Forum member Quexinos has very kindly provided TheLifestream.net — and you, our fellow fans of Final Fantasy VII and its related compositions — with the missing link in our coverage of translations from the FFVII 10th Anniversary Ultimania: Cait Sith’s profile.

Sure, we had Reeve Tuesti’s profile, but not that of his beloved feline avatar. Thanks to Que being less lazy than the rest of us, however, we can at last offer you the only main character profile we had overlooked.

We here at TLS are very proud of Que, and it warms my heart to unveil her first frontpage translation effort.

Character Profile

Sex: ?
Height: 100cm
Blood Type: ?
Date of Birth: ?
Birthplace: ?

First Person Pronoun: ボク [Boku]
Voice Actor: AC, DC — Hideo Ishikawa

A remote controlled stuffed cat. Reeve, head of the Shinra Company’s Urban Development Department, manufactured him for such purposes as scouting out intelligence and spying. Because Reeve is the one operating him, he speaks with the unique accent of Reeve’s original Kansai dialect. He’s powerless and limited when alone, so he often rides on the fat, stuffed toy moogle during times of action.

Over the years, it’s become hard work for FFVII fans to keep up with what’s supposed to be canon and what isn’t. Amidst all the games, movies, novellas, guide books, and alternate universe titles, what’s a FFVII fan to do?

Read this article, that’s what!

I’m going to take all the work out of it on your end and lay everything out for you, the fans, to digest in a simple, easy-to-follow manner. So, the next time you’re in a debate about FFVII with HeartlessAngel527 or FlowerGoddess777 and they begin to reference Cloud’s wing, Aerith waiting around for a certain spikey-haired emo kid, or other stuff you know doesn’t belong, you can go all Phoenix Wright on them.

So, click “Read the rest of this entry” and let’s get started.

I’ve put together this article for the launch of our newly re-organized Compilation of Final Fantasy VII forum structure which now includes a Fan Content Section. This is speculation and theorization based on as much data as I can put together from all of the pieces of the Compilation, for the potential of the final events leading to the ending of the the FFVII Compilation, allowing Gaia to finally become the paradise that is seen 497 years after Dirge of Cerberus. This is a fairly in-depth article, spanning 3 pages, so don’t forget to click “Read the rest of this entry.”

Enjoy, and be sure to check out our new sections in the forums!

Hitoshura has done translated several more pages of the Crisis Core Complete Guide’s Keyword Collection, and you can find all of the translated info right here. It’s quite an update, so be sure to give him your thanks for all the info. Enjoy!

Do my eyes deceive me…?

With the lack of Final Fantasy characters appearing in KH 358/2, I kinda wasn’t expecting any FF characters to appear in Birth By Sleep.

Was I wrong.

A new scan from Weekly Jump showcases our loveable SOLDIER, Zack Fair, making an appearance in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. And as an even more amusing nod to Crisis Core, Zack’s D-Link ability with Terra in the game, is an attack called “Heroes Pride.”

I think it’s safe to say this game’s cool factor got a +5.

Thanks Dark & Divine for bringing this to my attention!

Slowly but surely, hitoshura’s making it through, translating each page of the Crisis Core Complete Guide. The article that houses these translations is gonna end up several pages long at this rate XD

Anyways, you can find the new storyline and scenario translations here, and of course, more will be coming. Who knows what clarifications from these translations will result, and which theories will be subsequently shot down and burned by the information? Heh heh..enjoy folks!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! In between stuffing your faces, let us give thanks to Hitoshura for giving us another translated page from the Crisis Core Complete Guide’s Keyword Explanation section. He just seems to be on a roll right now! You can view the new translations here. Enjoy!

Hitoshura’s timing is impeccable, because now he has some new translations from the Crisis Core Complete Guide’s Keyword Explanation section to share with us, now that our site is back up and on the new host. You can view the new translations here. A big thanks to hito for translating this stuff. Be sure to check back for the next set of translations from the next page!
