The Official "Who's hotter? Tifa vs Rinoa" thread.

[ViKtoricus]

Tifa


Rinoa



Rules:
1. Don’t be like “Neither!Quistis/Yuna is hotter!” Please don’t be one of those people.
2. No pornography! Not even a hint of it. You may discuss how either is sexier than the other and how Tifa has better curves than Rinoa, but absolutely DO NOT say “Tifa has a nice set of t*ts.” Instead, say “Tifa has more appealing bosom than Rinoa.”
3. DO NOT talk about their fighting abilities.
4. The TIfa that I am talking about here is the Tifa from the FF7 movie. This is NOT the Tifa from the heavily pixelated, original FF7 videogame. This is NOT the Tifa from any fan art you’ve come across over the intarwebz. And this is definitely, absolutely NOT HENTAI TIFA!!
5. Considering how FF8, even with its respectable level of realistic bodily proportions of the characters, does not measure up to real-world bodily proportions (Squall has ridiculously short torso. Rinoa, Selphie, and Quistis have very skinny limbs.), I am allowing Rinoa fans to use sources other than the original FF8, such as fan art, Dead Fantasy, even cosplay pictures, to be used as a reference point to compete against Tifa’s hot body so that it may level the playing field. (Rinoa, in the original FF8, does have good waist-to-hip ratio. Tifa, on the other hand, has good waist-to-hip ratio AND enhanced breasts.)
6. No cussing in this thread. Words like “ass, shit, damn” may be acceptable.
7. Post in detail why you think so and so is better. It can be as little as a single sentence, so long as it adds to the overall richness of this thread.
8. No neutral posts like “They’re equally hot” UNLESS you can explain, in 1,000 words, why you think such is the case.
9. NO TROLLING.
10. NO FLAMING.
11. NO PERSONAL ATTACKS AGAINST FELLOW POSTERS!
12. I request that you vote in the poll if you’re gonna post here.
13. “Hotness” is about overall. It’s not just about how pretty their faces are or how big their boobs are, it’s everything. So please keep that in mind.
14. As long as you practice moderation, you may talk about their personalities and how this affects their overall appeal.



Let us begin.

(Question. How do I make a poll?)

 

[ViKtoricus]

I discussed this with my mother and I asked for her input. She liked Tifa better, stating that Tifa has the kind of beauty that will last with age.

On behalf of my mother, I’m giving on vote to Tifa, even though my infatuation belongs to Rinoa. I’m not sure if I can vote twice. If I can, I’ll also give Rinoa one vote on behalf of me. If not, I confide that my absence in the poll would be insignificant as the victory will be to Rinoa either way.

 

[Razberry Knight]

Tifa looks like she's a tomboy in advent children but back then and Rinoa looks more feminine and cutesy.

Other than that, their practically the same character design. Rinoa just looks a little more realistically.

 

[Sheechiibii]

Hmm, Tifa has an impressive chest, but Rinoa definitely is better in the bottom department, so it kind of depends what you prefer. Being a straight female I decided to judge on the face and sorry to say but I find Tifa prettier than Rinoa, if only slightly.

 

[Six]

Tifa.

Not all 'cause she's stunningly gorgeous, but she has an amazing personality to go with it. Can't just all be looks.

 

[Orlandu]

Rinoa hands down she has the looks and personality that goes deep. Tifa would be much more fun like a friend to me.

 

[Rey]

I can think of better ones than these two.

I would probably have to go with Tifa because she simply has it going on more than Rinoa.

Tifa has great personality as well.

 

[Harlequin]

I'm going to give my opinion so I can get to 1k posts.

I think Tifa is hotter, she has nicer eyes, a nicer face and a nicer body than Rinoa however I feel she could do with more height and slightly less chest. Neither has a good booty.

Rinoa isn't hot or different enough to compare. Maybe Fran or.. Rikku even. Rinoa could be Tifa's less attractive sister. Tifa even has a better personality.

 

[Paddy McGee]

...I think the only difference between the two is about 3 cup sizes. 0.0

Still, I'd probably go with Tifa if I could date some computer imagery.

If bullies picked on me she could kick their asses.

 

[Starships]

FF VII Tifa wins




Rinoa feels too young for me, she's like.... seventeen.

 

[ShadyLegend23]

I think they are both gorgeous and it's a very hard choice but I would have to choose Tifa with her personality winning the tiebreaker for me.

 

[spoonyrogdrumps]

I would say with all the DO NOT rules it makes this topic rather boring...................................................Rinoa \m/

 

[Jdeadevil]

It's surprisingly a tough one, but I'd go with Tifa. I'm too tired to go into too much detail but to put it simply, Rinoa has a cute smile and is romantic. It just takes a little imagination to replace the lack of aesthetic detail of Tifa's CGI. But I still prefer Tifa because hotness isn't exactly the same thing. I'd expect Rinoa to be a better date, but Tifa would probably be the first to put someone through the wall if they tried to steal you.

 

[Ultimaja]

I would f#(% Tifa to death, but I would marry Rinoa.

So I don't know how to vote

Let us begin.

