7:51 Take this in. This isn't Xigbar getting his ass verbally handed to him by Sora. This is Luxu seeing a kid that challenged his point of view and actually succeeded.
@@jamesvanitas I hope we fight him in KHML. Since Player was canonically in the Ursus Union, that means the only 2 masters he hasn't fought are Luxu and the Master of Masters.
@@pixeiotto122 I mean if you think about it, she probably wouldn't have missed him too much because she probably wasnt alive since destiny island got taken over and once destiny island got restored, she probably forgot bout sora befause of the things in Chain of memories. So maybe she didnt miss him too much. I know I'm think bout this too much.
I appreciate that Sora is at a state where he just had all of his powers taken away by Yen Sid, he has fallen into a realm of sleep so deep that it's pretty much impossible to escape, the darkness from said realm is eating away at him, and he's still able to solo Xemnas, probably KH's most powerful villain so far. And Sora still fails the exam.
Xemnas was mostly likely holding back since they wanted Sora to be one of Xehanort's vessels. I don't know all the requirements for that, but it probably wouldn't work if he was dead.
Xemnas didn't hold back, he want to weaken Sora as much as possible so why he have to hold back? Sora did his best to beat Xemnas, however whole damn Organization XIII put all effort to drag him into deep sleep while Yen Sid just sit on his seat and know nothing until everything almost too late, so Sora's struggle can only bring him to loss(fall to deep sleep) in the end. But again, Xemnas isn't most powerful villain in term of story-wise, even his twilight form kinda strong as hell because power of Kingdom Hearts but that isn't his real strength, it's borrowed power.
I think overall DDD was horribly written on Soras end. Literally has outside forces interfering with his exam, and ALL focused onto him, WHILE having someone elses heart inside him. Like I dont understand. How the hell was one supposed to see through all that shit.
For me, just watch it carefully and I would understand all important things, but for other minor details I really had to watch it many times. Thanks to its short story, it didn't take me too much time. DDD wasn't horribly written for real, but its story is too deep with plain facade and suddenly big plot twists, so it's hard to understand and can easily confuse people. For KH's story theme that make it look kinda off. It sound more fit to Final Fantasy.
+Very Normal guy well whatever the hell it was, it didnt work. It was executed in a way they that made it seem like it wanted to be deep and complex. The story provided no way of knowing how Sora fell for the organizations trap and falling to darkness slowly, when all along he was being tracked. Going from one world to another.
Honestly, this was probably a pretty good way to do a retcon. Xemnas: "I lied." Sora: "But this doesn't match the lore established in any of the Ansem reports." Xemnas: "And who wrote those reports?" Sora: "You... Did..."

While it’s debatable if this was ALWAYS the plan the series was heading in this direction since at least 2007. The PS2 remake of Chain of Memories added a scene where Axel is taken aback by the fact he’s actually enjoying himself and KHII Final Mix has Axel cry during his meeting with Roxas in the “afterlife”
Xemnas: “As your flesh bears the sigil, so your name shall be known as that...of a recusant.” Sora: “I have no idea what you’re talking about, but say it again, that was so fucking cool.”
literally what i came to this video to hear. Xemnas' out-of-nowhere opening line to his fights are so cool. I'm a grown ass man and I still catch myself whispering Xemnas lines from my childhood
I'm not so sure about the KH2 / Kill Bill comparison. & In any case, any other comparisons for 358/2 Days, KH1, KH Re: COM, Back cover, and Fragmentary Passage? 'Cause I agree with the others
"Look guys I didn't mean to call any of you all inadequate losers, I just said that to sound dramatic and make our new organization seem more menacing"
now to be fair, Marluxia, Luxord, Larxene , and Demyx were chosen do to the their past keyblade heritage, so it makes sense why he chose them. Xigbar and Saix were Xemnas most trusted soldiers so he chose them. Demyx later got benched for Xion so aside from that they were good candidates to keep around
Xemnas honestly gave the greatest speeches in Kingdom Hearts, making everyone he speaks to feel like nothing but assets and science experiments he is simply observing on behalf of his true self.
