    Opening up with "Come back" and Cloud's soft "Aerith" is deadly

  • @blowfish1493

    what solidifies the relationship between Aerith and Cloud is not a dating scene or whatever because a lot of it is optional so it depends on the player who you want to ship Cloud with. What makes me sure that they are canon is the main story and the final scene where Cloud breaks down while holding Aerith, he loses the will to fight Sephiroth even though Sephiroth attacks him, he does't care he just want to protect her. only after Aerith wakes up and reassures him that she is okay does Cloud regain his composure and fight Sephiroth. I think Aerith is protecting Cloud from the grief of her death.

    • @thatstheway2429
      @thatstheway2429 2 месяца назад +6

      Agreed on that last point. Cloud is more unstable here than in the OG, and despair/grief is what pushes individuals into fully being lost and becoming robed figures.
      Cloud denying her fate is better than him grieving so much and losing himself to Sephiroth fully.

    So, here is my personal theory on what is going on with aerith at the end and where the future game might go. I know some people will disagree, but this is my theory.
    I believe Cloud is seeing aerith really there at the end. However, it's the aerith from the timeline/"world" that he created by blocking sephiroth's sword. There is evidence to support this. Like
    -sephiroth wanting cloud to help him defy destiny and telling cloud he had his blessing and he'd need a final push to join him in defying destiny and merging timelines,
    - how it had the new timeline rainbow efect when cloud blocked sephiroth's sword,
    - how aerith tells cloud "i saw what you did back there. Thanks,"
    - how the scene changed when cloud walked past the circle of white whispers surrounding aerith at the end(before walking by them, the group was around aerith. After walking through the whispers, nobody is around),
    - how the wind from the bronco was blowing aerith's hair,
    - how aerith was still standing there saying goodbye after cloud and the others had already flown away, and even more that i cant think of right now off the top of my head.
    The third game will involve zack trying to make cloud better so that he can save aerith. Not a lot of people seem to remember, but marlene told zack that cloud couldnt save her until hes better. This *has* to have payoff later on. Zack will help to make cloud better so that he can save the aerith from the timeline he made by blocking sephiroth's sword. Then, aerith will be permanently back(she's obviously coming back. She didn't even get her true final weapon in this game) and cloud and aerith will be reunited(theres so much foreshadowing for them being reunited).

      Yes, I'm also certain that Aerith is somehow alive. At least one aerith is. When Zack leaves Cloud in the battle, he falls into a flowerbed, with just one single flower still blooming.
      Also, when Aerith arrives to fight with cloud against Sephiroth, Sephiroth says "I underestimated you". He was clearly surprised, as he thought he killed all of the other aeriths in the other worlds.
      I also can't help but wonder that the flowerpin she got in the dream date, must be used as something to distinguish her from the real aerith or maybe some sort of dream aerith.
      Besides, both Hollow and NPTK hint a lot about finding each other again and not letting one other go.
      I can't wait for the next part of this game!

    • @dalegleneagles5072
      @dalegleneagles5072 2 месяца назад +7

      Two more smoking guns: we never actually see Sephiroth kill Aerith in the church, only meant for us to jump to conclusions (he’s not holding his sword there either). The other is that Tifa sees two scenarios at the altar - blood vs no blood.
      Aerith will “wake up” in the terrier world - they hit us over the head multiple times with the evolving health of the flowers and how they flourish as Aerith gets closer. And the church flowerbed is really the conduit for multiverse travel. “Till the day that we meet again, at our place…that you’ll come take my hand and never let me go”. They might be spelling it all out here. Zack helps rebuild Cloud in part because all of the OG lifestream scene points have arguably already been covered.

      @Thundercidder 2 месяца назад +7

      Also,this is my theory Cloud is the only one that cross the destiny crossroad this time rather than the end of remake,the whole team crossed.
      But to create a new fate or timeline,it's not enough just cross that whispers wall,also have to defeat Seph.
      When the team want to change fate in Remake,they have to defeat Seph to break that destiny,and this time,after Cloud block Speh's blade,the fate (or whispers) correct things back to Aerith's death scene,but this is a unstable situation,so Aerith kind of stuck in between the two timelines,also between live and dead,so they have to fight whispers Seph like last time to overcome the control of whispers,that's why Cloud told Aerith"I got this",and in the final fight, lifestream Aerith cross the timeline to help Cloud to totally defeat the Seph,“Let's finish this together”"I saw what you did back there,thank me later""This isn't over,thank me later",and in Japanese Aerith said"we have to win"
      After Cloud and Aerith finally defeat Seph,they make sure that new timeline where Aerith lives is stable,but since Cloud is the only one that cross the wall,he's also the only one can see another timeline and Aerith.
      I think in part 3,they will find way to merge all the timeline and make Cloud finally reunite with Aerith.

    The promise at the end doesn't make sense here's the direct translation from Japanese
    Cloud : Ā isoide sefirosu o sagashidashite taosu (I'll hurry up, find sephiroth and defeat him)
    Aerith : Kitto da yo (I'm sure of It)
    Cloud : Kitto da (For sure)
    Also you were wondering about what was cloud saying when he was getting flashbacks while holding Aerith, here's the Dev's words
    Interviewer: That's another thing I was curious about. In the original game, Cloud has that memorable line: "My fingertips are tingling. My mouth is dry. My eyes are burning!" However, it would seem those lines aren't spoken this time...
    Nojima: For my part, I felt that things like "tingling" and "burning" could be conveyed purely through the visual elements of the production, and that there was no need for them to be expressed through dialogue. I figured that even if the lines were absent, people familiar with the original game would be able to hear Cloud's voice clearly in their head.
    Toriyama: I can't say much about that sequence of scenes, as I want to encourage a variety of interpretations from those who see them. However, I will say that after consulting with Nomura, we settled on an approach where we inserted a sort of flashback scene where you can see Cloud shouting those lines from the original game.