That's a lot of rules we got there, don't we?


Question: How does one not mention tits when deciding who's hotter? This question itself, suggests physical appearance, not based on anything else between them.


Anyhoo, I'm going with Tifa, because she's hotter.

Not to mention, she's badass! Her fighting skills surpass Rinoa without question.

look at that rack.

I liked Tifa personality wise too. Rinoa was sweet, but I felt like she tried too hard.

 

[The Witch]

is this real life?

how is this a post-count thread??????? whatever, i'll take it.

that said, i'd go with rinoa, cuz she isn't a whiney, self-absorbed spoiled brat. she might be demanding sometimes but damn at least she'll sacrifice herself for others. like i said, personality goes a longgggg way. i might not dig on girls, but if i did it'd be rinoa hands down. plus, i mean, she has the pretty squinty eyes

 

[Madeen]

Tifa easy. Rinoa was cute but just a bit too boring. Tifa wins on both looks and having a much better personality.

 

[Rey]

that said, i'd go with rinoa, cuz she isn't a whiney, self-absorbed spoiled brat.

I never really thought Tifa was a self-absorbed whiney spoiled brat. Tifa has one of the best personalities in the series. Would you care to elaborate without bringing Aerith into this?

 

[The Witch]

First off, who brought up Aerith? Why would Aerith have anything to do with Tifa's bad character?







I am in the middle of a few gfx pieces so I don't have much time to speak, so would you mind waiting for my 'Tifa: the anti-hero of FFVII' article? I've been writing it and it will be up soon. It'll be very lengthy, though so... yeah,

just as quick examples off the top of my head;

self-absorbed; preoccupied with one's thoughts, interests, etc.

EXAMPLES:

Barret "This is all screwed up!"
"They destroyed an entire village just to get to us! They killed
so many people...."

Tifa
"...are you saying it's our fault? Because AVALANCHE was here? I
nnocent people lost their lives because of us?"

(He stands up and shakes his head.)

Barret
"No, Tifa!"
"That ain't it! Hell no!!"
"It ain't us! It's the damn Shinra! It's never been nobody but
the Shinra!"

(Cloud steps back, facing away from Barret and Tifa. Barret faces away
and raises his arms.)

Barret
"They're evil and destroyin' our planet just to..."
"build their power and line their own damn pockets with gold!"
"If we don't get rid of them, they're gonna kill this planet!"

(He turns around.)

Barret
"Our fight ain't never gonna be over until we get rid of them!"

(Tifa shakes her head.)

Tifa
"............I don't know."

Barret
"What don't you know!? You don't believe me?"

Tifa "It's not that. I'm not sure about ... me. My feelings."

People just died, including Tifa's friends and, well....

Tifa: Why……? What do you want me to do?
Please, Cloud…… Talk to me……
Tell me you see me, that you can hear me…… Tell me, please……
I came this far believing in the memories we have together…
This isn’t happening……! This is too cruel……
Oh, Cloud……! I…………

This is a perfect example of Tifa’s self-absorption. It’s ALL about her. It’s cruel that this is happening to her, even though it’s Cloud who’s been put into a coma. ‘Me, me, me, me’, it’s her favorite word, I swear—well, that, or ‘I’. It’s like she’s Walter White or something.

Tifa "Cloud... It's just an illusion."
"Don't worry about it..."

(The screen goes white. we hear the sound of rushing wind.)

Cloud
"What's.. next?"

Tifa
"Stop it already!!"

Cid
"This is terrible..."

(The white fades to reveal that we are still in Nibelheim. Every building
in the town is aflame.)

Cloud
"...This is what actually happened five years ago."
"But..."
"It's probably not me that's going to come out of the Shinra
mansion."
"He's going to try and show us another stupid illusion."

(We see the black-haired young man from before rush out of the Shinra
mansion.)

Cloud
"See... didn't I tell you?"

(He slowly walks into the town, his sword drawn. Zangan is outside the
inn, while a couple people lie on the ground.)

Zangan
"Hey! It's you! You're still sane,
right?"

(He nods.)

Zangan
"Then come over here and help me!"

(He rushes over to Zangan.)

Tifa
"I don't want to... watch this. Cloud... don't watch."

(The young man turns in place slowly, staring at the burning houses. He
shakes his head sadly.)

Zangan
"I'll check this house. You check that one over there."

(Zangan rushes into the inn.)

In the above example, you can see she's lying to Cloud, allowing Sephiroth to humiliate Cloud just so HER feelings are spared.

(Young Cloud turns away.)
Cloud: "I used to think... they were all stupid."
(Tifa spins to face him.)
Tifa "What?"
(He turns back to face Tifa.)
"You were all childish, laughing at every little stupid thing."
(She turns to look at her former self and friends, then back to Young Cloud.)
Tifa"But we were children, back then."

In this scene, during the lifestream scene, Cloud is dealing with his own demons and when she hears that Cloud use to think her and her friends were stupid all she can do is defend herself.

Cloud "Five years."
Tifa "............"
Cloud "What is it?"
Tifa "...It's really been a long time."
(The screen darkens, but does not disappear.)

