Yes..
your profile pic and this moment lol xD
Cloud falls through the roof.
Aerith: Here we go again...
@@yopitalla oooor more like since CC is a prequel of the original, the original is a cheap rip of CC. That's just how prequels work my friend.
Ze'Roze Of The Faez'd if they tie things in afterwards fora prequel then it’s technically a rip off just not in canonical time inside the series but cloud did it first kinda
@@kane3j336 I feel that. Cloud did it first in our reality's timeline since ff7 the game came out first. However, prequels usually overwrite/retcon these things once they are made. So CC is considered the most recent origin story of the ff7 world and not ff7 itself. Just because ff7 came out first, doesn't mean that's where everything started. It's like telling a story from the climax onward.

@andy pete yes! And that’s why i like tifa the best!
But... she said that “the first guy i ever loved” that’s means now she love another one? How flirting!
Btw, zack was died, now she love the other one who is quite similar with the first love is not that bad! Isn’t it?
And the sentence “don’t fall for me” that because she was died! Don’t let him get hurt for her!
@@Frozeyaourt Nah, he dead
She loved Zack, but he disappeared 5 years ago and she has no idea why. It sucks, but at some point, it’s time to move on. I think she also mentions Zack because she might be curious if he knew whatever became of him.

Uwww I member....
He fell for his best friend's girl. Classic.
He broke the bros code.
Cloud doesn't have Zack's memories.... At least not the Aerith's ones.
He doesn't know who the hell Aerith was when they first meet.
@@crossbow3661 he has all of zacks personality traits which made him attracted to aerith
@@godshenron9306 Actually he doesn't have that either. He has some traits but otherwise, he is the literal opposite of Zack's cheerful and friendly nature. Anyone who played Crisis Core can tell you that.
It's not that complicated. Aerith was attracted to Cloud because of some similarities he had with Zack, Cloud with time, also began to fall for her but then Sephy spilled her guts out in front of him so it never goes anywhere.
@@crossbow3661 Thank you for going out of your way to educate some of these fine fellows. Seriously, it gets annoying when you keep reading all these stuff about zack's memories or traits like no.
I've been to other videos with these same exact comments and it makes me excited to see how the remake is gonna blow people's minds with the ending eventually.
I know the fandom is split on who Cloud loves. Younger me had a bias on the ship and felt he loved one not the other...but older me feels like it was never meant to be that straight forward. I believe that he sincerely loves both women. Tifa was his childhood crush and was what moved him in the past. Aerith was pure light in his dark world. I think part of his feelings for her was mixed with Zack, but I think somehow, Cloud himself caught feelings for her too. After the tragic events and then getting lost in confusion again, Tifa helped him find himself again. I think he did fall for Aerith but that doesn't mean he cannot have sincere feelings for Tifa. Heck, I think Tifa herself loved Aerith dearly as a friend. Survivor's guilt makes it difficult for them to find happiness. As for Aerith, I think she loved Zack and was attracted to Cloud based on his similarities to Zack. However, I think she was also trying to find the "real" Cloud and began falling for him too..but that doens't mean she doesn't love Zack. Love is complicated xD
Talk to me after Zack runs his sword through Sephiroth and Cloud at the same time.
Now that the hero puppy himself is alive it's game over for both of them.
Whom does Cloud love?
Cloud.. loves Tifa.
The broken mind version of Cloud that had convinced himself that Zack's life was his life is the only part of him that would have fallen for Aerith. (and even then, the scene with Tifa in the flowers when he embraces her is likely the canon one).
Because Aerith never knew the 'real' Cloud, only Tifa does. Which is why "Cloud" can't love Aerith, because whom he thought he was at that time was a lie. It's why he nearly snapped when she said Zack's name which his mind muted. That's also why it was Tifa that pulled his mind back together.
The guilt Cloud feels isn't because he was in love with Aerith, it was because he felt he'd failed her and let her die. The Aerith in THIS story seems to be from the same place Sephiroth is from as there's many clues that she knows her fate and is trying to change it. As Red XIII looks at her when he mentions the whispers coming after people trying to change their destiny.
Then in the end you see because of them messing with that, Aerith feels Zack's presence and it's very clear she's still very much in love with him. And if Zack survives.. Aerith is likely going to be with him.
Tbh, I’ve always felt he loved them both. I’ve never bought that it’s just all Zack when it comes to his feelings for Aerith. Maybe to a point it was part of the fabrication, but I think a part of the true Cloud had feelings too. But unfortunately he just never had a chance to definitively pick one and find out which was part of the tragedy. :(
I'm a cloti fan but I absolutely agree with your comment. This pretty much sums up everything coz love truly is complex.
Thank you! That’s an amazing explanation of the complicated characters in FF7. I’m absolutely stoked to see Zack alive again in this remake; albeit in a different timeline, and I can’t stop thinking about the possible ways in which they can reunite and still not tread in fan-fic territory. Here’s to hoping they’ll figure it out!
Aerith: Don't fall in love with me.
*proceeds to touch Cloud's face
Girl, you been sending mixed signals here.
Not really, she tells him that since her last love died and she blames herself for it, she does care deeply for Cloud, and is afraid, fate will repeat itself and he will die because of it, so she tells him not to fall in love with her, but he did, and so did she with him, it becomes very clear at the Gold Saucer later on.
That's why Homo Sep killed Aerith
As most women do
@Jack Deth What fantasy is this? lol
@@PollenAinne uhh... Final Fantasy
Am I the only one that is wondering how Cloud is sitting down with that sword in that position??
THANK YOU!
Like the classic goof with Kadaj's sword in Advent Children. Watch when he kneels down in front of Rufus Shinra- for a company obsessed with big swords they sure do forget to pay attention to 'em a lot.
NO YOURE NOT
It's bending
Look at 1:10 , how dafq does that even work
9:47 Cloud's reaction is low-key painful
That the face of getting rejected 😖
Like he was stabbed, pretty realistic if you asked me.
Like Aerith said, its not real.
I feel like Aerith knows what's going to happen to her, which is why she tells Cloud not to fall in love with her because she doesn't want him to get hurt when she's gone 😭
Jenova is influencing his attachment to Aerith and that's why she said whatever you feel even if you think it's real it's not because he's being influenced by someone else well that's a theory I heard more recently
I like to think how many times does Aerith continue on that spiral path of fate.
