I know it doesn't seem like an obvious pick but Symphony of Sorcery is honestly one of my favorite world's in all of Kingdom Hearts. The music and imagery is phenomenal.
i guess Im asking the wrong place but does anybody know of a trick to log back into an Instagram account??
I was dumb forgot my login password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me
@Austin Blake instablaster =)
Thank you all so much for bearing with me as I took two years to talk about Kingdom Hearts!
Darkness can do a lot to a man...
AntDude dude
Hey AntDude, PLEASE do a review on Crash of the Titans!
You didn't you talk about the secret boss
you do know that kingdom hearts 3 is coming out next year and its been confirmed by square enix earlier this year antdude?
sup man, the reason why sora and riku are back to their kh1 size is because yen sid had to send them back in time for the point where destiny island fell into the darkness in order for them to get to the dream realm
Double the Dream
Double the Drop
Double the Distance!
WeirdoTZero and double the comment. Since you you also out this on Johnny’s Channel.
WeirdoTZero I GET IT
Try saying that 5 times fast.
So it's basically Kingdom Hearts DDDDDD ?
+TheAwesomeHyperon Damn you, you beat me to it.
There are no spinoffs... Every game is canonical to the story.
Every. Single. Game.
Talmage Hassell Recoded was a spinoff
And now it looks like it's becoming more important thanks to the new KH3 trailers lol.
I was actually referring to the new Big Hero 6 trailers, with the Blox and Data Riku and such.
Even the original phone game? Is that canon too?
Also, spin-off does not mean non-canon, it means not a main title, so in that respect, yes, CoM, 358, and coded are all spin-offs. Canon, important to the story, but not main titles.
@@13nrandom The OLD old phone game for the V-cast or whatever that was? Yeah, no that's not canon lol. The current phone game is, though.
As far as spinoffs go, though, I'd say the only ones that could be considered spinoffs are 358/2 Days and Re:coded, because they don't star Sora and aren't *quite* as integral to the main plot as Birth by Sleep, which I'd say is a prequel, and not a spinoff. Dream Drop Distance is in no way a spinoff, however, and neither is Chain of Memories. CoM is a direct sequel to KH1, and DDD is a direct sequel to KH2. That's all just how I see it, though.
"Why do I have the urge to play Sonic 06?" got a huge pop out of me, absolutely perfect!
The Golden Bolt's Game Reviews hey bolty
Hey man!
Once I watched SomeCallMeJohnny’s video and saw you were in it, I HAD to watch this one! So funny you guys did that crossover!
"Oh man, you said Birth By Sleep when you meant to say Dream Drop Distance."
I know. I made multiple mistakes in this Retrospective; figured I'd cap things off with another one. :)
We didn't mean that as a bad thing though. We just like to point out mistakes since they end up being funny sometimes.
PLEASE do a review on Crash of the Titans!
You keep saying it; this was a mistake
DO A THE WORLD ENDS WITH YOU RETROSPECTIVE
@@Nogahs all of 1 game.
antdude: what a dirty tease, I want a sequel to that game
me in 2021: patience young padawon, in due time
Looks like Johnny caught up with you finally, funny how life works huh?
I like what Johnny and AntDude did to match.
Okay so I was watching Johnny's review of Dream Drop Distance...and then he got to the drop joke...Then you showed up and I realized that your video was in the video loadout to the right. Advertising at its finest. I mean, I was gonna watch it eventually but now I'm early!
I like the sleep drop thing, it's how my sister and I take turns. I play as Sora & when times up, it's my sister's turn as Riku
+ Kingdom Hearts X Unchained is basically the beginning of Kingdom Hearts
Couldn't you take turns the normal way.
@@fightingmedialounge519 no
@@thatonethief are you his sister?
Thats probably the only way the drop system could be fun. For anyone playing solo, it's just an annoyance, even if I think it's pretty minor in the grand scheme of things.
This was my first Kingdom Hearts game, I had no idea what was going on.
Mm hmm
7:47 man oh man did this statement age like fine wine 4 years later😂👌🏾
You have to admit that the new remixed version of Calling in Traverse Town is amazing.
"Ok what should we add to this game?"
"yes"
Riolume Noctis okay, we'll make a charàcter whose name will be Y.
