Tifa: What? Cloud: What!?

Most importantly Jessie. Cloud still wants a pizza... and she owes him.

F

Yuffies is adorable

Yes it was the first time he looks that way at Tifa. First time he did was in Remake after Aerith wore the red dress and in Rebirth her stunning singing. On the date with Aerith, there where he holds Tifas hand, he holfs a yellow flower petal representing Aerith.

Doesn't matter. Squall, Tidus and Clive did it first.

@@kagekaiser9270 You're confusing 7 to 8 and 16.

Iconic. Some of the best or most iconic moments so far: Tifa's guiding at Nibelheim Aerith seeing open world Aerith singing This scene.

@@kagekaiser9270 zidane n princess garmet did too

​@@xizilionyizzexeliqer3897and petting the chocobo

The name of the musical track during that scene in the OG is called something like Drowned Out by Fireworks or something close to that but anyway I think the idea is that she said it in the OG but the booms from the fireworks kept it from being heard and then she didn't have the courage to say it again in the light of day when they were off the ride.

That’s funny because the cat side quest in Nibelheim has her call him out for staring at her all the time as a kid because she would always meet his eyes and then he’d quickly look away lol

@@BuddyChy Yeah, Cloud has always had a huge crush on Tifa. His whole story arc begins because of it. He was an awkward kid, and didn't like that the other kids would hang around Tifa, so he never spent much time with Tifa when they were kids. So he left to join Shinra, and be a SOLDIER so that he could be a big hero and be worthy of Tifa's time entirely on his own. And before the events of the game, where Cloud's brain is scrambled, that's effectively the last we see of "real Cloud" (which not so coincidentally is what Aerith asks of Cloud, to see the "real Cloud") a little boy, trying to impress a girl. We'll see if we see much more of this in part 3.

@@Kanriel well said, thank you! I only played remake for the first time last month and just finished rebirth, so those two games alone as well as Maximilian Dood’s videos are the extent of my FF7 knowledge. Can’t wait for part 3. Probably going to play CC soon as well.

He looks the same way he looked at Aerith wearing the red dress and where she sings. In the play of Loveless, Tifa and Yuffie talk about "True Hero". Aerith talk about "Love conquers". Date with the boys is Aerith there, because she is the default love of Cloud.

@@Matagu1 Cloud is in love with Aerith and Tifa equally imo. Aerith may be the default, canon date, but that in no way diminishes his feelings and relationship with Tifa.

Cloud & Tifa are from Nibelheim.

They kind of are, as people from Nibelheim (Cloud and Tifa) and Gongaga (Zack) are referred to as being "country folk," in the game, which I guess they localized around using certain patterns of speech in the western releases. But it's absolutely part of the lore that they are not city folks and so they don't talk as such.

@@alejandrocastellanos7139 another big hint is Tifa UwU cowgirl outfit xD

They had sex in the OG, right?

The way he treats yuffie during the date is so funny he's such an emo dick

I don't know how spicy it will be, but I bet they'll have something for it. Probably another kiss then fade to black and have them wake up together. Not that different from the original if I had to guess. It'll just look a whole lot better, lol.

@talmanes4589 yeah. Of course, they can't show everything but I will say... if Rebirth used this scene to add shit and affirm their relationship, then that scene under the Highwind will have EXTRA Clarity 🤣

@talmanes4589 forgive me, friend but what's with the Aggression? Light hearted banter aside, I wasn't disrespectful. If Claerith OR Cloti shippers wanna pull fake shit out of thin air, then it'll be called out, regardless of whether or not it's by me. I was just sharing my opinions in a light hearted manner. Not worth throwing a temper tantrum, you know? Or did you mean to reply to someone else? Because nowhere was the word Blame used by me until this here reply

@talmanes4589 lil bro really out here snappin on the wrong guy 🤣

Alternate timeline.

@@TonyKanameKuran thanks for adding nothing

@@jk844100 How the fuck am I adding nothing? Everything you see is an ILLUSION!

@@TonyKanameKuran the phrase “alternate timeline” with absolutely no explanation or context adds nothing. If you’re going to chime in at least give an explanation of what you’re trying to add.

@@jk844100 What part of ILLUSION don't you fucking understand?

There're two variations of Barret's, Yuffie's and Red's date, one version of the Aerith's one and another date scene with Vincent, Cid and Cait together so, to be fair, you can do at least 8 different playthroughs where this kiss doesn't happen at all. 😅 Kinda sweet scene though.