How many times has she tried to defy her destiny, the never ending conflict of Aerith and Sephiroth.
Sephiroth always win, tragic.
@@lennymosca9099 Stupid theory!! If anything, Cloud's jenova cells may influence him to have feelings for Tifa. Because his jenova cells had read Tifa's memories not Zack's.
Only one messing with Cloud's feelings about Aerith was Zack.
Jenova just messes with his brain makimg him see Sephiroth everywhere and call her mom.
When u r reading people’s theory comments at 12AM.
Lmao, I didn't even play the game yet here I am being hooked up by the clips of the game and people's theory about this Cloud's lover
Perfect Wife Material relatable. I’m kinda a sucker for romance. So uh...there I was, interested in video game character shipping at 12AM 💀
Same
More like 4AM
12 AM? You gotta pump those rookie numbers.
She loved Zack, then moved on, then she loved Cloud for Zack, then she loved Cloud for Cloud... It's not that complicated, tbh
And, in any case, once in the afterlife, she reunited with Zack, love isn't set in stone
Then in Maiden Who Travels The Planet, she said she preferred Cloud. And that novel is definitely canon because SE never said it wasn’t (not only that but in FF7 Dismantled, pretty much the Bible of FF7, Aerith said she loves Cloud more while in Gongaga)
@@magicalgirl4 It wouldn't surprise me, she could still be loving cloud, but most importantly, once in the lifestream she assumed the role of a kind of goddess for the planet
And, except for some animes, goddesses rarely have the time to date 😂
@EduardoSalgado but Aerith never knew the "real Cloud" while she was living, as he was still immersed in his false persona. She wanted to "meet" him, but couldn't. It had to be Tifa to put Cloud's psyche back together, as she and Cloud share memories of both the past and present.
IMO, in the time preceding Aerith's death in the original, Cloud wasn't really in the mental state to love anyone, regardless of who was in love with him. Really, it's not until after the events of AC that it seems like he's ready to give up the self-punishment and self-hatred complex.
@@magicalgirl4 There's been no statement that Maiden Who Travels the Planet is canon, and I don't really consider it so given how flippantly they treat Aerith and Zack's relationship in it compared to in Crisis Core (which is definitely SE-endorsed canon).
In Maiden Who Travels the Planet, the author basically makes Zack out to be a skirt chaser, whereas in Crisis Core, it is clear that his feelings for Aerith are 100% sincere and that he basically died trying to get back to her in the end. No offense to the author of Maiden, but I found the writing (at least the English translation of it) to be pretty poor all around-- it did not do any of the characters or their relationships justice, and I say that as a fan of Aerith's (at least, as a fan of her depiction as a beautiful, independent steward of the planet).
And she will be reunited with cloud too, For me, She Reunited with Zack to close the open doors left with his sudden death... She waits for Cloud , he also said that his "promised land" is to be with aerith in the other life.
Aerith: Don't fall in love with me.
Me: Too late
*Wasted!*
I'm sorry Zack
23 years late
FF 10 did it first.
Damn you can see every strand in Aerith’s hair, this game looks amazing
Graphics have always been amazing since 13, I mean even 13 graphics aged really well, graphics have always been a strong selling point after ff 13.
Ben Smith Character models yes, look nice, but nearly anything else is... pretty bad. Texture quality is just awfull
except for everything else, lol. Just look at the background
Most environments are stunning, though a few objects have jarring low res textures, seems to be a recurring theme with unreal engine 4.
@@qwerty3644 Not an issue with the engine, more likely issue with the platform and/or models.
Cloud might be Iconic, but Zack is the true CHAD of FFVII. Handsome, Fun, Brave, Loyal, Charming. Literally perfect guy.
To be fair, Cloud could've easily been like Zack. Cloud's childhood wasn't exactly great, he had no friends, Cloud's only friend was Tifa and some shit happened during their childhood. Fast forward, he failed his SOLDIER dream, became a lone wolf due to shame. His idol Sephiroth razed his village, killed his mother, nearly killed his best friend and his crush. Dealt with Sephiroth just to be experimented afterwards with Jenova cells, then finds out his best friend ends up dying protecting him. That's my Ted talk. Thank you xD
@@trh3xa174 lucky thing tho Zack survives the new time line change. Sadly with a new voice actor
@なおみ you really have no idea about *FF 7 universe* do you ? You must be one of those people who only played *FF 7* and nothing else after that . The worst thing is not that you talk shit about something different . Its that you talk shit about something you have *NO idea* about its story and course mate
@なおみ Like i said i respect your opinion but don't force *YOUR opinion on others* . You clearly haven't played anything else then the first one . That's why people like you i call them closed minded . You don't think , you don't want to know or explore the story and its mysteries . You are obsessed with *Cloud* and i get that on a certain level i used to when i was a little younger but *Zack* has given us things that others couldn't . Anyways though i see you are not listening or taking any advice at least don't talk shit about something you don't know friend
@なおみ Actually no . Now that you clarify your statement better i understand . I didn't saw you writing anything about that before that's why i answered the way i did . If you have indeed played the game and you truly know then its fine and i can't tell you anything . Am actually glad you have played all of them and its your favourite . Maybe i read something wrong or maybe you didn't clarify it correctly and people might get confused . As for the fact you said that am mad cause you don't like *Zack* not actually true . I don't care if people don't like *Zack* as long they have a good *reason* for it . You said you reason and i respect that
She is telling us not to fall in love with her because of her fate😭
But it doesn't make sense. She flirt with Cloud every minutes.
@@danhdao7417 and? It's been awhile and your saying she can't try and move on?
@@danhdao7417 This is true but maybe she knows her fate( if you played the original game you know her fate) at least what it should be but this is a new timeline and everything will change(maybe)
actually she specifically also added "even if you think you have, it's not real," indicating she knows this isn't the "real" Cloud. She also knew it wasn't the "real" Cloud in the OG as well.
@@back2back379 the theories are gonna be crazy. Can't wait for more of the game to come out
All this dudes who doesnt know Zack and didnt played crisis core are missing soo much.
well crisis core came out years after the original game, and people were perfectly fine before it...
