Something I love about the duel with Riku on the island is how genius it is. The win-lose count affects literally nothing in the game, but OUT of the game? It makes you care. It makes you obsess. It is a perfect way to make you, the player, really feel the rivalry with Riku on a personal level so effectively, and in a way that never feels annoying or manipulative or obvious.
It’s also the perfect combat tutorial since he is super challenging. If you can reliably beat riku on the island you are good for a while in terms of combatt
@@colevakamusic He's not challenging (even on proud mode and even if you give up the shield) if you pay attention to how he works. He only ever does his kick forward after the 4th time you hit him, so if you plan for that he will literally never hit you with it and you can win easily. It just happens that apparently nobody else figured that out. I recognize patterns easily so I caught it right away as a 12 year old and never lost a fight to him after the first few. (Fun fact: Sephiroth does the same thing. He teleports away after the 4th time you hit him, allowing you to predict it and avoid his counter attack.)
@@kingofbudokai It's amazing how bad some people are at pattern recognition, especially. Modern gamers are spoiled by all the hand-holding, to the point that in the kind of games those of us who abhor excessive guidance grew up with completely confuse them. They expect a glowing light to show them the right way to go, and an in-your-face tutorial blurb to pop up whenever something new happens, and when they don't get it they fumble around. Did people really struggle to figure Riku out even back when this game first came out? I'm the same as you. My first playthrough I had five losses against Riku when I finished Destiny Islands, and that was including a failed retry of the race.
It is annoying tho how sora can be interrupted by the trees and can fall off the stage but riku cant. But hey, thats one of the many reasons why KH2's combat was far more refined
@@kingofbudokai Unfortunately, my guy, he does slightly change his pattern. However you can tech block every move he has if you felt like it. He really is a simple mechanic fight but if you're a new player then 9/10 times you're gonna lose it, especially if you aren't familiar with these types of games.
YES FRANKIE! watching you go through kingdom hearts has been so amazing and i can't wait to see more. the night you beat boat ansem was one of the most epic streams!
Goddammit, I JUST finished watching Leigh's journey and now I get to see this roller coaster from the start again?? I don't know if I can handle this so soon! Lol
Winnie the Pooh was the best part of this game, imo. You get all these intense scenes and dramatic boss battles and heart wrenching twists, you need to unwind with low stakes adventures and games with friends who love you just for being who you are, not because you are a keyblade wielder. I wish Frankie put more of those scenes in the video.🥺 Still, it was a fun ride.
Your drive and determination to kick Riku's ass at the beginning was all I needed to subscribe. I love seeing people's first reactions to my favourite series.
I’m here for the rest of the ride! The first Kingdom Hearts scared me like a Don Bluth film as a kid. Hearing that Disney worlds and characters were being consumed by darkness, the game getting gradually more dramatic in tone as it goes on. The big, epic scope and the amazing score. Especially as it got to the final worlds where the princesses warned Sora about great darkness and how we basically went through the levels of hell to get to Ansem - fighting the literal devil Chernabog on the way. And Ansem’s final boss fight in hell was awesome and terrifying, having to fight your way through and reuniting with your friends. You know how bad you’ve gotta be to still be a worthy final boss after Chernabog??
Stumbled on this video. Almost 40 yrs old here enjoying and reminiscing about one of my favorite games of my childhood. Glad you enjoyed the game as many of us.
Seeing clips of Violet, Leigh, and Jaki at the beginning of the video was so epic, not gonna lie. Looking forward to seeing more of your Kingdom Hearts journey!
I swear to god like 90% of why the race is so BS is because if you keep holding forward on the analog stick after grabbing the zipline Sora will jump off. Even beyond not knowing the route the first time you play, even just that still messes me up, lmao
So amazing to see such a resurgence in Kingdom Hearts interest. Just bought all the PC bundles myself and replaying them for the first time in years has been amazing.
Love the shout out to the other streamers I love. I can't wait to watch your journey as I've watched theirs. Welcome to this super weird fan base! We're lucky to have you! May your heart be your guiding key!
Oh my.. watching you play Kingdom Hearts for the first time was so beautiful and reminded me back when I was 8 in 2002 and experienced this unforgettable journey for the first time... All the best to you Frankie.
I've watched the first 7 minutes so far and omg, watching you play this big part of my childhood is tugging at my heartstrings more than the game already does. I'm not crushing exactly but you're so cute and the video is brilliantly edited, keep up the great work. You're bit with Riku was hysterical, I LOVED the insertion of One Winged Angel XD
I watched a lot of reactions to these series and I loved them, I didn’t know some of the people I watched were your friends, but I am now very exited to watch your journey too
I just recently discovered your channel when looking up FFX scenes( my fav FF title) I must say, I subscribed right away cause I love your energy, your video edits, and just overrall quality of your content! Watching you play KH and FF has made me love these games even more. I've grown up with them so your content adding to that love of them is precious. Keep up the great content and thank you for sharing it with us!! Definitely now a forever sub!
Kingdom Hearts 1 will always be the best part of them all for me. It's a huge emotional ride and the music hits hard every time I hear it. Kingdom Hearts 1 has the best story Kingdom Hearts 2 has the best gameplay Kingdom Hearts 3 is just a good disney movie From now on the magic of the journey will slow down a bunch.
Thanks so much for the journey! I l have watched the other 4 streamers go on their journeys and its been so much fun! I cannot wait till you start getting into the thick of it:) This game series is truly magical and hits you right in the feels. KH changed my life and I can only hope it will have somewhat of an effect on yours. There really is nothing quite like it:)