    A few details that could help in understanding the ending:
    -In 30:29 you only see blood in his gloves when it shows the flashbacks to OG (where he rages at Sephiroth since in Rebirth he cries)
    -In 31:04 Aerith has lifestream particles around her, these particles aren’t seen latter in 1:51:02 when she wakes up, my interpretation is that the Aerith from earlier is the one that died as trying to protect Cloud mental health by projecting via lifestream while the latter is from the world he saved. There is no LS particles coming from this one and Red felt her so it can’t be Clouds imagination or a ghost Aerith.
    -33:24 Cloud is the only party member to not have LB, usually limit breaks charges when having strong emotions but since Cloud sees Aerith alive he doesn’t have any.
    -In 1:49:44 dead Aerith is on the side while the alive Aerith is in the same position as Cloud left her, also worth noticing how everyone disappears and there is the rainbow effect when Cloud gets near that Aerith.
    -In 1:52:29 the flashback to Aerith’s death is pink just like the one that woke Cloud up when he was being controlled by Sephiroth at the end of chapter 13 after this flashbacks he starts seeing Aerith.
    -In 1:58:15 it says “Nibelheim the next day” this will be important latter.
    -In 1:59:31 we have Cid asking about what Aerith was trying to do at the temple that’s because no one does, in the original no one in the party knows about her goal her and it becomes a plot point in disc 2 (the part of the game that’s left) however here Cloud knows because he knows she will return to the temple and talks about stopping Meteor with her prayer but Cloud doesn’t question this and like I said at this point in the Og game he shouldn’t know any of this, remember when I said “Nibelheim the next day” being important? That’s because from the moment Aerith and Cloud walked outside of the temple a whole day went happened which explains why Cloud knows more things than he should at this point of the game as Aerith could’ve explained to him why she needed to stay.
    -This one is important and I like that you noticed it since not many do, at 1:59:35 everyone reacts to the bronco explosion except Aerith (she doesn’t notice neither her dress moves while Caith cape does) you can see Aerith looking at everyone surprised by this, latter in 2:03:30 you can see Aerith reaction to the bronco turbines and she looks surprised (unlike the first time she notices and her dress moves, these movement remain this way for the rest of the ending) so things to notice here: when she’s with the party she didn’t react to the things around her as if she wasn’t part of that world but when she is around Cloud she reacts and notices said things.
    -Like you said the whole “do you promise” part doesn’t make sense with the song and the ending line but that’s is because they added it in localization as in the Japanese’s version this interaction is something along the lines of:
    *Cloud talks about defeating Sephiroth*
    Aerith: You can?
    Cloud: off course I can.
    There is no mention of promises in the Japanese version.
    -“No promises await at journeys”Nomura said it means that the ending is not decided but he also leaves it open for interpretation, an interesting detail is that Nojima when writing NPTK said that “That fate is its own “promise”, if you will, one she's been held captive by-one she wants to escape” meaning that "no promises await at journeys end" could also be interpreted as Aerith being free from her fate.

    Loveless, no promises to keep and hollow give me hope for Cloud and Aerith in part 3. the developers love making those 2 pookies yearn for each other. Part 3 we will be seeing hollow and no promises to keep play out. But for now our 2 lovebirds will be separated from each other, but their reunion will be the most anticipated and beautiful reunion in part 3.
    Cloud has Aerith hollow white materia(definitely something important) he also has the black materia(we know where he’s taking that).
    Zack being alive is an indicator that the devs want to end this trilogy differently than og ff7. We saw him interact with Cloud for a bit, we need more of it in part 3.
    The English localization 🤦 Cloud and Aerith didn’t make a promise in Japanese. They said: Cloud: I will find and defeat Sephiroth, Aerith: are you sure? Cloud: I’m sure of it. Aerith didn’t say “you promise” and Cloud didn’t say “promise”. 🤦

    Your playthrough is definitely the most interesting one i've seen. I didn't want to skip anything because you always had something interesting to say. Your analyzations of the relationships and feelings between all the characters, the theories, predictions.
    I also like how much you seem to value healthy relationships. It's something I can't help but find important even in fictional stories because of the impact unhealthy relationships have negatively effected my real life. I actually think it could help some people in real life just hearing you point out what's healthy and unhealthy in relationships.
    And it was so nice to see how much you cared for all the characters.
    It's also very clear how much you are into the whole story. There are a lot of people who aren't really.
    This was my first playthrough of yours I've watched. Can't wait to see you playthrough more games!

    Only just started, but something that always stood out to me in the crawling scene is how it feels similar to the beginning, him crawling in Nibelheim. Cloud desperately trying to reach someone but unable to.
    Not sure if it's a parallel the devs meant to be there, but I found it interesting nonetheless.

      It’s my GOTY as well. My biggest issue with the ending is the continuous fights. I thought the Lifeclinger fight on its own was great, but then it went on and kept throwing things at you (obviously purposely) as you kept fighting, and by the time you reached Sephiroth (and I died to him like 4 times before I finally beat him) it became for me about just finishing the fight then figuring out/listening to the lines and just ending it. On its own, the whole thing is great and once I had the time to dissect everything I loved it. But in the moment where I was first fighting and it kept going on, and on, and on, it just made me frustrated and asking “when is it going to end so I can watch the ending?!?”

    Well... a lot of questions, right?
    Well, you're right about the "promises" at the end... there's a lot of speculation about these last lines between CLoud and Aerith and if you look in Japanese the dialog is different and makes more sense. There's some controversy about some of the dialog in English... it's a bit different from the Japanese (original).
    A lot has happened in the last three hours of the game. Obviously I have some concerns because there seem to be too many questions to answer... I want to believe that Square knows what it's doing with this story.
    My faith is that... I hope to see Aerith in some form in the third game. Because one thing's for sure! Cloud managed to deflect Sephiroth's sword and that caused something !!! he changed fate !!! maybe he created a world where she's alive... that's what I hope.
    What's more, both games (remake and rebirth) have themes (songs) that give hope that things might be different now...
    and now a wish of mine !!! I need to see Aerith meet the real Cloud in the next game...after everything I've seen and how this story is being told, Cloud and Aerith need to have their moment, a moment like Tidus and Yuna had in FFX. I went into this trilogy with no preference between Tifa and Aerith... but as the story went on I always saw a special chemistry between Cloud and Aerith, as if they were two pieces that complemented each other... and I started rooting for them both because I think that's what the story is telling me. Obviously I'm a little worried that Square might do some fanservice with the hightwing scene between Cloud and Tifa... we both know that Tifa is very popular, but at this point I don't think there's any going back. After everything I've seen, if CLoud now suddenly turns to Tifa in the last game, I'll be tremendously disappointed because I think that's going against the story that's being told.