Xemnas: I've learned a few new tricks since our last battle Sora. **does the back and fourth shadow-ball thing** Sora: . . . what . . . what am i looking at exactly? Xemnas: Terrified Sora!? Sora: More so confused!
he is only person I know who uses buildings to attack people with. I wonder if it is any people inside those buildings and I feel sorry for them when the building gets sliced in half.
All the ordinary people in this world are probably heartless and nobodies by now. Not a pleasant thought imagining an entire city being overrun by the Organization and heartless, but there you go.
Just realized that the reason Xemnas can control "buildings" is because Xehanort figured out the essence of creation and destruction through his Nobody's conception and created the World that Never Was through that ability, resulting in his complete control over it's metaphysics
Nothing is also the thing Master Xehanort wants to bring Reality back to, so he can reconstruct it with Balance. Basically, so Light and Darkness cancel each other out.
Riku Falls to Darkness, Betrays the light, kidnaps Kairi, Tries to Kill Sora, opens his heart to Ansem, Keyblade Master. Sora defeats most of Organization 13, Ansem and Xemnas, Saves other worlds along the way, defeats countless Heartless and Nobodies, Not a Keyblade Master.
This cutscene literally shows why he failed to become a Keyblade Master though. If you fell to the darkness, no shot you're gonna be the Keyblade Master.
So, for Sora to be a keyblade master, he must fell into complete darkness, have someone slap his ass back to light and prove his worthy afterwards? I can feel the plot of possible kh4(if Disney is greedy enough) where Sora is the enemy of himself throughout the game.
Basically! Xehanort's simple but complicated plan is such: BBS- Watch Naruto, read Harry Potter, pull an Orochimaru, and also do like 2 side quests KH1- Absorb worlds, get Heart, but loses KH2- Absorb people hearts, get Heart, but loses Before 3D- Re-read Harry Potter 3D- Do a Voldemort but complicate it (also combine all plans to make it seem like it's not a loss)
Voldemort splits soul into seven pieces, Orchimaru body snatches several people, Stein's Gate time travel shenanigans and quantum fuckery. Xehanort - " Hold my beer "
I noticed when Sora announces about his friends, Xion and Kairi are both there. He barely knows Xion but his connection to Roxas means he would most certainly consider her a friend. And Kairi already has a keyblade in hand - Sora trusts her newfound strength wholeheartedly
I love how this whole level just transitions straight from fighting regular dream eaters to fighting the ACTUAL FINAL BOSS of KH2. And they just roll with it.
I swear I will never tire of this boss theme or this fight. It is definitely my favorite in the game and one of my favorites in the series. Xemnas will always be my villain husbando.
Xemnas: I tricked all of my organization into being potential body suits for my real master. What shall you do about it? Sora: use a bunny and skateboarding elephant to kick your ass. Xemnas: that’s an odd thing to- The rabbit and pachyderm shoot lasers and they hurt! Oh god!
I know DDD gets a lot of hate but it always holds a special place for me because it was the first REAL continuation after KH2. This boss battle against Xemnas didn't downplay him at all, it just made him all the more epic 😁
Pro Tip: Fail the Reality Shift when Xemnas uses buildingaga. If you go through with the Shift Xemnas has permanent Big Guard (no staggers.) For the rest of the fight.
Xehanort technically win, as he achive his initial goal to summon Kingdom Hearts and forge the X-Blade ... But yeah, the whole 13 Seeker of Darkness clearly got stomped by a single teen, while that said teens is also busy on carrying his useless, insignificant, irrelevant, friends ...
His body bears the the sigil (the X) and thus his name shall be known as that of a recusant (his body will no longer belong to him, but will become just another vessel for Xehanort's heart, think of Terra as an example) It's a really cool line.
