    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    I hope the CAs making the claim that Zack is a Gary Stu and those that say he's now a Clerith shipper are different people. Usually, the Gary Stu gets all the gals, especially the main love interest, and has everyone singing their praises, either made up or exaggerated. :mon:

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    No offense meant, but how can anything be semi-canon? ^^; Far as I understand it, something is either canon or not, no? Sure, there's implied and explicit, but even that takes from canon, too. Reminds me of Twilight -- Aro saying Bella was half-mortal and half-immortal, which just...makes no...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    I used to mind the idea that Cloud might have been attracted to Aerith myself. But well, now, I'm of the mind that that's the beauty of love triangles and why it's such a popular thing. It can be really heartwarming that even when other, sometimes more appealing and/or exciting, option(s) is...

    That does sound like the case, but it's...a little sad to believe. The game had me thinking C/A was also endgame at the start, but here I am. Glad to know you're enjoying Rebirth! Your old blogs gave me a lot of what I appreciated about Aerith and a new way of looking at how Cloud and Aerith...

    By any chance, are you Sakura from Tumblr (or magicalalchemist, if I'm remembering the name right). If so, I used to follow your posts there regularly! :D

    I know this is probably moot, but...did they not see what Yuna does afterwards? You know, wipe her mouth off in disgust? FFX is one of my faves and that's just...not something it deserves! :doh:

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    I would like to know what they see in Clerith enough that they fight tooth and nail for it to be canon. Though, just to pitch in, I think I've said several pages back that I'm not exactly a Cloti and more a Tifa fan. I just think Cloti feels more natural with the way the story went. Even...

    I would like to know what they're on. Sounds like the good stuff because I really don't know how they end up with those conclusions. :mon:

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    It's really weirdly worded, but I always took that as her missing Midgar's plate because at least then she doesn't see the actual sky that always took the people she loved from her.

    Can we really not have this version in ENG, too? That Aerith sounds like she's fun to be around, even if she might still be too touchy-feely and hyper for me.

    Re: translation - I sure hope so. Better late than never xD Re: the pic - Thanks :D

    You know... I'm starting to see why there's vitriol over the translation. If that's correct, in the JP at least, Aerith comes off much better.

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    I'm far from being the biggest Aerith fan (or a fan of her at all), but I agree with what you said. I liked where I thought Remake was going with her, but now I'm just confused with trying to sort out what I think are the devs' intentions with her portrayal and the fact that I personally find...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    The marketing is one thing, but I hope that doesn't affect the story. .hack G.U. has an implied romance sorta, and it remains unresolved because of Alkaid's fans (and unlike with Aerith, I really like Alkaid). Granted, the romance there isn't integral to the plot, so it doesn't matter, but...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    I really love this because it’s super sweet of him to wait for Tifa to essentially say "yes" before pulling her in for a hug and kiss her. The romantic sap in me just jumped for joy throughout that.:joy:

    Ehhhh... Not all Asian dramas save the kiss for the very literal end. Hell, I've seen anime pull off a kiss between the romantic leads really early.

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    The funny thing is, off the top of my head, during the Lifestream sequence, when Cloud goes face to face with Sephiroth, he says something like, "Mom... Tifa... my town... Give it back." Cloud is a real softie. Edit to add: The insistence on changing Cloud's core character to push a shipping...

    And even themes aside, it serves as a call back to what started Cloud's entire arc, he and Tifa falling off a bridge 'cause she was hoping the local legend of meeting the dead past the mountain is true. ...That line also confused me when I first played it haha.

    I just watched this scene, and honestly, if the LTD wasn't such a big deal, this scene is 100% beautiful. I like the scene, actually. We need more portrayals of people of the opposite gender providing comfort to one another without romanticizing it.