@@acousticlibra383 But it adds so much? Seeing Sephiroth before he was just a religious zealot, Aerith before she became a clingy thot who tries too hard to be cutesy like how she is in the remake, Zack being an awesome MC. I think it's a solid prequel.
Yep solid prequel
In fact thats the only game i cry
When i finish the game
I was like *there has to be some sort of alternate ending that zack survive and go back to aerith*
Crisis core is a pure che d'oeuvres
I want zack back
If they make a continuity
Zack X aerith
Cloud X tifa
Seems more clean and better
@@christianguerrero70 I don't think she is a clingy thot, she doesn't even love Cloud. I mean, I guess that is how you see it. I did think she was dislikable *before* I played the game.

@@mattiabacciocchi2300 just kidding i know that is a *Zack* line 😂😂😂😂
I was just screwing around 😂
I like Cloud and Tifa being together the best, but I'm not even gonna cap. Cloti shippers are so toxic, they dont respect both sides of the coin. Aerith undoubtedly reciprocated feelings for Cloud. Yes, she loved Zack a lot, but he passed away. Sure, Zack is still very important to her and she definitely cherishes him in her thoughts. This doesnt mean she can't love Cloud. Even in the original game In the golden saucer scene, she states that she knows their both different people now, and how she might've fallen for him as Cloud. No I don't like Aerith more than Tifa, quite the opposite actually. This doesn't mean the romance between Cloud and Aerith wasn't garbage. The creator of ff7 implemented the love triangle element for a reason, and I believe this subplot was quite intriguing, and I can definitely see both romances being fruitful.
Yea from you "could" see it being fruitful to you "can" now with the whispers gone. They can potentially bring back Jessie too. Nothing contradicts anything because Jessie wasn't definitely dead at that point.
I totally agree with your statement, I admit that I ship Cloud and Aerith really hard lol; but I truly understand why Aerith belongs to Zack, coming from the original and Crisis Core; as for Cloud and Tifa, I honestly really didn't see that much romance between them, in the OG and remake version
Cloud and Tifa are such a better ship. Childhood friends with a clear attraction for one another. Always have each others backs.
I always thought Aerith in the original game comes across as a homewrecker.
@@deeppanpizza4847 how is Aerith a home wrecker when Cloud and Tifa were never together? Cloud may have had some feelings as a child but they hardly talked as children. It was when Aerith first came along that Cloud first discovered how it feels to feel in love. In the OG, and Remake.
@@deeppanpizza4847 Not only the best, but also the only one 😉
For the people who didn't get the "Don't fall in love with me" line
It was alluded that Aerith knew the original plot of FF7 or somewhat vaguely knew. Its possible she knew of her fate in the original timeline. She told him not to fall in love with her because she knew it'll only break Cloud's heart
Unfortunatelly, this comment session is all Zack fans who think she only say that bc of Zack, like she can't love someone else.
I totally agree. Thank you! And as a side note from the book "The Look Ahead"
white lifestream 2 :... But she was equally afraid of hurting Cloud with it. Because the Cloud she knew was very vulnerable.
So much for the topic she doesn't really know him
She said the same thing in the original final fantasy 7 tho..
the part of it being illusion or not real was also about zack its pretty disingenuous to play stupid about that part in their dynamic when it has such a big influence. its not just about knowing the future here.
Aerith said to Cloud to not fall in love with her because she is from the future like Sephiroth in the Remake and she knows that Cloud ιs not himself. She knows that Clouds feelings are not real since he doesn't act out of his own will and acts like Zack. You can clearly see at the ending of the Remake when Aerith senses Zack that she still misses him. That's why she says I miss the steel sky(or in the Japanese version I hate the sky). This is a reference to Crisis Core and the fact that she was afraid of the sky and preferred living in the Slums under the plate(Steel Sky) when she was with Zack. It might also be because Aerith somehow knows that Cloud is meant for Tifa since she was the one to awaken his true self to begin with. You can't have played Crisis Core and think that Aerith could have eyes for anyone else than Zack if Zack's alive. And since Zack is 100% alive by the Remakes end (in a parallel timeline) they will find a way for them to meet again. And once Zack explains everything to Aerith she'll be all over him again mark my words. And if she's from the future she will probably know everything that happened beforehand. At least that's what makes the most sense to me.
now i'm crying screw you!
This analysis makes me cry, I hate you
She and Sephiroth are not from the future imo. Both she and Seph have always had abilities to gain knowledge from the lifestream. Only in this “timeline” since the watchmen exists, both of them gained knowledge of future timeline.
Ffs you’re making me cry 😭
@@deadeye2178 It's pretty obvious that the Remake is setting things up for Zack and aerith to finally get their second chance at being together. Aerith probably low key denied Cloud because she knows that she still loves Zack. Even at the scene where she mentions him you can clearly see that she's sad when she talks about him.
Aerith: “You can’t fall in love with me...”
Cloud: “Don’t I get a say in this?”
Zack: “Over my dead body!”
Barret: “Aw hell nah he didn’t!”
haha!!
*LMAO* 😂😂😂
Loool
Why did I automatically read Barret's line in Barret's voice in my mind XD
@@tortiraz I guess I wasn't the only one who read that in Barrets voice.
*"Everyone dies someday"*
This confirms she already knows Zack is dead.
The ending that showed Zack carrying Cloud was either a memory or an alternate timeline, as Clouds mind is still warped with Zacks memories in the remake.
Basically
OG Timeline(Zack dead)
Remake Timeline(Zack dead)
After entering portal in CH.18 (Zack alive)
maybe in the next game, the two timelines would merge
theSilentCartographer it’s not an alternate timeline. Cloud really thought he lived Zach’s life and thought he really was a 1st class soldier after he saw Zach (Cloud’s best friend) died. He was crazed after seeing his own best friend died in his hands.
so with zack alive, aerith will no longer in cloud harem party. and Tifa will be the one. NICE
or maybe its another flashback going explaining what happened before the beginning of the game as a spiritual memory.
