【FF-Ⅶ】Combine 6 Swords! How to Make Cloud's Fusion sword

[@GeebusCrust]

So, what's crazier: That this design wasn't total BS and actually possible, or that this madlad went and DID IT

[@Schlittlenutacus]

Yes

[@RaZeyLWindBladE]

Yes

[@Noobnormality]

Wouldn't call it a total bs. First of all it's a fantasy world, and second of all it's made by a mechanical designer. Designing one of these, even if its total bs, is an extremely hard job to do

[@keybae23]

and what makes it crazier is he made it out of cardboard

[@fyreflare9573]

Both

[@knightghaleon]

I was impressed by how clean each individual sword was made, but you went above and beyond and got them to combine to the full movie sword. Absolutely blown away by this man's craftmanship.

[@Pestigirioso]

The most impressive part of this craft is how one handle can hold all the weight

[@outamym1nd695]

That's why he reinforced it with those pieces of plexiglass

[@Vaxsysl]

Watches the video until the end. Nods in big approval. Seems recommended video of him making a bike to store it. WHAT??!!!

[@brycebledsoe3870]

The commitment to also make holsters deserves this man a prize

[@robert1589]

Japanese Meth wins

[@DraconaiAuracto]

Especially since even THAT uses the canon design.

[@dingdong5212]

Wow. I found you about a decade too late. I used to make anything and everything out of cardboard and whatever else I could find. I’m happy to see the fine art of cardboard art won’t be lost!

[@TheKamiBunny]

I saw someone make the design in miniature that worked a few years ago and was hoping someone would have the skill and determination to do the same full sized one. The world does not disappoint.

[@DraconaiAuracto]

Magnets were an AWESOME touch. Dude has already been wearing the Buster Sword on his back with a giant freaking magnet to keep it there, using magnets as the connector of his Fusion Swords is a stroke of genius.

[@DraconaiAuracto]

I have never clicked on anything (that I didn't specifically search for) quite as quickly as this video claiming to have made a FULLY INTERLOCKING SET OF FUSION SWORDS. Not only did you do exactly as promised, but you even made the construction process interesting. Well done my good sir.

[@ねじまき鳥-p7u]

磁石やネジ、蝶番も使って可変するのカッコいい。合体、分解するのカッコいい。

[@vthalucard519]

I've never wanted a cardboard sword ever in my life till now

[@alexandriaprime4503]

Watching this and suddenly I'm reminded how much of a walking arsenal Cloud became. He's got like, what, 6, 7 swords on him at all times?

[@JebAlert]

One of the (many) best parts of the movie is in the beginning he uses just the middle centerpiece blade and as the situation escalates and he comes to terms with his trauma you slowly watch him get more and more serious with the fusion sword/first tsugiri as he keeps removing more and more of the sub blade from his bike and adding them to the sword until he finally has the full sword assembled for his fight with Sephiroth at the end before disassembling it again and using each piece individually for the Omnislash V5. Such a fun little piece of character building and story telling through prop design while also being completely rule of cool badass.

[@Netherwolf6100]

7. Called the Fusion Sword or First Tsurugi. It was his replacement after he used his Buster Sword as Zack's Tombstone after the events of FF7. Has the ability to combine by channeling his energy into it, making it more compact and stronger, or separate on the fly giving him different strength and speed options.

[@thechosenone93]

Every single design of each sword is magnificent...especially the fourth one in the thumbnail

[@アンニュイ-w2f]

実際に映像から作るのも凄いけど、合体までできるように作り込んだゲームの製作陣もかなり凄い。

[@sparking023]

The design of this sword is just so awesome. Not only is it ridiculously big, you also get a much higher sword per sword ratio. Final Fantasy at it's finest

[@noa_yamatori]

We just need metal versions of these and we're truly golden. Love this!

[@Nowe-lz7mt]

凄過ぎる。こういう素敵な動画が溢れて欲しい。

[@dairoleon2682]

God, can you imagine this thing being made of... well, literally any metal? It'd probably weigh a couple hundred pounds. Also, if it's anything ferrous, you'd need superhuman strength just to dismantle it because the magnets would stick the parts together like flat Lego pieces.

[@kevinpalmer4137]

Maybe it could use electro magnets such as to deactivate them if need be

[@MinatheValkyrie]

I have seen and owned at one time a variation of it that was for cosplay made of metal. It only split into four swords though, and it was rather hefty. Still is a proof of concept that it could be done.

