Final Fantasy 7: The Original, The Remake, The Legacy

i might feel a little mean toward it

don’t know how much longer i’ll be able to go on under the specter of the scene where tifa barrels the camera and asks what kind of outfit i think she should wear

Not to get defensive of the writing but I definitely read Tifa’s response there as sarcasm.

i hope you’re right! i had just switched to japanese and only had the caption to go off

but of course yes either way there’s has been just wild boneheaded shit constantly whether there was sarcasm here or not

I missed this maybe, but is Chadley an android or something? I thought he worked for Shinra but they just offered to assist me in taking down Shinra.

honestly I wish I’d recorded my wife’s commentary last night…

“that’s really racist. that’s like, really really racist. did they think making it that loud would make it not racist? I don’t like this at all.”

“I remember my ex boyfriend playing this but I don’t think I could’ve disliked it this much. the games you play aren’t usually like this, are they? I feel like they aren’t.”

“it sounds like a children’s cartoon with those voices. did he just say he fucked your mother?”

Jessie shows Cloud a red materia, which is just a plain orb, and asks “what is it” They go back and forth, An Apology, A Down Payment, A Promise. Materia, whatever else it is, it is a most astonishing commodity.

it looks like materia requires if not training to use now than special gear. of you hit some of the soldiers in the first part they go “he can use MAGIC!?”

Yeah Cloud has a line which implies materia is something cops and SOLDIERS use, but I dont know how it gets in the hands of regular citizens. Weaponsmiths are making gear to use them, so it must be out there…

I was surprised to see so many armed people in general.

Under no pretext should arms and materia be surrendered

someone on tumblr last night posted a scan of a fanart page from a japanese magazine circa 1997. that page contained this piece of art:

seeing it dredged up decades-old memories of seeing it posted around on ancient fora and geocities sites and the like, sometimes with the lie that it was an official poster for the ffvii anime that had just come out in japan. it was cool to finally discover the actual source of it, though.
