YMMV / Final Fantasy VII: The Sevening

Go To

  • Accidental Innuendo: When climbing the stairs up Shinra Tower, Barret complains that they should've gone in through the front. Leads into a Heh Heh, You Said "X" moment immediately after.
    Tifa: "Going in through the back is better, trust me."
  • Archive Binge: The series began on on May 13, 2010 and is currently over 400 pages long.
  • Awesome Art: Animesque and cartoony as it is, the comic can look pretty when it wants to. The author does not use parody as an excuse to half-ass his art.
  • Big-Lipped Alligator Moment: After Yuffie defeats her father, the two start laughing and turn into mantis-people. The next strip has Yuffie now back to normal, and agreeing with the narration to never mention what just happened again.
  • Crosses the Line Twice: Since part of the humour of the webcomic relies on Black Comedy, this is a given.
  • Fridge Horror: If Yuffie and Godo are any indication, there are mantis-people masquerading as humans in this world...
  • Harsher in Hindsight:
    • This wouldn't be the last FFVII parody to depict Dyne as a Knight of Cerebus rather than play him for laughs.
    • In a surprisingly subtle moment, the Meager Troop's line in Tear Jerker below strongly implies that this Cloud actually really got torn up about the death of his mother Claudia, rather than just his overwhelming rage at Sephiroth for the destruction of Nibelheim in general like the original game. Lo and behold, the remake has Sephiroth specifically bring up that he murdered her by describing her final moments, just to piss off a Cloud that bites the bait in an uncharacteristically berserk instant.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight:
  • Moe: The three main female leads are more adorable than their game counterparts. Elena and Shera too.
  • Nightmare Fuel: The aftermath of Jenova's rampage in the Shinra Tower. Fortunately, the few dismembered corpses with their insides spread on the floor that we see are seen from on a distance and not in close-ups.
  • Tear Jerker:
    • When Cloud picks up the injured Meager Troop and the latter exclaims "I couldn't... save her..." Especially because Meager Troop is the real Cloud and it is him lamenting the fact that he couldn't protect his mother against Sephiroth, even though he clearly tried his best.
    • Dyne's crossing of the Despair Event Horizon and suicide are mostly played straight, with very few jokes.
    • 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. Cloud gets controlled by Sephiroth, giving him the Black Materia. He then proceeds to brutally beat Aeris into the ground while ranting like a madman, all while Cloud is Forced to Watch it happen without being able to do anything about it, crying that this was supposed to be "a funny comic".
  • The Woobie: Shera. Because of Cid's Domestic Abuse.
