This is where the fun begins.....

Someone like Star Wars

Aerith Has Gone Full Devi Durga In THIS ONE

This is the line Obi Wan said to Darth Vader in A New Hope. Aerith also become 'force ghost' at the end.

looks the same too me…..😂 Sepiroth is a tougher boss fight….Aerith a magic user but is she capable by physically fighter ?….I guess not Sepiroth is too scary I’m not gonna take the chance. Then there’s cloud that why he’s more capable for this battle

For me it was the “begone. Your part is played”

I also adore the fact how Sephiroth has been so smug about how his plan has been rolling out. But when the fight is finished, he looks angrier than he's ever been. He really didn't even consider losing there.

It's honestly impressive how aerith truly isn't afraid of sephiroth at all. In the first battle in remake, she literally says, "screw him." In this one, she shows up and seems to be equal to his power, if not slightly greater, and even sephiroth himself was impressed by what she could do

"Guess not. You made the player lose like 50 times, Aerith."

If thats cold, than his orignal slaying of Aerith must be sub zero.

She is not dead to Cloud even, he thinks she is alife

I played the OG and this scene just feels weeby asf. Completely ruins the plot for me.

Don't know about everyone else, but it was nice to see both Cloud and Aerith, just them, fight together against Sephiroth ✨️😊✨️

@@alexanderprice6612it does. its fanservice for the crybabies.

​​@@alexanderprice6612"feels weeby" mf, FF7 is made by a japanese gaming company so obviously it would feel "weeby" 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I noticed that too. But I feel his frustration was really at Aerith. He underestimated her.

He was already beaten up by the entire party + Zack, which he reverted back to base form. And to top it all up, he’s now fighting the two strongest members of said party

Yeah and his confidence took a massive hit once he realized how powerful Aerith actually is.

He was angry and frustrated the first time they fought He said " How dare you" Then he said " don't test me"

Yeah😅😂

Wait there's someone who this *wasn't* clear to?

​@@IdkAkaIdkGENESIS WAKE THE HECK UP! WE GOT A PLANET TO SAVE!

@@mariogirl8100 Lol yeah i wonder if they'll put him in the final game. Redemption arc maybe? No more Loveless spam & he just helps the party defeat Sephiroth?

@@IdkAkaIdkHe should be with Zack, would be ironic given how they were enemies back in crisis core

She didn't have agency? That's not true at all. She did everything she did for a reason in the original. Dying in her friends arms doesn't mean she didn't have agency at all

She died and then stopped meteor in the background. Emphasis on the background. Here she is in an active role. Pay attention in english class next time buzz killington@@jdzspace33

​@@jdzspace33🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤

I was telling a buddy of mine the ultimatum explained it this game and remake are sequels to the otiginal. The Aerith from remake was Aerith but with the concious and memory from Og Aerith and sadly although the Aerith for this timeline died Og says it thanks for what you did and heres Og now ready to fight again no Agency just amazing for all of us Og fans who spoiler alert lol felt a hole in our party when parties of three take turns against the final boss but sadly one party only has two Aerith missing.

Likewise, Cloud went from standing there and watching her die to actually blocking off Sephiroth successfully. Although Whispers gotta be Whispers

Could you please explain this shroedinger thing?

@@GodOfAI_ schrodinger relates to anything that is both alive and dead at the same time because its fate is linked to a random event that may (or may not) occur

@@antonironstag5085like Aerith seemingly being both dead and alive this time?