    • @SlashterpieceGaming

      Yeah! I heard about it recently, that the English translation was not very good, so that's why it doesn't make sense. At least others thought there was something wrong there as well 😹
      Same, I want to believe that they will answer everything. But they might write some novels on it, or have it present in the Ultimania etc.
      Same here!! Cloud and Aerith really made me root for them, I wasn't at all invested in any relationship but I was on the "other team" before when I wasn't really invested with the story or characters.
      I believe the kiss was enough for them, and that SE won't have the highwind scene because of it. There's no reason to, and it feels like this was Tifa's breaking point as well. She lost Aerith, but Cloud didn't. Cloud doesn't look like a great guy at all from her perspective, there's going to be more misunderstandings between them if anything. And I always wished for Tifa's purpose to be greater than a fan service character, and a support character whom is there mainly for the main protagonist. The character they've built up with the Remake, I'm hoping they don't reduce her own growth into Cloud's growth.

I have two points; either the kiss was pure fan service, which is terrible for me because even though it's optional, I believe that the optional content of a game shouldn't go against the main story being told, or else... Cloud thinks that Aerith still has feelings for Zack and tries to "find comfort" in Tifa.

      @francisco24slb1 Yeah, for Cloud it doesn't make sense, for Tifa it kind of does make sense. Since she leaned in for that kiss back in Gongaga, even telling us that "she got ahead of herself again" and Cloud is confused by it. In the end he does it because Tifa desires it.... it just wasn't a good vibe 😅 who wants a kiss from someone who doesn't naturally want to give one, you shouldn't have to point it out like that. But before that, Cloud asking about Aerith and her feelings for Zack- that made me 💀 I felt bad for Tifa, because it felt like he was acting out because of it. But going forward it doesn't make sense in the main story. Tifa deserves to be a person's number one, and I think her GS date showed something else.

    Cloud did save her but in another timeline. Here's the proof. 20:36 Cloud enters the portal to another timeline just like the one in Remake when the whole party entered another world where Midgar got destroyed in the battle. This time Cloud enters by himself though. 28:26 Notice the rainbow aura when Cloud's hands are freed, just like whenever Zack made a choice that created branches in the timeline. 28:58 That whole wall separating realities disappears after Cloud saves Aerith which is when the fuckery starts happening with her dying but not dying. In one reality she didn't, the one only Cloud entered. But in one reality she did die, and that's what everyone else sees.

    I have sooo much to say about the ending and I don't think it all fits into a youtube comment, haha.
    I was super bothered by the promise at the end too (and I still am). It gave me a lot of negative vibes. BUT! In the Japanese, they actually never promise. I think Aerith asks him "For sure?" and he says: "For sure." or something. Aaaand I watched an interview in which the devs talked about the meaning of No Promises to Keep and they said something along the lines of Aerith's fate and duty as a Cetra being sort of a "Promise" that she has to keep. Ever since I saw that, that one ending line of "No Promises await" became really positive to me. I'm hoping it means that in the end, Aerith will sort of be "freed" from her duties and fate (in a hopeful happy ending).
    And I'm soooo happy that you don't just think that Cloud is delulu. I've watched so many streamers who just went: "Yeah, she's dead, Cloud is crazy." And that theory makes me so sad because there is SOOOOO much in this ending that this theory disregards. It's so boring lol. Absolutely no way for Cloud to "hallucinate" a whole multiverse, for him to see a strange rift in the sky, for Zack to be talking about worlds merging and reuniting when Cloud isn't even there, Red feeling her at the end and so much more when the conclusion was just: "oh yeah, Cloud is even crazier now, he has hallucinations."
    I totally agree that Cloud might see two worlds. Apart from all the "obvious" reasons: in that scene at the lake when Cloud has that flashback, he actually always has the Buster Sword and not the sword that you equip. To me, that's a sign that that was a different world (maybe OG) and that Cloud's memories are sort of "merging" because of Sephiroth. It's the same with Aerith's actual deaths: In one, Cloud says the words that he said during OG too.
    The "And if I said I wasn't?" dialogue at the end killed me. It was one of my favourite scenes in Remake already. I died when she said that again. AND THEN THE CLOUD SMILE OMFG. That was the best Cloud smile ever man. I rewatched that so many times just to see Cloud smile (imagine if he actually was delulu lol. He's like the happiest he's ever been at the end).
    I personally love the ending and all the theorycrafting you can do with it. I've rewatche it like 30 times now and still find new details every now and then haha (oh, speaking of detail: Did you notice that Aerith is lying on her side first after the final battle when the others run to her, then she's suddenly lying on her back when Cloud approaches? -cough- different worlds -cough-).
    Aaaaand their final battle against Sephiroth and the handhold after that :')) I REALLY NEED PART 3 SO MUCH!
    I also have a theory for Tifa in part 3 if you are interested. I don't want to write a whole essay though haha.
    I really enjoyed this playthrough. Thanks for playing

      Boiling it down to Cloud is crazy would actually be veeeery lazy writing in my opinion 😹 like, let's do all this crazy stuff and then just have him be delulu so we don't have to explain anything. I don't believe for a second SE would do that.
      Yeah, my hands were hurting almost for a week because I was writing so much down on every single scene that I wanted to analyze 😹 now I just have to read it and make a video, but it's easier said than done. Takes so much time, and now I'm back to work 🤓
      Yes I did catch her lying differently! Theres so many theories that can be crafted from the ending I love it.

