    You are right cuz the genes would not work. Our genetics would be so much different from his. The number of chromosomes in the cell have an important factor when creating hybrids, I am not too sure how but I remember something about it. If Nanaki had about the same number of chromosomes as humans, maybe it would be possible...It been two years since I took a bio class, so I forget a bit about the genetics part...

    That why meantioned if he had the same number of chromosomes as us, cuz I know a dog (canines, same family) doesn't...or I am pretty sure they don't.

    I think the DNA, humans have 46 which are set into 23 pairs.

    you do know that you guys are talking about a fictional character...

    but any two similar species can breed together AND PRODUCE A VIABLE OFFSPRING if the offspring has an even number of chromosomes. An organism with an odd number of chromosomes would not produce offspring but it can still exist (look at a mule - you know a cross with a horse and an ass...hah hah ass.. hah hah...nah just kidding) - this is called aneuploidy. but if the offspring was to breed with another of the same type (either impossible or not yet proven in animals) by a means other than sexual reproduction the odd number would be multiplied by 2 and therefore making the new organism even number of chromosomes hence it can produce viable offspring - this is called polyploidy and happens in plants (wheat, rice, barley, and grass types are all mostly polyploidy) - too much biology i know but oh well

    If we really think about it, maybe Nanaki WAS injected but because of a different species he was not affected.

    As for the AC comment if all characters that came in contact with Lifestream got Geostigma, how come Tifa, who was in the Lifestream with Cloud, didn't get Geostigma?

    No, if we really think about it, there is no evidence whatsoever saying that Nanaki was injected with JENOVA cells. None. Speculating that it didnt effect him because of his species is just grasping at straws.

    From Final Fantasy VII:

    PRESIDENT SHINRA: "Hojo. How's the girl?"
    HOJO: "As a specimen, she is inferior to her mother. I'm still in the process of comparing her to her mother, Ifalna, but for now the difference is 18%."
    P. SHINRA: "How long will the research take?"
    HOJO: "Probably 120 years. It's probably impossible to finish in our lifetime. Or in the lifetime of the specimen too, for that matter."
    HOJO: "That's why we're thinking of breeding her. Then we could create one that would withstand our research for a long time."
    P. SHINRA: "What about the Promised Land? Won't it hinder our plans?"
    HOJO: "That's what I need to plan. The mother is strong... and yet has her weaknesses."
    P. SHINRA: "That concludes our meeting."

    Later in the game:

    HOJO: "My precious specimen..." (Editor's note: Gollum, Gollum, Gollum... )
    TIFA: "Precious specimen...? Is it going to be used for a biological experiment?"

    Later:

    HOJO: "That's right. I recommend you think things out logically before you make any rash moves. Now, bring in the Specimen!"
    (Enter Aeris and Red XIII.)
    AERIS: "Cloud, help!"
    CLOUD: "What do you think you're doin'?"
    HOJO: "Lending a helping hand to an endangered species... Both of them are on the brink of extinction... If I don't help, all these animals will disappear."
    TIFA: "...animal? That's terrible! Aeris is a human being!"

    I could have quite a perverted imagination, but I think Hojo just wanted to mate Aeris and Red XIII, just like how you can mate Chocoboes during Discs 2 and 3.

    Like TheAbominatrix said Advent Children proves that Nanaki is not injected with Jenova cells.

    NO!!! He was simply going to use Nanaki to keep Areis in place.It's OBVIOUS how the Breeding programe was gonna be done...

    Stiltzkin was behind it all. Travelling round the world, even writing those fake letters! All an insidious plot to cover up the fact that he was blackmailing Hojo into such twisted things. Pity Hojo. He was at the mercy or a demented megalomaniacal moogle!

    Hojo is sick.


    The truth is there.....

    If Hojo tattoed a number on all experiments, and not only those that were injected with Jenova cells, then why was Aeris not tatooed with a number if she was also a specimen. And what exactly is the proof from Advent Children that he was not injected?

    I think Aeris wasnt tattoed because she wasnt realy experimented on, or they didnt have time 2 do that yet. And i belive the prof that Nanaki from AC was that he didnt have geostigma
