Seeing Cloud and Zack fight, you see certain aspects of their fighting style. Cloud has affinity with the Buster Sword but os wholly reliant on it to deliver both quick and powerful blows. Zack has owned the Buster Sword longer and understands the nuance of using such a large blade. Therefore, he opts to attack with his body in conjunction with the weighted swings of the sword to get the most optimal and balanced damage per second. Cloud has variety while Zack has consistency.
This is very well shown in their win pose. Cloud spins his sword only a couple times with difficulty and then rests it on his shoulder while Zack spins it many times with ease before attaching it effortlessly on his back. Brilliant attention to details.
I know some people find OWA overhyped and overplayed, which is a total valid opinion to have. In fact, I actually agree that it is a tad overrated in the grand scheme of FF music. But not once has it ever come on and I not get really fucking pumped. OG, Advent Children, Kingdom Hearts, crisis core, remake, smash. This shit is ALWAYS a banger.
Estuans Interius. ( Burning inside) Ira Vehementi, (In amaritudine.....as it goes on in Carmina Burana) (Amidst violent rage) . Sors Immanis (inhumane fate) Et inanis (and empty) Veni Veni Venias ( Come come Come) Ne me mori facias (Make me not die) Gloriosa, Generosa (Glorious, Generous) Bits of Carl Off"s CARMINA BURANA that make Sephiroth's theme. They are from different and unrelated poems of the piece, but one thing binds them all here: PASSION and FURY. The first 4 verses are bound to Sephiroth's descomunal and murderous Rage that posesses him in the begining of Clouds story. He curses his destiny as an experimental aberration (Sors Immanis and Inanis) in the same dark tone of O Fortuna's choir. As for the last 3 verses we have quotes from the ending of the carmina that are spoken among lovers amidst springs lucious ferver. They want to unite with one another and say " Come quickly, or ill die from love, you are glorious and perfect." The gloriosa is taken from the final acclamation made to APHRODITE in the composition, wich they call QUEEN OF THE WORLD. So this last part contains in itself SEPHIROTHS LONGING and his embracing of his MOTHERS NATURE and his fate as CHOSEN ONE. He stops cursing his orign and is now proud of it. We have 6 verses before the GLORIOSA . 6 is the number of WINGS that SERAPHINS have. So this is quite symbolic and beautifully crafted, its not an accidental choice of verses as it first seemed to me, im amazed. In total we can sum up 7, wich is the number of celestial perfection: heaven had 7 levels. There are 7 archangels. Another numeric coincidence. Lastly, if we add the refrains MISERERE NOBIS and SEPHIROTH we have 9, the most astounding number here. NINE is the number of Angelic Choirs in heaven, or in more straight words: the types of angels of heaven. From greatest to minors: SERAPHINS, CHERUBINS, THRONES, DOMINIONS, POWERS, VIRTUES, PRINCIPALITIES, ARCHANGELS and ANGELS. Since Serphiroth is a LUCIFERINE figure (this goes since his physical aspect to his story of prowess, pride, treason and downfall) we can relate him to the fallen angels. Classical theology speculates if Lucifer was a Seraphim (the greatest among the already greatest choir of angels), a Cherubim or even an Archangel. The One Wing is a reference to ABEZETHIBOU, a famous demon in classic esoterism that followed Belzebul against god and had one of his wings ripped off when he fell to Hell. His wing was red. In the final form; SAFER SEPIROTH, he has 6 white wings, wich is the mark of a seraphin, plus his iconic black wing to make him more stylish. Finally, the most important here: the fact that Cloud defeats Sephiroth while he himself is a LOW RANK soldier serves as a parallel to MICHAEL, that was an humble and small Archangel recognized for DEHTRONING SATAN from heaven. Thats it, the whole game has many symbols and references from judaism/christianism, Kaballah and even Norse mithology (midgar, midgarsommr) in it. PURE ART I MUST SAY.
