*The page it originally redirected too was a redlink at the time. I didn't really "move" it, I just replaced the redirect with a page. I didn't use the last name because it didn't seem important, and because most of the characters are just known by their first names (like [[Vivi]], [[Setzer]] and even [[Leon]] - he'd sound pretty dumb as "Leon Leonheart").

*His name isn't Leon Leonheart anyway. It's Squall Leonheart. He is called Squall once of the 1st kingdom hearts. Besides thats off topic. Is Strife really that important?

"Although Cloud is a much weaker boss than Sephiroth in Kingdom Hearts, the fact he was able to go head-to-head with him in Kingdom Hearts II implies that he wasn't fighting as hard as he could against Sora."

This sounds really unprofessional and like it was writen by a cloud crazed fan boy. Yeah Cloud is a cool guy but I think stuff like this messes up the artical.

Also "the fact he was able to go head-to-head with him in Kingdom Hearts II". The fact? its a scene made for enertainment.

'''AGAIN,''' who did this post without signing ? There's more to the scene between Cloud and Sephiroth than just mere entertainment. The battle between Cloud and Sephiroth was instrumental in KH Final Mix and KHII because Cloud wanted to get rid of the darkness inside him.

The term 'fusion sword' is used as a general term. First Tsurugi/Ken should be used to refer to the weapon itself. Regardless, First Tsurugi/Ken is used universally instead of 'fusion sword'.[[User:Kaihedgie|Kaihedgie]] 20:00, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

I'm going to agree with Kaihedgie, while it may have been a mistranslation, it has become the undisputed name for it since it has no official name, so the First Tsurugi has stayed as it's name, It's similar to Nazo, an image of a Blue Super Sonic in an early Sonic X preview, the name has stayed dispite him never appearing, as has Asura, a glitch in Sonic 2 that turned Sonic green

And the Kingdom Hearts has had situations where a nick-name become universally known before confirmation of actual names, such as Roxas being "BHK", and if Roxas had never gotten an actual name? I suspect BHK would have stayed, yes?

"Takeyuki Takeya (the monster and mechanical art designer for the film) designed Cloud's First Tsurugi sword set used in the film. He says that he doesn't know what the individual names of the swords are, nor what their specific attributes are. "First Tsurugi" is, apparently, the name for the entire set and the completed sword (as most people thought, I believe), and the swords were just called "the fusion swords" during development because they weren't given proper names."

:That's not in the actual Ultimania itself. There was no Ultimania out at the time that Faq was written that included AC, only the Reunion files. Outside of adding the name First Tsurugi, Ryu Kaze was simply repeating the words from that book, which do not use First Tsurugi. He concluded the fan name was official based on no evidence whatsoever.[[User:Ryushikaze|Ryushikaze]] 20:57, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

*1) Wait until Dissidia comes out and see if it gets an official name then, as suggested by the FF wiki (who, I notice, was having a very similar discussion involving some of the folks here. Hmmm...)

Cloud come from hollow bastion (or radiant garden), he fled the city like the other when Maleficent take the city with her heartless and go to the olympus coliseum.--[[User:Hotdragon 295|Hotdragon 295]] 14:48, June 16, 2010 (UTC)
I think that Cloud came from his own world that's unknown. I know the fight between him and Sephiroth in Kingdom Hearts II is just for entertainment, but after he and Sephiroth disappeared, Sora, Donald and Goofy (I don't remember who said it) said that they went back to their own world. I think that might've stated that he came from his own world, but was still associated with the other Final Fantasy characters. '''''OR''''' he really did orinate from Hollow Bastion and fled like [[User:Hotdragon 295|Hotdragon 295]] said.  [[User:Yukima|Yukima]] 03:45, June 20, 2010 (UTC)
:He's shown with the other RG characters in the epilogue, indicating that he was part of them.
:I always thought (even before Auron) that Cloud had died when the darkness overtook Radiant Garden, and that's why Hades was able to control him and his memories. Then, somehow, he escapes from OC.[[User:KrytenKoro|<small>Glorious</small>]] [[User_talk:KrytenKoro|<small>CHAOS!</small>]] 04:04, June 20, 2010 (UTC)
I dom't think so, and I also don't think that Cloud is from RG after all he goes back to his real world in KH2 with Sepiroth right?--[[User:Xabryn|Xabryn]] 04:07, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

