Aerith is such a beautiful character. she's acting "weird", as Cloud says, bc she knows she only has this little bit of time left and she wants to spend it having fun with him, but he thinks it's just a normal day. you can see how happy she is when he says "next time" because it means he would spend another day on a silly date with her. she thanks him for all he has done to change her life, then says goodbye and prepares herself to be the hero for him and the world, even if it costs her that next time with Cloud. it's so sweet and innocent, in the same way the original game was in these moments. 🎀💚 all my love today to Square Enix for a beautiful story twice.
Yes...I don't know if I like everything about the changes, but I agree with you, it's like they tried to pay respects to their relationship, like how would Aerith act if she could live those moments again, it's kinda beautiful and sad.
Right?? And if I understand the ending to this game correctly, she sacrificed herself to Sephiroth *twice.* Once here, and again in the main timeline. Ugh, I love her so much. I really want her to finally get a happy ending.
Does Sephiroth actually end her here, though? He usually always has his sword drawn whenever he's about to do his villain thing. Bro is just casually strutting in this time around. Then again he can manifest masamune into existence in 0.1 sec so I'm probably overthinking it
And then the final boss happens and it’s like “You saw it here folks. Aerith is back from the dead and she is angry! Sephiroth will have his hands full dealing with these two.”
*"Moral of the story" Don't take the little things in life for granted especially with the ones you spend time with, because time is precious* so make it count
Aerith says “you can’t fall in love with me,” but I think she told herself that. She didn’t want Cloud to suffer because of her death, so she pushed him away. 😢 oh, Aerith. You’re not selfish at all.
This. I know it’s said by Toriyama in a staff Q&A that Aerith’s plea to Cloud is against what she truly feels inside, but in her mind she’s sparing him the heartache by pushing him away. It’s too late for that, Aerith cuz he’s locked in like a puppy dog 😭😭😭
@@jenniferedwardson7263 the complete version of "No Promises To Keep" highlights all the scenes when Aerith is trying so hard to push Cloud away. She has a duty that only she could do, she wants to make a safe world for Cloud. Even if it costs her life.
I feel that Cloud is the only person that she sees Aerith in her most vulnerable moment. That's why shes open to him. And for Aerith to give Cloud the holy materia means alot: its the key to control the whispers and to stop the meteor. I love Cloti, but I will always love how beautiful the writing is for Aerith and Cloud. Its their trust for each other and their determination to end Sephiroth.
Regardless of who you ship, whether it's Cloud and Aerith, Cloud and Tifa, or Barret and Cloud, ALL of these people come to care and love each other very deeply.
"Our spot", that is a No Promises to Keep reference and NPTK as the background song. Aerith wanted to spend some time with Cloud before THAT happens, so as the song says, I'll believe in the chance of Cloud and Aerith finding each other at their spot. "Till the day That we meet again At our place Just let me believe In the chance Know that you'll take my hand And never let me go"
in the japanese dialogue cloud says instead of our spot,it was easy, he says "the place i have memories,it was easy". "i dont have many memories," then aerith interject by saying," then make one from here" he replies" that is what i meant".its when aerith realize he likes her. "cloud its nice to hear your feelings"
I knew she loved him more than just friends, she really “likes” him, you can see how much she has suffered and she just wants clouds comfort, she wants to be with him, but she doesn’t want to hurt him, wished cloud was more open to her and I’m sure he wants to, but she did tell him not to fall in love with her 😪 man this stings right in the feels
She didn’t. She admits plainly, even after this scene, that she doesn’t know (can’t find) the real Cloud. What did she say after that? “Even if you think you have, it’s not real.” Because on both sides, it isn’t. Cloud is influenced by Zach’s memories (which he straight up told Cloud about Aerith) and Aerith likes Cloud because he’s like Zach. She, in this game, never meets the real Cloud. We still haven’t either.
@@moonmoon2479 but she knows that’s not Cloud’s personality and she still loves him, even at the gold saucer she told him she knows he’s not Zack, and that’s ok, because she wants to be with cloud, despite trying so hard to find him, Aerith knows there’s a different cloud and she loves him anyway
@@moonmoon2479Um have you played the game at all? The only memories that Cloud has that came from Zack is him being a Soldier. Otherwise, Cloud's personality and feelings are not influenced by Zack. If that's the case then Cloud would also care for Zack's parents but he doesn't right? Also, Aerith has feelings for Cloud. Marlene told Zack that Aerith likes Cloud and heck even Zack accepted it. At the Gold Saucer date Aerith stated that Cloud is not Zack and that's okay because she loves Cloud. Zack is Aerith's first love but she moved on from that especially when she sent a lot of letters and have not received a single reply from Zack. In the end, Cloud likes Aerith and Aerith likes Cloud. It's only the circumstances that the two of them are embroiled with that made them a bittersweet couple.
@@moonmoon2479 those are not Zack's memories. In OG, it is revealed that Cloud is there in the incident but as a trooper, so it is still his memories. What he remembers in Nibelheim is still his memories but a bit altered because Cloud wants to create a new persona for himself and used Zack's identity rank as first class soldier. But his memories are still his, he still remembers Tifa but again, a bit altered because it is also revealed while they are childhood friends, they were NEVER actually close. FF7 is about identity. Sephiroth became weird after finding out his identity as "son" of Jenova. Red XIII is hiding his identity so the team won't treat him as a dog. Barret is a hypocrite because his real past identity is a shinra believer (he sold his town) despite saying how much he hates Shinra and so on...
@@gamerforlife3946 Also, Sephiroth tried to sabotage himself by saying "7 seconds till the end... But what will you do with them?" (it takes 7 seconds for Sephiroth to kill Aerith) If he'll somehow manage to remember who he once was then there's still hope (Cloud was responsible for creating the new timeline after all). AC Cloud was also capable of handling Sephiroth on his own, so...
