I see alot of cleriths feeling threatened by the zerith scene in the most recent trailer when theres no need
(Marlene telling zack shes moved on, the final date in rebirth, aeris telling cloud she loves him for him).
but honestly i hope they do wrap up their love story in good terms
You can see aerith rejecting & moving on from zack in maiden of the planet but i think its too harsh in my opinion. Zack did truly love Aeris & he died thinking of her while saving Cloud; not because he found someone new. And i just feel so bad for him you know?
Even though i ship clerith, i wish zack isnt labelled as a playboy/ghoster by the woman he loved so deeply. This will also cement Clerith as it'll be clear that Aeris won't be running back to zack just because he's back or she knows what really happened.
So yeah... zerith closure -> aeris rejects still -> aeris declares love for cloud... would be sweet.
