In the Japanese version, where Zack sees Cloud frozen still, he actually says "i kinda hate you a little bit" instead of "nice to see you again/you've been prett busy" in english, after knowing that Aerith began to love Cloud
The jealousy between Cloud, Zack, Aerith and Tifa is so frustrating... just let them all exist together in a weird poly relationship there's clearly a lot of love between them 😭 It feels strange to watch Zack suddenly say stuff like that when they clearly both love Aerith and Aerith loves them back
They can both be petty in flaunting their highlighted moments alone with Cloud, but it is never truly mean-spirited and more there to equally show fan service for whichever relationship you think is best for Cloud. These characters build one of the most iconic friendships of my lifetime.
Jenny at first: ugh what does Johnny see in this girl she's sooo not special Jenny after knowing Tifa better: damn no wonder he likes her so much she's perfect that was actually cute
There is also Cloud spying on Aerith conversation with a man in her room only to find out it was Red in Japanese is even more obvious as he says "Red? that’s fine then."
I was so on the fence about including that scene or not. It seemed a little ambiguous to me but I wasn't aware that the Japanese dialogue made it more clear.
How is that being jealous 💀 dude heard her talking and another unrecognizable voice about something pretty important. Cloud was looking out for her, not being jealous... You guys really want to make every little reaction Cloud has with any of the girls be romantic
@@sophi3n.797 Then why he doesn’t ask her about the whispers after that since he was that interested in the conversation? He just asks about who she was with and then expresses relief when it’s Red. You all act like Aerith is 12 and can’t take care of herself also Cloud started spying before hearing it was about the whispers.
@@Erst999 because he wasn't interested in the conversation, dude. He was worried about her, jesus 💀 y'all wanna make EVERY little interaction Cloud has with any of the girls be romantic. He can he worried too 💀 especially after hearing Aerith talking to a voice he's never heard before INSIDE HER ROOM. Have you forgotten Shinra is after her? Literally a chapter later Roche comes to Junon 😭 it may have been to fight Cloud but it's normal for Cloud to be worried about her, they are friends after all
@@Erst999 User sophi3n.797 is a Tifa bias. They refuse to acknowledge any romance or jealousy between Cloud and Aerith in any way. I saw their many other comments like this.
1:00 didn’t she see the flower on the table when she went to rescue marlene and gave a big smile ? , also they were strangers when she gave it to him and he gave it to someone he knows and symbolizes they’re reunion after 5 years ( which aerith told him that ) , but now cloud shouldn’t have done that ? i really don’t get it
@@NemesisNero bro , aerith literally told cloud that this makes for a good gift to someone , so her reaction here makes no sense and also contradicts her reaction when she saw it in the bar
@@NemesisNero Yeah hahaha, though I think she still took it as a sign. Girls do that sort of thing. You give something to them randomly when they bring up what you have with you. And eons later you learn they kept that thing and attributed a huge meaning to it. What Cloud did there isn't even that uncommon. But yeah she was deflated for sure. Probably more at herself for not realizing it wasn't him to go out of his way to buy flowers.
@@mannamv1205 She did not say that. Only if you reject it she'll say "It'll make your gf's day". And only if you reject it. And like I said Tifa was disappointed. Re gifting doesn't make anyone happy.
I really don't like this love triangle things putting us in a confusion state. But for what I see, Zack's loyalty for Aerith after not seeing for years is truly unwavering. This guy is rare and he deserves more.
Exactly. It also contrasts badly with Crisis Core, because Aerith wrote to Zack for five years. She barely even mentions Zack in this game. She literally just gave up on him completely
@@sakonan4883 Aerith gave up on Zack already in Crisis Core she said final and quit writing him while he was still alive. So it's no surprise she wouldn't speak to him in Rebirth then made up lies about him being with other women to his parents of all people. Aerith blamed Zack for disappearing for those 4 years while Tifa has never once held the same issue against Cloud. Keep in mind Cloud was gone far longer from Tifa for 7 years, not 4 years which is when Aerith quit on Zack. Aerith easily dropped Zack and switched her affection to Cloud while if you look at Tifa she has only ever loved Cloud from day one and then Cissnei she still thinks about Zack and waits for him in Gongaga. So yeah I don't see Zerith ever coming back in part 3.
for me shippinh is not about cannon or not, but the attitude that cloud shows when with tifa looks decidedly more comfortable and open (a little akward)😂 I'm comfortable looking at it
@@anujasawant1056 She's disappointed in Zack yeah. This is reflected in No Promises To Keep. Zack represents the broken promises of the past that disappointed Aerith and this turned her off of the entire concept of promises. She was hurt and let down by Zack's disappearance. Is it fair? Not really, it wasn't Zack's fault that he disappeared, but that's just how it went. While the song is written for Cloud and represents Aerith's renewed happiness with no promises to keep. The title of the song.
Pretty sure Reno said “get a room will ya” to make Cloud mad. And also to pick on Rude for his crush on Tifa, like he does in the original game. At least, that’s the vibe I got from the scene. EDIT: oh I see now. It was CLOUD getting jealous, lmao. Seems like it worked. 😂
Reno said nothing about getting a room. He only says "Rude, you're so cool" in Japanese. Why would he want that second choice leftover for his partner?
@@user-fc5sq1jy5m Lmao, another snowflake Tifa fan that can’t stomach the reality and goes “cope, cope, bark-bark” whenever anyone brings it up. So amusing to watch
@@KoriDess in English he does. Are we not watching the same video?? I’m aware he says something different in Japanese. Also that’s a really mean thing to say about Tifa…. :/
A lot of jealousy is sucked out of the finger here. The moment with Reno is the greatest example. Because in Japanese he doesn't even say the phrase "get a room", Cloud jumps on him, just because he is "evil" in the temple. So this moment is created by localization. There's also a moment about Zack with Aerith, more than jealousy, Cloud just wants the best for Aerith because the dude hasn't been around for 5 years. And most likely, her words also angered him a little, and he began to think that she wanted to be with him only because of Zack.
@@realestalex2728 Sometimes its true, but in rebirth localization is oftern just confuses and not convey , what scene intends.For example, the last date of Cloud and Aerith. When Cloud asks why they weren't photographed, the photographer says they don't look like they were on a date (although they posed beautifully) So stupid. In fact, he says in Japanese that Aerith looks like she's going to cry. And this is a direct hint that Aerith knows the future here, and that she just wants to spend her last moments with Cloud. And it is precisely because of the photographer's words that Cloud says that she is behaving strangely for the second time, and that something is wrong with her. The English localization does not convey this meaning at all. And there are a million such moments in the game, they add and create the emotions they want, and sometimes they don't convey what should be conveyed through the scenes.
@@sophi3n.797 Of course he didn't ask out of jealousy, I wrote a comment about his answer, why he says she should forget him. And what he was feeling in that moment
There isn't mistranslation.. The English version intentionally took more liberties, and most of the time, the rewording conveys the same meaning. They did this instead to translate word for word. Unfortunately, some contexts are changed or lost. The best exemple is in the remake ending, the steel sky line but it is now fixed, and in other instances such as Cloud is not interested in dating Aerith in Costa del Sol in the localization meanwhile in the Japanese ver he simply states that he doesn't know how to date. However, for the most part, the English localization is correct or even improves upon some aspects. Aerith is portrayed as more sassy, Barret is even more lovable than he already is, there is swearing in the English dub (Swearing in japan is using baka ''stupid'' lol). However, I find Cloud swearing every five seconds a little cringe-worthy. I primarily played the French translation, which is more faithful to the Japanese. However the English dialogue feels more natural and less anime-like.
Well, the thing that gets Aerith upset about the flower in my opinon is that he lied to her, twice. First in Remake, he says he doesn't remember who he gave it too (which by that point can be fair, he doesn't know her yet so has no interest in sharing private information) and then a second time in Rebirth, he yet again lies when she comments that she doubt _he_ put the flower in a vase with water. I'm sure she wouldn't have thrown a comment like that had he just admitted that he gave it to Tifa.
