Yeah it's very important that they showed the flowers are still alive! The real Aerith is alive somewhere with Zack. That is 100 percent

I personally think there are three Aeriths at the end. You have regular original timeline aerith, who has supposedly died…. You have future Aerith, who is aware, and who sephiroth has been looking for, also controls the white whispers…. And then I think jenova may be using aerith’s likeness to mess with cloud. I could be wrong on the last one, but at one point during one of the scenes, she looked weird. Like her eyes were bigger than usual, almost making her look alien like….. it might have been a graphical error though.

She really had problems with eye expressions from the final CGI, but I think it's because she's trying to hold back in front of Cloud, she look cheerful, carefree, but it's all fake. When she turned away from him, you could see the real emotions on her face. I would also note the Japanese voice acting of the heroine, she sounds like she's holding back crying.

You get it. For omni aerith to exist, current one needs to die. Marlene is talking about omni aerith dying. Zack tells Cloud to save omni aerith too. We're going to save omni aerith, not the one that just died.

Aerith is an ancient one , and in original she was adopted from her mother( as vessel )that you met. Also Aerith control the earth stream and she is linked with real jenova ( not the clones of hojo that you met) .In final fantasy 7 advent children the white hai guys ( the clones of sephiroth that also called sephiroth and cloud as their brothers ) call Aerith "mother"" ,she also mention it in end in church as ghost with zack in vision of cloud """ why all they call me mother??""". I think Aerith.....propably she was part of jenova or she is jenova ( the real one , not the clones of hojo).If you remember the ff7 original story only aerith is last survivors of ancient and hojo did experiments to her mother,propably he used the real part of jenova to recreat throught born jenova in human body.Even cloud sometimes acted towards to Aerith as like he was his mother,becouse he shared a link with her too throught earths stream and mako. I am thinking.........maybe you will face Aerith as jenova in this remake edition.......and as far i saw....it lead there, becouse when you was with Aerith ,you sense sephiroth close you ......and that you see and fight....isn"t the real form/body of sephiroth ,the real sephiroth is in the crater trapped (always he was there from the start until you went there and he released as the end boss)

There's unlimited Aerith as long as she keep splitting timelines

I think the aerith talking to him with the creepy music and the aerith who pets cait sith are 2 different enteties. The one who pets cait was the aerith from the timeline where she survived who is strying to stop the new sephiroth and the aerith who talks to him is the equivalent of the vision of sephiroth keeping him from realizing the aerith from this timeline actually died. Its why she made him promise to fight sephiroth instead of making him promise to take care of himself. Thats the impression i got I can also totally see them makeing zack a party member in the next game

Another thing to mention: Zack’s timeline addresses what happens if the fans got what they wanted in crisis core. Where Zack survives the final fight instead of dying. We know though through this timeline, There will be no one to stop Sephiroth. With the whole team either dying or being taken for experimentation without the interaction of Cloud, it is an apocalyptic world which without any intervention, it will come to an end. Also, Zack dies again by the hand of Shinra close to the end of Rebirth if he chooses to go see Hojo for a cure for cloud, but another timeline gets created where he chooses to go after Biggs. Biggs dies instead in this timeline. I hate to say it, but Zack seems like he has to die in order to live. His spirit, just like Aerith moves in the lifestream, probably because of Aerith The key to success here is what was said in the end between Cloud and Aerith: Only Cloud can defeat Sephiroth and at Aerith can save the planet. Which I why I do continue to believe that while there are added elements to the story, the story is still going to play out very similarly to the original storyline. That does unfortunately mean that “Prime” Aerith is actually dead, which serves a purpose. Without Aerith dying, the white whispers would not be there to take war against the black whispers and her interaction with the lifestream would not happen which would have caused holy and meteor to destroy the planet, basically rip it apart from the clash itself. The events in some shape or form have to be the same. The question is: will there this time be a full eradication of Sephiroth, or will he always be a lingering memory? It would definitely make sense that the next game is Titled Final Fantasy 7: Reunion, because there will be a bunch. The Reunion of the Worlds, The Reunion of Fragmented Cloud, The Reunion of Zack and Aerith (which we know they are together in Advent Children) The Reunion of Tifa and Unfragmented Cloud (which their storyline is crucial in the next game), also the Reunion of Cloud and Sephiroth, as he manipulates him to become more powerful and destroy the only person that has come against him and won in the process. Small thought, anytime we look at Sephiroth, we must remember that because he is created using jenova cells, HE IS JENOVA. Sephiroth is the puppet. We can dress it up with a pretty name and awesome sword, but he is Jenova. Take Angeal and Genesis for a second: Angeal was able to make his own decision, even going against Zack so that he could kill him. Genesis had his search for the Goddess at all cost so he can take care of his degradation issue. Sephiroth is actually a true Jenova clone. No degradation, with the power to corrupt minds and even corrupt the lifestream. He is Jenova’s offspring. A “son of a god” that has all power granted to him, so to speak. Hojo, you done goofed! This is the real villain of this game. Even after realizing his mistake on confusing Jenova for an Ancient, he is just like “oh well, let’s keep doing more experiments and track this project, and see how it pans out.” Ok last thought…. The link to a perception of Christianity is big in this game. Jenova can be looked at as their version of Jehovah, but of course it is a dark god. Sephiroth is Christ but in this story, Sephiroth is here to destroy and not to save. If you have Jenova inside you, (thanks Hojo) you can be forced to do the bidding of Jenova, where as Jehovah wants free will to make decisions. Jenova’s plan is to destroy the world while Jehovah and his Son’s plan is to save it. And Advent Children was the Second coming of Jenova’s son, compared to the Second Coming of Christ. Ok I’m done.

