But let’s be honest: Although it was nice to see Zack’s backstory, it was his biggest moment Essence of Crisis: Final Fantasy VII When we learned how evil Sephiroth keeps his long hair super luxurious. Over the course of the original game, Zack can join the Sephiroth fan club known as Silver Elite He sends him emails With trivia about their silver champ, including his hair care routine.

The introductory message after Zack enlists with the Silver Elite reads as follows:

Dear members of the Silver Elite:

In this update, we present another piece of Sephiroth trivia—the secrets to his beautiful long hair.

The hair products he uses are of the highest grade, made and supplied by the Shinra Company.

He seems to use one whole bottle of both shampoo and conditioner every time he washes his hair.

They are scented with thirteen kinds of perfumes, including Rose and Vanilla.

Apparently, the scent in the air after Sephiroth tosses his hair changes daily!

I don’t need to tell even the most hygienic gamers out there that that’s a lot of shampoo and conditioner. How does Sephiroth even find the time to use that much product between all his war crimes? Kudos for the dedication to maintaining that beautiful head of hair, but damn, does Sephiroth always have to be so extra?

“I think [Crisis Core’s story] It has stood the test of time,” said Creative Director Tetsuya Nomura, a man with His own penchant for drama. “It’s something that is very much appreciated by people. And when I look at the story and how it was put together, I don’t really find many flaws in it. I think it’s still a very complete story and has been put together almost perfectly in so many ways.”

Essence of Crisis: Final Fantasy VII Reunion Coming to PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Switch, and PC sometime in late 2022.
