    Why are you asking so many questions? Didn't you see how much Sephiroth there was in this game? Wasn't that, like, SO HYPE? You guys like Sephiroth, right? And Butterfingers™ ! Don't forget delicious Butterfingers™ .

    Looks like all those "Seven Seconds in Aerith's Death" Scene" theories just got disproven?

    Also, I never really considered the implications of Cloud taking Yuffie on that date until now. But I do hope that option gets retained, because Yuffie is chicken soup for the soul.

    SPOILERS FFVII:R Chapter 18 Spoiler Discussion

    I'll be honest, I don't even remember who half those people are? :mon: Anyway, I was mostly referring to characters that the OG FF7 has popularized. Like, Zack is insanely popular and (surprise!) has been revived (in some fashion). Angeal is just Edgy-Zach from a prequel, so I assume he'll...

    Oh, I'd bet all three of them will either turn out to be alive or be revived by Singularity/Lifestream shenanigans before the end of this series. If Square Enix's handling of their post-FF7 continuity has taught me one thing over the years, it's that no popular character ever actually dies in...

    TBH, I've never found Sephiroth to be particularly nuanced, either? Like, he's your typical JRPG badass who gains a God Complex one day and decides it's his birthright to destroy the world. When he began to appear in other forms of media, like AC and KH2, I always hoped they'd expand upon his...

    Agree to disagree. I find the Sephiroth in this game to be a textbook example of the gradual flanderization Nomura/Nojima/SE have done to his character in various spinoff/KH appearances over the past twenty years. Sephiroth feels like a parody of himself at this point, and I don't think that's...

    SPOILERS FFVII:R Chapter 18 Spoiler Discussion

    It's interesting for me to see people defend this kind of storytelling, because personally I feel so much of the brilliance of late 20th century's most iconic and beloved villains-- not just Jaws, but also Friday the 13th, Alien, Terminator, Predator, Jurassic Park, and countless others-- is in...

    SPOILERS FFVII:R Chapter 18 Spoiler Discussion

    I cannot for the life of me wrap my head around Kitase's logic here. Is the shark in Jaws less effective as a villain just because "everybody knows" who the shark from Jaws is? Is it still not a "big deal" to a new viewer when the shark finally appears on screen just because the shark has...
