Let's Mosey: A Slow Translation Of Final Fantasy VII: Part Three

Overview

I’ve been playing Final Fantasy VII in Japanese and English at the same time, and I’m noticing a lot of neat little differences. This is part three of my video series. Today, we’re going to meet Tifa and Aeris. Everyone in the English version refers to Cloud and Tifa as “childhood friends”, though does that mean something more interesting in Japanese? The answer (which is, “sort of”) may blow your mind—or it might just entertain you. I would appreciate it if it did either of those for you. As always, a warning: any Japanese you learn over the course of this video might never be of any use whatsoever to you.
