Sephiroth (Final Fantasy VII)
Recommended Videos
The angst-ridden antagonist with an Oedipus complex set both his world and ours on fire in 1997, and Square Enix knows it. Sephiroth has appeared in no fewer than 20 games outside of his own in the two decades since. What’s more is that Nao Higo, a localization producer on Soulcalibur II, confirmed on a podcast with 8-4 Play that Cloud Strife was almost a guest character in the Soulcalibur series. It’s not hard to argue that Sephiroth and his 17-foot sword are a better fit, especially given his final transformation into the angelic Safer Sephiroth (a likely mistranslation of Seraph Sephiroth).