Guysss this is OG Aerith that’s why he says “this isn’t you”: this isn’t the Aerith that this particular Cloud knows and that’s why he finds she’s acting weird! this is the same Aerith as in Cloud’s resolution scene. That’s why she says “I’m always putting my foot in my mouth, when will I ever learn?” she’s referring to when she told cloud not to fall in love but he does, just like now he has to look up because she told him not to. Sephiroth even says “so this is where you’ve been hiding?” cause he knows her from OG and he’s like ah hah, found ya! I cried and screamed so so much my mom was COMCERNED
in the japanese dialogue cloud says instead of our spot,it was easy, he says "the place i have memories,it was easy". "i dont have many memories," then aerith interject by saying," then make one from here" he replies" that is what i meant".its when aerith realize he likes her. "cloud its nice to hear your feelings"
The way they interlaced fingers when they held hands!! 😭💕 It’s a direct callback to their Gondola date! That would make the date the most accurate and correct choice to work story-wise.
There is always next time. Or you could say, there is no certainty that there WON'T be a next time. Even OG Cloud and Aerith were able to see each other again so even though Aerith tried pushing Cloud away, if there is ANY option of crossing obstacles to find her, he would definitely take it, and Tifa would probably be the first to say "Let's do it!" Tifa and Aerith are so well written that I don't even see a competition anymore for Cloud. Maybe because Tifa thought he was all sown up and beholden to her because they are friends, but if Aerith can be brought back, then Tifa would take it herself. The only time I remember her getting really defensive was in the sewers when she questioned who Aerith was to Cloud. Now they are like blood sisters and it crushed Tifa losing Aerith just like Jessie all over again. Too many people trying to cheapen this so called love triangle. The dynamic between these three transcends any generic "catty" competition between two girls for the same guy.
For anyone wondering what was happening in this scene; Cloud is a no bullshlt type of guy he excels in combat situation but in social situations he sorta comes out short😅He doesn't play games but they always tend to find him. He didn't understand at the time that this was Aerith's last moment with Cloud, she wanted to spend the last few moments with him and confess her genuine feelings for him so she created a "mind space or mental plain" where she had the power to do that so she created a dream-like scenario where they both went on a date, clueless to Cloud.😂
Gonna say it once. Cloud and Aerith have a good chemistry. Same with Cloud and Tifa. Personally, both these female characters are amazing. One signifies innocence while the other signifies maturity. There are not a lot of situations where I could accept either pairing, but this... is one of them. CloTi and ClErith fans... don't destroy this masterpiece like how the ship wars destroyed Naruto. Really... treasure this game and the pairings.
@@kaulciferdarkness8323 I kinda knew that because her dying in the original is a BIG deal, but... Personally, couldn't care about the end results. The story, characters, mechanics, etc. are fantastic! Still, CloTi is really good, but ClErith is too. So yeah... I just lament not having a PS5😭 Personally, GOTY!!! Although, chances are skewed because if ClErith had a similar scene... GOTY was a definite. Still, the game is too fun to not enjoy because of pairings.
@@kaulciferdarkness8323 She actually is not in the other timeline. So even then you are taking only ship as canon when every romance scene is optional technically
@@gamerforlife3946 you are talking like the game is real life you stupid shithead! Hundred of people wrote this fantasy game! The fact that they changed only the tifa date to a scene where they kiss! Show that they intend to give Cloud and tifa a future! Stop being a fucking nerd and stop pretend the story has any power
Imagine Cloud in Part 3 when he finally figures out everything. He's already a complete mess at the ending of Part 2. It's supposed to make you feel regretful but sheesh.
@@ErenDenizMert Marlene told Zack to wake Cloud 2 so he can save Aerith 2. As for Cloud 1 saving Aerith 1, it's too late. He literally can't process her leaving him, he's broken completely (Tifa and Barret now look at him like he's a martian) and he can see Aerith next to him like a spirit. Him facing the truth about her, her feelings and his own feelings is going to be brutal.
@@leostenbuck4194 Interesting. But then theres the whole part of converging timelines... so im on copium that this somehow brings aerith back. Also could it be that shes next to him due the lifestream and not his little schizophrenia attack?
It was confusing to me, lol. Lgl Then again I have been extremely sick, can't eat. Sleep deprived as well whenever I saw the ending and my brain was about as empty as my stomach. But I came back and watched it later so all is good....sorta? Still peeved the way they have nerfed Cid so much from cursing and smoking but I well
Cloud and Aerith are soulmates. They're going to have their happy ending finally, I just know it. He wouldn't be searching for her in every universe if she wasn't his other half. 💕
I mean, what’s the point of having these lyrics and the theme of defying fate if it’s just gonna end the same way again? Shine bright once more, guide me to you This time, I will never let you go In the chance that you’ll come take my hand, and never let me go Take my hand and believe we can be… together evermore 😢😭 THEY ARE NEVER BEATING THE SOULMATES ALLEGATIONS 💘
“Whatever happens, don’t blame yourself.” “This isn’t about me, though. It’s about saving the world…and you.” “Whatever happens, you can’t fall in love with me.” Aerith’s lines consistently rip my heart out.
Cant believe folk lied about this scene (in leaks) saying Cloud/Aerith didnt care that much while posting a few screens from it. Sweet release to see it was mostly fabricated, very bittersweet final moment.
