Followed by: "We'll meet again soon"

to me it seems so out of place

You realize how tragic his character is after playing this

Ikr? CC Seph was a utter gem & boy do I miss him. Especially now.

I think if angeal was still alive he could have helped sepiroth.

This is why Sephiroth is best boi!! Too bad he gone insane finding out his past.

@Rodrick Young Im sure he did when he joined the lifestream, as his real mother Lucrecia Crescent is encased in a crystal of mako infused with the lifestream. Though his urge from the Jenova cells that bonded with him on a cellular level to create the S Cells are what drive him to be who he is.

i doubt it i mean i doubt that Zack could be his friend - all he did just insulted Sephiroth for his origin, poor Seph

I think he sees both Angeal & Genesis’ traits in Zack.

Tsuko Para no himself and Angeal. Genesis confrims this at the end of the game.

@@eriksigalraven8340 nah zack just didn't know about sephi's origins story one day they're friends the other he destroyed an entire village with it's innocent people what do you expecte yourself to do in that case poor zack but at the same poor sephi's it wasn't his fault all his life was a lie if zack knew that before I believe he would set things out sephi's would still be the same good guy and zack would still be alive , well sadly that never happened... *go to hell hojo*

@@7fadi77 Jeez... use some punctuation.

not only you. i think so too. :)

Hell I think we all agree, this man needs a redemption.

I think the fact he was such a great hero makes him better as a villian because of the contrast

Nah, dude. You're not alone there

Jon D honestly same he was so damn pure it’s a shame he went crazy :’ )

Exactly.

Ah a Two Face quote. Even though Two Face is a Batman villain, and Sephiroth was played by Superman himself.

Maybe they should make a revamp where Sephiroth gets saved from his own darkness by the light of Cloud and his friends and they can finally have Sephiroth come back to being the hero and good guy he once was....That would be a nice end to FF7

@@randomanimefan0154 Agreed! That would be amazing

@@randomanimefan0154 i'd like to think Genesis fits the role better for that than Cloud. After CC and everything else, Genesis seems to be the only one left who's capable of reaching out to Sephiroth. No one else in the living world would, they all hate him esp Cloud. But Genesis would understand, even if he decides to become the Planet's hero at the ending. At least a final confrontation them would provide closure.

@@randomanimefan0154 Cloud would basically become Sora lol

@@usmanazhar9170 huh? But sora isn’t evil

right. cause a lot confusion of sephiroth's mind.

» Atom Production pretty sure he sees angeal in Zack

Such nice guy like him become a most Villains in final Fantasy series, how sad..

If you call that humor xD

Indeed

Affan Mahdhir THINKING ABOUT THIS

cant help but feel bad for him just...can someone give him a hug?

@@-TakingSomeLs really. His former self is entirely different than the Sephiroth we see today. It's painful to see what the hero has become. I know he doesn't deserve it now but I wish I could give him a big hug for the kind Sephy he had in himself once, even if I get impaled trying doing so 😢

@@anushak.8340 me too, i feel bad for sephiroth. i want to give him a big hug. But i scared that his sword Will kiss my body:)

@@hologramoustenebris5734 Read the fanfic 'The cold hearted boy' ( by TheCalamity) on Ao3. It's quite popular in the fandom I think. It made me love him even more 🥺

Jackal Strife WAIT WHAT???? I THOUGHT IT WAS SUPERMAN!!!!!

@@EvelynL.1112 Actually,Newbern voiced both,Superman and Sephiroth

@@elisabethacronqvist7859 I know that, we're talking about who George Newbern's favorite role to play.

I might be one year late, but I personally love his role in "Father of the Bride". Whenever I watch it, I can't unsee Sephiroth anymore. 😂

That is awesome! I think it's epic that he plays both one of the world's greatest villain characters and one of the world's most iconic heroes too.

😭

I /always/ want to hug sephiroth

Sorry for necro'ing this post, but I fully agree. I like Sephiroth for what he was before he went insane, and not for the villain he became, or the butchered remains he is now.

ffantasia24 its worse to knowing how while he was nice - everyone especially zack considered him as a lifeless object and lowest creature over whom no one would griefing

Blame Hojo and Jenova..

Yeah. I feel the same way about Griffith from Berserk.

Did you know Sephiroth and Griffith share the same Japanese voice actors?

***** Yeah, FFVII reality is pretty grim overall.

Mhm. Many religious stories even have it that Lucifer was the one closest to god, and then he fell. It doesn't surprise the idea that the kindest of people can become the cruelest of demons when their ideals and hopes have been shattered.

