  This amv show story in Final Fantasy 7 Advent Children and Final Fantasy 7 Dirge of Cerberus in same timeline. This project start before 2 mounth, but it was hard to find all trailer of FF7Dirge of Cerberus in good quality, because of that i finish this amv now, not before 1 mounth. In almost all time i use lyric sync and in fast places i use fast scenes and try do make good beat sync, but it wasnt that easy because source of FF7Dirge of Cerberus that i use didnt have so many long fighting scenes. Most of effects that i use are collor effects to boost or change collor of scenes. I choise song of Gackt - Redemption, because i like that song very much, beside the trailer of FF7Dirge of Cerberus was with this song and i this is like a big remake of original trailer. This amv is mainly for FF fans, but i hope many people who arent FF fans to like it. Thats all for now.

  Song lyrics
  
  Japanes lyrics :
  
  Hizuka ni sora ni kaeru anata no sugata wo
  what else can I do besides avenge you?
  Namida ga kareru made zutto mitsumete ita
  
  Afureru kanashimi wa kese nai kizuato ni
  Wasure wa shinai to chikatta
  
  Oreta tsubasa wo habatakase
  Subete wo keshsite mise you
  Itsu no hi ka owari wo mukaeru
  Saigo no kane ga nari yamu made
  
  you told me
  live as if you were to die tomorrow
  feel as if you were to be reborn now
  face as if you were to live forever
  
  Furueru yubi de akai namida wo nazotta
  I had nothing to lose, nothing truth
  Hakanai omoide ga yami ni ochite yuku
  
  Saigo no hohoemi ga ukandewa kieru
  Nukumori dake wo nokoshite
  
  Yasashii dake no kotoba nara
  Ima no bokuha iyase nai
  Hateshi naku tsuduku tatakai ni
  Kono mi wo subete sasageru dake
  
  Itsuka wa kono sora ni daremo ga kaeru kara
  Wakare no kotoba wa ira nai
  make it up
  
  Oreta tsubasa wo habatakase
  Subete wo keshite mise you
  Itsu no hi ka owari wo mukaeru
  Saigo no kane ga nari yamu made
  
  Yasashii dake no kotoba nara
  Ima no bokuha iyase nai
  Hateshi naku tsuduku tatakai ni
  Kono mi wo subete sasageru dake

  English lyrics :
  
  Your form which returns gently to heaven
  What else can I do, besides avenge you?
  I watched it for the longest time, until my tears dried up.
  
  And the sorrow overflowing from the scar which can't be erased,
  I swore that I would never forget it.
  
  I'll flap my broken wings and erase it all some day, you'll see,
  Until the last bell ringing the dirge completes.
  
  You told me to live as if you were to die tomorrow.
  Fail not and be what we were now
  Face as if we want to have forever
  
  Bright red tears traced by a trembling finger,
  I had nothing to lose, nothing to lose
  It crashes through the dark memories.
  
  The last smile wavered, and disappears,
  And the warmth is all that's left.
  
  Your kind and gentle words can't heal me now,
  This body's only dedicated to the never ending fight.
  
  Because everyone returns to heaven, some day,
  You'll never need to say goodbye.
  
  Break out!
  
  I'll flap my broken wings and erase it all some day, you'll see,
  Until the last bell ringing the dirge completes.
  
  Your kind and gentle words can't heal me now,
  This body's only dedicated to the never ending fight.
