Ally McBeal - September 16, 2005 02:29 PM (GMT)
we know overall is sora from kh..anf from FFVII is cloud..
but who's his favorite ff girl??
FF_Goddess - September 17, 2005 09:23 PM (GMT)
All I know is that it isn't Tifa. Nomura said that he "isn't interested in any superdeformed females". :lmao: So, my best guess would be Aerith. :aeris:
Kusari Yarou - September 19, 2005 05:08 AM (GMT)
I have...erm...reason to think that it's Aerith
Materia Thief - September 19, 2005 05:29 AM (GMT)
I'm pretty sure is favorite Squenix girl is Aya Brea, but for FF? I have no idea. :lol:
Probably one of his heroines though like Aeris or Yuna or something. ^_^

MT: Really? Aya is his favorite SE character? Good choice :cleris: I sure hope Aeris' his favorite in FF though. But who knows, it might even be quina or freya hehe :sad:

Yep! I'm almost entirely sure. ^_^
But aren't Quina and Freya, um...Amano's creations? ^_^
Seii Monogatari - September 20, 2005 06:19 AM (GMT)
Aya would also make sense, considering she's basically a female version of one of his favorite male designs. :lol:

Yeah so he automatically crossed out Tifa. :lol:
But he can't say it's Aeris or Clotis fan's will attack! :whistle:
Anti-R - September 21, 2005 02:46 AM (GMT)
Aya Brea is Nomura's favorite? Awesome!
Makes me kinda feel sad he was over ruled to have Aerith in KH... I'd bet KH Aya would have been so cool.

Ack. You're right. I forgot 9 had a different character designer. Sorry :D
Meggie - December 26, 2005 08:53 PM (GMT)
Call me crazy but I believe that his favourite FF girl is Rinoa... <_<
-Testament- - December 27, 2005 10:55 PM (GMT)
I'd say Aeris and Rinoa, remember he doesn't like really deformed women *cough*Tifa*cough* :lmao:
Kaldea - December 28, 2005 12:55 AM (GMT)
Amano didn't design the characters in FFIX. He just drew extra pictures of them like he did for the other FF games.
Amathala - December 28, 2005 01:56 PM (GMT)
What about Yuna tho? She was so fun and a very important heroine, and got her own sequel. We dont see Rinoa with a sequel. Besides, look at her, she doesn't look like any of the other main FF heroines. All the other girls have dark hair and dark eyes, while Yuna has pretty brown hair and two different colored eyes. I think it's Yuna. I like Yuna too ^_^
012607 - December 28, 2005 04:23 PM (GMT)
Aerith!
I also quite like Yuffie and Rikku. :aeris:
AmayaSaria - December 29, 2005 02:27 AM (GMT)
Hmmm I'd honestly have to say its Aerith.
To me, he just seems like he's very fond of her, over all the other FF girls he talks about.
^__^
Yay Aerith! :aeris:
(And who says Quina or Freya can't be his favorite? Just because he didn't create them doesn't mean he can't love 'em, right?)
Schala - December 29, 2005 03:02 AM (GMT)
I have no idea, but I like to think that it's Aeris. Is a creator allowed to have favorites? :P

Quina is a girl? :blink:
Cetra_Aerith - December 29, 2005 01:39 PM (GMT)
Wasn't Aerith Sakaguchi's character :unsure:
Lynn - December 29, 2005 01:42 PM (GMT)
The character designs in FFVII are Nomura's. Sakaguchi and Nomura were involved in the plot of the game.
I've read everywhere people saying that Nomura's favourite FF female is Rinoa, but I can't, for the life of me, find its original source. :lol: Not that I'm trying to prove/disprove it, but I was curious where it all started from.