@@stardust_sonic Either that or Cloud did save her from the sword attack at a critical moment when two worlds were overlapping. I think the Aerith we have been playing as for the whole game got stabbed but she is spiritually linked the to the Aerith B that Cloud DOES save! Because of her powers and the bond with Cloud, Cloud is able to perceive that she is alive and well, but operating from beyond the main universe plane. Everybody else in the room just thinks Cloud's Chocobo's are all running the wrong way on the race track. Cloud already had split personality/identity crisis going on in this game, now he looks like a paranoid schizophrenic to the group and on top of that? Tifa saw Aerith die in front of her and she is completely broken, and she doesn't know what to make of Cloud who is almost cheerful as he gets while everybody else is down in the dumps. Only reason I can think of for Aerith not being seen by the others is because they weren't gifted the Shining and only Cloud and interact with beings from multiverse OR Aerith doesn't want to let the others know what's going on because it's the Back To The Future mentality of "knowing too much about one's destiny can make things more complicated"

@@guardian08527the reasons the others can’t see her is cause they didn’t cross the boundary when Cloud went to save Aerith. Remember the first time the WHOLE party went through that Whisper gateway on the Highway. So that’s when they got glimpses of other timelines. This time it was ONLY cloud, so he’s the only one who can see the different fates atm.

Sephiroth is a villain, not a main character. Aerith, Zack, and Cloud are the main characters of FF7

@@michaelrobosa146Dude Cloud, Sephiroth, and Aerith were designed to be the MAIN characters of FF7 before any other characters were even created. Lol

@@jeremyfields9009 Not to mention the plot is hinged around the 3 of them. Cloud, the Hero. Aerith, the Heroine. Sephiroth, the Villain. Tifa is more of a Secondary Heroine and Zack is the Secondary Hero. They are both important but not as important as the above 3.

@@michaelrobosa146 Zack is not a main character. Even Barret has more importance.

@@EvelynL.1112ROFL, keep clutching at straws dude, Zack is well down the pecking order of importance in FF7. Zack's sequence in rebirth were minisucle and didn't have much importance. Hell there is even an option to SKIP his parts after you complete the game in the extra settings menu.

Her.

literally said that out loud LOL

Chad Cloud.

It would be awesome if the only line he said when using a LB on Sephiroth was “Let’s dance, asshole!”

They should have programmed Cloud to say “I’d be lying, if i said this isn’t personal, taste buster sword Asshole.” exclusively for Sephiroth encounters.😂😂😂

​@FazFaz how many tries it took you first time playing this cheap match?

Completely agree. Just like sep was altering fate from within the life stream now airth is right there with him represented by the white whispers If you remember the white whispers actually prevent the party from saving airth implying she knew her death needed to happen to stand against seps new plan involving multi worlds.

Even the way they hold hands means a lot. Interlocked fingers is a very big romantic gesture in japan to my knowledge

Depends on the context, why the context of Aerith and Cloud holding hands is romantic, since they intertwine their fingers. And in the interactions of these two there is clearly something more, Zack knows that Aerith is in love with Cloud and yes we are talking about Cloud, he clearly is because of the way he acts. With Aerith he doesn't act like he normally does with his friends.

That's actually ingenious.

Funny enough if he kills you with his ultimate Octaslash attack the camera zooms into his smirking face lol

That must be the first time he’s ever not smug faced in front of the party, it’s so satisfying

Aerith is a real Danger. She is above him and stronger then him. Not in a 1v1 fight but at everything else. Pretty sure this right here are Sephiroth and Aerith after Advent Children. She ruins his Plans again again and again... Metor, Geostigma and now again. But this is why he needs Cloud even more that Time. He can't beat Aerith. But using Cloud and probaly Zack too could break her.

@@cloudxz92 yuppp. She also has the power of fold up chair

It's such a pivotal moment. He kept his cool in Advent Children and he kept his cool at the end of Remake. This is the first time we ever see his brow furrowed. Knowing that Aerith threw a monkey wrench in his plans.

At what time? Not doubting you, but I missed it

@acceleratorjokerdarkness238 at the end, after he's defeated and falls to his knee, you can see he's pissed as he'll when he lowers his sword

@@vihurah9554 thank you!

@@vihurah9554 Considering Aerith survived his murder attempt and beat him black and blue, it's easy to see why.

No denying that but I’m really worried that they’re overusing it for the remake series. They really have to do something legendary for the final fight. It will just feel the wind has been taken out of the sails.

