Spoiler: Significance of...

[ohyo]

The Wolf? Saw it several times throughout the film. perhaps Aerith's reincarnation through the lifestream? or does it have anything to do with Cloud's 'lion' motif? Am I completely off? It was kinda like 'where's waldo' to me the second time i went through. T_T

[Shoden]

It is like Cloud's guardian spirit or something. It's kinda like symbolism, the wolf is fenrir which is the name of Cloud's bike the pattern on his shoulder pad and his earing.

[ohyo]

Whoa Fenrir is like his 'familiar' or something; or is it just his 'guardian'? I've seen Amano-cloud, i dont remember fenrir being there. Was this something I missed in KH?

[Shoden]

more like a guardian or a watcher.

[Winter Nights]

Yeah, prolly a guardian or something. Since FF7, nor KH, brings up any such thing.. Sounds like it's just something SE added for [img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img]s and giggles mostly. So the movie would appear deeper.

A post I made in another thread:

---------------------------------------------------
something i really liked, i think it's open for interpretation:
fenrir, or the wolf appearances
a wolf kinda symbolises a strong sense of independance and leadership, but often you see a wolf running with a PACK

Cloud kinda reminded me of a leading/independant "wolf" who didn't have his pack in the beginning of the movie (or during the 2 years)
but as the gang gradually rejoined, it made him "cloud" again, the one who leads the pack on

This should answer this question and some more, too. ^__^
