Something that everyone has neglected to point out about Cloud (the so called main character of FF7) is that somehow, without any explanation whatsover, he went from a regular military guy that couldn't do shit, to a badass in similar strength to Zack (if that's Aeris' former b/f's name, can't fully recall) and Sephiroth when they were both in their prime as members of Soldier.

I guess the theme is anything you can do I can do better???!!!??? Cuz Cloud is definitely the best one at it since he just said he would be like them and next day he was no longer afraid of anything and would kick ass back and forth. Go figure!

Oh... that one was because he was injected with the Jenova cells.

 

 

As was Zack and ever other member Soldier. It still makes little sense honestly.

 

 

Zack was physically stronger than Cloud and pretty much everyone else other than Sephiroth. What the story of FFVII is trying to portray is that that strength derived from Zack's confidence. Zack lost that Confidence while facing Sephiroth, he was his mentor and friend. Cloud had to face him himself as he was now overwhelmed with rage and fury (Seph hit Tifa). He obtained the confidence to face Sephiroth and wounded him badly.

The seens of Cloud vs Sephiroth in the flashbacks are also metaphors for the struggle between JENOVA and the PLANET. Jenova is a parisite that feeds off of the living. The Planet, even while weakened, will defend itself from a much greater force.
