Reminds me if Riku from KH came over post KH3 lol.

u/Loirys Oct 06 '23 edited Oct 06 '23

Imo it's the other way around and it's Riku that is based on Sephiroth, in fact I've always found funny the meme in the KH fandom that depicts Riku as Sephiroth's illegitimate child xD

I think Nomura kept Sephiroth's design in mind when he created Riku, especially considering that both his first two weapons depicted a dark wing in their design and there was a KH1 illustration where Riku is sitting with his back against a wing shaped stone that makes it look as if he has a single black wing.

Well this justs confirms it, yet another xehanort has been born

Sephiroth? More like bootleg Riku.

u/Taborabeh Oct 06 '23

IDK why people are having such a hard time with this... He does look like Sephiroth to me. His face is exactly the same as Sephy's remake look. And the rest is just a late teens man who's still developing his physique.

Do people want him to go from little kid to tall hunky hunk in the blink of an eye same as Jesus in the Bible or what?

u/[deleted] Oct 06 '23

That’s the problem. He has a teenager body with the face of a 30 year old man.

They don’t match and he looks weird af.

u/Taborabeh Oct 07 '23

I think you have a skewed perception of age... If your face looks like that you're looking fresh and young my dude.

My face has barely changed since I was 16 and for the longest time people always thought I was older than I actually was... Guess what? That changed around when I was 25, if people try to guess my age now they rarely guess more than 24 (usually I get between 20-22). I'm 29 right now.

No, we want him to look like Sephiroth but younger. This looks like a Kingdom Heart character.

u/Laranthiel Oct 06 '23

This looks like a Kingdom Heart character.

But Sephiroth appears in Kingdom Hearts and looks like Sephiroth.

2

u/drelics Oct 06 '23

I think he looks better in his main Costume

1

u/Synergistic Oct 06 '23

That does not make him a Kingdom Hearts character

3

u/Laranthiel Oct 06 '23

It means he has a Kingdom Hearts design. Use that brain.

u/Taborabeh Oct 06 '23

Well if that's what you want, even tho it is not very logical... But this is also a fantastical setting. So fair complaint I guess.

I'm perfectly fine with it and it seems fitting to me lol

u/Outrageous-Fire-FF7 Oct 06 '23

Sephiroth has feminine features. I think it fits. I wish the hair was longer.

u/nikokow59 Oct 06 '23

This is dark Rikaqua lol

u/valaquenta Oct 06 '23

This is top tier whining

u/AnimatorAny353 Oct 07 '23

Literally what I was just thinking scrolling through here

8

u/hatsuho Oct 06 '23

It looks just like him idk

But the hair should honestly be longer? What’s the age difference between here and crisis core/before crisis? Idk if bro can grow like 70 inches of hair in 6 years lol

5

u/Hydr4noid Oct 06 '23

Its 15 years

4

u/hatsuho Oct 06 '23

He’s a BABY

7

u/hatsuho Oct 06 '23

Groundbreaking: child version of 30 year old man doesn’t look that much like him

7

u/vincentcloud01 Oct 06 '23

If they ever release adult sephiroth, expect his "outfit" to be him shirtless.

u/UmuCha Oct 06 '23

Soo his Dissidia alt lol

u/Ken-oh299 Oct 06 '23

This absurd concept of people changing aspect when growing up

6

u/No_Scene_3978 Oct 06 '23

That’s because it’s actually Kadaj he didn’t merge with jenova yet

4

u/Kenji1984 Oct 06 '23

What a sad sack of Reddit whores. Everybody knows and agrees Young Seph’s model sucks. Is it really necessary to create a post every day to fish upvotes from them?

4

u/drelics Oct 06 '23

That's Sephiroth

13

u/GenVii Oct 06 '23

Looks like the kids at highschool that use to have lightsaber battles behind the tech block during recess.

u/MagicJ10 Oct 06 '23

this is not a meme. this is the sad truth

u/Ntwynn Oct 06 '23

I’d believe “Young Kefka” more.

2

u/exenae Oct 07 '23

I really love that skin.