And yet it's the only character that gets a kiss. She's also the only character who they constantly tease a kiss with over remake and rebirth. Tifa is the Canon date

@@Firebird1968 That's a little bit of a stretch here. Honestly, all these crazy shippers all around social media have been pushing too hard for their cause lately and they've started to lose sight of the point. I've played FF7 since 97, then I've done multiple playthroughs of Remake in recent years and I think I can say without a doubt that I've dated Tifa just as many times as Aerith. From my point of view, I'd say Aerith's date makes for a slightly better story narratively speaking, because of all the drama, but the truth is both relationships make total sense. Aerith has the kind of bubbly personality that completes perfectly gloomy and solitary character traits like the ones shown by Cloud (especially when said bubbliness is a facade that hides some profound sadness). On the other hand, Tifa and Cloud are each other's anchor in life. They've known one another for all their lives, to the point they don't even realize they were never that close growing up. They totally should end up together at some point but, to be perfectly honest, Tifa isn't a great match up for Cloud at that point of the story. She only becomes one in Cd2 in the OG... but if people prefer her character, you can say she's still a pretty solid and logical choice, so their relationship can still work even on disc 1. Aerith and Tifa both play a major role in Cloud's development. Aerith is the one that helps Cloud reconnect with his humanity after five years bathed in a tank full of dead people memory. The first time he genuinly laughs in OG is when they escape from the rooftops and the first time he becomes proactive instead of going through the motion is when he chooses to release her from Shinra building. Tifa is the one that helps Cloud remember who he really is later on. He becomes whole only because of her support. Is that really that hard to believe he can have genuine feelings for both of these girls ? 😅

@Oleus never said he didn't have feelings for both girls. But aerith clearly states that her feelings for cloud are because of zach and how he reminds her of him and shes trying to learn who cloud is beyond that. We all know aeriths fate. Cloud and Aerith never even make it to first base and well they can't because of what happens to her. That leaves one and only one person the only one that he's made it to 1st base with in rebirth and a home run in the OG "under the highwind" in disc 3.

Well, Aerith said in OG (and in Rebirth since it's basically the same dialogue) she got attracted or at least interested in Cloud at first because he reminded her of her first love, which is kinda logical since he's based most of his demeanor on Zack's movements and fighting style with a little bit of Sephiroth added in the mix. But she never said she didn't get attracted to Cloud after spending some time with him, quite the contrary in fact... The problem is when people want one ship or the other to be "the canon one" because there is supposedly more feelings shown here or there. That's just not the case and the game tries very hard to make you feel things are more complicated than just that between all these characters. Tifa herself says things are more complex for Aerith than the simple "oh yeah, her character belongs with Zack" some want to believe in. If anything, devs are depicting Tifa and Cloud's relationship as being more physical because both characters need a physical connection to express their affection despite the lack of psychological comprehension they share at that point. There is not any serious proof one of the ships shows more attachment or affection than the other to be honest. That's just conjectures on people's part. But then again, if people want to believe Cloud belongs with Tifa, that works fine and the scene is really cute so that's no big deal. Saying its necessarily canon is the problem.

I agree with that.

The singer Loren Allren says in an interview with the composer that for the song she wanted to get to know Aerith well and depict her relationship with cloud. You can look up the interview.

@@astrea4020 According to the plot, that's true. It's not wrong that she likes and sings about Cloud. Not everyone likes only one person in their life. But there's no denying she could reunite with Zack.

​@@HanhNguyen-vx5usits both. Even Tifa says Aerith's feelings are more complicated than just pining after Zack. Pretty much every path hints at Cloud and Aerith's bond/feelings for each other, its just more subdued here

Its also a reference to Cloud's "Promised Land" dialogue from the original game. Like Tifa said, Aerith's feelings for Cloud/Zack are complicated.

Yes

Mayby

@@hosurosh4846 Strongest possibility.

Certified canon date.

always is

Did Cloud also hold Yuffies hand while Aerith was singing or did he hold a yellow flower petal? I am curious.

Nah Yuffie tries to kiss cloud but she doesn't go for it. But Cloud takes it as funny

omg his date is so cute though! he becomes such a puppy haha.

@@Runebee the date is what sold his adolescent voice for me! It kind of felt like those days when you spoil your dog with all their favourite things and then they are super loving towards you. This game is incredible

It’s gonna happen in part 3 when we get to Rocket Town.

Part 3 lol

Cloti is CANON ❤️

I suggest that if you ever have the time to play the OG so you can understand why Cloud and Tifa share that close bond. And then watch Advant Children because there is a reason why Cloud is depressed he has survivals guilt. In the OG there is nothing ambiguous once you beat the game its pretty obvious what they feel for eachother. And after AC they are still by eachothers side. Part 3 will show the crux of Cloud and Tifa's relationship.