Hey Frankie. As a person who was younger than you when I played this on release... This game holds a special place for me. Watching you relieve the same experience gives me immense joy! Pleas keep making the content you do. It makes me feel ways about things :)
You probably know this by now, but I wanna point these out because they're amazing details for this game. No spoilers. I saw how far you are in the story lol. The slideshow you see in Deep Jungle (Tarzan's world) shows a castle that Sora finds to be oddly familiar. This is Hollow Bastion, but specifically it's Ansem the Wise's castle back when it was Radiant Garden, which you can see in that state in Birth By Sleep. Sora reacts to it because Kairi recognizes the castle in some way, and she was in Sora's heart. Another interesting bit is the intro tutorial, the dive into the heart. The stained glass represents a heart you are in, with the image of whose heart it is on the glass. The 3 are Snow White, Cinderella, and Aurora. If you look carefully at the colors, these coincide with the colors of the wayfinders of Terra, Aqua, and Ventus. You can even see them drop these and have them turn into the stained glass during the intro for Birth by Sleep. So, Sora is basically diving into their hearts through his unique ability to connect with hearts (as his did with Ventus when he was first born) and used it to help stave off the darkness. Darkness cannot exist in the hearts of a Princess of Light, but it was showing that they were in the clutches of darkness. These are the same 3 princesses you encounter and help in Birth by Sleep. And this can be seen later in the game. Near the end, as you're about to face Ansem where there's almost nothing left, there's a cave/hallway with details on the walls. You see bits of the worlds of Cinderalla, Sleeping Beauty, and Snow White, showing that they did indeed fall to darkness at some point between Birth by Sleep and Kingdom Hearts 1. They also had planned for Xion's creation back at this point, to some degree. When you fight the Enigmatic Figure (Xemnas) super boss, the opening scene has him walk through SOra with a flash of words going all over the screen. These are memories - memories that Xemnas sampled which aided in the creation of Xion. And right after this meeting, Xemnas ran into Roxas in front of the mansion of Twilight Town. The only case of a Nobody existing at the same time as their original self (aside from time travel shenanigans) due to Roxas' formation being the result of Ventus' heart also being within Sora's, along with Kairi and how Sora was restored. I also don't think Namine is Kairi's Nobody, exactly. A Princess of Heart has no darkness within her. She can't create a Nobody. The same would be true for Ventus. Sora was like the medium. Roxas is in Ventus' likeness, but is technically not his Nobody. Somehow this combination of 2 hearts of pure light within his own allowed for the formation of both Roxas and Namine, who are either in the likeness of or the shadow of individuals who can't create Nobodies. I'm rambling. Hope you're enjoying the experience!
Halloween town has to be one of the best worlds of both KH1 and KH2. It is simply relaxing to be there and sit around and fight heartless with the halloween clothes lol
I unfortunately can't watch your live streams as much as I wish to, but I'm so glad you edit and share on youtube, let me explain why : No matter what game you play, you're like a sunshine in this life, you genuinely make me laugh out loud, you have a contagious smile, and it makes me happy to see just how much fun you're having while playing. In a sense, I think I could say that I love your craziness and somehow feel connected to it, which is a weird thing, but a good weird thing I guess ? ^^ Anyway, I'm in a tough moment of my life and I wanted to say again how much of a sunshine you are, I like you as a streamer, content creator and human being. Keep up the good work and never stop being yourself
It's hilarious how this starts off with caution with how the others experienced this wild ride. And here I am again, smirking while watching the first reactions of another person when it comes to this lovely series. Never really paid attention how Riku got some MAD hops even before all the shit hit the fan. Goddamn. Absolute poggers, 1st-trying the race AND beating Squall, we got a pro gamer here lads. I pointed and laughed when the dolphin pushed you away from the entrance. Kekeke, one more has been added to the sobbing party~
I watched both Leigh and Violet's playthroughs and they were fantastic. Very excited to watch through yours. Boutta binge what you've got so far (up to BBS)
That moment when you lose the X-blade and Donald and Goofy leave you, only for Goofy to come back and save you, causing Donald to only come back because he’d look like an even bigger asshole if he didn’t.
i love this series so much;i still play it too this very day,its amazing how many good games got there start on the Ps2 and 2 was way ahead of its time including more content in the final mix versions of the games and more cutscenes weopons and having a boss rush arena and an extra form just for KH1 skin in the game and 3 and 3d were also really great as well i love every one deerly and i cant wait until Kingdom Hearts 4 comes out
Oh boy this is going to be an emotional journey I can already tell. And I'm honestly looking forward to seeing your playthroughs from start till finish. May your heart be your guiding key. 💙 🔑
It's so funny how you said "He's not stinky anymore" when he started trying to break free from Ansem's control because of how he later can smell darkness.
Good thing you enjoyed it, the best part is that the sequels improve EVERYTHING that the original presented so all the highs will just get higher The journey is just starting, and I am here for all of it
What a great birthday gift, literally grew up playing Kingdom Hearts and it is my favourite game. Hooo boy... Here we go again. Frankie you are in for a wild ride of emotions. This is gonna be nothing but pain (happy tears of course) :')
That was a fun watch! Being a huge KH fan from the beginning I’m glad to see more people still getting into it. Hope you start the other games soon! Kh2, BBS, DDD, COM, 2.8, KH3 😂😂 it’s a long beautifully confusing journey
Ngl, I'm rather impressed you beat that race first go at the start. Riku is pathed to take the most direct route unless you can cut him off at certain shortcuts. It is notoriously hard to get that on a blind run. Much props
As a decades long Kingdom Hearts lover, I never get tired of people falling in love with this ridiculous but sincere series. Hope you keep playing them! I’m ready for the GAAAAAAAMMES
Never seen ur vids before but I’m totally down to go through this series with a TH-camr whose new to it! I love this franchise and am excited to see your reactions