Mannn. It's Aerith's dream to spend her time with Cloud in Sector 5. I really enjoyed their moments there in the Remake, so this is really bittersweet for meT^T❤. I love these two but they can't seem to get their happy ending :'
Some of the best Final Fantasy couples are those that end in tragedy. It’s Square Enix’s specialty and I both love and hate them for it lol! But their tragic romances are also they’re best written 🥰 Cloud x Aerith and Tidus x Yuna are peak romance writing
@@zackfair6791 Not sure how long it’s been since you played the game, but he had several women after him. There’s even the pseudo-love triangle with him, Yuna and, Rikku. Even Lulu had an interest in him. But I do agree, they were more like Jessie in the sense that there wasn’t much competition. FF7 is really the most ambiguous of the Love Triangles in Final Fantasy as a whole. The devs most likely will never just come out and confirm which side is endgame. Which I’m fine with to be honest. I like the fact that player’s can choose and make their own decisions.
@@Msis03 Not really. There was nothing in 10 that is anywhere close to the romance stuff in 7. It seemed like they initially planned to have romance choices in 10 but it got scrapped mid development. And so what we are left with is Rikku/Lulu riding behind Tidus on a snowmobile, and a conversation with him in Guadosalam. Nothing terribly remarkable there. I think the love triangle thing is lame. I don't care who they pick i just wish they would choose a canon love interest for Cloud. I would be fine with player choice IF they had similar scenes for all the women in the story. So for example if Tidus and Rikku had a optional teary farewell ending in 10 instead of just Tidus and Yuna.
@@zackfair6791 oh agreed! Of course it’s not on the same level or had player choice options, just that there were multiple romances teased, whether through flirtation or one-sided, as I said, it’s like how they did Jessie. But I’m really not talking about harems or love triangles or anything. Just that the tragic love story of Tidus x Yuna is very similar to Cloud x Aerith’s. I just realize how much Square likes their tragic romances. You can even include Noctis x Luna, though I don’t think those two had that strong of writing. Even Clive x Jill ended bittersweetly.
@@Msis03 It's still not quite the same as Jessie imo. She seems to be genuinely interested in Cloud. Whereas the best Tidus can get is "maybe" from Rikku and Lulu. Rikku says "Maybe someday" and Lulu's response is "I'll add you to the list."
Aerith found a way a to bring both herself and Cloud’s souls into the other timeline where Zack is alive, albeit temporarily. How else do you explain why our Cloud with his memories of the original timeline, wakes up in the same wheelchair and bedroom where Zack left him in the other timeline? And also, Marlene in the other timeline warns Zack then when Aerith in this timeline wakes up, Sephiroth will try to kill her, which is what he tries to do when he enters the church here. Sephiroth very clearly has the ability to exist in multiple timelines at once, like a bizarre anomaly. But Aerith seems to only be able to have her waking consciousness in one body at a time. Perhaps by her dying for good in the current timeline she ‘wakes up’ for good in Zack’s timeline.
Well Cloud is capable of being in other timelines, worlds whatever you call it, but he doesn't have memories (that's just a theory tho). Like in Morbius if I'm not mistaken Cloud said by himself that he doesn't remember anything except some weird bright light (memories of Aerith) and he decides to create a new timeline where everything can be changed for better.
Not all the Clotis here leaving comments on about their own ship. If you guys were so happy and confident with Cloti, why you coming in here trying to justify your ship is Endgame?
@@DelicateRosexo watching that whole date, I get why lol, Cloud barely smiled, and they kissed then couldn’t look at each other after. No wonder they got major insecurities! If Cloti were more interesting I’d ship it more. I think it’s cute, but man the CT fans are the worst so I lay low with it.
@@Msis03 Yeah like I always felt there was a big lack of connection with Tifa compared to Aerith (well the lifestream and highwind scenes were nice tho Ill admit) But even so if he does end up with Tifa if Aerith is truly dead like its whatever, tragic but by the end if AC is still the true ending at least Cloud is happy.
they just know the entire kiss scene is 100% fanservice. it's so OOC for Cloud's personality, and it came literally out of nowhere right after talk about Aerith🙄 I kinda understand them, honestly. I'm clerith with 99,9% of my heart but that 0,1% is also sad for zerith bc now it's too obvious clerith is only canon
@@alwaysloctis Reckon it’s deliberately OOC? Fits with the whole Zack persona. I just don’t see him being all suave and forward like that… even though, his face after pulling Tifa in said: 😐
Straight up. The romance scene and this scene solidifies that fact. Cloud and Tifa's scene felt too superficial. He was the cool badass who said a one liner and kissed her as the fireworks went off. Even taking into account Cloud personality at this point in the story, it doesn't flow right at all. But with Aerith he is truly vulnerable and wants to protect her above all else. He speaks to her as if he wants to see the next day and is looking towards the future positively because she would be in it with him, despite the crazy life and death circumstances they are in, rather than only feeling he just has the present with her. He speaks of "next time" and "tomorrow" because his love with Aerith is a married couple type of love.
She love him, more than anyone. She spent a little time left of her to a date with Cloud, to do the thing they never get a chance to do, and say the thing she never get a chance to say: “I really like you Cloud. Thank you- for everything….”