Yes
As silly as it is, I really like the idea of the main villain making an army of himself from time travel. Really unique
Kingdom Hearts was absolutely not the story for this though.
@@damienthonk1506 yeah you’re probably right. With everything else going on and the naming scheme it comes off as overwhelming for sure. Final fantasy ironically would make a good candidate for this concept I think.
If prefer it if time travel had been a thing in the series from the start
This is a perfect KH crossover. Also Xehanort did the whole split soul thing better than Voldemort. At least they’re people not items except Harry Potter.
PhantomHero idk I feel like the voldemort thing made more sense and was better established
But Dumbledore explains that making people Horcruxes is stupid.
And Xehanort's plan works on different metaphysical rules than Harry Potter.
...
I am such a damn nerd.
Idk, at least one of Xehanorth's pieces of his heart can't be find by just wanting to find it
Here's my problem though. Before, it was explained that relying on the darkness caused physical changes. E.g. Darker skin and yellow eyes. This was the case with Ansem the Wise because after he was banished, he basically succumbed to the darkness thanks to his bitterness towards Xehanort. With this whole splitting souls information, it seems that Ansem the Wise is also part Xehanort because of his yellow eyes.
On a side note, here's another problem I find with Xehanort's plan in this game. He said so himself that the X Blade was split into 7 lights and 13 darknesses. Fine. I can buy that. The 7 of lights has to be the Princesses of Hearts because they are hearts filled with only light. Fine. So what is Xehanort's plan? To create 13 darknesses.
...
Uh...shouldn't there already be 13 hearts of darknesses already? Why is he creating them? Isn't this why his last plan, which he admit was wrong, failed because he tried to synthesize his own instead of doing it the proper way? Yet he's not doing it the proper way anyways?
1NameGoesHere Ansem the Wise has orange eyes thought, not yellow like Xehanort's vessels.
WOAH. You and Johnny released your Dream Drop Distance videos at the same time. CONSPIRACY??
Backstory Ben Holy crap, they actually did.
🤔
they did
9:31 did you see the conspiracy is true
Backstory Ben They did conspire for that Drop joke
9:31 OH...so that's why you and Johnny uploaded this at the same time...
Oh come the hell on, you can't tell me that you and Johnny uploading DDD reviews on the same day at the same time is coincidence.
ShutUpAdachi nope
Hahahahahaha right
I mean their videos are basically a collab, they both showed up in each other’s videos, come on.
13:00 "-as Yen Sid believes that she will have an important role in the final battle"
Me, watching this after beating KH3: *laughs nervously* Riiiight, let's go with that...
Re:Mind kind of made her important.
@@ForrestFox626 I'm glad. She did all that training just to get Aerith'd? She deserved better and got better.
@@hillylabs Why is that such a common occurrence with Square games?
3:10 i want a sequel, 3 years later your wish is granted
3:40
Oh I have some good news for you
That moment when Somecallmejohnny and Antdude upload a video about the same game at the same time and you don't know which one to watch first.
Disappointed Turtle JUST LIKE PLAYING DDD!
I went with the Riku of the pair, Johnny. Just like how I went with Riku first.
@@paulollarsabaiii9824 antdude is sora.
Somecallmejohnny is riku
@@cypher838 That is what I said...2 years ago. Though I did play Riku first in DDD because eh, didn't really wanna play Sora.
What I like about the narrative is that Riku is pretty much the main character. He goes through the most development and in the end he has to save Sora and Riku becomes a keyblade master. It really gives Riku more justice to his character.
Well, considering the secret ending of KH3....I think that we'll go into The World Ends With You in the next game.
I thought at first I'd be fine without Donald and Goofy. All of the none numbered games *ESPECIALLY THIS ONE* made me realize how much I rely on them and *cherish their presence.*
I don't know why people think saving the world makes you a master , thats like saying every genius is a great teacher.
A keyblade master is not a super powerful keyblade wielder, its a keyblade wielder who is ready to teach new wielders
*so really that shit isn't important until after the damn omniverse or whatever is saved*
Nonono. A keyblade master, is a person who has mastered the potential of the keyblade. Hence why it's called "Keyblade Master." Keyblade Masters CAN make new wielders, but they don't have to.
