See, it's scenes like this (along with the hand touch) that makes me confused why some people think rebirth killed Zerith, when the setup for these two is crazy! If the devs truly wanted to end this ship, there wouldn't be moments showing they're still very much connected 🤷🏻♀️
Even CAs must know there's no way SE will omit the highwind scene, right? So what's the cope there? Hope Cloud & Tifa will spend the night under the stars with ZERO romantic undertone?! umm Have they forgotten what it's like every time the game puts these two alone together? 😂
‼️ This is a PSA that introverts DO NOT need an extrovert to bring them "out of their shell", they will do it on their OWN term, in their OWN time. The biggest misconception ppl have about introverts is thinking they *want* to be extroverts. We. Do. Not. ✋️
I won't address how wrong it is to say that CA understand each other more than
#cloti
here, but I will say this.
Kind reminder to CAs and similar thinkers:
-Introverts do not need saving by extroverts
-We don't all communicate the same way
-We can thrive with fellow introvers
Just recently, cleriffs were tryna push the post-gondola ride walk speed as some kind of romance indicator. Well, here we have the scene where it was actually applied 🤭
👇 Typical cleriff behavior 🙄
"It's just an edit." "I wasn't confirming anything."
Well, you sure ain't correcting the fanbase when they're being misled under false pretences either 🤡 You're only clowning your own kind in the end.
Not only does the board NOT spin, but this was also pre-recorded 😭
Imma need y'all to put on your thinking hats and realise that no, SE wasn't waiting to see where the guy threw the dart on the day to know which clip to play 💀
Cleriths fixated on Nojima saying the 'affinity system' should be seen as a unique game feature, separate from the main storyline. While ignoring the fact both him and Toriyama admit they KNOW which is the people's ship 👁👄👁
How is there an entire discourse on whether Cloud leaned in or not?!! 🤯 Anyone with a hint of media literacy can tell the scene is framed as the interrupted ‘almost kiss’ trope. Not a single streamer came to the conclusion that it wasn’t the case.
@vandalyre
Do you honestly believe all the writers & devs sat in their meetings and decided that the first ever kiss in 27yrs, a major moment in the franchise history would be because of an annoyed & jealous Cloud thinking of another woman? 🤦🏻♀️
Why do CAs always eat up misleading translations from the SAME acc every time? lmao You'd think they're smart enough now to double check. The fact that acc has so many fluent Japanese speakers blocked is just hilarious 😂
It's honestly baffling the way CAs see ch.14 as "Cloud chose Aerith in the end" when we're nowhere near the end?! 🤯 The writers could have made that scene a grand CA love confession with Aerith being 100% sure of her feelings and Cloud reciprocating, but they didn't 🤷🏻♀️
As someone who was in the fandom during the 00's and watched AC when it first came out, some of the takes going around are truly astounding 🤯 How is it that me and a bunch of kids understood the actual theme at the time, and y'all grown adults still don't?!
It's funny how the only time CAs become og purists is when they cling to the cloti childhood scene and it's inaccurate 1997 translation lol. Every other time, it's "Things are different!" "This isn't the og!".
Lmao They wanna bring up the jp VA?! The biggest cloti in the cast? The man known for sounding entirely different when speaking to Tifa that theres an whole viral compilation of him just saying her name?! 🤣
Damn they don’t like Tifa or Cody now 😭 lol in my opinion I thought he was perfect but I guess not everyone felt the same🥴 but to each his own this just the first time I’ve seen people not like Cody as cloud lol 😫
CT isn't finally canon because of this, it always has been. The official channel and people endorsed by SE simply help to reinforce that further. I'd gladly take this over McD and kpop.
I don't give a fuck about what you ship but acting like tifas feelings are one sided when you know damn well if she confesses it's over for your ship!! keep it cute
@aitaikimochi
There were certain lines during the flashback where Sakurai sounded EXACTLY like Suzuken (Zack) that I couldn't tell if he was doing an impersonation or if they had mixed in Suzuken's voice 😅
Important difference between the CT and the AC date.
At the end of the ride, CT act distant, he walks in front of her, she stays behind.
With A, he helps her down, walks ahead a few steps but almost immediately A catches up with him and they walk side by side.
Message is clear
I wouldn't celebrate the "Cloti kiss" if I were a Cloti. Why? In FF games, protagonists involved in romantic relationships always have intimate scenes portrayed through stunning cutscenes, and it's always a part of the storyline. (1/2)
For 3+ yrs CA shippers tried to manifest the gondola kiss, but guess who got it 🤭 Now they're tryna manifest the Tiduna kiss...well guess who has an upcoming lifestream scene together 👀
Last week cleriths mad at cloti fanart, this week it's mods. How about just make your own content instead of policing what is or isn't 'clerith coded'.