Well of course he died he got hit by a million bullet and a shot to the head
What makes the scene at 7:15 so good is that after playing the game, you have the context of why she said that. She is fully aware of what is/might happen to her in the future, since it's implied that she (and Sep it seems) are aware of the future.
Never played the games, how would she and Sep know about the future? And why there are people saying Zack is alive(in an alternativa timeline, maybe idk)? Did he or did he not get Zack's personality? If not why does she say at the end that eve if he thinks his love is real, is not?
I am so sorry for asking all of this, they just kept coming after the first one 😭 I can't for the life of me grasp this points by reading the comments or the wikia. Am grateful to anyone willing to answer.
@@CorHellekin Nojima the writer said she tells him that bc of her fate in the og. Even her reply after him saying he is coming for her proves that she isnot pushing him away like shippers think. Secondly, he only has the soldier persona not Zack’s persona. In the og he says “ i heard stories about Zack but i created my own memories”. Even official books state he just created his own persona. Yet when he regains his full one, he doesn’t change that much.

Notice how he instantly wants to grab her arm after she stops touching him. In the tifa romance he struggles to hug her after a long time.
*Thank u sm for pointing that.*
Also someone pointed out aerith holds clouds hand a lot.. and cloud doesn’t push her away. Also saying ‘ don’t i have a say’ is a tell tale sign of someone that is in love.
I think the tifa/aerith cloud shipping divide is a good thing. It shows a more developed, complicated story with relationships that aren't necessarily predictable or straightforward. It's more interesting.
man the relationships cloud has with the 3 main women who flirts with him is so interesting in the remake, jesse teases him and is like, not subtle at all about her crush on him, and he's baffled by it. tifa and him flirt like an old married couple, yet still dance around the obvious chemistry, and, zacks memories/traits aside, cloud himself becomes more and more attracted to aerith as it goes on, it's just so so good
Two of them have boyfriends, one does not
the tragedy of this month is Jessie's death
I will fight to defend her best girl status I s2g
She's probably alive too tho you can see her headband and gloves next to Biggs when he's asleep.
Cloud hasnt tasted her homemade pizza...
@@NoxIsLight Jesse Biggs died when the plates collapsed The Bigs and Jessie you'll probably see the next game is from an alternate timeline what is not really Jessie and bigs from Avalanche it's an alternate version of them that's what I perceived to be there's no way bigs could have got down from the scaffolding for the whole thing collapsed he was knocked unconscious remember of the loss of blood Jessie got a bomb blow up in the face we saw her die so this is an alternate version of these characters not actually them try to keep in mind Zack survived two that means there's an alternate Zack and Cloud one of the round
@@NoxIsLight alternate timeline Zack Biggs and Jessie the reason for this is Jessie Rasberry cannot be alive she died a scrap in the wounds and third and fourth degree burns Scrap from grenade and most likely internal bleeding so if everything else if Jess is alive it's an alternate timeline because even she couldn't survive that rest in peace Jessie Rasberry
Aerith is the intended love interest for Cloud. The director has all but said this.
Zack’s falling through the church was intentionally copied from “Cloud and Aerith’s “meet-cute” to create ironic familiarity. Zack is overly forward while Aerith is mostly uninterested.
In the original and remake, Aerith is the flirtatious one and offers a date to Cloud. She discuses the future and says she wants to meet ‘the real you’. She asks Cait Sith about her comparability with Cloud, she receives the most characterization.
FF7 original makes it very clear, Zack and Aerith were not very serious. The director has stated this as well.
Aerith will always love Cloud. This is why her death in the original was so impactful.
Real Talk, who has ever had a girl say “you can’t fall in love with me...” and not realized that what they really mean is “fall in love with me!”
Come on this is not difficult.
My favorite comment ever created. Bless your soul for this. I have full light inside me now. Thanks.
I’m glad this gives me full hope they never ruined Cloud and Aerith’s relationship. That’s why it’s my favorite comment ever. I really do mean thank you for this.
Aerith is one of my favorite characters of all time. Just wanted to let people know that. Thank you a lot.

@@DrVarner Don’t spoil anything in the original game yet really but I totally believe deep down that Cloud wanted revenge on Sephiroth. I bet you after knowing what happened with Aerith, he got so furious that he wanted to slice Sephiroth’s little thing off him. That’s what I believe.

Cloud: *MY MONEY*
Watching Zack and Aerith scene and remembering the Crisis Core ending... Damn...
Cloud: an angel?
Aerith: no I'm Aerith.
Me: what's the difference?
Zack said it not Cloud
Poor u. Didn't even know who Zack is
When aerith tells cloud that the love for her wouldnt be real does that means that she knows that clouds memories are mixed up with zacks and maybe she thinks that its influencing him to love her. Just a thought that came while watching this
Something like that. Aerith loves Zack, that is for sure. Cloud has always been in a gray line when it comes to love in my opinion.
Simply put? Yes, Cloud’s and Zack’s memories are mixed so It’s really Zack’s love that is influencing Cloud towards Aerith.
@@Gown1227 True, but he believed himself the first class, therefore he believed Zack's feats were his somehow. His head was a big jumbled mess, that is for sure.
Gown but they are tho
Cloud does not have Zack's personality or memories. Cloud only took Zack's identity as a Soldier, nothing else. Aerith tells Cloud not to love her because she knows she is going to die and Clouds love for her puts him in depression, which we see in advent children. Aerith sees through Clouds Asshole personality, she sees the real Cloud which is why she tells him he will always be Cloud before she dies. Cloud and Aeriths bond was real, it had nothing to do with Zack.
Crisis Core deserves a remake as well.
I think it is getting one. It feels like that's what the sequel game is gearing up to be. It's pretty obvious Zack is going to play a huge role.
Crisis core is going to be combined with remake.
100% agreed
I would be incredibly excited, but so damn sad too....
Agreed, its a great game. Underated imo.
Cloud: I'm coming for you
Aerith: lg that's what you want. Thank you.
it kills me how cloud tried to grab aerith and bring her in before she started fading away 😭😭 he really does care for her, as you can tell in this scene
Aerith died
@@Salmon_betterman Aerith lives
It's sad and tragic on what happened to both Zack and Aerith.. Well at least they get to be together again
Really? With the lifestream, it kind of seems like they return to the planet and become all kinds of new life, and maybe Zack was sucked up into a Mako reactor and now is nothing.
