  • Im 19 years old, this games been out for like 13+ years, and i still get emotional watching Aeries fall down the lake =[

  • The Jenova LIFE battle was easy due to me being pissed about this scene.

    - Mage

  • Comment removed

  • damn ppl take video games to damn serious now a days. its just a game calm the fuck down.

  • @lakersboy132 People are seen crying, laughing and cursing during movies all the time.THIS is the same concept.

  • The description should read "Part 62 of ff7 - one of the most epic and touching scenes in any game period"

  • fucking Sephiroth.... :,( DIE BASTARD DIE!!!NOBODY KILLS 1 OF MY FAVORITE CHARACTERS AND GETS AWAY WITH IT!:,((

  • Truly, this is deeply moving. Now imagine how the party would feel (I, myself, would be like this): your "loved one" being killed in front of you, with a music theme that is bound to a bit of sadness and the psychological pressure upon you by having witnessed that and the sadistic smile of your arch-nightmare. I would never win this fight, especially against Jenova, would be impossible to even have a will to raise my sword.

  • Please insert Disc 2

  • This is so titanic

  • very sad. but don't worry. Zack is waiting for Aeris in the Lifestream.

  • Is Aeris Dying really nobody else's favorite art of the game?

  • I killed Jenova with ease just from being pissed at Sephiroth getting away right here...

    I love you Aeris...R.I.P.

  • Sephiroth, you rat-bastard!

  • Sephiroth.... im coming for you..

  • Use a pheonix down

  • This was the moment when the ground that made up the floor and earth of the RPG world shook... I remember the first time I saw this, I just sat there in utter disbelief of it... And even now, more than a decade later, it STILL plucks at my heart-strings near to the point of tears.

  • man it sucks that she died

  • The sadest scene in any game, ever.

  • @DeluxeWarPlaya Actually, there is one other that equals it, but there is none that tops it on the heartbreak-to-tears scale. The other one being when Shepard betrays Ghost and Roach in Modern Warfare 2.

  • @hopecandecieve Agree

  • music kinda made me lose the will to fight this boss

  • i like fighting jenova......... it always looks weird

  • i tough you were going to use vincent against her =d

  • I remember this was the very first thing I ever saw of final fantasy, and the one thing I never forgot.... I mean I always wanted cloud with Tifa but Aeris dying was just terrible. Kafka my have been the evilest villain, but he'll never be as hated as Sephiroth....

  • nooo aeris....!

  • I was sad when Aerith died...BUT ON THE PLUS SIDE, SHE'S WITH ZACK NAO! =)

  • you bastard -.-

  • this is so sad this part :(

  • If I were Cloud, I would find Sephiroth and kill him the way mario did that to peach on powerstar and just doing the overkill

  • SEPHIROTH I WILL KILL YOU!!!!!!

  • Poor Aerith. One of the saddest moments in video game history.

  • And possibly the most remembered.

  • That's true.

  • @ColonelJadeCurtiss a moment that define a generation.

  • @sugarbrownrabbit So darn true.

  • @sugarbrownrabbit Dude, I honestly couldnt have ever worded it better myself, and I hold a Masters in Journalism and English Literature!! lol

  • I always start to cry when the White Materia hits the floor and Aerith's theme starts playing. Just so sad.

  • I remember hating myself for this part because i invested so much in the aeris character emotionally. Just like ff3 with Celes character. However this one just took it to another level. I dont consider this ff the best one, but it sure was worth the tears and sleep sacrifice i made.

  • Why didn't you use a Pheonix Down on her Cloud?.......

    I found it wierd how she smiles after he stabs her. I guess maybe shes happy now that she'll be able to stop meteor, now that shes one with the planet,

  • she wasnt smiling she looked like that because she went into shock from being impailed.

  • I remember this scene from when my oldest brother played it. I had no idea what was happening to her. But now that I know now, it hurts my feelings. D':

  • @wingsofhope2 true but when i first played this years ago i didn't know zack! i think i actually cried.

  • Sephy u asshole!!!! Poor Aeris. Kill him cloud!!!

  • @daniel1982 Your 27 Kid Im 29 ;)

  • I was so mad when Aerith died she was one of my best party members too I would have prefered Yuffie to die atleast she would not steal my Materia again. LOL

  • yup. but thats life and its got its sad moments.