STAY WOKE MY FRIENDS.

Loveless

Genesis is still alive though... He is in the secret ending of Dirge of Cerberus, so.we might get a sequel where he's the main villain again

Big Boss You are so wrong, Its been implied that the next time Genesis awakens, it is because the world needs a hero. His issues are resolved in crisis core and he already regained his soldier pride.

@@trungbui7304 He wanted to die. But Minerva revived him and healed him. The reason for her to do that is unknown. But even if he will be the "hero" he did not acted on it: when Sepiroth tried to destroy the planet he stayed on his ass. And for some reason he helped Hojo to recreat Omega. How is that considered "heroic" ? He also took away the dead Omega impling he has further plans with it.

And Genesis looked like he got the better ending

Honeymoonrapsody22 yea, its terrible to be treated like slave or tool who lives only as long as could be useful to others

+Honeymoonrapsody22 Karma is a bitch,ladies and gentlemen.

Not as bad for him to do what he did

iroth

Kale Mckay Yeah, that makes it even more sadder.

K r i s i s nah he was doing his buddy a favor. Now they together in the lifestream.

@@holitinne Based

Did you know that sephiroth and aerith were supposed to be lovers, then tetsuya nomura changed them to siblings but then he would be a lesser villain, instead they just added Zack to the last puzzle to be with aerith instead. that also explains why they have the same front bangs...

@@holitinne well hey, not anymore lol

Indeed

Also thank to whoever found George Newbern who fits Sephiroth's role perfectly? 😘

Kelsey Curles I love me ;)

Yeeees please ♡

All hail Sephiroth

Of course he seemed cold. Remember, Cloud was a Shinra grunt at the time.

When they went to nebelhiem he was already suspicious. Well that's what it seemed like.

Only Two Peoble remember him then. Cloud who was not Clear in his Head and a Nobody Soldier and Tifa a 15 Year old Girl at this Time. That could be a Reason why Sephiroth was cold for us when they talkt about him. Not to forget that they hade pure Hate for Sephiroth because of Niebelheim.

Yeah ngl, Sephiroth would have been a great ally to Zack and the others had he not been misguided about his origins. If Vincent had woken up prior to the Nibelheim incident, he would have mentioned Lucrecia to him and how Hojo was responsible for his birth.

@@rogue1248Bro if Zack woke him up from under the mansion it would’ve changed everything, mans so polite he let Vincent sleep tho. I love how Sephiroth is just so self aware though like “I know you have questions Zack, I do too. We’ll figure it out later, go hang with your girlfriend.”

Oh totally, he was probably very emotionally neglected as a kid, being raised by shinra scientists and all. If he'd had a proper upbringing maybe he would've never snapped

...Didn’t she try to kill herself which was why you find her in crystal?

He needed someone who understood him and treated him equally and not those who used him.

All Sephiroth ever wanted was a family. Somewhere to belong. But good god maybe Lucretia ain't the best option. 😅 I mean, as a biologist myself, HELLO SHE INJECTED HER UNBORN CHILD WITH UNIDENTIFIED ALIEN CELLS? That's not even sound practice! And as a child who had a volatile mother as well, she was NOT mentally equipped to care for a child. Lucretia needed help. If anything, Vincent would've been a good father figure for him, honestly. He's got his head screwed on better than everyone else in that lab, I think. That being said, I do wonder what would have happened if Lucretia emerged from her crystal during the events of the game. Or at any point in seph's life, really.

Don’t forget daddy hojo

stevieFFmaster why on earth he should? - its not like one single someone ever gives shit about him

Zack, Angeal and Genesis did but they're all dead. Aside from Genesis who somehow returns at the end of Dirge of Cerberus.

+stevieFFmaster Genesis didn't somehow return, we see that he didn't really die and Weiss and Nero took him away. It's also been hinted that Sephiroth's friendship with Genesis and Angeal was rocky, with him saying "I wonder" when Zack told him they were tight. I'm sure he felt betrayed when neither of them came to him about their plans and just left. Or maybe they did and it didn't go well, we don't know. As for Zack, he barely knew Sephiroth. So all in all it's not unreasonable that Sephiroth would think no one cares about him. Despite that he still showed kindness for a long time to people, I think that's more then most people would do after living the life he had lived.

