If Kairi got her hands on the Keyblade instead of Sora, things would be completely different. *Sora is gonna get slayed by Xehanort*

[@NoahRogers19980618]

I would actually like to see that happening now 👏👏👏

[@KingdomAce]

LOOOL

[@NoahRogers19980618]

sorry for spam Ace, just thought about another What If. “What if Sora kept his original cat like design and his original chainsaw sword in a universe”. Pretty much like an alternate universe/world-line.

[@KingdomAce]

hmm i remember this on stream, id have to ponder it

[@zbaksh101]

That would be a cool hook for a Kingdom Hearts/RWBY crossover. Sora is a faunus.

[@slateoffate9812]

What if Riku kept the Kingdom Key as the main character, while Sora was manipulated by Meleficent?

[@reidpattis9478]

Also, in this universe, Namine never existed, so the whole chain of memory plotline would be SO different. Also, would Kairi even go into the castle in the first place?

[@KingdomAce]

Hm, yeah you're right. No Namine means no CoM plot so im curious how Marluxia would try to get the power of the keyblade

[@danisle4379]

We NEED THIS!! 😎

[@Belgiumdoesnotkickas]

there wouldn't even be a chain of memories story, the nobodies wouldn't even be that strong of an organisation since lacking a nobody keyblade master. Also the only way to get a nobody keyblade master was to inject the heart of a keyblade wielder in to the heart of another keyblade wielder and then make that person a heartless/nobody. The reason for that is seeing many nobody's were keyblade wielders before and they lack the power to wield one in their nobody form. I'm guessing in that alternate universe the Master of masters would have written a different prophecy with the organisation being a different one than the one we know now today and with a totally different goal since lacking the power to capture hearts because of Sora, Xion and so forth. Axel wouldn't be a keyblade master since he wouldn't have gotten the same change of hearth he did because of Roxas. The main reason Axel became a wielder was to save Roxas his friend when becoming a somebody again. If kairi would have vanquished Axel, he would have returned to his somebody form but would lack the drive to become a keyblade wielder since there is no drive to save Roxas and stuff. If the goal was to have light clash with the 13 darknesses it would fail so Xehanort would have done a totally different thing with a different objective since there wouldn't be 7 keyblade wielders vs 13 hearts of darkness.

[@danisle4379]

@@Belgiumdoesnotkickas So many implications!! I think there could still be a COM storyline, but you're right that there's no Roxas or Xion in this storyline.

[@masterofmastersmaster2991]

KingdomAce I would assume that maybe Kairi gets kidnapped or even killed by the organization causing Sora to have to go on a DDD like journey to awaken the power of Waking so that he may return her lost heart but providing him with Namine as an ally along the way too. Either that or Roxas and Namine could be replicas of Sora and Kairi respectively, by the organization. The replicas eventually grow their own hearts and betray the organization just as before. Way to think outside the box though man, keep it up!

[@ADL21]

I'd replay KH1 as Kairi with a keyblade any day. this was so great!

[@Shojoboy]

I would love to see more Re-Write ideas. I do like seeing Kairi as the main character, but I would've given her Minnie and Daisy instead of Donald and Goofy. But that's just me, other than that this idea was great

[@teoakio1902]

I'd rather have soras keyblade be shooting star, but starlight is just as good. Awesome video btw

[@KingdomAce]

yeah i was trying to find a nice keyblade that i thought would be easy to photoshop and that was the first i found xD and thanks so much! it really means a lot!

[@slateoffate9812]

Ven's original keyblade could've been Starlight.

[@zacoryal]

@@slateoffate9812 Technically, since he was present as a Dandelion, yes, it was. He in fact DID have Starlight before he had Wayward Wind, due to every child with a Chirithy naturally having Starlight. (You could say his Starlight BECAME the Wayward Wind.)

[@zarks-heroes]

Well I think he should have the ultimate keyblade because I think it’s his kingdom then the kingdom key

[@fennekinflameboy1020]

This Alternative Kairi is being Kingdom Hearts’s Spider-Gwen

What if Kingdom Hearts characters had last names?

