FFVII's story has elements of a love triangle but is itself NOT a love triangle. It is a story of a boy learning to make peace with his failures and accepting who he is. Aerith dies, does useful shit with the lifestream for a time, then moves on and lets her consciousness dissolve in the...

The story is not a love triangle lol what version of FFVII did you even play? lmao And saying Aerith is dead is not treating her character like shit. She's dead because she died in the story. This isn't interpretation. That's literally what happened.

As if that single offhand comment of a clueless robot encompasses the entirety of Tifa and her character arc. Although in retrospect, I guess your interpretation makes sense because not once in your numerous comments did it ever feel like Tifa is treated as a character. Not even Jenova is ever...

Not salty. Just calling it as it is. Your interpretation is shitty because it treats one if its main characters like shit.

What a shitty story.

No one: Literally no one: JP Cloud: Tifa

I find it extremely amusing that when Cloud finds himself frustrated over Tifa's recklessness, his default reaction to her is "You're crazy!" LOL as if he's one to talk. He's literally the crazy one here. But then, they can both be crazy. Crazy for each other, that is. :desu:

And yet here you are asking people to prove what is blatantly obvious. You do you, BB.

I must've misunderstood then. Thought she was describing the scene. Now I can see she was making a comparison to the OG.

^No, I've seen the JP version of that scene. It's about the same as how I described it. I'm just saying it wasn't the yellow drink that Cloud responded with "beautiful", it was the second drink---the Cosmo Canyon. I mean, I'm basically watching a playthrough in Japanese right now and I just...

Just a minor correction. The scene wasn't quite like that. The first drink Tifa serves him had the same color of his hair. She serves him this no matter what the player's choice is ("Something hard" vs. "Not in the mood"). Interestingly, if you pick the "something hard" option, the 'Cloud hair'...

Sure, specialization is great too. A lot of artists are 'specialists' in their genre: Stephen King focuses on horror (although he has other works such as "The Green Mile"), Agatha Christie and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle are in 'detective' stories, Jane Austen is into romance, etc. etc.) The problem...

Shinkai doesn't need to be the next Miyazaki (no one does), he only needs to be Makoto Shinkai. I think the main thing holding him from greatness, imo, isn't that he doesn't want to be seen as the next Miyazaki (that's a fair sentiment), it's the limitations on the 'variety' of the stories he...

That's precisely why I can't put Shinkai among the greats: he's too singular. I'll still continue to watch his movies though and see how he'll improve and transition to other type of stories. "Children Who Chase Lost Voices" is that one Miyazaki-like film Shinkai tried to make, and yes, it was a...

Have you tried Mamoru Hosoda? I honestly believe he's a better storyteller than Shinkai and I love his movies (not so much his last two, but I still like them). Another GOAT whose films deserve to be watched is also Satoshi Kon (RIP). That guy is a god of transition shots. It's such a shame he...

Not really a fan of Shinkai's storytelling chops (I much prefer Mamoru Hosoda), although the guy does give some glorious beautiful animation. I've watched all of his feature length films (including "The Place Promised in Our Early Days" and "Children Who Chase Lost Voices" (his weakest...

But surely, Tres, it is alright to bring up "Cloud Mows the Lawn" every now and then, right? It is top rate literature that deserves to be analyzed for the greater good. It should be natural for it to come up every time people start to talk about Cloud and Tifa's sex practices. Or maybe not, I...

RAMZAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

Good Lord, Ryu! I didn't want to publicly name the guy here, but yeah it was Shrouded Light (a.k.a. Shroudy). And now that you mention it, he is Giddy Unicorn here (I honestly forgot his TLS registered name until you mentioned it). Oh yeah he did that too. Jeez, that takes me back. But I wanted...