    The parallels between Cloud reaching for his mom in Nibelheim and Aerith in the Forbidden Forest hurt my soul💔
    I suspect that the whispers blocked their fall or transported them to safety🤔
    Maybe Aerith lied to the others about what happened with Sephiroth because Cloud needs all the support he can get right now and the last thing he needs is for the others to doubt him.
    I really like the little talks with the others on the way to the Forgotten Capital.
    Interesting, how only Nanaki and Cloud could see the whispers leading them...
    The Advent Children OST that plays when you reach the Forgotten Capital always hits me in the feels.
    To me, it seems like the whispers colors represent different connections.
    Black - Sephiroth
    Grey - the planet, fate
    White - Aerith
    It almoat seems like Cloud controlled the black whispers when they destroyed the wall of whispers. Only when he said Aerith's name did this happen.
    It is so sad, getting to hear Aerith's prayers. She loves the others so much...
    It seems like what happened to Aerith has something to do with the reunion of worlds. I really hope he saved her😭
    Square Enix, pls let them be happy🙏
    Atp I'm pretty much convinced that Jenovaroth killed Aerith in both the OG and Rebirth. In both games you immediately fight Jenova after Aerith's death.
    In Japanese, Cloud tells Aerith to wait for him instead of "I got this".
    Also, I need to mention how Cloud's face screams "I love you more than anything"..
    The fighting cutscene in the Jenova fight is so awesome and cool😎
    You joking about Cloud being busy stealing "Zack's girl" is actually on point. In Japanese, Zack tells Cloud that he kinda hates him a little😅
    I adore Zack & Cloud fighting together.
    Sephiroth saying it was easy for him to turn his back on SOLDIER is actually kinda understandable. To Shinra, he was nothing more than an experiment and a tool to be used. Sephiroth never joined SOLDIER willingly, unlike Zack. He never had a choice in the matter.
    The SOLDIER honor scene with Cloud & Zack is epic!
    I appreciate how Aerith helps Zack, even if she doesn't have romantic feelings for him anymore. It shows that she still cares for him and that he will always be an important person in her life🥺
    Aerith returning to fight Sephiroth with Cloud is easily one of the top 10 moments in the Final Fantasy series.
    It says a lot, when even Sephiroth admits to have underestimated you😮
    Aerith still trying to appeal to Sephiroth's humanity is beautiful. She doesn't see him as a monster, but as a human being. Like she said, forgiveness is the key and an important power. She clearly believes that Sephiroth can still be saved. And I trust her judgement.
    Lol, not Sephiroth flying away.
    Aerith & Cloud are such a power couple. And the intertwined fingers😍
    Man, the parallels between Barret & Myrna and Cloud & Aerith are killing me. Them cradling their lovers bodies and telling them to wake up. Not Barret putting on his sunglasses 🕶 when he cries. They really are there to cover up his emotions...
    Interestin, how Cloud's buster sword lies between Tifa & him. A metaphor for their emotional distance, perhaps?
    Man, poor Tifa. Babygirl just can't catch a break. She just lost her best friend and then Cloud is mentally fucked up😑
    Man, Glenn-Sephiroth really had Rufus acting up😶
    Seeing Rufus lose control of a situation like this is very unexpected.
    The colors of the weapons are interesting. Blue & pink.
    Who do they remind me of again?
    Seems like the black cloaked are heading towards the Northern Crater.
    Nanaki sensing Aerith is interesting. Too many people actually believe Cloud imagined her.
    Aww, the Remake callback is so cute🥰
    You can tell how sad Aerith is about not being able to join Cloud on his journey.
    That mistranslation at the end gave me whiplash😂
    In Japanese, Aerith just asks Cloud if he's sure and he answers that he is.
    Interesting how there is a black spot in the ending credits🤨

      Hahaha really?! Well it did sound like Zack meant that, thanks for pointing out the Japanese version 😸 Zack is such a champ tho, not even bitter that Aerith loves Cloud. That's a real man right there, he's still dedicated to help them regardless!
      I was sooo hyped up when I saw Cloud reuniting with both Zack and Aerith!! Loved it so much!
      Yeah, now after hand Myrna's death and Aerith's are similar when it comes to the body language of both Cloud and Barret. Aerith is such a kindhearted person, that she's even trying to reason with Sephiroth.
      The intertwined finger was PEAK!! How freaking romantic was that?!! In the main scenario no less!! 🙀❤️ Loooooved it.
      Tifa's face when she lost her bff 😭💔💔💔💔
      Thanks for sharing your thoughts it was a very nice read!

    Remake Aerith died, but the moment Cloud saw Sephiroth falling, his sword glow and with the rainbow around he created a world where Aerith survives in his world. Cloud i think can see Lifestream and alive Aerith in the same time which is why he is not bothered. Also the reason i see Aeriths Date in Gold Saucer as canon is because Cloud smiles a lot more after she made him clear she is over Zack and their last date, despite Cloud thinking she is acting weird, not knowing Sephiroth is breathing on her back, her confessing her love to him he understood very well, which is why he looks with big eyes at her.
    The final fight remember me on Link, Zelda and Ganondorf from so many Zelda games which i find it cool. x3
    In the OG it is said that only Aerith brings out Cloud to show his rare smile. Also Tifa in OG mentioned that Cloud changed, he was quite but after Aeriths death he became even more quiter as if he lost a part of himself. Nojima himself said that in Advent Children, because of Aerith its very difficult for Cloud and even without Geostigma, there is a slim chance him getting together with Tifa. Maybe if Denzel and Marlene helps out. He also said that Maybe with Aerith there would be a better chance.
    Also Nojima wrote in his book One way to smile which is i think after Dirge of Cerberus that Tifa asked him if he loves her. Cloud was "What?" Tifa changed to "Do you love Marlene" as if she thought he wasnt listening. Cloud agreed, he loves Marlene but dont know how to handle her. Then later she asked Cloud if she and Marlene arent enough(Sexist Tifa forgetting Denzel exist too. xD) and guess what, Cloud stays silent he dosent answer. It is clear that even tough it is 3 years since Aerith passed, while still living as ghost in his concious which also was confirmed in Advent Children and OG, that he didnt move on from Aerith he still loves her.
    In the Advent Children Credits that sadly was recently removed(Aerith scene to give the illusion she reunited with Zack in the Lifestream), Aerith was standing in the flower field which is very japanese. One Piece made that joke in Drum Island, Usopp and Zoro talked about a flower field and River which is for us, when we are close dying, we see a light. But in Japanese culture they see a flower field and a river. Aerith was standing in the middle of the flower fielt. Nojima or other said that Aerith was seeing Cloud, she felt loneliness, but then she smiled. Yes its a sad ending which is why we all hope that Cloud and Aerith can be happy and maybe Denzel can be Aerith and Clouds Biological son this time in a world where he isnt yet born?Aerith saying "Its like a secound home" is what she said in the Clouds Resolution scene, which means, she dosent really mean it. The ending "No promises awaits at the end of Journey" makes sense in Japanese. Because Aerith didnt say "You pomise" she encouraged him instead Cloud that he will do it, win over Sephiroth i think.