Zack and Cloud survived a huge fight then on their they get intercepted and Zack dies to a bunch of insignificant soldiers...

Best way to *enter* the *FF 7 universe* in the following order and will make sense in the process as the story goes on :
*Before Crisis*
*Crisis core*
*FF 7*
*Dirge Of Cerberus*
( Now if you want to count the movies if *FF 7* as well it would go like this )
*Before Crisis*
*Crisis core*
*Last Order*
*FF 7*
*Advent Children*
*Dirge Of Cerberus*
If you play them in that correct order , not only just the story will make incredible *sense* but you will also gain *the* most best *experience* you ever had with a *video game* . Plus it will become your favourite *FF* game of *all time* . Personally i started with 7 back in *1997* like everyone else and then proceed with *Dirge Of Cerberus* etc. . Because it was *too complicated and it fucked up my head with all this forward and back i did what i had to do and i played the entire FF 7 universe in that correct order* . *Took me a while to get them all but now i have the best collection of FF game i could ever want* !!! 👌👌👌💪💪💪🔥🔥🔥
I'm on the same boat with your list. But I start playing FF7 when I was like 11 or 12 yo. :v LOL ...
Is FF7 the only final fantasy frenchise that has prequels and sequels ?
My first is crisis core in 2011, but before playing crisis core i know ff7 pretty well because i watch the movie advent children and before crisis
I thougt it was dirge of cerberus before advent children.
@@WhoTao00 i guess FF7 the only FF main franchise that has both prequel and sequel.
FF4, 10, 13 have only sequel and you have FF15 with its prequel (DLCs and stuff).
The Tifa scene is sweet and feels right (to me) in some ways, but tbh the Aerith scene here gave me goosebumps because I did not expect it to go this way. She just sucker punches you with it in a way that’s so direct it took me by surprise.
i played the old FF7 in the 2000, my girlfriend left me because decease she told me we should not be together because of her sickness, in 2020 i saw this remake and these dialogs it brings back memories
Sorry for your loss.. she's in a better place now ❤️
I mean if you've seen Advent Children you know Aerith and Zack reunite and Cloud and Tifa rekindle their relationship after the geostigma so why are we all arguing?
Wait whaaaaat they reunite? Omg thats the best thing i ever heard
That is Bull. Tifa will never have him.
She will always be his sister
Yep you are right if you are talking about the original timeline, however in this remake's timeline better believe me it s about cloud and aerith's love story. To be honest she deserves that.
@@juminsalim4146 she got what she deserved in Advent Children. Zack, her true love
Yeah if you’ve seen it, you see how utterly broken Cloud is. So much so he moves into the church and sleeps next to the flowers where he met Aerith. Cloud is a broken man who has lost he woman he loves.
Cloud genuinely loved Aerith. Simple.
*yes.*
Aerith : you cant fall in love with me
Also Aerith : let me give you a flower first time we meet and promise you a date the second time

When cloud tells aerith he's coming for her rescue u can tell he's in love
riiight :-:
It's not that hard to comprehend that aerith did love Zack and she still loves him. But that doesn't mean she was destined to be alone. She saw a little bit of Zack in cloud due to them being soldiers but they are polar opposite. Cloud will never be Zack and isn't trying to copy Zack he's stereotyping a first class soldier by being stoic and recluse. And he doesn't have memories of Zack he's memories are just warped fusing his memories as bystander when Zack was taking care of him to thinking he was that person. This is why he doesn't remember the whole thing or is fuzzy. The guy is has amnesia from trauma.
This! This comment so much. I've ran into so many encounters of people thinking that Cloud is not Cloud and that he is a living incarnation of Zack. That is not the case at all! Cloud is himself, with all the trauma and awkwardness of being a teen still. He was experimented on for years and lost a great portion of his personal growth years. But what makes him an amazing character in the game is his character development through gameplay. As we, the players, grind and gained experience to level up our characters; so too was Cloud growing personally in experience.
The reason she said those words was cuz she was going to die soon and in the Life stream after you die your body is reincarnated two different fragments of the planet so you don't stay there very long so even after she dies she going to be there alone anyways she's the only one of the maintain itself in the LifeStream cuz she's one of the ancients so I heard

With all due respect mate, I don't want to get involved with the silly ship wars, It's petty and childish, it wasn't a thing back 97, and as I said I couldn't care who Cloud ends up with if they decide to change it in remake, I'm fine with it.
How I see it is three individual being drawn to Cloud in some shape and form, I'm not talking about the support characters here. Barret, Yuffie, Red, Vincent, Cid, I am simply referring to Zack, Aerith and Tifa.
Along with Cloud, these four character alone were chosen by Gaia to defeat a evil that threaten the World, unfortunately Aerith and Zack were killed, Cloud and Tifa ended up looking after Marlene and Danzel at Edge.They failed that task in og.
Yeah I get it Tifa and Cloud grew up in the same town they go there seperate ways only to meet up again in Midgar, and it was fate that both Zack and Cloud met Aerith, or just a copied and paste narrative. Zack and Cloud became best friends in what a few days?
And in remake they make it blatantly obvious, that Aerith and Tifa are now, more like best friends.
If that isn't fate that brought these characters together I don't know what is.
Edit: I can easily see in remake changing the character arcs slighty.
Tifa the keeper of the black materia.
Zack right white wing.
Cloud left black wing.
Aerith keeper of the white materia.
Dualism, Ying and Yang.
You may think this is a, really stupid concept, but we are talking about Nomura here, something I can see Nomura adding in a future installment of remake.
To truly defeat Sephiroth you would need two vessel to seperate his core and is mind, he can't be defeated to return to the lifestream.
This is where Zack and Cloud have a much more major part in FF7r. 👍

Aerith’s ribbon is from her childhood in canon that retcon crisis core was debunked.
@Silvana Sanchez .. i remember agaid sad part of CC ... huwwaaaaa...
@Silvana Sanchez I thought it was more like Zack telling her to wear something pink when he gets back from his mission, and I thought he was kidding as well as Aerith finding it silly.

