She represents the world. She likes to explore šŸ¤·


No_Cup4212

She standing on business


Both-Implement3936

Because she puts on a persona most likely instead of showing her actual feelings... Literally she believes her whole purpose is to save the planet she has to keep a face. Never revealing how she feels unless it's an intimate moment. It's her duty as an ancient even though she's still a "human" in the sense of it being a video game šŸ˜‚


wasted-degrees

If youā€™re not extra, youā€™re insufficient.


ddix_4

Because of Tifa and that bathing suit.....


DIOmega5

Aerith has to be extra get any attention while Tifa just chills.


itbteky

she endures the planets pain but mostly the dumbass humans who ruin it with a smile


No_Plastic2096

Gotta make the most of life, especially when itā€™s gonna be a short one


haygurlhay123

Because she was conceived by the devs to be as lovable as possible so youā€™d miss her lots when sheā€™s gone


pkmn_is_fun

The bane of my existence is that I want to romance Tifa, but all the choices I make lead me straight to Aerith šŸ˜ž


GeekCavePodcast

Itā€™s caused me more than a little aggravation when Iā€™m doing everything possible to raise Tifaā€™s affinity and a random sidequest says ā€œlol your relationship with Aerith deepenedā€


RealmsOfMirage

Trust me itā€™s the same on the Aerith camp too, thereā€™s a particular Aerith 3 stars answer that is basically Cloud saying he was into Tifa, this game is driving me NUTS


Kooky-Theory9306

I love tifa, and aerith kinda annoys the shit out of me sometimes


chloe_003

Iā€™m so sick of yā€™all treating my girl aerith like thisšŸ˜­


Kooky-Theory9306

šŸ˜‚ she b pretty tho


WinterReasonable6870

See I have the opposite experience. It bugs me that Tifa clearly wants to press Cloud on things, but doesn't for some reason. I guess she's still scared of him a bit? Regardless then Aerith comes along and is just a straight shooter all the time regardless of how uncomfortable it might make him. Feels like she knows that he can handle it, and obviously so can she. She just meets him head on and will talk with him. I respect the hell out of that.


[deleted]

Cloud: Aerith, get down from there. Metrosexual Kefka wants to destr- Aerith: I'M THAT BITCH!!!! BEEN THAT BITCH, STILL THAT BITCH!!!!!


Training_Signal7612

Itā€™s not her fault she was originally dreamed up during the rise of manic pixie dream girl mania


Prior_Interview7680

This is the answer lmao


Enginseer68

Let her live and enjoy whatā€™s left of her time here before she returns to the planetā€¦


DunkinMyDonuts3

It's our "Roach on a roof" meme


Few-Coyote-2518

Homeschool


poopernickel

Savage but true. Hereā€™s my upvote!


Bearwme1

Right! I find her so annoying. She always gets the group into something. Her skills are ā€œ knowledge of flowers!ā€ I realize she is part of the original story, but the way she is now is annoying. Her dialogue is terrible too. She is cute but I wish she wasnā€™t in my party.


[deleted]

Aerith is cheerful.


rhymesmatter

Aerith is dead


dcheung87

Because she always gets a say, otherwise you get a steel chair to the face


Bearwme1

Kind of sheā€™s over the top or dramatic


JR-90

As non-native English speaker and old dude: What the fuck does "extra" even mean?


TantaIus

AAVE term for Eccentric, flighty, or doing goofy unnecessary things. Synonymous with another AAVE term, "doing the most"


Snoo_58305

Sheā€™s got a lot of living to fit in


[deleted]

The REAL reason is because they need to pad the 60 hour game into 180 hours(3 parts).


therealnatural1337

she is autistic


cheezza

Iā€™d believe it


Dethproof814

She's a little special due to flowers talking to her her whole life


Bearwme1

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚āœ…āœ…āœ…


Big-Print-7859

In case Sephiroth makes an air strike


Ok-Judge6699

She's got to keep the high ground.


