I thought I would make a post about the romantic cliches/tropes that surround Cloud and Tifa. I’m not saying this in any way proves that they are canon, they are just things that I have noticed that are common romantic themes in other media. :) Childhood Friends
Example: Dart and Shana (Legend of Dragoon), Vaan x Penelo (FFXII), Cecil x Rosa (FFIV), Kyrie x Nero (DMC4), Sora and Kairi (Kingdom Hearts) 2. Stars/Shooting Stars
Example: Squall and Rinoa share a moment under the stars and also see a shooting star. Similar to how Cloud and Tifa make a promise under the stars and then a shooting star appears afterwards. 3. Promises
Example: Sora and Kairi, Squall and Rinoa Cloud and Tifa make a promise under the stars and Cloud is determined to live up to that promise. 4. Brooding Boy, Gentle Girl
Example: Squall and Rinoa, Kyo and Tohru (Fruits Basket), Female Protag and Shinjiro (Persona 3) Tifa often supports Cloud when he’s at his worst and as the ability to understand him better than anyone else (official statement). She also pulls Cloud out of his darkness moment when she explores is subconscious mind. She gives him a wake up call in AC. 5. Everyone can see it
Example: Cid comments that Tifa wears the pants in the relationship, the nurse comments on how much Tifa loves Cloud, all party members are aware of Tifa’s love for Cloud, Johnny’s jealousy towards Cloud 6. Leaving You To Find Myself
Example: Cloud leaves Tifa and his family because his past haunts him and he is afraid of losing the happiness he has with them. 7. Smitten Teenage Girl
Example: Tifa develops a Childhood crush on Cloud (and he has one on her as well) and wants him to save her and be famous. She refers to him as her blonde knight. |
