I love how Sephiroth was actually smart in Advent Children and didn’t just stand there and block or take the hit, rather he took advantage of the situation and stabbed Cloud.
My thought was that at that point, due to his previous impalement, he was heavily weakened and felt he would be in danger without his sword, so he tried to hold onto it and regain control of the situation until it was too late.
tbh, i still say the og version of that scene holds up better. sephiroth is in shock as he gets lifted up by a nobody grunt and it happens in 5 seconds too. final order and the crisis version are stupid
@@JimRaynorRaider Final order and crisis core show more detail and emotion though beyond low poly cutscenes and text boxes. Don't dis the two because they do something different.
Well, at least we have some context for how Cloud was able to lift him. Turns out that Seph-dog wasn’t all that heavy to begin with if Smash is any indication.
It could have just held them by there shirts like Link for Example Sephiroth could be Holding Link by his shoulder Sleeve and For Characters who don’t wear clothes like Donkey Kong or Kirby Sephiroth could just be Holding them up on the sword
I don't think he missed. Either it was a warning like "Do not mess with me" or felt Mario was insignificant enough for the Masamune to even stab him. After all, the other fighters are just getting in the way, Cloud is the true target.
@@angelsartandgaming nah it’s cause seph is a BUM. Look at Ridley he succeeded in killing in his trailer seph is megagay and can only kill jobbers. Mario and bayo both clap those cheeks after cloud is done gaping it
One thing I love about game logic. Someone can be stabbed straight through the chest, where there are lots of vital organs, and the blade will come out the other side of their body, yet it won't be enough to instantly kill them.
I was reading some things about Sephiroth's development and it said that the developers of his design in ADC wanted to see Sephiroth with a sense of "alure and charm" and a face you will "never see in real life". I think that made this the core standard for Sephiroth design ever since... They improved his face in the Remake and Sephiroth does looks like someone so different from the main world and story of FF VII. He have some presence of an Angel and a Demon at the same time... he's avery intimidating character.
@@agentdon1760 Yep! It was included in the home release of the DVD special edition of the original Advent Children (this edition was in a box and had the script for Advent Children). Sadly the Blu-Ray of Advent Children Complete doesn't include it. It's not considered canon though as some of the scenes within the OVA contradict both FFVII and Crisis Core, but it's a fun watch. RUclips probably has it somewhere to watch.
Sephiroth stabbed her in a cutscene he didn't dare take her in a battle sequence especially will all these "how overpowered can you get before" guys about.
@Luke Dias It's very clear you are talking out of your ass. If you are this ignorant then it's obvious that you know nothing about Final Fantasy. Aerith is a fragile physically weak little girl. Cloud is a genetically enhanced Super Soldier with Alien Cells inside him which increases his vitality, strength and durability among other things. It's perfectly logical why Aerith dies to one stab and Cloud survives several stabs.
0:32 "whoops a blonde fellow with a comically large sword threw me after I impaled him. I will make sure to not under-estimate my opponent's strength next time when I respawn in the next game so I do not end up getting comically launched into a wall and into a weird laser pit"
More like his iconic stabbings of Cloud and Mario, because that's all I see. His down-air actually is tied to the most iconic one of a local flower shop owner.
Sephiroth be like "how many times do I have to impale this chocobo-haired twink for him to actually die... oh no he yeeted me again, by Jenova this can't be happening"
In advent children he stopped the omnislash because he's seen it once already he knows how to counter it but he had no idea how to counter versions 5 and 6
In the og ff7 it looks like a stab to the gut more than the chest, which is a lot more survivable. But then again the sword moves a lot due to how the models are animated, it looks like it goes in his pelvis at one point.
Ok I know sephiroth was broken on release and was eventually nerfed bc of it but imagine that being sephiroths grab in smash bros… it wouldn’t change a thing💀
I love how Sephiroth was actually smart in Advent Children and didn’t just stand there and block or take the hit, rather he took advantage of the situation and stabbed Cloud.
Rated M for mature
He was always toying with cloud, it's like he wanted cloud to get stronger, he wanted a challenge.
The masamune was specifically designed to lift up wannabe heroes by their rib cage
DDDDIIIIIIIIOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

His grab in Smash should've been this
Longest grab in game lol
The marth grab
No
What would've been his pummel?
@@BeretBay He shakes the sword and causes internal bleeding
For Mario it wasn't a stab but more like...a warning to not mess with him.

Swordsman don't let go of their swords until they die...or is that just Samurai?

They had to balance him somehow. Weight in smash is for balancing purposes after all. Not for legitimacy.

*Cloud literally picking up Sephiroth whilst impaled*
"O H"
“Sakurai lets make his iconic stab his grab throw”
Sakurai: I dont think all fighters wear overalls
But at least it’s his forward air
It could have just held them by there shirts like Link for Example Sephiroth could be Holding Link by his shoulder Sleeve and For Characters who don’t wear clothes like Donkey Kong or Kirby Sephiroth could just be Holding them up on the sword
I mean, Snakes grab is grabbing them by the throat and the attack is to break their neck repeatedly
After all that practice he misses Mario
I don't think he missed. Either it was a warning like "Do not mess with me" or felt Mario was insignificant enough for the Masamune to even stab him. After all, the other fighters are just getting in the way, Cloud is the true target.

I mean it wouldn't INSTANTLY kill you irl either, but good luke lifting that person with the sword still in lol
Jenova Cells son, they react to physical trauma!
And without any smear of blood whatsoever.