[@wholockedholmes5600]

What about Axel becoming Xemnas’ right hand man instead of Saix. And Saix ends up becoming friends with Roxas and Xion? His reaction to everything may be different just cause of how different his personality is from Axel’s but he still will try to Roxas back from Sora in some way.

[@Cabolt44]

Considering Kairi was accidentally chosen by Aqua, the Kingdom Key was bound to choose her if she ventured out first. As for Sora getting a keyblade, it makes sense, considering his heart is bound to Ventus. That scene at the Keyblade Graveyard is a direct reference to the ancient past, and distant past of Ventus.

[@KHloreExpert]

Spoilers for Union X if you're not caught up: Not exactly sure when this video was posted relative to the game update that first revealed this but X Ven wields Missing Ache which is also an obtainable Keychain for Player's Starlight so it stands to reason there could be more of it lying around the Graveyard.

[@ejelecflametails6657]

Am I the only person who wanted to see what it would be like to see Sora Riku and Kairi stay together for the entirety of KH1 and see how fate changes there?

[@alixiong7007]

This is Pretty good what if story for kingdom hearts series. Wanna see like wonder What would happen if xion and roxas roles were switch, Xion eventually having ven heart but still took same appearances of young kairi from sora memories but is not a replica in this version xion is sora actual nobody, Roxas other hand would takes the form of ven due to the memories Of ven heart by absorbing xion power but would have been created by vexen where Xemnas see roxas resembling to Ventus would like see this to happen.

[@aozorahaou2643]

I have an idea for a what if, Sora and Roxas' hearts merging making Sora and Roxas a complete being, same with Kairi and Naminé forming new beings, with their own personalities and names, but at the same time they're retaining the memories and abilities of the two pair of existences that made them at the end of KH II. Like how would this have impacted DDD, Sora's determination to bring back the hearts connected to him (with the exception of Roxas and Naminé), how would his interactions with thr Organization including Marluxia and Larxene be and that also includes the complete redeemed Organization members like Ienzo, along with Xion's returns to her senses how would that heartfelt reunion be. They can still be called Sora and Kairi as nicknames since they'd prefer the identities of their original somebody's

[@raheemaslam7363]

I can’t imagine how would Riku would react to his friends being new people entirely

What if Saix went to Castle Oblivion instead of Axel

[@randombat3477]

[@KingdomAce]

Thanks RandomBit! I appreciate it!

[@heartless2147]

Isn't the brown robed man Ansem SOD or do you mean the characters don't know who he is? Aside from that I like this story, Kairi is an actual character and an enjoyable protagonist. Her being a Princess of Heart more then makes her a perfect choice for a Keyblade since she can't fall to darkness. It makes me wonder why the other Princesses of Heart weren't given Keyblades or taught light magic, we know some like Cinderella aren't afraid to fight when push comes to shove.

[@xrarelightx]

Just watching this again and I thought of something. This means that the events of KH1 prophesied in the Book of Prophecies have completely changed within the book. Not only does it change the future, but the past might also be slightly different as well starting with the book. We won't know more about that until more about the Foretellers, Union Leaders, and Union X as a whole are revealed in canon. Something to think about for Re:Write.

[@KingdomAce]

Yeah especially if this story gets expanded. Another person commented about how since Kairi has the keyblade, Sora never sacrificed himself in KH1 and Namine was never created which would completely change the plots of ReCoM. AND it means Roxas wasnt made at that point which changes KH2, Days, and characters affected by him not being there, like Axel. And the organization never got a keyblade wielder. And it just goes on and on. Didnt even realize all this til now too Haha xD

[@xrarelightx]

@@KingdomAce Definitely! I think about What-Ifs ( I like to call them AUs) all the time! Xion possibly wouldn't have been created either. Or maybe she would have, then only she and Axel would have become friends in the Organization. Xion was a replica created from Sora's memories. Or maybe she becomes a completely different person/character. I wonder if Roxas's creation would be delayed until KH3 when Ven wakes up. He just wouldn't know anyone at all. I could talk about KH scenarios all day. XD

[@KingdomAce]

Same here xD and I pretty much do with friends and people in the community in our discord server!