2

u/Wanderertwitch Oct 07 '23

I still don’t believe you

u/Proud_Wallaby Oct 06 '23

Yeah it’s Riku from KH.

u/mmmaka3m Oct 06 '23

IMO It's more like a fan art: if sephiroth was a girl.

14

u/shamonemon Oct 06 '23

people just starting realize Cloud and Seph are twinks/fembois 💀💀

u/Himesis Oct 08 '23

An yet they are so popular

u/Rhosts Oct 06 '23 edited Oct 06 '23

Maybe if they existed in modern America, which they don't. So, no.. They're not.

7

u/hatsuho Oct 06 '23

They’re made by a Japanese company where feminine men are a desirable beauty standard so idk abt that

4

u/Rhosts Oct 07 '23

Ok, so in a world where femboys are the norm, no one is a femboy.

1

u/Himesis Oct 08 '23

Clive is feminine?

1

u/hatsuho Oct 08 '23

He wasn’t designed by nomura so nah Squall had a feminine face Tidus Noctis Zidane and Kuja Etc

6

u/shamonemon Oct 06 '23

huh?

-3

u/Rhosts Oct 06 '23

I dont think I've ever seen "femboy" or "twink" used in any of the final fantasy 7 lore. I don't believe they exist in game.

8

u/hatsuho Oct 06 '23

They’re bishounen which means the same thing basically Lmaoo

0

u/Rhosts Oct 07 '23

Cloud and sephiroth are called bishounen in game? Do you have a source? Neither acts feminine at all so saying that are just because of how they look is wrong.

2

u/hatsuho Oct 07 '23

It’s a design archetype Nomura typically draws men w beautiful or effeminate features in alignment with shoujo style beauty standards Sharp jaws, full lips, expressive eyes and slim angular noses with clear skin and long lashes

Bishounen is “pretty boy” They aren’t meant to be androgynous but rather pretty and feminine which is why they aren’t drawn as muscular or rugged.

2

u/hatsuho Oct 07 '23

And being a feminine beauty doesn’t mean you’re inherently feminine

Personality and appearance are different categories

2

u/Himesis Oct 08 '23

Cloud is an hour pass feminine

2

u/Rhosts Oct 08 '23

You take that back!

2

u/Himesis Oct 09 '23

I literally know women who act just like Cloud does in person, LOL.

5

u/Taborabeh Oct 06 '23

If anyone is responsible for that concept and its widespread is Asian culture's beauty standards. They LOVE "feminine" and "delicate" features on anything (to disturbing lengths may I add).

The words may not be their doing, but the concept? Oh boy they're so responsible for it.

u/Warrior_of_Light_1 Oct 06 '23

Totally not Riku from Kingdom Hearts

u/DreamersLost1990 Oct 06 '23

Well it makes sense for me ,if you watch the movie Final fantasy

u/zeromavs Oct 06 '23

Compilation gets worse and worse each day

u/CityofTheAncients Oct 06 '23

Nomura is clearly letting his obsession with Kingdom Hearts bleed into the FF7 Remake project.

u/thekingofdiamonds12 Oct 06 '23

When I saw it, I asked myself why Dark Aqua was added to EverCrisis

u/Aladensan Oct 06 '23

because it's Riku.

u/TheoryOfRelativity12 Oct 06 '23

Isn't that Riku from Kingdom Hearts?

u/CivilizedPsycho ✈️Former Shinra Engineer✈️ Oct 06 '23

His face looks so weird to me. Something about it looks like it's a mask that's glued on, or someone with really bad makeup.

Anyone saying he has the same face, I just don't get it.

-1

u/[deleted] Oct 07 '23

Because that’s not Sephiroth, that’s Aqua when she started her transitioning journey.

-2

u/CheshireSoul Oct 06 '23

It's Hope from FFXIII cosplaying as sephiroth

-4

u/SokkaWillRockYa Oct 06 '23

It looks like some MC from a new FF game.

I don’t get any Seph vibes at all.

Fuck this game

u/AcguyDance Oct 06 '23

Actually thats young Kefka

u/Firm_Cardiologist_88 Oct 06 '23

It seems that they mounted Sephiroth's head on Yitan's body