Very memorable. They made someone edgier than cloud so it was bound to be striking

Yeah, it honestly did give me an "Anime Abridged" feel given the quality of it. That and the lack of George Newbern's amazing voice.
Cloud: let Mario go!
So much stabbing... and so much death....
Sephiroth is a true villain. SOMEBODY GIVE THIS MAN AN AWARD!!
Aerith: *Instantly dies after one stab*
Cloud: *Takes numerous stabs and still manages to fight on*

I was waiting for this compilation thank you 👍
the way sephiroth just gets yeeted after 10 seconds of shaking his sword in the og will never not be funny
Sephiroth literally grinding Clouds guts
Cloud: yeet
Mario wasn't protected by his overalls, but by the E rating
He missed Mario because he's smaller than Cloud
Cloud wasn’t any larger when he was laying on the ground.
Nope it eas because of child friendly nintendo
Man Ridley gets to kill Mario and Mega Man but Seph gets to kill no one
People getting stabbed in real life: dies
Cloud getting stabbed: “Tis but a scratch.”
Jenova Cells and Mako come in very handy.
For his neutral special he wields you on the end of a long blade
1:18 sephiroths up air should’ve been this
Sephiroth: stabbing is my specialty
The thumbnail be like:
One of them is not like the others
I stabbed myself in both stomach and chest to see how this feels and it feels awesome you should try it
The arm on this man
Cloud always got barbequed since 1997
Sephiroth : I won't a barbecue

Sephiroth is finding a new selfie stick
I wonder how Sepiroth stab Cloud in 7 Remake is gonna be look like
Full of despair....
i wonder if they'll even have the flashback in remake, given that things are kinda diverging...
I wonder if there is gonna be atleast blood. All the deaths in the remake Part 1 were kinda mild

I didn't know that there was a Final Fantasy Anime
Me neither
I think it was just a short. Probably related to a compilation release at the time.
@@ferhog7705 it was basically made to promote a cell phone game, because the playable characters from that game show up in the final scene
It’s an ova, there’s two for FF7. Last Order & On the Way to a Smile.
The fact that we can's use this move while playing as him in Rebirth is criminal.
Cloud is practically a pin cushion at this point
When Sephiroth was going to stab Mario, he was unable to stab at his chest.
My friends and family aren’t caught up on this stuff, so I just troll em and make em think Mario died. I later show them the next image🤣
Bruh advert children was so brutal.
One thing that doesn't stay consistent throughout the different final fantasies.. Sephiroth's sword length
A bit of a gamble on the size.
Thank you
If I saw this 3 weeks ago, I would have thought it was a shitpost
Dante : First Time?
After all those years sephiroth didn't learn he should aim for the head...
2:53
Smash players be like: bro just tech that
2:56
After all of these Cloud-Kabobs, Sephiroth decided "Hmm. I think I'll be having Italian tonight".
The anime one is pretty badass.
*Cloud Strife:* THIS IS NOT PLEASANT!!!
Cloud just keeps getting stabbed :P
as much as I feel sorry sorry cloud getting stabbed in advent children... sephiroth looks absolutely incredible in that scene. sorry cloud 💀
Sephiroth - been making sephie stick since 1997
Cloud - that goddamn phone
I wish that was a command grab in Smash
On the one hand I wanna say you missed Aerith's death, but on the other hand I appreciate not being reminded of that.
0:40 they might have gotten copyright struck and they were forced to remove the sound from the ff7 movie
Cloud: exists
Sephiroth: stabs cloud
This is how Sephiroth handles his selfie like a Selfie-roth
1997 actually looks decent
Sephiroth be like "how many times do I have to impale this chocobo-haired twink for him to actually die... oh no he yeeted me again, by Jenova this can't be happening"
1:26 lmao what is this voice acting.
"argh I got stabbed!"
I don’t think this is an official dub, because I have Last Order, and it was never dubbed in English.
This is the best part of Sephiroth that I like, stabbing cloud almost in each game/movie
I love how nintendo made him grab Mario by his strap instead of actually stabbing him to make it family friendly
Edgy
And when Cloud comes in to rush Sephiroth, the man just yeets Mario off the tip of Masamune for like a few frames
Advent children was so brutal bajeesus!
Are we just gonna ignore arith death via Sephiroth
cmon dude dont spoil
1:17 Ugh... I'm getting a little nauseated from that blood.
I get that he's wearing gloves but how did cloud not cut the shit out of his fingers when he grabbed and lifted the sword like that
I seen Sephiroth stab Cloud so many times but the one from advent still hurt me
Wtf I didn't know there was an anime!
The Last Order OVA? Yeah, there's a fan dub out there.
@@Nod_Lucario I prefer sub but I'll definitely check it out
Crisis Core was the best final fantasy I ever played.
“Whom the hell are you?” 😂😂😂
The channel that covered the OWA in the AC part is Enrico Deina by the way, a shame that wasn't anywhere
In advent children he stopped the omnislash because he's seen it once already he knows how to counter it but he had no idea how to counter versions 5 and 6
You know, looking back it makes more sense in the original game when Cloud would lift Sephiroth for only about a second before throwing him.
*Wow dude getting stabbed like... 5 Times?*
You can see it in Before crisis and Mobius Final Fantasy too
well almost
Ok, Sephiroth straight up stabbed Cloud, and Cloud survives. Because that makes sense!
In the og ff7 it looks like a stab to the gut more than the chest, which is a lot more survivable. But then again the sword moves a lot due to how the models are animated, it looks like it goes in his pelvis at one point.
this is missing the one from FF mobius, cause yeah it happened again over there
Were there ever any Final Fantasy Games On The Sega Saturn???
Advent Children was the best one.
can’t wait to see this in remake pt 2
1:38 why does every game have a TV show of its own that nobody knows about?
It’s called selfie stick 😂