    After playing crisis core reunion remake, him building her flower carts, the hug after angeals death, their relationship and spending time together, him visiting between missions and she was writing him letters for 4 years which tseng saved.
    All for him to never see her for so long before being killed breaks me. He was alone most of the time and protected cloud until the end my personal favourite character of 7. Cissnei and tseng in crisis core were great too, she definitely liked Zack as well.

  • @matthewpropst5893
    @matthewpropst5893 2 месяца назад +1

    This is my take on the song "No Promises to Keep":
    If you compare the two interviews that are commonly cited about the song "no promises to keep" (between Nobuo Uematsu and Loren Allred) and the interview done on the square enix music youtube channel, it is clear that the song has elements of Aerith thinking of her relationship to everyone and her "promise," which has to do with fulfilling her role as the only cetra left. This, of course, went against her desires to remain with everyone else, and most especially, the one who impacted her life the most after the many years that have passed since Zack's death (the fact that cloud changed her life quite literally when they met on loveless street). This also clearly makes it a love song to Cloud, whom she met on worn cobblestones on loveless avenue in sector 8 and continues to reiterate such a theme centered around various "chance" moments that ultimately were fated to be. Thus, while it is clear that the creators wished to also show Aerith's relationship to all of her friends (Tifa, Yuffie, Barret, etc), former lover (zack) [mostly in the sense that she refers to a period of years before she met cloud, likely correlating also to her frame of mind of moving on from Zack], and current lover (cloud, as she is putting behind her the former love she had for Zack after 5 years) in defining particular moments, it is evident that they also do not deny the love song aspect about the song that speaks not only to everyone, but is undeniably mostly focused on cloud in the lyrics.
    Most of the lyrics of the song bear in mind specific instances in Aerith's life and its clear that we are seeing her heart and her love for everyone she has met, but it is also evident that the lyrics point to a specific love for Cloud that is undeniably meant to give off a romantic tone. So, I can understand why the creators in the interview on Square Enix's Music youtube channel wanted to predominantly focus on Aerith's relationship with everyone, but it is exactly her relationship with cloud that has also given her the ability to also connect with others associated with him, which, of course, involved falling for him and moving on from the flying years that passed by like tumbleweeds until she met Cloud. Thus, the beauty of the piece is that Aerith's life literally changed so much because of a chance (fated) encounter with Cloud not just because of developing romantic feelings for him but also because of the friends that she also makes by associating with him, which is why it is both a love song to Cloud (in a more intimate sense) and to everyone (in a more familial sense, "life is about the people that you meet along the way" kind of logic).

    Remember, Aerith really didn't have friends growing up, so her making friends with not just a potential lover but also others as well brought so much more richness into her life that she wanted to protect it but was also grieved by the fact that such a protection would lead ultimately to her death since her role as the last cetra led to such a path. Regardless, I am a clerith shipper, but I do want to also bring out the other nuances that the creators also wished to point out [as far as I can discern] as well since they are ultimately all tied to the main protagonist (cloud), which is also how Aerith's friendships are also tied to (by her being a part of Cloud's life and group). Of course, Aerith did indeed cherish Zack 5 years ago and still does in a different sense in the present, but her romantic feelings have clearly shifted from Zack to Cloud (but not in the sense that she loves Cloud because he acts somewhat like Zack, but instead for who he really is) and this song describes how this has happened alongside the friends that she made along this journey.
    Perhaps the rest of the lyrics of the song is played at the end as an expression of what has happened to her throughout her life and then what her hopes are for the day that Cloud finally finds her at their place once again.

    So many feelings, so many thoughts, so many questions. And so many tears. And some really awesome moments. Seeing Zack and Cloud together, and Zack impressed by Cloud taking charge. Like proud papa seeing how far his son has come. And when Aerith showing up for the final battle, still gives me the chills.
    The main questions are still the same. What is the nature of the connection between the original game and the remake? How they are linked? How many Aeriths are there and which ones we were seeing in the different moments? Why does Cloud see these flashbacks, and what are they exactly?
    I firmly believe that Cloud managed to stop Sephiroth, and created another world where Aerith is alive. There are too many things happening in the ending to explain it as simply Cloud's delusions.
    Even more, JRPG developers have no problem giving us emotionally devastating endings, but I don't remember them trolling their players. So, after so many hints about fighting fate, not letting go this time, meeting again - I don't see them saying "haha, we fooled you, Aerith is dead and Cloud sees her because he's insane". And Marlene saying to Zack that he needs to save Cloud so that Cloud can save Aerith. But Zack still didn't save Cloud, so I also believe that it will happen in the future.
    I am very curious to see your analysis of the ending and your theories 😊.
    Are you familiar with the game Zero Escape: Zero Time Dilemma? In this game there are multiple worlds and characters find a way to move their consciousnesses between these worlds.

    I was a late joiner to your videos--it was your Gongaga analysis video that drew me in. I really enjoyed your reactions and analysis as you played through! The ending broke me on my run too. I wasn't able to make sense of anything until I'd calmed down after a rewatch. I'm firmly in the "Aerith lives" camp afterwards. The rainbows felt like a huge giveaway, but even before that it looked like Sephiroth fused two worlds and pushed cloud into that one after the Sector 5 church. Then they start up again when Cloud blocks the sword and they fade out only when the perspective changes. The static flashes where Sephiroth did kill her usually mean Jenova AND the rainbows disappeared, but come right back when we snap back to Cloud and Aerith. Honestly, her passing out just feels like a follow-up from her getting really weak when using her Cetra abilities in the Temple of the Ancients. After the fights the perspective is from Tifa's point of view and the rainbows are gone, though she seems to have static flashes of both. But as soon as Cloud is back so are the rainbows. And with the "dying world" cracks it seems like Cloud is halfway in a world where Aerith lives (which isn't supposed to happen hence the broken sky) and halfway in a timeline similar to the OG. Looking forward to your next analysis videos and after that I'll be back for Part 3 for sure.

