Max jokingly says "NSYNC" seconds before the reveal. Lance Bass was a member of NSYNC. Lance Bass was also, at one point, the voice of Sephiroth. In the loosest way possible, Max called the reveal.
The fact that Sephiroth wasn't even invited, and he just showed up just to torment Cloud in a different universe, is a whole new level of chaotic evil.
If I had a nickel of how many times Max will say "F*** you" to a FF Character joining Super Smash Bros, I will pick 2. Which is not a lot, but surprised it happened twice. XD
I think this is the third time he has said “fuck you” to final fantasy 7 since I think during the direct that was announcing FF7 on switch, those were his first words.
I had no fucking clue. Fortnite zoomers were saying it was gonna be that soldier guy and I was zoned out for this reveal so I assumed they knew something I didn't. I had negative hype. Fucking Fortnite? Get outta here. I haven't been this surprised in years. When that first note of One Winged Angel started playing my brain had a primal reaction and I knew immediately but still didn't believe it.
Pretty much like very few people expected Cloud in Sm4sh AFAIK. Both characters were some of the most satisfying surprises I've ever had concerning video games.
@@clawofthefallen yeah, it's chock full of references. When he says he's giving Smash despair, I'm pretty sure that is a direct reference to a line he says just as he starts fighting Cloud.
@@TheHeartThatRunsCold I like the Advent Children movie a lot actually... It's been a while since I've watched it though, a few years. So, I can't remember everything about it.
@@TheHeartThatRunsCold you and me both! As soon as he said "Stay where you belong.." I was like OHHHH THEY'RE DOING IT! And proceeded to finish the rest of their dialog with them 🤣
@@kisaragireion why are people still getting excited afte being kicked around by nintendo ? What kind of stockholm syndrome nonsense is this ? Is it really this easy to forget what they did ?
2015: The year FF7R was announced, Cloud gets into smash, Max dies of happiness 2020: The year FF7R was released, Sephiroth gets into smash, Max dies of happiness It's like nothing has changed in the last 5 years lol!
And sarcastically said NSYNC (Lance Bass was the first voice for Sephiroth) when Kenny started singing Backstreet Boys. Max unintentionally called this
@@rotciv557 Sephiroth: don’t forget your girlfriend too. Mario: mouth drops in shock Cloud: grrrr....why you little!.... Mario: OooooKkkkkkk! This is too much for me! Thank you goodbye!
@@AoVis but then in response to plot armor hindering his way sephiroth broke the space-time continuum to go back in time, defy fate, and get another chance at cloud. cloud will probably still win, but if he has plot armor sephiroth has a plot sword
The entire god damn journey I've seen in Max's channel: From the FF7 remaster reaction, to the FF7 remake announcement, to Cloud getting into smash, to the release of FF7:R, and now Sephiroth in Smash. Just a magical experience.
Even though at 2:05 they clearly don't show it. Seph blocked clouds attack while still having Mario on the tip of his blade, that's so ruthless. Edit: over 900+ Likes! Thank you all very much!!! ❤❤❤❤
@@woss7390 he likes it as a 4 to 8 players ffa, and as a crossover in general, he doesnt care about getting good at it because the online is trash, but he puts a lot of time into the game casually
@@woss7390 max said "i would try to play seriously at smash bros 1vs1 serious... IF ONLY ONLINE WASN'T SO MUCH TRASH!" and so, he like ultimate a lot as a fanservice game, play funny with friend (with items) but not would try to play serious because he not have the possibility to play 1vs1 vs real players
I love how terrified Mario was before and after the stab. If you look closely, his eyes/eyebrows/lips were trembling when the sword was holding him up. Mario usually doesn’t show fear. But he met a foe that is a true threat. Lol.
This is bound to get lost in the sea of comments, but this trailer made me get ff7 and a ps1. Sephiroth is so cool and it's about time I see what people are on about. Wish me luck
I know this a late comment but after seeing this and listening to more of Ff7 I thinking about getting the OG game on switch just to see what the buzz is all about this character
Smash community: "We're *sick* of all these swordsman Sakurai!" Sakurai: "Oh, so I guess you DON'T want _Sephiroth..."_ Also Smash Community: "Well what we meant to say was... We're tired of all of the *Fire Emblem* characters."
@@AndresCofreD for several reasons: 1. Dante's bad ass 2. He's not exclusively a swordsman 3. He has charisma that's quite literally out of this world 4. Having someone like Dante crossover into something like Smash brings all the more hype back into the game
See, the amount of Fire Emblem characters wouldn't be so bad if they all used different weapons found in the games. I want an Axe user or an Archer or something.
The problem is: Sephiroth may find a new rival in Smash. Another character who has a sword with enormous range, who can also fight without a shirt and who is at least as strong as Cloud in canon.