It can't be FF7 Reunion because they already used that name for Crisis Core. But yeah! I think you nailed it. It's important to understand that Aerith and Zack are traversing the Lifestream, and their consciousnesses live on because they still have a role they have to fulfill in order to save the world. Remember, the Lifestream IS the energy of the Planet itself, and it has some level of precognition / timeless-ness, which we saw very clearly in both the OG and Remake storylines so far. The Lifestream is actively working toward saving itself.

They all survive , the series is a soft reboot, the need them all alive for spinoffs

The burial scene was quickly glimpsed in a flashback scene. I believe we will still see that scene after Cloud “finds himself” in the third game.

I also think another world split when Cloud blocked the sword one where Aerith lived (it just wasn't ours), but I also don't think Zack is back in his original Terrier Stamp world at the end. I think his world is already gone, that his world was the one where he faught Sephiroth as meteor was decending bc in that world, the flowers were dying, everything was dying. But when he awakens in the church, the flowers there are fine. So I also think the comatose Aerith and Cloud from his world are dead, BUT, it seems there are more versions of them in other worlds bc after Aerith and Cloud fall down into the Temple of the Ancients left behind crater, they clearly wake up in a world where their counter parts were comatose (Cloud gets up from a wheel chair) just like in Zack's Terrier timeline, but they make sure to show us it's not that timeline by showing us the Stamp on packages in the market while Aerith and Cloud are hanging out is not the Terrier. So there are clearly comatose bodies they can take over or something in other worlds. Or if they are still alive in Zack's original Terrier timeline, I don't think he's there with them, and I want them reunited (plus Tifa lol). 😔

Amazing commentary my friend! Loved the theory. You are definitely cooking!!

Blame "Doctor Strange and Spiderman" for that tear in the sky? (Anyone else get this?)

Aerith is "dead" in the same way she was "dead" in the original FF7. Her consciousness continues to exist within the Lifestream, it has to for her plan to succeed. We'll see the Burial scene in Cloud's psyche when we're repairing Cloud's mind. I'm sure of it. Zack will surely be involved in that sequence this time as well. Also, important detail about the ending you missed: Yes, Cloud sees the rift in the sky in the ending... but only one part of it. When Cloud talks to Aerith outside the Tiny Bronco, the rift is GONE. There's SO MUCH going on in this ending.

Great breakdown and analysis. Thank you.

There’s only 1 version of our characters and 1 prime world, and those who are strong willed and have not accepted death will be put into one of these worlds to have a chance to live out what they need to/come to terms with death. A Woman npc in Cosmo Canyon also mentions this. (But more thinking to do for me!) great video!

Closed minded people man i tell ya. My take. In remake, they showed and explained Elmyra and Aeriths past. Super short, super vague. It was mid at best on the feels radar. Then in rebirth, they revisit that in the trials and the delivery was wayyy different and it hit way harder. This death scene is basically what the past scene was in remake and will be revisited in part 3, and it'll hit way harder. Step 1. Introduce them with the idea of multiple worlds through lifestream ( internet calls it timelines, but not once did they mention that term) with Zack and all that. Step 2: showcase the unstable metal state of clouds mind. Step 3: mix the two😈. What is real?...what is fake?... These are the ingredients to put the players in clouds' perspective as much as possible. The third game will definitely have that sad part that everyone yerns for in this game. And it'll hit even harder. I'm guessing it's when clouds mind gets fixed, and he realizes she actually died and was in his head the whole time. There is a reason the "water burial" scene is missing. There is a reason there were no dog indicators during that whole sequence. There is a reason all aerith and cloud interaction scenes are all missing in the credits roll. And as far as "what timeline do I care about!? There are so many" these aren't "timelines" don't let cheesy marvel ideas get mixed in. There is only one cloud and one aerith "spirit" in the multiple worlds of one "lifestream" this is why when one is awake in 1, the others are unconscious. This is only a fraction of how this works that is known we still have very little knowledge on all this, but that should be answered in the 3rd game. As long as they deliver, we'll get the feeling we wanted in the next game.

This is the conclusion I’ve pretty much come to as well. After rereading On the Way to a Smile, I think with these lifestream “worlds” coming and going, it’s all under the concept of the passage or journey of the soul. There’s only one prime world and there aren’t “really” multiples of people. Just people with strong souls refusing to become one with the lifestream & have unfinished business. I think the popular theories are misunderstanding the concept of a “multiverse”/“timeline” (coming from someone who had that perspective & jumped the gun in making a vid about it before taking into consideration previous lore ESPECIALLY advent children)

Biggs knows both Marlene and Elmyra so I think Biggs was placed into a different world first, THEN Zack (since Zack ends up travelling to different ones anyway).

Interact with the community and you will see people screaming “the end was so good, I can’t wait to see Cloud leaving Aerith’s body in the water”. To even “Part 3 won’t end with Safer Sephiroth, it’s clear as day, Genesis and Nero will be the final bosses of Part 3”. If we are going to complain about the voices of FF7… then let’s recognize that is mainstream therefore every opinion under the sun is being pushed. As for me. After the whole madness of Remake I wanted to be show “a new journey”, but instead they were actually following the original story arguably better than Remake did from start up until the end of Junon. After that it got a bit quirky at some points leading to the insane end. But the “insane end” isn’t the issue now, but rather it’s the predictability now. Remake was insane cause it was the introduction. But now that Rebirth did Remake again, it’s safe (but obviously not 100%) to say that part 3 will now also follow FF7 OG at the start, start adding their classic filler, and then re-enter kingdom hearts madness in the final chapter. It’s simple really, after all the marketing you could see how everyone who was on board with the changes wanted a new Zack story that added a Zack party and a new parallel story, instead Zack is the torch of Kingdom Hearts madness. On the other hand, people who hated the new content were lead to believe they won by being given a rhyme of the original game, until they reached the end… again. So I think it’s actually clear as day why there is complaining about few and many changes… cause the criticism comes from different people! I actually found the perfect way to fix this. FF7 Re-sequels are a circus. You just enjoy it. It ain’t a puzzle meant to be solved, yet it isn’t a completely new journey since we all know what is going to happen and has happened. Minus the details. We know we are going to the northern cave, we know Midgar gets invaded, we know part 3 will end with another boss gauntlet. What we don’t is the small details, Cloud’s breakdown will probably give him more Sephiroth traits like growing his own 1 wing. The Midgar invasion might not be or just be a weapon but will now add fighters of this new Wutai war. Sephiroth might have another final form besides safer and shirtless. But nevertheless it’s predictable enough.

@@josetomascamposrobledano4618 I'm sure you can find some of those in every corner of the fandom, as you mentioned, but it's been far more vocal from one side, than the other. Theorycrafting is what the majority do, and that's not the "this is definitely happening" that you hear mostly from the naysayers. A lot of the rest of what you said I find ironic, b/c they've literally said from the start that it would fairly faithfully follow the story of the OG, with some changes along the way (mostly some expanding of details, side/backstories). Even as far back as a couple of days after the initial trailer in 2015 there were interviews when they clearly stated it would not be a 1 for 1 Remake, but still follow the major OG story beats for the most part. People have been acting like they haven't said it all along (whether wanting more changes or it not being as faithful as they wanted) from the jump. It is what it is. Personally I am just treating it as a slightly new journey and enjoying the ride. I do think they have left plenty of small clues throughout the games, though. Theorycrafting will usually miss, but it's had plenty of hits as well. Again, though, the major thing for me is assuming anything any direction until the entire 3 parts are out and completed. There's plenty of stuff I could complain about in context through 2 games, as well, but at least as far as story goes, any lingering questions can still mostly get answered by the end of Part 3. It has a big job to do, obviously. The one thing I can completely agree with most is I think they overstated Zack's importance/involvement in Rebirth. This isn't to say his role could grow more important in hindsight with greater context for what exactly happened/is going to go on with him based on what else we learn in Part 3, but that's all still unknowns, for now.