    It’s fun to speculate the ending and love hearing everyone’s thoughts.
    Ultimately FF7 has been about dealing with love, sorrow and death. I’m assuming Sephiroth is acting as Aerith to trick cloud further pushing his diminishing mental state. Which will make a more triumphant return!? Hopefully?
    Still think Aerith can act from the livestream but if “worlds have merged”, then this is the only timeline left.
    Can’t wait to see part 3 and figure what actually happened. Thanks again for the amazing play through. 😊

    First just want to say that I love the way you talk😊
    Also my take on the “rift” scene after fighting the white whispers. When Cloud walked through the rift that everyone else held open, he went into a reality where Aerith was saved thus leaving everyone else in the reality where Aerith dies. This is why he can see her when no one else can. This same reality may be one where Zack is alive and made Cloud better hence how he fought with Zack against Sephiroth.

    • @donzirocno
      @donzirocno 15 дней назад

      Also when Sephiroth said “A confluence of worlds” The word confluence means the junction of two rivers, especially rivers of approximately equal width.
      So this is the junction of two worlds with approximately equal realities. One where Aerith lives and one where she dies.

    Here are my top 5 wishlist in Part 3 ending :
    1st : Cloud and Aerith reunite to have happily ever after together
    2nd : Aerith and Tifa reunite again as BFF
    3rd : Zack visit his parent to see him alive and date Cissine plus he become friend with Aerith
    4th : Barret reunite with Marlene in their home
    5th : Vincent and Cid probably cheer and drink wine together , don't you think ???
    Tifa lost Aerith like crazy heartbroken as BFF
    Yuffie lost Sonon and lost Aerith as friend
    Red lost Aerith as friend
    Barret lost Aerith as friend after he lost his wife
    Cid and Vincent are not much but they need more time to know her better unless Aerith appear more screen time in part 3 with them
    your commentary said if it in Cloud's head, he summon up Aerith.. ummm maybe clear materia could allow him to see Aerith only or Aerith allow him to see her only because Aerith love him so much in her feeling

    if the credits show aerith as rosa that means she is the canon route? 🤔
    my theory for part 3 is that zack is in a world in where aerith is alive (because flower in the church seems fine) and maybe reunite? and the story will be mostly the same until the reunion which i think will merge all the world into one and be all in the same plane (zack and aerith able to join cloud ?),i also think the "under the highwind" will be the next affinity scene so it won't be only tifa but with barret or vincent etc

    Ff7r "multiverse" is different, not like the MCU multiverse or anything like that, the dev has confirmed that, and it's called a "world" not a "timeline". so I think the aerith that helps cloud defeat sephiroth at the end of the story is lifestream aerith (her consciousness), reminds me of the aerith that talks to cloud in advent children. And I think the aerith at the end of the fight with sephiroth (the scene in the lake) is not the real aerith(perhaps its jenova manipulation), depending on the shooting angle, music choice, which looks scary and mysterious.

    I found your channel by chance while scrolling through the RUclips home page and really enjoyed your analysis of the gongaga scene, which made me start following your work, and I really enjoyed your style, a very charismatic, intelligent and with an enviable ability to capture even the smallest details, not to mention that you are very cute. Keep going and you'll go far, congratulations on the work.
    Seeing Cloud and Zack fighting side by side made me think about how strong Cloud is, he had no training, no one to teach him how to fight and yet his strength and power is equivalent to or even surpasses Zack's power, who had all the mentoring and training not only from Angeal but also the basic training of every soldier.
    I keep thinking how powerful Cloud could be if he had had a master who trained him and taught him how to control this power, just like Zack had.
    I may be getting ahead of myself but I think he would be a monster because he's so strong.
    Anyway, just a delusion I had here.

      @@SlashterpieceGaming For me, the 3rd game will be perfect if that happens, because we had so little of their relationship that it gives the feeling that something is missing.
      Besides, I have a slight impression that these two together would bring a vibe like Rude and Reno, Cloud being more calm and reserved and Zack being more imperative and excited, and always watching each other's backs in fights. Apart from the emotional support they would have for each other.

    The scenes before @1:50:09 is the main timeline of FF7 Rebirth where Aerith is dead. Cloud actually saved her but Sephiroth used his power to changed the fate and killed her. However the scene @1:50:10 is a different timeline. Lots of people missed the detail but as Cloud is walking, a white whisperer passed by, which indicates a shift to a different timeline. And the party is not around except for Cloud and Aerith. Aerith is ALIVE in this different timeline. After this, the game goes back to original FF7 Rebirth timeline where everyone is grieving her death except Cloud.

Aerith could somehow to have black materia and swap to clear materia could be that way 🤔🤔🤔

    30:18 I do wanna point out that Cloud’s voice actor did apparently recorded grieving dialogs for this moment! Yeah it’s not just a cut animated mouth sequence. In fact they were buzzing about good his crying performance was! But they deliberately cut out what he was saying to save it for part 3. So with that in mind I really can’t wait to see how they recap this moment in greater clearer depth. If they do what I think they are setting up in the first place, it’s gonna be really chilling. Literally to remind players this is a sucky loss. And you will feel that weight. :p

    No more Rebirth makes me sad, but I'm interested in the next game you decide to pick up!
    The character writing, the story, music, additions,direction-all of it pitch perfect-this is what it means to be a true RPG, and this deserves GOTY for sure.
    I didn't comment on the last video because I watched that one and this one together and grabbed snacks! The church scene with Aerith when she pushes Cloud and the Gongaga bedroom scene with Tifa are the best directed scenes in the game. They are just beautiful. The happiness of thinking we finally saved Aerith only for her to be snatched away again hurts for sure. I wasn't expecting that turn of events to make Cloud look a bit unstable near the end; he clearly needs help. Disregarding ships, I've always seen Aerith as a sort of mother figure that Cloud needed since Claudia is dead. She's always been guiding him in a specific way; she's very forward, which takes Cloud by surprise, but she's also very tender and doesn't tackle his mental state; rather, she does what she thinks is best, which is suggesting he take care of it for himself and encouraging him to remember who he truly is. She is a special person, not just in his life but for the entire party.

