    I love how everyone is wondering about this instead of the question that since hes a floating human like creature, how on earth can he be the grandfather of a wolf-like creature?

    aside from hojo's fetishes, that is..

    I always assumed that he adopted Seto and isn't related by blood.

    Walk on water.

    And I agree with that dude who brought up the Float spell. Just like Aerith was the only one who had the Holy materia and the Temple held the Black (meteor) materia and there's one of each Summon materia, only Bugie had the Float materia and no else could get it and the stubborn old man wouldn't give it up even after he freakin' died.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    He's professor Gast. His eyes and legs were shot up, and that's why he has to be the way he is. Who else could know so much about the planet and its workings?

    It's true...

    Hmm he used to work for Shinra, maybe he got infected with mako or something?

    If I was like Cloud I don't think I would have taken that test.
    Changed to stop Jessweeee♪ from going insane. Is that better?

    Gotta get me some of that Aeris' weed.

    Wee-llllll, I guess he made himself an OAP mobility hover engine, and it's probably somewhere up his ass.

    As for Nanaki/RedXIII: Bugenhagen is his adoptive grandfather, I think. Red is apparently or supposedly the last of his kind (what is really one of the biggest mysteries of FFVII is how he managed to have offspring as seen in the '500 years later' post-credits sequence), so Bugenhagen could not be a biological relative by any means.

    Is that really it? Thank you for the clarification. I had a lot of trouble understanding some plot points because of the graphics.
    I believe in the power of humanity.

    Now *that* one is easy to answer: perhaps Hojo was mistaken when he said Nanaki was the last; he might simply be the last known member of his species.

    I ponder why the FF7 geeks can't just accept that Aerith dies. She's dead. She's not coming back in any sequel and she can't be resurrected. She was the character to take that last flight for this installment. But this was the first FF for most people so they weren't even aware of Squaresoft's trend of killing characters at the time.

    Wrong thread, there's been no mention of anyone wanting Aerith to be brought back to life here.


    "... and so I close, realizing that perhaps the ending has not yet been written."
