LUXU + YOZORA?!? | Kingdom Hearts 3 - PART 26

We now know … versus 13 is kh4 . Or the very least. Noctis . Yozora is the only part that was saved for kh4

[@ionamorwenna5564]

And now the trailer for the dlc, i want to see that reaction lol

[@mariosgreekquincy2065]

Yep i was like that too

[@marieporter9488]

Which part?

[@terrencenoran3233]

The moment I saw Shibuya in my playthrough, I stood up and gave a slow clap. The man, the Nomura, the legend, gave us the ultimate Square Enix crossover: *Kingdom Hearts Versus XIII: The World Ends With Your Final Fantasy*

[@MurderofBirds]

I don’t think so. He's definitely in "Shibuya" but not the Shibuya from The World End With You. He's in the Shibuya of Verum Rex since Yozora is there too. This also falls in line with Game Central Station world being a hub for game-based worlds, which is connected to Kingdom Hearts Union Cross, and potentially Wreck-It Ralph.

[@GcorpCoPrez]

TTsuyuki my headcanon has been that since nomura was taken off versus 13/XV project, he’s been slowly injecting the pieces he couldn’t realize into Kingdom Hearts. Heck bits of ff7 remake has some xv slowmode battle system thrown in.

[@kyngtruccie8817]

@@MurderofBirds true. But if he is in The World Ends With You it would make sense now why Joshua told Sora "See you in Shibuya" in Dream Drop. Being an angel of death, he probably knew Sora was gonna die. Plus all the characters in TWEWY are dead and playing a game to get a second chance at life. So it would make sense in context. Verum Rex being there makes sense too since he's in Shibuya also

[@SimplySwayze]

MurderofBirds I’m not so sure about that. I’d say the parallels of Sora waking up in the _exact same_ manner and location as Neku in TWEWY, along with the ‘104’ you can see in the background make it a definite possibility. Granted, I _love_ TWEWY so I’m biased :V

[@drudle]

@@SimplySwayze Nomura has already stated outright that it isn't tied to TWEWY.

[@blastortoise]

Nomura must take like 5000 pounds of weed/meth/heroine/tylonol/melatonin/etc. and then stayed up 6 days straight and wrote random words on a paper and then slept it all off and then looked back at his work and went: "Okay lets see, uh Demyx is the MoM, why does that come up on every binge? Uhhmmm we got Riku is Yozora from a different timeline which could work, Ansem comes back and helps the gang, I'll save that for later, Ava is alive well I KNEW that, duh who do I think I am, Luxu is Xigbar? That's a good drop for the epilogue."

Out of all your reactions, across RWBY, and all the games and other shows, this one video contains so much shift from genuine delight, adoration, joy, shock, despair. It's all so good. It's so great to share journey's with other fans.

[@MrAuthor3DS]

21:28 "See you in Shibuya." ...But seriously. Between Shibuya, Yozora, and maybe Luxord's wild card, I feel like Sora's next side-game is gonna be themed around _games._

[@NM-io3bk]

As soon as you saw Kairi and Sora sitting together I said “ah shit, here we go.” Cuz I knew what was gonna happen and your reaction was perfect! I was crying and screaming when I saw the ending the first time and it is such a kingdom hearts ending that’s hard to describe. Watching you play this game has been amazing and thank you for being so amazing.

[@MurderofBirds]

Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm so glad that you enjoyed the playthrough.

[@Firestar1992]

[@collaxupload8142]

Murder of bird:i have OFICIALLY finished the kh3 game Me: you sure about that cause i heard a new dlc for kh 3 is coming soon

[@-vee-7009]

Lmao Nomuras reaction to your description is "You must be kidding me did you really think?" aka *BITCH YOU THOUGHT!*

[@manlyderp2427]

I think Micky's line highlights Sora's abuse of the Power of Awakening the best. "It's not for chasing hearts around." The Power of Awakening is for diving into the heart and arriving in new worlds; worlds like the Stations of Awakening, The Dreaming Worlds, and whatever form Scala Ad Caelum was (Xehanort's heart maybe? Sora had Destiny Island in his back in DDD). Using your heart and the heart of another in order to travel to new worlds is most likely the main intent. Sora though chased his friend's hearts through worlds instead... through the WORLD'S heart. Head canon time, but I think the main difference is the scope of the heart being used for the act. Good = using a mortal heart to reach the vast heart of a world. Bad = diving into a heart larger than your own in order to find a mortal heart. I think a scaling issue makes the most sense, as it probably has something to do with the amount of darkness (maybe even light) that you are willingly allowing your heart to be assaulted with.

[@RedtheEdge]

I'm so glad that this worked for you. When I beat the game, it froze during the cut scene shortly after I beat the final form of the final boss. So I had to uninstall, reinstall, redo the whole final battle before I got to see the ending. Still congratulations man looking forward to your next game.

