Final Fantasy VII Advent Children: Yuffie Kisaragi 02

Prone to motion sickness and hopelessly obsessed with the collection of mana, Yuffie Kisaragi is the daughter of the leader of Wutai who wishes to return her country to its former glory, and not a mere tourist spot. In Advent Children, she helps Cloud and Tifa in the fight against Bahamut SIN. There is also a prequel novella "Case of Yuffie" which details about how Geostigma pread to Wutai and what Yuffie did to find a cure to help her people.

Cute cosplayer and really awesome weapon detail! Wonder how she got it to look so real? Thanks to Kon for sharing this!

Final Fantasy VII Advent Children: Cloud Strife 04

In the recent Anime Festival Asia 2009 where Alodia and Ashley Gosiengfiao represented Team Philippines, a famous cosplayer was among the judges and gave the sisters full marks, even though they didn’t win.

That cosplayer is known as Kaname. I recently found out that he is also the same cosplayer behind the other Cloud Strife I featured more than a year ago.

You have to admit, Kaname makes a very convincing Cloud. If anyone happens to know where his website is, I’d love to link his images back to him. Thank you!

Final Fantasy VII Advent Children: Tifa Lockhart 02

Though she plays a more minor role in Advent Children than in Final Fantasy VII, Tifa did battle against Loz and later, against Bahamut SIN. She has shorter hair than her original character design mainly because animating long hair was proven to be quite difficult.

She looks like an older, more mature version of Rinoa to be honest. But I think a few people will get mad at me for saying that. Beautiful cosplay though! And the characters for the cosplayer’s name means “little fish”, Xiao Yu. Great cosplaying!

Final Fantasy VII Advent Children: Tifa Lockhart 03

Script writer Nojima Kazuhige describes Tifa to be "very much like any woman who's been left behind like a man", meaning someone who was hurt emotionally, but not clingy. She urges Cloud to come to terms with the unwarranted guilt he places upon himself, and takes care of Barret's adopted daughter, Marlene, as well as another child known as Denzel.

I think she may be the same Tifa as the cosplayer I featured more than 2 years ago, but I still find her pretty impressive. She still makes me think that she jumped right out of the film. Great cosplay!

Final Fantasy VII Advent Children: Tifa Lockhart 04

When Tifa accompanied Marlene to visit Aerith's church in Midgar, they get an unexpected visitor, Loz, who is in search of Jenova's remains. After his confrontation with Tifa, he receives instructions from his cell phone to capture Marlene, thinking she is one of the children infected with Geostigma, and take them to the Forgotten City. Tifa then joins Cloud to stop Kadaj, Yazoo, and Loz from reviving Sephiroth.

Mei Wai is certainly fit for the role of Tifa Lockhart. Wonderful job on Tifa's infamous battle pose! Thanks for sharing this with us!

Final Fantasy VII Advent Children: Cloud Strife 05

At the end of Final Fantasy VII, Cloud did his best to try and live positively, but the sin he carried in his heart caused him to almost lose himself. Even though it was no one's fault to begin with, Cloud had to overcome this feeling of guilt on his own. In choosing to fight against Sephiroth once again, Cloud finally receives healing and forgiveness.

Beautiful cosplay! And it seems so much like Cloud to make a grab for the camera if someone were to take a picture of him. Thanks to Dominique for sending this in!
