GAME SINS | Everything Wrong With Kingdom Hearts

You sin Tarzan for being generic with his “friends in your heart” cliche, but Kairi is literally in Sora’s heart... so Tarzan is more perceptive than we gave him credit

[@derokdeathaxe6984]

@@punkgothgrlllll937 that's why some fuck up fangirl created the SR-theory (technically the acronym means Sleeping Realm...but the whole theory try to explain that Sora and Riku loves each other and Kairi is actually an evil witch who tries to bring Sora into the "real" dark-side...but the theory uses fan-made translations of interviews with Nomura, fan-made translations of the games...so basically a theory based on something poorly written and very far from canon)

[@coolgirl2044]

@@derokdeathaxe6984 So basically it's just crazy fujoshis who want some SoraxRiku action and want Kairi out of the way because she's somehow ruining their non-canon ship. This actually reminds me of how the Supernatural fangirls shipped SAM AND DEAN (even though they're brothers in the series) all because there weren't any reoccurring male characters at the time and the fangirls didn't want to ship them with any potential female love interests. This reason alone is why I didn't play the shipping game when it came to kingdom hearts but after seeing a bunch of cute SoraxKairi fan art I guess I kind of ship them now. That and also because I really like to piss off toxic SoraxRiku shippers lol.

[@stevenradford3641]

KH2 SPOILERS: Since he returns to the islands at the end of KH2, it is implied he probably visited her, which you can imagine would go into a whole recap thing if they did that cutscene. But him reuniting with her is not shown since the emphasis of these games are focused on friends more than family, at least that's what I think, because the events of Re:Coded happen between the end of KH2 (before the scene with Mickey's letter) and the beginning of Dream Drop Distance, so I'm sure Sora had plenty of time to hang with mom before his next adventure.

[@Gamer1288]

21:33 Riku REALLY comes off as a brat in this game. He is quick to believe that Sora abandoned him on little to no evidence from someone who should send off the "Stranger Danger" alarms, he throws a tantrum every time he meets Sora about him not paying attention to Riku and claims to be off to rescue Kairi when he is the one helping to hold her captive. It gets worse later on when he, as far as he know, helps bring about Xion and Roxas' deaths without batting an eye.

[@carlossoto1715]

That Dick move is right. Were Donald and Goofy really pitying Sora for ending up like that? This situation had already become so dire that everyone needs to defend themselves somehow. The fact they leave him behind means they were just leaving him to die. Or did they already know that because he has a strong heart, he can defend himself regardless? Mickey is not a cold blooded tyrant, so orders or not he can understand if they went against him.

[@pikapichu5]

"Riku sounds like a jealous boyfriend." Fitting, considering this is the only game in the series that Riku acts even *remotely* straight. Seriously, I dont think he shows any interest in girls/characters not named Sora past this first game.

[@g.s.651]

Isabella Davis You can be on team SoKai, that’s fine, and I’m sure your ship wins out canonically, sure. They’ll probably confess to each other or kiss on screen... but Sora didn’t collapse to his knees sobbing when he saw _Kairi_ again, he did that for Riku and only Riku. Both the games and the manga make Riku and Sora way more obsessed with each other than with her, painfully so on Riku’s side for the later games, and a LOT of fans have picked up on it. Soriku is actually a far more popular couple... Disney’s just got a long history of being petrified of confirming gay relationships between popular characters.

[@OathOfTheThirteenth]

"Disney’s just got a long history of being petrified of confirming gay relationships" No, they just don't force it down everyone's throat when their characters simply aren't gay. Get over yourself.

[@ReptilianTeaDrinker]

@@g.s.651 As a gay person, hearing you say that just sounds like you're shoving it down peoples throats and it doesn't help people like me. It makes us all seem like a bunch of sjws who pander gayness in everything. Sora KNEW Kairi was okay, that's why he didn't collapse to his knees, but he had no idea how Riku was doing, so he was especially worried, but he knew Kairi was alive and well. Fans and their non-canon ships, feeling the need to shove it down our throats. Actually SoRiku is a pretty hated ship. It's a ship that doesn't even make that much sense. Plus, Sora and Kairi are a much better fit and it's obvious Sora only has eyes for Kairi, and sees Riku as a friend. Plus, SoRiku isn't even close to being canon. The manga isn't canon, btw, nor is the BBS novel. Anyone "picking up on it" are just trying to find ways of making "The yaoi" happen.