== Cloud's wing ==
Where should it be noted that he seemed to have a bat wing on his right shoulder? I mean, it wasn't even in KHII, so I think the unexplained part needs to be mentioned. [[User:Weedle McHairybug|Weedle McHairybug]] 15:57, April 17, 2010 (UTC)
{{Maggosh|text="Protruding from his back is one large demonic wing..."
Please, read the article first.}}
::D'OH! My apologies... [[User:Weedle McHairybug|Weedle McHairybug]] 16:13, April 17, 2010 (UTC)
Remember that Cloud design in KH1 is a design similar to Vincent Valentine of FF7, because both Cloud and Vincent was supose to be in the game but they change for Cloud alone and the "bat wing" like you says is a wing of chaos. You know (if you play to FF7 Dirge of Cerberus) the monster Named Chaos that Vincent can transform himself sometimes in the game.--[[User:Hotdragon 295|Hotdragon 295]] 14:52, June 16, 2010 (UTC)
I don't remember where, probably here or in the Final Fantasy wiki, but it said that Cloud's demonic wing was supposed to be in contribution to Sephiroth's more angelic wing. Not sure how but it says that in one of the two wikis [[User:Yukima|Yukima]] 03:59, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

::Goofy said "Do ya think [Cloud and Sephiroth] went back to their own world?" (at least, that's what the jist of the line was), which would imply that Radiant Garden was NOT Cloud's homeworld. [[User:Weedle McHairybug|Weedle McHairybug]] 04:10, June 20, 2010 (UTC)
"Goofy: Where'd they go? Do ya think they made it back to their own world?
Sora: They went somewhere else... Cloud went to fight a great battle---to defeat the darkness inside him."
So, Sora is telling Goofy "No".
:::The KH1 epilogue also shows that Aerith and the others are familiar with Cloud, and may have been looking for him. So, that also indicates he is from RG.[[User:KrytenKoro|<small>Glorious</small>]] [[User_talk:KrytenKoro|<small>CHAOS!</small>]] 07:51, June 20, 2010 (UTC)
== Guilt ==
{{ST|text=so, cloud seems to carry around much of the same guilt he did in advent children, so waddya think he feels guilty about, cuz it obviously isn't the same thing as in ac}}
== Hmmm.... ==
Okay.  So what if it just so happened that the person he was looking for was not sephiroth, but tifa?  Or perhaps Zack?  Just a thought... ([[User:Soraxas154|Soraxas154]] 23:49, September 16, 2010 (UTC))
in KH1 it's confirmed in the credits the person he was looking for is Aerith as they met in Hollow Bastion. In KHII he clearly said the name Sephiroth. Also, Zack is supposed to be dead by KH1, except Nomura wants to bend FFVII's story and made him return in the future series [[User:17master|17master]] 13:45, September 28, 2010 (UTC)
The person he is looking for IS Sephiroth NOT Aerith. 100% proved by reliable resources and by this article itself...CloudStrifeACC 17:51, December 30, 2010 (UTC)
in KHI he said "I'm looking for my light" or something. And it's (obviously) impossible that Sephiroth is his light. And on KHII, well, I answered it already. {{User:17master/Sign}} 17:55, December 30, 2010 (UTC)
Exact dialogue from KH2:
Sephiroth: I see you've been looking for me.
Cloud: Shut up.
{{User:Chitalian8/Sig}} 18:03, December 30, 2010 (UTC)
Also, he says "looking for [his] light" in KH, which is a thing. Then in KH2, he is looking for some''one'', who is explicitly stated to be Sephiroth. {{User:Chitalian8/Sig}} 18:21, December 30, 2010 (UTC)

== Not interested ==
Just curious, when did Cloud say this quote? It's been a while since I played KH1, is it from that game? {{User:Chitalian8/Sig}} 01:58, December 10, 2010 (UTC)
"Not Interested."-Cloud to Sora in Kingdom Hearts Chain/Re:chain Memories when Sora invites him to join the party.

==Nojima Interview==
I give up on trying to find the this interview. Using the link that was posted back on KH2.uk.co on online forums, all I got from the Wayback Machine was Nomura-sensei's [https://web.archive.org/web/20090217205908/http://www.kh2.co.uk/?page=NI/KH2U interview].

==Grammar==
This sentence makes no sense: “After their battle, Cloud is either defeated, or comes out victorious, but refrains from defeating Sora.” If Cloud “came out victorious” that means that he already “defeated” his opponent. What he *did* was refrain from ''killing'' Sora. Is this bizarre wording the result of some content policy preventing the use of the word “kill”?