@@Wolf-Raven I see copium from you guys since you don’t know that Aerith is alive and Cloud can save her as Marlene said. And go crying back to your optional ship lol
I see so many comment arguing about cloud love tifa or aerith? I want to say It's rpg role play game guys, we are cloud in this game the main character. so you can choose your girlfriend in this game you can ship with anyone you love in this game and that's it
Facts: Aerith plays Rosa in 4 of the 6 dates & is Rosa in the credits & makes the most sense narratively & Aerith’s date has been default & canon since 1997
Cloti fans bragging about Tifa date with Cloud, lol for one Tifa lied to Cloud, two Cloud was asking about Aerith and wondering about her during their date, he is thinking of another woman while he is with Tifa and Clotis are proud, lol and if Tifa told the truth would have Cloud kissed her and don't forget the date is optional and he looked sad
@@mochaeko so close! We get a kiss between two childhood friends who have always been into eachother. The game not being as centered around them doesn’t make them any less canon🥰
@@mochaeko If you think THE Cloud Strife is the type to pity kiss someone he’s not in love with, especially after being rejected by Aerith as you say, then I’ll gladly end this conversation now
This video is non-romanced Aerith. Aerith's answer really depends if you romance her or not - she confirms your relationship if you're only friends or someone with mutual feelings with. I see a lot of people confused with this that's why there's shipping wars lol the translator had a hard time translating the word "Suki" in JP. It literally meant I like you or I love you, hence the translation. Now depending if Aerith is romanced, Cloud's answer when Aerith asks him "Next time?" is different. It may seem small but in context, Cloud says "Yeah, Next time" in JP "Yeah as friends". The official translation was "I mean. Why not?". (this video) If you romanced Aerith, Cloud says in JP dub "Mochiron" which is also hard to translate like "Suki", but in the context it means "I always have time for you. of course." The official translation was "Yeah. Next time." It really depends on the players choices.
I prefer Cloud with Aerith or at least make Aerith to live.Everyone has a story line they love which is not about selfish or keeping the original story intact, it is about we all expecting things good in these days. Now is no longer 1997 the value, the mindset and global environment totally different. people need more positive and faith for good. Multi ending in part 3 would be more appreciated than just let the player day dreaming in the DLC.
Can't be. Zack is in a different time line there. We saw it, cause the stamp bags were different than the stamp johnny had. The only reason johnny was there, was just to show the players the stamp he's holding. The devs are playing with us and want us to pay attention
That would make sense. Just like Noctis and Luna reunited in the afterlife. King and Queen of the light. Cloud and Aerith might become the emperor and empress in the lifestream as caith sith prediction. Maybe.
2:46 Guys I don’t think you understand how adorable she is. She’s trying to come across as intimidating here but instead it’s literally just the most adorable thing I’ve ever seen 😂
@@EvelynL.1112 I am rooting for Zack and Tifa because they seems like a good match in their personalities 😅 Besides Zack is the kind of guy Tifa is looking for
@@pix00l I agree. Also in the Kalm flashback, Tifa actually saves Zack's back when an enemy is about to attack him. I think they bring out the best in each other.
Now, I have seen both Tifa and Aerith dating scene. I find both scenes are so beautiful that I feel unfair if I choose one of them, so I prefer Cloud X Barrett scene. You all know if Cloud given a chance to do polygamy, he will never hesitates to take both of them 🤣🤣🤣. However, I m more interested with Tifa and Aerith friendship, a friendship that does not last long enough, ended with Aerith death but for me far more valuable compare to Clerith and Cloti shipping.
Was it really that hard to upload the high affinity cutscene aka the canon one? You put all the effort into playing/recording and you lazily stuck with the shitty cutscene that the Devs haphazardly put together? C'mon man.
I hate ships, why can't people just enjoy the game without starting unnecessary fights? All the moments with Cloud and each character are beautiful, reading the comments just makes me resent certain characters. I remember in 1997 when people just talked about how wonderful the game was and ships didn't exist.
Yeah, stupid shippers keep harassing each other just because both sides have a different preference. People need to learn that people have DIFFERENT OPINIONS and DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES.
@@LodyPolskieNarodowe omg I'm 100% sure people who love tifa bcos of her "boobs and the top" don't even ship her with cloud, that's a really toxic comment u know 💀
Yeah, me too. I thought something was happening, it's kinda weird to add that lmao. I'm guessing it's probably just aerith being excited or something haha.
For me it had always been Cloud x Aerith since 1997 sadly Aerith dies so it was an impossible love, that's where Cloud x Tifa started, now I really hope in this story Cloud and Aerith end together finally but in case is not possible it's okay for me if he ends with Tifa, I really like this Tifa FROM remake and Rebirth
@@tdspkhype3042 yeah. Cause you guys on the tifa cloud vid as well, I’m here because I want to see if cloud also kiss aerith. But oh boy too bad. He didn’t.. that’s the only reason I’m here delulu. 😂
My theory is that this is the Aerith who has already died at the Forgotten City altar. She's able to live on through the lifestream and communicate to Cloud through dream worlds she can conjure. The "you can't fall in love with me" dream from Remake and this scene both take place in the same dream reality which is shown by both scenes having odd phenomena in the sky and Aerith being surrounded by green lifestream in Remake, she has already died to Sephiroth. She's possibly able to create this dream world whilst she's asleep in Zack's timeline but she cannot wake up as Sephiroth will instantly be able to find what world she's broadcasting in and kill her making her less powerful and unable to pass on the white materia to Cloud here. This is her final goodbye to Cloud ever as once she hands over the materia to Cloud her duty is done and Sephiroth tracks her down (Sephiroth is able to see these dreams through Cloud's eyes due to their connection so the second she starts broadcasting the clock is ticking to when Sephiroth will track her down). She decides to spend one last good day with him in Sector 5 before sending him back with the white materia and ensuring that past her can cast Holy at the Forgotten City. Sephiroth comes through the door and kills her (possibly killing her in Zack's timeline where she is projecting this from as well) and she returns to the lifestream once more but unable to communicate directly via dreams to Cloud ever again. This is why the "next time" line breaks her and why everyone is talking about running out of time, this is her dream world and the NPCs know this is her last day with Cloud.
this is missing the part where cloud wants to take photos with aerith and he takes her hand again before they go to the church😭 anyway, i love these two soulmates. i’m so happy with the ending😭
@@moonmoon2479 ??? it doesn't. if you're referring to the "funeral" comment, it's because aerith looked sad since she knows she's doomed and all the npcs were a little ominous because they're in a dying world. what matters is that cloud wanted to take those photos and clearly liked being on that date with her despite the fact he was confused about her behavior but you guys sure love to ignore context!