​@@sanddry738they are not overusing it lmao stop being so dramatic. Sephiroth is LITERALLY the main villain of FF7

@@michaelrobosa146 You can ABSOLUTELY overuse a theme even if it’s the BBEG of the series. The point of a final boss theme is that it should be amazing to witness during the fight and fit the themes. But it gets stale if it’s copy pasted 3 times even if the song is legendary.

@@sanddry738 nah, shut up hater

@@michaelrobosa146 Lol wanting things to be better so it can be great is not hating. But you seem too shallow to get that far.

It's not a competition my dude

Why is she not in a Dissidia game if she's "THE main heroine?" Delusional ass.

It is; between her and Sephiroth.

@@teejay5432Sephiroth acknowledged her. Perhaps threatened by her as well.

@@nottomiokagiyu9830 She's in Dissidia 012 as an Assist.

Beautiful scene and beautiful music ❤

The cloud memory restoration scene in part 3 is gonna be so good.

Agreed Red 13 also recognises Aerith after this. Think the other just can't see her like they can't always see the whispers.

​@@umhi9778the point is they can see the whispers. Whoever touches one who saw a whisper is able to see them too from that moment.

@@user-sm6gn3nl6o yeah maybe I missed something but it seemed like not all of them can see the whispers all the time.

She's fighting like hell for her man Cloud.

She's going to finish him off for good. She'll come back for Cloud soon!

Nah. Make it Aerith, Cloud, and Zack. The three main characters of Final Fantasy 7 🔥

You guys are thinking too small. The final fight should allow you to control all 10 characters simultaneously.

Thinking from a game design standpoint, Part 1 concludes with a 3-on-1 battle against a Sephiroth who seems like he's mostly just lazily sparring with you, and in the end he effortlessly disarms Cloud once he's had his fun. Part 2 concludes with two separate 2-on-1 battles against a Sephiroth who is suped up from the Whispers and, while he may not necessarily be giving it his "all", he's definitely fighting a lot harder than he was at the end of Part 1, and this time he's injured badly enough that he actually falls to one knee and decides to retreat. Following this trend, while I imagine Part 3 will almost definitely conclude with some sort of Super Saiyan Safer-Sephiroth fighting against the full party fought in turns, sorta like Jenova was in this game, the final boss fight will be a true, honest-to-god all-out duel between Sephiroth and Cloud. No second chances, no retreating, no Aerith or Zack saving the day. Cloud will be forced to fight the battle he would originally fight several years later during the events of Advent Children, against an *even more powerful* Sephiroth. Or, hell, they're talking about multiversal shit, could you imagine a final boss fight that's just Cloud against TWO Sephiroths?

​@@michaelrobosa146Damn that is the same thing that I thought about. That really would be a great boss fight with them three.

@@michaelrobosa146 the final fight would be Cloud 1v1 Sephiroth. as much as people like zack, he is not the main character.

I need Aerith to put on her sunglasses and say something like, "what, homecoming not going as planned?"

me too. I haven't even passed 😭

@@minilegion finally got passed it yesterday idek how but omg. Spammed fire and Cloud’s ascension and Aerith died lol

​@@boopnoodle6947I'll have to try that! I have been stuck on that part too

Please help I’ve been stuck for 2 hours

@@ShinySonic my guy it took me like 6 lmao..if you are stuck right before his final attack (tempus finnus), make sure to always hit the masumune or the wings when he does his big attacks (whirlwind, octoslash, spirit canon thing) with fire. ALSO make sure u have at least 1 ATB bar at all times, since he can drop u to 1 hp with Heartless Angel. For the tempus finnus part, make sure to heal up before he gets to like 1/6 of his hp bar and just keep dodging and using wind blades to build up ur ATB. Spam fire/fira with both Aerith and Cloud and save up their limits (esp ascension) for this moment.

