I certainly dont mind them acknowledging that Aerith's death hurt him. But, like we've said, if he's just mopey and whiney about it... yuck. I dont think Aerith would want that, anyway. And I always thought of the ending as sort of Aerith leading Cloud to Tifa, with her hand outstetched and then that hand becoming Tifa. I interpreted that as Aerith sort of giving her blessing.

Aerith is the favorite in Japan though, so I have no idea what they'll do with the idea. I cant wait to seem though.

Maybe with all the things going on, he's feeling very worthless. Like feeling he failed Zack, failed Aerith, and ultimately failed the world by this whole Star Scar thing. Dunno.
