>Here's the FF7 red pill: FF7 isn't as anime as most people remember. I think the most anime thing that happens is Cloud jumping off a bridge onto a moving train. Or I guess flipping into the train car. When people think of anime movements in FF7, they're primarily thinking of the battles which aren't supposed to be 1:1 with what actually happens unless you think Bahamut ZERO nuking a continent is canon. So Sephiroth being gutted and then dropped I think has more gravitas than modern interpretations of that scene. Same way an exhausted Zack being caught by surprise and killed had more weight than Zack triumphantly soloing a Battalion and calling Cloud his living legacy
"Anime" wasn't "anime" back then. FF7 massively borrows the story, aestetics and especially humor from 90s tv anime shows so it feels like an anime in game form. Combat was a bit more grounded partially because they were still trying to emulate live action films/tv, and because the cel animation led to more stileted movement. More fluid action required more budget and they often didn't have that.
The shaky cam characters jumping all over the place is a 00's phenomenon. Shows try to up the ante to stand out with bigger and bigger feats. 3D allows for more camera angles, and more movement.
