I know I am months behind, now watching you, but cutting the beat arieths face part was I THINK not missed, bc honestly, it was hard enough watching Ifrit beat/brutalize Phoenix (even Garuda) that was borderline upsetting in a way that if repeated here would be over the top traumatic not only to watch but also towards clouds character and redemption going forward for new new fans and even some old - like I, like Clive, still haven’t forgiven lol. No accept the truth here lol Y’all sadistic. Hot take- out! ✌🏻

great video Pez! i can't wait for the first media concerning the final part.. I do hope that they progress more to a game that feels less like a Ubisoft tower-based map.. it took to much of the wonder out of the -otherwise- goooorgeous map. and whoever was in charge of the music and design of the world should get 5 raises over... looking forward to your next vid! ;)

I LOVE your idea of Sephiroth having a higher purpose than just dissolving completely forever. There's so much nuance and understanding that the character achieving a higher understanding and role to the natural order of the Lifestream would be fantastic. Especially with Ever Crisis and even the prior entries exploring Sephiroth as an individual. He's never even in the original been a mustache twirling villain

The RNG in this game is brutal 98% accuracy doesn’t mean shit 😂.

4:36 in, I missed this poll, so this could really do with an explanation of your theory. Idk if it is to come, but it just sounds like an idea that sounds edgy, but on what basis?

lol 7 years ago

Answer for people who couldn’t be bothered: Jenova Cells and Mako same as any SOLDIER.

ua-cam.com/video/zE77gooam1w/v-deo.htmlsi=WalYXgM7RENn6aRq I think that when Sephiroth achieves his goal and the worlds merge, creating a new reality where he says, “I will not end,” Aerith will also not end!

was Dyne also not suicide in OG or am i mistaken?

Aerith is already completely dead physically, so what more can you do to her? Her "existence" is either a lifestream version yet to be absorbed or a trick played from cloud's mind.

Final fantasy games have a way of pulling you in and feeling the emotions the characters are going through and damn it if they don't get me tearing up every time. Idk if I can handle a permanent end to Aerith and I could see this being a very good way of making her death essential for their victory and explain why she has already accepted her fate and maybe it hasn't happened yet because cloud isn't ready to do what needs to be done

lol all of his ideas were way ahead of its time and wouldve been perfect during the time of Marvel mania. I love nomura

FFXV is almost 10 years. Will you be returning back to FFXV?

do you people think that tifa is worried about cloud at the end of rebirth or she does not care about what happens to cloud at the end of rebirth?

1:58:43 I would actually pay for a moment like that in these games 🤣

Just wishing you the best Jake my man! You and your loved ones :)

One of the few FF7 streamers willing to contend with the Jungian and Meta vibes of it all. Keep it up. Whether the predictions become reality matters not in the long run but it is the creativity that were are engaging in is the true gift of the goddess and that which the developers are deliberately prioritizing as this project's goal. We are the life in the stream. And FF7 is an earnest depiction of what it is to be a human consciousness. FF7 ReTri desires to prophesize the next messiah archetype in this new era of the Persona following that of the Ego. I can only hope whoever or whatever this messiah is, they will come to embody Aerith versus Sephiroth. Sephiroth! DUNdunDUNdun

does tifa think that cloud kill aerith?

i still think all of this is a fever dream and none of it is actually real. and chadly is just running a simulation. its gonna be hilarious after the final part comes out and that turns out to be true. especially with how the ending of FFXVI ended, even though 0 relation to FF7remake trilogy. the games was a metaphor/story being told. remake could literally be chadly just crunching numbers and you are the simulation living it. quite literally Kingdom Hearts RE:Coded. but meh. we will see what happens. makes more sense when you realize chadly introduces you to the simulations. in the end the entire trilogy is just a what if and has no impact on the actual timeline. everyone dies. the end. FF7 can finally rest and stop getting milked so we can finally move on and get a new generation of FF games instead of remasters and remakes and shilling out old games because the new games dont hit the same.

Honest question maybe you can help explain an answer to - why was sephiroth’s blood covered sword coming out of the ground though instead of aerith? Even if Square wanted to avoid making the scene too ‘graphic’ they could have still shown the scene where sephiroth pulls the sword out from aeriths back, without showing the scene where the sword is in the ground at a different angle and blood is spilling on the ground. I’m trying to figure out why even in the scenario where we are to believe aerith was killed anyway, why Square is having us see a sword plunged into the ground instead.

Lol, this theory crap has gotten super lame over the years. Everybody is an EXPERT.

42:35 Really? Didn’t Dyne do just that in his end? I’m not challenging anything, I’m interested to hear what you and others think. To me it seemed that he voluntarily made that conscious choice. I suppose Enobarbus did the same out of guilt after betraying Antony, but the way he passed, left some room for interpretation. By the way, I wanted to add that I loved the exploration that you went into in this video! I, too, have always felt that the remake series had quite a bit of cosmological aspect in it.

