[English Dub] Organization XIII Absent Silhouettes - KINGDOM HEARTS II FINAL MIX

Make sure to visit KH13.com for any news and videos about KINGDOM HEARTS! kh13.com/
Getting Ready For Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX, Part 3
Huge thanks to Thamauturge for providing me all the needed sound files!
/ thamauturge
And to my dear sexy friend Keytotruth for creating the code to disable the enemies' Japanese grunts! / keytotruth
This is one of the most painful projects I've ever made, something that I wanted to do for a very looong time but without being sure that it was even possible to accomplish. I just randomly asked my friend Keytotruth if it was possible to disable the Organization members' voices when fighting, without really expecting a positive response, and he actually created the code out of the blue in a jiff...
So this is one of my greatest hopes for KINGDOM HEARTS HD 2.5 ReMIX, being able to fight the Chain of Memories Organization Members with their own english dub, quotes and grunts. In case you don't know, in KINGDOM HEARTS II FINAL MIX those Organization members sticked with their Japanese voices, the same sound files they used for the Japanese version of Re:Chain of Memories. If you played the English version of Re:Chain of Memories and heard their voices in battle, hearing them with the Japanese voices in KINGDOM HEARTS II FINAL MIX will sound weird.
Of course, since this game has English dub and Japanese text, they couldn't let these Organization members say proper battle quotes during a fight, since there were no English dubbers at the time, so what they did was just voicing them with random UH, AWW, OUCH, AAHHH, HAHAHAHA used for the Japanese version of Re:Chain of Memories.
The purpose of this video is showing you how it would seem a proper English version of KINGDOM HEARTS HD 2.5 ReMIX, with the Chain of Memories Organization Members being voiced in English, with the same quotes and sound files used in the English version of Re:Chain of Memories.
Note that some of their Japanese grunts used in KH2 FINAL MIX don't even come from Re:CoM. When developing the game, they actually used the Re:CoM Japanese voice actors in order to record separated grunts for KH2 FINAL MIX exclusively.
So this project is not just a copy and paste of the sound files, but it's more like syncing them all together, choosing which sound file fits better than another in a certain moment of the battle, adjusting the sound level for EACH SOUND depending by the distance of the enemy from Sora, and so on.
00:01 - Larxene
I tried to keep her annoying as she is in Re:CoM, with her random laughs and her damned LIGHTNING! LIGHTNING! LIGHTNING! LIGHTNING! Her battle is one of the most annoying in KH2 FINAL MIX, since what you do is just hear her laughing and yelling with her Japanese voice, all the freaking time, for every single move she does. Hearing her say proper English quotes makes the battle more enjoyable and definitely reminds you of Re:CoM.
03:51 - Zexion
When using the Despell Reaction Command on him, Zexion used to make a funny scream, which unfortuantely was recorded only for KH2 FINAL MIX only. So there is not an equivalent English Re:CoM version for that scream, but I managed to find a very nice replacement anyway.
09:05 - Lexaeus
His rage and screams were easily imitable. He also has a lot of nice quotes, and I did my best to insert them all at the right moments.
13:26 - Vexen
Definitely the most funny to voice. More like how he does in Re:CoM, I let him talk/laugh when Sora does a finisher and still can't break his shield, and a grunt of surprise when Sora actually breaks it (just like when Riku breaks his defence in Re:CoM as well). I found perfect how there is a sound file of him saying "I have analyzed all of your data", and let him say that right when creating Sora's Anti-Form the first time.
17:07 - Marluxia
The hardest to voice, due to his quick movements and long combos. He also has so many good quotes, and finding the right moment to use them was not easy at all, especially since his attacks style in the final battle in Re:CoM is very different from this one in KH2 FINAL MIX.
(I accidentally disabled Genie's and Peter Pan's Summons sound files too, so I had to voice both of them myself)
--
Level 45, Critical Mode. Didn't want to fight the Data on level 99 or the battles would be way too short. I just increased Sora's defense and kept his attack low, so I could be free to let them hit me and perform all of their attacks. That's the purpose of the video. I deliberately played in order to let them attack Sora and let them say the actual quotes. The savefile I was playing on didn't have all of Sora's Drive Forms unlocked, so I simply used a code to have them all available (that included Anti Form as well, but you can't obviously unlock it)
Played on PCSX2 Emulator, recorded with Fraps, using Xeeynamo's KH2 FINAL MIX English Patch

[@TheChaosDragoness]

Marluxia: Do you want to scream? Me: Bad touch! Bad touch! STRANGER DANGER!!