But here's the thing... The Black Wing was only added first in the Advent Children movie. (KH had more of a dark blue wing) Safer Sephiroth's wing... Was indeed Red. So it was a direct reference to ABEZETHIBOU. And if I may add... The Whisper's theme is musically based off the Carmina Burana. Most important the 'Sors immanis' section. You're fighting against inhumane fate when you fight the Whispers.
@@pt3704 Wow, i didnt know either of these (im not an old fan of the game, sadly), im amazed to confirm about the red wing and i must hear the Whispers now to pick that choir.
@OlorinCirdan Well it isn't a choral piece for the most part. But you'll definitely hear a strong, although non-identical similarity to that part. You can also hear it in the 4th and final movement of One Winged Angel Rebirth. (From FFVII Remake, not Rebirth, as confusing as it is)
Also keep in-mind that the reason why the number 9 is associated with the song is because of Sephiroth's name itself, which is taken directly the 10 Sephiroth of the Judeo mystic practice of Kabbalah; the choir sings Sephiroth 9 times and Sephiroth himself is the 10th.
@@RCDeschene But that was already my premisse, i mentioned the kabbalah. And way before this esoteric branch of judaism exist they already knew that the angels are divided in 9 species, so the number will always be inevitable.
There's just something so harrowing about the part at 4:59 that I love so much, it isn't a leitmotif of anything and it's so disconnected of a melody that the only thing you hear is the ambient noise of the hollow expanse you're in. I'd assume most people wouldn't care about that segment but man... I'm so glad the entire Sephiroth Reborn vs Cloud sequence isn't just a reoccurring song or long even, just like a 30 secondish loop of that piece alone
I understand where you're coming from cause I'm also the person to love parts like that. I'm the one looking up ambient tracks when everyone else wants big loud boss music lol. I love both but there's something beautiful abou the former
Believe me, I love these sections just as much as the more complex pieces. Something amazing about mixing Gregorian Choirs in games like this. Masashi Hamauzu is a genius. Too bad he's considering retiring after the Remake trilogy is over.
The first fights theme ive been looking for so long, easily one of my favorite themes of all time, such a classic ff vibe and matches the moment so well
For real! 13 was my first as well, and 13-2 is my fave XD Some of these tracks I could obviously tell it was his work. The theme when you're refitting the regional bosses in the combat simulator sounds straight ripped out of 13!
The beginning of this track gave me major the”the worlds enemy” from chrisis core vibes. If that was intentional due to Zack being there in the standoff then hats off to the composers awaits so good
I love how everyone complained that the chorus in Sephiroth's theme was too late in Remake, so the second he enters the final phase here in Rebirth, the chorus is the *first* thing you hear.
Sames, I love One Winged Angel but it's gotten more than enough remixes, Birth of a God is severely underrated!! I am worried they won't include that track or Bizarro/Rebirth Sephiroth in part 3 since he's already appeared here though 😭
I’m 99% sure it’ll be in Part 3. They used a more ominous theme for this fight because it’s a dark part of the story. Birth of a God has more of a rock sound which works better for the battle at the North Crater than it would here.
@justinhurowitz70 Well, would it be more suited for the first visit to the northern crater? Because I wouldn’t assume that part 3 is going to go through both disc 2 AND 3
@@WL-bs4nc IIRc the devs have already said it's gonna be 3 parts. They can easily do Disc 2 and 3 in one game, the majority of FF7 was on Disc 1. Disc 2 is much shorter and Disc 3 is literally just the final dungeon and the endgame sidequests because they needed extra space for the ending FMV
@@thatstheway2429lol I just beat it tonight and I was getting my ass kicked and all of the music stopped and a soft horn started blowing and I was like yeah I’m fucked lol
I mean the way these characters fight in battle is pretty fucking theatrical-I mean it looks so fun in this world to be able to do sick anime shit like this
I wouldn't be surprised if there is a level of inspiration from Loveless in these games. With Loveless being about 3 friends and Crisis Core centered around Angeal, Seph and Genesis, I could totally see them trying to mimic that in this project by having Zack, Cloud and Seph be the 3 "friends."