  • I always cry at this part...I'm gonna miss you Aerith "Takes his hat off for the greatest Final Fantasy moment ever created..."

  • i love this game and this makes me tear up

  • yeah I tear up at this part and at the part where the Cait Sith #1 dies...then the second one comes and I feel like a dumbass...haha...

  • always makes me cry =(

  • same

  • After 61 parts of nothing, I FINALLY GOT TO IT!

    I feel so fufilled.

    Just the plot twist and my FF7 craze shall be complete.

  • oh, she dies BEFORE even reaching the end

  • damn that boss almost wiped me out but i kicked its ass with Odin

  • and it would be hilarious if instead of her dieing she was unconsious..lol thne after cloud puts her in the water she wakes up after drowning in....but that would also suck...........but damn it all man...of all people why did she have to die........?

  • yeah, she would still live with a FUCK SWORD THROUGH HER

  • Damn it.......now who am i suppose to replace areis with....tifa!...damn it all man...she dies right after i freaking get great gospel in the temple of the ancients.right befor fighting the 2 bosses...... damn it T.T.

  • I don't get it.

    I've known Aeris was gonna die even BEFORE I started watching these walkthroughs. I mean, EVERYONE knows she dies...

    ...So why am I about to cry?

    DAMMIT SEPHIROTH YOU S.O.B!!!!!

  • sepheroth you fuckin mother fucker

  • wow...the death scene is ruined by the script afterwards.......but still one of the best moments in the series. I do think Celes's suicide attempt in VI tops this though.

  • Both the Celes suicide attempt and Aeris death scenes are unparalled. I wouldn't place one above the other. Though the fact that they play her theme as you engage Jenova is something that i believe is unmatched in any FF battle. Even whilst facing Jenova, the sorrow is still evident, and the music just reinforces that further.

  • I totally agree, this part gave me goosebumps it was so sad.

  • T_T no Phoenix Down?

  • this boss is so easy all u need is 1 water ring then all of her attacks heal the player wait until she runs out of mp then she cant do anything and then just attack her

  • hmmm i cant seem to kill the boss as soon as the battle starts it uses aqualung killing tifa and putting cloud and barrett at about 300-400hp and then i get off 1 potion and the boss uses it again and starts spamming attacks making me die

  • never mind, changed to Cloud/Cid/Yuffie and did a lil lvling and got the boss :)

  • lol i wanna know why didnt cloud use a phoenix down? XD

  • It was even sadder when her theme started playing. D:

    I still hate it when she dies. even though I've seen it happen more times than I can count.

    then you're given a boss battle right after. gosh give the player time to grieve!

  • truly epic

  • Damn NOOOOOOOOOOOOO TILL THIS DAY IT'S STILL ... WTF

  • nooooo.....

    ='(

    Even after 10 years playing FFVII I can't accept her death...

  • I think she might be dead... I don't know though, I'm not a doctor.

  • the most awesome game ever without question...

  • best fucking game!

  • What makes me start crying is when Aeris's theme tune starts playing.

  • check my video response. she ain't dead........well sort of

  • she is dead....

    look at 0:22 bäm there she goes, cheap slut

  • wow. right on the video page too.

  • didn't actually play the game, but wishing i had. But when Aeris died, i was all like "OMGWTF BBQWTF, NOOO WTFBBQBBQ RARARARAWR!!!!!"

  • At least Zack and her are finally together again, after five years.

    But it´s too sad, those two and cloud were the best characters of the game, why did the have to die?

  • I think that was the most saddest moment on the game but still a good FMV sequence. i heard there's way of saving her but not found out how yet

  • this reminds me of Gandalfs death in lord of the rings and obi wans death in star wars..... the heros were all shocked and sad that one of thier firends is gone...

  • The single most shocking scene in all RPG games ever!!!!. Still can remember playing this and beign absolutly shocked.

  • u can bring her back 2 life like u can bring blank back in ff9

  • Whenever things like this happened in the game (during cutscenes), I always wondered why people couldn't just cast life3 or something on the person. lmao

  • Lmao i never thought of that! Just throw a pheonix down on her.