Do people still argue about the canonicalness of fictional relationships these days? Dam bro , i could care less if cloud and tifa or aerith or whoever , i just want to play the game . Besides, Advent children already showed us cloud and tifa srill are just friends . Just move on . Just give me omnislash is all i care

The truth is that Aerith has always been the banner bearer of a harsh message. Which means any person who identifies/fancies her so much he/she becomes overly invested in her is doomed to lie to him/herself until they go mental. Because the truth is tragic. They set themselves up to fail so badly. And they cant resolve this investment made.

"People die when they are killed." ~ Emiya Shirou

My take, without any bigger message or deep thinking, is that she died on the altar, Cloud just blocked it, then at some point he (and we) will finally accept it, for her to return later in the story - somehow. Square can go anywhere the please, so I'm not even trying to predict story's direction.

People need to accept the reality of death,and death don’t have a respawn…and this is a way to show just how serious death and reality can be…she’s gone,and she shouldn’t be shown at all in the final installment,it’s the only way to go

I'm already mad because as a 17 yo in 97, I though this game is hardcore realistic. With all those strange things being like that because we saw them through Clouds faulty perspective. It was very artistic. With remake going ham on stupid fate stuff we see Tifa punch a ghost that can ressurect a dead person and represents fate.... The only fitting end to it is Cloud dying and ending the memories of Sephiroth which keep his conciousness from dissolving. Aerith and Zack rejoining Cloud while all of them delete 'themselves'.

Cloud should be with Anabella

I wish he would be a type of antihero

I reeeeally like this take! I want this for Aerith because if she can finally and fully merge with the lifestream, allowing her entire being to dissipate AS ALL LIFE SHOULD (according to what I understand of the world lore) … it will mean the planet is finally in the state it should have always been in and can return itself to the greater lifestream someday. That’s something that it either couldn’t or wouldn’t do with the presence of Jenova and everything that comes with her. I like to think what we saw in OG was like a “neutral” ending, but here in the RTrilogy Aerith is shooting for that 100% platinum trophy all collectibles SSS perfect ending where the planet and everyone on it, INCLUDING HERSELF, is able to merge with the lifestream as it was designed, and when the day comes for the planet to return to the greater lifestream, it can, along with the essence of every once living being with it. That’s my ideal ending. Besides, her dying doesn’t have to mean she won’t live before she “self deletes” 😂 We could be looking at a world where she potentially lives out the life she wanted. Same with Zack, and many others who lingered in death because of regret or whatever keeps them from truly dissipating in death. I much prefer the idea that we go through this decades long journey from OG to RTrilogy and reach a final conclusion where, as Aerith says in Advent, “everything is alright.” Always looking forward to your next theories and videos! Your passion when you speak is almost unrivalled, I’d listen and enjoy it regardless if I agreed or not 😂 ✨

There's no finality of death in the Lifestream though... Zack was dead, then they let you play his part in Rebirth. Aerith was dead, then they'll let you play her part in Re______. Lifestream doesn't work like real life out here (or does it? Who knows?). It's Final Fantasy. We shouldn't apply our real life logic to a game.

Uhh you misunderstand. What Aerith is. "A" goddess? More like, God, fully incarnate in a person, that's what Christ is. No lower case "g" god here, that's not what Aerith is.

I actually can't watch this till I finish rebirth, frick, been dragging my feet lol. As the most direct Christ allegory though in the world (she even acts like him/her, it's uncanny to be honest, if you've ever met mr. make your dreams come true, the body of imagination, Christ himself, you would know that aerith is his female incarnation, her personality is identical to his, it's uhm...intensely personal I even cry sometimes looking at aerith like omg, talk about a white mirror, cue the existential unfathomable meaning sessions, she acts more like Christ than the bible representation does, anyone who knows Christ will back me up on that, Christ is funny, flirty, charming, friendly, very non-serious, aerith basically I'm telling ya lol and I know trust me, it makes me think the square enix guys know all about Christ, which is honestly very likely.) so I doubt it tbh, it wouldnt make any sense? It'll prob be the opposite, eternal life. Coming back in a month or whatever though... just out of morbid curiosity, hoping this isn't just click bait capitalizing off a hype topic cause I think you're better than that.

Love this. I'm here for it. No notes, just helping to make you algorithmatically relevant again

I just don't see them going that way. She's already consciously surrendered her life and accepted her fate at the city of the ancients. Her voluntarily opting for perma-death is just more of the same, and from a meta/production/narrative perspective it would IMO be cringe. "No, no, this time she'll REALLY be dead!", c'mon.....This? Again? I don't need a happy "she's alive" ending, but an ending which isn't utterly depressing might be nice.

let me ask you people a question is tifa going to save cloud in part 3 or do you think that square enix is going to change her role you do know that if tifa doesn't save cloud in part 3 then a lot of people are going to be very disappointed and not going to buy part 3 at all?

I'm just going to say. I think Aerith and Zack will be reunited and it will one of the highest climatic points in part 3, whether they get to live together in the livestream, another world, or in the same world as Cloud and friends will be the question. I don't buy your theory about Aerith being permanently deleted. She's too popular of a character to do that. Many clerith shippers will hate it, but I think Aerith will find happiness with Zack and she will be rewarded and so will Zack.