This Hits harder after Rebirth
There's a reason you can date either one or none if them in the original, because it's up to the player to choose if they like one or the other or only like them as a friend - not Cloud. So when someone states he loved Aerith or Tifa more, it means they are the ones that do. Cloud loves whomever you choose for him.
Except in Advent Children he is shown still mopping relentlessly about Aerith, to the point other characters comment on it a couple of times, including Tifa, with whom he lives with and are apparently in a relationship.
The only man for Aerith is zack, when they talk about their eyes all she thought about was zack and that's 100%
I don't want to believe that man
@@ofthecaribbean Cloud x Tifa.
Aerith x Zack. That is how it was then and how it is now.
@@ofthecaribbean You don't have to, but it's the truth. Tifa is the one that awakens clouds real character. When Zack dies(during the original CC and FF7), Cloud absorbed Zack's memories, training, personality, identity almost the same way Itachi transfered his shariginan to Sasuke upon death. Cloud was by all accounts Zack's "Living legacy." This is why Tifa and cloud never spoke in between the point where he left town to become a SOLIDER and to the 5th year where Cloud and Zack are back into town and saves Tifa. Cloud failed the SOLIDER program and was instead a shinra grunt. He was ashamed and embarrassed, thus he never wrote back to Tifa. He suddenly jumps from shinra grunt to a first ranked SOLIDER, because Zack died a first rank. Also why some people have a hard time believe Cloud is a first rank to begin with because you share the same power status as the Elite war trio, Sephiroth, Angeal, and Genesis ( and later Zack after Angeal's death). Now if we include that this is the remake, she is from the future and already knows that Cloud isn't currently the "real" Cloud. Whereas in the original, Aerith saw zack in cloud and had feelings for him up to when Cloud gets closure after her death and she is reunited with Zack in the afterlife.
@@kurokamireaper3761 dam straight bro
Arthur Morgan Even then they can’t get together. Because what about that timelines Aerith?
Nomura stated Zack and Aerith's relationship was platonic while Aerith's feels towards Cloud were romantic due to the parts of Cloud that were truly Cloud and not Zack's mannerisms. Plus, there were still distinct differences between Cloud and Zack before memory restoration such as Cloud being very bashful and anti-social.
Zack and Aerith's relationship was in no way platonic! They are an actual cannon relationship, they were together in Crisis Core before he died he even tells Cloud he was her first love, and Zack loved Aerith so much he was on his way back to her, and told her to wait for him, he just didn't make it back because he died, but they were definitely not platonic! If anyone was platonic it was Cloud and Aerith, they may have grown feelings for each other but her true love was always Zack!
89 love letters from Aerith when Zack was away and Zack trying so hard to get back to her. Yep platonic, and what statement did you read that? Ive never read that before 😂
People are saying that cloud only like aerith because he thinks he is zack. But just based off playing crisis core it seemed only aerith liked zack and he really cared about her but only as a really good friend but im sure there may have been a possibility that their relationship could have developed into something more serious, eg his last memory was of her, if tseng didn't keep the 89 letters and of course if he didn't die. In the final fantasy 7 dismantled book she even says 'although called my first love that doesn't mean we were partically intimate'. in final fantasy 7 dismantle aerith also says
' at first when i met cloud, i believed he was similar to zack. Little actions, the way he spoke....his kindness. But cloud is cloud. I now undoubtledly love cloud much more than zack, but cloud is clueless'. So overall my point is that i think that cloud really did have feelings for aerith
Good to know. Although that just means Aerith and Tifa really were fighting for Cloud, and he ended up a generic harem protagonist 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@なおみ Too bad Cloud could only end up with one of them
@なおみ true
@なおみ mate, i totally agree with you. She did intially like cloud because he was similar to zack but she did move on. Idk why people think that she didn't and plus its so obvious that cloud likes her too.
For those that know the full story, Aerith is right when she says his feelings for her (if you played that way) aren't real, nor can they be.
She never gets to meet "Cloud" as he fully is, just the shadow of Cloud and a lot of "trying to be Zack". The reason Aerith was interested in him was because he reminded her so much of Zack, and that is because that was whom Cloud thought he was "at the time" which is why saying his name caused his mind to nearly break again.
Zack is whom Aerith loves, and the part of Cloud that would have any interest in Aerith, is really Zack.
The only person that knows "the real Cloud" is Tifa. Which is why she was the only one that was capable of pulling his mind back together.
The true ships are Cloud and Tifa, and Zack and Aerith. This game really does a good job touching on all that, which I appreciate.
Perfectly said
i think when Cloud said "Do I get a say in all of this" means it's actually Cloud that said that, not Cloud in Zack persona.
Cloud didn't know Zack was in love with Aerith, so how could impersonating him involve mimicking the feelings. He might not be fully himself but that doesn't change that his feelings are his own. It's not as clear-cut as many make it out to be.
Everybody knows that the real ship is Cloud/Jessie.
We just need to get Cloud to grow a pair and just let it flow.
That stuff gets boring.
Square stated clearly that he just took on zacks first class solider identity.
He does not have his memories.
People do not understand this.
I guess the story is a bit too intelligent for some.
Clouds feelings are always his own feelings.
They should remake crisis core I’d play that
many things must be explained
making Zack alive again could lead to a new franchise with him as lead... probably a "remake" of Crisis Core but different story obviously and different genre... maybe action adventure kind of game.

@@texmexlink he got Tifa
Isayah Jvahn you mean the best girl?
Aerith actually does love Cloud at this time in my opinion. Besides the Aerith he is speaking to in the garden isn't actually her, it is a dream or it is the original timeline Aerith that has already died and returned to the planet appearing to him as she does in Advent Children.
To be honest, I think that Zack and Aerith genuinely love each other. Zack helped her out of the slums, see the skies, made her flower wagons, and more. Aerith looked for Zack during his captive in Shinra manor, she even wrote so many letters for him and asked Tseng to give him personally. When Zack read the letter, he was desperate to go back to Midgar just to see her and when Zack died, I think Aerith got that bad omen. They're connected somehow. Cloud also love Aerith, but I think that she just doesn't return the same feelings to him. He reminded her of Zack, so maybe that's why she's fond of him because Cloud reminds her of the one she actually loved.