Masashi Hamauzu did both sections, the Loveless tracks and the Sephiroth Reborn Tracks. (As well as some stuff for the Barret Dyne segmanet, and a few other tracks like the first Zack fight segment at he start of the game.) So the similarities are not an illusion, you are hearing Hamauzu pop the f off.
I know we’re all excited to take down the real Sephiroth next game, but can I say… I’m really looking forward to using Vincent to shoot Hojo in the face on top of the Sister Ray. The other two characters will just be there to back him up, Vincent needs his revenge :3
I think Cloud, Vincent and Red are the ones with the greatest reason to fight Hojo And for the prior fight against Scarlet and Heidegger, Cloud, Barret and Cait Sith. Wish you could substitute Cloud for Yuffie though
I will say I played the OG in 97 at 11 years old and beat it. My uncle gave me a strategy guide lol. But I’m almost 38 and yea it may mean more to me playing this than the younger gens but I love that these games have gotten the young gens invested and love FF7 and all FF games. Can’t wait for part 3. If I’m here still I pray I am
You and me both my friend. Hope you enjoy the game and get ready for the SUPERNOVA! WE WILL SAVE EVERYONE AND THIS IS FOR ZACK AND AERITH! Embrace your dreams and whatever happens protect your honor as a soldier!
21:15 Little did he know, that shit would work on him again in short order. Black comedy aside goddamn, the absolute slam of it coming back on after that transition is nuts. The audio equivalent of hope incarnate...followed up by the reminder that you're fighting a dude who doesn't just want to rule anymore, he wants it to be *absolute* now and he'll flat out weaponize fate itself to make it happen.
I just watched a live orchestra play this last night, Dec 13, 2024 in Edmonton Alberta, Canada. They are doing a world tour and I must say... The whole performance was breathtaking but the part that really stood above, the part that sent chills live was when the choir started chanting at 12:33... from then on it was surreal, 13:50 onward was unlike anything I've ever seen or felt anywhere. If they are coming to an area near you I highly recommend it. I bought a PS1 back in '97 to get FF7 when it came out, I feel so fortunate that this is the one game that gathered enough appreciation that it was remade to the highest degree I've ever witnessed.
While Cloud-Aerith vs Sephiroth theme is a BANGER. I just loved last part of Sephiroth Reborn even more. It's a mix of Whisper's Harbinger, Sephiroth Reborn, with a touch of One Winged Angel Choir. It screams "You're close, you're too close"
My God why is Aerith just so gorgeous and her voice actress Briana White is too good lord you should check out her bikini spread she did I was like OMG! Ur yeah that was some Advent Children Shit literally with Cloud/Aerith vs Sephiroth and dude when he stabbed her through the gut in battle as a move THAT HE ONLY DOES TO HER was sick!!! I’m like nah ni*** you gotta go down for that.
18:11 That shit really scared me in my first playthrough, i remember to look behind me to see if there was something else because it was almost 4:00 AM
I REALLY dig bizarro's design and even magic effects being pulled straight from the ps2 era. Like the visuals for him all feel like they heavily referenced every detail from the original
Not sure if anyone's noticed, but in the first fight with Zack you can hear Trigger Situation from DoC, while in the second one, you can hear Thunder Plains from FFX.
