[@lupinveil4939]

Interesting facts. Terra is the only person in the series who has canonicaly formed a lingering will. He is one of two people I can remember to be able to control his heartless. He managed to maintain himself as both a physical embodiment of willpower, and a heartless, for ten years. There is a word that springs to mind. Indomitable

[@righthandstep5]

[@Webshooters1]

A will as strong as the earth itself.

[@Evnyofdeath]

The Guardian/Dark Figure is canonically not a Heartless. It might as well be one in all ways that matter, but canonically it's just a container made of Darkness that Terra's heart was put into.

[@MCBlade2562]

Terra has to unironically be the scariest character in the series. He’s been on the main antagonist’s back for years, he’s one of the hardest boss fights ever made, and he’s even scared the shit out of the main villain of the series multiple times. He maintained a sense of self where others never would have. Even Sora needed Kairi’s help in returning him from becoming a heartless. Terra was just waiting for the right opportunity to kick ass, waited for Xehanort to believe he finally had full control over Terra’s heart and will… only to yet again be proven wrong.

[@Darbzila]

I've never been able to beat him in KH2. Lol

[@LakePlacidBear]

Terra is pretty jacked and OP. i agreed that. but i don’t think that he didn’t have any help; as seen from one of the secret ending of BBS, Eraqus did something to protect his heart during the event of BBS took place. I can’t remember what exactly he did to Terra, nor i can recall if this detail has been explained - but this might be the reason why his mind and will can stay intact for this long despite not having any vessel. it was Eraqus who had Terra’s back.

[@MCBlade2562]

@@LakePlacidBear It could also be said that he learned his tenacity from Eraqus to be sure. He did also briefly connect with Aqua in the Realm of Darkness (if I’m remembering it correctly I haven’t played 0.2 in a very long time), so that could have helped him along as well. Because what is Kingdom Hearts but a metaphor for the strength of connection with others, so those brief reprieves may have been all he needed to keep his unwavering will. Still my favorite character in the Wayfinder Trio personally, I just think he’s neat.

[@LakePlacidBear]

@@MCBlade2562 I just checked the scenes again - apparently by the end of KH3 plot, Eraqus emerged from Terra and took Xehanort with him as they were leaving. I see this as Eraqus’ heart has always been living inside Terra. My theory is that by the time Terra defeated him in the Land of Departure, Eraqus probably found a way to reside inside Terra’s body without anyone ever noticing it. Much like how Sora tried to embrace Kairi before she vanished at the beginning of KH1. I suppose by touching the other person right when they disappear, their hearts can find a host and continue to live in said person’s body. nonetheless I agreed with you totally - Terra is my favourite character too. Dude’s as buff as a freaking mountain, and amazing character development too.

[@noibatty]

This was the only scene in the game that truly had me slack jawed from amazement and happiness. Welcome back, earth boy.

[@LouieDaShortie]

The only scene that put me into more happiness, sadness, and joy was Roxas and Xion returning/crying. This was second for me

[@Modulates]

these final scenes were what brought me into it. I really didn't care much for KH3. But seeing Roxas, Xion, Axel, Siax, Terra, Ventus, Aqua, seeing them all reunite, was amazing. It brought the hype. watching Xehenort and Eraquas, admittedly, left me a bit salty at first, but I prefer it to the majority of the game. God, I love the final world. We get to see Yen Sid show up and balls to the wall several thousand heartless instantly.

[@jakomioftherose2434]

​@@RockHikari92Haha, yeah, same here. Didn't even notice it until OP mentioned it.

[@narutardkyuubi]

Fun extra detail: That’s exactly what the Guardian did in KH1 as well. ‘Ansem’ would have an attack where the Guardian would possess Sora and replace the Attack Command with a Hold Command that would have the Guardian appear right when Sora was about to attack and hold him in place for Ansem to smack down. While Ansem was almost certainly coordinating that attack at the time, it looks like Terra was taking notes and figured out exactly how to subdue a Keyblade Wielder without a Keyblade of his own while stuck as the Guardian.

Truthfully, I think all of them are capable of being solid voice actors. I mean, if you listen to some of Haley Joel Osment’s other voice work, he sounds fine.