Agreed

I feel like cloud made another timeline qhere he saved aerith when he blocked sephiroth's attack. It makes sense when you look at the effects used after cloud blocked it. Plus, it might have been what sephiroth wanted. I mean, im pretty sure his whispers were the ones that made an opening for cloud to come in. He just didnt expect aerith to show up from the other timeline and help cloud. Thats why he claims he underestimated her

@@xmant8842 way i see that line is that i think this Sephiroth is Advent Children Sephiroth, who is travelling through time and fucking everything up via the lifestream. However, Aerith can also do the same, so this is Advent Children Aerith who followed Sephiroth aswell and is controlling the white whisperers to stop him (Sephiroth probably didnt know it was her commandinf them)

Rebuild of Evangelion all over again. Note: I am not complaining.

@@ZachStone3213 I totally forgot about the rebuild series, that works for FFVIIR and be a sequel trilogy at the same time. I need to watch Evangelion sometime. XD

#nevergofullretard

It really was a good game aside from the mini quests and all, but story wise had me invested until this fight. This whole string of boss fights with no save point ruined it for me.

Keep the ascencion limit and make three atb bar with synergy until sphiroth end of nigh and spam infinity end ability after using cloud limit

Why do you need save points? Can you not just put your ps5 on sleep mode?

She beats Sephiroth to a pulp and forces him to run to mommy Jenova.

same lol just couldn't get him to stagger quick enough

Same. Can’t make him stagger. Always ended up getting Octaslash Prime which I couldn’t survive.

Sephi is within the Lifestream these entire two games everytime you see him besides the endings are just apparition thanks to black robes and the Genova cells they all share. That’s how Sephi can affect fate only because the real him is within the life stream and now that airth is also there (the last cetra) she can also effect fate seen now by the white whispers. That’s what we see in this scene this was the actual airth and sephi fighting within the life stream. That’s why the party comments on cloud completely vanishing because he did.

Chances are he did make a timeline where shes alive. After all, it does do the "new timeline made" rainbow effect as cloud block's sephiroth's sword

Remember Stranger Things' S1 finale when Will Byers could kind of cross dimensions between the normal world and the Upside Down? That's Cloud right now. He can see Aerith in the dimension others can't.

@@renzocalcagno536 I’m stuck on sephiroth, Where Aerith comes to help out. Put the PS5 on rest mode I need a break

@@alexlopez-dk4jq me as well and it's 1:30an lmao! Just put mine to rest mode until the next morning Edit: Beat him the very next day! now we wait 4 more years until part 3

I'm glad I'm not the only one, been trying for 2 hours straight, and it already 6 AM 🥲💔

Been here for 2 days on the boss. I’m beyond irritated can’t even use my PlayStation

You're not the only one, I didn't wanted to restart since the beginning so my PS5 stayed in rest mode. I checked some advice online and tried my best to learn Sephiroth every move, after 13 tries I did it. You have to use some skill and switch between Aerith and Cloud at the good moment

Great Gospel will be cast to turn the tides. You watch.

I would have been pissed 😂😂😂

imagine how tired we are

​@@jemandjemand2362imagine being a crybaby

@@fleeplayTV you dont got the joke i suppose.... you weeb loser

I think Will be everyone vs Sephiroth, yes everyone even Zack and Aerith like the fight in Space against Sephiroth in the meteor and Aerith and Zack appers with lifestream top help cloud and others

Whoelse other than Sephiroth tho?

Imagine if they throw is for a loop and have a new final boss after the original.

Since we got Bizzaro Sephiroth here, we’ll definitely get Safer Sephiroth and maybe a new form for the final fight in the next game or maybe Jenova’s original form

It's Sephiroth obviously.

Use firaga and you're good to go, more than lnce of course It took me 2 firaga for normal mode, and anytime he use the one winged cannon on masamune or octaslash firaga need one hit to each part to stagger

Hard one She either thinks about giving her white materia or and more probably her saving from Sephiroth but there are too many interpretations, what really happened there.

"NOW WHAT? I KILLED YOU! YOU MUST BE A GHOST!" "Can a ghost do this, Sephiroth?!"

