Director of the remake, Tetsuya Nomura says that "It was necessary to reduce the Tiffa's chest. Because Tifa Primarily fights with her fists rather than a gun or a sword. Her a slimmer form appeared to be a legitimate decision for joining a part of the character's battling mechanics straightforwardly into her character structure."
The Famitsu also mention that the square Enix ethics department figured it out. According to the ethics department, Huge breast size may look "unnatural" during fighting scenes.
