*He is one of five ''Final Fantasy'' characters featured not have a featured weapon, the others being [[Aerith]] and the [[Gullwings]]. He is also the only ''Final Fantasy'' character not seen participating in any battle, whereas Aerith served as healer and the Gullwings managed to defeat an [[Armored Knight]] through a team effort. If he does have a weapon, then it is likely his custom-made spear. (However the Kingdom Hearts manga briefly showed him attacking [[Heartless ]]with a flamethrower.) | *He is one of five ''Final Fantasy'' characters featured not have a featured weapon, the others being [[Aerith]] and the [[Gullwings]].

*Though each ''Final Fantasy'' game each has had its own Cid since ''Final Fantasy II'', though remakes of the original ''Final Fantasy'' mentions of a Cid, the Cid of the Kingdom Hearts series is that of ''Final Fantasy VII'', Cid Highwind. As a Cid, he bears the trademark of his association with machinery and airships, or gummi ships in this case. Like Cid Highwind, the ''Kingdom Hearts'' Cid is a pilot and is rather uncouth behavior with a good heart. However, what is not retained is smoking habit, thus the lack of the box of cigarettes strapped to his goggles and his trademark cigarette in his mouth which is replaced by a toothpick to produce a similar image, and more importantly, his signature foul mouth, with many of these foul words replaced by symbols in the English translation. In addition, his attire resembles neither his original design or his appearance in ''Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children''. | *Though each ''Final Fantasy'' game each has had its own Cid since ''Final Fantasy II'', though remakes of the original ''Final Fantasy'' mentions of a Cid, the Cid of the Kingdom Hearts series is that of ''Final Fantasy VII'', Cid Highwind.
