ACC Japanese Site update and Famitsu PS3 article

by April 14, 2009 0 comments

The Advent Children Complete Japanese Site was updated with info about an exhibit at the Ginza Sony Building. There is an event to celebrate ACC’s release and let people experience the world and visuals. It’s open from April 10th to May 17th. You can also watch the latest trailers on a 120 inch high-vision screen with powerful (surround?) sound. There’s also an ACC art gallery until the 17th of this month.

So if you so happen to be in Ginza shopping district of Tokyo, definitely check it out!

Also, the new Famitsu PS3 features an article about Advent Children Complete.  Here are the cover for the magazine and scans of the article:

 Some highlights of the article:

AC was sorta ignored for a while after its release since they wanted to focus on other projects.

They wanted to pushh back the release until the blu-ray market grew big enough, but never expected it to be such a long project.

Nojima wanted fantasy elements for AC.

They wanted to depict the contrast between Cloud and the children, as well as Cloud’s own growth after his meeting with Denzel and the kids.

The upped the depiction of blood and Geostigma quite a bit, since they believed a more realistic depiction would give a more realistic impression of pain.

Since they had quite a bit of time left over, they arranged the songs to fit the scenes better. In AC they tried to fit the scenes with the songs, while in ACC they had the songs tailored to fit the scenes. And created the ‘ideal battle scene’.

Most of the staff didn’t want to touch anything FF7 related in the beginning, but Nomura took the lead(and made them into his slaves. And made onigiri for them in Hawaii).

5 years passed between AC and ACC. Most of the technology they’ve used is different.

They had trouble deciding how much of the new technology used in Versus 13 should be used in ACC.

They’re pretty much done with FF7, saying that it’s hard to think of any other important events that might occur in the universe. They still have ideas, but there won’t be any compilation news for a while.

Thanks to Defade for providing the information about the Famitsu article.

    yeah, the bonus ending in DC. So, they are just going to leave it completely open?
