Looked impressive back then. The animation still holds up pretty well even today

It`s sole salving grace are it`s visuals... FF VII really did not need this senseless sequel "story" (or any of the subsequent games for that matter). The "plot" is just a bland excuse to do fan service cameos and some cool action sequences and that`s just boring if you ask me. There is no emotional weight behind any of it.

> TL;DR Nice tech demo, lousy movie

>What did you think of Final Fantasy VII Advent Children when you first saw it? What do you think of it now?
saw it this year the first time.

I think it´s the best fighting choreography we ever got in animation.Even monty om loved it.

It´s an peak we havent reached since. The story is bad-ish but barely passable. You cant expect them to write to save their lives. Idk why in japan writers are looked down upon....

Also best version of sephiroth ost, every beat fits the action

As a fan of the original game Advent Children didn't make much sense but it was good stupid fun regardless
The fights were cool, Bahamut's new design was neat, the soundtrack rocked, the world (what was shown of it) and characters were well realized, and Sephiroth was a suitably awesome crescendo at the end
There's not much of substance to the film, it's ridiculous fan-pandering nostalgia bait, but it was novel and enjoyable in an entirely disposable sort of way, back before Square started relentlessly milking the original game

It's shit, just like everything else HACKmura touches.

I want to fuck yuffie

Hated it. The story was garbage, seeing the characters go from anime style to looking like J-Pop idols was jarring, and the action had this weird, weightless feel to it, like watching a child endlessly banging action figures against one another -- I guess if you find that charming that's cool, but that's not what I had imagined fights in Final Fantasy would be like.

I haven't revisited it since release and feel no inclination to.

>when you first saw it
Who are these characters and did I missed anything between FF: TSW and this?
>what do you think of it now
Wow I really don't care about FF other than that isekai manga.

It's nonsensical chuuni garbage for manchildren, just like the rest of that shitty moviegame franchise.

Judging by contents of your post it should be right up your alley user-kun.

I don’t like that they made Cloud into a full blown femboy.

Cope seethe and dilate

Liked it a lot, still do.

It looked like a nice tech demo. The story is absolute garbage and all the characters from the original FFVII were ruined. It’s seriously a miserable experience to watch. I don’t know hiw anyone but an edgy emo kid could like what they did to Cloud. Not only is he a whiny little bitch that ignored his character arc from the original game, but he now dresses like a complete faggot.

>characters go from anime style to looking like J-Pop idols was jarring
I don't know about Advent Children, but in the Remake it's mostly Cloud, though. Aerith and Tifa look great. Barret looks perfect. Rude and Reno are on point. Zack does look a bit jpopish, but nowhere nearly as bad as Cloud.
Sephiroth and Rufus looked great.

As a kid, it was the coolest thing ever, particularly the One-Winged Angel metal remix.
Now I think it's a boring slog, an unnecessary sequel that ruined the game's ambiguous ending, and opened the door for the Compilation and all its retarded retcons.
The remake probably wouldn't be as retarded were it not for AC.

I thought it looked cool despite not having played the game before. Looks were pretty much the only thing it had going for it.
>Advent Children came out when you were in high school
FUCK I'm old.

more like kpop dude with yellow wig and blue contact lense

>in prime ff age during psx era
>hasn't played 7
Grim.

Why is Nomura so desperate to paint Cloud as a faggy emo?

It was cool, it make possible this clip from my childhood that I love.

It probably strikes a balance between what fujos like and what edgy teen boys like. It's a shame to see, though, because Cloud wasn't like that at all in the game
>starts off cocky because he thought he was an elite SOLIDER

>then Advent Children decides he should be a brooding faggot because of MUH JENOVA AIDS and other contrived nonsense
>that is now how he will forever be, even in his shitty Kindgom Hearts cameo

Looks cool, but its retarded shounen shit.
I still think the same.

Music arranges are top stuff though. That Jenova one....HMMFFFF

FUCK Advent Children, it's gay shit for FAGGOTS. Now Final Fantasy: Legend of the Cyrstal? That's an anime worth talking about
>sequel to FFV, easily one of the greatest RPGs ever made

Honestly the designs and character writing are insanely faithful in the remake. It's the small slice of the story and the alt universe plot that make the actual story such a pain.