it's a shame this isn't the max affinity aerith scene. at 7:02 there's a different response for cloud where he smiles back and says 'yeah next time' and then Aerith acts all giddy
Aerith is such a beautiful character. she's acting "weird", as Cloud says, bc she knows she only has this little bit of time left and she wants to spend it having fun with him, but he thinks it's just a normal day. you can see how happy she is when he says "next time" because it means he would spend another day on a silly date with her. she thanks him for all he has done to change her life, then says goodbye and prepares herself to be the hero for him and the world, even if it costs her that next time with Cloud. it's so sweet and innocent, in the same way the original game was in these moments. 🎀💚 all my love today to Square Enix for a beautiful story twice.
Yes...I don't know if I like everything about the changes, but I agree with you, it's like they tried to pay respects to their relationship, like how would Aerith act if she could live those moments again, it's kinda beautiful and sad.
In japanese saying "Thank you" to someone has a deeper meaning
Right?? And if I understand the ending to this game correctly, she sacrificed herself to Sephiroth *twice.* Once here, and again in the main timeline. Ugh, I love her so much. I really want her to finally get a happy ending.

Does Sephiroth actually end her here, though? He usually always has his sword drawn whenever he's about to do his villain thing. Bro is just casually strutting in this time around. Then again he can manifest masamune into existence in 0.1 sec so I'm probably overthinking it

Good comment
Regardless of who you ship, whether it's Cloud and Aerith, Cloud and Tifa, or Barret and Cloud, ALL of these people come to care and love each other very deeply.
I don't give a crap about vapid fanboy and fangirl ships. I care about couplings that make the most sense for a narrative.
"I will miss these moments", "If only we all had one more time, am I right?" - then camera spans to the sky...and the ending of this scene, Damn.
"Our spot", that is a No Promises to Keep reference and NPTK as the background song. Aerith wanted to spend some time with Cloud before THAT happens, so as the song says, I'll believe in the chance of Cloud and Aerith finding each other at their spot.
"Till the day
That we meet again
At our place
Just let me believe
In the chance
Know that you'll take my hand
And never let me go"

The way Cloud says she “acts weird” is because he feels something’s off… it’s her way to say goodbye with a final date… 😢

And sephiroth came at the same time in the stairs and here you can see sephiroth approaching in church doors
Even cloud buster sword is missing
I knew she loved him more than just friends, she really “likes” him, you can see how much she has suffered and she just wants clouds comfort, she wants to be with him, but she doesn’t want to hurt him, wished cloud was more open to her and I’m sure he wants to, but she did tell him not to fall in love with her 😪 man this stings right in the feels
She didn’t. She admits plainly, even after this scene, that she doesn’t know (can’t find) the real Cloud.
What did she say after that? “Even if you think you have, it’s not real.” Because on both sides, it isn’t. Cloud is influenced by Zach’s memories (which he straight up told Cloud about Aerith) and Aerith likes Cloud because he’s like Zach. She, in this game, never meets the real Cloud. We still haven’t either.
@@moonmoon2479 but she knows that’s not Cloud’s personality and she still loves him, even at the gold saucer she told him she knows he’s not Zack, and that’s ok, because she wants to be with cloud, despite trying so hard to find him, Aerith knows there’s a different cloud and she loves him anyway
@@moonmoon2479Um have you played the game at all? The only memories that Cloud has that came from Zack is him being a Soldier. Otherwise, Cloud's personality and feelings are not influenced by Zack. If that's the case then Cloud would also care for Zack's parents but he doesn't right? Also, Aerith has feelings for Cloud. Marlene told Zack that Aerith likes Cloud and heck even Zack accepted it. At the Gold Saucer date Aerith stated that Cloud is not Zack and that's okay because she loves Cloud. Zack is Aerith's first love but she moved on from that especially when she sent a lot of letters and have not received a single reply from Zack. In the end, Cloud likes Aerith and Aerith likes Cloud. It's only the circumstances that the two of them are embroiled with that made them a bittersweet couple.
The full lyrics of no promises to keep says it so plainly that she loves cloud
@@moonmoon2479 those are not Zack's memories. In OG, it is revealed that Cloud is there in the incident but as a trooper, so it is still his memories. What he remembers in Nibelheim is still his memories but a bit altered because Cloud wants to create a new persona for himself and used Zack's identity rank as first class soldier. But his memories are still his, he still remembers Tifa but again, a bit altered because it is also revealed while they are childhood friends, they were NEVER actually close.
FF7 is about identity. Sephiroth became weird after finding out his identity as "son" of Jenova. Red XIII is hiding his identity so the team won't treat him as a dog. Barret is a hypocrite because his real past identity is a shinra believer (he sold his town) despite saying how much he hates Shinra and so on...
Gosh, it's so bittersweet, sweet and painful😭😭😭 Square please let them reunited in pt 3😭😭
there is a part 3 !?

Gotta be honest, I thought she was talking about the playground

9:10. The music. The colors. The cinematography. Everything about this was as beautiful as it was painful 😭😭😭

His greatest love and heartache
😢poor aerith. Imagine if cloud didn't meet her, was she doomed to die all alone no one remembering her.
7:54 that hug 😭🥺🥺 I’m a mess!! I’ve waited for them to hug like that since remake 🥲 we finally see Cloud expressing his love for her openly
His expression was because she said "I love you!"
The flower pin on her jacket in the same spot she tucked the flower into Cloud's suspender when they first met. I'm too weepy for this.
