    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    My honest opinion is that Cloud has favor for both Aerith & Tifa. We know the hero "wavers" between two heroines. However, Cloud & Aerith's moments suggest to me his preference is Aerith. Once Aerith is in the picture, it is Aerith, Aerith, Aerith. Only once Aerith dies, does Cloud...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    What I said about Tifa is minimal compared to what has been said on this forum in the past. I won’t feel guilty for what I said about Tifa’s scenes being overshadowed by Jessie & forgotten by the time Aerith gets into the picture. That is my opinion. Aerith drives the main narrative forward...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    Aerith bringing the REAL Cloud to the surface (ie: slowly giving her high-five’s), peaking when he vows to rescue her from Shinra HQ, fulfilling his romantic agreement to be her Bodyguard. And of course... Cloud saying that he wants his OWN SAY on loving Aerith. I couldn’t pick just one. As...

    A ruse. I’m the only one specifically quoted in the post.

    Uhhh... Lex admitted to warning me because of my previous ban?

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    Literally the only two FULL quotes I posted is of Tifa’s jealousy & Aerith melting Cloud’s “frosty exterior.” Couldn’t you have “warned” me in a PM? You doing it in the thread is a clear power play.

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    I’m being told to “tread carefully.” As if everything I posted isn’t relevant to the discussion. Sorry my quotes offend you so much. Must have struck a nerve.

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    Aerith is being downplayed by people saying an ambiguous relationship chart is more valid than Nomura saying Aerith is the original heroine.

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    Also — Yes. Cloud isn’t 100% his real self yet. Aerith is slowly bringing him to the surface with his growing love for her. Cloud begins to high-five Aerith on the reg. Says he wants his OWN SAY on loving her. Rescues her from Shinra HQ. “Gradually, Aerith’s warm cheer begins to melt Cloud’s...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    Most of your post is saying my opinion is wrong. We can agree to disagree. However, while in Shinra HQ, Cloud reminds both Tifa & Barret that finding Aerith is the #1 priority. I literally just played the Remake and Cloud reminded them on at least 2 separate occasions. Furthermore, while...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    The ending with Zack is simply because the first installment is about Midgar. You gotta explain how Cloud made it to Midgar since it is a stand alone game. It is a "full-circle" scene to provide history & background. Nothing more. Nothing less. Zack may come back in an alternate reality. But SE...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    With the Remake released, I thought I'd add my two cents from the Clerith perspective: From the moment Cloud falls to Aerith’s Church, all the way to Wall Market, it is nothing but Cloud & Aerith one-on-one. Beauty, fun, flirting, & flowers. Magnetism, electricity, and excitement. Soulmates...

    Devotion 2.0 - CloudxAerith

    I'm baaaaaack! Well, sort of. I'm not interested in debating the LTD, but I have recently written a few new pro-Cloud x Aerith essay's, and even one about why I believe Aerith is the ultimate heroine. So, I thought I'd pass them along for all the Clerith's that frequent this highly active...

    The Love Triangle Debate: Another Turn in the Cycle

    My ship has been validated since 1997. Anyway -- if SE didn't want "amant" officially applied to their work, they shouldn't have sold the rights. But they did. So "amant" is every bit as valid as "koibito". Can't wait!

    The Love Triangle Debate: Another Turn in the Cycle

    So you are of the belief that SE wants to leave it up to interpretation how one views the word "koibito"? If so, I've already stated why I believe the source material tells us that "lover" is the correct usage of "koibito": From the very moment Cloud falls to Aerith Church, they spend a...

    The Love Triangle Debate: Another Turn in the Cycle

    It's an interpretation that thousands of people in France will read with Square Enix's logo on it. I guess French fans are all misinformed now! (joking...) All I'm saying is that the French translators give credibility to the position that "koibito" should mean "lover" rather than "beloved". In...

    The Love Triangle Debate: Another Turn in the Cycle

    So you're saying it's still valid to view "koibito" as meaning "beloved" despite the French translation using "lover"? If "koibito" has two meanings in Japanese, and the source material isn't obvious enough, then yes, they do. I'd say they were unofficial lovers by the time she died, but...