[@NightNinjaTFOA]

Lol!

[@Technowhy]

Sora, don't go near the Flowery male!!! he's dangerous!!!!

[@reduwu7602]

+Sf-A2 riku lmao

[@Bravidunno]

+Sf-A2 riku Like Flowey ?

[@Technowhy]

BraviJNEP In this world, it's KILL OR BE KILLED >BD (but yes, exactly like flowey-- XD)

[@MysticEle]

These videos always blow me away. Both the editing and the ease you seem to have while fighting make these all the more badass.

[@everglowKH]

;)

[@adamhussain7541]

I LOVE Larxene's english voice actor. They did such a great job in Re:CoM

[@Name1045]

Maybe Square will just use this video as reference when localizing 2.5...

[@HanMew]

I see you didn't wanna add all the voices for when they get combo-hit. GYEAHGY-GY-GY-GY-GYEAH

[@Friendly_Neighborhood_Qrock]

XD"""""" . . ,

[@KevinEontrainer381]

That "Do you want to scream?" was spot on!

[@doofnetwork6197]

Personally, I prefer your dubbing over the official one that's out now.

[@Roxas2099ZX]

I agree.

[@tales858]

I can never stop watching this. Well done.

[@Sandy-ik1ic]

I'm kind of disappointed that in the English version of this game, the Organization members don't actually say all of the things that they say in the Japanese version. Battle-wise at least.

[@Chibi_Rikka]

Wow, this was really good. Props for all the hard work you put into this.

[@JKamron-1]

OMG THIS LOOKS FREAKING GORGEOUS. THE HD IS ABSOLUTELY PHENOMINAL. KEEP THIS STUFF UP MAN.

[@TheVagabondGadite]

You sir, are a fucking KEYBLADE. MASTER.

[@Yuki12688]

This is beautiful ; - ; Thank you so much for this! I honestly hope they don't get lazy and keep the Japanese sounds in 2.5 remix.

[@Nar0xias]

Finally someone who agrees with me! I need to fight the Data in English! NOT JAPANESE!

[@doofnetwork6197]

With what we got, they might as well have kept the Japanese voices.

[@meh9705]

Lexeaus' Power. It's LITERALLY OVER 9000!!!

[@seemangalbj]

Wow. This is really well done!

[@MasterJunior93]

12:55 If Lexaeus's power has no limit, then why doesn't his power level show the infinity sign?

[@Bravidunno]

+MasterJunior93 Good question... He reached his limit without noticing.

[@LinkTahuterasuSpirit]

because he was Exagerating

[@Bravidunno]

Link Tahuterasu Spirit (Lixkn number: XLVII) Yet I still smell hypocrite in him.

[@mauriciogarcia4795]

I know I'm years late to this, but I did see this video when it first came out, I just never commented on it. But at 15:10, is it just me, or does Vexen's voice distort a bit and become demonic when he says "How do you like this?"

[@prettyrad1309]

17:24 " Do you want to scream?" o . o man he is creepy

[@MasterJunior93]

*Marluxia teleports near me and whispers in my ear* Marluxia: Do you want to scream? *I point a gun at his face* Me: Do you? *I pull the trigger and a gun shot is heard*

[@davidcoyle6287]

I see you went to the Indiana Jones combat class. For this you get a like. It's anticlimactic, but makes way more sense than a frenzied battle where time is of the essence and your sword can literally turn into a gun by absorbing a duck.

[@TheNoMoreHero672]

David Coyle Wat.

[@davidcoyle6287]

Wisdom Form. Keyblade turns into a magic SMG by absorbing Donald Duck.

[@mechaman5000]

Surprise twist *Marluxia laughs aloud*

[@cellco11]

This is amazing. It may not look like a lot of work, but it is. Thank you for putting together such a great video. You never disappoint.

[@jassielrodriguez3919]

Holy, you sir are a true keyblade master. I hate that your a beast at kingdom hearts. Teach me your ways

[@0meg4f3n1x]

Oh my god... That must have been sooooo long to edit everything. Amazing work as always man, keep it up!

[@bossmanager6978]

Everglow...you never cease to impress us :D

[@elitesensor7223]

That was perfectly fitted, kinda felt like this is what 2.5 will sound like!

[@gtmodelt]

Everglow8444, the next time you fight Marluxia in final mix, can you get Lord of the Castle to be the theme for the fight?

