>most popular jrpg in japan>no anime adaption of the main storyWhy didn't FF7 get anime?
Didn't it get a movie?
>>283332648Why does everything need an anime adaptation?>most popular jrpg in japanBullshit.
>>283332670Not counting Pokémon and Monster Hunter, the only RPG to outsell FFVII in Japan is apparently DQ9. DQ8 seems to be tied with it. I'm actually pretty surprised. I thought DQ would be much higher in general. FFVII and DQ8 are the two best-selling, non-handheld RPG's. Accounting for physical sales only, at least.
>>283332717Oh, I read the list wrong. It's tied with DQ7. Unsurprising given that PS1 was such a beloved console along JRPGfags.
>>283332648What's the point of anime adaptation if it's already one of the most popular JRPGs in Japan?
>>283332648>most popular jrpg in japanlmao, not even close
>>283332648>most popular jrpg in japanWe are not in 90s grandpa
>>283332648Dragon quest is more popular
>>283332648imagine the constant barrett NTR threads no thank youalso you and i know they wouldn't make a 1 to 1 adaptation of the video gay because they couldn't even do that with the """remakes"""do you really want to see a """modern""" take on the story with new retarded and unnecessary plot twists and a bunch of low budget cgi?
>>283332648game adaptations are always low budget and never better than the real thing
>>283332648>>most popular jrpg in japan
>>283332648i watched a pirated version of "Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children" the movie back in 2015-16 what are you talking about bro
because Square didn't want to give out the license, I'd guess. they bet on their in-house movie making stuff, which eventually lead to Spirits Within, company tanking and merging with Enix.
>>283332840Nier anime was really good.
>>283332648Advent Children Complete was pretty good. There were other Final Fantasy movies too. Also, going from a video game medium to an anime or live action medium, you're losing degrees of freedom, it's a downgrade, which is why adaptations of video games are so extremely rarely good at all.
>>283332648>both heroines are used goodsthis shit doesn't belong on /a/
>>283333200No. The whole compilation is low quality shit. It would be better if ff7 remained a standalone story like ff8 and 9.
Hey dumb dumb
>>283333186ehe
>>283332648wat
>>283334267Does that look like the main story to you?
>>283334970iirc it's a pretty faithful adaption of one of the game scenes
>>283334984UNfaithful adaptation, you mean? Like Sephiroth literally committing suicide for no reason?
>>283332717>ff8 is actually on this listkek the japs are a sucker for melodramatic romance
sephiroth died in the reactor and jenova was wearing his skin
>>283337640Everyone and their mothers wants an 8 remake. That's the game that needs to be fixed
>>283332670>Why does everything need an anime adaptation?Because anime is fun.
>>283337675i like ff8 but i agree a remake is in order
>>283332648>why doesn't [video game or other offtopic shit] have an anime???>>>/v/ you dont actually want to talk about anime
Aren't JRPGs just movie games with walking simulator elements anyway? If you're not careful the people just won't buy the game because they already saw the story in the anime
