It is Aerith, at least in the Japanese one. There was a whole debate about this shit back in the days too. Either way, Advent Children credits her as Aerith, and so did the promotional material for the movie and whatever merchandise gets released.Quote:

Was rather cool watching them shine through the goth kid's (TEAM SEPHIROTH IS GO!) arms though.One that could finish an idea, explain what it was doing, and not rely on deus ex machinas for every single plot point and close call. Also, make Sephiroth's plot at least somewhat close to what he was after in FFVII. He went from hateful, vengeful, "I want to become God!" to "I'm just helping Lifestream continue its journey across the universe, not my fault if it kills you all!" But then, he had no need to be in there and was just fan service anyway, so whatever.Quote:

To be fair, the game came out like eight years ago, and there was a lot of back and forth before release if the romaji version of the name was "Aeris" or "Aerith." So it isn't like we're calling Cloud "Buford" or something like that.Quote:

They definitely should have.Quote:

I know when it comes to FF7 things I get wayyy too sentimental, so I cried bucketloads. (lol emo.) It did not disappoint me in the least, and it was fucking gorgeous. I love it.
/edit
also, it very much sounds like the dude from Glay singing the ending song. confirm/deny?
That was pretty much all he did in FFVII.Quote:
