One thing regarding Genesis that I found no one pointed out, it's the apple juice posters in Remake. The apple juice poster is a very important detail, because it shows that Banora is still existing in Remake (not bombed into smithereens like in CC). And the fact that it is "apple juice" not just "apple" is a clear indication that Genesis is around, because the apple juice is a signature invention of Genesis, as stated in CC, he was awarded for inventing it.

@@Sleepezi Actually, Banora's Underground is a very impressive area. I think you have dug it up in Crisis Core, because fighting a Behemoth there is fun. However, I think you could have missed one important detail, the doors and their keys. The Banora's Underground dungeon is like a prison dungeons with many doors and you need to get the key. One specific door, the one that you can reach after beating the Behemoth, needs to be opened with the "Goddess Wing Key". And the symbol on that door is very much similar to Genesis' wing (it is a left wing with the exact same shape). This could indicate that Genesis' wing is called as "Goddess Wing" for real, which for sure shows that Genesis is more than just a Sephiroth-wannabe.

@@BuffaloBorgine FFRK (a FF mobile spinoff) makes a funny distinction between the two. Sephiroth is presented as an unambiguous villain ("deep hatred for humanity", "plans to destroy the planet", skill names like "Heartless Angel", "Demonic Lord", "Jenova's Echo" etc., Genesis is much more ambiguous. His descriptions are all about his friendships, SOLDIER (he's described as a "rebel" SOLDIER, not a fallen one like Sephiroth) and weird semi-religious stuff ("Epic of Creation", "Epic of Destruction", "Epic of Heroism").

Genesis has some very ambiguous description through the materias, like "Twister Creator" ("Distorted Creator" in JP), "G-project Creation" ("G-cells Harborer" in JP") and some more ambiguous things.

I can hardly find the words, I'm just flabbergasted.

You explain the whole thing so unambiguously in a well-edited video - it's just overwhelming! And yet it almost seems as if this was easy for you xD Thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us and not going crazy!

What a ride that was. Thanks for another extremely well put video.

Thanks again, Sleepezi. I was always confused over why Prez Shinra was left hanging off the side instead of being killed outright. People have guessed that it was Sephiroth, but I doubted it. It doesn't make sense for Seph to leave the guy hanging, only to kill him for real moments later. If the writers only wanted to show how Seph is the real big bad, they could have had Prez killed the same way as in the OG, but they changed this scene entirely. So I figured that Rufus probably had something to do with it, but I couldn't connect the dots until now. It only makes sense that other Avalanche members were there at HQ for Wedge to contact them. Like, how else would he have done so, call them? With what number? It does beg the question: if these Main Avalanche guys were there to assassinate the Prez, why would they leave him hanging? My only guess is that they tried to kill him, but Prez suspected something was up and tried to escape. Too bad he somehow bungled his way out and ended up like that. The Avalanche guys didn't bother to help him back up and left. Kinda sloppy job on their part, but they didn't expect anyone else to be there anyway. And then came along Barret's gang to ruin Rufus' plans yet again. Tangent, but this would make an amazing Ace Attorney case to solve if only the actual murderer wasn't in your face 24/7, _Sephiroth_ ! Anyway, I also remembered Rufus' plan here is also hinted during his line to Cloud about how he "owns" him. Even when Cloud denied it because he's "Ex-Soldier", Rufus smirked to himself, knowing that since Cloud is a part of Avalanche now, nothing changed. He still does own him. At least until Cloud slapped him around with his sword and killed his dog. Poor Dark Star. He just wanted treats and head pats after the fight. :( But I guess Rufus wasn't too broken up about him. He still has his new pet Cloud.

Agreed. This boy is a freakin' genius to tie all these things together. This man could be a private detective because no detail would get past him. No wonder it took Square Enix so long to release FF7 Remake & Intergrade since the last major FF7 release, because all these things had to interweave & fit perfectly. I am glad they took their time to get it right. The writing & story-boarding had to be so intentional & precise to give love & attention & respect to all these previous stories, to fit them all in. And even though they have so much going on, it is awesome to see how much time they gave to the original intention of the creator for Cloud & Aerith's epic love story, with Tifa created as a side character later on because they needed a female character that didn't die. Don't get me wrong, I love Tifa too, but Remake was so much a story about Aerith as an Ancient, just meshing perfectly with Cloud's path, it was so refreshing to see how much time & effort they gave the two of them in building that beautiful relationship. And since Fate &/or Destiny has been 'defeated', all bets are off now for new timelines so there is a chance that Aerith might survive this time! Even Sephiroth asked Cloud what he was going to do this time around with his "7 seconds," which is the exact time it took for him last time to descend & stab Aerith. So even Sephiroth seems to know how things happened last time, & is curious how things will turn out in this timeline. Now that Intergrade is out, obviously all the things predicted in this video didn't happen, but SO MUCH that was predicted did happen, which is just mind blowing. My guess is that those events will be in the next few releases, just because they can't put everything in one game -- it would be too much & each character would feel rushed & cheated if you only get them for a few seconds in a cameo. Better to spend more time with fewer characters, per release. Very happy with what Square Enix is doing & can't wait to see what they do in the future. :-)

Fantastic video Sleepezi, everything you pointed out is very interesting and I agree 100% that the Avalanche HQ members are the same people Barret mentions.

I remember reading that sector 6 plate fall being related to Zirconiade but as I never played BC I just assumed that was real, so glad we got some clarification lol! It was really cool to hear about the Dirge multiplayer story for the first time and I'm excited to see Shelkes involvment in Remake in regards to Chadley ;) The audio mix was better in this video but still had some rough spots mainly when the hype music came on as you mentioned Genesis. Can't wait to see what you got cooking next and looking forward to the rest of your FF7 playthrough

I'm so hype for what Square is trying to do with the ff7 storyline.

If the reception of Intergrade encourages the devs, I could very well see them making a trend of rolling up compilation materials into these DLC intermissions. At least up until whatever point this new crux of no predestination they've introduced. Nomura's statement of still hitting all the known story beats from OG could easily hold true in this case, with the loss of the whispers allowing alternate "cycles" to spiral off course, such as Zack's seemingly new survival of a fight I assume he whispers ensured we lost in crisis core. In any event, love the speculation and you make some stellar content👍 Thanks for all the hard work!

40:18 "He is now in control of Shinra, AVALANCHE and now in Remake is directly tied to Wutai. This man literally has control over all of the major players of any conflict..." Rufus Shinra is the Littlefinger/Petyr Baelish of Final Fantasy VII's world!

Maybe Zack's story in Rebirth will start in Midgar (and I say start, because I can't see him staying there the whole game while Clouds party is adventuring), and that's where Genesis is revealed or eluded to? Idk, I just think something that involves Genesis will be Zack's catalyst for leaving Midgar and doing similar story beats to Clouds party. (I hope that all made sense 😅).

Thanks a lot for the video! great stuff as always!

Thats a great work you have done in this video.

I like how you see all kinds of steel pieces when walking with Aeirth. It shows a pat long forgotten

Love love love this!

Glad you love love love it!! that alone is extremely gratifying!

"and square, I love it!" You and me both, you have provided a labour of love with these videos and with that, I tip my hat to thee.

I just want to say, this is my favorite video of yours. Not to disparage any of your other videos, I think quite highly of all of them so this one being my favorite is intended to be high-praise as opposed to criticism of the others. The reason for that is how you educated me on the obscure lore. I feel like I am overtly familiar with the lore in OG and Crisis Core. Before Crisis, Dirge and it’s multiplayer mode…that’s where you peak my interest. Your ability to sell the importance of that lore, and theorize around reasonably ingratiating the currently outstanding compilation concepts into the new RE trilogy is something I can listen to over and over.

Sounds like a trap card in Yugioh lolll And Rufus is basically Kaiba

Yesss 3hrs of my work day already gone by..thanks for the vid😁

Hey mate, great to see you back :) Loved the vid and I can't wait to see how they flesh out Deepground :)

WHAT IF Genesis is the one to kill Sephiroth in the end with Cloud. Sacrificing himself and becoming the hero he always wanted. And it all starts here on Intermissionz

Loveless has interesting things to say about that. According to the Word of God, after CC Genesis accepts the role of the Prisoner - the guy who in the story of Loveless almost dies, gets healed by a woman from an enemy faction, hangs out with her for a while, and ultimately leaves to have a fight to the death with his former friend the Wanderer and probably die in the process, saving the world. The first two events have already happened in canon: Genesis almost died, got saved by the Planet/Minerva (remember, as a Jenova Project creature he's technically Team Enemy for her and vice versa), so now we're waiting for the part where he leaves his seclusion, fights Sephiroth (who's literally wandering the Planet and the Lifestream) and dies fighting him to usher that "all-healing salvation" ending he had apparently always thought the story would end with. The Prisoner's role is not very heroic in the classic sense - he's the most conflicted of the three, he willingly dies at the hands of his dear friend, and gets no accolades for it. But it helps to save the world, so there's that.

@@DMulisha13 I'm not entirely sure. Sephiroth implies at the end of Part 1 that there is yet another force operating behind the scenes, that he needs Cloud's help to stop. During that scene, he acts more human than he has at any point since Nibelheim. It's possible that Cloud's party literally Breaking Fate has set him free from the role of Villain as well. He may have been referring to Deepground, and its many threats.

Keep up the work bruh. I absolutely 🥰😍 the ff7 franchise. I'm fresh to ur channel but Ive dabbled in all "FF Peasant" theories and was recommended to this vid. So I'm gonna start checking ur old vids out B4 I tune back in to this one. 👍🏾 And sub

I super appreciate you checking it out! and I very much hope you enjoy the ride!

When sleepezi points out the parallels between the particles in before crisis, remake, and doc and then also points out the similar way that weiss picks genesis up in crisis core compared to genesis picking up weiss in doc.. my head is still tingling.. I know this is so late but I loove this man when he is theorizing

Man, you got me so excited to see where the remake is headed, knowing they're incorporating from the whole compilation. So many questions though, but i cant wait to see where they go with it. I hope we get news about FFVIIR part2 soon, maybe at the 25th anniversary next month!

@Sleepezi, Thank you so, so much for what you do. I don't even find the right words to explain just how grateful I am. I was supposed to work from home, and I was like "nice, I'll hear your video in background while working"... And you know what ? The first minutes were so good that I stopped working and watched the whole video this morning without taking a break. I mean, I love this game, I'm so passionate about FFVII too, but if someone one day asks me "Do you know who is the biggest fan on FFVII ?" I'll answer without a single doubt : Sleepezi. So again, thank you so much dude, thank you for sharing your passion like no one else, and for the amazing quality of your videos. Sidenote : Something tells me that if SE watches your video, they'll be like "Well, that guy just spoiled our DLC" x)

I know how many people love this game. and I just love expressing this stuff to you guys. I also would like to say that so much of this is thanks to you guys being so supportive. I genuinely cannot believe just how cool all of you guys have been since the beginning So the gratitude goes both ways. Thank you so much.

What if I told you.......that I liked the video before watching it.

What an amazing deep dive, you hero. Roll on June 10th. 🎉

This was such a fantastic video, well worth the 3 hours. I actually watched it after seeing the final trailer, and tbh it makes me a bit disappointed that the great connections you’ve made here won’t necessarily be the case in the game. I am excited for it nonetheless, but I loved the way you laid out the story yourself. Great work as always.

Disclaimer: After watching the "New Official Trialer". We later find out that Sonon's actual sister is named Melfie or Melphie (Which ever you prefer to spell her name) and not/instead of Shelke Rui. I find that Melphie totally looks identical to Yuffie as if they were twin sisters imo...

