I would hardly called Tifa attacking Sephiroth in the Nibelheim Reactor a fight. I was surprised that she was able to pick up that lengthy sword in the first place.

I believe in the power of humanity.
Yeah she was like what 15/16? Swords aren't that heavy but one that's about 6 and a half feet long might just be heavy! When I picked up this huge claymore type thing in rl I was like "it's heavy, but lighter than I expected..", so a 21 year old guy should be able to use the masamune.
Nope. It's a fantasy. The Masamune weighs tons. Metric tons. Sephiroth is just so much "TEH AWSUM!!!1" that he can lift it.:rolleyes2Originally Posted by Suvious
I think you may be looking too far into it.
As I said, It's not about picking it up. It's about balance. if you use a big ass sword that has a certain center point and a certain length of handle and a certain counter-weight, and you then use one that is completely different, do you think you can swing it perfect? Sephiroth's blade is supposedly very very different from the others so Cloud can't use it from the balance. Thats what I think anyway.

Yari tifa lifts it.
Its big, but my sword is bigger.

Oh deary me...
This is bad...
Clouds one is thicker and bulkier
But Sephiroths is muuuch longer
OH NOEZ.
He took it too far.
Well at least Tifa doesnt have one. Cant say the same for Beatrix though.

Yeah Beatrix would beat you up with her hefty sword!
And Vivi Tifa temporarily has one! 0.0
Sephiroths sword is 8 feet long, and is too unwieldy for Cloud - or anyone -to use.
15 Tifa was able to pick it up due to sheer adrenaline brought on by rage and willpower. Using it was a different story.
There are many reasons Cloud would not use the imitation Masamune Blade. The first being that it's too weak to benefit anyone... like the Excalipoor.
Also, why in papa smurf would Cloud want to use the same weapon as his ultimate enemy? That would be a total mind smurf and Cloud's messed up as it is.
Also, in case it was confused at any point, there is no equality between the Masamune and the Murasame or Yoshiyuki. Both the Mura and the Yoshi are shorter than the Masamune by at least half.
BTW, I've previously mentioned the oddness of hero Cloud wielding a sword which some legends say is one of massacre while villain Sephiroth wields the holy sword Masamune (though it was depicted as an evil sword in Chrono).
Jack: How do you know?
Will: It's more of a feeling really.
Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?
Will: No.
If Demolition Man were remade today
Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
Huxley: NO!
Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
Huxley: You need to leave, John.
Spartan: But Huxley.
Huxley: Get out!
Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.
By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.
Masamune isn't a legendary sword in FFVII just because it is.
It's because of the man who uses it.
Tifa is actually Sephiroth's step-cousin-once-removed and she originally made the Masamune completely out of 3 day old mashed potatos which later solidified into the blade we all know today. That and she ate wheaties for breakfast that morning - that's why Tifa could use the legendary blade.
We can't use it because Tifas hands were all greasy when she used it so any attempt from us to wield it would only result in disaster.
Sephiroth's gloves are super sticky. That's why he can use it.
