Initial Concerns and Redesign
Tifa Lockhart's breast size has been a topic of discussion among Final Fantasy VII fans for years. The original game, released in 1997, featured a character design that, while limited by the technology of the time, still presented Tifa with a noticeable bust. The remake, released in 2020, sparked debate about whether her chest size had been reduced.
Official Confirmation and Canonization
Some fans expressed concern that Tifa's breasts appeared smaller in the Final Fantasy VII Remake compared to the original game [4]. This led to discussions about potential censorship and the developers' intentions [4]. Square Enix addressed these concerns, stating that the redesign aimed for a more athletic and natural look, especially considering Tifa's role as a fighter [4] [5]. The developers wanted to avoid an "unnatural" appearance during fight sequences, leading to the inclusion of a sports bra to provide proper support [5].
The Final Fantasy VII Remake Ultimania, a book containing in-depth information about the game, seemingly confirmed Tifa's bra size [3]. According to the Ultimania, Tifa's bra size is a Japanese G70, which is roughly a 32" DDD [3]. This information, though initially from early receivers of the book, has been widely accepted as official confirmation [3]. Furthermore, the developers have seemingly increased her breast size in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth to please the fans [2].
Fan Reactions and Ongoing Discussions
Square Enix has been careful in addressing the concerns of fans while also adhering to global age rating standards [4]. The company's ethics department plays a role in ensuring that the game's content is appropriate for its target audience [4].
Square Enix's Approach
The topic of Tifa's appearance continues to generate discussion among fans. Some fans have expressed their appreciation for the character's design, while others have focused on the technical aspects of her portrayal [6]. The bikini scene in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth has also been a hot topic [6].