@@Mukation truth to be told he didnt gave it to tifa out of any emotion, he was just surprised she saw him with something soft, and he tried to defuse and keep his edge by giving it to her, its not like he ever intended on meeting aerith again. the fact he kept the flower for so long show he had more afinity to it. and he only lied to aerith, because he didnt want her to know he gave her flower to another girl cos he was INTO her (aerith), and the second time he was trying to save face because he likes her. those are white lies.
@@bladerj Now you're making shit up, lol. He didn't exactly have time to think about the flower on his chest, because he was being shot at and had to fight his way through the streets to get to the trainl. He litterally found her nothing but anoying during their first encounter and only during the roof top walk does he warm up to her a little and he still lied. He could have easily said his best friend runs a bar so he gave it to her for decoration there. But he isn't even capable of claiming that Tifa is just a friend when Aerith asks about her either. But he didn't. And she litterally saw the flower at the bar in Remake and smiled. She knows he gave it to Tifa. She was 100% upset that he _still_ lied to her in Kalm.
There’s no jealousy there though, is there? Admitting ‘yeah I sat up here hoping Tifa would wave’ is the high affinity option. And when Tifa sees them, she gives a friendly wave with a smile. Where’s the jealousy, it’s rather a wholesome moment I thought
@@funkyfranx An interesting thing is that Cloud doesn't wave back, only Aerith. Cloud looks away as Tifa sees the two there.... He does the same if you get Aeriths date in ch. 8 and run into Tifa on the chocobo section. He's obviously feeling a bit awkward with Tifa seeing him with another woman. He doesn't do that if it's reversed. But then again, he knows Aerith is aware that he's known Tifa all his life so if you "ship" him and Aerith, he has zero reason to think Aerith would "get the wrong impression".
@@S_Blitz Sorry but I never understand this argument bcs Cloud is single, they love him both and they are free to flirt with him, why is it a problem only when it's Aerith who does it ? Cloud said in part.1 that Tifa isn't his girfriend so...
@@ladansemakabreBut they have the right, Cloud is a single man so if Jessie and Aerith are clearly showing their attraction to him it's not as negative as you think
@@bouchra75-zk3jh2bh9z except both *know* Tifa likes Cloud, that's why they are sh*t friends 💀💀 if you respect your friend you won't try to steal her man. simple as that
I wonder why Aerith keeps flirting with Cloud both in Tifa's presence and behind her back, knowing Tifa has feelings for him. Are they really friend though? 😅
@@ummwhat3527That doesn't work here because Aerith knows that Tifa and Cloud have known each other since childhood. Tifa tells her the past. It's not wrong for Aerith to like Cloud but to do it in front of Tifa, knowing that she harbors the same feelings is not funny nor good for Tifa.
@@legend1385Aerith is proactive about it while Tifa isn’t, then Aerith should just wait until Tifa decides to do something? It doesn’t work like that either.
@@Erst999 My point is not that she should not be forward with her feelings my point is to do it in ''FRONT'' of Tifa knowing that she and Cloud literally had a fight not 20 minutes ago is not the right time nor should it be acceptable. It comes off weird and Cloud is visibly uncomfortable with it as shown by his face. Aerith has no reason to wait yes that's true but there is a time and a place and this scene was not one of them.
Right?? Aerith projects Zack onto Cloud and tries to make every little interaction they have into sth romantic. I dont dislike Aerith but I hate how she wants Cloud to BECOME Zack...
That's only if you deny the flower. But it was also a gift. A girlfriend would not want a re gifted flower. And Tifa is not even his girlfriend. But Tifa was also disappointed about it (if you get her scene.) Re gifting is not a good idea, for either party lol
@@carlytweedle9943 Then why pissed? I don't even think thats the canon choice. Especially because it's not an option in the OG. Just what you chose. And re gift is not good.
Does Marlene imply on that "Couse you weren't there" that if Zack would have been there, Aerith would have never feel anything for Cloud? Couse that's how i read it.