[@drewilliams116]

[@robo-nidai4236]

So. When Xehanort took over Terra's body, Terra's heart was overwritten by Xehanort's heart. This resulted in Terra being split into two beings: The Guardian, his heartless, and The Lingering Will, his nobody. Terra's heartless was unable to reclaim his body since Xehanort was still in it, so he waited until the day would come when he can reveal himself and claim his body back. The Ansem Heartless and Xemnas are the heartless and nobody of Xehanort himself, not Terra. But because he was inhabiting Terra's body at the time, they also ended up with some of his characteristics. When the final battle arrived, Terra's heartless saw the right moment to reveal himself, helped Sora expel the fragment of Xehanort out of his body and finally reclaim it after years of waiting. Why do I have a feeling I did a better job explaining what happened than the game did?

[@geff16999]

so basically LW got beat off screen in order Terra to become whole? that's suck

[@emiel549]

The only thing to note is that the lingering will is only Terra's mind. So it's not his nobody. But other than that yeah better explanation

[@EclipseHedgehog]

It's too damn convoluted, I've been a fan since the start and when time travel was introduced it feels like a cop out. I once thought they'd just have terras fate be his armor forever as his punishment for his "crimes" like an alphonse elric sort of deal. But no the body and heart reunite after being defeated. I thought xemnas would turn back into terra since he favored him like ansem sod did xehanort down to his curiosity. Also wanted to see him with long hair, they did it with riku xD

[@rickywalters7717]

KH1, KH2, and even KH3! Perhaps his rampage continues in KH4?

[@reyonXIII]

I wonder what was going through Sora's mind when he saw this. Remember, he first saw the Guardian (or whatever it's apparently called) back on the ruins of his homeworld. Having emerged from the body that used to be Riku's. And then he fought it when it was a giant demonic spaceship. And suddenly now, it just rescued Aqua and Ven and turned on its master. All that time, he'd been fighting one of the lost Keyblade wielders, or rather, it was being forced to fight him via Ansem. He quickly put two and two together fast enough to react to give Terra the opening to take his body back.

[@dreyeezy8671]

I remember the heartbreak I had in Birth By Sleep when all these 3 were separated. I almost cried in this scene

[@axceljulio5747]

3:23 Thanks to Re:Mind, now we know why the Guardian acted on its own to save Aqua and Ventus. The destruction of Lingering Will's physical form by Terra-Xehanort unknowingly reunite it with Terra's heart, thus giving it the sufficient strength to assert control over the Guardian.

The roxas reunion was more feely

[@crocuslament9680]

@@dizralph.c I had more prior attachment to Roxas & co. but I will readily admit that his return felt contrived and something about it just felt off. On the other hand I cared far less about Terra, Aqua and Ven, but I consider this scene to be better because it doesn't rely on a bunch of minor characters doing something off screen. I only got into Kingdom Hearts like two years ago and was mostly concerned with trying to watch all the cutscene movies before 3 came out so I never heard the theory about Terra being the Guardian. When he grabbed Aqua and Ven, I was almost certain that this was part of Xehanort's plan but then he just put them down and turned back to Xehanort and started trying to pull the thing off his face and by that point I had figured out what was going on. No one had to tell me. He didn't have to explain that Eraqus did blah blah blah and then Aqua did yada yada yada like Roxas did. The Roxas scene was still great and emotional, it just had to justify its own existence to the audience before being great and emotional. This didn't have to do that because it all happened on screen for us to see and it all followed some kind of logical progression. Seeing this character I felt neutral towards overpowering this guy not because some scientists helped him but because he wanted to help his friends actually made me like all the members of the trio more than I did before watching it, whereas watching Roxas, Xion and Lea all be reunited made me care less somehow because now their problems are fixed and they get to be happy. The ideal outcome of them being together is now the status quo, and as long as that stays unchanged I'm satisfied. But with Terra, Aqua and Ven, the status quo is and always was them being happy together, while the ideal outcome is now each one working through their own issues. Aqua has to step up as a Master, Ven has to navigate the clusterfudge that is Union Cross and Terra has to... Okay, Terra's kind of done his character arc but that keeps going until his reunion with Eraqus at the end of the game, it doesn't end here. This scene isn't the ideal, emotional end of a journey, like Roxas' return, it's an ideal, emotional step along the way, the same way the Roxas boss fight in 2 is, or the end of Days, or Riku telling Ansem to go bugger off in Chain of Memories, or Sora sacrificing himself to save Kairi, or Aqua renewing her resolve at the end of A Fragmentary Passage, or Ventus and Vanitas becoming whole, or Axel sacrificing himself in 2.