I would want for her and Zack to have a little bit of life together, even in another reality, not just afterlife...They both so much deserved it. I definitely want Zack to survive this time and go back to his parents. Or at least visit them once. Then after some time Aerith could merge with the planet and give people the promised land.

This is one way to ruin the Remake trilogy. If they are bullshitting me with giving me hope that Aerith might survive this time while turning to a monstrosity like erasing one of the most beloved characters they have ever created, I'm permanently done with Square Enix. But honestly, I don't think this will be the case. They won't end the FFVII saga on such a disgusting note.

It was Nobuo Uematsu's mother who passed away, he wrote Aerith's theme for her.

Good stuff bro.

I would've liked if she was gone once she was killed. Then maybe in the third game we control her and Zack together fighting in the lifestream every now and then while we and the main party continue our journey. Then maybe we complete the lifestream journey and because of this, Minerva allows aerith to come back temporarily to help the main party or just cloud in the final battle against sephiroth. Kind of like how she did in rebirth at the end.

More than likely i'll skip part 3 anyways. I mean rebirth was good but it tuned into FF mini game and by the end i was wore out from everything takes a mini game it was BS. I own every FF game played em all and love em all but not a fan of mini game creep they way they did it to us.

I believe they will include a part where cloud will find the promised land and be able to meet her again and ask Aerith to “wake up” like that one scene from rebirth

I’ve given up trying to figure out where the story could go. As Aerith is my favorite character in the series and how they expanded her character in the Remake series, I have hopes in the timeline theory that Cloud created a new timeline where he saved Aerith, but how he saved her but at the same time failed is hard to make sense out of. It’s also hard not to argue that the exploration of the sense of loss for the party would be interesting compared to the original where Aerith died, they mourned momentarily and she was essentially forgotten until they had to go back to the City of the Ancients. We will have to see how it’s executed but taking away an iconic scene to give us a Walking Dead “who did Neegan kill” scenario may end up being a turn off. Especially since we’re going to be waiting 3 to 4 years as opposed to 6 months to find out what happened to Aerith.

I fully believe Cloud became permanently scarred after being experimented on...to the point that we don't know who the real one is. There is a permanent rift between us and the supposed "reality" of the timeline of that world. Red XIII said 'Destiny' began when Aerith dropped her flower on Loveless Avenue...We can't answer definitevly the question of whether she can be deleted because we don't know exactly how much she knows in the beginning and how much she can influence. How alive and "real" was she before...What did the world even look like from her perspective? Some people assume Cloud returning to normalcy after AC, but its been hinted he can still see her walking the meadows at the end. It feels like there should be at least one world in which Cloud dies in the Mako tank and doesn't survive...his past is too enmeshed in whimsical twists of fate to be undone from that of Aerith's to assume one of them could just be unmade...For example, the elephant in the room - how did he kill Sephiroth in Nibelheim? Why are there gaps in Tifa's memory if she's been crisp all this time? Why was there a need for Aerith to confess to Cloud on the beach how dark was her hatred for Hojo, does she have a shadow as well? If she can be deleted there needs to be an assumption that she wasn't real...its a catch 22 because Cloud repressed his memories of Sephiroth which made only grow...So it turns out the more we think about Aerith, the more we grieve and want her to come back. How can this be remedied? Well...logically only by making her the villain and Sephiroth the hero, who can only be redeemed by individuating from his delusions about his mother by meeting his actial mother, the one who loves him with Aerith ending up being a prodigee of Jenova all along, like Cloud was of Sephiroth (his puppet). Crazy...yeah. but you started talk ng about Aerith being erased and the aoologizing for it, I only thought of returning the favor. If she is a Goddess, then Cloud is the recipient of her gift...as in she is alive only in his, multilayered world full of fractured memories, some of which he shares with reality, while others he is unable to because they are deep and endless like the ocean of life itself...One way or the other he is very much like Aerith, he's been exposed, burned, electrocuted...call it whatever you want, but there is no going back...which is also a primary motif in the game. (No getting off this train). He will grow old, and the older he becomes, the clearer his mind and the more vivid and meaningful his dates with Aerith will become, until one day she will turn up alive. Hence my theory that Cloud is actually the Chocobo Sage from the future 😊 I legit hope seeing a grandma Aerith. They always felt like a wise elderly couple from the beyond to me.

Aerith being alive in a different world will sell and make more money for square. But they fully intend to keep the story beats canon… and we know what that implies, unfortunately

Theme of the game is defying fate, it will not make sense if she doesn’t make it.. devs stated they will give a happy ending this time. Also aerith is the heart of FF7 so deleting her permanently will make zero sense. I get that some of you want it that way for nostalgia purposes?,but I believe things changed now.. they were working for so long this project just to keep it the same ? In some capacity we will still have her .. maybe even immortalised

Having faith is kind of the opposite of soyboy to me now
