.hack Series

.hack (pronounced "dot-hack") is a Japanese multimedia franchise that encompass two projects; Project .hack and .hack Conglomerate. Both projects were primarily created/developed by CyberConnect2, and published by Bandai. The series is still ongoing, with a new manga series recently announced.

The series takes place mainly within "The World", an MMORPG published and maintained by the CyberConnect Corporation, known as the CC Corporation. Players interact with The World using Virtual reality headsets called FMDs (Face-mounted display) and controllers. The World is comprised of a cluster of different servers distributed around the world. When players log in, they materialize in the Root Town of the server they last used. Root Towns are central areas in the game where players can socialize, create parties, and do business with other players and NPCs. Each server in The World has its own unique Root Town. They are the starting and ending point of any gaming session. In order to properly log out of the game, the player must be in a Root Town. Each Root Town has a Chaos Gate, a large revolving ring used to transport players to areas or other servers. To transport to an Area, a series of three keywords must be entered. These keywords determine such parameters as difficulty, terrain, and weather amongst other things. Most keyword combinations result in an Area with a field and a dungeon.

Each area features a large boundless expanse of terrain of finite size characterized by its open air environment and lack of living civilization. Typically most structures in the fields are the ruins of some long ancient dwellings, or the bones of some massive creature. They contain dungeons, which are labyrinths containing two to five descending levels of interconnected rooms. It contains a single entrance/exit that links the first level to the field and a single stairway between levels. The deepest level of the dungeon contains a special room known for the distinctive floating figure, known as a Gott Statue, behind a golden treasure chest.

Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children (movie)

Alternative Titles: Advent Children, ファイナルファンタジーＶＩＩ: アドベントチルドレン
Genres: action, fantasy, science fiction

The story began in Midgar, city of mako, where a corporate superpower known as Shinra used its monopoly of mako energy to dominate all aspects of life, securing political power in the process. Shira's mako reactors dotted the city, harvesting the energy and converting it to a viable source of power.

However, mako energy was not the wellspring of happiness Shinra claimed it to be, but rather the vitality of the planet itself, the source of all life. Some began to realize: If we let this continue, the planet will die. These individuals set up an anti-Shinra organization called Avalanche, and began resistance efforts using guerrilla tactics.

Finally, Avalanche decided to blow up one of the mako reactors. Among the members chosen for the mission was Cloud Strife, a former member of Shinra's elite guard, SOLDIER.

Cloud showed no emotion and was bound by no principles; he was an ex-SOLDIER and a merc, and there was nothing more to be said. But apathy could not shield Cloud forever. The reactor strike awoke in Cloud the need to confront the holes in his past and his very reasons for being. And that journey, perhaps, took the heaviest toll...

Two years have passed...

Though Midgar, city of mako, city of prosperity, has been reduced to ruins, its people slowly but steadily walk the road of reconstruction.

However, a mysterious illness called Geostigma torments them.

With no cure in sight, it brings death to the afflicted, one after another, robbing the people of their fledgling hope.

And so Cloud, who walked away from the life of a hero to live in solitude, must step forward yet again.