Fun fact : the One Wing Angeled is called "Rebirth" on the FF7 remake soubdtrack, and this one is officially called "One Winged Angel - Reborn", guess we now know the title of the part 3
That line low key was one of the top lines in this phenomenal part 2 finale that had me shook especially if you fully understand the meaning by his comment
The Zack vs Sephiroth Reborn section ❤ epic. Like someone else on here said especially at 10:50 coming back even getting thrown into his own fight... the vibe of this is like going back in time controlling Zack. Like playing things out through a family member in the past......or like my older brother who died in 2022 coming back to help fight.. then has his own fight after the fact
I can't decide. One Winged Angel itself is better on the Remake imo, but the other boss themes for Jenova Lifeclinger, Sephiroth's first phase and Sephiroth Reborn, and also the boss gauntlet itself, are my absolute favorites on Rebirth
Is it me or the very end of the track as been cut ? The section when Cloud and Aerith are back to back and she fade away. Is it possible to bring it back ? I really like this part as it bring a touch of finality to this long gauntlet of boss fights, especially with the light use of the main theme.
2:25 & 4:05 anyone else get some Trigger Situation/Terminus vibes from Dirge of Cerberus? More than vibes, really, like almost the exact same latin phrase although I can't make out the words.
Would you be able to upload the song that plays in the final chapter when Aerith and Cloud are back in the church? I love that scene so much and would love to be able to just listen to the song alone
Lyrics Sephiroth reborn (phase 5) Estuans interius lva vehement Estuans interius lva vehement Estuans interius lva vehement Estuans interius lva vehement Sephiroth Sephiroth Veni Veni venian ne me mori facias Veni Veni venian ne me mori facias Veni Veni venian ne me mori facias (Glorious generosa) (5x) Sephiroth (phase 2) Estuans interius lva vehement Estuans interius lva vehement Sephiroth Sephiroth Estuans interius lva vehement Estuans interius lva vehement Sephiroth Sephiroth Estuans interius lva vehement (8x) (Instrumental) Veni Veni venian ne me mori facias (Glorious generosa) (8x) Sephiroth Sephiroth Sephiroth
Is he playing on Easy mode? How can the purple tornado from Sephiroth's hand (during The end is nigh) takes only 400 HP? When I played it was taking about 2400 HP.
3:45 reminds me a lot of Eidolon’s from FFXIII, specifically that it not only sounds similar in rhythm, but I’m positive it’s used in the same key (I could also be thinking of the Dissidia remix tho). Am I going crazy?
I didn’t realize when he does his “End is Nigh” attack, if you fail to defeat him, he just OBLITERATES you. So I failed killing him on my first go around thanks to that realization 🤣
Hmmm something I just noticed... at the very beginning when it's Zack and Cloud facing Seph, they each take a pose. At the very end when it's Cloud and Aerith facing seph after he's been defeated, Cloud takes Zack's pose from the start of the video. Hmmm...
You only ever fight Sephiroth as Bizzaro & Safer in the Northern Crater in the OG. All you fight at the Gongaga reactor in OG is Big Wheel, AKA Tankceratops, which is now a 4-legged dinosaur-like enemy in Rebirth during a side quest in the region.
As great as this music is this whole fight took way too long imo. Keep in mind if you lose you CAN’T skip the cutscenes during phase changes which was one of my biggest concerns with part 1.

It takes 8 people and multiple dimensions to just make him take a knee.
Really shows just how tough he is
Almost correct. It takes 8 people of super human strength to make him take a knee.
No creo que red y cait cuenten como personas pero bueno 😅
Seeing Cloud and Zack fight, you see certain aspects of their fighting style. Cloud has affinity with the Buster Sword but os wholly reliant on it to deliver both quick and powerful blows. Zack has owned the Buster Sword longer and understands the nuance of using such a large blade. Therefore, he opts to attack with his body in conjunction with the weighted swings of the sword to get the most optimal and balanced damage per second. Cloud has variety while Zack has consistency.
This is very well shown in their win pose. Cloud spins his sword only a couple times with difficulty and then rests it on his shoulder while Zack spins it many times with ease before attaching it effortlessly on his back. Brilliant attention to details.

The way it hits like oh shit he finally got serious
The chills hit me when the marching theme played and Aerith showed up to fight with Cloud
You and all of us my friend.
SEPHIROTH!
The one and only "Why do I hear boss music?" soundtrack.
I know some people find OWA overhyped and overplayed, which is a total valid opinion to have. In fact, I actually agree that it is a tad overrated in the grand scheme of FF music.
But not once has it ever come on and I not get really fucking pumped. OG, Advent Children, Kingdom Hearts, crisis core, remake, smash.
This shit is ALWAYS a banger.
Estuans Interius. ( Burning inside)

Veni Veni Venias ( Come come Come)
Ne me mori facias (Make me not die)
Gloriosa, Generosa (Glorious, Generous)
Bits of Carl Off"s CARMINA BURANA that make Sephiroth's theme. They are from different and unrelated poems of the piece, but one thing binds them all here: PASSION and FURY.
The first 4 verses are bound to Sephiroth's descomunal and murderous Rage that posesses him in the begining of Clouds story. He curses his destiny as an experimental aberration (Sors Immanis and Inanis) in the same dark tone of O Fortuna's choir.
As for the last 3 verses we have quotes from the ending of the carmina that are spoken among lovers amidst springs lucious ferver. They want to unite with one another and say " Come quickly, or ill die from love, you are glorious and perfect." The gloriosa is taken from the final acclamation made to APHRODITE in the composition, wich they call QUEEN OF THE WORLD.
So this last part contains in itself SEPHIROTHS LONGING and his embracing of his MOTHERS NATURE and his fate as CHOSEN ONE. He stops cursing his orign and is now proud of it.
We have 6 verses before the GLORIOSA . 6 is the number of WINGS that SERAPHINS have. So this is quite symbolic and beautifully crafted, its not an accidental choice of verses as it first seemed to me, im amazed.
In total we can sum up 7, wich is the number of celestial perfection: heaven had 7 levels. There are 7 archangels. Another numeric coincidence.

The whole performance was breathtaking but the part that really stood above, the part that sent chills live was when the choir started chanting at 12:33... from then on it was surreal, 13:50 onward was unlike anything I've ever seen or felt anywhere. If they are coming to an area near you I highly recommend it. I bought a PS1 back in '97 to get FF7 when it came out, I feel so fortunate that this is the one game that gathered enough appreciation that it was remade to the highest degree I've ever witnessed.
Anyone else notice cloud does Zack pose from 0:55 after beating sephiroth ay 26:31
10:07 this is my favorite line in final fantasy 7 rebirth zack and cloud said embrace your dreams and whatever happens protect your honor as soldier
2:38 cloud vs sephiroth reborn and the chorus is absolutely iconic and divine
While Cloud-Aerith vs Sephiroth theme is a BANGER.
I just loved last part of Sephiroth Reborn even more.
It's a mix of Whisper's Harbinger, Sephiroth Reborn, with a touch of One Winged Angel Choir.
It screams "You're close, you're too close"
My God why is Aerith just so gorgeous and her voice actress Briana White is too good lord you should check out her bikini spread she did I was like OMG! Ur yeah that was some Advent Children Shit literally with Cloud/Aerith vs Sephiroth and dude when he stabbed her through the gut in battle as a move THAT HE ONLY DOES TO HER was sick!!! I’m like nah ni*** you gotta go down for that.
18:11 That shit really scared me in my first playthrough, i remember to look behind me to see if there was something else because it was almost 4:00 AM
“You thought your reality was safe too?”
-sephiroth probably
@@Capothekid "I'm waiting, Williambirkin"
The structure of this fight is exactly how I hope for Part three's to go down. Probably just longer and grander.
This has become one of my favorite games ever, I’m so excited for the next part …
Thank you a lot. That will be my soundtrack while working for the next months :)
I REALLY dig bizarro's design and even magic effects being pulled straight from the ps2 era. Like the visuals for him all feel like they heavily referenced every detail from the original
I've lost count with how many times I harmonized at 2:24-4:23 when they started. That was ear candy! ✨
The beginning is so awsome, i Had so much goosebumps 👌👌👌
Not sure if anyone's noticed, but in the first fight with Zack you can hear Trigger Situation from DoC, while in the second one, you can hear Thunder Plains from FFX.