[@Spitfire_94]

Chances are high he's participating in the Reapers Game, which is where people go to play the game to earn a second chance at life. It makes sense since Neku says "See you in Shibuya" in Dream Drop Distance.

[@MurderofBirds]

I don’t think so. He's definitely in "Shibuya" but not the Shibuya from The World End With You. He's in the Shibuya of Verum Rex since Yozora is there too. This also falls in line with Game Central Station world being a hub for game-based worlds, which is connected to Kingdom Hearts Union Cross, and potentially Wreck-It Ralph.

[@UchaNekome]

@@MurderofBirds No, Sora is definitely in the World Ends With You Shibuya because of the 104. That is unique to TWEWY simply because the real life one says 109. HOWEVER Riku is in a different place. THAT'S where Yozora was and THAT'S Verum Rex. The problem is you're assuming Riku and Sora are in the same Tokyo, but their not.

[@Spitfire_94]

I completely forgot about Game Central Station. Still, it'd be nice to see Neku and co again, DDD gave me hope to see TWEwY crew again. Either way a Wreck-It Ralph world in Kingdom Hearts IV would be hype, I can just smell the meta humor, especially after Axel had so much fun with it lol.

[@keyblade9712]

@@UchaNekome id agree with you but nomura already confirmed in a interview that, that is not the the world ends with you. That or hes just being his classic nomura self.

[@drudle]

@@keyblade9712 Beat me to it! Nomura interviews already confirmed it isn't The World Ends With You. It wasn't ambiguous or gray when he said it, too. He said it outright. No double speak or loophole there. Now, it could be a smiliar world to TWEWY (alternate universe to it?) but it won't have TWEWY ties.

[@lappiestofdogslapdog]

Before Final Fantasy XV was FFXV, it was FF Versus 13 directed by Tetsuya Nomura. FF XV is NOT the same as FF Versus 13. XV only reuses Versus 13's characters and locations. Sora is Japanese for "Sky", Yozora is Japanese for "Night Sky", Noctis Caelem is Latin for "Night Sky" Verum Rex is also Latin for "True King"

[@arzothespiritwarrior2330]

Xigbar being luxu blew my fucking mind. Two years later and I'm still trying to comprehend it

[@BakuganChampion]

I mean I felt like Xigbar never really was a team player. He just went along with it

[@jidorimaru]

By the way... The place where Sora woke up looks like the world of "The World Ends with You". Because the scenery of the city looks just like Shibuya. And the city landscape has undergone the same changes as the game. (For example "109"→"104") The place where Riku woke up looks like the world of "VERUM REX". But the world is just like Shinjuku. If they are lucky, they can meet in a 30-minutes walk ......maybe LOL

[@MurderofBirds]

Impressive deduction skills with called Luxu from that far back. I also feel the same way about my critiques on KH3 compared to my starry-eyed first playthrough. It's been a long time coming, but there are still so many things I wish that were done differently, or better in some cases.

[@fumikomiyasaki6321]

@@MurderofBirds I can fully relate to that. Like my first playthrough was full of hype nad wait after finishing it I relaxed and then said... they could have done a lot better, giving us more answers, not more lose plotpoints, finally redeem Kairi... But well I do hope we get our answers one day. We will see what comes.^^ And also thank you, It was lots of fun watching this journey along with you as well.^^

[@drudle]

Same here! By the end of DDD I was side eyeing the hell out of Xigbar. Every other line I felt like Xiggy was letting on that he knew more than every other character did. It felt like watching a movie for the first time with someone who had seen it. "I dunno .. maybe there IS someone behind that door. Guess we'll find out, huh?"

Her catlse is where Larxene sends you and you can even tell that her castle was supposed to be explorable.

[@ViroVeteruscy]

I'll likely never understand how people go into sudden outbursts or suddenly be in tears during moments of excitement.

[@soul6733]

[@maxout705]

This is definitely a fake reaction

[@Orion_TheyThem]

Some people emote more/are empaths. I straight up cried hysterically the whole ending scene. And when Sora disappeared I started screaming at my tv. It's entirely possible. Some people just connect more with stories than other people. But I'm also the kind of person who legit bawled (Very audibly) in the theatre when I went to see Endgame.

[@endeavortabarsi5158]

I’m pretty sure that guy at the end of the secret movie is actually the Master of Masters because of what he was doing with his hands when he was looking at the moon. You know there’s a theory that the Master of Masters is actually Sora’s future self I find it kind of interesting. You should read the KH3 secret reports to know what Luxu’s role was there’s also some other interesting information in them like information on the girl Ansem found years ago.

[@MurderofBirds]

There are still two more videos on this playthrough. Reading through the Secret Reports will be the last upload for my KH3 series.