No. in japanese language they both said lovey-dovey and marlene still said aerith is "daisuki" cloud that canbe mean love then when zack met cloud at sephiroth fight, he actually said he hated cloud a little bit. it's bc this thing.
like what @yakumojoly said. Zack asks Marlene if Aerith has feelings for Cloud and in Japanese Marlene replies "うん きっとね" which means "Yes, without a doubt." Then Zack says "それは ひゅーひゅー だな" then Marlene says "ひゅーひゅー!" not "Cause you weren't there". "ひゅーひゅー" is an onomatopoeia. Meaning like teasing a couple for being lovey dovey and/or congratulating them. Unfortunately both games have quite a few confusing translations like this.
I feel like when it comes to aerith being a romance option you could maybe say that back in 1997 when it was its own thing but after cc ac derge and everything else it just comes off creepy. like cloud isnt going to go for his best friends girl thats just wrong idk maybe cleariths like that sort of thing about cloud and aerith but to me it was always weird that people like that not to mention aerith dies so if cloud loves aerith why would he go snowboarding and bang tifa under the highwind right after after she dies🤷♂️ cloud is with tifa and zack is with aerith thats how it always was and thats how it shall be weather you like it or not.
creepy how? he doesn't even remember zack for most of the game. plus zack is dead anyway so how is aerith still his girl exactly? is a woman just a man's property forever? she's just not allowed to move on? she has to mourn him forever?
@@amoose977 It’s creepy because Cloud is emulating Zack and has ‘absorbed’ certain personality traits of his. Aerith wants to move on, but doing so with Cloud is a ‘one step forward, one step back’ kind of situation. Imagine a first class Soldier with eyes like the sky falls through your roof, with the exact mannerisms of your ex. Must have felt like fate to Aerith
Hey guys I am planning buy the ff7 rebirth and remake but I want to be sure, is zack really alive? I only know orginal ff7 storyline should I get the games, I know I will enjoy the gameplay but I am not sure how to feel if they changed the storyline.
Man Zack always hits me in the feels ever since Crisis Core. He's the perfect embodiment of a good older friend/role model. Who then tragically sacrifices himself 😪
The feuds that are happening in these comments over “Fictional characters” is unfathomable. It makes sense why Final Fantasy 7 has a small audience compared to others. No one wants to be apart of something that is just going to lead to loose ends with people. In conclusion, the community as a whole is unbearably divided.
Personally with me, SE shouldn’t have made Aerith a love interest because I feel like she deserves more than that as the last Cetra. She’s too pure and sweet for any shipping wars nor to be just limited to a girl for ships. They should’ve made her a strong, independent mystical that needs the teams help and one that loves everyone so much. That’s given, but people are taking it out of context and limiting her to just a ship
I disagree, her having love interests doesn't limit her but enhances her. She is more than just a Cetra, she is a person and is as much a part of the human condition as anyone else and that includes falling in love. Her desires give her interests and conflicts and make her human and personable. Being just a strong independent mystical turns her into nothing more than a plot device. Having her be a romantic interest allows the audience to fall in love with her too. When she's gone we don't just lose a magical mcguffin, we lose a dear friend and a part of ourselves.
I think her and clouds story and chemistry made this game. No hate but I think the game would still be working well without Tifa. No hate. I think any ship is valid that was how the game was designed.
@@JokeRIterXThat’s true and I really like how you explained it out, I just would’ve loved to see her shine more with given her background story just a bit more. People have lost the plot between the two games.
What the heck Cloud? You call your friend Zack a loser. Is this your idea of honor? Is this the way to treat your first friend that gave you his living legacy?
*SPOILERS UNDERNEATH* He doesn’t fully remember Zack nor his sacrifice at this point in the story. His memory and identity is incredibly fractured. He just sees a guy who was dating Aerith, and ghosted her for years. Of course he’s going to react like that lol especially considering his friend seems hurt by it.