My theory is that she is from the original timeline because when they meet she gives cloud the flower because it was a special customer and she said it was for lovers reuniting. And she knows that cloud is acting like zack but will change. Though she doesn't know about the new Sephiroth yet that ends up causing them destroying the Destiny of the original where she has a chance to live. Because they destroyed the whispers there is nothing making them follow the story of the original, which is what Sephiroth wanted she he could have a chance at winning, but also created new timelines that don't follow the story. Which is why zack is seen as alive, but is in a different timeline. So this story might be completely different, or have some differences but possibly Aerith lives.
damn, if they dont give me a chance to rescue aerith this time, im gonna bomb the square-enix mainbuilding besides the maco reaktor!
@Thomas Smyth i would 100% support it. its an alternate timeline, so its possible.
@Thomas Smyth i think it could be canon in a different timeline, just not in the original. why shouldnt things be able to change. For me there is no reason on why not, also i would bring back all members of avalance. with the knowledge of how bad the other timeline went, we could finally do better. i dont know why i feel this way, but thats how i do ^^
@Thomas Smyth well, i think we can agree, that people like or appreciate different think. your opinion is valid. i dont think it would piss off the fanbase, as could and tifa would still find together. but in the end, this is just my opinion and iam happy to accept that everybody likes something else :) we will see whats gonna happen.
Bro I havent played Crisis Core in like 10 years... yet this video is emotionally WRECKING me rn my lawd
People really don't understand the Ff7 storyline. People need to realise that Cloud doesn't have Zack's memories or his personality at all. If he did, you would get Cheerful Cloud and not Asshole Cloud. Cloud simply took Zack's identity as a Soldier and made himself Zack in only the moments he was there for. Cloud knows nothing else about Zacks life. Aerith also doesn't fall for Cloud because of Zack but because she sees past his Asshole personality, she sees the real Cloud before anyone else does which is why he changes after meeting her. That's Cloud and Aerith's bond. It had nothing to do with Zack at all. Zack and Aerith had their own bond and Cloud and Aerith have their own bond. Don't confuse it to make your ships more real.
I know, the story seems to be too complicated for some people.
Or they want to talk Down the blond clerith have for their ship (mostly clotis).
They can all thank aerith for cracking that walnut called cloud strife.
She just Sees right through his behaviour and what a wonderful man he is.
And with her he can be weak as well.
For tifa he always has to be the hero

When see proceeds to touch his face that moment broke me... for reasons that torment me till this day...life sucks
Don't get me wrong that would be a beautiful relationship but I rather for cloud to go with Tifa then her
Definitely Cloud and Tifa. I think it’s certainly cannon that there was something between Cloud and Aerith, but what it would have lead to ends up forever unresolved with her death.
There is no canon relationship. Depends on ur taste. Respect ur opinion though.
Aerith : But whatever happens, you can't fall in love with me.
Me : Of course he won't. Sepiroth's sword will.
I'm pretty sure, after seeing the ending of this game, aerith won't die.
@P L if zack lives, aerith won't die. The ending seems to give the message that the fate could be changed. It will be another story. "The uknown journey will continue"
Fico Secco she’s gonna die chief
@Fico Secco the more I think about it, I think either her or Tifa are gonna die in this whole reboot. The creators of this remade series basically just told us that some people we know that died in the original may end up surviving now (such as Zack Fair), but it also conversely means the ones that were meant to survive in the original could end up dying now too.
Also, it should be pointed out that just because Zack might have survived past his original death doesn’t necessarily mean that he won’t still die at a later time (his cells were degrading by the end of Crisis Core). So the same could be similar to what will happen to Aerith now. She might survive longer than she was originally meant to or she might just die in the same way anyways (but I do wonder how Zack might handle that if he was alive and saw it occur).
@@giangiannigiannini4836 I'm pretty she will die by the end of the game, but maybe in a different way. That scene was so empowering in the original FF7 that it'll be ridiculous if they decided to drop Aerith's death from the story.
*Zack and Aerith* the best couple in the entire *FF franchise* . Believe it or not *Zack* was the only one who understood and stand by *Aerith* more then anyone else !
You clearly didn't play the original game to say that
@@SuperHaoken I did, and I still like Zack more than Cloud. You're just blinded by nostalgia and clerith uwu bullshit.
Tbh I like Zidane and Garnet/Dagger too.
@@shu830 i think you are the one blinded by your love for crisis core and Zack. Think about it: from the moment he met her to her death, Cloud has always been closed to Aerith. Even death did not do them a part. Just watch Advent children. They are bounded beyond death. He risked his life to save her from Shinra, from sephirot too (in vain). and he spent more time with her than Zack did (due to his job). Their date in the gold saucer shows that Aerith (if the player decide to charm her) fall in love for cloud and look for the "real Cloud".
I don't deny she used to love Zack and missed him, but her heart belongs to Cloud. Advent Children shows that.
Let’s just say, i liked cloud on original ff7, but when I played crisis core, i LOVED zack even more!!!!
Honestly after Crisis Core I can’t accept Cloud and Aerith. My boy Zack is the only one for her, he literally died trying to get to her (and saving Cloud ofc) and she waited so long for him. I’m convinced that when she died they both reunited. Their love story just felt more real?
Watched the ending of advent children yet? If not go watch FF7 Advent Children, you'll cry at the very end, of joy of course.
@@febrianajiprasetya8452 Really? Okay I’ll go watch it, been postponing after Crisis Core and I reallly need some tears of joy after that lol
@@nicolaberry9550 believe me you will lol, I know cause I always do every time I rewatched the whole movie till the ending
Why does everyone think that Cloud is Zack? Did it say anywhere in the original or crisis core that it's true, because I don't remember that being so. Cloud is his own person, he idolizes Zack, but he's not *him*, so Clouds feelings for Aerith are his own.
In my opinion, I think what Aerith meant by "Don't fall in love with me" was because she knew what was gonna happen to her and didn't want him becoming too attached. I have a feeling that the Aerith in this remake knows about the future somehow.
