final fantasy tactics

Aerith isn't quite alone in this game, for Cloud is in it as well. They are not main characters, but they're great to use. Apparentely, the task is to get Cloud into your party. What you have to do is go to Trade City Zarghidos and buy a flower from her (and of course, Aerith is a flower girl once again). After doing a few more things, you must return to the city and protect Cloud who is unarmed and Aeris as well, because she is being attacked by some thug gang. After that Cloud joins your party, and voila!

kingdom hearts

In this game, this is the new and improved Aerith. She has a new look and is getting on really well. When you meet her, she is accompained by Squall from Final Fantasy 8 (they call him Leon) and Yuffie, another compainion from Final Fantasy 7.

final fantasy 9

So I think I've heard that at some point in Final Fantasy 9, there is a mere suggestion that Aerith and Cloud (or, at least their character personalities, not their names) are mentioned in it when you go to Lindblum. In the weapong shop, there's a very large sword standing against the wall, and you get a very small side story that may allude to Aerith and Cloud.

advent children

Unfortunately, as all Final Fantasy fans must know, Aerith was only featured in Advent Children holding a minor role with very few lines. However, as it is indeed canon, Aerith's role is portrayed now in more of a mother-figure to Cloud; guiding him and giving him strength in his moments of weakness - and yes, from the grave; she does not come back to life. R.I.P.
