prompto is me as fuck.
You wish you were as cool as Prompto lol.
Jk btw lol
I wish I could get in shape like Prompto LOL
KBomb Diggity You can do it! I'm currently in the process myself, 240 to 197 lbs so far!
He is so the best reject Cloud.
Me:
"I want it delivered ASAP, promto!" 😬
Prompto:
"I was named that for a reason!" 😃
I find it sooo adorable how Prompto changes for him :) Just so they could be friends together und Noctis was quite happy about it too, that someone treated him like a "person" and not as a "prince".
But the thing with the letter.... no. Just no!
hmm i like to smell something that has good fragrance to xD
I bet he never thought he'd be hanging around royalty yet alone being thanked by a princess, must be some good inspiration
Yeah maybe that was a bit off in a way not intended. Smell is an interesting way of experiencing something that could comfort you and maybe wasn't meant in the way we received it. But Prompto is totally adorable.
+Joshua Franklin Lunafreya isn't a princess.
Pause at 11:55
You're welcome.
Also.. 13:31 "Why wouldn't you?"
Noctis fucking jinxed it.
then so is practically every girl and maybe even guy here
+Naomi thankssss
Tell that to every guy who pauses when they see Cindy. I don't see why the tables can't be turned.
***** There's nothing wrong from her, aside from her completely impractical outfit, considering her profession. It's not about being wrong, it's about her being eye candy for guys. I don't mind or anything, I don't give it much thought. It's just, if us girls are pervs for wanting to stare at Prompto's nice abs, then guys are pervs for wanting to stare at Cindy's boobs. Again, don't really mind, hell, I've had a stare or two at her boobs, 'cause they're kind of just there. It's hard to miss them. But still, tables turned and all that.
LifesLover gurl preach!! so true!!! lolol
Could not stop smiling when seeing how devoted and determined Prompto was throughout this episode~
Never has a video game come with this much hype. A movie and an anime short series? Sex.
don't forget they have their own clothing line and they plan on making a car with Audi
Jesus. well i'm sold.
They live in literally another world, yet the bell chime is the most recognizable chime ever
I love how perfectly this fits into the rooftop scene at the motel. I'm not sure which came first: this episode or that part in the game, but it's so cool how it works with that scene in the game, like without retconning anything
they're really doing a good job with fleshing out these characters. I thought prompto seemed interesting before we got any type of detail, seeing this now makes me like him more as a person. can't wait to get to know everyone else.
