About

Yuffie Kisaragi is a secret playable character in Final Fantasy VII. She is a Ninja and a Thief, wielding a large shuriken. As rebellious and cocky tomboy, Yuffie desires to make her homeland Wutai the glorious nation it was before being conquered by Shinra. Despite her sometimes obnoxious personality, she is friendly and helpful as well and willingly helps the party in their battles. Yuffie is very short, being only 5'2" tall. Her black hair is very short, except for in Dirge of Cerberus where her hair reaches down to her shoulders. Her eyes are dark brown in Advent Children and Dirge of Cerberus, although in her main concept images her eyes are colored purple. Underneath her hair, Yuffie wears a headband, and a short green shirt with tan shorts. Her left arm has a large covering, presumably meant to act as a shield, and her left leg is supported by some type of brace. Her weapon of choice is a large fuma shuriken.

In Advent Children, Yuffie wears a flowered black shirt with a dark gray vest and khaki shorts, and her braces and arm guard are gone. She retains this appearance in Kingdom Hearts II. The animators for the film have noted that Nomura wanted Yuffie to have a "cute" face, and her facial animations were constantly redone. Her Wutai heritage also gave them an opportunity to use Japanese clothing stylings not present in the appearances of the other characters.

In Kingdom Hearts, her appearance is similar to her clothing in Final Fantasy VII, just without the arm guard and braces. In Dirge of Cerberus, she is again without the braces and arm guard, and her shirt is blue and her shorts are yellow. In Crisis Core, a much younger Yuffie wears a green kimono with yellow linings, and she wears basically the same outfit with inverted colors in Before Crisis.
Yuffie has a very cocky and rude personality, and at times can be aggressive and a bit of a tomboy. She has a tendency to bestow honorific titles on herself, such as "great ninja Yuffie" and "the single white rose of Wutai". Yuffie has little tolerance for tradition and is highly rebellious to the very old-fashioned ways of Wutai, which lead to her clashing with her father Godo Kisaragi. She is also very clever and cunning, able to trick the party with ease. Despite this, she is not at all adverse to heroics and is still a reliable ally and friend of the main characters.

Yuffie is also the subject of two running jokes in the series. One is her motion sickness, as she gets very ill whenever on a moving vehicle, be it an airship or a boat. The other is her obsession with Materia - when she joined the party, it was merely to steal their Materia from them. In Final Fantasy VII, she claims she wants Materia because Shinra banned it in Wutai and she wants to use it to restore Wutai's glory. However, her obsession is shown to be intact in her appearances before and after the game, so the validity of this is dubious.
Yuffie was born at an unspecified time, but seems to be somewhere around the end of the Wutai War. Her mother is never mentioned, and is seemingly deceased. As a child, Yuffie watched Wutai turn into a tourist resort and grew up on stories about how the area used to be a place of honorable mystique before Shinra came.
Yuffie appears as a child in Before Crisis -Final Fantasy VII-, and encounters the player Turk in Wutai, where AVALANCHE has set up a stronghold in the pagoda. Pursued by AVALANCHE, she is saved by the player Turk and quickly starts scheming to steal their Materia moments after learning what Materia even is.

Yuffie follows the player Turk into the AVALANCHE base and steals the detonators for bombs that had been planted in the pagoda, and the player Turk must chase her and get it back. However, Yuffie accidentally presses the detonator switch, and she and the Turk must cooperate to escape. However, once they rendezvous with Tseng, she realizes the player Turk is with Shinra and flees.
Yuffie appears in Crisis Core when Zack invades Wutai. She describes herself as "Wutai's Strongest Warrior". Zack plays along with her antics and she runs off. After losing to Midgar, Yuffie's father Godo Kisaragi as the leader of Wutai, began to turn their home into a tourist attraction for outsiders. This did not suit Yuffie who eventually began running off, stealing Materia from unaware travelers. Later on in the game, when Zack is at Mako Reactor 5, he gets mail from someone named "Treasure Princess" looking for someone to help her steal treasure. It later turns out to be Yuffie using the information she received from a "blond man" to enlist Zack's help to find treasures (This blond man is speculated to either be Lazard Deusericus or Rufus Shinra in the Crisis Core Ultimania but neither is ever confirmed.) By the end of their working relationship, Yuffie manages to steal Zack's Bahamut Fury Materia but returns it as she is unable to use it. Final Fantasy VII
Yuffie is one of two secret characters in Final Fantasy VII (the other being Vincent Valentine), and is a materia hunter. She can be found in any forest on the World Map after leaving the Mythril Mines at any point in the game. Yuffie's level will be adjusted depending upon the player's current level. If the player defeats her in combat and then chooses a series of correct answers in dialogue with her, she will join the party. An incorrect answer causes her to steal something and flee.

Yuffie later steals the party's Materia when they enter Wutai, and they must chase her and save her from Don Corneo before she returns it. She then proves herself to her father by beating the bosses of Wutai's Five Story Pagoda, and her father begins to understand the reasoning behind her position. At the end of disc one, it is possible to get Cloud to go on a date with either her, Aeris, Tifa, or Barret. At the date, however, Cloud ignores all of her movements toward him, and gets smacked more than twice. She is the only character to kiss Cloud in the date sequence.

Being an optional character, she was not included in the ending FMV of the game, though can still be used in the Final Dungeon at the Northern Crater and the Final Battle with Safer Sephiroth. This is remedied by the opening of Dirge of Cerberus, which shows her and Vincent at Midgar, evacuating the citizens and Shinra personnel before Meteor hit. After placing an injured Rufus Shinra aboard a helicopter, Yuffie warns Vincent to be careful in his search of the Mako Cannon. She later saves him as the building collapses from a lightning strike.
Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children

Yuffie in Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children."All right, who's been touching my materia?"
—Yuffie in Advent Children
Yuffie makes a cameo in Advent Children along with all the other playable characters in the game. She arrives in Edge via Cid's airship (still showing signs of motion sickness after parachuting down). She helps the party to defeat Bahamut SIN, and brings Cloud's collection of Materia to the ruins of Midgar aboard the Shera.

During the bonus feature "Reminiscence of Final Fantasy VII," Yuffie sends a 'Closed for Business' sign to Barret through Strife Delivery Service as a way of getting Cloud to take a day off. She also seems to call Vincent Valentine in the time after Advent Children, because Vincent asks Cloud to relay a message to her, claiming that she has no right to call his phone.
Dirge of Cerberus -Final Fantasy VII-
"I am the champion of the earth and the sky. I am the conqueror of evil. The single white rose of Wutai...Yuffie Kisaragi!"
—Yuffie in Dirge of Cerberus
Being forced into joining the World Regenesis Organization, Yuffie is in charge of the espionage and intelligence gathering. She is the one who rescues Vincent from Rosso the Crimson in the Shinra Mansion, where the bloodthirsty Tsviet was about to kill him, and takes him back to the WRO Headquarters. Onboard the Shera, she still carries her motion sickness with her, and leads the troops from the airships to the ground for the Battle of Midgar to shut down a generator inside the ShinRa building. Then she and Vincent go into DeepGround in attempt to kill Weiss but are stopped by Nero, who sucked Yuffie into Darkness and Vincent goes to save her, since Nero's darkness does not affect him. She and other AVALANCHE members aided Vincent in Omega Weapon's destruction and is seen last in Seventh Heaven, asking Tifa if she has heard from Cloud.
