You can't say that for sure. They are either a couple (which is heavily implied) or they have adopted each other as siblings. They are not blood related.

No, it can be said for sure, because there’s no on-screen confirmation of a romantic relationship. There are no open displays of romance between the two. For the record, an open display of romantic affection in a Final Fantasy game looks like the constant open displays of affection between Cecil and Rosa in FF4, or the awkward and utterly forced but still present romantic development between Squall and Rinoa in FF8.

You’re resorting to imaginary breast groping and a discarded development concept (Fang as a man) to justify your projection of two sibling-like female characters secretly engaging in an off-screen, undepicted relationship. Hilariously silly.

Yuri fangirls’ motto: “If it doesn’t exist, make it up anyway!”

Oh, and PS, Lightning and Hope aren’t doing the nasty either.

Have you finished the game? If so, whole game spoilers ahead~ Which I thought wouldnt be as long >.> You said something, and now I've given my long ass opinion :)

We'll disregard the boob touching and skirt flipping even though I don't do that with my sister or close friends.
Fang is a lesbian. If you have not realized this by now, well...idk what to say.
That aside. Fang always refers to Vanille as her "partner". And if one of my siblings were to turn into a l'cie and bound to be cieth or crystal, I wouldnt say something super dramatic as "I'll tear down the sky if it'll save her."
Saying that isn't what siblings or close friends would say.(It's certainly not what Lightning said when Serah turned to crystal)
When Hope says Which is your house? Vanille replies" What do you mean..which is OUR house?" Sure you can say they lived together as sisters, but given the hints you wouldnt think like that.
Fang was meant to be a man. Start visualizing Fang as a man and then think of the situation between him & Vanille, THEN you wouldnt say what you just said.
And just for the record, if you've seen at least one or two yuri animes &/or mangas, the ending scene of the game where Fang & Vanille are turned to crystal and the way they are together is THE scene represented all the time in Yuri .
Also damn it, I'm writing a story here -.-
Fang talks about Vanille like you talk about a significant other... that their life is infinitely more important than yours, yes she does care about the other members , but vanille is her #1 priority. She doesn't treat her like a comrade in arms(like she treats Lightning or the others). Not even close. And Vanille... remember when Sahz asked her if she had a special someone? She immediately got quiet and looked sad, and had an inner monologue about waiting for the right time to tell him about everything. Clearly the question made her think of Fang.

They are a couple. A couple of people!
*ba-dum tish*
Though I have to say I thought this was Meiling and Sakuya at first glance from the thumbnail.

Lightning sees Hope as a younger brother, basically.

There are only two couples in the game, and both are already established and very obvious.

Fang and Vanille aren't a couple.

It may just be me but I see a growing bond though-out most there time with each other. I'm trying not to say anything for people that have not played the game but they seem to grow with each others word's and actions through out the game.

If you look at most cut scenes they stay rather close to each other. Also towered the end of the game she looks at him many times with a smile.
It may just be me but I like this couple they grow together that's how most couples are.

Its pretty apparent that they would have never had any development without each other. Light would still want to destroy cocoon and Hope would still be weak and hateful towered snow.

anyway I think there cute <3

yeah a little bro big sis bond i assume? cuz that's what i see in their bond...

Doesa it help that they have teh Light and Hope motif thing. THis art looks like they do something before hand. Good art.

No not at all. They develop a close bond and they do in fact care about each other. But you know how people like to take things...to the next level and things like these happen.

People are really pushing the couple thing in FF13. I can't really find any romance in it (which i like mind you).

I agree. And almost all the couple art I've been seeing has been Hope/Lightning...does the game really give off strong vibes in that direction?

People are really pushing the couple thing in FF13. I can't really find any romance in it (which i like mind you). Still I know a good picture when i see one.