i read an article somewhere and it says his fav character is Aeris.
I think it said sumthing like he only created Tifa because if the player does not get Yuffie(since she's optional), then there won't be any female chracters left in the game. :aeris:
Ultima_Princess - January 20, 2006 11:04 PM (GMT)
I've been reading everywhere that his favorite female is Rinoa too. I think it's kinda funny that his favorite is also one of the most hated :lol: And Aerith is the favorite of either Kitase or Uematsu, I can't remember which. I'm pretty sure it was Kitase though.
Vanessa Strife-Gainsborough - January 21, 2006 04:21 AM (GMT)
i was gonna say Tifa at first, but I'm glad I thought twice :phew:.
I say its Aerith!! :aeris: :fangirl:
Hades' Daughter - January 21, 2006 03:10 PM (GMT)
Hrmms...can't remember if Nomura was talking about FFVII only or his favorite character in general, but I thought he mentioned Aerith. I think he mentioned that when he was talking about how "replacing Aerith with Tifa" had been just a joke.
*runs off to double check*
Lynn - January 21, 2006 03:21 PM (GMT)
He did mention the "replacement" thing in the EGM interview. I'm not sure if he said anything about it in Dismantled (or maybe that's where the misunderstanding was made? Ah, I've got all my info mixed up... :lol:'').
As far as I know, however, Nomura's never officially stated who his favourite FFVII female is. The closest he came was saying "he doesn't like super-deformed females" when EGM asked him about it. :lmao:
I still stand by Rinoa, but I've yet to find any proof from an article or a book or somewhere... *continues hunting*
Hades' Daughter - January 21, 2006 03:29 PM (GMT)
I have to look through all the threads again...I'm positive I read it somewhere. Was it something FF_G posted up? If not "favorite character", it must have been something about how he likes Aerith then...
Must find... >.<
*panics*
Lynn - January 21, 2006 03:43 PM (GMT)
Hmm.
Could it have come from Velvy? According to her friend, Nomura said his favourite FFVII female character was Aerith. They apparently asked him at a convention/meet-and-greet or somethng. I recall moaning in Devotion what a shame it was, that they didn't tape record it at the time. :lol:

I can't remember exactly where I read it, Lynn. I'm so positive I read it somewhere though. At the time, I was kind of thinking to myself "does that mean Nomura likes Aerith more than Cloud?" :o
I also recall some Clotis arguing about it too...something about how just because Nomura's favorite character [from the game?] was Aerith didn't mean Cloud loved her.
Unfortunately, I haven't had time to sit down and go through the threads. I shall have to do that...just for curiosity's sake.

:lmao: Wow, that IS something! And the Cloti reaction too. :o
I'll try looking through the threads here too. And maybe, if I can ever work up the courage, to brave the 800+ pages of Devotion. :P
rikkusthebest - December 29, 2007 05:15 PM (GMT)
Rikku!!!!
the best character there is!!!!
*Please refrain from spamming. If you have proof that Rikku was confirmed as Nomura's favorite FF girl, please post it. Personal opinions don't count here. ~FF_G~*
Kaleta - January 6, 2008 07:42 PM (GMT)
Well im not really sure, but he did state that in FFVII that his favs was Cloud, Aerith and Red, so for the girl fav thing, i think Aerith would be my best guess <3 :aeris:
But im not saying he likes her overall, just that Aerith is his fav girl in FFVII.
Angelwing Aeris - January 7, 2008 05:35 AM (GMT)
I can tell everyone where I think Rinoa being Nomura's fav ff girl came from
Loveless, in these articles:
http://tifa.nu/tifa/original/original.php?z=designhttp://tifa.nu/tifa/original/original.php?z=love02although I don't know where Loveless got the info cause they don't give any sources.
Mu_Kitten - January 7, 2008 11:07 AM (GMT)
..Tifa was deformed..?
Never noticed..
I think its Rinoa..
Nomura had said in an article that Aerith wasnt someone he would be attracted to..But he still luffers her <3 But I doubt she's his favorite.
Since he kinda exed her by saying so...
All his drawings where of Black hair busty ladies..the staff kinda picked on him for it... :o Meanies
I know Kitase loves Aerith like omg woah though. :cleris:
Kaleta - January 7, 2008 04:13 PM (GMT)
*refuses to look at loveless* xD
@Mu_Kitten He said that? OHH!! i wanna know where thats from D;
Mu_Kitten - January 7, 2008 07:11 PM (GMT)
So do I, I've heard it from multiple sources, and some of them arent CloTi or pairing/shipping sites at all, but it could just be a rumor..you know how those things get popular...
FF_Goddess - January 7, 2008 07:31 PM (GMT)
Don't trust anything without a source...
I have never seen any quote from Nomura where he confirmed a favorite female character. And, yeah, don't trust anything Loveless says. <_<

Ditto, Loveless is a biased site which is obviously written by a cloti.
Anyway, Mu_Kitten, do you now have a source for the Kitase thing?
BulletProofMarshMellow - January 7, 2008 09:11 PM (GMT)
I hope Rinoa isn't his favorite. O_O;
Some-how, I can see Aeris or Tifa being his favorite, FFVII wise.
As a whole, I'm not sure. x'D I'm surprised no interviewers have asked. : O

I think that if an interviewer ask him that, Nomura'll give another vague answer, leading to much speculation and 'it's Girl A! It's Girl B!'.
Well, since he doesn't like 'super deformed' women, I think Tifa isn't it.
And don't trust Loveless, ever. From a site that state female characters whose name ends with 'a' is the main heroine, never mind the actual name itself and the meaning, it's how it's spelt count!
