It's funny because Cloud makes a promise to protect Tifa whenever she is in trouble and then agrees to be Aerith's bodyguard (which was only for one date btw) but he consistently only seems to honor one of those agreements lol.
I always thought this was an optional scene dependent on your date.
Bc it happened right after the Ch.8 date.
But no lol.
A Tifa playthrough would have you date her just to leave her on her own right after, while you hug/shield a different girl 😂😂
Celes wearing a white dress and Locke being awestruck by her beauty before she sings in the Opera. Similarly an awestruck Cloud watches Aerith sing in a white dress in the Loveless play at the Gold Saucer. Just canon couple things.
I love this scene so much because it really humanizes Aerith. There is nothing wrong with feeling jealousy or anger. It is how you deal with those emotions that matter. ⏭️
In OG Aerith is the closest to Cloud, while in Remake when he gets up in the sewers his body automatically faces her. They give you a choice, but definitely nudge you in Aerith’s direction. 🥰
#Clerith
Even though I've been a fan of ff7 since OG. I never really got involved with the fandom until remake came out. I always knew CA was less popular but I didn't realize the extent CTs went to bully people who have a different preference. It's honestly so infuriating.
The kiss was optionsl, and the devs admit it's fanservice. It's not a win. There is still one more game left. It totally ruins any romantic tension (will they/won't they) between CT and if anything romantic happens between CT under the HW it just cheapens it in my opinion.

@Novial_Gold
I think they are feeling more insecure lately. They’re off the way attacks lately, gaslights, etc….then you see posts like this 🤭
Neutral ff7 fans saying the romance is the least interesting part of the story... yeah you would say that if you think C/T is canon because that shit is boring.
"shippers don't care about lore" excuse you, shippers will dig into the most obscure part of the lore, read the lore in the original language and try to understand all the nuances, all for CRUMBS
you know nothing of the tenacity of a shipper
Everybody talking about Aerith saving herself but the romantic in me still wants Cloud to save her. 😅 I think that's important to his arc. But after he saves her there should be an epic battle between her and Sephiroth though.
Cloud hunting down Sephiroth for killing Aerith in WoFF while Zack asks girls out on dates... and people will still say Zack is going to be the one to save Aerith 😒.

Not just partner and children but they are also expected to take care of aging parents. My MIL has taken care of her mother and father while her brother moved away and rarely ever visits. She resents him so much and I don't blame her.
This is the ff7 fandom for you. Zack gets called a loyal boyfriend for flirting with multiple girls around the same time he is "dating" Aerith and Aerith gets called a whore for liking one guy 5 years before meeting Cloud and daring to move on.
In FFVII, Zack was described by Aerith as "a ladies' man", and he enjoys being around women. Zack himself, while fleeing the Shinra army after the Nibelheim incident, told Cloud that he had several girlfriends who could hide him in Midgar (OG JP Version). (CCCG pg 282, 2008) 1/2
This is so devastating. Life is so cruel and unfair. I hope we could give you comfort and joy in your last days
@mudiscorp5227
and if I am so lucky to be here for part 3 I will be thinking of you.
@Mr_W3dn3sday
The way they zoom in on Cloud and Aerith's faces when they get so close and the way we can see his expression and it's not hidden by his hair and how it's so well lit that we don't need to brighten the image to see what's going on lol
"Neutral" fans who say they ship Cloud with therapy piss me off because would you tell people IRL with mental illness that they don't deserve love and to be in a relationship because they are too fucked up. The right person who understands can absolutely help you.
Tifa when going to Don Corneo: don't worry you've seen how much ass I can kick
Cloud: she's right she's a big girl and can take care of herself
Aerith when kidnapped by Shinra: don't worry it's like a second home I'll be fine
Cloud: I'm coming to get you anyway
Just another example of how ff7 fandom is misogynistic. Romance as a genre is usually something associated with women so of course they call us stupid and simple minded for caring about the romance in a story as if human relationships aren't complex.
And I can't help but be mad at the devs for continuing this LTD bullshit when it has created so much toxicity and real life people are getting hurt over this shit.I usually love stories where there can multiple different interpretations because of the discussions that can be had
I'm married with a toddler and another one on the way...I don't regret it at all but I didn't realize how good life was when I was single. Life is so stressful now. So many women are taught their lives don't begin until after they are married and it's such a lie.
I love CA's relationship and want to see a happy ending for them but now more than ever I just want CAs as a community to have something to celebrate after all this shit.
I don't get these streamers/youtubers who supposedly love ff7 but are so hateful to Aerith. I was watching a guy playing a modded og ff7 with voice acting and immediately told Aerith to shut up when she talked. Like wtf...grow up
i wish i could enjoy max dood like everyone else but him being super weird and misogynistic about aerith multiple times just makes me bitter and i hate that he’s so popular lol
@GamingStatues
The fact the only thing Tifa has in common with Rinoa and Garnet is her hair color is hilarious. And you demote Aerith to a side character when her dynamic with Cloud is so similar to Squall/Rinoa. Cloud is Aerith's bodyguard. Squall is Rinoa's Knight.
#ThankYouFFVIIDevs
for the game that made me a gamer and showed me that games are art. The story, characters, and its themes have resonated with me even more as I've grown older.

