It's the complete guide so it's not an Ultimania. Still, it's there! I will also add that "shortening the distance" was a metaphor used in the Japanese lyrics of Midgar's Blues in Remake - the song that basically storytells Cloud's life (or rather, Akira's life that mirrors Cloud's). It's a...

They even have a keyword together in the Complete Crisis Core Guide (this translation is from TLS):

True he did but his quests never involved her. And again, the reunion theme is so strongly CT coded that it's in their promise and Tifa's theme. It was also in the LS scene "we finally meet again"), it's in Remake with Tifa's rug, it's with the yellow flower in chapter 1 of Rebirth when Cloud...

People often forget it, but Tifa brings her doubts about his true identity to Cloud in Cosmo Canyon: So her LS scene was always the most romance-coloured one - which, is still is. It was a confession she was meaning to do, but couldn't in the end.

I disagree. Tifa was trying to confess there. And it shows in Rebirth.

Oh, I read something interesting recently: x.com It looks like Tifa was famous all along, so much they added scenes for her specifically in the international version lol.

Translated by TurquoiseHammer (it's the Ultimania Plus, the one where they described the scenes). This is why it's called a mistake, it's because Cloud is feeling satisfied (and yes the Japanese text implies a sort of sexual pleasure, the "oops I did it too early" kind of). Cloud is taking too...

I mean, how? Leslie doesn't know Aerith nor Zack, but he does know Cloud and Tifa. It's them who help him out, and... it's them who have the strongest reunion theme.

Well there's a reason why I say that TKAA's ending is the perfect ACC ending. I think Nojima must have felt it was missing too and when he was tasked with this book he must have added because it would give a true closure to Cloud and Tifa's story. In TKAA we're definitely closer to Remake...

He actually didn't say that in JP - I don't remember right now because the FR was botched too. Either way, Cloud feels Jenova's calling, not Aerith's during this whole part up until they see Sephiroth with Jenova in the Shinra Tower.

I mean it’s not that deep; it’s just that his quest to find his lover mirrors Tifa’s to find the real Cloud. I’m pretty sure we’ll see Leslie and Merle reunite just like Cloud and Tifa will. There’s also some old LTD blood there since in Remake CAs insisted that the Leslie wanting to reunite...

The voucher is for the guy he buys (aka trades) the bike for. And of course he intends to remain by her side forever; you don't push a lifetime voucher for freebies on someone you don't want to stay with. But yes, this discussion you've copied is also showing this. At the end of the day, Cloud...

Searching for "family" in CoT: On p4: This is on p4 and 5. I believe that she refers friends as family because at first she thinks the family is going to be her, Marlene and Barret. Cloud is included after this. Clearly her and Cloud's relationship isn't defined as friendship only if you...

Yeah I have a very few nitpicks but it's pretty on the nose lol. My main nitpick would be that I think Cloud and Tifa became soulmates during the Promise, as they tied their feelings, hopes and dreams together at that moment and this is why Tifa is able to pull Cloud through his mako poisoned state.

I've already thought about this but I'm not sure they are up to it. It would be pretty awesome as we'd see Cloud degrading from the end of Rebirth until the NC scene. I wonder what they will do though because the next game should start at Icicle but I don't see Icicle as a starting zone tbh.

IIRC but could be wrong, Cetras could indeed choose. I believe it’s tied to their Promised Land - this is where they stay until they join the LS. The devs want to show us how the LS works so that’s also why I’m pretty sure the church and sector 5 are Aerith’s PL and that’s also how Zack gets to...

Indeed it does. It's just that part where she wonders how she can communicate with Cloud that seriously gives me dream date vibes.

The closest too, so I interpreted it as right after she died. To me the dream date happens after Aerith has spent some time in the Lifestream, in fact the reason why I believe it can only be CoLW Aerith is because it makes sense for her to be CoLW Aerith if this happens then.

Honestly, I think you paint them in a far too evil way. There is a much simpler explanation: the devs want to add to that story, retell in new ways that were not possible in '97 because retelling the same way would be extremely boring and not interesting to them. They're creative, they know they...

Sorry this message is old but I barely have the time to read that forum these days, let alone answer stuff, so I put posts in my quotes and answer when I have time. So you see, I don't think we can say her feelings have been retconned. Even if you ask me today, I will tell you that Aerith loved...