No they don´t have to , but the title says that you are ready to have one . Thats a difference
No, they really don't. Aqua for example didn't make Kairi her wielder on purpose. It was an accident. And let's say she didn't touch the keyblade, would she be useful to the combat from KH1 to KH3D? No, because she wasn't. Ventus wasn't even a keyblade master but Sora was able to use a keyblade because of him.
The point is, a Keyblade Master is someone who has mastered the potential of the keyblade, and how to pass it on. They don't HAVE to pass it on. Aqua could've easily not passed it on to Kairi and nothing would've changed. Infact, Kairi could've just manifested the keyblade on her own like Lea did.
As I said they don´t have to , but on a personal level they are ready to have a student. Aqua and Riku are both adult enough to have a student, that makes them masters. The ritual to pass on the keyblade has nothing to do with being a teacher. Sora fails becouse he is not mature enough to be a master.
A Keyblade master itself is just a title , it comes with nothing. (except the power of waking , but we don´t know if that had really something to do with the master title) A keyblade master is a teacher or a leader if you like that more
Personally I enjoyed the complexity they added to the story, even if unnecessary and in retrospect absurd (referring to MX wanting to make 12 clones of him).
Nomura has a 13 fetish.
"Complexity" don't you mean stupidity?
“Just a mechanic thrown into bbs for the sake of it.” I am not sure if this is a joke or a mistake but I was funny nonetheless
Watching this in the year that world ends with you 2 is coming out is funny
The dream eaters make SO much more sense now.
Shoulda renamed it Kingdom Hearts HD: Hream Hrop Histance
My bias for The Hunchback of Notre Dame is definitely showing here.
Xehanort's revival wasn't confusing at all. It's simple: If someone is split into a Heartless and a Nobody, and both of them are killed, then the original person reforms.
aneonfoxtribute I'm confused though. Does the heart of a person bring them back? If not, how does destroying the nobody and heartless result in bringing back the original person? I'm not hating here, I'm just a bit confused.
The lesser nobodies actually do have personalities, and peoples problem is the logic behind destroying to seperate components of something make it whole, but it's videogame logic.
I never found the drop mechanic to be to bad, in fact, I played through the entire game as sora (for the most part ) then went back to riku. Basically felt like 2 playthroughs
It was a super optional mechanic that people complain so much about and I'll never get why.
Because it's an unnecessary mechanic that adds nothing.
You basically said that was so useless you decided not to use it. You're sayin Its only redeeming quality is that it wasn't so invasive you had to use it.
Honestly this is my second favorite game in the series
Dude this video is extremely creative. The fact that Antdude and John use the sleep mechanic to use in the video is just impressive. I really have to tip my hat to them.
Even though I disagree with them because I actually like the game and I understand the story, I have to admire the creativity. I had a good laugh.
P.S. : kh chain of memories and 3D do need to exist.
SShaBazzz Agreed :D DDD is kinda tied with Birth by Sleep for my favorite KH game, and Chain of Memories is right behind them. I actually love the (needless?) complexity the series has because it makes it fun to theorize about.
I also love DDD (but it’s probably my 3rd favorite after 2 and Birth By Sleep), but without Chain of Memories, how do we know why Sora was sleeping for a full year? Sure 358/2 Days explains this, but 358/2 Days doesn’t explain why Mickey and Riku are wearing Organization 13 robes. 358/2 Days also doesn’t explain why some of the organization members are unaccounted for in KH2. As for DDD, it will show why Kairi was at Yen Sid’s tower during 0.2 Birth By Sleep in the 2.8 HD collection. DDD also gave the plot of Re:Coded some relevancy to the overarching story regarding Pete and Maleficant, which is actually saying something since Re:Coded had no major plot relevance to the overarching story prior to DDD, but it’s not saying a lot.
Proc of the Dawn for me KH2 holds the title of my favorite KH game but it's to be expected because KH2 is my favorite game of all time. It's the only game I like better then "Custom Robo."
But I think DDD is a really good addition to KH as a whole.
And I think the same way. It's the complexity that keeps me coming back because I want to see how the fill in the plot points.