StopppppT^T. I already cried a river.
STOP this makes it even more painful 😭
"Lovers used to give this when they are re united " - Aerith
Like with Leslie, I believe it's being used to show they will be reunited again in the future
Oh mah Gawd...I DIDNT EVEN PICK UP ON THAT 😢
Guysss this is OG Aerith that’s why he says “this isn’t you”: this isn’t the Aerith that this particular Cloud knows and that’s why he finds she’s acting weird! this is the same Aerith as in Cloud’s resolution scene. That’s why she says “I’m always putting my foot in my mouth, when will I ever learn?” she’s referring to when she told cloud not to fall in love but he does, just like now he has to look up because she told him not to. Sephiroth even says “so this is where you’ve been hiding?” cause he knows her from OG and he’s like ah hah, found ya! I cried and screamed so so much my mom was COMCERNED
in the japanese dialogue cloud says instead of our spot,it was easy, he says "the place i have memories,it was easy". "i dont have many memories," then aerith interject by saying," then make one from here" he replies" that is what i meant".its when aerith realize he likes her. "cloud its nice to hear your feelings"
Damn makes sense
Lifestream black Lifestream white
The way they interlaced fingers when they held hands!! 😭💕 It’s a direct callback to their Gondola date! That would make the date the most accurate and correct choice to work story-wise.
AERITH😢❤😭SEPHIROTH CLOUD WILL DESTROY YOU IN PART 3 FOR SURE 😠😡
“If only we had more time, am I right?” 😢😭😖💔
There is always next time. Or you could say, there is no certainty that there WON'T be a next time. Even OG Cloud and Aerith were able to see each other again so even though Aerith tried pushing Cloud away, if there is ANY option of crossing obstacles to find her, he would definitely take it, and Tifa would probably be the first to say "Let's do it!"
Tifa and Aerith are so well written that I don't even see a competition anymore for Cloud. Maybe because Tifa thought he was all sown up and beholden to her because they are friends, but if Aerith can be brought back, then Tifa would take it herself. The only time I remember her getting really defensive was in the sewers when she questioned who Aerith was to Cloud. Now they are like blood sisters and it crushed Tifa losing Aerith just like Jessie all over again.
Too many people trying to cheapen this so called love triangle. The dynamic between these three transcends any generic "catty" competition between two girls for the same guy.
it's illegal to make a character that beautiful . she is perfection itself
I love how Cloud can easily say what he thinks when he is with Aerith.
It's 1:29 am and I'm crying so badlyT^T. I can't stop my tears from falling. I just love these two and this hurts so much.
For anyone wondering what was happening in this scene; Cloud is a no bullshlt type of guy he excels in combat situation but in social situations he sorta comes out short😅He doesn't play games but they always tend to find him. He didn't understand at the time that this was Aerith's last moment with Cloud, she wanted to spend the last few moments with him and confess her genuine feelings for him so she created a "mind space or mental plain" where she had the power to do that so she created a dream-like scenario where they both went on a date, clueless to Cloud.😂
Gonna say it once.
Cloud and Aerith have a good chemistry. Same with Cloud and Tifa.
Personally, both these female characters are amazing.
One signifies innocence while the other signifies maturity.
There are not a lot of situations where I could accept either pairing, but this... is one of them.
CloTi and ClErith fans... don't destroy this masterpiece like how the ship wars destroyed Naruto.
Really... treasure this game and the pairings.
Aerith dies, cloud needs to keep his life! And his future is with tifa! And the game making them kiss now, just proves that! It’s over
@@kaulciferdarkness8323 I kinda knew that because her dying in the original is a BIG deal, but...
Personally, couldn't care about the end results.
The story, characters, mechanics, etc. are fantastic!
Still, CloTi is really good, but ClErith is too.
So yeah... I just lament not having a PS5😭
Personally, GOTY!!!
Although, chances are skewed because if ClErith had a similar scene... GOTY was a definite.
Still, the game is too fun to not enjoy because of pairings.
@@kaulciferdarkness8323 She actually is not in the other timeline. So even then you are taking only ship as canon when every romance scene is optional technically
@@gamerforlife3946 you are talking like the game is real life you stupid shithead! Hundred of people wrote this fantasy game! The fact that they changed only the tifa date to a scene where they kiss!

Imagine Cloud in Part 3 when he finally figures out everything. He's already a complete mess at the ending of Part 2.
It's supposed to make you feel regretful but sheesh.
Is the ending of part 2 setting something up with cloud saving aerith?
@@ErenDenizMert Marlene told Zack to wake Cloud 2 so he can save Aerith 2. As for Cloud 1 saving Aerith 1, it's too late. He literally can't process her leaving him, he's broken completely (Tifa and Barret now look at him like he's a martian) and he can see Aerith next to him like a spirit.
Him facing the truth about her, her feelings and his own feelings is going to be brutal.
@@leostenbuck4194 Interesting. But then theres the whole part of converging timelines... so im on copium that this somehow brings aerith back. Also could it be that shes next to him due the lifestream and not his little schizophrenia attack?
He sees "ghost" aerith in some scenes but in other scenes at least to me it looked like he actually sees aerith from life stream or another timeline
That’s why he’s depressed in advent children
The end was so painful nooooooooo
It was confusing to me, lol. Lgl
Then again I have been extremely sick, can't eat. Sleep deprived as well whenever I saw the ending and my brain was about as empty as my stomach. But I came back and watched it later so all is good....sorta? Still peeved the way they have nerfed Cid so much from cursing and smoking but I well

Cloud and Aerith are soulmates. They're going to have their happy ending finally, I just know it. He wouldn't be searching for her in every universe if she wasn't his other half. 💕
I hope so 😭 They deserve it.
