Final Fantasy VII Remake: Traces of Two Pasts (Novel)

I am a big fan of Final Fantasy 7 since its original release. In this book, we see how much Tifa and Aerith's friendship develops and how they discuss the events of their past. I love the characters both so much, they are both beautiful, important, and amazing. This is a must-have for any fan of Final Fantasy 7

Great

I’ve played Final Fantasy VII OG, Remake and Rebirth and I’ve always wanted to know more about Tifa and Aerith (as well as other characters!) but this novel really delivered. I’ll write this review as spoiler-free as possible. The book is split into 3 parts. Part 1 is about the events before and surrounding the Nibelheim Incident from Tifa’s point of view and how she survived in the years after it. Part 2 is about Aerith’s childhood with her mom and insight into how she came to live in such a cool house in the Sector 5 slums. Part 3 is much shorter, and it’s a cool story about someone who knew Aerith as a child. The events in the story exist in the world as created in Remake and Rebirth. If you haven’t played Rebirth, the book doesn’t have any big spoilers, just some light mentioning of early game broad strokes. The book will make sense to anyone who’s played FF7 original, but it will be much more colorful in your mind if you’ve recently played Remake because it vividly references the images of Midgar as depicted in that game. All in all, Kazushige Nojima hits it out of the park for big fans of FF7’s leading ladies with this beautiful book. The translation is true and very well written. Every sentence is in congruence with the game and our beloved characters are done much justice here. Highly recommend this book for any fans thirsting for more FF7 story!

If you’re a fan of FF7 and particularly a fan of tifa and Aerith, this is simply a must buy.

No viene emplazado, es mi única queja

Da grande ammiratrice della serie, ho molto apprezzato sia la storia sia lo stile con cui vengono raccontate. Raccomando la lettura a chiunque voglia approfondire i personaggi e la trama del Remake!

If you are a fan of Final Fantasy VII, you'll love learning about Tifa and Aerith backstories in this book. Particularly I liked learning about how Tifa got to know Zangan and how Aerith lived after escaping Shinra. Happy to have it in my collection, I wish they did that for all characters.
