Hints From Other Couples?

I know there was that "What couples remind you of Cloud x Aeris?" thread, but this thread's a little different.

Does anyone else besides me see a bit of Cleris emulated in Lenne and Shuyin? A lot of people, for example, say that Cloud looks like Shuyin, and Lenne looks like Tifa. I agree about Cloud, but Lenne reminds me much more of Aeris. I noticed their body types first. Lenne is extremely thin, and Aeris is extremely thin. Lenne has light brown hair and gentle greenish-gold eyes, similar to Aeris. When I was watching the 1000 Words video, the small scene between Shuyin and Lenne almost seemed like the Cloud x Aeris scene we never got. ^_^

I also see Cleris emulated in Squall and Rinoa? And I don't just mean VIII-wise. There was that Itadaki picture of Aeris and Rinoa that surfaced online awhile back, and just recently we have a picture of Cloud back to back with Leon.

Maybe it's the Cleris in me who sees the hints emulated in other Final Fantasy couples (and I use Final Fantasy couples only because there are similarities in the way Nomura and his team do their work, which could point us in the right guessing direction for Advent Children). Does anyone else notice these?

Yes, I've noticed those too, apart from the FFX-2 things, because I haven't finished it.

CHRONO CROSS SPOILERS

Serge/Kidd is also a couple that's extremely similar to Cleris. You've got Serge and Leena, his childhood friend, at the beginning of the game, Serge meets the mysterious girl, Kidd, and after a few areas of the game, Serge loses Kidd for a while after turning into Lynx.

Kidd does come back, which is what's different from Cleris, but another similarity between her and Aeris is that they're very closely tied in with what's happening to the world(s). Also, Aeris has the White Materia, while Kidd has Schala's pendant. Coincidence? I think not. The part that also seems Cleris-y is that Kidd is always searching for Serge during the ending, like how Cloud's been alone for at least a while for the two years between FFVII and AC, and how he thought he could meet Aeris in the Promised Land.

I personally find a bit of Cleris in all the main FF couples after 7
SquallxRinoa- ...there's too many, they're too obvious, and I'm too tired :P
ZidanexGarnet- Garnet's got the typical main female thing goin' on(summoner, last of her kind, spiritual/magical, etc etc), and Zidane's the physical fighter. But personality wise they're a bit flip-flopped, still the opposites attract thing though. And at the end of the game, Garnet thinks Zidane is dead and yet still loves him, and (I think) intends to commit suicide to find him
TidusxYuna- Zidane and Garnet all over again.

Err...I'm really really sleepy, or else I'd write more but..I feel they're all really obvious
(And CloTi's? Aeris had long, brown hair too ;) And hers and Lenne's is lighter than Tifa's)

What I have noticed is, the 'childhood friends' never end up together. The hero always ends up with the mysterious beautiful girl he meets.
It's been like this since the old-school games like Chrono Trigger where Crono and Marle end up together instead of childhood friends Crono and Lucca.

Yeah, the hero usually never ends up with his childhood friend. He ends up with the girl he meets during the course of the game, and that girl ALWAYS has mysterious powers. (Marle, Aeris, Rinoa, Garnet, Kidd, Yuna)

I think that Yuri & Alice are similar to Cloud and Aerith and their Story and ending of Shadow Hearts 2 could be the perfect ending for Advent Children. It is a wonderful game!!

Chrono Cross Spoilers




Wait, in Chrono Cross, didn't Serge still end up with Leena in the end? He couldn't remember anything about his adventures anyway, including Kid and Schala. I assumed that even though Leena played a relatively small part in the game, she was the one that Serge marries in the end. I mean, Serge was pretty much her boyfriend, not just a friend in whom she had an interest. One reason why I didn't like CC as much. <_<

Chrono Cross Spoilers:


Well, there's that picture near the book during the "good" ending. It shows Kidd in a wedding-type dress, standing next to a guy. You can't see his face, but I'd bet it's Serge.

It is Serge, there's a caption next to the picture in one of the CC artbooks. ;) I also remember an interview with one of the directors, where he talked about Serge's love for Kidd.

Really?! I never looked at the CC art books so I wouldn't know. I always wondered who the mystery guy was... Was the picture taken before or after CC? Probaly after, but would that mean that Serge and Kid met again? Then there was that part where Kid was wearing the white dress at the beach... Could it be possible that she actually did find Serge?! Uh oh, I wonder how Leena would take it, I doubt she'd let Serge go without a fight. :D

I was talking to my friend about that at school today, he was all like, "Well I mean I see Cloud and Aerith toether.....but other FF's do not have proof." But if you look at the pattern, it is the Warrior and the Summoner/healer.

FFVIII

Squall: Warrior

Rinoa: Summoner/healer (really she is a sorceress thingy but screw it that is the same thing)

FFX:

Tidus: Warrior

Yuna: Summoner/ healer(depending on if you choose her to heal.)

I never played FF9 so I do not know about that but if Garnet is a ummoner/healrer person then yeppers it is a pattern.......from every FF I have played.

Yes, Garnet is indeed a white mage and summoner. I love Garnet and Zidane. I have to agree that the main pairings in FF from VII on much white mage/warrior. I haven't played some of the older ones yet though, so I don't know about some of those.

Hmmmm...would Denzel and Marlene count? They remind me SO much of a mini-Cloud and mini-Aerith!

I agree with this comparison a lot and I'm glad that you brought it up actually. ^_^

It's easy to see the similarities between Aeris and Marlene from the very cute ribbon-and-braids, to her seeming association with flowers (I thought it very cute that she was holding the flower, almost as if the default choice was to give it to her and NOT Tifa). She's very innocent and cute, but stubborn and strong-willed (as you can tell by her line about chewing out Cloud when he gets back, " And when he does, we' ll give him some good predicament! ")

Denzel and Cloud are also very similar, perhaps from the fact that Denzel was supposedly "raised" by Cloud. I can't quite comment more, unfortunately, as I have not seen the movie yet. :lol:

However, I do want to make some points about their relationship together. They're obviously close and they have their cute moments as well including this:

possible spoiler
not really
Marlene is at Tifa' s place, beside Denzel' s bed, praying to Planet itself:

" Please, do not take him away from me! "


and this:

not really spoiler-but still
 
Denzel, after asking Marlene if his illness had made him look so bad, wonders:

" Cloud... where is he? "
