Enix 995 Posted December 17, 2015 Once you think about it, it's quite true. Both: Joined a Shady Organization Black Haired Friend who died for them. Meet smart ass guy with Red Hair and Green Eyes Manipulated by a silver haired man Duel Wielding Memory problems. Comas. Learned they weren't who they thought they were, and was living a lie. Had a you're not even real period. I'm guessing Nomura really wanted a KH version of Cloud. 9 Veemon, Bewilde, irinasi and 6 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Veemon 1,540 Posted December 17, 2015 Oh yeah, Cloud had the Fusion Sword. Two swords in one, right? Yep, you are probably right. How could I not see this? You really made my day, whatever-your-real-name-is! Rock on! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hero of Light XIV 2,381 Posted December 17, 2015 Well, I'd be lying if I didn't think it was a little too much of a coincidence that Cloud's Compilation hairstyle looked oddly familiar... But to be fair, that story happens a lot in video games...and prequel stories in general. I mean, it's not note for note the same, but I got heavy Days/BbS vibes from Snake Eater. Why must it always come down to killing the awesome friend/mentor character....why? T3T" Oh yeah, Cloud had the Fusion Sword. Two swords in one, right?Yep, you are probably right. How could I not see this? You really made my day, whatever-your-real-name-is!Rock on! Actually it's more of SIX swords in one...technically seven if you count the combined sword as it's own weapon. So let's just say that Roxas takes one cool concept even further and Cloud is really REALLY trying to distract himself from all of his issues.

KingdomHearts3 2,591 Posted December 17, 2015 Nowhere close. Roxas is a nobody and Cloud is a human. I hope this topic is a joke because if so, this is in the wrong forum. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dave 5,715 Posted December 18, 2015 Of course, their personalities are polar opposites, their personal quests are different, and their reactions to their personal existential crises are handled much differently. 1 Handsome_the_Wise reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dracozombie 4,554 Posted December 18, 2015 I guess I can see those similarities on the surface, but deep down they're not all that similar at all; Cloud was far from the first thing I thought of when Roxas appeared (well, except maybe the hair... but I associate Cloud more with his spiky unicorn 'do, anyway.)

Clouded Sun 1,232 Posted December 18, 2015 (edited) Nowhere close. Roxas is a nobody and Cloud is a human.I hope this topic is a joke because if so, this is in the wrong forum. I mean, looking back at it if you played FFVII, the similarities are there. Edited December 18, 2015 by Sun Wukong Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingdomHearts3 2,591 Posted December 18, 2015 I mean, looking back at it if you played FFVII, the similarities are there.True, but you have two completely different entities. One has a heart and one doesn't. Sure they have similar scenarios, but that doesn't mean they are "clones". Besides, it hasn't been confirmed anyway.

MythrilMagician 6,963 Posted December 23, 2015 This is a joke right?! lol I've never saw them as similar besides their hair styles. It kind of is, but if you play Final Fantasy VII and Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, there are a number of similarities in regards to character development, especially the ones Enix mentions. 1 Prince_Beau reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I see what you mean about their character developments. I was thinking more in their personalities and how they are really different. I wouldn't really expect to see Cloud and Roxas to get along for some reason. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