I love how everyone calls Ansem's guardian "Come Guardian". One voice line that shaped a fanebase.
Ah, yes. The protector of the nutt
The devs recognized it, too. In DDD he says 'Protect me!'
"Come Guardian"
That's what Aqua says
Then they figure out the origins of the guardian
Whenever I hand in an assignment/document online, I always hear his voice.
Ya know, "SUBMIT!"
I love watching new people get into this series. You're in for a ride.
Me too 😂
YES FRANKIE! watching you go through kingdom hearts has been so amazing and i can't wait to see more. the night you beat boat ansem was one of the most epic streams!
winning the race against riku blind is a massive gamer moment great job
her will to name the raft RikuStinks was just too powerful
It was that last jump to the star that always messed me up I love seeing people pass it though
Goddammit, I JUST finished watching Leigh's journey and now I get to see this roller coaster from the start again?? I don't know if I can handle this so soon! Lol
It's Kingdom Hearts. We all keep coming back.
@@Dragon_Lair true 😂
Also Nixypuff and SuperButterBuns.
You shoulda tried it yourself first.
I’m here from Leigh too 😂
ngl, it felt illegal to be handling clips from Frankie, Nyxi, Violet, Leigh and Jaki all at the same time
They all should start a Kingdom Hearts podcast or something lmao. I would live for that.
@@vmkblaster1 It should be called Kingdom Gals.
No, wait!
Princesses of Hearts.
@@Redxan600 Make this happen so that the Princesses of Hearts can eventually meet up with the X-Keepers! Lol
Funny I ended up watching them all thanks to youtube algorithm lol
@@gagejoseph91 BROOOO 😵💫
Riku in KH1: There can be two keyblade masters!
Literary EVERYONE ELSE: Lol.

