Reno, of the Turks One thing I have to admit I wasn't entirely sure about was the constant referencing to the wolf, and its appearance throughout the film. I don't remember anything about a wolf in Final Fantasy VII -- the closest I can think of is Seto, Nanaki's father. It was cool... but I wasn't entirely sure about the meaning of it. An animal manifestation of Zack/Aeris, perhaps (even though we see them in human form at the end)? Or Cloud's long lost guardian spirit? lol And OMG. After watching it a sixth time, the music that still gets my heart pumping is AVALANCHE vs. Bahamut. Every time. The music kicks backside. Badly. lol. And I also love how the moment the second half of the movie begins (the return to Midgar), the action just does NOT let up. It's non-stop all the way through to the end of the movie. AWESOME.

Ooo, him! I thought he was the one you were talking about. He reminded me of Ryuji too. He's awesome!
And it was funny that his hair was one of the brightest things in the entire movie. XD

Yeah. Well...thats the calibur of music you expect from a Final Fantasy or...well from Nobuo anyway. You know one thing I would have liked to see. A chocobo. In that graphics. I just wanted to see it like...I think you all know what I mean. Yay for chocobos ^_^.

LOL I can so imagine Kadaj riding a Chocobo to chase Cloud if his motorcycle is out of commission. That'd be funny. XD
Cloud shoulda been on a Chocobo in the ending credits! They're so much happier looking than old black motorcycles.

YES! Thats brilliant Kaori. Chocobo ending, as opposed to Cloud driving around on his boring motorbike...ok...so the bikes not boring. But a BRIGHT YELLOW CHOCOBO would just make the whole end me so much cooler ^_^

Haha that would certainly be an interesting thing to see.... ... Especially with your love for Naruto. Final Fantasy 14 would be all ninjary.
Anyways, back on topic now. So. Who sorta understood the whole story right the way through...the first time. I mean, I've played FFVII and I didn't really follow the storyline very well. It was only at the end when the big man made his appearance, that I really understood what was going on.

I haven't played it but I could figure it out pretty quickly. Like, that they were after parts of Jenova and such..... but some parts of the backstory I needed help with. And I didn't actually think that Sephiroth would come back until he DID. That was crazy, but awesome.

I understood, but the first time through I was actually busier drooling over the graphics. XD I only played a little tiny bit of the game and watched my brother play, but I know most of the story. So yeah. I didn't have any trouble following. ^^;

Well. As a crazed FF7 nut, I pretty much followed it the whole way through. I was wondering how they'd make a storyline out of it, but they succeeded quite well, I reckon.
Within its depths, the plot of Final Fantasy VII revolves around Jenova as much as it does between Cloud and Sephiroth: Jenova's the thing that ties them together. In fact, it's her cells that tie everybody important to the storyline together.
Something also told me that Sephiroth was going to return as well. I didn't know how, but I knew that there HAD to be some battle between Cloud and Sephiroth. I guess I was quite shocked to find that Rufus had Jenova all the time (a surprise I should've seen coming, really). And the second Kadaj got his hands on the sealed box with Oka-san in it, I figured "Sephy's going to make an appearance later on. Yep."
Like K-chan says, crazy but awesome.

Yeah, I was also surprised Rufus had Jenova the whole time. Although it's not as shocking for ME to be surprised as Mazzy... I thought it was funny how Rufus criticized Kadaj for being shocked that he had Jenova's neck. XD "Notice it quicker, you fool without any obligations to your parent."

Well...which shock was bigger...Rufus is ALIVE?!?! Or that he ALSO has Jenova...actually...I loved that scene...where he flung the cape off. BANG! Jumps down, then saved by Reno with the net and...yeah ^_^