I was just thinking that ! That’s such a nice cool touch to the soundtrack
I wonder if they’ll ever introduce a mechanic like this in KH4, where you can swap between party members on the fly. That could be interesting
we need a party with riku and kairi so bad at some point
I did this whole fight sky high. It was pretty epic on dynamic mode. That omnislash.
Fun fact : the One Wing Angeled is called "Rebirth" on the FF7 remake soubdtrack, and this one is officially called "One Winged Angel - Reborn", guess we now know the title of the part 3
Reborn maybe, but I thought it was more likely to be Reunion. Both work well :)
Yeah I'm shooting for either Reborn or Reclamation because Seph is constantly talking about reclaiming HIS world.
Probably going to be reborn because reunion has been used once for Crisis core
I think it'll be FF7 Retinoblastomas
My (completely baseless) guess is Resolve
Christ, I get instant goosebumps as soon as those choirs come in when Sephiroth Reborn appears
The 11:58 segment is just sublime omg
10:50, Zack’s part is the best part of the boss theme
Big facts!!!!
Sephiroth's megalomania sure is big.
22:00 this part hits perfectly for me for some reason..
13:27 Sephiroth just slapping Yuffie into oblivion 😂
11:59 and onward was a nostalgic nod to us old school 90s gamers who first heard One Winged Angel in the original FF7 back in 1997.
00:00 zack and cloud vs sephiroth this is so iconic
zack and cloud battle sephiroth together was magnificent
I must admit… I underestimated you.
That line low key was one of the top lines in this phenomenal part 2 finale that had me shook especially if you fully understand the meaning by his comment
:)
@@georocks3810seems few people do. The only time Sephiroth ever complimented anyone. That's because Aerith isn't dead.
@@georocks3810 The icing on that cake though was how utterly pissed and thrown-off he looked after Cloud & Aerith bested him.
@@ElementalEcho Not omni-Aerith, anyway. Beagle World Aerith is dead.
The Zack vs Sephiroth Reborn section ❤ epic. Like someone else on here said especially at 10:50 coming back even getting thrown into his own fight... the vibe of this is like going back in time controlling Zack. Like playing things out through a family member in the past......or like my older brother who died in 2022 coming back to help fight.. then has his own fight after the fact
Fighting with Zack and Cloud almost gave me a heart attack lol I absolutely loved this game
I love how they are still not doing the true full one winged angel. Super close but not quite. I know the true finalfight is gonna make us all shit.
Rebirth is my favorite game. But honestly, about this OST, i prefered the version of the Remake
Oh yes
I can't decide. One Winged Angel itself is better on the Remake imo, but the other boss themes for Jenova Lifeclinger, Sephiroth's first phase and Sephiroth Reborn, and also the boss gauntlet itself, are my absolute favorites on Rebirth
Sephiroth detail with fighting style is radical , i enjoi his play in the beginning mission as cloud atold the past memory in kalm
This fight puts JJK to shame, they jumped sephiroth in 4 dimensions.
This is PEAK
The title of best jumping of the year goes to FF7
Yep. Insane moments everytime I see. I'm excited for the last part and at the same time I'm anxious if SE can match this epicness.
Say my name! Say my name! Sephiroth!
Is there an official name for the new rendition of One Winged Angel? I'm partial to "One Winged Angel -Reborn".
Classic FF final boss design and sequence.
10:50 - 11:25 has the Thunder Plains motif from FFX : )
Same composer! :D
I think it’s supposed to be an angelic version of the Jenova Absolute theme
@@aprettyfunnyperson4516 i dont know why it would be that when we're not fighting Jenova
@@callmeshaggy5166
Jenova’s theme in Remake has Sephiroth’s theme but you’re not fighting Sephiroth
Can you upload the song played during rufus speech? It was played again in the credits with a choir.
