Cid Highwind Character Information

Cid Highwind is a former mechanical scientist with an unfulfilled dream of sending a rocket into space. He is tough-sounding and short-tempered, yet he is still a warm-hearted old pilot who hasn’t forgotten his dreams. He believes that someday he will fly to the ends of the universe. With the use of his handmade spear and knowledge of machines, he throws himself into any attack regardless of the danger. There’s no better pilot by the air or sea.

Cid Highwind is voiced by Kazuhiro Yamaji (JP) and Chris Edgerly (EN)