[@soraskingdomstar1]

Great videos like always evergrow! Man, I can't wait until Kingdom Hearts 2.5 remix, finally no more looking for video on youtube about these epic boss battles, no more of me having to go back to play re:COM and battling the bosses there with the card system, the gloves are coming off (no more using the cards). I know the battle won't be easy, Larxene, i love and hate ya, your my first target in these battles, bring it on! 2014 is going to be a splendid year!

[@JadendayZero]

gezz lol lexaus is badass. he just grabs sora's neck (i believe) and just slams him into the wall. brutal as fuck.

[@JackintheMox]

Not to mention when he throws him up then smashes his sword on Sora's back, and sending him into the floor so hard it actually causes tremors.

[@maddox1811]

This vid pumped me up for KH 2.5 remix even more than EVER!!!!!!!!!

[@realguy5O]

as always: epic Vid!

[@ninjabot16]

His power level! Its over 9000!

[@KeybladeMasterAndy]

You added the voices in Sony Vegas, huh? Speaking from experience with editing, that must be a big challenge. Well done!

[@Orchestrafanboy19]

Well, one good thing came from Google+, I can finally type out all of what I want to say. First off, 20 seconds in, and you could've fooled me into thinking this was legit. You have done several of these videos, and all of them have impressed me. Second of all, the voice actor for Marluxia, Lexeaus, Zexion, and Vexen in Japanese are all the same person. Just letting you know. How do you do this? It must take forever to add the sounds to the right spots and make them say what you want. Great, I have no limit on what I want to say, and I can't think of anything. Oh, Thamauturge. I've seen those videos you mentioned in the description a long time ago. People with their dirty minds... Regardless, this video is incredible. I can't wait to watch your walkthrough for KH HD 2.5 Remix. I know you're going to do awesome stuff with it.

[@osdanova]

8:30 Omg those reflexes! Great job as usual Everglow! I like the English voices :D

[@SpankSandwitch99]

I'm a big fan, a Very big fan of yours, from the Pacey days to now, and I have to say, we are all so lucky to have you. Having said that, I'm totally envious and kinda hate you. Not like legitimate HATE, but seeing so much amazing content from your videos really makes the games kinda pale by comparison, but still, it's a good thing. Double edged sword basically (tikitikirevenge's retelling of the Majora's Mask story gets the same double edged treatment). But in all whole hearted seriousness, I love your videos, and wish I had your (or your friends') prowess with doing these kinds of things, especially with this series. But watching your creations is more than enough. Sadly, I really doubt that 2.5 is going to have the English voices for these battles, mostly because Square Enix is not a company I have a whole lot of faith in these days. But having seen what you've done, I wish they would so badly... Thank you for just being you, for being so cool, so skillful, for being a Kingdom Hearts Fan, probably the most impressive Kingdom Hearts Fan, and for sharing it all with us... just, Thank You.

[@everglowKH]

Awww you're making me blush!

[@SpankSandwitch99]

:)

[@yummypie20]

***** question, how come when you are all the way at your lowest after being hit. then you are hit again multiple times but still survive from different attacks. for example 15:53

[@D-Up242]

Chaahat Dhawan Second Chance and Once More.

[@InsideTheFro]

16:46 Right in the kneecaps.

[@Sondaze]

I wonder if everglow, cyberman65, and keytotruth would ever play together now that would be an awesome video 😂 Maybe when kh3 has multiplayer.

[@AxelValentineTV]

I think the world can't handle that yet. Too much awesomeness

[@t.wood01]

Not to mention Bizkit.

[@Axel-sg9tz]

Timon Wood Oh man..Bizkit can kick anyone's ass at Kingdom Hearts anyday! I wonder if it would be a challenge for the rest like Everglow,KeyToTruth,Cyberman65..

[@AxelValentineTV]

Cyber played 2FM on critical with out taking damage and holds the World record for Critical Level 1 on HD 2FM and PS2 2FM

[@Axel-sg9tz]

raiderz0mbie Woah! Wait..he completed the game without taking damage? or defeated the data battles without taking any damage?

[@MultiOwyn]

Larxene: Merge Zexion: Dispel (when Zexion's real lexicon's HP is at 1), Struggle, Reset (after freeing self from the book curse in the Illusory arena when the real lexicon is nearby) Lexaeus: Mega Impact Vexen: Struggle Marluxia: Restore Count (front), Aerial Strike (back)

[@scalerzodiark]

for larxene they should of used her English voice but used her Japanese laugh for 2.5

[@dearrenjun]

You did really good job! :)

[@Blakeelder1]

Lovin all these videos man! Keep it up!

