One thing i don't like about rebirth is the dialogue. It really undervalues Aerith's feelings for cloud. She admits she likes him but is vague about it. And her actions proves that she more than "likes" him. She's clearly in love with him.
i guess it depends how you read the “but ‘like’ can mean a lot of things” line. i think it was her way of trying to get cloud to understand she likes him as more than just as a friend since he’s really dense😭 but it’s also possible she’s downplaying her feelings because this version of aerith knows her fate. it’s similar to the dream scene sequence in remake where she tells cloud not to fall in love with her to spare cloud the heartbreak of losing her. the devs even said “her words contradict her true feelings” so maybe the same thing is happening here.
I agree with you, in the end it felt like she friendzoned Cloud 😂 We have to wait until the next game to see if the devs want to really end the love triangle officialy or if there is still hope for Cloud and Aerith and she was just trying to cope with her feelings.
Эти чувства, глубже чем обычная влюбленность. За него без упреков отдает свою жизнь. Пытается его успокоить, беспокоится за него до последнего момента. Думает, что если прямо не скажет ему Я тебя люблю, ему будет не так больно. Высшая форма любви, если он не придет за ней и не найдет способ вернуть ее, буду очень разочарован в сценаристах Square Enix.
Damn I finish the game and break my 💔 never got a chance to play the OG game and the Final Fantasy 7 Remake was new for me I dont know why but when I play my first time and see Aerith I fall in love with the her personality is more than beautiful, but when she say whatever happens you can't fall in love with me That break my heart and yes I know she dies in the og too but Rebirth just give me hope when i see Cloud blocking Sephiroth Sword I just hope one day we can see them together I still think Clerith deserve a happy ending😢
I really can't figure out what the devs intended with the whole relationship stuff in this game and the four main participants, so I'm checking these shipping stan type videos just to read other peoples thoughts lol. I feel like C/A is pushed the most by far however there is a C/T kiss and then there's some A/Z hope moments like Aerith looking back to Midgar and feeling Zack's touch in the cave of the Gi, the "maybe" and "liking vs liking" line, Zack also getting the Yellow flower, heck the whole Zack being alive now subplot. C/T gets a kiss but somehow if feels less intimate than most of the C/A moments, especially the hand-holding scene which feels more romantic than a kiss tbh. If Aerith is saveable this time around it does feel like C/A is the intended route. I suppose an early tell for C/A in P3 will be if Leslie's Merle is saveable in a sidequest in Wutai, because he too has a silver lover's flower necklace. It's so all over the place at least to me, so I'm still thinking about the whole setup and just getting confused like 3 days after beating the game. Maybe this is the intended reaction to keep interest up but I think it's just going to annoy shippers of all the different characters when they are forced to pick in P3. Personally, I don't really care who each of C/A/T/Z end up with, I like them all but I just feel like the devs themselves have set way too many flags for different ships that people will be angry in the end if X doesn't get Y...
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 - Cloud x Aerith are the ultimate star-crossed lovers 🗡️💫🎀
ty!! for the remake scenes i recorded the game myself without subs and music. as for the rebirth scenes, i got clips from youtube (mainly sirloin’s channel) and isolated the music from the dialogue.
How did she friendzone him? Cloud didn’t confess, or give her any reason to bring the subject of liking up. Which she does in both the low and high versions of that scene. If she only saw him as a friend, she would have no reason to talk about what she does when she had no reason to. She can’t even look at him the whole time she’s speaking about it, showing her nervousness. When she says “thank you” he gasps, and she nervously brushes it off. It’s likely a translation from Japanese as it can be used to confess feelings. As for the date, they walk, which is what Cloud said is his ideal date when talking to Aerith in Costa Del Sol. They eat sweets, pose for pictures, and she even gets a yellow flower brooch as a gift from him, bringing it full circle to how he got a yellow flower from her on their first meeting. And can’t forget the theme song, which references where they both met, with not one mention of Zack.
Keep telling yourself that when you know she fell in love with Cloud and Cloud fell in love with her but wants to make sure she is over Zack and know he knows she is, Aerith will be back in game three there are so many hints of Cloud and her reuniting
@@ugh5281Well to be fair the only time you see the words 'FF7 fans' and 'media literacy' in the same sentence is if the words 'don't have' are between them.