I really see no other point in rewriting the story. I'll believe until the very end. star-crossed lovers deserve some happiness❤
I mean, what’s the point of having these lyrics and the theme of defying fate if it’s just gonna end the same way again?
Shine bright once more, guide me to you
This time, I will never let you go
In the chance that you’ll come take my hand, and never let me go
Take my hand and believe we can be… together evermore
😢😭 THEY ARE NEVER BEATING THE SOULMATES ALLEGATIONS 💘
the ending's already been leaked, she dies
I don't even know. Tifa and cloud actually kiss if you go that way. You don't get that with Aerith.
“Whatever happens, don’t blame yourself.”
“This isn’t about me, though. It’s about saving the world…and you.”
“Whatever happens, you can’t fall in love with me.”
Aerith’s lines consistently rip my heart out.
Cant believe folk lied about this scene (in leaks) saying Cloud/Aerith didnt care that much while posting a few screens from it. Sweet release to see it was mostly fabricated, very bittersweet final moment.
Lmao yea they tried to say it was bc he said "you are weird" but clearly they dont know his characterization😂
2:27 I love Aerith
Mannn. It's Aerith's dream to spend her time with Cloud in Sector 5. I really enjoyed their moments there in the Remake, so this is really bittersweet for meT^T❤. I love these two but they can't seem to get their happy ending :'
I just noticed the sounds of Aerith in pain at the beginning 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀 omfg
Finally someone talking about it
When I first heard it I literally felt my heart skip a beat, it scared me hahaha
THE OTP! Incredible chemistry these two have.
Some of the best Final Fantasy couples are those that end in tragedy. It’s Square Enix’s specialty and I both love and hate them for it lol!
But their tragic romances are also they’re best written 🥰 Cloud x Aerith and Tidus x Yuna are peak romance writing
Nah. Tidus didn't really have a harem so the writing in that game is far better.
@@zackfair6791 Not sure how long it’s been since you played the game, but he had several women after him. There’s even the pseudo-love triangle with him, Yuna and, Rikku. Even Lulu had an interest in him. But I do agree, they were more like Jessie in the sense that there wasn’t much competition.
FF7 is really the most ambiguous of the Love Triangles in Final Fantasy as a whole. The devs most likely will never just come out and confirm which side is endgame. Which I’m fine with to be honest. I like the fact that player’s can choose and make their own decisions.
@@Msis03 Not really. There was nothing in 10 that is anywhere close to the romance stuff in 7. It seemed like they initially planned to have romance choices in 10 but it got scrapped mid development. And so what we are left with is Rikku/Lulu riding behind Tidus on a snowmobile, and a conversation with him in Guadosalam. Nothing terribly remarkable there.
I think the love triangle thing is lame. I don't care who they pick i just wish they would choose a canon love interest for Cloud. I would be fine with player choice IF they had similar scenes for all the women in the story. So for example if Tidus and Rikku had a optional teary farewell ending in 10 instead of just Tidus and Yuna.
@@zackfair6791 oh agreed! Of course it’s not on the same level or had player choice options, just that there were multiple romances teased, whether through flirtation or one-sided, as I said, it’s like how they did Jessie.
But I’m really not talking about harems or love triangles or anything. Just that the tragic love story of Tidus x Yuna is very similar to Cloud x Aerith’s.
I just realize how much Square likes their tragic romances. You can even include Noctis x Luna, though I don’t think those two had that strong of writing. Even Clive x Jill ended bittersweetly.
@@Msis03 It's still not quite the same as Jessie imo. She seems to be genuinely interested in Cloud. Whereas the best Tidus can get is "maybe" from Rikku and Lulu. Rikku says "Maybe someday" and Lulu's response is "I'll add you to the list."
im sobbing once again, they're the sweetest
Whyyyyyy they do this to me! I’m crying this couple deservers to be happy 😢😢😢
Cloud better be happy
I may be confused but this just made me cry like the og did this scene is perfect
Aerith found a way a to bring both herself and Cloud’s souls into the other timeline where Zack is alive, albeit temporarily. How else do you explain why our Cloud with his memories of the original timeline, wakes up in the same wheelchair and bedroom where Zack left him in the other timeline? And also, Marlene in the other timeline warns Zack then when Aerith in this timeline wakes up, Sephiroth will try to kill her, which is what he tries to do when he enters the church here. Sephiroth very clearly has the ability to exist in multiple timelines at once, like a bizarre anomaly. But Aerith seems to only be able to have her waking consciousness in one body at a time. Perhaps by her dying for good in the current timeline she ‘wakes up’ for good in Zack’s timeline.
Nope as Marlene said, Cloud needs to not be sick and save Aerith for her to wake up
Well Cloud is capable of being in other timelines, worlds whatever you call it, but he doesn't have memories (that's just a theory tho). Like in Morbius if I'm not mistaken Cloud said by himself that he doesn't remember anything except some weird bright light (memories of Aerith) and he decides to create a new timeline where everything can be changed for better.
I quote Zack: But who’s to say they can’t unite again?
I believe the reunion will show a timeline where Aerith is alive
@@aggiel8775hopefully. Since No promises to keep says the same

Guess the kiss wasn’t enough to keep them from doing damage control 😎
@@DelicateRosexo watching that whole date, I get why lol, Cloud barely smiled, and they kissed then couldn’t look at each other after. No wonder they got major insecurities!
If Cloti were more interesting I’d ship it more. I think it’s cute, but man the CT fans are the worst so I lay low with it.