Is it me or the very end of the track as been cut ? The section when Cloud and Aerith are back to back and she fade away.
Is it possible to bring it back ?
I really like this part as it bring a touch of finality to this long gauntlet of boss fights, especially with the light use of the main theme.
Love this final boss theme, but I need to ask: What is Cubia doing in a Final Fantasy game?
2:25 & 4:05 anyone else get some Trigger Situation/Terminus vibes from Dirge of Cerberus? More than vibes, really, like almost the exact same latin phrase although I can't make out the words.
I think they say "Miserere Nobis" or something.
Would you be able to upload the song that plays in the final chapter when Aerith and Cloud are back in the church? I love that scene so much and would love to be able to just listen to the song alone
Zack is like us, he alwasys wonders whats going on. Thats why he is my favorite
you don'r know true anxiety until you're mashing triple slash furiously in the middle of the end is neigh
11:58 red 13 barret and yuffie vs sephiroth reborn he is so powerful

The fact that you need to fight sephiroth so many times throughout the game kinda diminished the importance and mystery of this guy ngl.
Is he playing on Easy mode? How can the purple tornado from Sephiroth's hand (during The end is nigh) takes only 400 HP? When I played it was taking about 2400 HP.
3:45 reminds me a lot of Eidolon’s from FFXIII, specifically that it not only sounds similar in rhythm, but I’m positive it’s used in the same key (I could also be thinking of the Dissidia remix tho). Am I going crazy?
It's the same composer who does the music.
I think these devs know some ff7 fans have small time left, so they gave these sepiroth fights
Cant wait for the 5 Hour 30 Phase bossfight in Part 3
00:25 … I’m done , what a game ..
I didn’t realize when he does his “End is Nigh” attack, if you fail to defeat him, he just OBLITERATES you. So I failed killing him on my first go around thanks to that realization 🤣
And this is when you stagger him and fail to finish it
10:50 -11:25 is just.. wow :)
Hmmm something I just noticed... at the very beginning when it's Zack and Cloud facing Seph, they each take a pose. At the very end when it's Cloud and Aerith facing seph after he's been defeated, Cloud takes Zack's pose from the start of the video. Hmmm...
Esta pelea es larga pero por la banda sonora merece la pena ❤
Can you upload the First Gilgamesh fight when he was summoned by sephirot
Of course bro! I just finished the main story. I'll do the skipping themes in next week! Hope you enjoy it ^^!
@@VincentValentineGaming UwU
That's actually the 2nd fight. First is when we fight him in his arena in his dimension!
I loved beating sephiroth with finishing touch. I was like hell yea lol
This is so beautiful but it do be the ff13 composer afterall
That version of sephiroth is not safer sephiroth, it Is the version we fight in the gongaga reactor in the og iirc
You only ever fight Sephiroth as Bizzaro & Safer in the Northern Crater in the OG. All you fight at the Gongaga reactor in OG is Big Wheel, AKA Tankceratops, which is now a 4-legged dinosaur-like enemy in Rebirth during a side quest in the region.
So beautiful..
0:25 Simplesmente magnífico
Essa é a parte 3? ou a 2, porque tem o remake e o reunion
This is Part 2, Rebirth. Part 3 as of this time is not scheduled to be out anytime soon, nor does it have a name 😂
the zack cloud duo music ^^^^^^3
23:01 not again…
I cannot wait for final fantasy 7 remake part 3
Me too bro!
@@VincentValentineGaming and the video game awards is on December 12th and they Celebrate their 10th anniversary
As great as this music is this whole fight took way too long imo. Keep in mind if you lose you CAN’T skip the cutscenes during phase changes which was one of my biggest concerns with part 1.
Yup bro, you're right! I've failed the battle sequence some time to record the whole theme haha!