Still, it was a fun ride.
that’s why I love the 100 acre wood, it lets us take a break from fighting heartless/nobodies/unversed etc.
Your drive and determination to kick Riku's ass at the beginning was all I needed to subscribe. I love seeing people's first reactions to my favourite series.
It's actually really nice to see that I was not the only one who cried at The Hundred Acre Wood meeting Winnie.
I’m here for the rest of the ride!

the jackisaur, nyxipuff, leighxp and permanentviolet shoutout was so sweet, all of them are so great
I have no idea why but I am OBSESSED with watching people play this series for the first time!
Stumbled on this video. Almost 40 yrs old here enjoying and reminiscing about one of my favorite games of my childhood. Glad you enjoyed the game as many of us.
Ansem : come, open your heart
Sora: I need an adult
Goofy: Hey, I'm an adult!
Ansem: nngggg...😠 (that was my line and you misspoke)
23:15 This happened to me during a speedrun, and I had never seen this happen in my 15+ years of Kingdom Hearts experience lol
Welcome to the Kingdom Hearts fandom. You're one of us now. You can never leave. Even if you want to. The games won't let you 🙂
I like how she yells out "The Rat!" When Mickey MOUSE appears.
@alexswan2975 I laughed my ass off in that moment xD
Frankie is rapidly becoming my favorite emotionally messy chaotic zoomer.
Wait, Frankie is friends with Nyxi and Leigh?
Huh. Never tought these 3 crackheads knew each other. That's really awesome.
Seeing clips of Violet, Leigh, and Jaki at the beginning of the video was so epic, not gonna lie.
Looking forward to seeing more of your Kingdom Hearts journey!
I love seeing more and more people starting theire Kingdom Hearts Journey it really got an upwind
You should feel proud beating Riku on the island in under 20 tries on your first playthrough. That's honestly pretty impressive.
Holy crap I've never seen someone beat Riku in that race on the first try, it's so rigged against new players!! XD
The game felt bad about all the Riku losses.
I swear to god like 90% of why the race is so BS is because if you keep holding forward on the analog stick after grabbing the zipline Sora will jump off. Even beyond not knowing the route the first time you play, even just that still messes me up, lmao
Omg, bro I was so ready to ragequit the whole game after losing that race! Like I almost wanted to break my controller high key 🤣
So amazing to see such a resurgence in Kingdom Hearts interest. Just bought all the PC bundles myself and replaying them for the first time in years has been amazing.
Love the shout out to the other streamers I love. I can't wait to watch your journey as I've watched theirs. Welcome to this super weird fan base! We're lucky to have you!
May your heart be your guiding key!
I'm sorry, how the HECK are you so good at doing Sora's voice and young Riku's voice???
Bruh, could've sworn this was Emilia Clarke playing for a second, lol
Oh my.. watching you play Kingdom Hearts for the first time was so beautiful and reminded me back when I was 8 in 2002 and experienced this unforgettable journey for the first time... All the best to you Frankie.

CANT WAIT TO SEE MORE OF YOUR PLAYTHROUGHS OF THIS AMAZING SERIES
Watching this made me feel like a kid again, taking me back to all those emotions & feeling nostalgic. Thank you! This game is my childhood
Let's go! Another Kingdom Hearts journey I get to watch. You are in for an amazing ride. Can't wait to see more!
Your impressions of Donald and Mickey was so good. I can barley do Mickey's laugh thing and even then it sounds like Minnie did it.
Oh boy, one hell of a deep dive to the heart you've fallen into. This will be a great journey to watch.
I love you are doing this! I love the ladies at the beginning, I watch their reactions all the time.
I watched a lot of reactions to these series and I loved them, I didn’t know some of the people I watched were your friends, but I am now very exited to watch your journey too
I just recently discovered your channel when looking up FFX scenes( my fav FF title) I must say, I subscribed right away cause I love your energy, your video edits, and just overrall quality of your content!

Keep up the great content and thank you for sharing it with us!! Definitely now a forever sub!
7:00 Woah, I had to rewind to see if it was in-game or if you were doing it, it's perfect.
Kingdom Hearts 1 will always be the best part of them all for me. It's a huge emotional ride and the music hits hard every time I hear it.
Kingdom Hearts 1 has the best story
Kingdom Hearts 2 has the best gameplay
Kingdom Hearts 3 is just a good disney movie
From now on the magic of the journey will slow down a bunch.
You're in for a crazy ride! Looking forward to following along with everyone :D
hearing the first sounds of the menu screen song from Kingdom Hearts got me like "A CORE MEMORY!!!"
Thanks so much for the journey! I l have watched the other 4 streamers go on their journeys and its been so much fun! I cannot wait till you start getting into the thick of it:) This game series is truly magical and hits you right in the feels. KH changed my life and I can only hope it will have somewhat of an effect on yours. There really is nothing quite like it:)
Besides all the other positive things I can say about this lass, her editing, and playing:
She has a future in voice acting and that's no joke.
Welcome aboard the Nomura Pain Train™!
I'm bookmarking 38:14 for how hard it made me laugh. Such a good bit of slapstick! In general, the editing of this video was so on point.
Hey Frankie. As a person who was younger than you when I played this on release... This game holds a special place for me. Watching you relieve the same experience gives me immense joy!

