Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's Tetsuya Nomura doesn't get why you're so thirsty for Sephiroth

It's pretty par for the course to thirst over Final Fantasy 7's Sephiroth at this point, but series mainstay Tetsuya Nomura isn't entirely sure why. Look, he might be fictional, but we all know one thing to be true about Sephiroth: he's hot. Yeah, OK, sure, he's also a murderer, but like, I'm willing to put that to the side for the sake of just one chance at a date. But it seems that Nomura, creative director on the upcoming Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, doesn't know the exact reason we all find him so enticing as a character. Speaking to Shack News, Nomura spoke of Sephiroth's role in the story, saying, "For this entire Remake project, Sephiroth makes much more of an appearance, much more so than the original title. "He is certainly a character that really moves the story along in a very immense and impactful way… As far as Sephiroth being this extremely popular character, frankly, I'm very curious as to what makes him so attractive to users, because I hear this opinion very often. His appearance, firstly, I'm sure, but also perhaps there is something about his background that brings about a particular appeal to so many of the players that makes him this iconic character."
