FF Advent Children Zack

[HolyPhoenix]

I know people have seen Advent Children. I was wondering if anyone has bought it from Japan yet? If so did you get 2 dvd's one that says AVO on the second one?

Well if you have, have you seen the little movie about Zack. It seems that he is much stronger than Cloud. It also seems that Cloud got some of his moves from Zack.

Anyways if you have then what do you think about this little anime? I though it was pretty cool how Zack put the buster sword in front of cloud in a way that the Shinra Soldiers couldn't get to him. Then he left and beat other people up and came back and finished off those soldiers.

This also shows what really happened to Spehiroth in Nibelhem for those who are confused after beating the game.

You mean the Last Crisis OVA?

IMHO, it's typical crap. It reveals nothing new and actually ****s stuff up that was earlier established in the FF7 game.

Re: FF Advent Children Zack

except when you like Zack, but yeah I guess you can say it does that. I never understood that part in the game though. I never knew if it was Zack or Cloud that killed Sephiroth in Nibelhem. Then I figure out it was neither (i guess I should have known since he was still alive), but Zack fights first then gets knocked back then Cloud stabs him but he knocks Cloud around then grabs something with part of Jenova and jumps. Wow, that doesn't follow the story too much. Oh well it was still kinda cool seeing what Vincent looked like while he was a turk.

Re: FF Advent Children Zack

Huh? Who?? That couldn't have been Vincent. Vincent was under that mansion for how many years?

Re: FF Advent Children Zack

Dude, it was vincent. I am pretty sure. Because his chick was there too. In case you didn't notice he sided with her on what to do. Then they went into the Helicopter and shot zack with a sniper Rifle.

I guess wait for an english version and find out if it was really him.

Re: FF Advent Children Zack

I'd watch it again but the 4Kids rock soundtrack might kill me.

You get the OVA of FFVII in some 300$ package that comes with a bunch of neato ****.

Re: FF Advent Children Zack

that wasnt vincent who shot Zack with the sniper rifle. the snipers werent in a helicopter either (sniping from a moving vehicle is impossible, and you can see that the sniper had a steady shot). besides, they mention how the "turks told them to wait", so the snipers are not turks.

as for the other turks, it's unlikely any of them are vincent (few are ever referred to by name) as magus said, vincent was in that basement for years. not to mention he sure as hell didnt get all those experiments done on him in the matter of days it took for cloud to meet up with tifa in midgar after the shooting.

now, prior to cloud and zack being taken away to the basement laboratory, sure. it's possible vincent could have made an appearance then, but any turk that appears after cloud and zack make their escape from there is automatically disqualified, because the escape happened just a few days before cloud got to midgar.

and there will be no english version of Last Order, square isnt including it in any US release. it's fansub or nothing.

Re: FF Advent Children Zack

Good.

Re: FF Advent Children Zack

Except for the fact that Vincent was a turk before. It said so in the game. I still think it was vincent. And I am not the only one.

Also I think I can watch it with English Subtitles. They arn't very good but they might help explain a little bit.

I get that the turks were not the snipers. That makes sense especially since the anime looked like it was jumping around into different times.

I will try to look for an answere when I get a chance.

Re: FF Advent Children Zack

Except for the fact that Vincent was a turk before.

I never disputed that. all I said was that the timeline makes it impossible for him to be in any of the segments that took place after cloud and zack were taken to the basement lab. the same scenes as last order depicts are shown in the game itself, and the game reveals that RIGHT AFTER the shooting, tifa finds cloud at the train station, and then he starts work for avalanche.

and vincent himself tells you he had been in that basement for years, so that completely removes him from most of the OVA. any turk that appears after Hojo captures cloud and zack cannot be vincent because of that.

Upon further investigation....

If vincent was in Last Order, he never said a word. look at the cast list:

Of course, some might say "he's one of the "turks" listings" nope. All the voice actors in advent children also carried their roles over to Last Order, and Vincent's voice actor, Shougo Suzuki, didnt do a single voice in it.

of course, every turk we see that has a design that would allow them to be vincent says at least one word in Last Order. so...

Vincent was not in Last Order.

Re: FF Advent Children Zack

Seriously, how ****ing terrible is that soundtrack?

[Red Dragon]

Re: FF Advent Children Zack

Anyone know when it is coming to the USA? I cant understand japanese (woah-is-me).

Re: FF Advent Children Zack

Ok you win.

Yeah the soundtrack does suck. They could have done better with the music. The main thing to me though was the fighting though. That seemed pretty good.
