Talk:Tifa

It's pretty obvious that cloud, tifa, and sephiroth are connected in someway, but how? What are your inputs?

maybe the reason they are connected is because they are all from FFVII and have close ties there?

I object. Though they are all from FFVII, Yuffie, Cid and Aerith never quite interact with these three, yet these three are also from FFVII. Sephiroth is Cloud's dark memories in his heart, made physical (IIRC), and Tifa is Cloud's good friend. -- Super  Sword-chucks 23:34, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Tifa's symbolism
"Her role in Kingdom Hearts II is the manifestation of Cloud's inner light."

Like I said before, these are not what these two quotes are saying:


 * "As a symbol of light, like Sephiroth, it's possible that she too was incorporeal. That last scene where she goes off to search for Cloud, you could say, is a metaphor for how Cloud's light still hasn't lost him, even though he's disappeared off with his darkness, and it is trying to shine on him again…"


 * I thought it would be more interesting to let the gamers think about it. For example, "If Cloud's darkness is Sephiroth, then Tifa is light"; in that sense you can take it that Tifa isn't really human. The reason Tifa doesn't talk to anyone else besides Sora and co. may be because she doesn't exist as a human. Of course, I also presented her in a way that she could also be a resident of Hollow Bastion, so I think you can freely think for yourself about her.

These two quotes are simply saying it's a possible symbolism, but you are free to interpret Tifa however you wish. Nothing about them claim Tifa, without a doubt, is some physical manifestation of an element. That's why Nomura is using language like "it's possible", "you could say", "in that sense you can take it", "may be because", "she could also be". Nomura isn't claiming anything as factual. As seen in the second quote, he's letting players interpret Tifa however they wish. I interpreted her as a real human being who simply cares about Cloud. I never interpreted her as some strange "physical manifestation of light who isn't really human". It's a cute possible metaphor/symbolism, but I strongly disagree with the wiki pushing this metaphor as factual. Anything more than simply claiming "Tifa is symbolic of light" is original research and interpretation, and I heavily disagree with the "physical manifestation" bit.

 * The quotes are saying that Tifa is Cloud's light, and that that may mean she is incorporeal. You are misapplying the "that may mean" to be at the beginning of that sentence, rather than the middle. 18:03, 25 March 2019 (UTC)
 * On a side note, there is nothing strange within the setting about a "physical manifestation who isn't really human". The games are dripping with them. 18:06, 25 March 2019 (UTC)
