Two years after the events in “Final Fantasy VII”, a disease called ‘Seikon-Shoukougun’, or ‘Geostigma’, is spreading through the planet. This disease is believed to have been caused by the body fighting off foreign material that invaded the body two years earlier, at the end of “Final Fantasy VII”. Guilt-ridden and haunted by his past, ex-SOLDIER Cloud Strife has decided to live a secluded, solitary life away from his friends while maintaining “Strife’s Delivery Service”, whose headquarters is located in Tifa Lockheart’s bar, the Seventh Heaven. Tifa’s bar serves as an orphanage for children stricken with Geostigma. Here, Tifa keeps an eye on Barret’s six-year-old daughter, Marlene, while Barret searches the planet for an alternative energy source to the Planet’s energy, Mako. One day, Cloud receives a phone call from the former Shinra, Inc. president, Rufus, asking him for protection from a mysterious man named Kadaj. Kadaj, in the meantime, along with his brothers Loz and Yazoo, are searching for their “mother”, and seem to believe that Cloud knows where to find her. Meanwhile, Vincent Valentine has been wandering the planet gathering information on Kadaj’s scheme, and Cloud and his friends must come together again to fight these new enemies.

This 3D animation movie made by Tetsuya Nomura in 2005 is a continuation to the very well-known game Final Fantasy VII that came out on playstation in 1997. Square Enix’s mythical role playing game has impressed many gamers and is probably one of the best games I ever played.  FFVII sold more than 9.8 millions items throughout the world and has heavily contributed to expanding RPGs outside Japan.

In addition to the long version movie (26 extra minutes) in high definition, the Blu-ray Final Fantasy Advent Children Complete will provide features such as “Legacy of Final Fantasy VII”, “Reminiscence of Final Fantasy VII”, “On the Way to a Smile” and “Reminiscence of Final Fantasy Compilation”. It will not be zone limited, hence working on all players worldwide. The only disappointment as far as this very complete Blu-ray American edition is concerned, is the replacement of Final Fantasy XIII’s playable demo (PS3) with an ordinary video extract…
