Squall and Cloud seperated at birth!!

[*__*)]

It's not just Cloud and Squall, but Final Fantasy VII & VIII are so much alike, right? Heres' what I could think of, but it's not all.

I Names

Both Cloud and Squall are names dealing with water.

II Personality

Squall's catch phrase in VIII is "whatever", while in VII someone call's Cloud "Mr. whatever" They are both loners by nature.

III Trains

Trains are all over 7 & 8, battles are faught in them, etc. (VI also had the phantom train, Square loves the trains!)



IV Loving somone helpless.

In 7 Tifa stayed right beside Cloud while he had mako poisoning.
In 8 Squall was there for Rinoa while she was in a coma.


V Coma's

Both Tifa and Rinoa were in comas

VI Special Characters

In 7 a main character is special by being an ancient (Aeris)

In 8 a main character is special by being a sorceress. (Rinoa)

VII The main characters have the same taste in women
Both Squall and Cloud have a liking for the fair and dark haired & eyed, Rinoa and Tifa.

VIII an early loss of a parent
Characters in both VII & VIII suffer the loss of either a mom or a dad at a young age.

IX Fireworks
They're in both, in VII there is music called "Interrupted By Fire Works", very nice, and in VIII Squall and Rinoa are literally interrupted by fire works during the ball room scene.


Is there any more? I can't think of anymore.

dude ff7 was a big hit right?
so square decided that since people liked clouds characters so much they put that character into Squall and it was a good idea as u can see

and ff7 was a big hit in general so they based a lot of stuff from ff7 into ff8 cause they knew people would like it and they did

[*__*)]

yeah, but I like the way it was done in VIII better

[GunbladeMaster]

cas technology advances
and so do graphics

[Black Angel]

Hes right..........

[* White Aeris *]

True, true.

III Trains

Trains are all over 7 & 8, battles are faught in them, etc. (VI also had the phantom train, Square loves the trains!)

Some similarities, yes, but i highly doubt that is grounds for saying they were seperated at birth.

IV Loving somone helpless.

In 7 Tifa stayed right beside Cloud while he had mako poisoning.
In 8 Squall was there for Rinoa while she was in a coma.

One thing wrong with that, Cloud didnt love Tifa. For Squall are Rinoa, the feeling was mutual.

VI Special Characters

In 7 a main character is special by being an ancient (Aeris)

In 8 a main character is special by being a sorceress. (Rinoa)

Rinoa is not the main charecter, Squall is. Again, Aeris is not the main charecter Cloud is. and what does ancients have to do with sorceresses? I suppose you can also argue and say Angelo (rinoa's dog) and Red Xlll were also related in some way.

VII The main characters have the same taste in women
Both Squall and Cloud have a liking for the fair and dark haired & eyed, Rinoa and Tifa.

Cloud, DOES NOT love Tifa like that. Tifa was just a rebound for when Aeris died. No offence Tifa fans.

[The Second Advent]

of course FF8 was way better than FF7. Though it is somewhat of a letdown. Still one of the best square titles though.....Hey look who has awaken.

[Black Angel]

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr..............*mumbling at the fact that she believes that squall and cloud were seperated at birth*

[enigma1234]

It's just a coincidence about Squall & Cloud.

[* White Aeris *]

Cloud, DOES NOT love Tifa like that. Tifa was just a rebound for when Aeris died. No offence Tifa fans.

You tell 'em!!

[Black Angel]

Mmmmmmmmmmmm.....................*sniff*..........................U mean people!

[The Second Advent]

You tell 'em!!

I take it you don't like Tifa, or you really like Aeris. lol
