New Dengeki Playstation interview info with Tetsuya Nomura on FFVII AC Complete

• The entire article below was a lame April Fools joke •
It should neither be taken seriously nor cited as a reference


A new scan from the previous Dengeki Playstation interview with Nomura has surfaced online and we’ve got even more new info regarding Advent Children Complete! Here are some more translated portions that highlight the key features of the movie.

Edit: I have to apologize for some confusion regarding the scan and translator. Our staff member Ondore translated this Dengeki scan and I accidentally messed up the smaller image’s link to the full size scan in the post. I’ve gone ahead and fixed it. You should be able to see the scan much clearer now and see that it’s readable. Also, I fixed the source link as well. Again, thanks Ondore for the interesting, and rather…controversial news.

“Aerith had originally been seen as just a happy surprise for the fans, but her role in the story is much more. Expect her to play a bigger role throughout the story, on both a worldly, and in some cases, more personal scale for the characters.”

“Originally, Red XIII spoke very little but this was not our intention. Please enjoy the numerous humorous lines of Red XIII in the film.”

“In the original, Cloud clashed with Sephiroth once again after two years. Like the other reunions of this movie, his battle with Sephiroth stirs up old emotions of the past. In the previous edition, Cloud was triumphant against Sephiroth. But Cloud can’t always be victorious. The new rendition may surprise you.”

“In the original, we included Denzel to act as a firm connection to someone else for Cloud, one we didn’t get to address originally. In the new edition, Cloud wishes to rescue Denzel both out of his own responsibility, but also to preserve his connection with, well… you can see for yourself when it comes out [laugh]”

“The changes we’ve made to the movie include quite a lot of additional scenes detailing Cloud’s complex relationship with the deceased heroine Aerith. Later in the film, fans will be glad to see he is finally able to overcome his grief for Aerith, the woman who died before his eyes, and continue his life with this woman he cherishes.”

“At Nojima’s request, we’ve included the original ending of the 20 minute movie, but if we just repeated the same ending, it wouldn’t have been interesting. So you might be surprised to discover the truth about the message the children are delivering from a ‘special woman.'”

“There’s quite a lot of information in the story, so new viewers can enjoy the story without confusion. But this leaves old viewers who already know this a bit bored. So the idea was that while a lot of what we show is important, what’s truly important is what’s not shown. With that in mind, pay attention to what you don’t see as much as you pay attention to what’s there. You’ll be surprised at what’s in what isn’t there.”

    Well, I’m not surprised that this was fake, considering what today is 😛 Some of you guys are overreacting like crazy and all this LT stuff is annoying. I actually prefer Cloud/Aerith. I don’t despise Cloti or anything, I just like Clerith better ^^. Just stating my opinion, I doubt anyone cares.

    Holy amount of comments on one article….

    Come on, guys, TLS already had it’s April Fool joke. I don’t think this one is a joke, it’s for real. Even if I’m wrong and it IS a joke, it’s not a big deal either way. While I don’t mind talking this much about an article, what’s with all the pointless controversy? I’m a Cloti fan but I don’t feel the need to bite someone’s head off over it. When the movie comes out, it will most likely answer most, if not all of our questions we have. Patience, people.

    Now that that’s out of the way…

    I think the part about the Cloud/Sephiroth fight is interesting. Someone said earlier that they think Cloud and Sephiroth will kill each other, which I agree with. When I first watched AC, when he got shot and the explosion, I thought, “What a lame way for Cloud to go.”

    I think Cloud will get Sephiroth, and vice versa. Then Cloud will go the the Lifestream and get kicked out by Aerith, etc, like what happened originally.

      Okay, so I was wrong, it really was a joke. I was fooled. Very much so. Good job, LT.

    ….this was making me want to die inside. LOOOOL
    I’m such a Clerith fan and I was like: NUUUU!!! *even though it IS unhealthy for Cloud to be unable to get over his dead love, lolz*

    That was a horrible April Fools joke, I could’ve died. LOL
    But I wish the part about Red XIII was true. *sadness ensues*

    Man, this is the BEST April Fool’s joke I’ve seen!
    What makes it even better is the fact 2/3 of the people here believe it.