[@g.s.651]

Fly High And Paint Me With A Tear I am ALSO gay, so I don’t see why you bother to bring that up, it doesn’t make your point any more or less valid. The manga not being canon is fine because the games alone still make them way more obsessed with each other than with Kairi. SoRiku being a “very hated” ship is bullshit from the Numbers I’ve seen, so citation needed. And I mean that; aside from google stats, here’s a shipping wiki that talks about how SoRiku is not only very popular, but possibly the most popular shipping and that it’s often been favored over SoKai: shipping.wikia.com/wiki/Soriku If you just mean in your circles, that’s fine, but I see SoKai hated on more than most other ships. I’m not denying SoKai is canon, that’s obvious, but it felt forced to me (and to several other people) from the very beginning, before I gave a damn about SoRiku, and saying SoRiku doesn’t make much sense does give me the impression that either you didn’t play all the games or you just don’t care for the shipping? xD Which I am fine with. And NO, because Kairi had been KIDNAPPED in that game and Sora had plenty of reason to worry for her safety. xD His reaction to seeing Riku was still far more emotional than ANY time he ever reunited with Kairi under any circumstances and if you wanna say that still doesn’t matter, that’s cool, you don’t have to accept it. That said, shipping wars happen all the goddamn time, people joking about / arguing about how their pairing is so much more valid or whatever... you getting your panties in a twist over the fact that I was arguing for a gay couple specifically-well, that’s disappointingly discriminatory of you. Shipping wars are bullshit fun, period, that’s all they should be... but acting like I’m making the whole LGBT community look bad by participating in them with my pairing of choice just because “it’s gay, oh no, we’re oppressing straight people!” Is fucking ridiculous.

All because Disney broke a contract agreement about NOT using Genie for all the advertisements of the movie. He didn’t wanna be the ‘face’ of the movie because at the time, he was the biggest named actor on the cast. He had it put in his contract that Genie wouldn’t be used for all merch and advertisements but Disney did so anyway because of william’s fame and popularity at the time and due to William’s being in another movie at the same time so they wanted to show him off and stuff. That’s why he refused to be in any games, the Aladdin tv series and the second movie. He returned for the ‘king of thieves’ movie because 1, Disney made a huge apology to him and some other stuff I can’t remember and 2, he generally loved and missed playing Genie.

Then again, we would lose a decent party member. 29:50 Hang on, what? That's not in any origin I'm familiar with. Granted, I never read/saw the original play, but you'd think I would hear something about that. Where did you get that idea? ---Also, no comment about Tink showing off her butt and panties to Sora? 30:39 Well, not quite, if the rose is still alive, as it turned out to be in KHII. 34:18 Actually, it's because of his skinny legs [Manga Joke :) ] 35:33 They actually originally planned to make Chernabog the final boss, but that plot thread was scrapped. The Disney Devil was still too cool to leave on the cutting room floor, so they threw him in here as an Easter Egg. 37:06 Thank you for not saying that Sora could jump back to her side, because it is obvious that he intends to not go back so he can look for Riku. Good points for you. 37:18 They aren't spin-offs. None of them are spin-offs, save for maybe KHX. Do KH2 next. Or maybe you should start with Chain of Memories since that is the next one in the series and it might give a perspective where you realize that none of what's going on makes any sense without the sequel to clarify things, while you can later say that KH2 makes little sense without Chain of Memories to set it up, leaving players befuddled either way.

[@MysteriousTomJenkins]

