Bravely Default: For the Sequel in Japan.
'The Art of Bravely' art book features a message from Yoshida,
as reported by Siliconera, that explains, "This is a personal message of mine, but I'd like to say thank you for all the support these past 18 years. I have decided to leave Square Enix, but I believe our relationship will continue going on."
