Probably many are not familiar with the name Makai Toushi SaGa. This game was published in the west under the name The Final Fantasy Legend.
It's the first entry in the Saga series (Saga Frontier, Romancing Saga) and for better marketing outside of Japan, Square used the Final Fantasy name for it..
The game is having a turn-based fighting system similar to the first Final Fantasy games. According to some magazines, it was considered one of the greatest Game Boy games. It also got a remastered for the Wonderswan Color, with better graphics and many quality of life improvements (more in another post)
This game, costing around 20-30€ for a CIB, is not that expensive and also pretty easy to find. I even got my copy from a local retro gaming store. It's nice to get Japanese games in your own city, instead of waiting for them for weeks while they travel thousands of kilometers.
If you are interested in playing it without a Game Boy or emulator, you can buy it digitally for the Nintendo Switch as part of the Collection of SaGa - Final Fantasy Legend.