Mojo1426 exactly, each game has a crucial plot point. It's actually pretty genius.
Yeah 2 things said that aren't true. Like, at all.
1. These 2 games aren't spinoffs, no matter the explanation. They just feel different.
2. These games do need to exist because they tie in to other games and are required to get the entire story.
After watching both Antdude and Somecallmejohnny video, I love that little joke they did about the drop meter XD
So when can we expect your Neo The World Ends with You video? Also strictly enforced narcolepsy is a very weird mechanic.
Thank you AntDude for reviewing the Kingdom Hearts series. I hope your channel continues to grow and I hope you enjoy Kingdom Hearts 3 when that comes out.
Kingdom hearts Union X is really fun, I love gathering the artwork from multiple kingdom hearts games and using their flashy attacks in battle. I also really love the scene with the keyblade war.
Me too. But, I didn't finish Kingdom Hearts Union X.
Yen Sid believed Kairi would have an important role in the final battle.
Well, we know how that played out... He wasn't wrong...
I love the drop gag. Great work Antdude and Johnny.
your wish came true
neo the world ends with you is finally here
5 years later) Th World Ends With You gets not only a sequel, but also an anime series.
Antdude thanks alot I binged watched everything you did a wonderful job with these 😀👍
The world ends with you was produced by Nomura that’s why they were in this game.
Laughs* ya know NEO:the world ends with u is comming out
I’ve watched a few of these, and there are things relating to story, gameplay, the lore, background behind the games in their various forms that you must have ignored or not done the research on. The drop gauge and switching between Sora and Riku is revealed in The World That Never Was as Riku being in Sora’s dream while Sora is in the Sleeping Worlds. Riku cannot be active while Sora is awake, and once Sora falls asleep Riku can continue because he’s in Sora’s dream. It’s foreshadowed by Riku’s hoodie having the dream eater symbol on the back and Riku’s limit being him merging with his team of Dream eaters instead of interacting with them as Sora does. It make sense with the level design to a certain degree as well. In the Pinocchio world Sora gets the theme park and underwater, while Riku gets inside Monstro, where Sora had visited in Kingdom Hearts 1.
Do a TWEWY review, please
A new AntDude video on my birthday!!!!
Honestly I love this game's combat. Using cute adorable creatures bouncing off walls. Some super fun stuff.
I do find it weird that ALL of the story is put into the last world of the game. Kingdom Hearts 2 has a super story part after every 2 or 3 Disney Worlds. This game has you do the final battle then you get 3 hours of cutscenes and explanations.
The drop mechanic is super dumb though they shouldv'e done it like Birth by Sleep where you just chose one in the begining or you can switch between the 2 on the map and need to clear all of a certain amount of worlds with both characters before both can advance (A la Fire Emblem Echoes)
Was really hoping you would have the Johnny cameo as well, very pleased! Great video as well, you got a new sub! (:
That moment when you haven't played TWEWY, but you really want to, because it looks cool and fun...=(
Its a must play game believe me its worth it.
I'm sure it is. One of these damn days that game will be in my hands, you can count on it!
There is still emulator option if you can't get ir
Naw, I'm getting a physical copy, my DS collection is somewhat on the small side, and, along with Chrono Trigger, another JPRG I have heard nothing but good things about-I'm getting it. Maybe for Christmas present to myself this year, just not right now due to money problems.
Cool. Can't wait, then!
Thanks for all this Retrospective man. I haven't played this one from all KH games so it was interested to see all the story. Also how many times can we fight the same guy? Come on...But thanks for all your work man.
oh, man, didnt know this was uploaded a few days ago. i enjoyed these, antdude, i just realized you look like lowery from Jurassic world, and its awesome
Synced release of review with johnny
*WHO DID THIS*
TheJamaicanGamer Them. There's a joke in the video
Kingdom hearts lore < Kirby lore
Bluster The Benevolent lol
Bluster The Benevolent Kirby's at least subtle with its story telling
I... Don't make me choose between my favorite game serieses!
Agreed. Queen Sectonia has a really compelling character arc, even if it's in the background.
