@@gaarafan89 Kairi was essentially a private straight out of boot camp went into combat against the thirteen most powerful and skilled soldiers on the opposing side; the fact she lasted so long was a miracle, I'm more concerned about how the other Guardians were handled. Let's be real here, no amount of training in a controlled environment would prepare you for the rigors of war; compared to all the other Guardians, Kairi has had nearly zero experience. Tell you what, let's see who Kairi's squad mates were: Aqua: professional keyblader who trained all her life and a veteran of one campaign and survivor of the Realm of Darkness. Ventus: professional keyblader with one campaign under his belt with potential subconscious experience from his time as a Union Leader. Mickey: warrior king with multiple campaigns under his belt and also four confirmed campaigns as a professional keyblader, extensive experience with espionage and subterfuge. Lea: professional assassin and spymaster, well versed in combat and expert pyrokinetic. Riku: civilian-turned war hero of three campaigns, later trained professionally which also doubled as an additional campaign. Sora: same as above, on top of another campaign which comprises most of KH3. Is it really a surprise that Kairi's not up to the same standards as everyone else? If people hate how Kairi didn't stand out much in combat, they might as well conplain how the early Konoha 11 aren't as powerful as the various Kage, how Avalanche isn't as powerful as Sephiroth and his siblings, how Vahn didn't start out as powerful as the Judges, etc.

How this video incapsulates the Monomyth geniusly: 1. Introduction to the ordinary world: BDG starts with a very tradition video intro. 2. Call to action: BDG cites certain comments that challenge him to explain Kingdom Hearts. 3. Refusal of the call: BDG arrogantly saying that such a task is too easy. 4. Mentor: BDG cites Campbell’s Monomyth as a source and derives the structure of the video from his work. 5. Crossing the threshold: Smash cuts to the clock in the wall. BDG begins explaining the 12 stages. 6. Tests, allies, and enemies: Pat comes in and makes Brian add several separate Hero’s Journies. He begins to panic as several games come to his attention. 7. Reaching the innermost cave: “Alright, assholes, I don’t have any space left, so here’s a data cube! Happy!?” 8. Enduring the supreme ordeal: The Villain’s Tridecagon is unleashed and elaborated. 9. Seizing the sword: Brian finishes the Villain’s Tridecagon. 10. The road back: Brian connects the stories, tying together each aspect perfect. 11. Resurrection: Brian comes across the revelation that Sora will lose. 12. Return with the elixir: Brian concludes, confident he has explained the very basic storytelling of Kingdom Hearts.

1/12 Introduction into the ordinary world: Brian comes into work on a fresh, quiet Monday morning, as if himself a spring babe, ignorant of the mammoth task about to be set before him. 2/12 Call to Adventure: “Brian, the fans are clamoring for a recap of the Kingdom Hearts storyline, and we’d better strike while the iron’s hot with only days before the release of Kingdom Hearts 3!” 3/12: Refusal of the Call: After sorting through countless fan theories and KH wiki pages Brian has a meltdown and realizes the story is completely absurd and that there’s something missing from his understanding. 4/12 Meeting the Mentor: Brian meets with his most battle-hardened Kingdom Hearts fan-friends to seek clarification for the mess that is the KH story. He only becomes more confused. 5/12 Crossing the Threshold: Brian begins making his heroes’ journey outline for the KH franchise, a task he’s all too eager to get over with. “How bad could a story full of Disney characters be,” he thinks as if to comfort himself. 6/12 Tests, allies, enemies: Brian begins to layout the heroes journey through Kingdom Hearts which seems almost a simple task, at first. 7/12: Reaching the innermost Cave: Brian rediscovers that the prequels and interquels and presequels and pre-interquel-sequel-sequels are a thing. 8/12 Enduring the Supreme Ordeal: Trying to connect all the nonsense together almost brings Brian to his knees as he discovers he is still missing a piece of the puzzle. 9/12: Seizing the Sword: Discovering the villains tridecagon; norting a boy; hilarity ensues. 10/12 The Road Back: Brian feels confident he’s finally found the variable he needed to have true understanding of Kingdom Hearts and all its lore, though truly deep down he realized he had only sunk lower into the hellish pit of madness. 11/12 Resurrection: Brian returns to work and finds a simple message on his desk, “let your heart be your guiding key.” He immediately burns it, understanding the implications it could potentially boast and his near final descent into his own world of darkness. 12/12 Return with the Elixer: Kingdom Hearts 3 is released with a 4th on the way. Brian knows they’ll want a new video when they release it after the inevitability of dozens more sequels, interquels, prequels, and prequel-interquel-sequels. But how will he respond to the call?