I don't know why but young Xehanort is my favourite character aside from Roxas maybe it's his passive aggressiveness , his complete lack of malice , his unending awesomeness , or the fact that he kicks massive amounts of ass using time manipulation all while give badass grandiose speeches that sound cringey and awesome at the same time but while sounding so positively bored that he comes across as a cold ham unlike old Xehanort's large ham
It really just hit me now how the camera lingered on Xigbar when Sora asked if he was afraid of becoming someone else. The more old cutscenes I watch, the more new knowledge fits into the past
Guys, the Recusant Sigil has another meaning Recusant: one who refuses to accept or obey established authority. Sigil: is a magical symbol, seal or sign. Put it all together and we get a magical seal/symbol on someone who doesn’t obey/accept authority. It weird that Xemnas keeps saying that it is on Sora’s flesh when in fact it is on his shirt. However, who do we know does have it in their flesh? Saix has it on his face. What did he do to get it on his face?
Well, it's not like Xemnas want to make them join the gang again ... It's just Xehanort was like "Yo Xemnas, those guys are look like the one who appeared in my dream when I was young, let them join us please" ...
@@brandonnaylor2284 No it isn't. A revenge value is a counter that, once exceeded, causes the enemy to break out of a combo. Each attack that Sora can execute raises the value by a consistent amount, meaning that the intervals at which a boss will retaliate are *predictable,* not random. In BBS, hitting a boss with the same combo won't result in them breaking out at a consistent time. They just do what they want.
@@amanofnoreputation2164 i only had this problem versing xehanort vanitas and terra-nort because of the teleport into counter others felt completely reasonable
Best boss in kingdom hearts for me, I know that's a bold claim but, that music is just legendary compared to any other track for me, combined with the fairness of this fight (he can kill you if you don't prepare properly with some powerful attacks but if you prepare he's not too hard) and I love the mix of every mechanic in the fight since flowmotion can be really useful and dream eaters can help a lot here. A lot of the other bosses in this game are either way too easy or ridiculously unfair so when I get to this boss it's always such a thrill ❤️👍
He one shots when his lasers go around you. But a good strategy is something he says himself "Guard" HAHA. I finished him off with Roll Call sheep and Meow Bounce
The era where we're satisfied with a clueless villain that isn't intellectually advanced are over. These days, a good villain is calculating, methodical, intelligent, and profound.
What’s up with ansem the wise in simulation of destiny islands in Soras heart? What was the data given? Did Sora pass is mark of mastery? Did Riku mean His vitual self or his copy from castle oblivion when he said , “I’m leaving this here for the other me.”? Will luxu be revealed? With the master of masters be revealed? Will Eraqus return? Will the Foretellers return? Will the True villain be revealed or is it master xehanort? Who are the other seekers of darkness? Who are the legit 7 guardians of light? Is Kairi still a princess of heart even though she’s now a keyblade wielder? Will someone die indefinitely? Why is Marluxia not his human form Lauriam after being destroyed in castle oblivion? What is maleficents intent? Will we see what the master of masters box holds within? Will the x-blade be forged? Will kingdom hearts be opened? Will the union leaders of the dandelions appear? Will Ventus, Aqua, and terra be saved?
'As your flesh bares the sigil. So your name shall be known as that... of a recusent.' A: I fu**ing love this line. Easily the best line in the game. B: So Sora like the organisation 13 members has the X sigil on his clothing but he isn't affiliated with them. Xemnas' line basically means that Sora is known to the organisation as someone who time and time again refuses to submit to their will despite the odds that are against him in each situation. Its a very simple line but the meaning behind is deep. (I love this kind of writing I wish we had more of it in the series)
@Zach Edwards yeah I wasn't counting the union of their hearts, mostly because I doubt Ven knew his heart was joined to Sora's (and Sora was just born so I highly doubt he knew Ven's heart was joined to his, lol).
Why does he get so mad at sora for saying my friends are my power? Lmaoo that shit hits different now, as If He knows Sora is the hero in the end of it all
Probably some kind of parallel thing. Luxu was chosen to play a big role and is practically without real friends. Meanwhile, Sora wasn’t chosen to wield the keyblade originally but he’s fine with that and has tons of friends.