2004 was pretty cringe but looked good. 2009 is actually good though. I've rewatched it many times. Probably the best 3d action that humanity will ever create

The most I know about this is that Osama bin Laden had this on his hard drive.

a bit heavy handed with the imagery and the message is as subtle as a hammer to the face but when i saw it for the first time i was 11 so i thought it was the coolest shit in the world.
still haven't played any of the games to this day.

There's a message..? What is it?

What message? All I remember is
>Cloud is now a faggot with a weird sword that is made of even more weird swords
>Lots ofpeople now have Jenova AIDS
>There's a Sephiroth clone pied-pippering children with the Jenova AIDS
>Rufus and the Turks are now kind of a good guys, but Rufus also has AIDS
>The clones beat up Cloud and everyone, stealing their materia
>They summon bahamut
>One of the clones turns into Sephiroth
>DBZ-esque battle between Cloud and Sephiroth
>Aeris flashback or ghost or some shit

I thought "3DCG shit isn't anime" and "OP is a moron".

Retard lol

It was okayish. I rewatched it a few months ago, and my opinion didn't change, the animation is nice, but it drags at times or is downright boring often.

I want to fuck Cloud.

ff7 remake had a terrible storyline, but I would be a liar if I said this wasn't the most fun I had from a jrpg in a long time. Why can't more turn base rpg adopt this battle system

The action scenes were good. That's all it needs.

Disliked the wimpified J-pop looking Cloud. Tifa was hot. The other characters were goofy. The story had rubbish pacing but I enjoyed the final fight with sephiroth and the re-made 'one winged angel' soundtrack. Now I think it's a mediocre CG film where Square-Enix was just flexing it's technology muscles knowing fanboys would cream themselves and watch it anyway.

He’s beautiful, and I say this with an unblemished record of staunch heterosexuality.

Get in line. Tifa's girlfriend is getting fucked every night raw.

>Final Fantasy VII Advent Children
It was great quality animation back then.
And after all the years, it still looks good today.
It has the right bittersweetness of Aerith with respect to Cloud getting on with his life.

Only Aerith is allowed to.

user, I...

I prefer Clouds relationship with Aerith between the two girls. Tifa is pretty, but boring. Neither ship is canon so I don't get the fanwars.

Think the writer for the movie said in an interview that he wanted to have Cloud in the middle of his identity struggle as we knew in FFVII back in AC, even though he got out of that funk by the end of it.

The animation is ok but the story is just pure autism.

Masterpiece.
>now
Masterpiece.

Thing is that the only criticism I have heard about the movie is "I dun get it", which is retarded taking in consideration Sephirot explains to you the entire movie in a very simple manner.

>Neither ship is canon
You're literally as braindead as Aeris is.

It looked nice, was disappointing in a lot of ways and the fact sephiroth had a single angel wing and came back was really weird. Clouds personality did a 180 from the end of the original game and that was really offputting

But neither ship is canon? We got blatant teasing for both sides and then that's it. Maybe the remake will change that, but I doubt it.

t. Sephiroth

What was so bad about the story in relation to the original? I'm asking since I'm seeing a lot of people call the story bad.

For me, it's Aerith!

Bruh, they canonized Cloti a while back.

Cloud and Tifa banged under the Highwind and they're living together and raising children

Plus Aerith is dead so Cloti has no competition anyway

I think people have given some reasons here in this very thread. A lot of it to me has to do with regressive characterization or just lack there of from the old cast. Cloud is now an emofag and weak, Tifa is now sad and weak, rest of the cast only shows up to fight Bahamut. Also too much time is focused on the kids. FFVII pretty much tied up everything pretty neatly, the meteor was stoppedy by holy and Jenova/Sephiroth was destroyed, so there wasn't really anywhere to take the story without introducing something very contrived, which is exactly what the Jenova aids is.

user, I'm sorry to tell you this but Tifa won

Another example here of the canon

>Plus Aerith is dead so Cloti has no competition anyway
She's alive in the remake though and Cloud clearly falls her in it. I wonder where they're going to take everything in the next part.

>Cloud and Tifa banged under the Highwind
Only if you have enough affinity points.

>they're living together and raising children
But we still don't know if they're together which is why the fanwars go on. Neither ship has been given canon status which is what people are waiting for with the remake, but as I said, I doubt it'll happen.
