Man, she really loves Cloud. Hence she tries to spent a little time she had left to go on a date with Cloud.
Hence she hug Cloud because she just can't help it. But she also held back because she knew about her imminent death. Hence she says sorry to Cloud before and after the hug.

Man, Cloud living alone in the church right next to Aerith's flowers in AC was already sad as hell, but now it's even sadder knowing it was "their spot"

When Aerith holds cloud’s hand and when she hugs him…it feels so powerful…

This is the best scene in the game. It eclipsed her death in the best way, truly.

I feel like this entire date is a reflection of cloud and aerith's relationship, in that they never really had a choice about where their relationship should go, the world makes each decision for them and that the only thing that they have a choice in is to be with each other's company, cherish the moments they spend together and have fun while it lasts.

Finally someone who actually recorded this date scene while really romancing Aerith.. so Cloud responds properly "Yeah. Next time." Thank you!

This is so heartbreaking. We all know that aerith dies, but with this remake, with so much more dialogue, square enix has somehow made this event so much more emotional.

I like how they avoid Aerith's theme throughout this scene until they actually reach the church.
It's like Aerith herself is trying not to think about her fate until the last moment.

Cloud, please find and save her. She deserves every best

This scene absolutely broke me, having played FF7 back in 97. The way I took this scene was that this was OG Aerith living up to a promise of a date she and Cloud never had in the original game. I don't know if anybody thought the same.

I lost her again, but this time in 4k 😢

I didn't get particularly emotional when Aerith died in Rebirth - I've had more than two and a half decades to get over that. But here, in this scene, where she literally pushes Cloud back to reality, that broke my heart.

No promises to keep playing during the date

@my7162 2 years ago

Aerith knows she will be soon killed by Sephiroth so she looks almost crying through this date. You can listen to NPtK only on this part. This Dream date is her last date and her dream, noted on the Sound Track. She really wanted to spend time with Cloud at the last moment, but he never understood how she felt　→　Hollow

The way they hold hands right before heading for the picture, they’re great for each other…

11:05 - 12:12 The dialogue, the cinematography, the music… perfection.

This is an amazing retelling of Aerith going off to the Forgotten Capital by herself and biding her farewell to Cloud through his dreams. It's more elaborated, more emotionally charged and just makes the next turn of events hurt more 😢

Seeing Sephiroth enter the church after she pushes Cloud away with the music score at peak gave me the chills.

I think the most poignant thing of all is that even in the dream world where Cloud and Aerith are together, she still sacrifices herself to save the true reality. It's the reason why her character is so compelling. She is a Christ-like figure who willingly gives everything up in every situation for the good of everyone else.