[@D-Up242]

When did Zexion ever say "I can't wait to see you choose!" I don't remember him saying that...

[@Nar0xias]

Me too, I think when Riku gets the cards back there was that one Zexion Soul Eater card that stunned you, maybe that was when he said it.

[@Rukifellth2792]

I prefer your dubbing of Marluxia, Vexen, and Zexion. Larxene and Lexaeus just didn't feel right since their power up yell/laughs weren't there.

[@stomyn]

I love how Lexaeus screams "MY POWER HAS NO LIMIT!" just as it reaches its limit

[@Xo-3130]

Then Sora beats him XD

[@xgray2012]

Unbelievable!!! I am actually amazed.

[@manfredzwick5278]

You guys are amazing, that is what I always wanted, Final Mix completely in english, great work!! And Square Enix makes us wait for this how long again???

[@MasterJunior93]

1:46 you should have kept Larxene's Japanese maniacal laugh right here. It actually captures her sadistic side and her lust for destroying Sora.

[@102xxScorpionxx102]

They scaled her up well in this. Hardest part of chain of memories was trying to fight with that damn card system. The second you ran out...

[@AbstracktAlias]

Great video. But I mostly came in here to compliment you on your thumbnail for this video. Really, it's well done.

[@TheLordofHelven]

You could be the kingdom hearts master

[@PrincessofKeys]

I saw both 1.5 and 2.5 in Game Stop right next to eachother!

[@keyboy2332]

I saw it too bit at Wal-Mart. Couincidence? I think not.

[@ImmaNort]

It's funny is that around 2015 someone did make a patch for the Com Organization memebers to have English voices with them saying battle quotes and not just grunts.

[@sdp271]

9:21 - "It's over NINE THOUSAAAAND!"

[@SuperHothead14]

I find it awesome that for all but the last one you ended in limit form and thus sora was in his CoM colours in the ending cutscene.

[@FloofPuppy]

I heard that it was confirmed that this HD remake would have all the Organization members have english voice clips. So yay. =)

[@binkyboy448]

Oh, they're done by the English actors all right, but...

[@Kingdom850]

They're the same grunts that the Japanese actors made, just in English.

[@jonathanjimenez495]

3:10 FINALLY DONALD

[@steamedrice97]

Nice job! This cannot have been easy! Still, I think that even if they have the English voice-overs return to voice them in 2.5, they'll probably only have grunts and laughter like in the original Final Mix+, just with their English voices instead (I'm probably being redundant). Personally, I always thought it was more ominous and fitting for the absent silhouettes to be incapable of speech, but this was still very enjoyable. Ya gotta love how Marluxia starts teleporting for every swing of his scythe later in the fight to the point where he's practically playing tennis with himself and Sora's the ball. I just noticed how the limit break quotes for these members in 358/2 Days are taken right from their battle quotes from RE:Com.

[@williamwyant1336]

Imagine if Lexaeus had been voiced by Patrick Warburton. Just think about it.

[@mechaman5000]

KH has to be one of the only series where I prefer English dub over Japanese dub

[@mitchydrake]

this is how sora really does the battles like you are sora lol

[@josephgerber7160]

Who knew that books could hurt so much

[@carlosvillegas4740]

you remnd me of me when i used to play kingdom hearts 2 with all that mastery of yours

[@drob6964]

Man I wish I could be as good as you in Kingdom Hearts.

[@xcelron1580]

The COM members now have their own reversed medals in Unchained X.

[@lirimspahiu1086]

I hope they dub the fights like you did

[@NotSoraXIII]

7:02 i've never heard this voice line before, where it's come from?

[@jakecsmith2000]

his power level is OVER 9000!!

[@MasterJunior93]

11:27 I actually liked Lexaeus's Japanese voice during his rage assaults sequences.

[@dzilo]

I want the KH 2.5 HD Remix now!!!!

[@scalerzodiark]

not gonna lie Zexion's English voice, super sexy ;)

[@desmondmalone438]

+scalerzodiark the voice of tuxedo mask

[@Bltzstorm]

It's funny how when I first got this game, I never switched my keyblades. So I beat the entire game on all modes like three times before my cousin pointed out that I could switch my blades. In retrospect, I feel pretty stupid.