@@Msis03 Yeah like I always felt there was a big lack of connection with Tifa compared to Aerith (well the lifestream and highwind scenes were nice tho Ill admit) But even so if he does end up with Tifa if Aerith is truly dead like its whatever, tragic but by the end if AC is still the true ending at least Cloud is happy.
they just know the entire kiss scene is 100% fanservice. it's so OOC for Cloud's personality, and it came literally out of nowhere right after talk about Aerith🙄 I kinda understand them, honestly. I'm clerith with 99,9% of my heart but that 0,1% is also sad for zerith bc now it's too obvious clerith is only canon
@@alwaysloctis Reckon it’s deliberately OOC? Fits with the whole Zack persona. I just don’t see him being all suave and forward like that… even though, his face after pulling Tifa in said: 😐

Cloud not , Zack is.
@@justiceavenger275 Nice cope. See Zack and Marlene’s conversation. Go back to your optional ship
@@tdspkhype3042 Her fate is sealed.
@@justiceavenger275 Yet Marlene said Cloud can save her in that timeline. Hence why Zack is trying to cure Cloud in his timeline
Straight up. The romance scene and this scene solidifies that fact. Cloud and Tifa's scene felt too superficial. He was the cool badass who said a one liner and kissed her as the fireworks went off. Even taking into account Cloud personality at this point in the story, it doesn't flow right at all.
But with Aerith he is truly vulnerable and wants to protect her above all else. He speaks to her as if he wants to see the next day and is looking towards the future positively because she would be in it with him, despite the crazy life and death circumstances they are in, rather than only feeling he just has the present with her. He speaks of "next time" and "tomorrow" because his love with Aerith is a married couple type of love.
She love him, more than anyone. She spent a little time left of her to a date with Cloud, to do the thing they never get a chance to do, and say the thing she never get a chance to say: “I really like you Cloud. Thank you- for everything….”
These two are soulmates. 😭😭😭

@@mochaeko If you think THE Cloud Strife is the type to pity kiss someone he’s not in love with, especially after being rejected by Aerith as you say, then I’ll gladly end this conversation now
This video is non-romanced Aerith. Aerith's answer really depends if you romance her or not - she confirms your relationship if you're only friends or someone with mutual feelings with. I see a lot of people confused with this that's why there's shipping wars lol
the translator had a hard time translating the word "Suki" in JP. It literally meant I like you or I love you, hence the translation.
Now depending if Aerith is romanced, Cloud's answer when Aerith asks him "Next time?" is different. It may seem small but in context, Cloud says "Yeah, Next time" in JP "Yeah as friends". The official translation was "I mean. Why not?". (this video)
If you romanced Aerith, Cloud says in JP dub "Mochiron" which is also hard to translate like "Suki", but in the context it means "I always have time for you. of course." The official translation was "Yeah. Next time." It really depends on the players choices.
Wish they would have got the translations right to begin with, hopefully they fix this like they did the "steel sky" line.
I prefer Cloud with Aerith or at least make Aerith to live.Everyone has a story line they love which is not about selfish or keeping the original story intact, it is about we all expecting things good in these days. Now is no longer 1997 the value, the mindset and global environment totally different. people need more positive and faith for good. Multi ending in part 3 would be more appreciated than just let the player day dreaming in the DLC.
Aerith is just so perfect.😍I hope she can survive this time and go marry Tifa
Honestly, would solve the LTD 😂

My theory is that this is the Aerith who has already died at the Forgotten City altar. She's able to live on through the lifestream and communicate to Cloud through dream worlds she can conjure. The "you can't fall in love with me" dream from Remake and this scene both take place in the same dream reality which is shown by both scenes having odd phenomena in the sky and Aerith being surrounded by green lifestream in Remake, she has already died to Sephiroth. She's possibly able to create this dream world whilst she's asleep in Zack's timeline but she cannot wake up as Sephiroth will instantly be able to find what world she's broadcasting in and kill her making her less powerful and unable to pass on the white materia to Cloud here.
This is her final goodbye to Cloud ever as once she hands over the materia to Cloud her duty is done and Sephiroth tracks her down (Sephiroth is able to see these dreams through Cloud's eyes due to their connection so the second she starts broadcasting the clock is ticking to when Sephiroth will track her down). She decides to spend one last good day with him in Sector 5 before sending him back with the white materia and ensuring that past her can cast Holy at the Forgotten City. Sephiroth comes through the door and kills her (possibly killing her in Zack's timeline where she is projecting this from as well) and she returns to the lifestream once more but unable to communicate directly via dreams to Cloud ever again. This is why the "next time" line breaks her and why everyone is talking about running out of time, this is her dream world and the NPCs know this is her last day with Cloud.
Aw dang it I was looking for the “ yeah next time :) “ cloud response 😩
this is missing the part where cloud wants to take photos with aerith and he takes her hand again before they go to the church😭 anyway, i love these two soulmates. i’m so happy with the ending😭
And they couldn't take the photo and in advant children cloud has photos with everyone but aerith and there is just a yellow flower on his desk...
@@aidinkabiri2866 i know omg😭 i wish they had a photo together this time💔
@@aidinkabiri2866not only flower but also lots of photos of flowers... reminded him of her and probably some sort of Promised Land in his imagination
Umm, the photo hurts your case more.
@@moonmoon2479 ??? it doesn't. if you're referring to the "funeral" comment, it's because aerith looked sad since she knows she's doomed and all the npcs were a little ominous because they're in a dying world. what matters is that cloud wanted to take those photos and clearly liked being on that date with her despite the fact he was confused about her behavior but you guys sure love to ignore context!
was the soundtrack title at the end?
This is clearly Jenova posing as Aerith 😂
it's a shame this isn't the max affinity aerith scene. at 7:02 there's a different response for cloud where he smiles back and says 'yeah next time' and then Aerith acts all giddy
In japanese its actually lets make more memories together or something
@@ErenDenizMert yeah since i posted this i saw that on twitter
