Final Fantasy VII Advent Children: Cloud Strife 04

final fantasy vii advent children cosplay - cloud strife 04In the recent Anime Festival Asia 2009 where Alodia and Ashley Gosiengfiao represented Team Philippines, a famous cosplayer was among the judges and gave the sisters full marks, even though they didn’t win.

That cosplayer is known as Kaname. I recently found out that he is also the same cosplayer behind the other Cloud Strife I featured more than a year ago.

You have to admit, Kaname makes a very convincing Cloud. If anyone happens to know where his website is, I’d love to link his images back to him. Thank you!

EDIT: Thanks to Mirashibuyaa for posting Kaname's website! You will find more of Kaname's cosplays here. Enjoy!

  1. Oh yeah! He was at Anime Expo! I was so happy to see a Cloud that was Male AND looked the part. He was so nice even though he had trouble understanding a lot of the English. ^___^; My friend cried when she met him, she is such a huge Cloud fan and has been since she was like 7. @__@;

    Thanks for posting this! I wish I knew the website. I think he gave my friend a card, but it's too late at night to call up and ask. >.< Sorry!

  12. Oh, Kaname!!! I have been looking around for his cosplay and to know other cosplayers as well.
    This website is providing so many HQ cosplays. :)

  13. My guesses, as to why he can look like the character, is because he has a face that resembles Gackt, save for the nose.He's also cosplayed, or test cosplayed other FF characters like Sephiroth, or Reno, and it's convincing.
    The reason for this is because a majority of the characters faces are sculpted from Gackt's facial features. I even think Lightning from the recent FF was slightly modeled after Gackt's face.
    Though it's tweaked in the games and the advent movie, Cloud is modeled primarily off Gackt- but again, it's tweaked.
    So this Kaname cosplayer has the advantage, because he, again, resembles Gacky save for the nose.
