Denzel; Who is he...really...

To be honest, when I first saw Denzel, I though he was Cloud and Aerith's
child. :P Like when I first saw Sora in Kingdom Hearts.
But my friend denied it saying, " How is that possible when she's dead?"
Of course, I kicked her out of my room after she said that.

I mean look at him! He could've gotten his blue eyes from Cloud and brown
hair from...you know who...Aerith! It couldn't be Tifa cause she has black hair
(same goes to Yuffie).

But really, who is he? I mean, I know he's an orphan Tifa and Cloud are
taking care of. But why him only? I mean there are a lot of other kids out
there in midgar....but when I saw the group picture, it was only Cloud, Denzel, Marlene and Tifa. What's going on?

In the movie, there wasn't really much of a description of him. My CloTi
friend is scaring me that he is Cloud and Tifa's son. Noooooo~~~~!!!! > <

The answer to your questions is a little gem known as 'On the Way To A Smile.'

Here ya go : http://e.1asphost.com/ffwebnovel/

The official web novel from SE. Denzel is *not* Cloud and Tifa's.

I like to think he is in a way, Cloud and Aeris's because Cloud did believe that Aeris brought Denzel to him. ^_^

The similarities Denzel has to Aeris and Cloud is amazing, but unfortuneatly he isn't their child. ;(

But that's what I would imagine their children to look like! All cute and stuff! ^_^

The others have answered who Denzel is, but the question remains-- why the special treatment? There are a bunch of other sick orphans around as well, and I'm sure Cloud must've run into a couple slumped around sickly. Why the special attention to Denzel?

As CoT has shown, Cloud initially thought that Aerith was the one who'd brought Denzel to him. He was later "corrected" by Tifa (depending on how you view the scene) but it doesn't change the fact that Cloud thought that at first.

I'd say there's your reason right there why Cloud has a special bond with Denzel-- he thought the boy had been brought to him by Aerith. ^_^

...And hardly because he's the supah-sekret lovechild between him and Tifa. :rolleyes:

I didn't think it was Cloud and Aerith's OR his and Tifa's. I just thought he was an orphan that Cloud grew a bond with. I don't remember the scene where Tifa corrects him, but I remember him saying something like that vaugly. Can someone send a script or tell me where it is?

Yes, Denzel has/had his own parents, though they died. Cloud is just taking care of him, so he's not Denzel's step father.

Okay, I get how he's not Cloud And Tifa's or Cloud and Aerith's son, but
the question still remains why does he get to be closer to them than the
other kids....

Or is it just me thinking to deeply?

But I do support the Denzel x Marlene couple! Poor, Barret having to
have to stress out about his daughter already.

I also do want to believe Aerith brought him to Cloud ^ ^

Digging this one up, yo.

Cloud found Denzel sick and unconscious outside Aeris' church. He brought him back to Seventh Heaven, where Tifa and Cloud effectively adopted him. It's likely that because Cloud found him outside AERIS' church (he believed she sent the boy to him), and Tifa insisted on Denzel becoming apart of their 'family' that they have a close bond.

Denzel isn't just one of the other orphans they look after; he actually lives with them and is also close friends with Marlene and Tifa. This is why, in the Bahamut battle scene, Barret says something along the lines of "You stay back and look after your mother." He's referring to Tifa. I think a better English translation for 'okaasan' (mother in Japanese) in this context would be 'guardian'. Because Tifa and Cloud are Denzel's guardians.

I'm sorry if I sound stupid....what is CoT am I missing something??? :no:


if he was outside the church then I agree that he was brought by Aerith and well Tifa takes careof him and all so she's like a mama to him ...I guess...

"CoT" or "Case of Tifa" is Tifa's story, which takes place between the events of FFVII and AC. Have you had a chance to read it yet?

I actually think that the fact that Cloud (and Tifa) is adopting all these children is because he doesn't wanna have children with Tifa.

Just use Marlene as an example, I am sure Barrett will be able to take care of her himself now after the Final Battle, why still bother leaving Marlene to Tifa? I would guess probably because they know that Cloud & Tifa will never become a 'real' family, that's why they are adopting and taking care of all these children just to 'try' to be a 'real' family.

That's just my opinion though :sun:

The movie shows that Tifa takes care of TWO children: Marlene and Denzel.

Not the other kids in the movie. I'm sorry to say, she's not running an orphanage.

As for Barret, he left to find oil (which he did) in AC. Since Marlene lives with Tifa before pre FFVII, it's not a stretch of the imagination that he'd leave her to Tifa's care. In CoT, Tifa tells people Marlene is her daughter.
