He's actually the best swordsman in te entire world at his time... and he can conjurn lightning along with seeing into the future, the movies don't show crap.... I don't question Sep but give Gandalf some credit. he uses the bright light because the orcs weakness is light, Sarouns breeders makes them resitant, otherwise they would turn to stone There is more than three parts to one book.

Okay fair enough I obviously underestimated the power of Gandalf but answer me this. Can Gandalf destroy a solar system? Can he breath in space? Even if Gandalf kills Seph he'll lose anyway since Meteor will wipe out Middle Earth.
No prob i didn't know sep was that strong, reminds me of the DBZ kinda ban crosses we imposed. Gandalf isn't really a person or a being at all, more like a force of nature walkin around in the for of an old man. But Sep will definetly win so no prob.
I'm going to give all the Gandalf fans a little task since I'm not sure how much power the old wizard has. If you can give me undenible proof that Gandalf can hold back the will of a planet, slaughter a large group of monsters and soldiers (Seph acheived this at Shinra HQ) or absorb enough power to kill the enitre solar system and I'll admit that he has a chance.

See Lord Ryugen, We all know that Gandalf is not capable of doing things like that. Of course Sephiroth can do all that. So therefore Seph wins!
But the thing that I notice about this kinda of threads is that some people (I'm not saying you) tend to think that "destruction" equals "power" is not always like that!
Certain characters like Gandalf can delegate and persuade an opponent. Is Sephiroth power all about destruction? Does he have the intellect or the cunning of Gandalf? See Gandalf may not have intergalactic powers, but he certainly has a very powerful mind.

Insanity is not something you reason with, sorry, but I'm going with Sephiroth... The man has 3 forms, one that you cannot destroy by yourself basically, the 2nd being a flying form, Gandalf can't fly last time I checked, and 3rd being so powerful that he could render anyone to dust with one fell swoop of his blade if he so chose.

Well, to start with, comparing characters from different worlds is sort of a stupid idea to begin with--Gandalf is one of the most powerful beings in the Tolkein trilogy, while Seph is (I assume from what I've heard, though I've never played the FF games) one of or the most powerful from his world. Both are, relatively speaking, incredibly powerful. But comparing the two is something like comparing the toughest 14-year old kid at a middle school to the best pro wrestler in the WWF. You can't compare the two, since their backgrounds and worlds are so vastly different.

I like the way you summed that up Revan, good point. It doesn't really make sense, but most of the things in this world don't, so just shoot for a bullseye and go along with it, no insult, honestly! FROM THE HORN!

You see making threads like this are pointless. Sephiroth has so many magic abilites that only the really heavy hitters can beat him, and althiugh Gandalf is without a doubt powerful Tolken never bothered to show what he was capable of. So I'm sorry LOTR fans Gandalf is destined for failure this time.