Tifa
"Actually, it's been seven years."
"You got your wish and joined SOLDIER, quit after the Sephiroth
incident, and now you're a mercenary..."
"You told me a lot about what happened after you left
Nibelheim..."
"But..."
"...Something's wrong. I felt there was something strange about
the things you talked about."
"All the things you didn't know that you should. And other things
you shouldn't know that you did..."
"I wanted to make sure..."
"But then I heard... you were going far away..."

(The screen finally goes to black.) Tifa: “But then I heard… you were going far away… And I didn’t want that……I didn’t know what to do. So, I thought I needed more time.” (in Junon after Cloud gives the black materia to Sephiroth)

She admits to knowing something was wrong with Cloud but she kept it to herself because SHE didn't want him to leave and because SHE needed more time to enjoy his 'first class soldier' alter ego, the part of Cloud she prefers.

Tifa "You know, Cloud, Aerith is gone."
Barret
"Everyone's out looking for Aerith."

(Cloud sits up in bed and shakes his head.)

Cloud
"......City of the Ancients. Aerith is headed there."

Barret
"By herself!? Why did she go by herself!?"
"Hey, we're goin' too."

Cloud
"Only the Ancients, only Aerith can save us from Meteor..."

Tifa
"Then we must go. What'll we do if something happens to Aerith?
If Sephiroth finds her, she's in trouble."

Cloud
"Sephiroth... already knows."

Barret
"Hey! Why are you still sittin' around?"

Tifa
"Let's go, Cloud."

(Cloud shakes his head.)

Cloud
"No."

(He holds his head)

Cloud
"I might lose it again."
"If Sephiroth comes near me
I might..."

Barret
"Yeah, godammit! It's 'cuz of you that Sephiroth got the Black
Materia in the first place. It's your damn fault!"

(Cloud lets go of his head)

Cloud
"My fault?"

Barret
"I know you got problems... hell, we all do. But, you don't even
understand yourself."
"But you gotta understand that there ain't no gettin' offa this
train we're on, till get to the end of the line."

Tifa
"Cloud, we came this far... Aren't you even going to settle up
with Sephiroth?"

(Cloud clutches his head)

Cloud
"No..."

(He shakes his head)

Cloud
"I'm afraid."
"If this keeps up, I may go crazy!"
"I'm afraid..."

Barret
"Just a damn jackass, that's what you are..."
"Yo, jes' think about it... How many people in this world do ya
think really understand themselves?"
"People get depressed in life because they don't know what's up."
"But, they go on living. They don't run away... isn't that how it
is?"

(Barret leaves.)

Tifa
"Cloud... you'll come with us, right? I believe in you."

(Tifa leaves. Cloud holds his head)

Cloud
"What... am I supposed to do?"
"Pull out of here?"
"Pull out? ...To where?"

(The camera pans down. Tifa and Barret are standing by the door to the inn.
Tifa faces Cloud's room.)

Tifa
"Cloud..."

Barret
"Wait a minute, Tifa. Give him a little time."
"He has to decide this on his own."

Not only is Barret BLAMING Cloud, but Tifa isn’t even trying to defend Cloud when Barret is blaming him for something that she KNOWS Cloud has NO control over. In this scene you see Cloud admitting that he is NOT fit to go onward, Cloud KNOWS this at this very moment. Beating Aerith and handing over the black materia proved to Cloud that he was not right in the head and he knew he couldn’t carry on or else everything would get worse. But what does Tifa do, she sits back and watches as Barret blames Cloud for mistakes he has NO control over and then SHE urges him to continue on their journey, despite Tifa knowing full well that something IS wrong with Cloud. She could have told him the truth RIGHT THEN AND THERE, but she didn’t. Why? Cloud was admitting that something was wrong, so he wouldn’t call her a liar for telling him the truth, so why didn’t Tifa tell Cloud the truth after he already snapped? What was keeping her back? Cloud was already accepting something was wrong, he was already looking to find out the truth… and yet, Tifa does nothing.


Barret is more compassionate in regards to Cloud not being himself than Tifa is, I mean, Tifa is acting as if NOTHING even happened. Tifa waited to tell the truth because SHE just didn’t want this fake reality to end. She enjoyed the fantasy of being Cloud’s childhood friend, where he’s this ex 1st class SOLDIER, because that’s someone she could be proud of. She didn’t want Cloud for his real self, she wanted this fantasy version. The fact that she STILL didn’t tell Cloud the truth even after Cloud was confessing that something was wrong with him proves that. And she didn't tell him the truth because she had more concern for HERSELF than for Cloud or Aerith's well-being.


So like I said, self-absorbed.

I would give you more examples but a) these should be enough to indicate her self-absorption, and b) that would ruin my article The other adjectives I used to describe her lumpy ass also have more than enough examples but like I said, I don't have time but hopefully these quotes show you that I actually have examples of her acting as such, if not, I doubt anything would convince people.

btw, i mainly copy and pasted this from my other articles so sorry if there are some comments that weren't anything you said.
