Ok I see the tag. I understand they look too much alike. However I still gotta ask. Are we sure that's Rinoa and not Tifa? I only ask this because her top doesn't look blue to me.
I dont think its Rinoa. Rinoa had a brown streak on the right side of her bangs. Also the drawing of the females hair looks like Tifa's from Advent Children
That is most definitely Rinoa. Some people's fan art make her hair brown, and others do the black hair w/ light brown streaks. But, as you can see, and as stated above, the blue from her duster IS showing. And not to mention, Tifa's only a few inches below Squall's own height, he wouldn't have to lean down as much. [too much of an FF8 fan lol] And also, why would Squall kiss Tifa? No way, man. And yes, Tetsuya did say the resemblance between them was going to be a lot alike. Save for the overly large breasts.