Bluster The Benevolent best Instagram page coming thru
You honestly deserve more subs and followers
You have come a long way since your Sonikdude101 days
Antdude I can't believe that you released your Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance review within a short period before Johnny posted his (UPDATE. The hilarious cameo from Johnny makes that seem intentional)
Also Antdude pretty sure Joshscorcher blood came to a boil when you said all of the bosses are easily abusable. Why? Two words. War goyle
I thought it was just a weird coincidence you both uploaded your videos at the same time...and then once you started talking about the drop meter I was all "Holy shit they're going to do a crossover in each other's videos aren't they?" and it happened and I was so very happy lol! Nice job! Great video!! Awesome joke!
Sweet crossover dude
Also just a point that out, I think it's time for you to do a world ends with you video because of the fact of the sequel coming out soon…
I legit just binged all 7 episodes of this Retrospective. Worth it.
WE NEAR KH3.
Crossovers are so much fun! Mannnn, it'd be fun do do one of these someday.
God bless KHinsider for playing KH X and loading the cutscenes I pretty much threw my phone across the room for how LONG it gets to one "important" cutscene on my own. Anyways thanks for the reviews they were fun.
I love all the "omg Johnny and AntDude dropped a video at the same time, it can't be a coincidence!" When both videos clearly show it isn't
You and Johnny uploaded the same game review at the same exact time. Some weird shit is about to go down now. Thanks for breaking the timeline now you guys
I see that all might figure. you're a man of good taste
I love the metroid on the Kirby XD
Oooh, loved that crossover! xD
Congratz for actually finishing the KH retrospective!
.. actualy, gameplay wise this is my favorite game, I just find it so much fun to kick a wall and end at the other side of the map in 3 seconds...
One day we will get that TWEWY sequel... right, guys? Q_Q
Oh thank God, you both did the Drop joke. Thank you.
I knew Johnny and Antdude releasing the same video of the game on the same day was fishy! 🤣 amazing
cool that this was a collab
I loved Tron in this game, it was my favorite world honestly.
Every time I come to a Kingdom Hearts video, I always think "Look at this ridiculous plot! Look at these dreadful mechanics! Man, the Kingdom Hearts series is just a big load of dumb!" but then I hear "Dearly Beloved" and remember that I actually like the series for some reason. Damn it's a good tune.
I love this game's plot, of course I absolutely love time travel plots.
Twewy 2 confirmed my child. Rest easy. 2021 will be our time!
Oh well, at least Axel and Neku are in this game.😍
True, dude/lady, true. Axel is cool, and so is Neku. I really should check out The World Ends With You. Didn't that game get a sequel? Also, your name sounds familiar, do I know you? Glad to see Neku and his friends in a Kingdom Hearts game, but would they ever show up again? I'm glad Neku and The World Ends With You cast were in a good KH game. Not a bad one, like Re:Com, or coded, or something, you know, dude/dudette?
YESSSS ITS HERE
I love the transition between you and Johnny. That was perfect, and I called it in my head.
God, you always crack me up. I literally have only been tagging along on your KH series but I'm sure the rest of your videos are just as great :)
I am having a weird sense of deja vu right now...
I believe the Tron thing was because at the same time of this game's release/ production, Legacy was coming out for theaters
Honestly this is my second favorite game in the series
daybreak town and twilight town PERFECT
*Dreaming and Dropping into the Distance*
10:33 You're on your own with that one
Love you wanting to suddenly playing Sonic 06.
I love this game
2:44 I agree. It looks really weird seeing Riku and Sora next to "real" people in that world, especially compared to how much better Space Paranoids adapted the artstyle of the movie with the anime design of Sora and it doesn't make sense they're in a sequel to Tron when there already was a Tron World in KH2 even with the explanation that Space Paranoids is a copy of The Grid.
I love the Metroid on Kirby lol
love how both dream drop distance review swap with each other
HE DID IT, THE MADMAN!
Wow, you and Johnny both post a video on this game within a few hours of each other..
What a coincidence. SomecallmeJohnny uploaded a video on dream drop distance as well within the same hour
Oh boy. I sure do love the dream eaters. I hope they don't turn out to be dead children.
Omg two ddd reviews in one day hell yea!
They actually revealed the Kingdom Hearts III is coming out 2018. Rumors suggest March but I imagine we will be getting some confirmation in the coming months.