"Wrong, your gonna get shown the door old man." Terra (BBS black points) Edit- I really loved how Terras quotes at the end of BBS came full circle. My only wish was that we should have got an interaction between Terra and Riku later on especially with Terra talking to Riku about he found the strength to protect what matters.

[@venobladebionicles6228]

I want to point something out about the guardian. The guardian never fights back in any of his appearances, he's always subservient in all the previous games, always following orders... until now. Why didn't he fight back? It's because the guardian had no will. It's only now, when lingering will is destroyed, that he regains his will and fights back

[@geogreysword]

personally i think this reunion was heart warming and the best part of the entire game

[@codymcadam7959]

I absolutely love this scene. Terra came back in such an epic way. Iconic moment for sure.

[@Shamiynlover1]

I'm not really a Kingdom Hearts kinda guy. 358/2 days was my only game; that might've had something to do with it. But this... "One day, I will set this right." A voice, rusty from disuse, still forced to its limits so it may declare its side. A friend so loyal, his will endured beyond all else. And a reunion so powerful it drove passive observers to actually LOVE this guy. This scene, man... this scene.

[@likeabossgaming4381]

What gets me is that Terra's first words after ripping off that bandage are the same as his last words from BBS

[@critterwhisperer5821]

[@carlossoto1715]

Even though I saw it back in BBS that Xehanort unleashed that Dark Guardian that Ansem Seeker of Darkness later uses, I never knew that was what became of Terra. All the good left in Terra remained in his armor, that contained his mind. But it was his Heart that was trapped in this creature.

[@insertcoolname.4708]

What an amazing trick really anytime Xehanort needed some kind of bodyguard or Terra got in the way all he would have to do is push his heart out of the body and in shroud him in darkness and instantly he would have his own heartless guardian.

[@shauna2559]

Im so iffy about kh3's story, as well as BBS, but the scene where Terra comes back gave me a massive appreciation for his theme. I never paid attention to it before, but hearing it start as that heartless thing came from Terranort i was like "wait WAIT THATS FUCKING TERRA" and it was so fucking hyped up i stg. Like, i began to notice the lingering will melodies in Terras theme, and when he began to repeat his last words after Xehanorts defeat and his mind being split into the lingering will, god Terra is so much cooler than I ever thought. I dont like this games story but it made me like the BBS cast more.

[@leirelarrakoetxea5747]

I confess I thought that Terra was lost forever that all that would be left of him would be his 'Lingering will' as a reminder of what could have been. That his body would be destroyed to kill Xehanort that all we would get to see would be (his heart-spirit) to bid farewell to Aqua and Ventus. Boy I tell you I've never been so happy to be wrong. ( well except when Xion was revealed I thought she was lost forever too)

The one question we never asked, why was there something around the things mouth! Gosh, goes to show you need to notice every detail!

[@leirelarrakoetxea5747]

If when fighting the shadow-Terra somone had told me *the guardian in reality is a prisioner of Ansem thus why he has his mouth gaged so he can not call for help* I would have told him that the gag was just something the designer thought to make it look more menacing man I'm glad this conversation never took place

[@thesentry3497]

I was so sad when i finished Birth by Sleep and this just felt so good to see after freaking years waiting to see them all return. Aqua and Terra have to by by far my favorite characters in KH besides Roxas.

Terra: *Can change his Keyblade into a whip, a gun, and a ship* Sora: *with a fucking key flag* hold my beer

Ahhh, it's nice to see that theory of the Guardian being Terra was right. And then that epic (You no longer control me, and no one EVER hurts my friends you bastard!) look at 3:20 and then breaks the chains.

