Tifa Lockhart (Final Fantasy VII)

Overview

Square Enix’s interview presents Tifa as an Avalanche member who questions the methods used against Shinra. Her loyalty does not remove her doubts about the consequences of their actions. Leaving Midgar carries that unresolved moral pressure into a journey that also asks her to reconsider her own past alongside Cloud.

Britt Baron, her performer, stresses the connection between physical strength and empathy. She singles out Tifa saving a Shinra employee on a train as a scene that expresses the character’s nature. Her account of Rebirth also emphasizes quiet conversations with Cloud, placing intimate uncertainty beside the confidence of a capable fighter.
