Who does Vaan remind you of? - Page 2

Rikkuffx · 10-24-2006, 09:56 AM

I think he reminds me more of Zidane.But he does have the Tidus look.Usually future final fantasies do look like older ones characters.(I hope that made sense) Like I remember when FFX was coming out,my boyfriend at the time was like "squall and rinoa had a son!!!" and then i looked and read the article in fact they do try to make the characters look similar to older characters.Tidus was supposed to be a mix of squall and cloud(if I remember the article correctly)

I'd say a LITTLE of Cloud, Some Tidus, and more of Zidane with sugar, spice and evrything nice = Vaan.

Well seeing as the character designs for FF XII were not done by Nomura or Amano like past FF titles but by Akihiko Yoshida who did the designs for Tactics Ogre, Vagrant Story, Final Fantasy Tactics, etc, Vaan to me greatly resembles a lot of his old characters from these games.

His face and haircut to me almost look identical to Alphonse, the main character from Tactics Ogre: Knights of Lodis. Though Vaan's hair is more off white/blonde and Alphonse's is black. i included a small status portrait of Alphonse incase nobody knows who he is.

The first one is the real Alphonse, and the second after i make his hair more white. Looks a lot like Vaan doesn't it?

Your all gonna think im crazy. But I think he kind of looks like Sephiroth, because they both have like the same long bangs on each side. It just reminded me of Sephiroth don't know why.

Georg Prime · 10-26-2006, 09:35 AM

Uh..maybe in the bangs, but not really much else to me. Vaan looks like a little kid version of Meg Ryan and Sepiroth is an older crazy mofo. I still think Alphonse looks just like Vaan.

Kratos · 11-07-2006, 08:01 PM

Vaan reminds me of Tidus and Zidane as well. He acts.....Different though.

Shadow_Axel_03 · 11-07-2006, 08:26 PM

Vaan reminds me of a Tidus mixed with a Roxas...I have no idea why but I just got that weird feeling...

Inside the mag, they had another preview about FFXII. Then they said that Vaan does look simialr to Tidus and Zidane. I thought I was the only one that thought that, but I want to know who does Vaan remind you of?

There is only so many ways you can actually designed how the character looks like, that would be appealing to what the general public would want in a main character, they probably made him this way because of how people really enjoyed FFX.

Vaan is his own character. The artwork is similar to past FF games, and thus his appearance reminds one of Tidus. However, try to put all that aside and take Vaan for who he is. So far he is a very different character than the others. He might have characteristics of Tidus and Zidane, but there are only so many fantasy character characteristics out there, and they're bound to be shared.

Vaan dosen't really remind me of zidane... But he acts like tidus

most of the time) ...
Example: (one of my fav. cut scene

)
Vaan:Uh..Fran?
Fran: Yes?
Vaan: I was Wondering.. what Jote said you know.. about how you said the
same thing 50 yrs. ago?
Fran: Your point?...
(A short quiet pause^^)
Vaan:Uhm.. HoW old are you again???
(Long Very quiet pause^-^ )
Fran

ignores annoying qUestion.... ) *exits*
Balthier: Uhhh.. nice vaan... *exits*
Ashe: *ehem*... *exits*
Larsa: strikely RUDE... (not really sure it was strikely couldnt hear
what he said ) *exits*
Penelo: Try to GROW UP! please....: *exits*
Vaan: Uh... *left alone*

Nyahaha...

and ashe?? she's really mature... like she'll tell you to not interupt her and stuff.. that's only at the beggining of the game^^ she'll cool off as you go on... she looks like a mix of yuna..aerith..and a little lucrecia...

Kaizoku · 11-10-2006, 08:34 AM

Vaan looks like Tidus and Zidane. He looks like Zidane, mostly in character, because Vaan is a thief like Zidane.

DaGladiator · 11-11-2006, 06:35 AM

I have to say Tidus But zidane too.... its a hard choice tidus+zidane=vaan?

Tiffany · 11-11-2006, 03:10 PM

Vaan has to be the first "lead" character that I've actually detested. Dude annoys me, big time.

I'd say in his mannarisms he's alot like Tidus...right down to the folding the arms behind his head. Bleh.

Georg Prime · 11-11-2006, 03:16 PM

Really? I don't know but i like Vaan..i mean he acts slightly immature at times, but he is a bit of a youngster, Tidus to me annoyed me 10 fold, he acted like such a baby because his dad was mean to him. Then you look at Vaan's situation (i.e. HE HAS NO FAMILY)..and you start to feel for him a little bit, i mean after what he's been through, he certainly acts a lot tougher than Tidus.

I definitely see the mannerisms though haha..i had to roll my eyes the first time i saw him doing the arms behind the head thing