What a journey. I remember playing BBS on my psp. The wait was worth it.

[@thelairofthedemongod]

He came back to sit things right, and he did set thing right

[@ZaiDrizzleDrop]

It really is crazy how this guy's body has been sed as the main villain for most of the series, poor dude. At least he didn't age at all, (I think?) It would really suck to lose over a decade of your life, being puppeted as the bad guy. But then again, with replicas you can probably be immortal huh. You know I just realized, replicas totally are a way to become immortal. You can either force your heart into someone else's body like Xehanort did to Terra, or you can keep putting your heart into a replica when you age. Interesting how they never address that.

[@avengersforever1723]

I love this. Friendship is sure the greatest to have

[@speedstorm0332]

Terra is way too stubborn for his own good. He managed to survive being forced out of his own body by splitting himself in half, mind and heart. Thing is, while we already know about his Lingering Will (his mind) and his Heart (his personality, everything that makes him _him),_ I wouldn't be surprised if he had a Nobody running around out there somewhere. His Nobody would have his 'original' soul. All in all, Terra's got himself a Terra-verse now. My _god_ is he persistent.

[@jabberwocky1493]

His nobody was Xemnas.

[@MetalHanyou1]

So many questions. First, isn't Ansem supposed to be Xehanort's heartless? And on that matter, wouldn't Xemnas be Terra's Nobody? So, while I can accept that Terra (as the Guardian) is kind of stuck with Xehanort, why is "Ansem" treated like his own individual being from Xehanort when he is supposed to BE Xehanort? And why is Xemnas treated as an incarnation of him, rather than what was left of Terra? And don't even get me started on Roxas, Sora, and Venitus. That's just a right mess.

[@amakeeya]

Same here. All the info over the years from this series kinda collapsed on itself.

[@gogglesveemon5551]

i believe the Guardian its actually Terra's hearthless, and the Lingering Will his nobody possesing the armor since the empty body was taken by xehanort. what happened here was Terra's heart getting control over his heartless. when Terranort defeated the lingering will (we asume since it wasnt showed but he is here) he released the nobody, and Terra here released his heart from his heartless himself, all he needed was to cast away Xehanort heart from his body, wich Sora did

[@soul6733]

The guardian is Terra heart. LW is not his nobody, because it's litterally just his armor possessed by his consciousness. Fake Ansem is Xehanort heartless and being an heartless, he got to control the guardian. Xemnas also is Xehanort nobody.

[@MetalHanyou1]

@@gogglesveemon5551 I know the Guardian is Terra's heartless. My questions were "why is Ansem treated as individual from Xehanort" and "shouldn't Xemnas technically be Terra's Nobody?" Xehanort possessed Terra, therefor the heartless (Ansem, not the Guardian) should be his own, while Xemnas (being that he had possessed Terra's body) should be Terra's Nobody.

[@gogglesveemon5551]

@@MetalHanyou1 maybe when someone gets Norted their body is no longer considered their own but more like an extention of whoever heart is inside? that was terranort created Ansem and Xenmas ans xehanort heartless and nobody respectively, Terra heart became the guardian, and he didn't created a nobody since he didnt left behind a heartless body of his own having his been claimed by xehanort heart and allready used to create Xemnas. though, the Lingering will could very easily have been Terra's nobody possesing the armor since he didnt have a body to inhabit. and thats why Sora needed to unlock terranort heart first before Terra's could enter the body otherwise it would probably have been rejected by the body

[@viniciusdatori7418]

That's the most beautiful scene of the game... Always cry when I see it.

[@LordMalice6d9]

Even before I saw this scene I always knew in the back of mind mind that there was something more to the Guardian heartless. I knew it had something to do with Terra. There have only been 3 instances in this series where a Heartless has acted with a will of their own instead of acting on a primal instinct.

[@gregwilliams4926]

This is the original Xehanort that grew up with Eraqus, fought and ruined the lives of Terra, Aqua and Ven. If they followed the rules of time travel, every Xehanort should have been vaporized. I don't think people realized how big of a moment this is.
