one question, who is seto, or what is seto? its not coming to my mind.
Seto is Nanaki's father.
They were tears. There's only so good you can do those with the limited graphics of a PSX.
I always thought it was rain, y'know, the stuff from the sky, 'cause, like, how do statues cry? ¬_¬
video game + dramatic scene is how statues cry
Ya, ok, sure. FFVII may be fantasy, but it's not moronic. -__-
forgot about seto. been a while since i beat that game. been playing other ff's lately. i tend to forget some stuff about others.
Seto wasn't crying, he's dead and a statue. they were in a cave and caves tend to be moist so vapor rises and condensates and percipitates (the water gathers on the cielings and since it's a cave, the water drips down from the spiky icicle shaped things, forgot what they're called, and there just happened to be one of those above seto) lol that was a mouthful.
stalactites
oh yeah that's the word..
wasnt there an open sky behind Seto though? and/or above????
oh yeah ur right im' pretty sure i saw stars or something... fine, then it was raining. who cares. lmao
Try Red XIII was crying. If it's not, don't blame me for not playing that scene in a while.
Yeah. It's a video game, guys. It doesn't have to be scientific.Quote:

well wouldn't you cry too if you were a statue and your 40 year old teenage dog son was acting like a pussy?
I thought Red XIII was like 17 in reality.
He's in his 40's, which are considered the equvilant of 'teenage' years in his race.

So that was Nanaki's Father crying not a statue!! :( Oh well, you people!!!

That was the real Seto, so he could have been crying, since he could still be alive in there. But then, you'd think he'd die of starvation or lack of oxygen... Well, whatever, it was Seto, he cried, its over and done with.
So heres a thought of what i beleive they were going for in Seto's crying scene
I believe it was indeed tears. When someone is petrified they are for all intents and purposes a rock. That is why, when your entire party gets petrified, its game over. You would in theory not die, but instead stay in a state of suspended animation unitl someone softed you. My theory is that in the petrified state, your cells would stop moving, stop aging, and consequently this would suspend you for an indefinate period. Seto however was apparently an extremely strong warrior. Bugenhagen (not sure on spelling) said that Seto continued to protect the valley even after he was turned to stone. This suggests that he was capable of overcoming its effects, for some period of time, though sheer force of will. those action could have caused his current state (why they couldnt just soft him). He may be able to overcome these effects temporarily at will. Remember that Bugenhagen also said that Nanakis mother and father both agreed to have the cave sealed. This suggests that he must have overcome it for atleast enough time to agree. It would seem however it takes a highly emotionaly filled situation for him to do it. Something like, Ohhh I dont know, Seeing his son for the first time in years and hearing his son gain admiration and respect for him. Anyway its not something provable but to me it makes sense.
very good ^^
it's just hard to believe that you can release urself out of a state of "rock" (lmao) with emotion. but it IS a game, so i'll let it slide XD
also, if one becomes a rock and even their cells are petrified, wouldn't the WHOLE body (meaning everything including blood, brain and heart) stop? so if the blood, brain and heart all stopped, wouldn't you basically be dead and not even be able to feel emotion or even think? the thing i can think of from here is that Seto's SPIRIT still guards the cave, but not his body. and some people that believe in ghosts or spirits (not saying that i do) believe that the spirit or ghost can concentrate or focus on a certain thing and make it real. this is pretty far fetched and it shouldn't have even gone this far, lol, but if you think of it that way, then seto's spirit could have gone into the statue of himself and created tears through concentration and [emotion]
just a thought. a very in depth thought that not even i really believe lol. probably should just think of it as "this is a game, it doesn't even matter. it's just expressing emotion through a dramatic scene in a fictional world"
thats so very kind of youQuote:

3. I think Bugen meant that Nanaki's parents agreed to seal the cave before Seto went in.Quote:
