why is souyo sooooo fucking powerful i’m 32 and i shouldn’t care about anime teen angst but souyo has had me in its grip quite literally over half my life
i’ve been feeling pretty good about my life recently. been cooking a lot and working on my silks and buckling down on my japanese. it’s fun to accomplish things :)
FF7 Revelation Director Hamaguchi talked a bit more at the Square Enix Shanghai Q&A session on how Cloud views Sephiroth in the FF7 Remake series.
Hamaguchi: Even though he admires Sephiroth as a hero, Sephiroth was also the person responsible for destroying his family, so he does have strong resentment towards him. It's a very complicated feeling.
As to what exactly those feelings are, as much as I know you would like me to talk further about it, unfortunately I don't think I should say too much about it during this Q&A.
I guess I can put it this way [...] Do you remember what Aerith said to Cloud at the church towards the end of Rebirth? She says there are different meanings to the word 'like.' That's what we want to convey between [Cloud and Sephiroth]. I hope my answer makes sense?
ok guys. i think japan has finally done it. the flavor profile is almost the same it’s just not nearly as strong. if they doubled the powder it would be almost perfect
Hamaguchi answered a question at the FF7 Revelation Meet & Greet event in Shanghai regarding about why Cloud does not have a definitive romantic relationship and if that’s because they want fans to decide themselves.
Hamaguchi says rather than having fans decide, one of the joys of consuming entertainment is creating your own headcanons, which makes the work enjoyable. He said for FF7, he personally thinks that since every character is iconic and loved by so many people, rather than them defining something clearly, having the player think about their own feelings and compare them with their own experience makes them connect with the characters more.
However, he says in the case of Revelation, he hopes that everyone can look forward to seeing what happens in the game!
@3dsyaoi i went to a symposium a few years ago and one of the most interesting talks was about the straight (cis) male relationship with shota, unfortunately i don’t remember the book or paper it was based on…… if you happen to know please tell me!
i am utterly obsessed with this gorgeous, gorgeous commission i got of joska and edham from tumblr user hotwe. i get heart palpitations every time i look at it. if you do not read my book at least take the time to admire this art and scream with me.
AND! as a reminder,
