I know, sorry, I just wanted to comment that. I hate it when people insist on Aerith wanting to kill herself...

Even if Aerith did forsee her death I doubt she actually would have wanted to die. She was just willing to do what it took to save the world.

Kind of like Yuna in FFX. I hate it when people are all like, "Why does Yuna want to kill herself?" SHE DOESN'T! But she thinks it's the only way to save THE WORLD. :P

Yeah, I agree. It's annoying to have people that say that Aerith intentionally killed herself, like she knew that Sephiroth was going to stab her...

She didn't sacrifice herself. She didn't even know she was going to die.

I felt that death was foreshadowed; but I agree that Aerith didn't want to die, perhaps she didn't even expect to die. Someone had to go to the planet - those words, in that order, can be understood in so many different ways. I feel the thought may have come to her, when at Cosmo Canyon, but it was swiftly taken up with future events as well - what I just said - the different meanings that 'going to the planet' has.

Funny how Cloud thought Aerith sacrificed herself, but Tifa knew that Aerith wanted to live and talked about the future more than anyone.

Hint that Cloud doesn't know Aerith all too well?

Or Aerti?

Take your pick. :monster:

Well of COURSE she knew. Everyone is as puppets on the strings of the great and omniscient Materia Jesus!
Sephiroth was dancing to her tune all along!
It's actually a giant plot for her to attain ULTIMATE POWER!
AERITH IS THE TRUE ANTAGONIST OF THE COMPILATION! FEAR HE-

Wait, what were we talking about again?

When did he ever say this? o.O

Imo, Marlene is just...Marlene. Not a miniature Tifa. Doesn't really make much sense.

Reunion Files. He said that Marlene's been with Tifa for most of her life, and really looks up to her, and that in a way, she's like a mini-Tifa. Then he adds that Marlene kind of resembles Aeris (even though she has brown/hazel eyes and near-black hair like Tifa), so she sort of has both girls "in her" or some shiz like that.

In response to your reply in uh... that ACC live thread:

I don't know, maybe it's the fact that parallels itself have been used one point at a time. And yes, the VA's have nothing to do with the storyline.

And that's interesting. Never heard about that, I should check into it.

I don't see how Sakurai talking about BluRay and PS3s, and Sakamoto playing Lightning is meant to be some kind of hint towards C/A just because it's in the same advert. That's reaching too far, if anyone seriously thinks it means something.

Well, yes, that's my point.

Her Promised Land, I think, derives from her going to the Lifestream and helping others, but I may be wrong. For sure though, she never knew she was going to die.

I just didn't see a need to mention them was all. They haven't said anything yet, so let's not make fun of them for something that may or may not say... or at least, I haven't heard them say anything yet (and that may be because I don't frequent many forums).

@Marlene blurby thingie: it's on Marlene's page. You might have missed it, because most people just skim or skip over the kids' pages.

Random Promised Land shiz: I thought that Promised Land was simply heaven... or the Lifestream. It's not like everyone has their own special PM, ala the mormons (or whatever religion it is that believes yo have your own special heaven/place. I forget).

Sorry, I guess I've been a bit spiteful towards them these days. And it's not their forum either.

I thought the Promised Land was supposed to represent everyone's eternal happiness and joy. The Promised Land is different for everyone - it can be for their children, for their family, but everyone's is different. The Promised Land for the Ancients however, is the Lifestream.

Like, for Cloud, it can be... err, his family, friends, and Fenrir.

I know that they can be flippin' ridiculous, so I understand your annoyance and frustration. I just think that ignoring them sometimes is good.

I've always thought that the Promised Land as heaven, because I've seen heaven referred to as "Promised Land" in books and shiz. Well, heaven or California.

Well, not only that, but there was this one Clerith who trolled my forum the other day... and showed pictures of people getting hanged.... slitting their wrists... some more stuff. They keep coming and just spreading shit. It was really disturbing, but anyways, yeah. I'll try ignoring them, thanks.

Lol, yeah. I think in the game itself there were people who that that the Promised Land was supposed to be something like Heaven.

Any troll who'd do that is starving for attention. I'm sure Cleriths get the same crap at their forum. It isn't about Cloti vs. Clerith, it's about someone having severe insecurity issues.

@ Promised Land:

In the book of Exodus in the Bible the Promised Land is where Moses is supposed to be leading the Hebrew slaves after he frees them from Egypt. It is said to be a land abundant in milk and honey. But the Hebrews sin and as punishment they have to wander the wilds for forty years or so until all the people who did so died, so they become a nomadic people wandering from place to place until finally one day they are allowed to finally stop and they all are able to go there. Moses dies before this but...his son(? don't remember it's been a while) leads them on.

See a comparison with a certain video game we all enjoy? Hebrew slaves = Cetra (at least as far as the nomadic thing goes, and maybe even them all being killed off by Jenova could be how the sinners all had to die), and abundant in milk and honey = abundant in mako. Seriously there's a lot of stuff in VII that's taken straight from the book of Exodus.

And then of course we all know how Charlton Heston parted the koibito sea for the pink faithful. :monster:

Oh, they've flip-flopped away from their koi(space)bito nonsense. The latest I've seen them argue is that koibito can be one-sided, so Tifa is a koibito to every guy who's ever been attracted to her.

Slut. :neo:

Or, that it's a possibility that koibito isn't being referred to Cloud, but someone else... like Barret or Johnny.

wtf How does this even make sense? To them, too.
Not to mention that the world tachiba is there... which means position/standpoint.

It isn't describing her personality, for the last time. Unless, her personality is of one of a lover's... she is a slut!

Promised Land = land of milk and honey. California = land of fruitful land and opportunities.. or something.

zee bible & grapes of wrath... I saw it all as a metaphor for heaven somehow.

That happened at the old Faith before too. I was one the trolls' main targets, because they kept on writing poetry (or something) about me, and posting it all over the forums. Funny, really.

+ yeah, that person may not be a shipper at all. It might just be some person who is completely whack and a little bored.