It’s the theory people that created this mess, setting expectations where there aren’t. At least we both will find fun on this trilogy, by enjoying the ride in the circus.

First time, nice video! They had to make the ending nebulous - if they commited to either path for Aerith they would likely have lost some fans before the third game. But you're right - she'll likely be "back". I think there are several giveaways, but Sephiroth's line about underestimating her and running away from that fight is the big one. If there's another working white materia out there, couldn't she just open another hole in the floor and bring herself back to the main timeline? Probably not, but they introduced that option!

If she stays gone they could give cloud some abilities that have her pop-up on screen to do some kind of synergy maybe that would be at least worth it also we should be able to play as her in the combat simulator with cloud similar to the 2ba hero mission that I'm stuck on

Largely agree with what you're thinking. I think there's a few details that really point the direction Square Enix is trying to go here, but I'll leave that up to the individual players to determine themselves. I do see a lot of comments about players complaining that the ending is too convoluted, and I really hope Square keeps things ambiguous until the end in part 3. It's not really that difficult to understand if you put a little thought and effort into it. So the writers of part 3 need to stay the course and not bend too much to the complaints. The story of FF7 was loved and appreciated because of its complexity and how dynamic it was back in 1997, and it was so rewarding for the players who put the time in to understand that they kept asking for a Remake for 20 years. Square can't deviate from that.

My theory is that the red timeline in the true timeline. The alternates are alternate mental worlds cloud created due to not being able to deal with their death. But also due to events in og disc 2 clouds memories are being manipulated by jenova along with the lifestream(black and white arbiters). I originally thought the grey ones from remake symbolized OG players. Those that have died are able to live through the lifestream and their spirits seep into their respective vessels in clouds memory, but only occupy one vessel at a time. Memories of anyone including shinra troops that have died may fill in the holes. Sector 7 evacuees may actually be dead in reality. If I was 100% sure this was the case I would not have posted it. But I hope SE delivers close or better. Either way it's got me on the edge of my seat.

How did you come to the conclusion that Marlene says Aerith will wake up if she dies in the main timeline? I didn't see anything alluding to that.

I sure hope she does actually get to live this time around. I have waited for 2 decades to save her. She is my favourite video game character of all time, and her death was the reason I quit playing the OG FF7 back in the day, which I have never gone back to. If they don't let her live, it would be an extremely odd design choice. SE could have just made a strict 1:1 remake and it would have been a license to print money with how many people love the OG. However, If everything ends the same as the OG in this new trilogy, then why introduce the very concept of "defying fate" and all of the foreshadowing? It would be a case of SE trying to please the purist fans that wanted no changes at all, but also trying to please fans like myself that wanted to experience something different. They'd have created a scenario in which they've tried to please everyone, but actually pleased nobody.

We might get a different stories. There might be a big choice at the end of the third installment. I think is that Aerith and Zack is body cannot live to where Cloud and the others are now because both of their bodies in this timeline are dead but Cloud however is alive and we might be able to choose our own ending. Also I believe we have 5 different timeline at this point, remake timeline, Zack and Cloud survive timeline, Biggs dies in the reactor timeline and Cloud and Aerith end of the world date timeline. I think that when Sepiroth said that world will merge is that things can be combined but you know, only one existence can exist. So, world’s merging might hint that the meteor is not the only problem but worlds merging together. If the universe is merging with another parallel then it could probably destroy the entire timeline. In this scenario, we could possibly travel into parallel universe and save everyone from meteor or something that would stitched down the cracks in the timeline and choose to live one of the timeline. In this case live with Aerith but all your friends dies or live with your friends but lose your lover.

Her return is only temporary assuming that it happens at all. FF7 is about two things self-acceptance and the finality of death and grief that follows. Keeping her alive would undermine that second bit so I hope they don't do that.

My first reaction to seeing Aerith "alive" was.... wtf? She survived?!?! THIS ISN'T WHAT IS SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN!!? It was so confusing. Not what I expected AT ALL. I hope she does come back... I cried SO HARD in the original when she died, and again in Rebirth. This game has got me the same as the 1997 OG.

We have to know this is basically the Empire strikes back of the Final Fantasy universe. The story is finished yet. Fate can still be defied in the third game. We just don’t know yet.

Remake…Rebirth…Reunion

You can't really say they botched it if you haven't played the 3rd game yet.

Biggs died to show that fate somehow finds a way to work itself back to its intended path. Somehow, things will go back to the way they happened in the original despite the twists

Good point, do you think the same will happen for Tseng as well?

@XaraFang idk, because in the original it's only assumed Tseng died. We never saw him again, and Elena makes a comment to Cloud about her boss getting done in but it isn't guaranteed that he died.

Normura and Kitase, contradict each other FYI They also lie about the plot in interviews on purpose

This is better than big dan gaming's tifa cucked conclusion.

That analysis got hilariously shallow at the end lol, I also get some complaints but ultimately this remake follows the established story of the OG. Dev's are just "remixing" it for the OG players. I like how they fleshed out Barret's scenes, How it shows Cloud's awkwardness with everybody, Also, The Gold Saucer shattered my expectations. This game is worth the 70$ you paid for the content you are getting.

There are 7 timelines

is tifa going to save cloud from mako poisoning and repair his mind in the lifestream in part 3

The Big mistake in this Game was whispers and that Marvel multiverse that they create for remake -_- for that reason this is not a great remake, and in original u see aerith die u can feel that u cant see her again. But in this die and then o but she is with me i can see her again and Talk with her so in this Game u dont get the heartbreaking moment

There's no multiverse and by saying that you have made it clear you did not understand the story.

Zack better come back and reunite with cloud they're like siblings torn apart by fate they must reunite although all this is 100% gunna change advent children tho I'd pay for an advent children game plus its just mean keeping zach and aerith apart dude ligit resurrected (kinda) for Aerith and Cloud

Thing with Biggs, he died in one timeline and one timeline only, the pug timeline. There's no reason to believe he died in all of them, cuz the troopers only showed up because Zack's fate was catching up with him. Biggs was just caught in the crossfire. So in every other reality where Zack didn't choose to stop him, he's still there chilling and eating his chips.

Reunions opening cutscene will be the burial in the lake.

I don't think we'll see that until the lifestream chapter. I guess we'll have to see. It's going to be a long wait.

Never liked ff7 but when i saw that ps3 demo and the idea of remaking was being entertained, i just knew this Nomura cretin was going to pull some parallel time shenanigans and play with Aeriths death... he couldnt help himself to add his writing diarrhea. Tabata did the timeline deal better with type 0 and the idea didnt need a revisit. Or make the game gayer for that matter but heh. Since i never liked ff7 no love lost.

fyi Aerith's death being the focal point of FF7's plot was Nomura's idea in the first place and I absolutely guarantee you there's no actual "parallel timeline" shenanigans, she's dead and we're being teased and duped.

This whole game has Nomura writing all over the place fanfiction wet dream bro bought Zack and Aeirth from another timeline to help cloud fight Sephiroth again 🤦 Like Sephiroth lost all meaning as big final boss you fought him in every game

All I'll say is, while I respect your opinion, I hope you're wrong. 💙

Nice Video ! but I thought Marlene said if she stood up she would die.

Yeah it is weird how she worded it, this was just my interpretation though. I thought this because Biggs was dying in the main timeline and then showed up in the other one, which I assume would happen to Aerith as well. Thank you for watching, much appreciated 😃

You are correct. they sure threw us that played the original off. They achieved their goal. I’m so thrown off, I quit being a final fantasy fan.

It wasn't that they changed her death scene, it's that it was surround by confusing, making it significantly less impactful.

My takeaway is that all of this is WAY too much and too confusing. There's a reason why most people despise the Kingdom Hearts storyline, if it can even be CALLED that considering how utterly bonkers it is. I don't know if it's the KH influence, the Marvel influence or what, but this "Multiverse" storytelling is the absolute WORST! It removes all of the stakes, all of the emotion and just replaces it with mass confusion. Aerith's "Death" should have been the emotional pinnacle of the game. I, and all other players, should have been SEETHING and ready to kick Sephy's butt a million times over. Instead, most of us (Myself included) were like Zack: "WTF IS GOING ON?!" There is TOO MUCH going on, with too many side plots/worlds, and not enough liquor in the world to make any of this s*** make sense.

Because it sucks!

Ok i understand the theory but at this point you call this "good writing?" Idk the remakes are kinda woke compared to the original.