[@metaknightguyWII]

I hope square enix at least re-use the RE:CoM voices in the data fight in 2.5 or redub it because this video is a dream come true

[@victoramaral5419]

You are AWSOME!!!

[@melonlord4088]

i cant wait for this game to come out!! :O

[@flipnoteSquarePuP]

XD in the Lexaeus battle when donald hits him with his little wand and it does such tiny damage! lol poor donald!

[@xardennamikaze3960]

lexaus his power level is over 9000!

[@Mazarakian]

I'm really sad that Marluxias "drown in ever blooming darkness!" quote didn't come out at any point. easily his best quote and would have fit so well for his ultimate.

[@LALOKILLER17]

Hunter Wallace he does say it in some parts actually

[@reduwu7602]

Me:*Replies to comment asking a question" Person:"Oh I know, I just finished the story!

[@estebantheguy611]

Great job, I know why you didn't put Axel because he's already dubbed in English. Overall this was great, I hope they do dub the organization members in English for 2.5

[@mastertjt56]

Nappa: Vegeta what is Lexaeus' power level? Vegeta: ITS OVER 9000!!!!! Lexaeus: I WILL CRUSH U

[@CaptainCJ97]

Your videos are epic

[@ryuumajin]

Hoooooooo... so instead of redubbing like the FM in PS2, they just use the voice track in Re: COM, huh? Clever, Squeenix. Clever.

[@kuramijuno2482]

Everglow did that. originally they were just grunts

[@SonnyFRST]

Man i know this one is old but... IT'S OVER 9000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! XD

[@Sora4277]

I hope they do the same in kh 2.5 : )

[@Grzester23]

Goku: My power is over 9000! Lexaeus: Bitch please, my power is over 100 000! xD

[@hieijaganshi8125]

Hey bro, is there any way you could compile an ISO with your DUB voices of the Org. XIII Members and upload the game for us? Because I really liked your job man, could you do it? And if you've done already, can you send me the link? tks

[@R0B5e55or001]

I imagine if doing the KH1 battle with Sephiroth but with GN's voice dub instead of LB's.

[@Loyyid]

Congratz everglow you were right :D

[@zacharyeverett5127]

You kick some serious ass!

[@randerdamer5597]

always when i read hungergames books and comes a part where is foxface in my mind will came larxene :DD

[@justin103190]

awesome!

[@princesschameleon4517]

ITS OVER NINE THOUSAND~~~~12:17 - 12:57

[@zacharypipino9582]

14:15 Vexen: I have analyzed all your data. Me: But the bar isn't even full yet. This can only mean one thing. Haaaaacks

[@Bravidunno]

+Zachary Pipino He didn't say it.

[@zacharypipino9582]

+BraviJNEP sorry it was 13:58

[@Bravidunno]

Zachary Pipino Ah okay.

[@Bravidunno]

Zachary Pipino And edit the main comment.

[@ctirado305]

Awsome!

[@samireland54]

There was I guess in the final mix version you actually get to pick instead of it being random

[@TheVenXIII]

Nice

[@mikevitti772]

You know something? I wonder if there will be a "no-voice" glitch for the CoM Org. XIII members (In KHHD1.5, fighting Sephiroth then pressing restart would cause his grunts to disable). I hope not.

[@Bravidunno]

There's just one thing missing : Re:CoM 13th Struggle as music, and Scythe of Petals for Marluxia.

[@MoonDivaX]

99,999?! Lexaeus NEEDS to calm the fudge down!!!! LOL

[@Hedgehog3342]

I can't wait to fight the absent silhouettes. i'm saving them for last. hahaha

[@zRyder_]

i swear i saw antiform in the drive menu

[@YungTimeWeaver]

you can get it to appear on the drive menu using cheats

[@ironlion9736]

YungTimeWeaver I thought that was just a Final Mix thing

[@auralyss]

Bless Bleu This is final mix on the computer, with english dubs. KH2 final mix comes out for PS3 users this year *2014* so we get to play it without dubbing and lots of installation! Yaaay!

[@jakomioftherose2434]

Hunter Lewis Really? Yahoo!

[@rubenromero2140]

No, it's up there.

[@AxelValentineTV]

When Larxene missed Sora, it sounded like she yelled damnit

[@roxasuzumaki6628]

missing like that better be glad she's not a dude

[@Nar0xias]

Lol! I totally got that, cracked up.