In the Japanese version, where Zack sees Cloud frozen still, he actually says "i kinda hate you a little bit" instead of "nice to see you again/you've been prett busy" in english, after knowing that Aerith began to love Cloud
Damn lol thats quite the difference
dubtitles does not give context like fansubs. I feel for Zack, but it isn't over yet
The jealousy between Cloud, Zack, Aerith and Tifa is so frustrating... just let them all exist together in a weird poly relationship there's clearly a lot of love between them 😭 It feels strange to watch Zack suddenly say stuff like that when they clearly both love Aerith and Aerith loves them back

@@Digital_DavidI don't think they are close friends but good buddies
Fans always trying to pit them against each other but they don’t have that kind of relationship
And that's besides the fact Aerith is actively trying to cuck her.
This is true

it makes Tifa seem like a Mary Sue

@@bouchra75-zk3jh2bh9z except both *know* Tifa likes Cloud, that's why they are sh*t friends 💀💀
if you respect your friend you won't try to steal her man. simple as that
I wonder why Aerith keeps flirting with Cloud both in Tifa's presence and behind her back, knowing Tifa has feelings for him. Are they really friend though? 😅
by your logic, Aerith likes Cloud too why would Tifa flirt with him? aren't they friends??
@@ummwhat3527That doesn't work here because Aerith knows that Tifa and Cloud have known each other since childhood. Tifa tells her the past. It's not wrong for Aerith to like Cloud but to do it in front of Tifa, knowing that she harbors the same feelings is not funny nor good for Tifa.
@@legend1385Aerith is proactive about it while Tifa isn’t, then Aerith should just wait until Tifa decides to do something? It doesn’t work like that either.
@@Erst999 My point is not that she should not be forward with her feelings my point is to do it in ''FRONT'' of Tifa knowing that she and Cloud literally had a fight not 20 minutes ago is not the right time nor should it be acceptable. It comes off weird and Cloud is visibly uncomfortable with it as shown by his face.
Aerith has no reason to wait yes that's true but there is a time and a place and this scene was not one of them.
Right?? Aerith projects Zack onto Cloud and tries to make every little interaction they have into sth romantic. I dont dislike Aerith but I hate how she wants Cloud to BECOME Zack...
I don’t which form of media has a huge amount of love triangles. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth or X-Men 97?
Both
Aerith's flower pissed me off, she literally told Cloud to give it to his girlfriend 😭😂
that was a horrible mistranslation btw. not even close to what she really said
@PenguinsAreColdish localisation, rather than mistranslation, but yeah I've seen it in Japanese too. I was just indignant on Cloud's behalf 😂
That's only if you deny the flower. But it was also a gift. A girlfriend would not want a re gifted flower. And Tifa is not even his girlfriend. But Tifa was also disappointed about it (if you get her scene.) Re gifting is not a good idea, for either party lol
@@NemesisNero I'm well aware it's only if you say you don't want it, I've played the game 🤣
@@carlytweedle9943 Then why pissed? I don't even think thats the canon choice. Especially because it's not an option in the OG. Just what you chose. And re gift is not good.
Does Marlene imply on that "Couse you weren't there" that if Zack would have been there, Aerith would have never feel anything for Cloud? Couse that's how i read it.
I mean, the only reason they're not together is because Zack died trying to bring Cloud to Midgar. That's a reasonable assumption to make.
No. in japanese language they both said lovey-dovey and marlene still said aerith is "daisuki" cloud that canbe mean love then when zack met cloud at sephiroth fight, he actually said he hated cloud a little bit. it's bc this thing.
like what @yakumojoly said.
Zack asks Marlene if Aerith has feelings for Cloud and in Japanese Marlene replies
"うん きっとね" which means "Yes, without a doubt." Then Zack says "それは ひゅーひゅー だな"
then Marlene says "ひゅーひゅー!" not "Cause you weren't there".
"ひゅーひゅー" is an onomatopoeia. Meaning like teasing a couple for being lovey dovey and/or congratulating them. Unfortunately both games have quite a few confusing translations like this.
Nope, she said it in reply to how Zack didn't see that coming, how could he have been it coming, he wasn't physically there to watch it.