[@yummychips_]

@@MinatheValkyrie I think, iron carbon alluminum alloy in theory could work. That should reduce the weight by a lot, and still retain some strenght, however only when fully assembled. It should still be around 50-80lb sword tho. So it will take some one quite strong to weild, let alone learn how to weild it properly. The individual swords would be much lighter, but due to their lenght wouldn't be very strong. The concept is cool, but just not practical. The sword is just far to big, and even if you made an alternate version at smaller scale, it will still run into weight to power problems.

[@jayglier]

If I recall from another video several years ago, Shadiversity I think, in the lore the only the edge was steel the rest was aluminum, still an 60-80lb sword

[@Cerxen]

@@jayglier I believe there was also a full steel version made by man at arms and it was so heavy the blacksmith threw his back out making it.

[@groove2056]

これちゃんと現実で再現可能な構造なんだｗ

[@卯巳酉華山]

最近Xで海外でクラウドのバスターソードしかり色んなゲームの大剣を刀で再現して振り回してた画像はあったよ。その内、こういった合体剣の複雑な剣技やFFのできそうもない剣技、デビルメイクライのような理解しがたい武器も海外のガチ勢なら再現しそうだね。

Thank you KZbin algorithm for recommending this banger of a video! I’ve always wondered how a Fusion Sword would actually work, and you did a fantastic job here!

See, this is the kind of play set I would buy for my kids. Imagine the bragging rights for just having this!

段ボールさんがすごいのはそうなんだが、 ちゃんと現実に可能な武器設計にしてる、スクエニさんもやっぱすげぇ

[@yudisuryoyuantono175]

Even when its fully combined, the carboard sword handle is still able to withstand the full weight, great craftsmanship, welldone mr

[@lil_miss_olivia7195]

The structural integrity is nuts, especially being out of cardboard. Also props for making 6 swords to combine rather than just making the fusion sword itself

[@dombagarut2188]

Its been 18 years since the movie came out.. and finally someone make the perfect replica for this sword..

[@Razzy-sr4oq]

No way it has been 18 years. No way.

[@azurelionheart]

Holy mackerel, I can't IMAGINE how tricky it was trying to ensure all of these individual layers would stay solid even when laid together in the fused form. Truly amazing!!

[@TheSuperiorRace]

The "main" sword may be made out of light wooden material in order to sustain the weight of the fully formed sword better... But for an ALL-CARDBOARD build, the craftsmanship is definitely god-tier... Nice work...

[@oioidositaoioioi]

職人のきめ細かい技術ほんと尊敬する

[@Legocatshouse]

Cloud certainly had his priorities straight after the main game. A six in one sword, and self repairing motorbike.

[@TheOneTruePastrav]

I have no idea why KZbin recommends us all stuff like this for no reason, but they should keep doing it.

[@Gav-bx3il]

That's a dope sword. And I know that's GOTTA be heavy all together

I'd buy it.

Watched final fantasy 7 a decade ago, and I never thought someone would bring this idea to real life.

The most accurate Buster Sword to date and it's made of cardboard

It's a different sword called fusion sword from advent children movie...Cloud stopped using the Buster sword and put it at the place where Zack died~~~~kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKilaGuMbKmme68

[@saltysgene584]

Imagine an Advent Children game with this sword would be insane swapping different sword and playstyle.

[@Jay-mx5ky]

Hoping for this for the next game! Spoiler Maybe Zack gets to keep the buster sword and Cloud switches to the fusion swords as they travel together.

[@Alecup06]

A advent children game is definitely gonna happen with this sword in it

The closest we got in any of the FF is Noctis.

[@shinigamishado3530]

Dang, Awesome work! I wish this video was around a few years ago, I made one out of cardboard for a college project, but it wasn't nearly as beautiful as this one!

[@vikeicezack]

At Comicon, a battle was about to commence between 6armed cosplayers & another 5 who didn't have any crops/weapons with their costume. Then comes a stranger carrying one colossal sword. He interrupts the struggle and tells them: "I can join you 5 and lend you a sword. If you need help?". The unarmed cosplayers were delighted, but at the same time confused, after one of them said: Thanks for offering your help, but you only got One Sword on your back. DanCreator smirks at them, as he hands the craftable swords after dismantling his Cloud's Fusion sword. Turns out the rivals were dumbstruck and opted in following the Master Cardboard Craftsman.

[@IffyJottere]

Moe: "And that's how, with a few minor adjustments, you can turn a regular sword into 6 swords!"

[@ee2024ee]

the way he stares at the glue at 00:15 reminds me of the way i stared at the swords in this video. great job man, awesome video
