* HarsherInHindsight: This wouldn't be [[Machinima/FinalFantasyVIIMachinabridged the last FFVII parody]] to depict Dyne as a KnightOfCerebus rather than play him for laughs.
* HilariousInHindsight: The comic pretty much has a TakeThat at the ''Compilation of VII'' every time it gets brought up, to the point that Cloud calls ''Anime/FinalFantasyVIIAdventChildren'' a horrible vision of the future. Years later with ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIIRemake'', [[spoiler:it ends up having the Whispers of Fate using an ''Advent Children'' scene in one of their [[PsychicDreamsForEveryone visions of the future]] which the cast interpret as a bad future.]]

** At comic #440, one of the darkest moments of the game finally happens, with the author admitting that they couldn't make this any easier to see. [[spoiler: Cloud gets controlled by Sephiroth, giving him the Black Materia. He then proceeds to brutally beat Aeris into the ground while ranting like, all while Cloud is ForcedToWatch it happen [[AndIMustScream without being able to do anything about it]], crying that this was supposed to be "a funny comic".]]