I feel like when it comes to aerith being a romance option you could maybe say that back in 1997 when it was its own thing but after cc ac derge and everything else it just comes off creepy. like cloud isnt going to go for his best friends girl thats just wrong idk maybe cleariths like that sort of thing about cloud and aerith but to me it was always weird that people like that not to mention aerith dies so if cloud loves aerith why would he go snowboarding and bang tifa under the highwind right after after she dies🤷♂️ cloud is with tifa and zack is with aerith thats how it always was and thats how it shall be weather you like it or not.
creepy how? he doesn't even remember zack for most of the game. plus zack is dead anyway so how is aerith still his girl exactly? is a woman just a man's property forever? she's just not allowed to move on? she has to mourn him forever?
@@amoose977 It’s creepy because Cloud is emulating Zack and has ‘absorbed’ certain personality traits of his. Aerith wants to move on, but doing so with Cloud is a ‘one step forward, one step back’ kind of situation.
Imagine a first class Soldier with eyes like the sky falls through your roof, with the exact mannerisms of your ex. Must have felt like fate to Aerith
@@funkyfranx he isnt emulating zack, cloud is all emo and edgylord, zack was smooth and bigger than life.
Hey guys I am planning buy the ff7 rebirth and remake but I want to be sure, is zack really alive? I only know orginal ff7 storyline should I get the games, I know I will enjoy the gameplay but I am not sure how to feel if they changed the storyline.
Yesn’t spoiler
There are multiple timelines so Zack is still alive in some of those
I dont remember that scene with cissnei
It's optional. You have to complete all the side quests
Zack does not deserve to be without Aerith!!
Music title please
Then Zack takes his gift back. Oof
*Snatches bow* *Snatches buster sword* *Snatches Nibelheim photo*
Man Zack always hits me in the feels ever since Crisis Core. He's the perfect embodiment of a good older friend/role model. Who then tragically sacrifices himself 😪
Well Cloti was endgame!
Jenny and Johnny 😊
The feuds that are happening in these comments over “Fictional characters” is unfathomable. It makes sense why Final Fantasy 7 has a small audience compared to others. No one wants to be apart of something that is just going to lead to loose ends with people. In conclusion, the community as a whole is unbearably divided.
Personally with me, SE shouldn’t have made Aerith a love interest because I feel like she deserves more than that as the last Cetra. She’s too pure and sweet for any shipping wars nor to be just limited to a girl for ships. They should’ve made her a strong, independent mystical that needs the teams help and one that loves everyone so much. That’s given, but people are taking it out of context and limiting her to just a ship
I disagree, her having love interests doesn't limit her but enhances her. She is more than just a Cetra, she is a person and is as much a part of the human condition as anyone else and that includes falling in love. Her desires give her interests and conflicts and make her human and personable.
Being just a strong independent mystical turns her into nothing more than a plot device. Having her be a romantic interest allows the audience to fall in love with her too. When she's gone we don't just lose a magical mcguffin, we lose a dear friend and a part of ourselves.
They didn't limit SHIT. She's STILL ALL THOSE THINGS, and a love interest.
I think her and clouds story and chemistry made this game. No hate but I think the game would still be working well without Tifa. No hate. I think any ship is valid that was how the game was designed.
Just look at Aerith. How could she no bet a love interest?
@@JokeRIterXThat’s true and I really like how you explained it out, I just would’ve loved to see her shine more with given her background story just a bit more. People have lost the plot between the two games.
What the heck Cloud? You call your friend Zack a loser. Is this your idea of honor? Is this the way to treat your first friend that gave you his living legacy?
*SPOILERS UNDERNEATH*
He doesn’t fully remember Zack nor his sacrifice at this point in the story. His memory and identity is incredibly fractured. He just sees a guy who was dating Aerith, and ghosted her for years. Of course he’s going to react like that lol especially considering his friend seems hurt by it.
Cloud didn’t remember him at the time, he remembers Zack later in the game
Not like he remembers who Zack is.
@@MoonlightBrillanceCloud doesn’t remember but strangely he doesn’t remember being a SOLDIER means they have a code to live by.
He then remembers a little more about Zack iirc but still doesn't remember how Zack carried his ass to Midgard.
👍
Ok ... it's ok if cloud gous to Arieth because he don't deserve tifa!
LMAO
