Like in the FFVII forums, there are Cloud and Tifa and Cloud and Aerith fan threads. So I wanted to make a thread specially for Squall and Rinoa, and there adoring fans!


Note: Those who are not fans are welcome(those who maybee prefer Squall and Quistis etc.), and may debate if appropriate, but if it gets overboard to the point where it's flamming others, I will report to a moderator. Refrain from constant argueing too.

Enjoy Squall and Rinoa fans! Have fun!

Uh-oh, I hope this won't be a warzone like the Cloud & Tifa thread:D .

Just kidding. Yeah it's obvious they were the official couple of FFVIII since they were mostly revolved around the story which robbed the other character's of FMV and story time but I won't get into that. Yes I think they were a good couple and since Squall was really determined to get Rinoa out of her coma (Just like how Tifa helped Cloud in the Lifestream), it just changed their relationship showing Rinoa that Squall really cared for her. Then of course all that led to the perfect ending.(Hell at least the whoole orphange gang was their so it would'nt just be another Squall and Rinoa FMV)

Don't worry; that's why I simply made it clear not to flame; I warned them that their post will be reported.

Square made Squall and Rinoa the official couple; even the commercial(I remember) said so itself; "He will win the heart, of the woman he loves!". I remember when the FFVIII comercial said that.

No, let's restate that:

Those who are not fans are welcome, but if it gets overboard to the point where it's flaming others, I will close this thread.

lets get some debating started hehe, i think seifer and rinoa cud really hit it off... anyone agree? they wud look great as a couple

i agree. when they think seifer was killed it looked like she really cared about him and she reminisces about last year with him.

I don't think Squall and Rinoa were very convincing as a couple. I know the addage that "opposites attract" and all, but I never got the impression that either one genuinely cared about each other romantically.

I always wondered what Rinoa meant by that finger gesture...

... and now I know!

I don't. :-( What "finger gesture"?

I think that Squall and Rinoa are a very great couple! nothing can spilt them apart. lol. at least, that what I think.

I also agree they are kool 2gether but I'm sure Seifer and Rinoa wud be a much better couple, she also cares so much for him, we all saw how upset she was when they think sefier was killed

At first, but after his physical abuse with her(SPOILER! At the end when he pushed her into Adel: some people to consder that physical abuse.), never again! She did put all her strength into helping Squall out, and in the end, he appriaciated her and helped him come out of his shell. I always thought the love triangle was Squall, Rinoa, and Quistis. I never thought of it being Squall, Rinoa, and Seifer. Squall and Rinoa all da' way! They're a good couple!

But to those who have a different opinion on that; no worries ;)! Ya'll will be safe with sharing them with me. Although you may like the unofficial couples of FFVIII, I may not share the same opinion, but I do see it clear where ya'll come from; I've been a fan of other unofficial couples myself. A good friend once said; "if a character ends up with someone else, never let that affect the couples you love!". Continue to like what you like! Ya'll are safe with me!

nah there is no doubt about it they are suited

who else is there quistis, maybe Selphie,naHHH edea,AHHHHHHHHHAHHHHHHHAHHHH
fujin HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA yeah right

I like the Squall and Rinoa couple. Questis and Squall may make a good couple as well, but I don't see that happening.

So yeah I like Squall&Rinoa.

At first, but after his physical abuse with her(SPOILER! At the end when he pushed her into Adel: some people to consder that physical abuse.), never again!


ah seifer was just suffering from temporary insanity at the time. :p
before rinoa really got to know squall she wanted to be with seifer i think because she already knew him, at the SeeD graduation party she talked a lot with him about the state of things in Timber (and perhaps other things, i can only guess) when Squall meets her at the base she asks if Seifer was there too and when they all think Seifer was executed she talks about the time she spent with him.

yeah Squall and Rinoa might be the official couple but if Seifer had become a SeeD (for example) or hadn't he joined Edea things might have been different. but unfortunately when Seifer returns to his old self at the end of the game Rinoa has turned to Squall.
but i for one would like to see what would it be like with Rinoa and Seifer.
My favorite characters are Squall and Seifer but i like Seifer slightly better. :D

nah there is no doubt about it they are suited

who else is there quistis, maybe Selphie,naHHH edea,AHHHHHHHHHAHHHHHHHAHHHH
fujin HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA yeah right


Well, I always thought Quistis would be suited for Seifer, lol!

For Selphie, this one's obvious; Irvine!

At first, but after his physical abuse with her(SPOILER! At the end when he pushed her into Adel:


sure he did that, but whose got the power to fight back a force so strong as ultimecia??? like back in ff7 cloud is controled by sephiroth. so we really can't blame seifer. and like rinoa says they did have a gud time before. and it really wud be interestin to see those two in different situations. :) dont blame me i'm just sayin cos seifer is the coolest for me. (btw: entire ppl in ff8 is cool)

Hmm...I would have to agree. Seifer was not bad....just misguided, like Sephiroth. Although we all know the outcome of what happen to him in FF7. Well, Squall and Rinoa are not bad. They are made for each other and Rinoa is like Squll's light. Although I would like Squall and Quistis as a couple because its sorta funny and romantic to me when Quistis knows what Squall's thinking and completes his lines, I'm glad Quistis understood how Squall felt. I just wish he was a little nicer to her...well, maybe at the very end he was. Ah yes, I like his cheerful, carefree, nice, caring, kind attitude more at the end...even though all it was, was just him videotaping..but he wave to other people. YAY!

Yeah, but he was also very arrogant at the beggining thinking he was better than any other student and that was half the reasong why he was misguided by the sorceress, he wanted to show he was better than everyone, and I didn't like that.

Aeriscloud, you have some good reasons for liking Quistis and Squall ;). I guess Rinoa was able to bring out Squall more because she would keep talking and not give him a second to speak, so he gave up being hidden all the time because of her. I noticed Quistis would give him a minute. On your side, you like Quistis and Squall because she was able to understand everything he was thinking. You have very good reasons ;).

I perfered Rinoa and Squall. I think they just made Rinoa/Squall for the whole opposites attract and how since shes so cheerful she might open Squall up. For this reason Quistis wouldnt be the greatest choice for Squall, since she is depressed half the time since she doesnt have squalls love (doesnt this sound life tifa?!). Still, it seemed that before I met Rinoa when I first played I was set that it was Quisits for his love, since she just seemed so .. in touch with squall.

still like rinoa and squall though. and the possibilty of rinoa and seifer sounds nice too. since they did go out the previous summer...

I don't think Squall and Rinoa were very convincing as a couple. I know the addage that "opposites attract" and all, but I never got the impression that either one genuinely cared about each other romantically.

:(
Cris = meany

I think Squall & Rinoa make an execellent couple. Squall & Quistis would have made a good couple too. When I first played FF8 I thought Squall & Selphie would end up together. I think that would have been pretty funny.

lol, im imagining it. Selphie is waaaaaaaay to hyper for Squall, I mean not even irvine can keep up with her!

What about Zell who should he end up with? I though Selphie would be a good match for him.

Zell had the librarian girl. lol :D

What about Zell who should he end up with? I though Selphie would be a good match for him.

I agree, but Selphie does get Irvine. god is dead, who do you mean, the libary girl? Are you talking about Ellone, or Rinoa?

My favorite parings are:

Squall & Rinoa
Selphie & Irvine
Quistis & Seifer
Fujin & Raijin
Edea & Cid
Laguna & Raine

That'd be funny if Zell ended up with Ellone, lol.

that girl from the Garden library that really liked Zell. i can't believe that no one remembers her.
she even gives Zell one of the Combat King magazines.
her name appears as "library girl with a pigtail"

siefer and quistis that is so hard to even imagine

Heh, now I remeber. There should have been more on that realationship ship though.

yeah but still can you imagine zell with a library completly the opposite types him and her

siefer and quistis that is so hard to even imagine


I can only think of that because they're the same age.

My favourite couple is Zell and the hotdogs...

yeah and in the end he finally is able to eat them. lol he even chokes. that was funny.

Are the Hotdogs really that great there, if so then I wanna try them.

I liked Rinoa and Squall ... the way their romance formed was so cool ^_^ I dream of romances like that a lot. I think Quistis is more of a friend or big sister to Squall if you ask me ... I can never see them together. I heart Zell XD And wasn't the pigtail girl sitting with him when he was eating at the end of the game? At least ... I think that was her o.O BTW aren't Raijin and Fujin brother and sister? o.O

You're right. Quistis is more like an older sister because you notice at the begining she lectures him alot. That's just like an older sibling to do that.

SQUALL COULD NEVER BE WITH QUISTIS!!!!! shes his teacher! thats just weird. Squall and Rinoa i beleive is the officical couple of FFVIII! It just makes more sense that way. *shakes head* Squall and Quistis who would have ever thought that they would even be a couple! Oh thats just my opinion.

Neat! A thread for my favorite ff couple. I love Rinoa and Squall..they just look great together. And since their personalities are different, they'll click. I'm glad about the fact that Rinoa made Squall a better person. No one's ever done that to him before. Only her. Seifer..yea I think he's a great guy and he loved Rinoa (maybe he still does after knowing that Rinoa's new love is Squall) but I prefer Squall. Because he showed Rinoa how much he cares for her. Seifer never did that. And as for Quistis and Squall being a couple, no offense meant, but I could never picture them being together. Quistis, at times, can be bossy and I dont think Squall would like that. He and Rinoa are the perfect pair.

