Can someone please tell me how old he is? I read somewhere that there was a huge age gap between him and Aerith, and I read somewhere else that they grew up together. :huh: He still looks young, but I'm still confused.

To my knowledge, Tseng's official age has never been stated.

Aeris claims in Final Fantasy 7 that they grew up together, but in a flashback scene, he comes for her as a member of the Turks when she was stil young.

I personally like to split the difference. I'd say that he's no mopre than ten years older than her and just became a Turk at a young age.

I agree with Alan. He could have been like a brother figure before he became a Turk and wanted to capture her.

yeh i think there is a huge age gap even though he looked the same no matter at time period lol cuz when she was liek 12 looking he looked all grown to 25 lol but o well not really important now is it hehe

Personally I think he's 30... just cuz that still gives him time to be a turk when Aeris was still young, but enough time to 'grow up' with her.

Does Before Crisis prove that Tseng was young when he joined the Turks? I dunno, maybe he was about 17 or 18 when in the flashback.

My guess is 26 to 27. But then I guess we'll never know because it was never really stated. He seemed to be in his early 20's when he was in Before Crisis.

...his is too old for Aerith...right?

Well...I wouldn't say that he would be 'too old' for anyone. Age doesn't matter THAT much...To me atleast. :blush: So what if he is around 30? He and Aeris may still "grown up together". Even if Aeris was 10 and Tseng 50 they could still grow up together, if you know what I mean. ;)

Yeah, I getcha.
I agree with Namine_RQ, in BC they said that he was quite young, probably early twenties.

doesn't he like Aeris?

Yes. Yes he does.