+Lunar Blossom ye its really suck to be him, on his place i wouldnt be so kind and i would beat shit out of zack on constant basis - he is the most annoying out there

ye - they were such a best friends that when sephiroth said "my mother died" he never bothered give his condolescense - well, it was expectable - mean he considered sephiroth as sort of animal or worse, he always disparaged him so of course it was never occured to him to treat sephiroth as human being - he even scolded lazard for being kind to sephiroth cause in his opinion sephiroth is a freak, therefore shouldnt be treated with kindness

@@KitchenWitchery Me too! I fully expect Part 7 of 7 to be Operation Save Seph. :)

@@Athlynne If this is the route they take with the remake, I will be the happiest person on earth. Sephiroth deserves redemption more than anyone.

wrote this 8 YEARS ago wth did the time go...

@@shooshooshooshooshooter Hey now it's been twelve :D

I fucking hate Hojo. I felt sorry for Genesis.

Kylo Ren Most of it Is Hollender and Hojo's fault, if they treated there sons like human beings and told them truth then crap wouldn't had hit the fan but nope. they were just Science project to those dead beats. 😞

3. Destroy all the files, notes, and data containing details on his creation.

Honestly, Hojo is the real villain of FFVII. While Jenova may be the origin of the conflict, Hojo is the one that facilitated its return, and completely willingly.

Or Shinra could have not manipulated and lied to him.

aww, you're probably right!

The ultimate fan service lol. It would be kinda cheap but as a fan I'd be hyped haha.

It will. Your wish will come true... The First Soldier is coming

playing as Sephiroth would completely kill off the character's mystery side and charisma, although it would be interesting in gameplay. I preferred a full movie about his youth (with Hojo, Genesis and Angeal would be Heaven) like Advent Children, with a more interesting story. Sephiroth has a complex personality which would be more apt to be transcribed in a book or a movie. Besides, before he went mad upon finding out his origins, fighting was all Sephiroth did. There wouldn't be a lot of varied missions with this character. But I'm only talking about the Crisis Core period and before, and that's only my opinion.

apparently enix said if we were to play as sephiroth, the game would be too easy bc he would easily kill anyone.

He is the best Sephiroth...

+Fallon Jeffers Hate him. Killed one of my favourite characters.

dentedsky Aerith is my favorite too :) adore her. But Sephiroth is not to blame, to me.

+Fallon Jeffers I blame Dr. Gast. e_e Why him? Because his carelessness gave rise to a dangerous science project while his negligence gave Dr. Hojo more power. When things took a turn for the worse, he jetted and left Dr. Hojo to his own devices and Sephiroth to fend for himself. Dr. Gast had already known about the fate of Lucrecia by then. You'd think he'd try to take Sephiroth with him during his escape or come back for him. But nope, Dr. Gast simply starts his own family and conducts his research over the origins of Jenova. In that regard, you can understand why I blame him for everything. He's one of the major sources of Sephiroth's abandonment issues (second to Sephiroth's mother dying). The very man he looked up to as a boy didn't come back to save him. Is it really a wonder why Sephiroth clings to an alien who promises him the world? Because, everyone else (from Gast to Hojo to even Lucrecia) let Sephiroth down. :/ So yeah. Dr. Gast is the one I hate. e_e

Gast was the one person Sephiroth loved and trusted

***** But that's the thing... Gast still abandoned Sephiroth. He could've taken Sephiroth with him or at least stayed to make sure nothing happened to him. Instead, Gast hightailed it and started his own family. Gast already knew how fucked up Hojo was, but left the man to his own madness anyway. We only know Sephiroth respected Gast back when Sephiroth was sane. But afterward? Keep in mind, Sephiroth gained knowledge of the Lifestream after his death (which is how he learned of the Black Materia), so he would've known Aerith was Gast's daughter. If you're an emotional boy abandoned by a man you considered a close fatherly figure (which is implied in the game), chances are high you'll be filled with bitterness. I suspect Sephiroth killing Aerith was a personal matter for him on top of a priority; a bit of sibling rivalry and a way to cut ties with a man he once trusted.

SAME :((

He would be a badass hero instead of a villain

Even still, this game went quite a ways to humanize the guy. This transition into evil made a ton more sense than the one scene good, next scene evil we get in the mansion.

the reason why enix apparently didn't is bc it would be "too easy" since sephiroth is like, the best of the best. he could prolly one shot anyone without a wince.

I agree.

I see you replying anyone's comment on Sephiroth. You're a sephiroth fan or hater?

Farhin Badhon Why do you ask?

No special reason. just askin.

Farhin Badhon Okay

He did all kinds of bad shit tf

@@Killer_Kris7 Yes and in no way am I ignoring that but as Zack even said, he wasn't the same person he once knew.

Who knows? It’s probably just a rotted as his body is by now.

Main Universe Superman was kind compared to the Injustice Superman. Superman gives hope while Sephiroth gives despair.
