I'm convinced that, in the gaming world, Sephiroth is as iconic as Darth Vader.

[@Xardion55]

Yip. Sephiroth - One-Winged Angel Darth Vader - Imperial March

[@insanitycrafter8553]

Never heard of him before smash.

[@slimballs9650]

@@insanitycrafter8553 I’ve heard of him, but not much else. Not even this theme.

[@Nickmaster8811]

sephiroth is considered by many to be the most "iconic" final fantasy villains. even in lore. to draw a comparison cloud is like the Belmonts only they can truly defeat Dracula. cloud is the only 1 who can truly defeat sephiroth. sephiroth is kinda also polar opposite to cloud. as cloud moves slow and carries a large sword. sephiroth is fast and wields a elongated katana. sephiroth was the first final fantasy villain on the play station all the others were primarily on nintendo consoles. fun fact in kingdom hearts(the series sora is from) 1 & 2 sephiroth is a secret super boss that is harder than the final boss. sure for kingdom hearts 2 final mix theres lingering will which makes sephiroth look easy but thats a kingdom hearts birth by sleep character as a boss. sephiroth's final smash is reference to the final boss of the original ff7 and his limit break super nova. which i HIGHLY encourage u to look up a video on. to sum it up its a meteor that comes to our solar system and obliterates 6 of the 9 planets (this was before pluto was no longer considered a planet.)

[@kylebeguhl8516]

@@MrNeedleMouse I’ll let you in on it, NeedleMouse. I haven’t played FF7 mused, but this is what I know. Sephiroth is the One-Winged Angel. The result of horrendous experiments involving the cells fo a god named Jenova, he is blessed with incredible power, speed, and reflexes. However, one day he went completely insane and became hellbent on becoming a god and using the ultimate Black Magic, Meteor, to destroy the planet. There are very few who can challenge Sephiroth, fewer who can match him, and fewer still who can stop him.

Sepihroth’s Classic theme will always be a true classic but the Final Fantasy Vll: Advent Children’s version brought a whole new level of badassary and I’m glad they chose it.

[@reyonXIII]

True. The Advent version's the most perfect version for a super action setting like Smash. The original version's still more perfect for Safer Sephiroth in all his divine cosmic terror. I'm kind of glad nothing's been able to top the original in conveying how screwed in the ass you are in facing something like Safer Sephiroth. No other mainline FF final boss theme conveys that. Even Dancing Mad's final tier, there's still a fast tempo that indicates this is a desperate heroic struggle. None of that struggling here.

Sakurai is also a big Advent Children fan. Shoot this whole trailer seems to be based on the movie. Sephiroth stabbing and holding up Mario, Cloud’s new final smash, rolling in storm clouds. It’s a beautiful trailer.

Same and I'm excited just for this guy's badass theme song.

I just love how everyone is waiting for a hero to save the characters and it turns out to be worse than what they were already facing. And everyone is more hyped.

[@ClawsAndTeeth]

With Sephiroth, it was his music. With Sora, it was his weapon. With the fans, it felt so surreal.

@@MeShatGamer If that's true then I weep for what this world is becoming... Perhaps get some sort of random gimmick noise. Perhaps the roblox death OOF or something? Anything but silence. It makes it seem like the audio is cutting out and kills the rhythm.

There's a guy who didn't get featured in this called Pinoybrothers54 In 2018 when Final Fantasy coming to Switch especially FF7. He's calling that Sephiroth is gonna coming to Smash but it didn't happens. But two years later now in TGA 2020 his Dream come true

The best part of these reactions it that everyone knew who it was by hearing the music.

[@TheHyperTuber-VantaBlack]

My reaction was more like: "Wait I know this music...HOLD THE FUCK IT'S SEPHIROTH?" And what's funny is that I'm not even a Final Fantasy fan, yet I got excited.

[@VapourXY]

Gotta love how Sephiroth coming into Smash made everyone happier than whoever they expected ❤

[@krishanuphukan80]

Sephiroth speaks the truth. With a blade that long, he does bring despair to Smash.

[@GioGio98573]

I gotta give the best reaction to my best friend who heard one winged angel in another room and yelled "did i just hear one winged angle?" And proceded to let out a primal scream of panic and joy

[@LuckyLuck-ls7ot]

All the smash fighters: thank you sephiroth! You saved us! Sephiroth: oh I wouldn’t say saved I’d say, under new management

[@dartvega12]

i never played final fantasy so i don’t get the hype, but i love seeing how excited everyone is it makes me so happy

[@Goujiki]

I don't know how old you are but Sephiroth is one of gaming's most iconic villains. I'm not that young but I also recognize Steve from Minecrafts iconic status tho. As well as Sans, even tho I've never played undertale and I played minecraft for about a week.

[@shazybean131]

In short, Sephhy is pretty much a rung below Bowser in terms of iconic villains.