Honestly some changes I would make to this story is I would have Sora in normal clothes and the regular attire he's known for is an outfit he gets from Donald and Goofy, explaining the goofiness, especially the big shoes. I would also make them completely desensitized to the weirdness of other worlds so it is only Sora freaking out at every little oddity since it'd be cool to have Donald and Goofy (probably Donald morseo) be more professional and help Sora through the craziness of some of the worlds. I would eliminate the 'no traveling to other worlds' and 'no meddling' rules as they mean nothing, Sora, Donald and Goofy meddle all the time and it seems really freaking easy for people to travel between different worlds and even in actual Disney shows we see crossover like Aladdin teaming up with Hercules or Lilo and Stitch meeting up with various different Disney shows. I would show some scenes or have some dialogue that more closely explains why Sora, Riku and Kairi want to leave the islands and it could more naturally set up future games sense Kairi is from a completely different world and Riku has encountered Terra who I believe made him interested in other worlds. You could also work in that Sora just feels this urge to leave the islands to go to some specific place he can't think of, foreshadowing the fact that he has Ventus' heart inside him and it wants to return home so there is a bit more than just some bored kids making a dumb raft for no reason. I would have Ariel be one of the Princesses of Heart, Alice makes no sense and the argument "it would interfere with the movie plot" has no weight since Little Mermaid didn't have Heartless or some anime boy with a key bat. The Colosseum would have characters from previous worlds show up like the Card Soldiers, Tarzan, the Final Fantasy characters, surviving villains, etc, just everyone who is capable of fighting and not just generic Heartless, and I would at least make low poly or flat images of viewers so its not an empty arena and actually feels like a tournament and not just random battles with enemies. This would give some of the other companions more time to shine outside of their own world with the added challenge of having to fight them, making some pretty unique boss fights. For any world that is 'normal' like Tarzan, I would introduce an illusion spell Donald casts on them so people perceive them as humans so its not a plot hole that Clayton just doesn't care about a walking, talking duck. You could even have some fun with it by showing off the effectiveness of this spell by having Sora see a human Donald when he is demonstrating this and you only have to do this once because after that the audience will just assume the spell is active which is why no one reacts. I would have the gang try to use Genie's magic to try and save everyone after he is freed but he is unable to because he can only affect things in his own world and Riku, Jasmine and Kairi are offworld. This would make the characters seem intelligent for actually attempting to use a godlike being to their advantage while adding a reasonable weakness to that godlike being so he doesn't break the plot. Hades and Oogie Boogie would be more involved with the villain's plans and I would make it clear what they are hoping to gain. I assume they think Kingdom Hearts will give them godlike power or an endless army of Heartless but I can't really recall what they actually said their goal was and Xehanort just wanted knowledge (unless that was retconned in KH3). I think one more thing is I would definitely add some scenes showing Sora missing his mom so she doesn't seem entirely forgotten. Imagine how sad it would be when Sora realizes his mom is essentially dead because his world is destroyed and then later (as Dartigan speculated) we can see his mom go to his empty room and wonder why she has a child's room in her house when she can't remember a son and a big part of 2 could be when Sora returns to Destiny Island and is reunited with his mom who finally remembers her long lost son. Plots like these tend to be frustrating because they do a lot of things wrong and some simple thought can fix them or erase things that don't end up making sense.

[@ytnukesme1600]

besides your story changes here's what i would change gameplay wise. i would increase the drop rate for all the materials and balance them so that you're able to synthesis everything up to the 27th item by the time you get to hollow bastion, after you lock hollow bastion and the stronger heartless start spawning the materials required to synthesis the ultima weapons will be dropped by those heartless, that way you can't break the game by getting the ultima weapons early but also it won't be a chore to get them at endgame. i would introduce a unique boss for every world that spawn after you lock hollow bastion, those bosses will be your EXP jackpot to level 100, sorta like the golden biped statue from Nier Automata, and after you beat them and max out your character the 3 mysterious bosses, Sepheroth and Ansem will be your ceiling at this point, that way the squirrel's suggestion to revisit the other worlds would actually make sense. i would make Ansem's level scale with yours so that the final battle isn't a cake walk when you hit the level cap. i would make it so that you can recruit beast, Hercules, Jack and Alladin as well as Cloud, Leon and Yuffie and take them with you on your adventure. i would increase the party count from 3 to 4. instead of you fighting behemoth for the 100th time i would have you fighting different stages of Ansem throughout the end of the world, rather than having a final boss with a thousand phases. i would remove the dark giant from the final boss's phases, you don't need to fight him for the 1000th time. i would add a map with markers on it so that you're not lost trying to find where the next scene of the story is in a labyrinth. i would change the level design by making the worlds bigger with more spacious areas and a dungeon at every world so that the game feels more like an RPG rather than a second rate 3d platformer with bad obstacle courses.

@@SSlash There all on Earth or version of Earth except Treasure Planet I believe.

Brian Beatty but aren’t they anyways sometimes? I know Disney took Pixar but for example there is proof or connections of monsters inc and toy story coexisting, such as Andy’s door being in Monsters university, sure you can call it a cameo but come on now lol

[@Spartan-343]

@@SSlash Can't say much regarding Pixar. But most of things in the Disney Animated Canon that crossover between it's movies are just Easter Eggs for eagle eyed to catch to catch. They are not meant to be taken seriously. For instance, Belle appears in a cameo in Hunchback which can't make the two movies canon to each other as Hunchback is 4 centuries behind Beauty and the Beast time period wise. Pumbaa appears in it aswell as a stuffed warthog but that can''t be canon as it's unlikely that a warthog from Africa would end up in France in that period. Also Lion King's time period is ambigious. Another is Scar appearing in Hercules. That can't be canon as he as eaten by Hyenas at the end of Lion King. I mean frickin' Mickey Mouse appears in several movies both as a doll and in person. Disney's policy on it's Animated Disney Canon at least is most of the movies exist in seperate universes/continuities so as to avoid crossovers and the issues that would come with them all being in one single universe and to ensure the Disney Princesses never interacted with each other in the Animated Movie Canon. Although Frozen and Tangled are in one continuity/universe and could one day crossover as a result.

