I would like to make an artbook with this OC, I'd need a print on demand service that allows publishing suggestive artworks but I'll figure that out later. In the meantime, in which contexts would you like to see this character in?

Did you know? Bio means Resident, and Hazard means evil!

I shouldn't post while having a fever.

I really like working out while watching Hajime no Ippo and I've watched it more than 3 times already, and this part gets me every time, it's really hard to keep running with tears haha youtu.be/sALoQgdVVss?...

This anime also has one of the most beautiful sunset backgrounds I've ever seen.

Quick question for research purposes: of all the characters I've drawn, which one do you like seeing me draw the most? (It doesn't matter what kind of illustration it is!)

The mountain cabin YCH panel set is done! I wasn't planning on making another one so soon after the previous beach one, but the suggested theme was really inspiring and I had to make it right away.

Another train of thought from this (FF7 and FF6 spoilers). The constant use of Sephiroth in both cutscenes and battles gets really annoying because he keeps saying stuff in a "mysterious" way, but it gets very redundant really quick.

Small rant about FF7R thread, so OG7, Remake and Rebirth spoilers ahead I love the remake project but there's something in particular which I find that ruins the experience🧵

different but Kefka in FF6 makes multiple appearances and you even fight against him at some point and it's AMAZING because he starts being pretty weak and ridiculous and then you see him different actions that makes you think "whoa, this guy is nuts" and in the end, he's a god, and you actually see

How does he become that. It's entertaining, it's believable (in fantasy terms of course) and even poetic.

No need to battle against him. So now that we SEE him way too often, that little aspect that made him mysterious is completely gone and tiring, no matter how many "7 seconds" or whatever cryptic line he says, every time he appears I can't help but think: Yeah I get it, move on. All these appearances

Throughout the game doesn't build the character, I'd assume his constant presence serves the purpose to tell the audience that he's tormenting Cloud but just 3 instances in key points max. is enough to achieve that. I know this is not the case and the purpose of this antagonist is completely

Being completely honest, in the original, Sephiroth wasn't that complex of a character, the only reason there was some mystery around him is because we would HEAR about him most of the game from Cloud and not seeing him every 5 minutes. But that was enough to convey the idea that he is a threat,

So it's just a matter of time to see if those decisions will lead to something worth this repetition. I hope Vincent's line: "expectations often lead to disappointment" is not a message from the developers for us to temper our expectations for the final act because that would be lame, because they

Already made significant changes on character introductions and pacing, and they have mentioned that the ending of the story will lead to something different or more fleshed out, so I'm expecting something huge for the final boss and not fighting the same bosses again.

thing with Jenova, there are different Jenova fights in the original but the big one was supposed to be at the end of disc1 (the ending of Rebirth) but it takes away the impact because they added another big fight in Remake with Dreamweaver, the mechanics are different but the concept and character

Appearances are way too repetitive. Now how did they make Rebirth's final boss gauntlet different from Remake's? Well, by adding yet another boss form that appears at the end of OG 7, Bizarro Sephiroth... I think it's clear that they're aiming to do something way bigger and different for part 3,

I've mentioned in the past that the crescendo of Sephiroth reveal was ruined in Remake and I believe it's the same case with Jenova by fighting against Dreamweaver in this "illusion" realm thing. This and the fight against Sephiroth kinda ruins the presentation of the story and its events for me

In both gameplay and storytelling. I believe that fighting against Sephiroth in all parts makes it less impressive because of its repetition, he's the final boss in Remake, and then in Rebirth which is a bummer because we already did that and then we're gonna do that in Revelation again. Same
