Best VGM 261 - Final Fantasy VII: CC - The Price of Freedom

greatest song evar

best song

but I still ask the question "Why does Sephiroth turn side?" Is it because of his mother's jenova cell history that made him realize he wasn't really human?

When he read the books at the Shin-Ra mansion, he believed that his mother, Jenova, was a Cetra. He believed that humans betrayed and destroyed the Cetra, and that he, as the last survivor of that race, was the only living creature that could inherit the entire planet.

He then wanted revenge against Shin-Ra because they created him in an experiment and used his "mother" as a guinea pig.

He thought humans were inferior, treacherous beings.

But he wasn't the last of his race. There was Aerith. !!!!!SPOILER!!!!! So then why did he kill Aerith?

When Sephiroth thought he was an Ancient (Thing that probably lasted less than a day, anyways), maybe he just didn't know about Aerith being an Ancient?

Ok, so ignore my previous message, I remember now. By the time of Final Fantasy VII, Sephiroth already knew that he was NOT an Ancient.

He knew what JENOVA was, he knew what he was.

His new objective was to absorb the Lifestream to become a god. Aerith was trying to stop him by summoning Holy, so good ol' Seph had her killed, thus removing his main obstacle.

ohhh. that makes sense.

cos the person that killed aerith wasnt sephiroth, it was .........

JENOVA.

And Jenova knew Aerith was doing.

Anyway Sephiroth was already dead before the game even begins. Despite appearing multiple times in the games, it is revealed that it was Jenova who was taking his shape.

Sephiroth's body was sealed in Northern Crater all along.

Its not really a spoiler anymore
Mostly everyone knows this.
