      I never played the OG FF7 nor the remake (waiting for all the games to come out), but I played FF CC on psp when I was a kid, so for me it is always Zack and Aerith. I imagine some people who played CC and not the og FF7 also felt that way if they go play the remake haha, maybe that why.

    • @slayer1156
      @slayer1156 3 месяца назад +3

      I think that it happens also because one of the metrics for the dates is shared playtime, with the synergy thing. Tifa is easier to play, you can output very good damage and stagger. Aerith is a howitzer but requires more attention.
      Also boobs.

    I felt a similar way when I got mine, I think it looks really good but it also felt extra fragile like I’d break it if I moved it too much. Especially in the arms which are really skinny so I guess it makes sense. Still love the line though and am really excited for Sephiroth next month.

Posing it just doesn't feel fluid, and at such a high price point, I expected better.

      All I could do was try and laugh it off while all the figures I planned to unbox kept piling up. 📦📦📦 I have enough stuff for 5 videos right now, still in their boxes, with 2 more on the way by the end of the week. 😂 With some luck I'll be able to record the Sephiroth Bring Arts tomorrow, and hoping to keep the ball rolling after that. 🏃‍♂

    Tifa's popularity is mostly a Western thing, while in Japan Aerith and Cloud is the star couple of FF7. They are paired together in every game, add, promo product etc. There are obvious reasons for this disparity, like bad translations, localization teams adding/completely rewriting lines to favor Tifa, and the popular "childhood friends to lovers" trope coloring everything. But in Remake and Rebirth, it's so obvious that Aerith and Cloud are romantically-coded. Tifa is more about them bonding over shared trauma and nostalgia for their childhoods. But Tifa and Cloud lacks the playful push-pull of Aerith and Cloud that causes Cloud to come out of his shell.
    Also, the main problem is some people are relying too much on Crisis Core. The creators have literally stated they stole bits and pieces from the OG's relationship to endear the connection for Zack. Never mind that OG Aerith states her and Zack were never that serious. Nevermind that both Aerith and Marlene both state in Rebirth that the one she loves is Cloud. Not Zack.
    And more people should read Traces of Two Pasts. Nojima wrote about all the ways in which Tifa and Cloud don’t work and don’t understand each other.

    • @corydonclavo
      @corydonclavo  3 месяца назад +1

      This all sounds very believable. I probably wouldn't say 7R is translated "badly", but the localization may have put some western flavor into it.

      @rifway22 3 месяца назад +1

      @@corydonclavo No problem. For the mistranslation part I was reffering to the OG 7. That's why most old fans prefer Tifa over Aerith. But I think new fans playing 7R with fresh eyes will definitely prefer Aerith as the better romantic choice.

    • @NordicWiseguy
      @NordicWiseguy 2 месяца назад +3

      100% correct.
      Tifa may be more popular in North America but we Europeans agree with Japan. FF7 is the story of Cloud and Aerith. Always has been and always will be.
      The game was literally marketed as "The love story that could never be"
      Nojima also called Cloud and Aerith koibito in on the way to a smile novel. Koibito literally means a lover. It can't get any clearer than that. Also that interlocking fingers gesture that Cloud and Aerith do in part 2 is called "Koibito tsunagi" or lovers tie.
      Then we have songs like Hollow and No promises to keep that are self explanatory. Part 2 also made Zack Cloud's wingman. Zack/Aerith is over.

      Nope. I played the OG and I finished it 😅 so personally I don't know how you can NOT ship Cloud with Tifa after the lifestream and under the highwind sequence. Aerith was very much the decoy love interest on cd1 but of course that's my opinion and everyone can have their own. But please don't blame Crisis Core. The OG is totally enough to ship Cloud and Tifa ❤

    • @NordicWiseguy
      @NordicWiseguy 2 месяца назад +5

      If it makes you feel better that is just North American thing. Japan and Europe are heavily Cloud/Aerith territories. Almost all devs favor Cloud/Aerith. Nojima, Nomura, Toriyama and even Kitase.
      Hollow and No promises to keep are intertwined together. Hollow is Cloud's song for Aerith and No promises to keep is Aerith's response to Cloud's Hollow.
      Unfortunately some crazed Tifa fans were giving death threats to Nojima so he had to back down a bit and he said that No promises to keep is for everyone Aerith cherishes but just a quick look into the lyrics proves that this song is about Cloud and Cloud alone.

      @corydonclavo  3 месяца назад +1

      Yeah, you're right! To make sure my collection didn't start to feel "messy", I put up a few boundaries. I have limited my collection to licensed figures. More specifically figures from OG and the Remake trilogy with a handful of figures in the gray area, like Dissidia and Smash. This is why you won't see unlicensed figures or anything from the compilation, at least for the time being. If I had more money and space, I would probably get all of it and display them seperately. 😁
