      His change in tone when he goes mad is absolutely fantastic.
      And I liked George Newbern a lot but he was born to play "evil" Sephiroth, his voice as nice-guy Sephiroth in Crisis Core always threw me off. Hoechlin hits a good middle ground, more similar to his Japanese counterpart Morikawa.

    It was always sort of unclear exactly who was more in control in the original game, Sephiroth or JENOVA. But here, I feel like it's pretty clear. As soon as his eyes turn extra green and slitted, right after he breaks down and throws that book off the table, Sephiroth is gone. Even if the original dude is still in there, it probably feels like he's in a fugue state or a dream while his "mother" does all the hard work of thinking for him.

      @@meloo I was gonna say. It was so menacing, but for some reason, he didn't kill them on sight like he did everyone else. He didn't really have a Cloud obsession yet cause Cloud didn't stab him or throw him into the lifestream until later, so I doubt it was to mess with him. He just chose to look at them, stand there for a second, and then turn around. Maybe he was just in a hurry to go see his Mom and got bored of stabbing. But it felt to me like that was the last bit of his human side trying to warn them to just stay back and mind their business.

      I was always confused why Sephiroth went mad all of a sudden after reading all the books. However, in this demo, it does feel like Jenova is taking control of him. I mean, sure, it may be terrible to discover you're a monster and all. But Sephiroth always kept a cool mind. He wouldn't have turned that easily. Unless he was "infected" by Jenova when he got close to her door at the reactor.

      I think the idea was to convey that they were all too terrified to act on it. They acted in a moment of absolute anguish and rage but they know they don't have a shred of chance to even scratch him. They probably thought the first to open fire would be the next to die so no one wanted to try it. And he started to cut them down, they were basically paralyzed by fear. It's actually realistic, there have been examples of people being in danger, aware of it and in a situation where they could have done something but didn't even move and just stood there in panic.
      Doesn't mean the scene isn't awkward though.

    About Sephiroth cutting Tifa, the book Trace of Two Pasts set in the remake continuity gives a full description of the consequences. Sephiroth slashing her severed bone and flesh so severely during the Nibelheim Incident required some major emergency treatment, including medical wire to close the gaps in her wounds. Once all was said and done, overly-expensive skin transplants were then used, closing up what should've been massive scarring from ever occurring.

  • @alimichalkan8046

    Honestly the Nibelheim scene is so sad for me because the people there really wanted to go far and beyond with their hospitality towards Sephiroth. They wanted to give medicine to him for crying out loud!
    Also it is very sad for Sephiroth himself because what he believed about himself was totally false and when Zack said “Sephiroth was created”, that was when he he lost it. I wished I could be there to tell him it doesn’t matter how he was born, because the most important thing is Sephiroth can feel hurt, pain, happiness, sadness. All of these feelings is what makes him a person and he is no different than any other humans. I wished I could have said that to him. The problem is he did not have anyone that was close enough to care about him. Cloud also went through mental breakdown but luckily he has someone who would bring him back to reality. Based on this flashbacks and what was shown in Crisis Core, Sephiroth was indeed a good man. It’s terribly sad with how everything went down.

    • @IamtheMan1111

      No, sephiroth is more than human, more than monster, he was created by cell of jenova. No matter people will sympathize to him, it won't matter to him. If you were born with high IQ like 200 or physical that's more than any normal people, you won't keep yourself at peace, you will feel inferior because you are different than other people, even if you are special or not. That kind of psychology will eventually overwhelming everyone, including sephiroth. Anything can be hurting, people could be jealous because you are special, they will say "oh so he is born from jenova, from monster" Anyone could be mad like sephiroth
      Also that matter could be the reason why sephiroth is more into jenova than his searching surrogate mother. Since he understood that he's born from experiments, he could lost interest on finding her, instead he is only connecting to his own cell to jenova. So, even if he finds his surrogate mother, that doesn't matter to him, his own imaginary mother is jenova.

The opposite is Cloud he clear he's purpose by acting not reading unlike sephiroth and then they both take their real rules because they are the most powerful beings in that universe( Cloud more) The game tell the story in a way that it's not clear what's their purpose and character that they actually are

      I think that not all the content of Crisis Core is a direct canon for this Remake, BUT, they are including some elements from CC. Such as Zack, Cissney and minor background story.
      And this is mainly because Tetsuya Nomura is merging shit from all his compilation such as Advent Children where we can see images from the movie in the final battle of the Remake. And Dirge of Cerberus including Deepground and Tsviets shit in Intermission DLC. So I thunk we can expect to see some Genesis lore around this part when Vincent finally joins the group 🎉

Sephy couldve just been heading to see Jenova while the villagers burmed their town down around him. Dude was too out of it to realize thus he doesnt help. Some people attack him due to the mako poisoning and he defends himself. Everything happens basically the same, just a different cause all blamed on Sephiroth.

      No. They missed out the crucial bit of information from the original where sephiroth learns that a number of the cetra essentially abandoned the other to settle down and settle rather than journey the planet. That group became the humans that exist now whereas the other cetra are essentially extinct, Aerith being the last. Sephiroth thinking he’s a descendent of the true cetra who defeated Jenova wants retribution against the humans who fled which is why he goes on a rampage believing he is the chosen one created to take back the planet and rule it.
      This is completely left out in remake and why the scene falls flat.