[@SigmaSyndicate]

14:04 I think the implication is that the Keyblade teleported itself from Sora's grip to Riku's as soon as Riku was in reach. Riku didn't take it from his hands. You could argue that Sora should've noticed, but it's pretty established that Sora is stupid enough to qualify for a learning disability, so it's not hard to imagine that he's just slow on the uptake. Riku's quip later about Sora being a Keyblade delivery boy to the real Keyblade Master is not technically incorrect.

Most of the Riku sins can be explained by the fact that Ansem was possessing Riku ever since Destiny Islands was first destroyed up until Riku was stranded in the Realm of Darkness, then pretended to be possessed by Maleficent so he could guide her into destroying the various worlds.

Its funny, when "Kingdom Hearts" opened, all that light came out and there was dark. But its said that "light" seals the "dark" in KH, so that could mean that it's that door specifically sealing the dark world away. .....At any rate though, that doesn't explain the door blazing a bunch of light in Ansem's face. lol

I wish people would stop calling non - numbered titles in the KH franchise spin - offs, when they clearly aren't and add so much (often times convoluting and confusing) plot elements. That's the mindset that makes people think they'll be alright jumping into KHIII having played only I and II. Originally one could argue that, since released on handhelds, they were spin offs, but with the release of the Re:Mixes, that point doesn't really hold up all too well anymore imo. All that said, though, 6 weeks until KHIII drops. Get fucking psyched.

[@Rikrobat]

It amuses me how often the Heartless are called creatures without hearts in KH. In KHII, it's established that the Heartless are actually the hearts left behind. The heartless beings are actually the Nobodies, as they've lost their hearts and want to reclaim them. Soooooo..... Heartless are hearts without bodies and Nobodies are bodies without hearts. Someone didn't think that one through. ;)

the Kakyoin profile picture on top of your based opinion further affirms how much of a chad you are. James Woods is a republican and that apparently makes you a spawn of the devil these days because as we all know democrats are angels who do abs-fuck'n-olutely nothing wrong. and KH was probably the result of Square Enix wanting to milk the Disney franchises they licensed as much as possible, i watched a video movie of Chain of Memories because i couldn't put up with it's garbage gameplay and i skipped all the parts with text only and no voice, you would be surprise how much the absence of the Disney parts didn't affect the plot AT ALL, i then started 358/2 days thinking it was a game only to find out they made that into a movie 😂 because Square couldn't be fucked to pack a NDS rom in their HD remix 1.6969π^2 edition and guess what, it doesn't have any Disney parts either 🤣, so yeah, i watched 2 KH movies. Square probably licensed Disney's properties, didn't know what to do with them so they gave them to that retard Nomura and told him to make a game with it and put some FF characters in to sell the series to kids who watch Disney stuff and will probably buy the game because it has Donald and Goofy on the cover.

I have absolutely no problem against this video, but you have to remember that this game has an E rating and has Final Fantasy characters talking to Disney characters. Some of the sins you give because of a "realism" factor when the game was never intended to be realistic at all. That's whats magical about this game Kids can play it but I'd say it's more aimed at the teen to adult range. And not to be nitpicky but the scene where Riku wakes up in Hollow Bastion, I wouldn't say that adds nothing. For a new time player that clears up what happened to Riku after the destruction of Destiny Islands instead of leaving them in the Dark.

[@ChildOfChaos07]

"Riku is like a jealous boyfriend." Correction, Dartigan. Riku IS a jealous boyfriend. 😂❤

[@newrealitygaming3933]

Birth by sleep had terra meet riku as a kid. Riku told him that soras dad brings them out here to play, but they are not old enough to play there alone. While they could have rowed out there themselves, soras dad or another party could have just dropped them off. Boats are pretty important on an island (fishing,transportation) so letting kids use the boat to play all day might not be ok all the time. So they were just running to the dock to get picked up. Probably saw the boat in the distance. I have solved the mystery. 1 point is required to be returned to Sora promptly.