  • Ah memories. My roomies in college had me play this game, and a few of my my friends there KNEW about this part and used to whisper about it to keep it a secret from me. Unfortunately, when I got to the part where Aeris dies, my roommate came in where my friend and i were playing and made a joke about it, so... there went the moment! XD

  • Dammit sephy! I still love you, but DAMN YOU!!!!!!!!

  • I never felt anything on this scene...at all, because Aeris wasn't developed enough for me to care about her.Seriously, it was so dramatic yet they all barely knew her! it's like the story on Final Fantasy IV where they just keep adding characters and killing them and that's it (I know it's not exactly like that here), it's like they just met and they already formed this relationship (friends, love etc) out of nowhere. This is why I like FFVI and FFVIII more than VII, it's still a great game tho

  • i cried every time i saw this.

  • HER NAME IS AERITH NOT AERIS GOSH

  • GOSH for those who actually played the game when it came out it was AERIS due to the bad translation

  • this is the most famous scene

    and very memorable....

    :'(

  • yuffie hugged cloud

  • I have to be honest; I wasn't anywhere approaching tears when this happened on my first FFVII experience but I was shocked and seriously impressed with the boldness of it and just a little hacked off as I'd been levelling Aeris up. At the end though, Sephiroth got KOTR up his ass in payback! Without doubt, my favourite game of all time and the best FF.

  • NOT the best. The best one has to be ff9.

  • the most sad moment in the game

    and one of the most remarkable scenes in the game world

  • 0:23...for the breifest of moments...every FF fan in the known world stared in awe at the tragedy that had just occured...and then those millions of fans started to cry..."Aeris!!! Why!?!?1?!".....

  • NOOOOO AERIS!!!

    Sephiroth...must...DIE!!!!!

  • lawl

  • i cried when i first saw this, i was maybe 7 or 8

  • i cried every time i saw this.

  • that music is sad.

  • thats the aeris them...i think it just really fit the part :'(

  • sephiroth is jus gion on & on about the promised land isn't he jus like a test tube baby

  • probably the most dramatic deaths in ff history i almost cried when i saw this a few years ago

  • and most memrable poor aeris :'(

  • Yuffie stole materia again lol

  • Awesome part of the game ! The saddest part and the beginning of a new journey for Aerith. Her death was needed in the story even if it's very sad and heartbreaking ( for us *well, if you like her at least*, for Cloud and the others characters are quite upset ). I think that aside Cloud, Yuffie and Tifa goodbyes to Aerith are the most touching.

    Aerith is dead, but she's not completely gone (her will is very strong and she's a Ancient too). The main theme of this game is life after all.

  • I was about 5 or 6 when I first saw this happen, I watched my uncle play. Aerith was my favorite, and when you're that little, you get a bit attatched. I was sooooo sad.

    I don't know if it's just me, but I always had Tifa and Barrett in my party at this time...just seemed appropriate to me, since they knew her longest and stuff...

  • What weapon does Cloud have and were did you get it

  • The nailbat, you get it if you let the second hand knock you off the giant clock in Temple of the Ancients =D

  • Question: Aeris is shown sinking to the bottom of that apparently deep lake, but in the shot before that, Cloud is shown only up to his waist. How is Cloud staying afloat? (Tough to tread water since he's carrying a dead body)

  • his standing where his is not deep enough 2 drown

  • I think that he's standing right next to a steep drop-off

  • Yeah, I just got past that part today & I was wondering about that.

  • sephiroth should just bend over and get raped in his ass xD

  • Yeah leonpal14, Its true, You can revive Aerith. I've done that before, but it's a long process. I haven't done it in many years but I do recall doing that.

  • lol pheonix down all done

  • Where did you get Kjata?

  • He's in the forest between here and Bone Village =D

  • Thank you =)

  • When you first get in the sleeping forest you'll notice a red orb flying around, chase it and pick it up.

  • LMAO! Sorry but the controller flying part is funny. I hope you didn't break your TV though. I found out about this before on Wikipedia so I knew what was going to happen and I was pissed off. But yeah it is sad cause Aeris is cool!

