Maybe it is just me, but I feel that Gambol Shroud has drawn inspiration from Cloud's Fusion Sword in FF7 AC. Anyone else feel this way? It can split like the fusion sword, and has some similar effects in transformation, such as Cloud being able to use his weapons as a dual wield, like Blake uses it in Episode 8. Also, at the end of FF7AC:C, Cloud begins doing his infamous omnislash version 6 (5 was original AC), and he appears to teleport, as if like Blake's semblence that we have seen with her shadows. The description of the final strike in Omnislash V6 (according to the FFWika) is "The final strike hits and Cloud lands with his SILHOUETTES holding the auxilary swords..." Also, I feel like there will be a connection to Adam and Blake in volume 2, such as Zack and Cloud, but not remotely similar. I feel that Adam would appear in a dream before something crazy happens, such as Zack appearing behind Cloud before Omnislash. Also, Cloud is very quiet most of the time, but he is a badass. From what we know in Volume 1, Blake is a quiet, yet caring person (again, like Cloud), and can be a fucking badass when she needs to step up. Also, Tifa is (basically) Cloud's partner, a brawler who fights with her fists and kicks, like Yang. Leading to Tifa being like Yang, but that's for another post. Blake wears (although not entirely) all black like Cloud in FF7AC. This probably isn't as meaningful, but Cloud wears a ribbon with all his friends, and Blake has the ribbon of an extention of GS. Even though Cloud drives Fenrir in FF7AC, Yang drives a motorcycle somewhat similar to it, such as the wheel base and overall (for lack of a better word) casing of the motorcycle (exterior, I don't know). Not all the parts of fenrir are similar to bumblebee, but what do you guys think? Am I pretty spot on with my analysis?