7:50 This scene hits alot harder after learning Xigbar/Luxu's story. I like to think that for a moment Sora's words reached whoever Luxu possessed. That they remembered their friends and bonds. That for a single second, they fought against Luxu, rebelling against the one who had stolen their body. That for a moment Luxu didn't know if he could stay in control.
It is actually probably because Luxu has the ability to see Sora's Child of Destiny qualities, and all the Hearts he is connected to. Luxu then figures out Sora is the Singularity which is why he pushes Sora in KH3 to "find the Hearts joined to Yours." It is a Chosen by the Master of Masters.
The voice actor of Xemnas is hands down one of my top favorite voice actors in the Kingdom Hearts franchise.

Ouchi ouch.
Ending this battle with Sparkga and Sora shouting "Light!" is so poetic!
XEMNAS VOICE IS SO SLOW,,,,
It's like asmr-
Also Xemnas is hot.
And sooo deep
SAME.....aaaaaaaa
Same! *tips hat*
and that is why is named can be spelled as Mansex
That's how he managed to nort Aqua.
Xehanort is cheating at this 13 vs 7 thing.
And he still lost
Technically he won and pretty easily. Terranort and a heartless cloud wiped out the whole team.
Of course the seven guardians of light had to cheat, the 13 seeker of darkness cheated too
Xehanort cheated traveling in time to achieve his goal, I see it balanced that Sora could do the same thing honestly.
Xehanort technically win, as he achive his initial goal to summon Kingdom Hearts and forge the X-Blade ... But yeah, the whole 13 Seeker of Darkness clearly got stomped by a single teen, while that said teens is also busy on carrying his useless, insignificant, irrelevant, friends ...
8:32 I can't explain it, but I really love this line.
His body bears the the sigil (the X) and thus his name shall be known as that of a recusant (his body will no longer belong to him, but will become just another vessel for Xehanort's heart, think of Terra as an example)
It's a really cool line.
@@davidgn40 i know what the line means i just could listen to xemnas say it for hours.
@@tux9240 hell yeah
@@davidgn40thanks because I was confused
Xemnas: Transcending history and the world. A tale of souls and swords eternally retold.
I don't know why but young Xehanort is my favourite character aside from Roxas maybe it's his passive aggressiveness , his complete lack of malice , his unending awesomeness , or the fact that he kicks massive amounts of ass using time manipulation all while give badass grandiose speeches that sound cringey and awesome at the same time but while sounding so positively bored that he comes across as a cold ham unlike old Xehanort's large ham
Or maybe you just like pain *flashback to Mysterious Figure from BBS* yeaaah that wasn't exactly fun.
8:07 Xemnas: One moment, Sora. Let me grab these buildings first before our battle.
*rebuilding darkness of the unknown be like*
16:33 Kingdom Hearts 3 taking so long to happen, even with Time Travel Xehanort still knows jack about the game smh
5 years of development is NOT long.
i had so many oh shit oh shit moments when i saw xemnas appeared i loved fighting him in 2 and again in DDD it was such a good fight
It really just hit me now how the camera lingered on Xigbar when Sora asked if he was afraid of becoming someone else. The more old cutscenes I watch, the more new knowledge fits into the past
This is so cute watching a rabbit and elephant as your sidekicks beat down one of KH's badasses. 😂😂😂
And after 5 years we now know xemnas is technically fighting 3 keyblade wielder at once .
" *As your flesh, bares the sigil, so your name shall be known as that... of a recusant...* "
The key of destiny
Cool evil monologue
Soras got himself an x tattooed
8:57
Elephant: "Don't worry Sora, I'm coming ol' buddy ol' pal."
11:02
That laugh...... so creepy yet epic!!
I love how the music is like a remix of Xemnas' theme from KH2.
Xigbar and Xemnas should have double teamed Sora.