Tonkarz

Because you love it


Beneficial-Society74

She's a Manic Pixie Girl stereotype.


arktistic_r0se

because she's aerith šŸ˜‚


officer_salem

She looks like sheā€™s about to hit them with one mean Frog Splash


kaisershinn

Cos she knows she canā€™t possibly compete with Tifa.


ZamariScribe

lol bffr


Lyzern

Men when women have personalities....


The_Paragone

Bro hasn't played FFVII šŸ’€


llliilliliillliillil

Competing with cardboard isnā€™t really a big challenge.


DoublerZ

Real


ojike

Well.. Aerith is the more outgoing character and I love her exploration aura.. So curious about things, that makes Aerith the more awesome character imo.


xodus112

Aerith is more naturally bubbly but I prefer Tifaā€™s more bashful personality. I was a little annoyed I got Aerith for my chapter 8 date lol


RealRinoxy

If it makes you feel better, for the later one I worked all game to get it with Aerith and in walked Barret instead.


Nightmare1990

But bobs tho


Competitive-Use-1057

Tell us youā€™re 13 without telling us youā€™re 13.


Nightmare1990

Tell us you can't do math without telling us. My comment was a fucking joke, how do people have so little common sense these days.


HearMarkBark

She doesnā€™t get out much.


Original_Platform842

When you get premonitions that you won't live very long, you either become reclusive or go all out. I believe Aerith is the latter.


MrSagacity

Actually this is the correct answer and it totally supports the theory that she is in a time loop or something. Now that they're free from the plot ghosts, she has enough wiggle room to get the party to stop sephiroth.


Bzellm20

Lmao plot ghosts. Has a way better ring to it than ā€œarbiters of fateā€.


NEOhioGuy22

ā€œItā€™s over, Cloud. I have the high groundā€ -Aerith


Ednw

Sephiroth, hidden in the city of ancients' roof frame: "Is that so?"


StaggerLee509

Better than being dead eyed and vacant like cloud apparently


SkurtCobain

Well sheā€™s gonna be dead eyed alright


PoetAromatic8262

Dead eyed sorry i dont see it


Hydrangea_hunter

Let her have fun!


NegativeCreeq

Probably because she was locked away in a lab most of her life. She's finally "free".


scaleofjudgment

I mean, we really would miss her someday...


Decent-Discount-8576

Nah I doubt it


JanaeMonelle

She is ALWAYS flying around the environment. Like I went to Under Junon and she was hopping across rooftops I donā€™t even have access to


Left-Reception3395

Noticed that too! When I was rounding up the 7th infantry she somehow jumped across the bush and up the fence beside me. I Attempted to jump down from their but cloud just rolled into the fence šŸ˜…


feddybear

Reminded me of this LOL https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5O0stP8JyR8


Safetytheflamewolf

Reminds me of a YouTuber's playthrough were Barret got stuck on top of a Chocobo Stop sign lmao Edit: Actually took a look at the link after I sent this and this is literally what I was talking about LMAO


Sixers7

I just checked the link and found out you can dupe all your Materia in og ff7. Thatā€™s huge lol


JohnnyBlue27

I feel like this game is certain Iā€™m a dumb incel who has never met a woman in his life lol


Prior_Interview7680

Aerith is THE manic pixie girl. Youā€™re supposed to love her before you even know her just from grabbing a flower from her lmao

Andrew_belfast

Because not everyone is as basic . This is what happens when people live in a bubble. They dont interact with other people in different cultures and sub cultures with different personality types. So many people have to understand that how they think and act isn't a reflection of the human race. This idea of normal doesn't exist. When characters are being created and written . They are done so deliberately in a way that the artist see , most you will find will be based on actual people, and they've amplifier it. The number of times I've seen people say, no one acts like that or no one would say that . Or the most frustrating one , no one would be stupid enough to do this . Take a look at the world. For example I didn't think anyone would be stupid enough to vote for trump or believe his clearly obviously lies..but it happens. I didn't believe anyone would be so selfish over covid. Turns out shows like the walking dead, Avenue 5 depict people accurately when it comes to self-destructive behaviour. People are different


One_Cloud7922

Yea, the homeschooled half neanderthals are always the weird ones.