    That's another reason why I'm excited for Tifa's next game. Her development is the most intriguing because it's her learning to become less reserved and more forward, similar to Aerith. What Aerith could not do in her short time, Tifa will rise up and take on, and she will carry that burden with Cloud.
    We have theories that part 3 could start with Rocket Town, but I'm curious where you think part 3 could start.
    Overall amazing 10/10 game I'm happy to see different opinions from the general public in my feed!

    2:04:49
    Also, yes, that's because there was no promise made at the end. For some reason, SENA loves to do this weird thing with their translation and change subtext. In JP Aerith told Cloud, "I know you will beat him," rather than her making a promise, which kind of defeats the purpose of the song. (I wish they found a way to adapt the JP lines better in English for a lot of Rebirth scenes, but oh well.)

      I'm going to love Tifa's growth in the third game!!! I have really high expectations now after Rebirth. And I feel like they've told us throughout the game that there's going to be something that we were not expecting in the 3rd game. Omg I'm so excited!!!
      You're not wrong, Claudia and Aerith are very similar to one another. And the towns ppl of Nibelheim didn't really like Claudia because she was so free spirited and didn't fit their mold before. I really love the playfulness of Aerith, it's soo refreshing. I loved that about Tifa as well during the frog quest when she pushed Cloud! 😸 She was so genuinely happy.
      Yeah, the ending dialogue and text really contradicted the song I was like ?????? 😸????? But I got told this a few days ago, that it was a translation error. And that the French, German and Spanish ones were the only correctly translated ones.

That final battle series start with the Aerith theme never fails to have that emotional impact- its sad, but there is that resolve that comes up that makes you dig in your heels and throw everything you got at Jenova and Sephiroth.
    Really have that hope for part 3. We can defy fate, we can find a better ending. Aerith's doing her part, now its up to the rest of the party, and as long as their hearts still beat and their lungs still draw breath, I think they will keep trying for that victory.

    Hey, Slashterpiece, it was very fun watching your play-through. I look forward to your future analysis. I just wanted to drop in and note that there are certain discrepancies in regards to the NA localization vs. the Jpn version. I can't recall exactly what was said between Aerith and Cloud at the end, though I'm pretty certain they didn't make a promise here in this scene. Once you decide to revisit FF7, I absolutely recommend you check out the FF7 Rebirth Ultimania, as there is a lot of very interesting notes and developer insights into the events of Rebirth.

    ""I've never been so proud
    The man you've become..
    Woman must be hounding you day and night.
    You know, there's all kinds of temptations in the big city.

    That's the perfect type for you, i'd say"
    In my heart, I know those words paint a flawless picture of Aerith-a truth so evident, it leaves no room for doubt. Cloud and Aerith, their destinies intertwined as if crafted by the stars themselves. Yet, the question remains-whether they can truly be together lingers unanswered, shrouded in the heavy mist of fate

    I really enjoyed watching your gameplay throughout the game.
    I also enjoyed watching the video all the analysis of the different scenes . It's really nice to see someone who really understands the characters in this game, by the way I just love the interaction between Cloud and Aerith, they dynamic is so much cute and fun to see.
    Here cames my theory about the remakes series
    The concept here that they are using in the remake is much more metaphysical and spiritual and related to the lifestream, rather than timeline in the Marvel sense. I would say that the worlds that they are showing us are inside the lifestream and are made of memories, experiences from all the people who died. These worlds even if they are made of memories can have a physical representation. That's why Sephiroth call it son's of Gaia because literally are a worlds that live inside the planet.
    If that is true the devs are just expanding the concept of the lifestream and touching one of the main themes of the game such as life and death from a more philosophical point of view. But it's not the first time that they used this concept in FF series it's the same that they use in FFX don't wanna spoil anything but for those who have play it should know what I am talking about.
    This also explain what is the materia like Red said in costa del sol, they are made of memories, experiences ... and also why they didn't just resurrect Zack and Biggs in another "timeline" they are currently living in the lifestream.
    That would also explain the date dream why Aerith at the very end of the date can manipule the element of the church.
    Okey, how then why are we able to see the other world in the end ? Just very simple because Sephiroth summon it with the materia he get on the ancient temple, which is not the black Materia like Aerith said before.
    There are a few more things that am certain about the third part, honestly It's going to be heartbreaking to watch when :
    SPOILER from the OG
    - Sephiroth reveals the truth about the Cloud identity the devs also are going to show us the lake scene which is one of the most iconic in the FF series. Why do i think that?
    Because of the way the make the Aerith's death scene, I mean why did they make the ending so blur and confusing? they are basically trying to represent to us, the player, the state of denial's in Cloud head.
    - Also I am pretty sure that when the group comes again to cosmo Canon, the professor are going to explain what I have just said.
    END OF SPOILERS
    Well that are my theory's about this masterpiece.

  • @nilsmerlinlinde
    @nilsmerlinlinde 2 месяца назад

    FF7 Remake was my first experience with FF7 and it was also my second FF Game ever after FF13. I never played the Original before. I also played Crisis Core Reunion and FF7 Rebirth. I liked all of them so seeing you playing those games was really nice. I tried to play the Original FF7 as well before Rebirth came out but I really got lost on the Map so often and the gameplay wasn’t mine that I stopped playing it. But I really liked the story so maybe I will watch some day another’s Playthrough of it.
    As for the Story: I don’t think that Aerith is really dead tho. They already confirmed like multiple worlds, so as how I understood is that in one World she probably died just like in the OG and in the other she was saved by Cloud. Because in this game every time when someone makes a choice a new World gets created with the Rainbow Effect. This happened because in the Remake we destroyed the Arbiter of Fate and as Aerith explained in the Remake that would change everything. What I am still wondering about is if the Whispers in the Remake where the once from the Planet/Fate or if they were already with Sephiroth because in the Remake we only had the Black Whispers that are of course with Sephiroth as said in this game. And the White Whispers I think are the Aerith Ones. The question is where the Whispers splitted into Black and White Ones after we defeated the Arbiter of Fate in Remake or where the Black Whispers in Remake already with Sephiroth because that could explain why he wanted us to beat him in the Remake so the White Materia could be made empty. Maybe that way also the White Whispers were born I don’t know. But from my understanding Sephiroth and Aerith both try to manipulate fate.
    As for Cloud my theory is that he is the only one who can the see the Alternate Aerith that she got saved because he was the only one that grossed the barrier of the Whispers this time and was also the only one who was in Aerith‘s Dream World there and had the Alternate Worlds experience. Aerith could also be just the Livestream One or just Cloud‘s Imagination but I don’t think that’s true because Red XIII/Nanaki could also sense her in the end. So I am pretty sure we will see Aerith again in Part 3! Just how tho is the Question?

