Ok. What do you guys think?

My mum reckons that RED XIII looks like the devil...

I don't think it does. Just an exaggerated tiger/lion [drawing].

Other comments welcome Smile

He is just a talking lion/tiger/dog that was an ancient sentient race which got slowly extinct due to humans. 'nuff said?

ever

at all.

he looks like some roughed up gangster dog XD. far from the devil.

must be the red. not to mean anything offensive, but i think your mum is thinking too deep into it.

when i see Red XIII i sought of picture him as an traditional Indian wolf with a peaceful spirit, it's never occured to me either that he could look like the devil. ... Confused

I just see it more like a dog, no more and no less Rolling Eyes

although really mean looking, funny that REDXIII is really nice and a bit childish in the game Razz

btw he only spoke 1 line in FF7AC man that is not right

yeah most of the extra characters only had one line...

hehe i love how Red XIII walks when he's wearing clothes on the boat Very Happy

hahaha 'it's hard to stand on both feet, isn't it?' Very Happy

well no one knows what the devil looks like, so really you can't say anything about red representing the devil.

besides, the main colour that is associated with evil is black.

i thought black is symbol of darkness and white is purity, holiness and other things.....

red being a bad colour.... i only can think of superstitious (sorry for spellig) people who never writes or signs documents in red (symbol for bad luck) based on western believe at least.

but red is a fav colour for chinese culture i think

He has red furr, dont see how that means anything
Red is just a colour
He looks mean, thats about it Wink

I agree in that we dont know what devil looks like (can look like anything if he wanted, and usually something pleasent - being decietful an all)
Ive never heard of a red dog/cat indian thingy being associated with him though
Maybe she just doesnt like the looks of him? Smile

>concinnity
nope.

the third one is a shot from the FF7 game, the 4th is a shot from FF:AC

if you played the game, they had movie clips in there which owned the playing scenes

those movies, looked pretty close to the AC version

Also, in terms of nature, red is the colour of danger... on land, anyway. I don't know why, it just is.

The fmv's in FFVII look inferior to AC... But they're still great. They served their purpose. Very Happy

transistor · Posted: Fri Dec 09, 2005 3:27 am Post subject:

coz red is associated with colour of fire?

for danger signs..... is it because they are easier to see? and stands out more among the bushes?

Concinnity · Posted: Fri Dec 09, 2005 8:54 am Post subject:

i think they just tried to make it similar to a lion or tiger......
