      You ever think about how interesting and weird it is that Sephiroth is arguably my generation's Darth Vader figure? In terms of similar iconic cultural cache and grandeur?

      Nah, Darth Vader is this generation's Darth Vader Or maybe Voldemort? Or Thanos? Not many non-gamers know Sephiroth, though

      "Non-Gamers" isn't a very large part of our generation. And I do really think Seph has cultural cache Thanos and Voldemort don't.

      Non-Gamers is most people in our generation, unless you count everyone who plays Candy Crush now and again. I guarentee if you show millennials and Zoomers a picture of Sephiroth, most of them won't know who he is. But everyone knows Voldemort and Darth

      Google Trends is. We're right after the FF7 remake release and Sephiroth is still in dead last!pic.twitter.com/jY1nB8S3kR

      On the other hand Seph has a lot more cultural cache as an image inspiring imitations than either.

      Maybe, but I think that's mostly limited to JRPG's or anime I love Sephiroth as a villain, but even at their peak JRPG's have never been comparable in popularity to blockbuster movies or Harry Potter

      I am very, very confident that nobody I went to high school with knew who Sephiroth was (I didn't know at the time either) and I am fairly confident most of them still don't

          Yeah I'm gonna call absolute bullshit on you there, Arthur. Sorry, I just think you're totally wrong. That said, as I have said repeatedly, this is more about "reshaping/creating a new popular niche of villain archetypes for the genre," which Voldemort sure as shit hasn't.

          Sephiroth had a radical effect on what "villains" from certain genre niches could look like; he was a trope-codifier that continues to reverberate through the genres in question as an image. Voldemort hasn't.
