Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children US Premiere

Last night, Monday 3rd April 2006, was a very important night for Final Fantasy fans. The US Premiere of the long awaited Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children was  shown at the Arclight Cinerama Dome in Hollywood. This was the first time the film had been seen in English, after it’s Japanese release last year.

As any hardcore Final Fantasy fan will know, Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children is set two years after Final Fantasy VII for the PSX, and briefly explains the storyline of Final Fantasy VII for those who played the game; before diving into the full Advent children storyline.

“Tifa and Cloud opted for a peaceful life where they run a delivery service and take care of children orphaned by the previous disaster. However, all is not well. A mysterious illness called geostigma has been affecting the children. A new gang run by Kadaj seeks to find Jenova and itÂ’s up to Cloud to reunite with his friends to stop the utter destruction of the world again.”

Advent Children features some great action scenes, including motorcycle and aerial combat – and not to mention a brilliant Sword fight between Cloud and Kadej. There are a few differences between the Japanese and the US versions, most notably the character voice overs, with a completely new voice cast featuring in the US version.

Some lucky Final Fantasy fans even managed to grab some freebies, such as PSP accessories and Calendars, and are probably at the envy of every other Final Fantasy fans right now. For anybody that wasn’t lucky enough to be at the premiere, Final Fantasy VII: Avdent Children goes on sale April 25th on both UMD and DVD .
