The reson why I am hesident to get FFAC is bacause of the name Advent and now this only conferms it I still don't know if I'll geet it, I just wished they would of used there own stuff. They also used allot of other stuff from the bible.
*"Advent Children": The term "Advent" means "An anticipated arrival." In the
case of Christian Mythology, it refers to the Second Coming of Christ. In the
case of Advent Children, the title was used as the film featured the return of
Sephiroth, the "New God." The "Children" in question in the title would be
Kadaj, Yazoo, Loz, the children who were afflicted with Geostigma, and
possibly Cloud himself.
*"Kadaj": This name is a take on "Kaddish," a Jewish prayer of mourning.
*Aerith's Role: Aerith has essentially become the will of the Planet itself.
She guided its Lifestream to the salvation of humanity at the end of Final
Fantasy VII, and she again guides the will of the Planet in Advent Children,
bringing Great Gospel to cure Cloud and others of Geostigma, destroying all
JENOVA Cells that she touches with it. The symbolism here is that she has
become "Mother Earth," the name given to the spirit of the Planet Earth in
many cultures. Recall that Aerith's name is a Japanese transliteration of the
English word "Earth."
*Kadaj, Yazoo, and Loz as a Trinity: According to Christianity, God is
composed of three spiritual components, or personas; one might even call them
different functions. These are the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Man
also is said to be composed of a trinity, in this case consisting of the Mind,
the Body, and the Soul. Kadaj, Yazoo, and Loz are a trinity that arose from
Sephiroth's defeat at the end of Final Fantasy VII. His will manifested them
from the Spirit Energy it contaminated, thus, they are him, though they have
different personas from his as individuals.
*Cloud Pouring Water on Denzel's Head: This is symbolic of Baptism, the
concept in which one anointed with the Spirit of God and empowered with his
authority to cleanse one of their sins pours water on the head of a repentant
sinner, the action symbolizing that the individual is cleansed of their past
evil and is granted spiritual rebirth. In the film, this was symbolized by
Cloud "baptizing" Denzel in pouring water on his head and cleansing him of the
"evil" of JENOVA's Cells, curing him of Geostigma.
