Ffvii The First Soldier - Blog Posts

I haven’t actually drawn in a while since im getting back into the swing of things with my new job but here’s something i did tonight :D

Ever Crisis and TFS are turning 1 this month 🥳🥳🥳

Happy 1st anniversary to FFVII: Ever Crisis! May it survive another year!

This is a redraw of art i did about 1 year ago come the 4th of this month. Original will be below the cut. The og was done purely off of screenshots of trailers and the 1 chibi we had at the time but now I get to do this with official art references lol

So what are your thoughts on where we’re at with The First Soldier story now o_o

Chapter five, the Halloween event, predictions for the future, etc.

There is so much to unpack with just those 2 lines from the Halloween event. At the same time I’m like “YES! Fanon confirmed canon!” But also sobbing in the corner because of the sheer amount of implications. It was such whiplash from the silly trick or treat goofs.

The event itself; besides for the backstory bomb and some spooky vibes is fiiine. There were some moments that made me laugh and i will not get over Glenn’s chibi getting sucked into the portal. I am always a sucker for spooky music and aesthetics.

The main story itself, I don’t think i have too much to say that’s new or shocking. I absolutely love young Sephiroth and i love how they are handling his story and characterization so far. I had a seething hate for Glenn but chapter 5 has warmed me up to him. I still have issues with him and how some kinda serious things were just glossed over as comedy but maybe it’ll come up later. I like Lucia and Matt.

Predictions ⬇️

My predictions on how the story is gonna go is that Sephiroth is gonna get a kill order for Rosen and the trio is gonna try to defend Rosen, getting Matt and Lucia killed and labeling Glenn a traitor for defying orders. It’s probably gonna be after bonding with the trio and maybe getting Masamune from probably Rosen and bonding some more then Shinra comes in to mess it all up. Glenn with then go back to seeing Sephiroth as an inhuman cyborg that only follows orders and we eventually get the opening scene that takes place during CC era.

Or, since Square loves their parallels between Sephiroth and Cloud, they may do something where Sephiroth tries to defy a kill order on Rosen after bonding with him and the trio so Shinra infantry or something is sent in Zack’s Last Stand style and kill Rosen, Lucia, and Matt but Glenn lives somehow. Maybe Deepgroud? Or maybe some hidden Rhadoran survivors? Only problem with that is how we get to Glenn trying to get revenge on Sephiroth later.

Idk, I’m open to anything Square throws at us as long as it makes sense lol

I also think that The First Soldier should’ve been a game like Crisis Core or Remake but thats something else entirely

Finished what is out of TFS. Spoilers ahead

My thoughts:

I can’t believe i called it that Glenn is beefing with a 14 year old. He seems to hate Sephiroth for no reason besides jealousy, called a child a cyborg, and said he would never accept Sephiroth cause “he never went through the same brutal training.”

BOY IS THERE A LOT TO UNPACK THERE. But first my Glenn hate.

I fucking hate Glenn. He is literally the encapsulation of everything i find irritating in a person. What made me really hate him is that he refuses to call Matt by his actual name and even after being repeatedly told to not, still does that. (Slay to Matt just not responding to “Professor” that one bit) Which just… really gets on my nerves for personal reasons. And Glenn has repeatedly showed that he is only doing this for the money. Which fair, but the only hint we get as to why is cause someone he i think is related to is in the hospital (i don’t remember exactly i was skimming) which is then immediately followed up immediately with Glenn is broke cause he gambles a lot. So i guess he’s a gambling addict and puts that before whoever he is supposedly doing this for in the hospital. And finally, this most likely 25-30 year old man is beefing with a 14 year old for no fucking reason besides jealousy and his own stupidity. Based on that last section before what’s out of TFS ends, he does not even think to consider “hey why is this kid here and in the army and really fuckin strong?” No, instead he immediately refuses Sephiroth’s help, calls him inhuman, and shuts down what Sephiroth has been through to get to where he is now. So… i think we can guess where Sephiroth questioning his humanity came from. Glenn better do something really really selfless and get his act together or he is probably gonna go down as one of my most hated characters.

Now a bit of positivity and stuff

Sephiroth is such a sweet kid so far. He’s a bit smug about his power but that’s fair. He’s really polite otherwise and just there to do what he was told to do. He seems like he wants to help them and ahg i hope Glenn stops treating him like shit. Little guy needs some positivity in his life.

I also really enjoy Matt and Lucia. Especially Lucia. Love how she just roasts Glenn at every opportunity. It’s great.

My silly from FFVII:The First Soldier

That game that shut down after like 5 seasons

I still miss it

Mainly because i miss my chocobo, Jugular