Don't look too deep into the ending in regards to Cloud and Tifa. That part of the story is where they are at their lowest points emotionally, Cloud feels like he failed to save Aerith from death and Tifa lost another very close friend especially since you see how down she was about Jessie. Also sephiroth has a firm hold on cloud's mind at the end of rebirth. Once he gets lost to the lifestream in the north crater and gets his self restored in Mideel it will make more sense. That's where Cloud and Tifa should get there resolution to their story arc

It's not canon, it's player's choice with the default date being Aerith's one. Why? It's been majorly presented by developers in trailers, the skywheel in the chapter icon only has that angle in Aerith's date, also only Aerith is princess Rosa in the credits.

@@karistanstrihart it's Canon. Get over it

Tho I prefer Cloud with Tifa, I dont agree with the whole "Aerith trying to get over her ex by using Cloud". A statement like that only serves to diminishes the actual relationship Aerith built with Cloud. Yes, she did see some trait of Zack in Cloud but never have I thought she was interested in Cloud because he has some trait of Zack. She even say that in the game. Not exactly word for word😂😂 but you can get my point.

Maybe at the start of their friendship she took an interest because he had some trait of Zack but over the course of Remake and Rebirth, that changed.

@@supremeking3256 Genetically enhanced soldier laced with mako poisoning.

It is, just gotta do it when he reloads! You just have to get it off instantly, since Braver takes a little while.

It's Braver but the timing is SOOOO HARD to get right. I got it once on accident and then almost never again since then lol

Triple Slash works better than Braver

I think it makes perfect sense that it depends on which partner you choose.

No Marlene lol the other dude

If you wanted Tifa, what you need to do is show more affections to her and help her during battles. I can't spoil you, but I'm sure you will keep trying.

She is singing about cloud...

@@emperorpalpatine4953 How the fuck is she singing about Cloud? According to the lyrics, it's about her boyfriend Zack Fair. Check out Crisis Core FFVII. Furthermore, read the novel Traces of Two Pasts.

@TonyKanameKuran You have got to be kidding me man. It's confirmed to be about Cloud by both the singer and Nobou uematsu. Or you can use common sense and figure that out for yourself.

@@emperorpalpatine4953 It's not confirmed at all, troll. You've fucking failed to realize that the song "Loveless" is evidently connected to CRISIS CORE. The lyrics is basically all about Aerith's true love Zack. But if you think that song is about Cloud, Aerith knows that he only loves Tifa. "Don't take her (Tifa) for granted." -Aerith Gainsborough.

Fan service my nuts. The kiss was iconic. Furthermore, it's officially canon. Once upon a time in Nibelheim, there were Cloud & Tifa. Since 1997, they were inseparable. Right now, they're true lovers.

no its canon deal with it boomer

and I like it. So what? it's fan service, so it's a bad game => cool, you can leave and play something else. it's fan service but not in favor of you => that's too bad, it means this game is not for you, play something better or sth that give fan service to you to enjoy.

I'd say it's just player's choice, right now the canon or default choice is Aerith's date (the skywheel angle from the completed chapter trophy icon is only present in Aerith's date, and only Aerith is shown as princess Rosa in the credits), but the developers said multiple times you can choose whoever you want and all are valid choices, even Cait Sith's one, or Yuffie's.

@@karistanstrihart Congratulations… you’ve been CLICKBAITED! Although Aerith was shown in the end credits… it’s NOT the default date scene on the Gondola. Furthermore… you’re ignoring the fact that Cloud AND Tifa’s plaques are also in the game. In conclusion… this is evidently Aerith’s farewell. She’s dead. Sephiroth has ended the Ancient’s life. This is Aerith’s ultimate swan song. She may return alongside her boyfriend Zack in the conclusion. At the end, the immortal Aerith has said her final word, “Goodbye.” To be concluded…

The realization is Cloud cannot kiss Aerith because she have feelings for her boyfriend Zack. Furthermore, Zack is in the alt timeline. SPOILER: Sephiroth had killed Aerith.

God I swear why do people have to dump on a character and reach for straws to make them look bad…All these characters are flawed one way or another, doesn’t make them bad people, and Tifa throughout this whole story is strong physically but always weak emotionally, she’s not as outgoing and extroverted as Aerith, Tifa is kind and always tries to please everyone to a fault, a habit that Red and Aerith told her she shouldn’t feel obligated to be, so I doubt Tifa is this conniving-self serving character your making her out to be

Do you people just see Tifa in a thumbnail and paste this?

Honestly it’s like anytime a Tifa thumbnail is posted the Aerith sycophants come out with pitch forks, and I like Aerith imo the 2nd most important character in FF7, but if we’re talking about love, objectively it’s Tifa all the way she was the one who mended Cloud’s distorted psyche, she was the one who stayed by his side in his time of need, when the world was coming to an end she wanted to spend it with Cloud, Cloud same thing being a SOLDIER, putting himself in harms way as a kid on the collapsing bridge, being ashamed that he didn’t live up to that SOLDIER standard it was all for Tifa, what more proof is needed

Pure copium.

clerith cope on new levels