  • this was sooooo sad but sum1 told me that u can revive aerith idk how though :/ and also i just found out that if you look closely at the names of the jenovas u can find out the first 2 make sense cuz one is rebirth or birth one of the two wich identifies that sum1 has just been born again which is sephiroth but u know what i mean and this 1 cuz u can revive her but jenova death is hard ill have to think about that oen 1000/1000 and faved

  • Saddest moment in FInalFantasy history

  • okay i just started playing this game like a week ago and when i finish the 1st disc i am afraid 2 admit that i was crying the whole time i heard others telling me about aerith's death but never actually saw how it happens. damn now im really pissed and im going 2 kill sephiroth!

    AERITH 4EVER

  • ~sobs~

    Why did Aeris have to die?!

    poor Cloud: Aeris is gone.

    Aeris will no longer talk, no longer laugh, cry or get angry.

    What about us, what are WE supposed to do?

    What about my pain?

    My fingers are tingling, my mouth is dry, my eyes are burning!

    And the song didn't help fight Jenova either, to caught up in the moment with to much emotions to fight properly, the one during her death: Aeris's Theme.

  • yeah,the EXACT same thing kept happening to me..R.I.P Aerith..D=

  • Theres a difference between DEAD and K.O - -' Simple as

  • As I posted in the previous video, when Sephiroth kills Aeris, why doesn't Cloud revive her with a Phoenix Down?

  • when i first saw it i was watching my dad play it lol and when she died i cried :(

  • Cloud was using a bat. lol

  • you know if you just gave her a phoenix down and a few potions i think she'll be alright

  • hahaha true that..... anyone see the graphics for this game nowadays?? sooo shitty.... but its still classic

  • but for its time, 1997, this was one of the best lookin games

  • no cuz shes dead not k.o

  • it was a joke

  • AERIS! :O.shocking

  • Hey 7503, what did you first think when you saw Aeris die?

  • Someone told me about it so i was expecting it to happen, i was annoyed because i liked her limit break though =D

  • Hey whats that Yuffie is wearing on her that give her positive HP?

  • A water ring =D

  • Sweet thanks for your help! =D

  • Hey when played this game i was only 8 and i was like WTF! =D

  • i played when was about 10,i was kinda sad she died.

  • me too, i played it when i was 8

  • I was never sad when she died becouse I never trained her!

    hahahahaha

  • me too

  • OMG Sephiroth !! You are son of bitch :(

  • Sob sob.. *sniff* no I'm not crying..

    I got something in my eyes..

  • i have senn that lodes of times and i still nerly cry and i am 17

  • LOL i still saved her and she isn't dead really,because i used her to fight the monster,LOL!!!

  • AERIS!!! She died =( so sad. I know that Steven Spielburg use to watch this scene and how sad it was (watch the Retrospective of Final Fantasy)

    If I were cloud then

    Cloud: YOU PAY FOR THIS SEPHIROTH!

  • seriously, i knew grown dudes that adimitted to wheep openly at THAT scene -_-

  • Aeris shouldn't have left the party! She is stupid if she lealves the party! >='(

  • no way theres no way to save her...everyone knows thats she gets killed by him, its jsut park of the story, and using a gameshark? wtf not possible.

  • is there anyway to save her??? i really dont want her to die i even got her final limit break someone plz reply

  • Nah sorry, you can only save her by cheating with a gameshark or something like that =D

  • just imagine this seen on the ff7 ps3 remake!

  • :(

    aeris :(

    why cloud....why couldnt you use a phoenix down on her....

  • The say reason you just couldn't just use a soft on Red's dad

  • cuz when you die on a regular battle they dont actaully die just go in to a state of uncounious( dont know if i spelled that right)

  • NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! *suddenly a sharp ring happens*

    muwahaha mother and i shall rule the planet like it was forseen by the ancients, and aeris will be part of the lifestream, more energy for me muwahaha! lol........nooooo poor aeris, im sad now, i knew it would happen because by the time i got my hands on this game (years ago) i think id seen the spoiler or heard about it.....dammnnnit noo!!! aeris *cries*

  • Everytime I see this part brings tears to my eyes...WHYY!

  • cuz it's sad

  • Wasn't question but...

    WE MISS YOU AERIS!
