Random thoughts on Last Order, written as I was watching it.
Last Order = The Awesomeness of Zack.
Pregame Cloud. A few days I think before Tifa finds him at the train station.
Tseng = Zeng ... = TEH BAD OMG!!!!11
The torching of Nibelheim is gorgeous here.
Zack, doing Matrix bullet dodges! Heee! Zack must be completely TEH AWESOME if he can still do all of this after five years in a tank.
"Sephiroth... Soldier... ShinRa... Mako Reactors... I HATE THEM ALL!" W00t for canon dialogue!
The picture! The famous Zack, Tifa, Sephiroth picture that pretty much broke Cloud's illusion! Squee.
How completely awesome to finally see Sephiroth's reaction to Cloud sneaking up behind him and kebobbing him on the Buster Sword.
Holy crap, Sephiroth didn't stab Cloud through the shoulder, he stabbed him through the chest. TWICE! and Cloud still lived! This is so much cooler than I thought it would be! GAH! Cloud pulls himself forward on the sword, gross! But so damned cool.
For those who didn't play FFVII, in the game it was nowhere near this intense, well, obviously, but not as drawn out or brutal either.
Oh, but hold up, that's wrong. This has Sephiroth jumping into the Lifestream. Cloud actually threw him into it in the game.
HOJO! THe real villain, Hojo, collecting his specemins!
Huh? Tseng = not so bad maybe?
WTF WTF?! They don't actually SHOW what happened? Oh, disappointment! What about the completely brutal murder of Zack and utter desecration of his body? What about Cloud dragging himself to Zack's body, taking Zack's sword, going beyond insane and convincing himself within a few seconds that Zack's life is his own?! The train station! WHAT ABOUT THAT STUFF?
Maybe they should just go ahead and animate the entire game, is all I'm saying.
