We've all seen the latest fantasy cutscene after someone has played Final Fantasy 7, Advent Children, with the ultimate scene being the long and emotional ending scene between Cloud and Sephiroth. We also know, that this is where the movie, and the song "safe and sound" will take place. . . . But what exactly is the song we're talking about? The song was not released in the game. It was released for the Advent Children DVD. In this song, there is a link between an anime and a game.
The anime is the original Final Fantasy 7 anime that has been remade for the Final Fantasy 7 remake.
In the original Final Fantasy 7 anime, Sephiroth was voiced by Kousuke Toriumi. But in the remake Sephiroth is voiced by Tetsuya Kakihara, who's voice can be heard in the song, safe and sound.
So, who's the song about? Well, the original FF7 anime takes place during the Sephiroth/Cloud confrontation. In the movie, Cloud and Sephiroth find themselves separated by an avalanche. As Cloud searches for his friend, Sephiroth gets close to making Cloud his sacrifice. The Sephiroth that the Cloud encounters is the one seen in Advent Children, where he became an antagonist. And the final scene of the movie, where Cloud and Sephiroth meet, happens in the "safe and sound" song. So, in short, the song talks about Sephiroth's ultimate goal of making Cloud into his sacrifice.
In the Advent Children DVD, there are also two other songs. One is the song that plays during the Sephiroth and Cloud encounter, the safe and sound, which Kyousuke Himuro performed. It takes place after the Sephiroth/Cloud scene. And the other is "Return to Junon", which was sung by Jun Maeda. Jun Maeda was the composer for both Final Fantasy 7 and Advent Children. Both of the songs take place in the same scene, but at different points.
So, why is it important? Well, it's a good anime scene, and it gives us an idea of how big Sephiroth's ass is. Sephiroth looks totally different in the remake, with darker skin and a different hairstyle, and he looks a lot bigger. A different voice actor also makes him sound a lot larger, and that's because he's been stretched out, added muscles, and made bigger
