Many in the video game community would likely agree that a villain is likely one of the main factors that make for an effective title. This is seen in the popularity ofFinal Fantasy 7’s main protagonist Sephiroth. And thoughFF7is already decades old, many fans of the game likely still recall thesinister vibes Sephiroth gives offthroughout the story. Now, another fan has sketched out Sephiroth in all his villanous glory, sharing their artwork online for theFF7community to appreciate and enjoy.
Final Fantasy 7fans can attest to how famous Sephiroth has become, seeing as he often makes appearances in many other Square Enix titles such asKingdom Hearts,World of Final Fantasy, andDissidia. The character seems to be well-loved enough globally that he was even added as one of the more recentDLC fighters inSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate. With Sephiroth still relevant to the gaming universe today, it is not surprising that fans will also make original artwork that showcases their love and admiration for the character, even though he is mostly known for antagonizingFF7’s main character Cloud Strife for as long as fans can remember.
