Reno
Supporting Character 01
JP CV: Keiji Fujiwara
ENG CV: Quinton Flynn
Character Overview
A member of the Turks with hair dyed a flamboyant red. He wears his black suit with the collar casually open, and his skillful mastery of his steel rod causes him to give the impression of a delinquent, but he takes pride in the missions he is given, and he rarely lets his personal feelings get in the way. Therefore, he can be said to be the person supporting the Turks’ hidden side, as he does not hesitate to commit acts that are, in some cases, inhumane. In addition, he often acts together with Rude on missions, and the two have become what can be called partners.
Reno Highlight selection 1 — Chapter 3
← Although he ends his sentences with “dazo, to,” a unique way of speaking that gives the impression he doesn’t take things seriously, he is actually loyal to his mission.
TL Note: “dazo, to” is Reno’s Japanese speech tic. In the Compilation of FFVII, this is usually localized as “yo”.
Reno Highlight selection 2 — Epilogue
← He performs all kinds of missions with a variety of skills, from fighting to piloting helicopters.
Rude
Supporting Character 02
JP CV: Taiten Kusunoki
ENG CV: Crispin Freeman
Character Overview
A member of the Turks, whose trademark is that he is a skinhead. He always wears sunglasses and always has a spare pair in his pocket in case they break. In addition to his strong appearance, he is extremely taciturn, giving off an intimidating air that makes it difficult to approach him, but he also shows a deeply compassionate and loyal side towards his friends. Among the Turks, he and Reno have a particularly long friendship and are often assigned on missions together. Compared to Reno, who acts with little thought, Rude is quite the theorist, which is probably why they fit together as a duo so well.
Rude Highlight selection 1 — Chapter 3
← Rude’s weapons are his own fists. He wears black leather gloves for protection.
Rude Highlight selection 2 — Epilogue
← Although their personalities are quite different, he and Reno seem to get along well and act as good partners.
in 『FF VII』 Series
Deeply Loyal Key Members of the Turks
Reno and Rude have appeared in most of the FFVII series as key members of the Turks. As in this work, they appeared in BC and FFVII acting as an operational unit in the Turks. They and other members of the Turks are extremely loyal to Shinra, and even after the collapse of Shinra, they assist Rufus, who is the president in AC.
← Sometimes they joined forces with Cloud’s group, their enemies, to save their companions.
← BC had “Reno: Special Chapter”, where Reno is the main character. The incidents that occur in this work [CC] are depicted from a different perspective.
← Even though Shinra has faded, they are still the best duo, and their relationship has not changed.