Happen to me got all his health down doing limit break at the end.. and he did that at the end of my limit game is broken like my moms back

That happened to me to and then I beat him 😂 cant wait for part 3.

It seems like the black ones are Sephiroth's and the white ones are Aerith's.

@@karlthorkildson4650 i thought so too

They're called Whispers. They're time space wraiths from the Lifestream who are here to ensure that history is preserved. Essentially, they're trying to keep things faithful to the original canon. Unfortunately at some point after Advent Children, Sephiroth hijacked them, giving him the ability to travel through time and alter history

@@kaihedgie1747 i forgot what they were called, sorry. And thanks for reminding me

@@kaihedgie1747Sephiroth was controlling them in Remake? I thought they were trying to stop him.

same dude smh

Me either, I’ve gotten super close to staggering him but just can’t get it done yet

I had that problem, like, 20 times. You just have to pull off a barver as soon as you stagger him thst final timeand that will end him. At least, that's how it went for me

I finally got him. I think the issue I was having was whenever he’d start the ability, it was right after I staggered him so I had to build the bar all the way up. Luckily his stagger bar was already partially there, so I hit him with Cross Slash from cloud, soul drain from Aerith, then mashed away at him till he staggered and I was just able to beat him.

How do you avoid the octoslash prime?? That is my main problem I can avoid the move where he spins around with the whispers just fine

@@sirsonic1832 his last octaslash move is unavoidable and is made to kill the player hence the end screen of him smirking at you. You have to stagger him or kill him before he can do that attack. So keep attacking him during the end is nigh using synergy abilities and limits or 2 atb attacks.

@@SixpathsofCain right I kinda figured. I’ve been able to weaken octolash by attacking his different parts but I don’t for sure know their ifinity I’m pretty sure physical attacks don’t work on those but just wanna use magic attacks right? Im only able to take down one at most weakening it to just base octoslash

@@SixpathsofCain thx for taking the time to help others btw

Kill him before he can activate it

Did you figure out a solution?

@@anabanana4526 I might try and play the game on a non 4k tv and see if it changes the resolution. Or maybe wait for a patch.

@@wrayday7149 okay so this reply is delayed but I did beat it like a day after you commented. I had to stagger him a bit more before Seph's final phase hits. I found that when his gauge wasn't down enough, it would be impossible for me to end him once the whispers start whirling. i also saved Cloud's limit break for that phase and i got'm.

She is there, thats aerith from the timeline where we did the QTE and saved her i think. Edit: i don't think she a ghost because she comes from a portal followed by the white whisper that only appears in the timeline where we did the QTE.

It’s either cloud going insane and imagining her or she actually exist as a ghost in the life stream and cloud can see her.

@@milkofcows Its more likely the latter but he's still going insane both despite and due to it. Its supposed to be something sweet, but something is bitter about it. Aerith is not going to push him too hard, but because of that, it makes it easy to look like its secretly malicious.

QTE?@@fadlanfadilah1171

It's the Aerith from Zack's timeline or another timeline which is why she disappears after helping Cloud

Build your limit gauge or your synergy abilities and make sure to use at least one of those during his final attack. Switch characters often during the fight. Took me a couple tries too you got this!

I just became a distraction in the vortex and let Aerith finish him off with a firaga once I used clouds limit break

0:21 is called "Let's end this - together" and 7:20 is called "Everybody's Waiting" :) The OST isn't on Spotify yet, but I think it's on Apple music, but it ain't free. The entire thing is on soundcloud though lol

@@garymawn thanks a lot! 💗

Greatest final boss I've ever played in a game and I've been playing for 30 years.

Once I figured out his routine, I think it took me an hour, maybe less. I saved Cloud's limit to use on Seph when he brings out his "The End is Nigh" to pressure him, and I quickly have Aerith focus on healing. I took full advantage of those giga Mist potions or w/e they're called.

Personally I killed Sephiroth with infinitys end Did you use magic attacks on his wing and his sword?

You gotta do all that again. I did the same and she came into the fight with nothing lol