@ShinraArch
They've said from day one that they're sticking with the og story, so I don't know why people thought such a key plot point from the original would be altered. It was such an obvious 'will she/won't she' marketing ploy you can see it from a mile away 😭
Big CA acc complaining Sena are biased Tifa fanboys forget they're also the ones who fed them "our spot". How come they never wanna bring that one up? 🤡
ToTP has been out for 3 yrs, and ppl still pushing the "TiFA bULlIeD cLoUD" narrative. No wonder the author keeps telling y'all to read the damn thing 😩
Have made this point many times to those harping on about the Tifa date being 'non-existent' to them. At the end of the day, the kiss is seen around the world. Why act like SE didn't know who the popular date was going to be or which moment is going to be talked about for years.
The main culprit of this of course comes down to the kiss between Cloud and Tifa at the Gold Saucer, this being called OOC for Cloud's character or purely fanservice and nothing more or just a 'what if' scenario and so on.
The problem is.. why would the developers do this? If
@clotiOTP
Cloud doesn't want to *just* be Tifa's friend, he's been wanting to be her 'special someone' since childhood. So it's hard for him to admit she's just a 'friend' 🤭 Basically, the boy doesn't want to friendzone himself 😂
@HayashiNagisa
I was honestly confused why the CAs were cheering when all Nojima said was to treat the "好感度システム' as a unique game feature?! and to distance it from the main story. It's clear from the interview that both dev wanted the kiss scene, but had to consider player choice. 🤷🏻♀️
When are people going to learn that introverts doesn't mean quiet or closed off 🤦🏻♀️ If they appear that way to *you* it's because they don't care for you. They open up to ppl they WANT to open to, talk to those they WANT to talk to. Most introverts I know can't stand extroverts 😭
Going after artists unprovoked when all they're doing is drawing what they enjoy and telling them to fvck themselves is such degenerate behavior 🤮 lowest of the lows.
hey muddy carp, why not commission an artist from your side instead of whining on their qrts for drawing a zelink as your NOTP? 🙄🙄 or does hating on CT matter to you more than just simply enjoying your ship?
If in the end it turns out that this FF7 trilogy is not a continuation (I highly doubt it) I want to remember that the last of the compilation are these AC credits, where Cloud with Aerith's hair ribbon travels to a field of flowers under the look of her..

@coolty88027
@TifaTheMonk
Aren't these the ppl who love 'translating' Toriyama's bashfulness at watching the cloti kiss to "he is so ashamed of his work" lol 🤣 can't wait to see what they cook up this time.
@The_Loony_Boy
Can you imagine doing all this to have Zack in the story and NOT have him and Aerith reunite?! I'm not even talking about Zerith shipping here, it'd simply be massive oversight if it doesn't happen.
@JediJenna
It's an honest, unadulterated example of how one would react knowing the other side got a kiss you didn't. At least now he knows ff7 isn't a harem game lol
Lets be honest, we all know why cleriths are mad at the affinity system lol Now they want it gone for part 3, well don't ask for things you'll regret coz that would mean there's only one way for the Highwind scene to canonically play out 🤭
@JosemariBa53012
@clotiseph
It was a parody video made by an outside content creator. I dunno why y'all keep saying it mocks their date when their date is the one being featured (like always). All while Aerith is brought up in the context of a side chick gag, if anything it's mocking her. 🤷🏻♀️
“She’s a fanservice character and I hate fanservice” all while asking devs for the ultimate fanservice of all: undoing a character death for the sake of shipping.
@clotiseph
Both are also open clotis, and it comes through in their performances. The jpn fanbase is constantly pointing out how much softer C is with T vocal wise 🤭 If the devs didn't want their personal bias to show, they would've told them otherwise 🤷🏻♀️
@LaniusVel
@KenMastersUSA
They can't be serious 🤦🏻♀️ The number of times we point out actual sources, novels, ultimania, interviews, etc. only for CAs to then jump to ANOTHER wrong translation, merch item, or why nptk is STILL about Cloud 🤡
This account is quickly rising to the top of the clueless CA ranks. First they think SE teased that Aer will live to be happy w/Cloud and they will make good on that since so many JP fans want it (what?). Then they quoted a famous CT line to try and use it for their ship. Now⬇️
@yokikotokiku3
Here's the acc 'translating' the op's own OPINION all while making it seem like it's from the ultimania to their minions. Typical cleriff behavior 🙄
I'm reminded of when Cloud's mocap specifically pointed out how Cloud primarily addresses the group as "Tifa-tachi." 🤭 The man has the right priority 😌
@Wally443
You know deep down they're scared sh!tless about part 3 and no longer trust the devs ever since nptk 🤣 All they can do is scream about 'keep believing!!' on the daily lolol
I say *some people*, but we all know which group is pushing the 'zerith is dead, A has moved on' agenda 😭 like.....are y'all not seeing the same scenes? The game is constantly reminding you that zerith exists.
Seriously, how are they gonna spin the highwind?! It's one of the most anticipated moments by the fanbase (not just shippers), and the devs 100% know the hype for it. Even the LA version is of them waking up cuddling. It's non-optional.
@SekiharaTae
I have friends who played the og, watched AC back in the day and have zero interest in shipping. When I tell them there are ppl who ship CA, they're absolutely shocked 💀 It's good to get perspective outside of the shipping bubble, coz it's pretty darn obvious what's canon.