  • @JadenXI
    @JadenXI 2 месяца назад

    Red XIII "sensing" Aerith is a red herring. In the original game the two people Jenova tricks in the main party are Red XIII and Cloud. Jenova/Sephiroth are taking on the appearance of Aerith in his mind so they can mess with Cloud super hard in the next game. Notice how Aerith at the end is all like "you promise?" when Cloud says he's going to get Sephiroth, when earlier the real Aerith told him to forget Sephiroth and focus on himself.
    In the original game Cloud sees Aerith die and accepts it, but in Rebirth, Sephiroth is messing with him way more and now Cloud is even more of a puppet than originally.

  • @patriotsfan122480
    @patriotsfan122480 2 месяца назад

    As many have already mentioned, yeah the ending lines (like with Remake) don’t match up with the Japanese translation. However, like with Remake’s ending, I think they’ll probably go back and change it when part 3 drops.
    This was always, to me, meant to be Aerith’s game. Obviously the whole cast is important and they did a great job with all of their characters, but when they teased when this part would end, it made it even more important to me that it did justice for Aerith and I think ultimately it did. Also, while Cloud can see the rift at the end, I feel like Aerith has been seeing it since the end of Remake. She would keep looking up at the sky, asking where Midgar was, and from the pocket dimension we see the rift over Midgar. Now that Cloud has been there, that’s one of the reasons I believe he can now see it at the end too. The other being, he’s now traveled the Lifestream just as Aerith and Sephiroth have.
    I do believe Aerith is alive on a different world, but not necessarily the Remake world. I believe the devs stated in the Ultimania that she stopped Sephiroth from merging worlds and that the rifts in the sky are supposed to be seen as a mark of the world ending soon. Don’t quote me on that though, I’m trying to remember off the top of my head 😂
    Love hearing all your theories and let that ending video be as long as it takes! I look forward to hearing your thoughts after you’ve gone through everything (which will take a TON of rewatches 😂).

They let him think that he was the problem, for choosing the path of "Soldier".

      Thank you for following me on this journey! It's been a blast 😸🎉
      The scene with Aerith has me in shambles! I was feeling so down... But the ending is very hopeful!! As long as she is alive in a world, I will never lose hope 🌟

    What an incredible journey this game was! Hands down one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had. If this doesn't win goty there's something wrong with the world... 😅
    I will never not be mesmerized by the ending. The cinematography in the altar scene is amazing! Just pure perfection 💖 the way Cloud cries and then smiles in relief at Aerith melts my heart. We have literally never seen him like this 😭 the fighting sequences drag a bit too long imo but the final fight against Sephiroth with the power couple is just chef's kiss 👌 the reference to AC when they are back to back is so sweet. And they interlock fingers AGAIN! Canon couple right there 🥰
    I don't know how we are supposed to wait for part 3.. if it releases in 2027 it would be perfect because it's ff7's 30th anniversary! But that means I will turn 30 myself too and I don't really wanna think about that 😹 regardless can't wait to see what happens!

    I want to thank you for an amazing entertaining journey!
    You are an amazing lets player and even tolarate people like me blabbering in the comments😂
    I hope aerith has a big part in the third game. I wish there will not be some multiverse "aerith is now alive and back" stuff because it woud diminish the death of her. If they want aerith alive cloud shoud have saved her imho. I still want her to have a big part. I personally dont like multiverse stuff because nothing has a real consequence and big story beats lose their meaning. Just my 2 cents.
    For the ending i think lifestream aerith is really there and at the same time cloud cant accept her death thats why we dont see the burial scene or hear what he says do aerith when he holds her in his arms. cody christian reavealed in his interview they already have the voicelines from that scene where he holds her. Probably we will see it when cloud gets his lifestream moment. Dont get me wrong there is much stuff we dont really know and there is a lot of stuff happening thats not just cloud lost it. There is stuff we have no clou about and im carefull optimistic they do a good job with it.
    Thank you so much for everything and i will be happy to check more stuff out from you!

      Thank you so much for your kind words! And don't stop blabbering, I love discussing 😸 you've been nothing but fun to talk to!
      Honestly, I'm not very good at this multiverse/worlds stuff, but I do have some theories of my own that I've written down. Will do a video of it in the future, when I get the time to revise everything I wrote so I can just create a video with it 😸 but reading the comments I've had a lot of the same takes as a few.
      I'm all for surprises! And believe SE will do the best decision that they can make, if that is multiple endings- so be it 😸

    OMG, I think you're right. What if cloud died in the fall and Aerith had to do aomething to bring him back? Maybe that dead Cloud is the one Zack meets in the white space? Is that maybe why Zack, Cloud and Sephiroth had to fight in the Edge of creation, because technically the 3 of them are dead? 😭 Anyways, Thank you so much for your play through, I'm so happy I found your channel. Now when that third part comes I'll spend the entire game looking around for Aerith's smoke sign 🥰

      This is what I love about everything that happened the last chapters, there's a lot of possibilities, a lot of interesting theories that can be created! And I think we'll probably have more theories in a year, 2 or even 3! Love it. I rather not be able to predict what happens 😹
      It has been a blast, and receiving so many interesting comments and having all these amazing people in my comments has been a delight! ❤️ Give yourself a hug 🌸

    wow this was one hell of a game and we’re not done yet until the third one comes out! this is obviously my GOTY (no bias). tho some are didn’t like it because its obviously confusing 😂 but hey thats what the devs intended, to leave us hanging and theorize whats gonna happen next. i really laughed when you said “yeah hes busy stealing your girl” 😂😂😂. I cant wait for the third and final installmen in this trilogy. 2027/2028 please come fast LOL