Ye bro you are so right because the aerith that come to this cloud's dream scene is the aerith from the lifestream in the ff ori ver. Just the same as this sequel's sepiroth
Thats right, in the OG, it's stated that Cloud created his own memories and the Ultimania also confirmed that Aerith line in the dream is to save Cloud the pain of losing her.
5:02 her voice 🙁
Cloud falling for Aerith makes more sense in terms of a writing perspective. It gives Cloud more character development. I have no horse in this 'shipping wars', I'm just a screenwriting fanatic.
No really if you look at disc two
One of Cloud's reason for becoming a Soldier was to impress and and be stronger to protect Tifa.
But it's weird that Cloud & Aerith doesn't have any big/touching moments after this dream scene when they rescued her. It's almost like this dream didn't exist. Aerith and Tifa shared a special moment instead.
This 'dont fall in love with me' line kind of came out of nowhere. Since they just met for like 2 days i think? I can understand if they developed a slight crush/attraction for each other. But love? Nope. Too damn early for that.
That's how i see it.
You need to improve your screenwriting if you think this is good character development for Cloud.
Aerith will always love Zack
It’s so sad the story of Zack and cloud, playing Final Fantasy VII remeber me the scene of Zack’s Death and i filled up my hearth whit honor 😢
(Spoilers): Aerith in the FF7 remake scene in the garden was the OG Aerith in the OG storyline. She's dead and is part of the lifestream. The reason why she tells Cloud to not fall in love with her is because she knew that she would die and it will cause Cloud to get hurt. Her death in the OG timeline was very abrupt and that's why she appeared in Cloud's dream now to say that she values the memories she had with him. In the end of the FF7 Remake, at the crossroads, Aerith mentioned that she was hesitating to fight destiny, she also warns that if they fight destiny and win, they will be changed forever. It will be interesting to see in Part 2 of FF7 Remake if they will keep Aerith alive. It will be cool if they create two alternate versions for the fans, one that stays true to the OG story, and one where Aerith is alive. About Zack surviving the end of FF7 Remake, it was clearly shown that it is a different timeline. So there is a timeline where Zack will fulfill her promise to see Aerith again and Cloud not being Cloud cause Zack is still alive. Basically, the arbiter of fate was the one keeping the timeline similar to the OG story, but with the final battle and them destroying the whispers, it is now unknown what will happen. This is also what Sephiroth wants, as he know that in the OG story, he wouldn't win.
Holy shit you just blew my mind
Does one thing you're forgetting now that we're one Zack from an alternate timeline and two Aerith one from the present timeline and one in the alternate timeline how comes Paradox headache
Lol wtf is with people thinking Zack has somehow possessed Cloud's mind. No personality transplant has taken place. Cloud is Cloud, he's just utterly broken by Hojo's experiment. It's with Zack's help he survived and the one way he manages to pull himself back together was through Zack's stories about being a SOLDIER and the adventures he went on which blended inside Cloud's fuzzy mind containing his own past memories and his own desires of wanting to be a SOLDIER. Zack was pretty much everything Cloud wanted to be; open, brave and capable. Cloud was ashamed about failing to fulfil his dream and promise to Tifa, then combined with events that took place in Nibelheim, he created this fragile persona in order to basically function.
This has nothing to do with any feelings Cloud develops for Aerith. Zack hasn't magically transported his soul into Cloud's body. Cloud's/Aerith's relationship is a thing that occurs from the first time they meet onward, it doesn't negate this. What DOES affect their relationship is Aerith's initial responses too him. He's clearly similar to Zack, same clothes, same sword, similar eyes, fell out of the sky etc. But despite being modelled after Zack in many ways, Cloud is still distinctly different than Zack because he's Cloud. It's all an act and Aerith see's through him immediately and completely throws him off guard. This is when we start to see Cloud open up, she constantly puts him off balance, and he can't rely on the behavioural script he's created in his fragile mental state.
As for where they're going in Remake regarding the "Don't fall in love with me, it's not real." It's likely to do with fate, I'd bet that it's because Aerith appears to be aware of what's happening and what awaits her. She doesn't want him to fall in love with her because she knows what's about to happen will destroy him. Also the night sequence isn't a "dream" it's Aerith communicating with him through the life stream, Tifa also says the same the next morning. She's communicating with them from Hojo's lab, it's just easier for her at that point to make it seem like it's a dream (remember she's still holding secrets about herself from them.) Look at this video for extra clarity:

Aerith is being led by fate which ultimately leads to her sacrifice, she feels it in the original but couldn't see the Whispers. In Remake, she CAN see the Whispers, and we literally destroy them at the end of Remake so now the future, as Aerith says, is unknown. No one knows the outcome now, it's scary and exciting, but please don't make nonsense up about the original game.
The story is brilliant. Both Tifa and Aerith have distinctly different roles but both have tragic histories. Tifa is earnest and grounded (childhood friend and girl nextdoor), whereas Aerith is fatefully tragic and tied to the greater story. Even though I'm an Aerith fan, for Cloud's sake he's probably better off with Tifa. Aerith's story is so horribly tragic and lonely I'm wondering what they're going to do with it in the future now that things are changing. I just hope they don't start using alternate reality cross-over nonsense with Zack because it'll take away his significance in the story and destroy the emotional weight it carries.
Sorry to say but the alternate timeline or parallel world might happen in Part 2 which Zack might have a role in it.
Damn, the original graphic. I know it's 1997, but man glad I live in an era where graphic is beautiful now.
Still Clerith the way she made him break his walls made me ship them more... cloud did drag and talked to flowers and learned the art of high fiving like awwww
For those who played at ff7CC this remake is really good. The respect of Zack
Cloud and aerith the best together😍
Actually, it's *ZACK* and Aerith who are the best together. Cloud only loves Tifa.
Nou for me Cloud and aerith
@@TonyKanameKuran Well they probably were lovers in the original FF7 timeline. This is a Sequel, Square should of just called it FF7-2.
@@TonyKanameKuran you're so desperate. Cloud and aerith love each other...like in the OG. Zack is a marginal character of ff7
Aerith tells Cloud not to fall in love with her because she knew that she was eventually going to die. So she warns Cloud not to get too attached to her so he won't have to suffer (which we all know he did anyway). Also, Aerith is equally attached to Cloud as well and part of it is because he reminds her of Zack.
