Favorite FFVII Fanart

Well I mean how different could you expect Cloud to look? I highly doubt there will be a wholesale change.

 

[Gary Caelum]

Yeah that's what I thought. But why did they specifically tell us about it?

 

[ultima786]

May 2017 though. They did say they were going to change the character designs a bit. So it might look completely different now.
I hope not. That looks pretty much like Advent Children Cloud but with the original outfit.

Honestly this looks a tad better than the FF7:R design to me. His hair seems a bit different, more volume and better shaped. Also naturally his clothes are different but they are baller status.

 

[Gary Caelum]

You mean it looks better than the one we saw in the footage late 2015? I'd agree. I thought Cloud looked a bit weird in that footage. Too skinny. Hair looked weird and clumpy. Facial structure was a bit off.

How’s he supposed to walk with the blade right behind his calf? Is that why he leans forward when he runs?

 

[ForceStealer]

Because it's not sharp on that side. This is why I hate so much when they show the blade upside down in Dissidia and such

 

[Ite]

But surely it’s not feasible to trek across great distances with one leg restricted thus? I don’t care if you’re 21 and in tip top shape, you’ll have mondo back problems.

 

[Cthulhu]

Not just from the constricted movement but also the sheer weight of that fucking thing,

 

[Clement Rage]

I expect that's where the superpowers come in. There is no practical way to carry a sword that big.

 

[Theozilla]

We've already seen how his run cycles look like in game, they have the sword swing up and out to the side while moving to avoid his legs/feet clipping through the sword. They did same in Crisis Core IIRC.

 

[Ite]

Looks like his right arm is constantly bashing into it, moving it out of the way so his leg is cleared. Ouch XD

 

[Roger]

It's also like one inch away from dragging on the floor.

 

[ForceStealer]

I'm amused that this discussion sounds like we're just learning that Cloud carries a really big sword.

Spoiler: Are y'all saying Cloud's sword is impractical?!

Thanks for “stealing” my profile icon, newbie! ?

While browsing through obscure Japanese blogs about FF7 I found a link to a site that now only exists in the Wayback Machine. It claims to be the source of these tiny gifs...

Spoiler

The artist made them in anticipation of the release of Advent Children. I vaguely recall seeing at least the Cloud gif back on ACF, so there's a nostalgia factor that makes me post these here.

This was always such a weird, fun little room in the game
