* On their way to Shinra HQ in Episode 8, ''[[RiddleForTheAges something]]'' [[RiddleForTheAges happened while Tifa was still high from eating Elmyra's cookies]]. A wall is painted with blood and she sees it as "made of dicks" in her stupor. Both Cloud and Barrett are disturbed about and [[LetUsNeverSpeakOfItAgain decide not to go into detail of the incident for everyone's sakes]].

--->'''Sephiroth''': [[FauxAffablyEvil Oh Cloud...]] ''[[Anime/FinalFantasyVIIAdventChildren I... will NEVER be a memory.]]''

* Episode 20 features the debut of Vincent, who's amiable right up until he mentions Hojo, [[GutturalGrowler his voice dropping down to a demonic level]] before just as suddenly snapping back to his calm even tone. If he gets that angry just talking about Hojo what's it going to be like when he and Hojo meet in person?

** The party, while chasing around [[GetBackHereBoss Ultimate Weapon,]] [[OhCrap accidentally runs into]] [[BonusBoss Ruby Weapon]]. [[TheUnfought While it left them alone,]] [[OnlySaneMan Cait Sith points out that Ruby and Emerald]] are unaccounted for to Barret, [[ElephantInTheLivingRoom who insists that all of the Weapons are taken care of.]]

* The ''[[HellIsThatNoise noises]]'' the Nibelheim Reactor Mutant makes. It's no wonder Cloud refuses to elaborate on it further, [[MoodWhiplash despite]] [[AnythingThatMoves Red XIII's insistence]].

* Episode 20 features the debut of Vincent, who's amiable right up until he mentions Hojo, his voice dropping down to a demonic level before just as suddenly snapping back to his calm even tone. If he gets that angry just talking about Hojo what's it going to be like when he and Hojo meet in person?

* The scene where Cloud sees a headless Jenova starts off just as creepy as the original game, but then we're briefly shown a short montage of disturbing flashbacks, overlaid with Zack's voice repeating "You did nothing wrong" and ending with Cloud collapsing and screaming out. [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness Tifa actually runs over to see if he's alright and tries to calm him down.]]

'''Shinra''': Our PR ''will'' take a noticeable hit, and if our consumers take issue with our actions, they are more than welcome to sign up with one of the OTHER energy companies. Oh, wait. We crushed them under our chocobo-skin shoes. And much like them, this AVALANCHE group will feel the full force of Shinra. [[UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans I am willing to utterly and completely destroy our enemies. No matter how many "omelets" need to be made.]] Do I make myself clear, Reeve?\\

** How [[ParentalNeglect utterly]] [[AntagonisticOffspring toxic]] Yuffie's relationship is with her father stops being PlayedForLaughs, here. When the party is determined to take care of any and all UnfinishedBusiness, Yuffie [[PartingWordsRegret didn't really care to say goodbye to her father]] until [[TeamMom Tifa]] basically guilted her into it. And when she does, [[AdultFear the two are so antagonistic to each other,]] '''[[TheStoner they need ACTUAL FUCKING DRUGS]]''' [[AdultFear to calm down enough to have a serious conversation.]] [[MoodWhiplash While that part IS]] PlayedForLaughs, [[FridgeHorror the fact that the two needed to be high to fix their relationship screams that Yuffie would have gladly left her father to rot otherwise]].

** [[spoiler:[[ItWasHisSled Zack's death]],]] primarily because [[WhamEpisode it was so SUDDEN]] [[CerebusSyndrome and played incredibly straight.]] [[spoiler:[[MakeSureHesDead After shooting him down, the Shinra guard casually strolls up to him, and unloads several more rounds in Zack's body for good measure.]]]] The only reason [[spoiler:Cloud survived]] was because [[spoiler:[[NotWorthKilling the Shinra employees decided HE wasn't worth the ammunition and left him on the mountainside]].]]

*** When the party responds with a WorldOfCardboardSpeech, what is Sephiroth's retort? If you guessed anything OTHER than [[ShutUpKirk brushing aside their speech with a joke]] and [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown proceeding to beat the party to within an inch of their LIVES]] [[HeroicBSoD to the point that Cloud's actually crying in pain, making him realize that he and everyone with him is about to DIE,]] you're wrong.

---> ''(scene cuts to black)''
--->'''Sephiroth''': You’re right.

--->'''Sephiroth''': It’s over...For everyone. For everything. ''([[OneWingedAngel Safer Sephiroth emerges]])'' It’s all over...'''for you'''.

*** After becoming his iconic OneWingedAngel form, the party tries to use [[InfinityPlusOneSword Knights of the Round]] [[GodzillaThreshold the ONLY summon that the party had that could possibly help them]], only for Sephiroth to [[NoSell bat it aside]], and counter with [[ThatOneAttack Supernova]], going into full HannibalLecture as he did so.

*** To put the above into perspective: [[AdaptationalBadass Sephiroth is so INSANELY POWERFUL here,]] [[AllForNothing he rendered all of the preparations that the party did for this fight completely MOOT.]] Their ultimate weapons are useless. Their maxed-out HP is pretty much running on empty. All of their spells can do is nothing. And their Ace in the Hole summon was literally smacked away. '''[[NearVillainVictory Sephiroth would have unquestionably KILLED THEM ALL]]''' had [[spoiler:[[NotTooDeadToSaveTheDay Aerith]]]] [[BigDamnHeroes not healed them in time]] for a HeroicSecondWind, allowing Cloud to cast Holy[[note]]Portrayed by Ultima's starting animation[[/note]]. Team Four Star captured the pure terror that Sephiroth can bring.
*** Even after [[spoiler:Aerith]] helped save him and his friends, [[VillainousValor Sephiroth]] proved NotQuiteDead, and makes one final, spiteful effort [[TakingYouWithMe to kill Cloud from beyond the Lifestream by possessing him again]]. Unlike the original version which had no dialogue, Sephiroth and Cloud exchange final words with each other, leading to the two's final [[CutsceneBoss cinematic duel.]]
--->'''Cloud''': "[[WhyWontYouDie You're... still alive?]]"
--->'''Sephiroth''': "[[YouCantFightFate You cannot stop fate....]]"
--->'''Cloud''': "Well, [[ScrewDestiny I'm still willing to]] ''[[ScrewDestiny try.]]'' I'll keep going. [[ImpliedDeathThreat Until you're nothing more than a memory.]]
--->'''Sephiroth''': [[FauxAffablyEvil "Oh Cloud...]] [[AsLongAsThereIsEvil I... will NEVER be a memory."]] ''*The two draw swords*'' [[FinalBattle "This is the end."]]
*** Even after he's finally defeated, Sephiroth's plan, [[StationsOfTheCanon just like in canon,]] [[NearVillainVictory still nearly succeeds.]] The group can only look on in despair as the Meteor prepares to strike... [[spoiler:[[BigDamnHeroes Thank god for Aerith's final act to guide the Lifestream to protect the Planet.]]]]
