As their relationship developed, Zack eventually became Sephiroth's only friend left in SOLDIER: Zack shows no signs of being intimidated by Sephiroth, being fully willing to talk back to him, which clearly impresses Sephiroth, even making show fondness, but at the same time he does acknowledge Sephiroth as a superior SOLDIER, following his instructions diligently when they endeavored to save Angeal and Genesis. Nevertheless, Zack deeply admired and respected Sephiroth as the SOLDIER Hero and Sephiroth in return did save Zack from Ifrit and took over Angeal's role as Zack's mentor, teaching him how to emulate his Octaslash and take down enemies in one blow: Though showing professional and strict behavior, it supports the possibility that Sephiroth and Zack had met before and cared for one another as fellow SOLDIER even before Zack became SOLDIER 1ST Class. Zack and Sephiroth: It remains unclear whether Zack and Sephiroth had interacted before, even though Zack was Angeal's student, who was in return Sephiroth's friend, but it's possible they may have met as Zack easily recognized Sephiroth when a data simulation of him attacked him.Alas, though Angeal also continued to deeply care for Zack, defending and helping him numerous times, their friendship came to a tragic end when Zack was forced by Angeal to kill him by Angeal transforming himself into Angeal Penance, with Angeal passing on the Buster Sword to Zack before his death, leaving Zack devastated but he was able to find the determination to continue on in order to live up to Angeal's dreams. His compassion and trust for Angeal is shown by how he refused to believe Angeal would betray SOLDIER and despite being enraged when seeing Angeal seemingly murdering his mother and punching him down, continued to hold out to hope that Angeal was still a SOLDIER at heart. Years spent under Angeal's mentorship has built in Zack a deep sense of admiration and respect for Angeal and strong bond with him. Zack and Angeal: Angeal was impressed by Zack's talent and took him under his wing.His heart remains loyal to Aerith as he tries to return to her to fulfill her wishes and his promise to her despite all the risk with her words that she'd be waiting for him being his last thought before being gunned down. Years of experiment under Shinra finally broke Zack's loyalty but he never loses his dream and pride. Zack's courage and morality can at times make him more serious and even ruthless, as after Sephiroth destroyed Nibelheim, Zack lost all hope for Sephiroth and did not hesitate to confront and try to kill him, despite knowing fully well of Sephiroth's skill that could very well and did indeed outmatch his. Zack even continues to appeal to Genesis's SOLDIER pride and honor and is ultimately successful, earning Genesis's respect. He is devastated particularly over having to kill Angeal with his own hands. He is protective of his friends, ironically, being forced to kill Angeal, Essai, and Sebastian when they turn into monsters. Angeal's words of valuing dreams and honor have had a great impact on Zack and he goes on to become SOLDIER's spiritual leader after his mentor.ĭespite his loyalty to Shinra, Zack ultimately stays true to his morals and heart: He refuses to kill Genesis and Angeal despite Shinra's order, which earns him Sephiroth's respect and friendship. He is sociable and easily befriends almost everyone. He is loyal to SOLDIER and dreams of becoming a hero. His energetic personality and low attention span earned the nickname "Zack the Puppy" from Angeal. Zack has a positive attitude and is always ready for work. Later, Zack obtains the Buster Sword as well as an X-shaped scar on his lower left cheek and his spiky hair become longer and wilder with a lock of hair hanging down in front of his face. Later, he is upgraded to a black 1st Class SOLDIER uniform. At first, he wears a dark blue SOLDIER uniform, gloves, boots, and is equipped with a standard SOLDIER sword, even if most 2nd Class members of SOLDIER wear red and magenta uniforms. He starts with spiky black hair and having several bangs framing the sides of his face. Zack's appearance goes through a series of changes throughout Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII. Zack is tall, well-built, and has the iconic sky-blue "Mako eyes" many SOLDIER members have.
