Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Devs Comment on the Cloud, Aerith, Tifa Love Triangle

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Developers Weigh In on Cloud's Love Triangle

The enduring love triangle between Cloud, Tifa, and Aerith in the Final Fantasy 7 universe continues to fuel passionate debate among fans. Even with Aerith's tragic fate in the original game, the relationships Cloud shares with both women remain a central point of discussion, especially intensified by Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth.

Recent comments from Rebirth's producer, Yoshinori Kitase, and director, Naoki Hamaguchi, offer further insight into the complexities of these relationships. The developers discussed new scenes featuring Cloud and Aerith, including a dreamlike "date," acknowledging the diverse interpretations these scenes evoke among players. Hamaguchi described Aerith's role as almost sisterly, highlighting her understanding of her destiny and her influence on Cloud's path. Kitase, however, playfully countered by calling Cloud a "lucky guy," deeply considered by two women, a remark likely to further ignite the ongoing fan debate. This difference in perspective might reflect the evolution of the story and characters' relationships across the franchise's lifespan, considering Kitase's role as director of the original Final Fantasy 7.

Regardless of individual preferences, the enduring passion surrounding Cloud's relationships underscores the lasting impact of the original game. The anticipation for the third installment in the Remake trilogy is high, with fans eager to see how Aerith's presence continues to shape Cloud's journey and the dynamics between the three characters.
