      Remake Cloud has it rough.

So Remake Cloud doesn’t know what’s real and reality itself also doesn’t know what’s real.

      Cloud suffered a lot from the Mako experiments Hojo did on him and Zack, and Zack's death broke his heart and mental state for sure. Which is why he was as he was, until near the climax of the original where he fell into the Mako with Tifa, and the two worked together to restore his memories.

    • @hp2546
      @hp2546 2 місяці тому +1

      If Zack were to survive, he would of went to Midgar and joined Avalanche. Remember when Zack brings the unconscious Cloud to the truck. During that truck ride, Zack made dreams together to do mercenary jobs with Cloud. Joining Avalanche does fit the definition of a mercenary jobs. Mercenary is a soldier who is paid to fight by a country or group that they do not belong to. Synonyms: hireling, freelance [history], soldier of fortune, condottiere [history] More Synonyms of mercenary. So when you started that FFVII original game, it shows Cloud joining Avalanche without Zack. So if Zack survived, he would of went with Cloud to join Barrett's group in Avalanche. That meant if Zack left sooner just like Zangan, he would not be caught by Shinra soldiers. I mean Zangan had to leave Nibelheim and he dragged that unconscious Tifa and went to Midgar. Zangan and Tifa was considered Group 1. Zack and Cloud was considered group 2 of leaving Nebelheim. Zack also had to drag the unconscious body out of Nibelheim too. Zack stopped by at Gongaga on his way to Midgar which meant he got caught by Shinra soldiers. If Zack survived, Barrett would of had 2 more members added in his Avalanche group.

    So let me get this straight:
    Cloud saved Aerith.
    Arbiters reset so Aerith died like in the original.
    Jenova fight as usual.
    Cloud fights Sephiroth. Aerith's Lifestream ghost helps.
    Cloud thinks Aerith isn't dead and sees her and the sky hole when the others don't.
    Nanaki feels her presence, hinting that Cloud is seeing her ghost from the Lifestream.
    Am I in the ballpark?

      Apparently, Cloud saved her in his mind, and watching her alive is just a way for him to cope with Aerith's death. (You can see Cloud holding Aerith and being sad.) So, all that talk about changing their fate or rewriting their destiny has gone down the drain, which means the arbiters are pointless too. Because if everything must happen again, then why are they here? You can blame Nomura for thinking that creating a lot of questions make the players be invested in the story when actually it only pisses us off.

Trying to make a death look so complicated takes away the emotional impact.

They also help themselves out of the Jenova cells. But back to the point, Sephiroth can only ever summon Meteor with his og body and thus absorb the energy of the lifestream into it to manage to become a God.

Also, in the very end, Aerith did not vanish like a ghost would do. Cloud is not crazy, he is LITERALLY struck between timelines. Aerith is the cat, Sephiroth is the poison, cloud is the box. It seems that Sephiroth is shifting timelines freely to reach his goals.

But every time he tries to change something, reality refuses to accept his changes, because subconsciously, CLoud knows that's not how it is supposed to go.

    It's perfectly obvious what's happening this time. Cloud has saved her in another timeline thus creating a new world where Aerith survives Sephiroth's attack. Somehow Cloud is glitching between both worlds one where he saved her and the one where we failed (Beagle timeline from Remake and Rebirth).The Aerith that comes afterwards is the ghost of our timelines Aerith. The fact that Cloud is the only one who can see the rift in the sky makes me think that the ending Aerith might be in another timeline and that's why Cloud is the only one who somehow can see the Rift of that timeline. Or because we have created the timeline where she survives we lost something and our world is being torn apart because of it. But it's perfectly obvious Aerith has survived in one timeline and not in another. How this will move things for part 3 though we have to wait and see. And I have a feeling the timeline split has started right where Cloud entered the portal before Aerith and was changed by Cloud when he hit masamune with his sword.

      The new one appears all the time and he has lost twice already, he killed Aerith in a scene that it's just kinda... Generic? And he will lose again on Part 3, and now Sephiroth is a dude that is trying to fuck the timeline too, but one thing that i like on Remake is that they focused more on the "messing up with Cloud's mind" part of him.
      Sephiroth was never a very complex character but his whole appeal was that he felt like a horror villain sometimes and was mysterious, they could've added more of him but not make him lose TWICE before the final battle, now Sephiroth feels just like a normal anime villain but that it's still interesting because he's Sephiroth.

      My interpretation, Zack is still dead. He's helping fight Sephiroth on the lifestream side. Cloud has PTSD induced from being dumped in Mako for 4 years, which becomes important later. He thinks Aerith is still alive and that he saved her from that stab when he actually didn't. It's actually her spirit that you see in the final fight and ending.

With Aerith, I believe she is still dead but it is a bit ambiguous if the one that appeared in the ending is a product of Cloud's increasing insanity/denial or she became one with the Lifestream or is an alternate Aerith that was successfully saved but only Cloud can communicate. The ending also emphasizes that Cloud can see the cracks of space and time.

  • @ionel2921

    When they show the frame with the Masamune embedded in the floor, you can see the classic "distortions" he experiences when he distorts reality, such as when Zack is mentioned, and you hear the famous three notes of the intro, the same ones you hear when a tear escapes in the Remake. In the third part of the game, they could show the same scene with Sephiroth actually pulling the bloodied sword from Aerith's body. In fact, upon closer observation, there are two angles and two different floors. One is just in Cloud's head where he deflected the attack, and another with the sword impaled THROUGH Aerith's body and blood starting to flow. Sephiroth smiles, pulls out the sword (from the body), and we see the classic scene of Aerith falling as the music starts. Even when the rest of the team approaches, you see the classic disturbances with a bloody scene and a clean one (in Cloud's head). Although it's intentionally done to confuse and mislead, we simply see what actually happened and what Cloud sees from the moment his psyche begins to deny Aerith's death, including her telling him "it's all right" and him laying her on her back. After defeating the boss, we see Tifa and the others looking at the deceased body lying on its side, while when Cloud approaches, he only sees her lying on her back, even opening her eyes and responding to him, obviously only in his head. I mean, even him rejecting Sephiroth's sword is all a product of his imagination. In the end, this guy literally saw Zack die before his eyes and removed it all from his memory. Obviously, what really happened, including him laying Aerith's body in the lake, will be revealed in the last part when Cloud, fallen into the lifestream, regains control of his memories and himself 😢

  • @rahterminator1596

    Many people said when Cloud saved Aerith, he was just imagining it. But from the way I see it, Cloud actually did saved Aerith, however Sephiroth used the power of the Arbitrer of Fate to change the outcome which resulted in Aerith's death. So basically, Cloud initially did managed to saved Aerith, but Sephiroth reversed the outcome which is why Aerith still ends up death.

      Also should be mentioned Red felt her presence when they were on the grassy terrain cause he is connected with it from her previously tapping him and calming him down. He was roped into what Aerith was familiar with and became knowledgeable of both the whispers and the future.

    My take on this is that the Cloud we have at the end is a Cloud who is merged with the timeline that saved Aerith and the one that didn't. He see's both at the same time and he's somewhat aware of it. Sephiroth and Aerith both have the ability to merge and divide timelines and Sephiroth's goal is to create a perfect setup to become an absolute God by creating a bunch of timelines then merging them in a way where he wins. The Aerith we have at the end is the one that was saved from Sephiroth's plunge and she's going back to her timeline to start the opposite of what he's doing to counteract his plans.
