having checked out the pics of Seven from T-0, I'm 100% convinced that the character is Light with a hair dye:

Pic 2

so now the question is:
did SE do this on purpose? is there SUPPOSE to be some connection between 7 and Light
OR did SE run out of ideas and just blandly recycle ?
I'm REALLY hoping its the first one

p.s. check out this site for more pics (I think the site is run by the same good people as Gaming Union, not too sure)

Well, they are from the same universe or whatever. Maybe like one of those parallel worlds having people of different origins but same person.

Even if they were blandly recycling, I don't mind. As long as they put some changes to it, and not directly copy the look 100%. But I'm not bothered by things like this. Never could understand why people go from game to game going "this looks like this", "That looks like that". Honestly the more characters look more human looking, the less room they have to make them look unique.

But hey, that's just my opinion.

I guess they look pretty similar but who knows if it's the same person. The face is more or less exact but hair style seems similar but not exactly the same. We'll see.

Purely coincidence I think. Her hair is shorter then Lightnings and her face has different features. It could just be a reverence to Lightning since this is a game in the Final Fantasy XIII family.

Guys, have you never seen that .gif of Lightning turning into Cloud and back? All Final Fantasy characters have resemblances. See:

Hehe, that's a great optical illusion if anything. If you get a similar pose and same humanistic looking style, that's possible with any 2 characters. Shoot, they even used to do that in advertising banners to capture attention Pretty neat though.

But it goes back to what I said earlier.. the more human you make them, the more they are going to look alike. It's what I missed about the old sprites, they were easy to make different. And hair style/colors being crazy. It created huge uniqueness between characters.

They look nothing alike to me.

I've seen that Cloud to Lightning thing before on Uncyclopedia or Encyclopedia Dramatica, can't remember, pretty hilarious. Hmm, isn't it interesting that in real life lightning comes from clouds?

This shouldn't come too much of a surprise, considering Type-0 shares same the head concept artist who has a fetish for belts, zippers, and odd hairstyles as most Final Fantasy games since FF VII.

Isn't Lightning really just a female Cloud? That may have been the point of the same face.