[@Iamkaiivibes]

Dude, it’s been four years. You should definitely make another episode. I just came across it. It’s pretty dope.

[@couver73]

I think what could have been a nice little nod in this Re:Write was Kairi feeling as though the world of Hollow Bastion was familiar somehow. Just a passing reference that could be tackled later on since Kairi would be the primary focus of this version of events. But hey, not a big deal. This is surprisingly good all things considered.

[@monkiyaz]

Well, Aqua did grant her the ability(At least in the main timeline)... As for why she got the Kingdom Key, I don't know.

[@KHloreExpert]

For the same reason main timeline Sora specifically got the Kingdom Key despite only harboring the Heart of a Keyblade wielder rather than having been bequeathed like Kairi and Riku: Riku's Darkness was rampant and growing beyond what he could fully control at the time which was weakening the overall strength of his Heart so his Keyblade, the Kingdom Key, jumped ship since someone worthy (only apparently so in Sora's case) was nearby. This Kairi hasn't formed her own Keyblade yet and is just using Riku's first Keyblade like main timeline Sora. Edit: Whoops, just realized this comment was from a year ago. Oh well, I've already posted.

[@abbycollins4820]

I would love a part 2

[@jbcatz5]

What if Roxas never came into existence, or wasn’t mentored by Axel? Axel was the main reason Roxas developed as he did, grew the personality that made him expendable to Xemnas. By extension Roxas saying to Xion what he’d heard from Axel is why she developed as she did, investigated her origins and inspired Roxas to take his stand at Memory Skyscraper against Neomorphs and Riku. If Roxas never existed, someone else would have had to fill his position as number 13, and someone who’d be able to wield the Keyblade since no one already could do that. Maybe Riku would have been used to generate a Keyblade worthy Nobody.

[@aozorahaou2643]

That is if Riku's nobody is able to produce a Keyblade

[@kinoleogeo7998]

Neat Re:Write. So to theorize based on this story, Sora never has to use the Keyblade of Heart to release Kairi, thus Namine and Roxas would ever exist, however considering Sora has a new connection to Ansem as a heart, who gave Sora’s Keyblade at the Keyblade Graveyard, he might be secretly influenced by Ansem. Xehanort plans for every eventuality, so he may use Sora like he did Riku, releasing Ventus from his heart to create Roxas...but no Namine. Namine, who played a part in turning the tides in future, doesn’t exist, and Kairi will have to master her strength against a battle against the darkness they were fated to lose to. It is dangerous to change the past, as pieces are in place for reasons, but in the grand scheme, their are always ways fate change.

[@johanstenfelt1206]

.....okey this story hade more differences than what i would’ve expected from an “What if”/AU story, hm, though, then again, i guess this IS supposed to be a Re:Write story too, so i guess that kind of makes up for it🤷🏻‍♂️.

[@CelestialVulpine]

That was really great, I must admit I didn't expect that but that was great storytelling, I can imagine something like that in alternate universe or something. | I always had a KH Oc but like I'm still working on her I already got a voice for her and character design I just need to write a fully backstory about her that has nothing to do with Time travelling she more like a guardian angel who protects Kairi during beginning and end of kh4 her name is Cielo. Which translate to "Heaven"/ "sky" think of her as a companion like the one you see in magical girl animes. But only Kairi can see her, she takes the appearance of a 11-12 year old who is inspired by Rhyme (from the twewy) she had more of a punk look, angels are seen as Holy beings right?. But she's somewhat holy and fully aware of her flaws. I'm still working on her, but basically she wanna proven that she can gets her wing and don't fall victim to be cast down by darkness and lose her ability as a Guardian of Hope. (Ah, I suck at drawing lol) So yeah sorry about writing so much I just didn't know what else to say because this video gave me hope that maybe one day Kairi will get the character development she deserves.