1)She won't tell you this, but according to all the canons it was written that she loved Cloud more, but we'll see, it's interesting. I wouldn 't be surprised if Cloud and Zack end up somehow saving Aerith together .
Before I would not have minded if there were multiple endings with CT and CA both being canon depending on choices but I really don't want that anymore. I want more than ever all the CAs that have been harassed and bullied throughout the years to have some kind of vindication.
Fun fact, Christmas in Japan is more like couple’s holiday like Valentine’s Day where couples go out on dates for Christmas Day. Suzuki got inspiration for Midnight Rendezvous from Christmastime which makes it all the more romantic.
#clerith
You’re clearly still shook over doki doki if you fear you’ll run into it, and are relieved you haven’t.
Glad you listen to Suzuki now though. What other thoughts has he given on this chapter again?
Since it's being brought up again, I'm weighing in again. Dear Cleriths: you do not get to dehumanize real people to justify your fictional ship. As an adopted child, ask me how real my family is. I try to stay out this side of the fandom, but this is going too far.
There are so many people in this fandom who pretend to know Japanese and try to twist it to mean something it's not. Looking forward to more of these videos. Clerith is even more obvious in Japanese 🥰.

Not all fanservice is bad. Fans have wanted a way for Aerith to be resurrected since the OG. Clerith reunion has been hinted at for years across different games. Her living had the proper build up so it's not like it's something that comes out of no where.
When A asks if T is C’s girlfriend and he says “no” in English she says “but she’s someone special.” In Japanese she says “ムキになっていいる” which is very similar to what she says in OG, meaning she is just pointing out he’s getting upset by the question.
Aerith actually very emotionally intelligent because she can identify the emotions she is feeling and communicate it to others. Sure doesn't want to take it out on Cloud so tells him she needs space. ⏭️
Also don't try to say it's because Tifa is the better fighter and Cloud respects her more. Both women tell Cloud they can handle themselves and he clearly respects them both and trusts their abilities in battle.
Cleriths don't need to make alts to make CTs look bad. How many memes of Aerith dying have they spammed and on official FF7 pages no less? You think Nojima doesn't see that shit? Also I thought he tweeted that before the troll account even started harassing him.
@AerithCloud3
Only a girl with no self esteem stays in a relationship like that lol. No doubt T loves him but I wish she would know her self worth. I’m tired of them glamorizing this situation where the woman is so loyal while the man puts no effort in the relationship.
Wow this is such a good point. The water tower that CT made their promise on was burnt to the ground. Reminds me of when Tifa says in her resolution that the flower he gave her is dead and buried.
@StrifeNana
@IrekawariF
pressed as all hell in the symbolism of CA going up the newly built water tower whilst CT didn’t, and especially bcus they both considered their pasts up there. almost like the game is telling us something.
I'm feeling better now. I had delicious sushi and cake for my birthday. I don't care what my body looks like. It hasn't been even a week and I have almost no pain after having a c section and can walk and bend over just fine. I have to love my body just for that.
Mandy Moore's character saying don't fall in love with me because she's going to die just like Aerith says not to fall in love with her because she will die. Now this. How many love tropes do they need to have for people to understand??
Cleriths never say Barret isn't Marlene's father... only CTs think a heterosexual couple raising children is a real family. Sorry I guess that mean single parent households aren't considered real families to them.
@Moon_x_Cat
@itskurohyn
They are so mad that people who have no prior knowledge about FF7 and no bias can see clear as day that Aerith and Cloud are made for each other.
@Clear_Liqueur
It really makes me sad. Her role was so diminished in my opinion in favor of "equal screen time" but the whole game was leading up to her fate in the forgotten capital so why shouldn't she have more focus? Makes me apprehensive about the 3rd game.
@theoceanblooms
I think that is part of it. Clerith is also just more romantic than CT and romance as a genre is shit on because women like it. They think they are smarter than the Clerith shippers for seeing ff7 as dark and edgy while Cleriths live in some disney fantasy land.