As someone pointed out in another video, Melphie looks a bit like a cross between Tifa and Yuffie. Would be interesting if she and Yuffie were cousins or something, though.

I would love to see this done right. So I am with you there. lets just hope that it is.

What a wonderful documentary! You should definitely go on Maximilian's podcast and do a "big brain" discussion what Square intends to do with FF7R in relation to the compilation series. Probably the most impactful point you've made is Square's desire to retell arguably the most disliked entry in the FF7 series. They could have easily just retconned the entire thing, but decide to tackle it heads on. I love FF7, but I only have a rudimentary understanding of the story, but your video helps .. a LOT.

I very much appreciate this! a lot of time I spend writing is trying to do my best not to leave anyone who isn't familiar to the series behind. Especially since the Compilation is such an unknown to so many people. Also Max was a huge inspiration to me making these vids to begin with. So talking to him about Remake would be a dream come true! Hopefully one day I can get to speak with him! Either way, thank you for watching and commenting!

​@@Sleepezi I just re-watched your analysis of Avalanche HQ. I think you've hit it on the head about their plan to attack Shinra HQ. I'm beginning to think that Zack was alive the entire time, and he's been working with Avalanche HQ. This would answer some questionable maneuvers by the Whispers that I couldn't quite solve.. When Wedge attempts to leave Shinra HQ and rejoin the others, the Whispers intervened and it is heavily implied that he was thrown out the window and plunged to his death -- not unlike his fate in OG. Why? Because he met with Zack while in Sector 5 when meeting up with the members of Avalanche HQ to ask for their help. If he would have made it out, he could have spilled the beans that he met Zack. The flashback in Chapter 13 is another example of the Whispers intervening for reasons unknown. When Barrett blasts a whole in the wall leading to a room in the underground laboratory, Cloud peeks in and has a flashback. At first, it seemed that the memory being recounted went back to the time he and Zack was held in the Shinra Mansion for 4 years. However, this cannot be. For one, he was not being held in liquid mako as seen in the OG/CC when Zack awakens. Speaking of awakening, in this flashback, you clearly see Cloud regain consciousness and opens his eyes. He seems alert and coherent. This definitely could not be during the Nibelheim incident as he didn't regain consciousness until after Zack's fatal encounter with the Shinra militia. Lastly, in this flashback, you clearly see Cloud is wearing the SOLDIER outfit. If this was merely a flashback to the Nibelheim incident, he'd still be wearing his infantry uniform. It seems to me that the timing of this flashback is a subtle hint to the player that Cloud (and Zack) was in this underground facility before. Again, the Whispers appeared and impeded any further progress into this room. Why? Because there may have been evidence that he and Cloud were in that room. What I've been doing lately is documenting any changes from the OG to FF7R's timeline, mostly dialogue-wise. The findings are very interesting. For example, the mention of Kunsel by a Shinra infantryman. You've pointed out that Kunsel would have known about the underground laboratory under Sector 7. Or what about Hojo suggesting to breed Aerith (which was also in the OG) with "someone" with "S" or "G" cells (that line was NOT in OG). Speaking of Hojo, do you find it odd that when Barrett tells him that the only reason why Aerith returned to Shinra was because of Marlene, Hojo says that he "misunderstood", but declines to elaborate? Barrett's recounting of the three people who he worked with at Avalanche HQ (Nellie, Al, and Finn). The same three who appears at the very beginning of Yuffie's story. Going back to your Avalanche HQ, you so eloquently pointed out that Avalanche HQ's goal was to get to the President, and there were plans specifically how to reach his office. Someone DID reach that office and whatever happened left the President dangling off the edge of the helipad. Who did that (since we know it wasn't Yuffie/Sonon)?? Who got Wedge out of harm's way and got him underground? We've been thinking that Zack was dead during the events of FF7R as in the OG, but that should be the last thing we should assume. I think the true "red herring" in all this is the intro with Cloud riding on the train. We assumed we know what happened leading up to that, but perhaps we're all wrong on that...

Another total banger! SUBBED
