I never could have explained it better why the games don't work with me
OP
OP
KH3 is all about the New Princesses of Light, so the Disney worlds are almost as important as they were in KH1.
OP
OP
In the manga, Sora went back home in the populated Destiny Island. But his family isn't shown. He immediately takes a boat to the playground island lol
Official recap
That one will also be in KH3
It's explained as that heartless except for Ansem don't have a special form. They could have been one of the countless heartless that Sora and co killed.
They could of just been random nobodies that we defeated or some people speculate that they defeated their own heartless when they became nobodies/were the bosses in other games.
First sora steals his key blade and now the girl, riku cant catch a break.
We probably did at some point. They were probably just cannon fodder.
The Disney worlds are just what makes up the universe there. There was never an "excuse", it's just like that
The simple answer is the heart of all worlds.
However, it didn't even appear until BBS. The Kingdom Hearts in KH1 is an artificial one formed out of the hearts of a bunch of worlds taken by the Heartless. Similarly, the Kingdom Hearts in KH2 was made of hearts released whenever a Keyblade defeated an Emblem Heartless.
But the one in BBS and X is the real, natural Kingdom Hearts.
Yeah I mistyped.
They still have their memories from when they were nobodies which is why they may choose to refer to themselves that way. Don't think the infection bleeds into the somebody as Axel is fine. They may have just given themselves back over.
OP
OP
I guess some of this we'll have to play first to see, but I don't buy that excuse at all. Having memories of another life doesn't excuse them ignoring their real name that they were known for a majority of their lives. Doesn't make any sense. And how do they control their respective nobodies then?
We don't know what really happens when they reform with their new bodies. They could easily still have the powers they had but be reunited with their hearts.
Probably because they were the Nobodies for a while and enjoyed the person they become and what they had become. Their original names were who they were before and just because they are in those full forms again, they may simply prefer their new selves.
OP
OP
Xehanort used his ridiculous OPness to snatch the darkest dudes in KH history from their time, possess them, and use as a replacement of the original Org. XIII. That even includes past versions of himself. Like Ansem and Xemnas
The chirthy(sp?) thingy and technically ventus,marluxia and larxene right?
OP
OP
I was totally tracking with KH until the end of DDD when the time travel stuff happened. Now idk what's going on but I'm still day 1, baby.
What is Marluxia's role even now? I saw him in a KH3 trailer for a bit, but I'm lost as to why he's still stalking Sora? He was my favorite Org. member so I wanted to know.
I'm not really sure, do you know about his role in Union cross?
Kingdom Hearts talks about the existence of many worlds. It happens that those many worlds are from Disney. I believe that instead of creating many worlds for a game, that's why they went to Disney and use the many franchises they have.
OP
OP
No. Didn't get into Union Cross much.
Oh! I read that but wasn't sure if it was related. Cool.
The returning Org members are all Nobodies again. This was confirmed by a Famitsu interview back in June.
Edit: The ones that were part of both the new and old Organization, I mean.
OP
OP
The idea was that nobodies, being empty, could just have a heart put in there no problem
^This is partly wrong. Sora doesn't wield a keyblade because of Ventus'. He possesses the ability to wield *2* because of Ventus' though.
Sora is special because he wasn't bequethed a keyblade. The keyblade's he initially has was meant for Riku(bequethed by Terra), but goes to Sora instead because Riku's hearts wavers in the darkness. The keyblade "decides" to stay with Sora in Hollow Bastion when it sees the power of Sora's heart. Because of this, he's specifically the Keyblade's chosen one instead of chosen by any previous master.
I believe Kingdom Key is mostly just symbolic of Sora. It's by far the keyblade that looks the most like a key, and he is called the key in many ways through out the story.
Key to solving whatever big problem is going on and being a key to opening and saving people's hearts. I think KK just represents that.
Riku later gets his own keyblade back when he once again becomes worthy. Whether this keyblade is the keyblade he got from Terra and the one Sora wields is a new/different one for him isn't really specified, but ultimately doesn't matter.
It's the heart of all worlds and all people and ALL things. As such, it is very powerful. Summoning KH involves a conflict between Keyblade wielders (Keyblade War) so that an item known as the X-Blade can be called forth. It is through the X-Blade that KH can be accessed. Xehanort's motives are a little multifaceted and confusing IMO but it seems to be in two parts:
1- Xehanort was interested in the War of the past and wants to recreate it to see what lies in the aftermath.
2- Xehanort wants to summon KH so he can use the power to make the world as he pleases. He seems to believe that the realm has too strong an affinity with Light. If Xehanort gets his way he would likely plunge everything in Darkness.
I'm sure KH3 will make his intentions more clear.
For all you who have skipped a game or two, or simply has no fucking idea what the hell is going on with the series ridiculously expanded lore beyond KH 1 and 2.
Now you can ask and get your answers before KHIII comes out!
And before you ask, Kingdom Hearts is like a door but also a moon
Add a retrospective video to your first post. It'll give new people a way to catch up.
After KH2 Isa was revived and reappeared with Lea and Ansem's Apprentices at the lab in Radiant Garden, but they were all unconscious. Young Xehanort soon arrives by his time travel fuckery to grab Braig, and they also decide to snatch Isa up as well.
So the only former Organization members who are still their normal selves are Dilan, Aeleus, Ienzo, and Lea.
This is wrong. Vanitas is explicitly from the present according to Nomura and has been resurrected.
Same with all the former Organization members aside from Xemnas.
OP
OP
Wait what? I completely missed this.
I thought he was taken down in BBS but then snatched from time before his demise by young Nort
We don't know yet. Nomura just said that Vanitas has been resurrected and isn't time-traveling. He's from the present day.
Nope. He's been rezz'd according to Nomura. We just don't know how yet.
OP
OP
Huh. I thought the question of why Isa was working with the Org was going to be a big one.