@@DarkGamer364 It would be fucking hilarious if Shulk jumped into the fight while Cloud and Sephdog were having their little powwow and surprised Sephiroth by extending his blade even longer than his, scoring a hit. Sephiroth: " *Ooh* " Shulk: "Why do I feel like I made a horrible mistake?" Cloud: 'Wait, does this mean that he's gonna stop stalking me?'
Sephiroth’s character select panel will right next to Steve’s. Just the fact that is a reality is insane. Reminds me of the Brawl mods back in the day.
@Lyon The other guy noticed Sephiroths theme immediately.... Max didn't until the guy said something. The other guy also called out the northern crater stage too.
Look at my avatar. I am just as giddy hearing those first notes as I would be if I saw a keyblade. Cloud vs Sephiroth is the peak of Square in Smash, and I will take the lack of Sora for the raw hype this has.
In this trailer Sephiroth vanquished the world of light boss...but who will conquer the other boss? The world of darkness boss? Fucking Sora thats who.
Both, both is good I wanted Sora but Sephiroth is definitely what Smash needed. Not enough villians, speaking of which I think he's the first 3rd party villain to be playable
Still love coming back to watch this from time to time. Sakurai busting out the fancy cgi for Sephiroth is great. Just "I have a chance to do cool advent children stuff. FINALLY." I mean how could you NOT make something this special for Sephiroth?
I think MOST of us were thinking of Max and was expecting him to flip out as SOON as we saw Sephiroth.... WELL I DIDN’T BECAUSE I WAS TO HYPED TO THINK OF ANYTHING ELSE! AND I DON’T EVEN PLAY FINAL FANTASY! LETS FUCKING GO!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
While I was walking to work today, a raven feather fell in front of me. I didn’t think much of it at the time. Now I know what it was. It foreshadowed Sephiroth
That really is wild. Even people who didn’t have a PS1 in the 90s would’ve known who Sephiroth is because the early 2000s were littered with FF7 on just about any gaming related website you could find. Aerith’s death was constantly getting spoiled for anyone who didn’t play the game at that time.
Dude, a bunch of people didn't even recognize Galeem, the villain in Smash itself. I'm not even surprised anymore by normies ability to float through life in a fog.
@@settingittowumbo1953 Kirby and Sonic are canonically the only people in the roster capable of dealing with Sephiroth. As powerful as some of the other characters are, Sephiroth stomps most of the roster effortlessly. Cloud honestly has never defeated the full power Sephiroth alone, so while he would put up a fight, he wouldn't win. Both Kirby and Sonic have defeated Multiversal level Gods, (Void Termina and Solaris, respectively) which scales way beyond anything Sephiroth can dish out. Super Sonic can easily cancel Supernova, because it's a dimensional hax, and he has Chaos Control. Kirby has survived Galaxy Busting explosions without a scratch, such as the death of Void Termina. This makes Supernova completely useless. Illusions are not likely to defeat them either, because Kirby is so adaptable, and Sonic defeated the wielder of the Phantom Ruby, which has equal illusion power to Sephiroth, AND the ability to disrupt the Chaos Emeralds, making Super form impossible. There's no way Sephiroth can even damage either of them. That's a shitstomp.
@@SomaCruztheDemigodofBalance I think Bayonetta likely has a chance as well. Especially if we consider her victory over Balder the Infinite One as canon.
@@BJGvideos At no point in time was Balder ever on the level of Sephiroth. Bayonetta's best bet would be to dodge-tank literally everything and call for backup, because if she's hit once, she's dead. Her durability is nowhere near Kirby or even Base Sonic. Plus, she doesn't have any special protection against dimensional hax and illusions, which are Sephiroth's heavy hitters. Cloud puts up a good fight for awhile, but without a team to back him up, a full power Sephiroth would decimate him eventually. Bayonetta's a good choice to back up Cloud, because she already has experience with Magic, so he could just lend her some Materia. If Dante showed up, he'd probably change the whole fight, because he fought a Universal level Demon Emperor in his first game, and absolutely wrecked him. DMC5 Dante would actually be able to take Sephiroth alone, because he's fought even crazier. He'd get smoked by Kirby and Sonic, though. He'd probably laugh it off, afterwards.
This was almost like when you fight Sephiroth in kingdom hearts and it's completely unexpected but the music kicks in and you know what you're in for. Same energy.
Man, you're right. It totally _is_ the same energy... God, I still remember my first encounter with Sephy in KH. I had just played through FFX before I started playing KH and my first reaction upon seeing the seal in the sky was "Wait, Bahamut?!" ...and then I saw that it was NOT Bahamut... And then I fukken died because I was still just level 65 and no-where near ready for a fight against Sephiroth... And then I plugged my PS1 right back in and replayed FFVII all over again.
I swear when i saw Sephiroth i thought "I bet Max is losing his mind right now". And i get it, Sephiroth is not what people wanted... IT WAS WAY BETTER FFS!
