"Advent Children: New Info"
As we all know, it is common knowledge that the Story of Advent Children takes place about 2 years after the chilling story of Final Fantasy 7, but there is now new information being released, thanx to the good people at Square-Enix.
Stopping the Destruction of the planet, people have become alot less stressed, and Stress has eased among the people, however, the people of the planet have now begun suffering a physical illness known as Seikon-Shoukougun. Not much else was known about this illness at this time. Cloud Strife Still remains the main Character of this Sequal, Apparently after the events 2 Years ago, he takes to Living alone. There is still no word on weather the promotional Video of Sephiroth and Cloud fighting means that Sephiroth is still alive or that this is a memory of Cloud.
Seen in a promotional Video is a man with Grey Hair in a wheel Chair and a Grey Haired man fighting Cloud,Coffingurl from the FFxposed told me that she think that this might be Sephiroth or have something to do with Sephiroth, the fight Scene takes place in, what looks like the Nhiblem reactor witch makes this more believable.
At a Recent Square-Enix confrence meeting, the talk about an FF7 remake was in action. The Advent Children crew responded saying, that unless FF7 became unplayable on any other systems (Like a Ps3 or something), then there would be very little possibility. It seems that Advent Children will be the only new thing reminding us of the climactic battle of FF7 For now.
Film designers are betting on the Project to Originate from the backround of many other final fantasy games, Some big names for this Project include Yoshinori Kitase who is directing the project, he also directed FFX. Shinji Hashimoto is co-producing it, he produced FF7, so this should be a treat for him. Kazunari Nojima is Sript writing, he wrote the FFX script, and of course, the immortal Nobuo Uematsu creating the masterpiece music, because as we all know, he is the music of FF.

"There's Always a Bigger Fish"
Written by Anima's_Oblivion
Knights Of The Round, Eden, The Magus Sisters, these are just some of the Omni powerful Summoning monsters offered in selected Final Fantasy Video games, this is an in dept look at a few of these and how to Acquire them and train them to be masters of Attack. You will be able to train them up to perfection.
Monster #1 is The Knights Of The Round. This is a creature that is actually 13 different monsters in one, King Arthur and his Knights brutally attack the enemy with an attack called “Ultimate End, It is one of The Strongest creatures in the whole game. It is acquired when you fulfill the Chocabo Quest and Obtain a Golden Chocabo (Contact Our Gamers for more info). The Golden Bird allows you to go across waters that even the HighWind cannot. Once there, you receive The “Knights Of The Round Materia, as well as some of the best Materia in the whole game, including Mimic. The Power is well worth the Quest, because a 5 Level Knights can destroy Sephiroth in one blow, this is definitely a good choice to go for.
The next creature we look at is one from Final Fantasy 8, the creature is called Eden, The Magnificent creature is Obtainable in 2 places, the first is a place known only to those who have the Ragnarok, it is the deep see research center. At the bottom lies the Ultimate weapon, the creature is very impossible, and his power is called Light Pillar and inflicts 9999 to your Characters. You can draw Eden from him and get a big leeway. There is another place to Draw Eden from, at the end of the game in Ultimacia's castle, there is a creature called Tiamat, he is much, much easier to defeat. Eden, once acquired, is still a pain to handle. It requires 1000 Expert Points to grow a level, and it only starts at level 30. But with a full boost of 250 and a level 100 Eden, she can do close to 50,000 damage! This is a very powerful aspect for you to know when fighting Ultimacia in that final climactic battle of hers. Eden is definitely a Winner, and worth Acquiring in either places.
The Final creature we talk about is a creature comes from final fantasy 10. It's called The Magus Sisters; the threesome is a powerful trio. They are acquired only after you have received Anima and the remaining Aeons. The 3 have the ability to do over 9999 with a single blow, and they are the first characters to allow 99,999 with a single Limit break, they are a powerful advantage against the The Final Aeon, the power within this creature, rather creatures is amazing.
Everything I have discussed (though not a whole lot) is to say this. The bosses in these games can be brutal; their power is Astonishing, From Sephiroth's Solar Flare to Sin's Gravija attack. These Monsters are obviously put here for a reason and that these titans of Mystical powers are obviously meant to be found. The Game designers have been crafty in hiding the creatures in good places. If you have any questions on how to obtain these titans in any of the games that you are currently playing, please email of one our gamers and we can help you with the problems that you are going to get.
Sources: My own Personal Experience on getting all of these creatures, and Knights Of The Round was the hardest to get. But we have the 100% truth for all of your gaming needs.

Lonely Soul
By Final Aeon Staff Member Ailiniel
The Farewell Piece
According to the game's definition of a regular Fayth (separate from the final Aeon's Fayth), a Fayth is an original survivor of Zanarkand, destroyed one thousand years ago, who goes into a dreaming sleep. This now Fayth's dream creates the Aeon, which is a personification of the dreamer.
Anima is the only Aeon of whom we actually learn something about her real waking life. She was the wife of Lord Jyscal, and the mother of Maester Seymour. She gave up her life to become a Fayth in order to help her son bring the calm. (To be able to do this, she must have been a survivor of Zanarkand.) Yet, this action did not help her son at all. What total effect this action had on Seymour was immeasurable. He became bent on death and destruction and claimed that Spira was nothing more than a spiral of death. One can only imagine a mother's pain upon seeing her child give up on hope, and become pure evil.
Anima Sola is possibly a Catholic or another Mexican religious icon. Anima Sola (Italian for Lonely Soul) is usually pictured as a woman in chains burning in the purging flames of purgatory. She/he is prevalent in Mexican folk art, especially in carved wooden figurines. It is also said that one can
pray to her for the easing of a loved one's sufferings in purgatory or for the intensifying of an enemy's pain in purgatory.
The Aeon Anima is obviously a version of Anima Sola. When summoning Anima, a large hook pulls her up from the depths of the earth, as if from purgatory, and she is wrapped and bound in chains. Around her neck hangs an image similar to those of Anima Sola herself, almost as if to point out the connection between the two.
Anima's attack called Pain seems to echo the themes of the Fayth's personal torment and Anima Sola's pain in purgatory. Or it could be a taste of the pain to come in purgatory.
Oblivion, as defined in the dictionary, means an act of or instance of forgetting, or official ignoring of offenses; Pardon. Yet Anima's overdrive Oblivion seems to symbolize eternal damnation, or
increased suffering in purgatory. These meanings seem contradictory. Perhaps iti s supposed to speak of Anima's pardon? But either way it is taken, both meanings link Anima to Anima Sola.
Seymour's mother's inescapable chains, her hideous pain and possibly even her condemnation, and Anima Sola's shackles, pain and suffering are similar. They are both women bound by what they have done. They are both tortured, and much pained in heart.