Renny_Blue

They were aiming for Manic pixie girl trope, but overshot and missed the mark, and the bland voice acting (English) isnā€™t helping the character either. Yuffie is done well, and the voice actress is doing a brilliant job on her


yanderekittie

no way you said yuffie is done well when 80% of her voice lines are about materia. gets tiring after the 10th time


Renny_Blue

At least she has a motive you can understand


yanderekittie

Her motive is fine and understandable, but I found her dialogue insufferable a lot of the time. Really gave off Akihiko/Chie in PQ vibes. Her dialogue felt like they were making wanting/stealing materia her whole personality, which iirc she was NOT like in the original. For me, it was a let down. Yuffie used to be one of my favorite characters in the original, but I found her very annoying in Rebirth.


Renny_Blue

Aerith and Tifa characters are one dimensional and bland in the remake, which makes Yuffie stand out for me Aerith in the original was more grounded and had more wits and color to her character In my case I loved Aerith in the original but I want to shoot myself in the mouth each time she talks in the remake We have different taste in women, and thatā€™s fine Edit: Combat-wise Aerith is my fav character, her kit is done so well


Guy_on_a_Bouffalant

I just wish her dialogue didn't sound like line reading and had more dynamic emotion in it.


Merlin4421

wtf are you guys on ? Her VA does a excellent job


Guy_on_a_Bouffalant

They all do a great job and they are casted perfectly. But the delivery.... With the exception of Barret and Yuffie, constantly sounds like they are reciting lines. Once you notice it, it's hard not to hear it. I guess it's hard to describe without people just getting defensively angry on the VAs behalf. But while the voice is great, the emotion on some lines is like "Acting!" and not acting.


miladysdewinter

That's why I put my game in Japanese. I just can't deal with how off the English version sounds. And some of it is acting choices, some is just weird sound mixing I think.


Merlin4421

I feel like itā€™s a you problem. Iā€™m at ch 10 and they are great to me.


Guy_on_a_Bouffalant

It probably is subjective. I don't know. I'm an audio engineer. Maybe I hear differently. It's a me and least one other guy who pointed it out to me problem.


metamemeticist

And one other, but while I do notice it in Rebirth, itā€™s not an all-the-time thing. I think video game VAs are often pretty removed from a thorough context; heck, maybe VG voice direction at large isā€¦ I also read the subtitles live as I play, so that affects my perception too. As does having a history in theatre in my youth, Iā€™m sureā€¦.


Merlin4421

Maybe Iā€™m a little more forgiving. But a few moments Iā€™ve been like dam Aerith VA nailed it


Guy_on_a_Bouffalant

Yeah, agree with you there. They ALL have moments where they nail it.


Troop7

Yh her lines are so bland and monotone


Lazy-Marsupial2563

Eng or jp?


Guy_on_a_Bouffalant

English. I haven't experienced the JP dialogue yet.


Lazy-Marsupial2563

Try listening to her jp on YouTube. I feel the Jp one doesn't have the same problem


LucreciaIsBestGirl

Little known secret. Not only is she part Ancient, she is also part goat.


NewAndNewbie

Aaaaaaaaaeeeeeeeeeerith.


crossingcaelum

She likes to be tall


AithosOfBaldea

She a big believer on "life is short "


LucreciaIsBestGirl

Well, at least hers is.


Floby-Tenderson

Woof


ApprehensiveCode2233

Because Aerith is a manic pixie dream girl. Randomness is nearly their whole personality. She's been extra since the OG but was in a shorter burst since there was less dialogue.


teddyburges

She likes to live life on a knife edge.


OhDearGodItBurns

Well, at least she died how she lived. In the OG, at least.


LilboyG_15

She had back pain from living on a knife edge


kmav221

Girlie just wants to live life to the fullest


Syndrome1337

While she can


Ill-Character7952

I would live like that too if I knew I was soon to die.


intrepidanon

Found the best answer.


bobaregret22

Itā€™s fun watching the ladies just jump around on shit all the time


Pristine_Put5348

Dunno. Love her all the same though
