I have heard rumors from friends that in the japanese version of final fantasy 7 cloud was homosexually in love with sephiroth. Any one who played the jap version of ff7 (and understood it) pleas confirm/deny this rumor (also so i can win $20 in the bet i made with the guy who told me this :D )

Nothing was removed from FF7's American version, in fact, stuff was put in, like Emerald and Ruby.

I suggest new friends.

Any and all sexual or romantic relationships between Cloud and Zack or Cloud and Sephiroth are simply fandom. Shonen-ai and Yaoi are very popular in Japan, and most every game that comes out has unofficial 'doujinshi' made about it, usually with homosexual themes. It's not true at all.

many belived Zack and Cloud were an 'iteam' of sorts,due to the flashback in the basment when Zack leans on cloud.Same goes for SephirothXZack,CloudXSephiroth,because of them being so close in Soldier.They were just friends,in my opinion,and i dont think thatsquare would do that

Yeah, but that isnt a date as in 'kissy kissy', it's just them hanging out during the date sequence. Japan is a country very open with sexual things, so ya never know, but it's not the case in this game.

I don't go for random homosexuality theories in FF games! (The theories about Kuja were enough)

BUT I can see some points. I don't think Sephiroth and Cloud had any kind of love for each other! But as for Zack. They were certainly close - close enough for Zack to dress Cloud (who was, at the time, incapacitated) and follow up by helping to shape his life. Enough that the guy even decided to immitate him in the end. He was most likely being a really good friend, but other thoughts do occur...

It is, however, completely true that Palmer is Reeve's big huggy bear.

Of coarse Cloud wasn't homosexual towards Sephiroth, it'd just ruin the story all together and I don't think that Squaresoft would have re-made a whole game again within the set amount of time.

But I see you've already won the $20 bucks, so enjoy! xD

I don't see how it would ruin the story. Aside from the fact that it would seriously freak out half the fans of the game. Secondly, if they had to remove anything, even something that large, while dubbing, a few text changes and scene cuts could easily do so. There's been a lot of very big changes done when games and anime are brought to America, because we arent as open a society as Japan, and as a whole we generally associate cartoons and video games with children.

I opened this thread thinking it'd be another thread bitching at Cloud for not banging Tifa as soon as she showed an interest in him, and I'm glad it's not.

I still highly doubt it's true, tho'. He wouldn't be gay in any case; he'd be bisexual, 'cause he quite obviously has a thing for Tifa by the end of disc two.

Mmm indeed ^_^

On a completely different game, in Shadow Hearts, one of the NPC's was openly gay and admitted that he had a crush on the main character. Nothing happened, but still.....

If Cloud and Sephiroth *were* gay, I'd still play it. I'd play it more even :D

Japanese culture just has an affinity for effeminate males. Most male lead characters, whether it be a game, comic, or TV show, are rather feminine, which almost invariably leaves open interpretations of their sexuality. There also isn't some manly "must not touch other guys" mind-set, so some actions between these girly-boys may lead people to believe they have a "thing" for each other.

They're just fruity is all.