I’m looking to get 1 and 2 soon
new viewer here. Loving all your accurate voice impressions. That's a real talent
Just started the video
Already tearing up because of the melody at the beginning
It's hilarious how this starts off with caution with how the others experienced this wild ride. And here I am again, smirking while watching the first reactions of another person when it comes to this lovely series.
Never really paid attention how Riku got some MAD hops even before all the shit hit the fan. Goddamn.

It’s great how effortlessly funny you are.
I get to relive KH through your reaction and gameplay...thank you.
Since Dish stop streaming halfway of Chain of Memories, might as well sit in on this one and witness Frankie's magical experience.
Definitely subbing for kh content. I love watching people experience this series for the first time ☺
Kingdom Hearts has two types of feels:
Wholesome or Heartbreaking
Oh sweet new Kingdom Hearts friend this is only the begging of your Pain
Good God, you're adorable. Every one of your reactions to this game I love so much, no matter the tone, is spot on. I'm subscribing immediately
That moment when you lose the X-blade and Donald and Goofy leave you, only for Goofy to come back and save you, causing Donald to only come back because he’d look like an even bigger asshole if he didn’t.
i love this series so much;i still play it too this very day,its amazing how many good games got there start on the Ps2 and 2 was way ahead of its time including more content in the final mix versions of the games and more cutscenes weopons and having a boss rush arena and an extra form just for KH1 skin in the game and 3 and 3d were also really great as well i love every one deerly and i cant wait until Kingdom Hearts 4 comes out
IT’S TIME!!!! welcome to the cult >:)
Oh boy this is going to be an emotional journey I can already tell. And I'm honestly looking forward to seeing your playthroughs from start till finish.
May your heart be your guiding key. 💙 🔑
i always love when people start this amazing series. i am just starting the video but i hope you will enjoy the series !!

love it! Keep it up with the series!
Glad you enjoyed your time playing, this series is beautiful
Honestly I start Frankie’s vids thinking I’ll watch a bit cuz I have nostalgic love for these games, but I end up staying for these banger funny vibes
What a great birthday gift, literally grew up playing Kingdom Hearts and it is my favourite game.
Hooo boy... Here we go again. Frankie you are in for a wild ride of emotions.
This is gonna be nothing but pain (happy tears of course) :')
i played this year's ago and fell in love and to see someone play it for the first time is a nice new take on the game
Love that quick little montage of your friends dying on the inside XD
Kingdom Hearts everyone!👏
That was a fun watch! Being a huge KH fan from the beginning I’m glad to see more people still getting into it. Hope you start the other games soon! Kh2, BBS, DDD, COM, 2.8, KH3 😂😂 it’s a long beautifully confusing journey
8:39 OMG HE PULLED THE CAMERA DOWN
God it's the small things
Ngl, I'm rather impressed you beat that race first go at the start. Riku is pathed to take the most direct route unless you can cut him off at certain shortcuts. It is notoriously hard to get that on a blind run. Much props
You are amazing Frankie Lollia.
Love kingdom hearts and amazing gameplay and great reactions
39:07 You got played so hard 😂 I had that moment elsewhere. It was devastating
You sold me for keeps with that Mickey imitation! 😆 You truly ROCK Frankie!👍🙂
Welcome to this crazy ass series

WHAT YOU'RE ALL FRIENDS LMAO
Thanks for this crazy edition. I loved this reaction
I will say :
Remember "Stinky Riku" when you play/Watch Chain of Memories
:D
I've been playing through KH1 for the past week or so after finishing 2. So the timing is very appropriate
As a decades long Kingdom Hearts lover, I never get tired of people falling in love with this ridiculous but sincere series. Hope you keep playing them! I’m ready for the GAAAAAAAMMES
Never seen ur vids before but I’m totally down to go through this series with a TH-camr whose new to it! I love this franchise and am excited to see your reactions
This was so wholesome. I need more
kingdom hearts is my favorite anime game series its a Rollercoaster of emotions.
"Stinky Riku's got himself in a stinky situation!"
We're not to the stinky part yet!

"Into the bowels?? 😨