Right? It's kind of an interesting study in that way. KH is more of a story of parallels and (who would've thunk) connections, and how each of these more miniature journeys tie into a whole, so it's hard to tie such an anti-physical story into something as solid as the Hero's Journey.

@@takiyeet6946 Going to be a big book nerd here, but you mentioned Ulysses (my favorite novel) so here goes. Campbell's monomyth is based on his reading of James Joyce's Finnegans Wake, not Ulysses. The word monomyth is directly taken from FW, and one of Campbell's first books was an analysis of FW. So this video unfortunately won't help you understand Ulysses, but it might help a little with understanding Finnegans Wake? If you do want to read Ulysses (which I can't recommend enough) I suggest reading Dubliners and then Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, preferably in editions with footnotes/endnotes. Before reading Ulysses you should read through The Odyssey and Hamlet, though any additional Shakespeare plays can be helpful as Joyce alludes to a lot of them throughout his novel. There are many editions of Ulysses, I suggest getting one that says it is the revised edition that is the complete and unabridged text as corrected and reset in 1961 (I would avoid the Gabler edition of Ulysses). Alongside Ulysses you should try to get a copy of Ulysses Annotated by Don Gifford (I also enjoyed The New Bloomsday Book by Harry Blamires for some extra annotation). I suggest reading the novel out loud and trying to go between the annotations and the main text. It takes some getting used to, reading two or three books at once, but it is honestly my favorite book and well worth the effort!

@darekun462 жыл бұрын
@@shawnjavery This is honestly pretty standard when they don't plan for a series from the beginning. The Monomyth doesn't fit well into itself, as BDG demonstrated, so when the first entry in the series was designed as the only entry, you kinda have to use another structure. For example, when a sequel starts by making big changes, but without any dislike and kinda even returning to the first story without having its own point to make, they're using the Monomyth as the Ki and Sho of the Kishotenketsu structure. The sequel shakes things up, then reconciles the changes with the first story. As TVTropes put it: Introduction (ki) establishes the main characters and the setting they live in. Development (sho) deepens the reader's understanding of and emotional attachment to the characters. Twist (ten) introduces an unexpected and major change to the setting and to the characters' lives. Conclusion (ketsu) brings together and reconciles the first two acts with the changes of the third. However, I say "kinda" have to because KH *didn't* use another structure. That would've been too logical. Thus - ignoring the side games, which are part of the chronicle but have their own plots instead of advancing the series plot - they embedded KH1's Monomyth as the first part of the larger Monomyth for KH2. They then did the same thing again, embedding KH1 and KH2 together into a yet-larger Monomyth, at about the same point KH2 embedded KH1(since that's the least-bad fit for a Monomyth into itself). The Monomyth doesn't lend itself to this sort of "rocket staging" approach, but that's what they did.

Would you be willing to do a video on parallels between Kirby and Eldritch lore/abominations (or something along those lines)? My partner loves Kirby with all his heart, and our anniversary is coming up, so I thought I'd at least try to suggest this idea. If anyone else is interested in this idea, please thumbs-up so that Brian can see it!

I think it's worth noting that the steps of the hero's journey that Campbell came up with were less of a guide for how to write a story and more of a pattern that he noticed consistently appeared in stories and folklore. It's not how you're supposed to write a story, it's just how a lot of people have written stories.