Seifer..yea I think he's a great guy and he loved Rinoa (maybe he still does after knowing that Rinoa's new love is Squall)

yeah he sure does love her and misses the garden, u can see that at the end movie when the garden flies over him. and it's nice of him to still hang with the only two friends he had (Fujin, Raigin). I think seifer let rinoa go cos she is happy with squall cos he wants to see her happy :)

yeah but look there is no age difference and i think she fancies him and looks up to him for guidance

kinda jelouse of Squall having such a cute girl I bet Quistes is also

Griever: Yea.. kinda feel sorry for him. but im sure he'll eventually find his new love cos he's changed already ^_^

i think quistis is prettier than rinoa and i think that squall should be with him

i think Quistis should instead end up with Seifer because they are somehow alike (both are bossy).And we've seen in the game, She and Squall could never be cos they simply dont click and are not compatible presonality-wise. and for me, Rinoa's still the prettiest..

nah selphie would be well suited for seifer i think

what??? but she and irvine look so cute together... :( but o well..u could be right too cos seifer's changed for the better anyway..

yep i dont like irvine hes a idiot
i think selphie and seifer would make as good a couple as zell and those hotdogs lol

yes irvine may like selphie but still there's no assurance that he'll stick to her because as we all know, irvine is a player..

i reckon that squall and rinoa were made for eacher and that zell and quistis were made for each other i duno why but they just seem to click but thats me for ya! n selphie was definatly made for irvine!! even tho irvine is a spoon

yeah, that's just totally right, squall and rinoa are made for each other. also i think that quistis is made for seifer and, zell for the library girl and selphie for irvine. even though yeah irvine is a spoon:p

skip this if you haven't completed the game yet!!!




awwwww... it's so sweet!!!! i just completed the trip on the moon and seeing squall and rinoa together on the ragnarok... and when they went to get rinoa back... the FMV how rinoa fell in to squall's hands... it was just so sweet ^_^ i just can't wait to see what happens next!:) but i think that completing the game won't take much time, cause after that trip on the moon i just can't seem to be without playing the game for long. i want to see the ending!!!:p

The ending is good too, but I promise not to spoil it ;). I like how they play that song when they're on the Ragnorak "Eyes On Me".

Did you say squall should be with him -selphie

If you like the ragnarok part you'll like the ending better rinoa is cute real cute when she was looking for squall and the theme song really match with the flower field spreading like that.

now i know that in the end rinoa looks at squall, there are flowers spreading and there's a theme song:p

yeah i like that too ^_^ but the best part i've seen is squall's face when he rescues rinoa:p it's good to see a little more gentle look on his face.

Rinoa n Squall were perfect for themselves it was bound to happen ever since they first laid eyes on each otha

Rinoa n Squall were perfect for themselves it was bound to happen ever since they first laid eyes on each otha

i simply love squall and rinoa. i remember crying in the ragnarok scene. it touched me so deeply. he cares for her in his own way that he can't expres very well. its so sweet to see them take each other of of thier respective shells. they are my favorite video game couple. ^_^

it doens't hurt that all my friends say my b/f and i are like them either ^_^

hehe. i just wanna post my favorite quotes in ff8. i have two. ^_^ and these quotes show how important Rinoa is for Squall...

Squall: I don't know what to do... This is just another crossroad in my
life. But, for the first time, I don't know which way to go. I've come
this far because I've...fallen for you. ......Rinoa...... Now...am I just
supposed
to let you go...?

Squall: (Rinoa......) (Even if you end up as the world's enemy.) (I'll...)
(I'll be your knight.)

Skip this if haven't completed the game yet!!!!!!!!!

ok i just finished the game.... and you were right! i did like the ending:) ok that's actually wrong... i LOVED (and still love) the ending! the best thing was the eyes on me. and ofcourse the FMV after the credits ^_^.
i didn't beleive my eyes when ultimecia started to dissapear!! i thought she'll be a very, i mean very tough enemy. but fortunately i had squall fighting at the very beginning and so it was not so tough after all.
i think i'll go fight her again. and maybe again. and again:p since i really enjoyed the ending and the eyes on me:) witch reminds me... i have to go find my post about my favourite FF8 music and add eyes on me there too...

P.S. Zell looks so cute when his mouth is filled with hod dogs:D

yes merxzzz he was funny. and im sure u've also seen the final fmv where squall and rinoa kissed? or you turned the ps off already? :(

ps: angelo's so cuuute and cuddly in the ending credits ^_^

yes merxzzz he was funny. and im sure u've also seen the final fmv where squall and rinoa kissed? or you turned the ps off already? :(

ps: angelo's so cuuute and cuddly in the ending credits ^_^

ofcourse i saw that:D i read somewhere that it's not recommended to turn it off. and after all... i am an obedient girl :p

yes merxzzz he was funny. and im sure u've also seen the final fmv where squall and rinoa kissed? or you turned the ps off already? :(

but it was from a far view right? hehe

yeah! it was from a far view >_< i wish they had close up shots. >_< >:(

omg!!! ahh why did they not put up close up shots?! they jipped us :P

i fight ultimecia constantly just to see the ending.. i loved the whole time warp thing!

Hehe..It's pretty obvious who the main couple is here. If some people think otherwise, or are in denile...They need to open their eyes and see the word CANON right in front of them

NOTE: Much like the Cloriths. ;?

Some people that prefer different pairings, aren't in denile, they just like those characters to be together. For example, some people like Squall and Selphie, others, Quistis and Squall. It's all about opinion, sort of like Cloud and Tifa. ;)

I love Squall. He's so cute and has a great personality. His relationship with Rinoa is so sweet.