But Xigbar is running away.
Yaoi level madness
Um this game is for children
Don't feel my inappropriate mind with these....Fantasies.....
"Xigbar and Xemnas should have double teamed Sora"
Pure Boy: Oh boy that would be a cool fight !!!
Fujoshi: *nosebleed*
Young Xehanort:good night sora
Sora:Good night Numbuh 1
Young xehanort:*genuine confusion*
Sora looks like a baby.
Mychal Taylor a baby looks smaller than that lol
Xemnas just looking at Sora with the SMUGGEST grin. Then being so annoyed when he hears the obligatory friendship speech.
At this point everybody is annoyed and want him to shut up before he could finish that speech.😂
"As your flesh bear the sigil".. I wonder what that means..
Nick Strife He was talking about how Sora had the sigil ("X") on his clothes, which meant he was going to be possessed by Xehanort.
ThecompanyofSunshine it was also what they used to track Sora through his adventures in the worlds. That's how they were able to follow him around.
Guys, the Recusant Sigil has another meaning
Recusant: one who refuses to accept or obey established authority.
Sigil: is a magical symbol, seal or sign.
Put it all together and we get a magical seal/symbol on someone who doesn’t obey/accept authority.
It weird that Xemnas keeps saying that it is on Sora’s flesh when in fact it is on his shirt. However, who do we know does have it in their flesh? Saix has it on his face. What did he do to get it on his face?
Kristin Glenn lmao when xemnas was spinning the letters of Isa's name around him, the X hit him in the face
XD
Weakness of trust made some previous members inadequate to be part of the 13 Seekers of Darkness, yet they recruit two who were traitors.
Well, it's not like Xemnas want to make them join the gang again ... It's just Xehanort was like "Yo Xemnas, those guys are look like the one who appeared in my dream when I was young, let them join us please" ...
WOW i forgot that birth by sleep and Dream drop distance have the most inconsistent hitstun ever...
It's literally random -- enemies are actually programmed to break out of the already floaty and terrible combos *for no reason!*
Days would like a word with you.
@@amanofnoreputation2164 that's called a revenge value
@@brandonnaylor2284 No it isn't. A revenge value is a counter that, once exceeded, causes the enemy to break out of a combo.
Each attack that Sora can execute raises the value by a consistent amount, meaning that the intervals at which a boss will retaliate are *predictable,* not random.
In BBS, hitting a boss with the same combo won't result in them breaking out at a consistent time. They just do what they want.
@@amanofnoreputation2164 i only had this problem versing xehanort vanitas and terra-nort because of the teleport into counter others felt completely reasonable
Damn, the music sounds really good!
"Me? I'M ALREADY HALF XEHANORT."
jOBI ok I believe you.
jOBI That's nuts...
No. He is Luxu.
Nah he is master of masters
*h o w u n e x p e c t e d*
GOD I LOVE HOW SILENT XEMNAS IS DURING SORAS MONOLOGUE AND HOW HES JUST LIKE “hmm ok and.. continue” HIM AND ANSEM ARE THE BEST VILLAINS DONT @
5:38 Braig/Xigbar: Me? I was born an Ohtsuka. Now I'm just Ohtsuka and a half.
See ven and Roxas in the same cutscene is weird
Burnout 314 true
hahahahaHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Seeing Terra and Xemnas seems weird too
why then...? why did you lie to them and TELL THEM THEY HAD NO HEARTS!?
(my form to put the subtitles and voice)
Xemnas: because I am actually evil.
hahahahaha.
Deerling: Why so obvious, Captain Obvious?
evil as in evil just to be evil, not evil but for good reasons
Riiiiiight... *whines* let me take notes *scribble scribble* *erase* *scribble*
Because they technically dont.
It's crazy how much this single cutscene before the fight reveals.
Can we talk about how Xemnas sounds exactly like that one guy in every movie trailer?
9:47
Paul st. Peter’s best line as xemnas
4:33 and 5:47 starting from xemnas’s lower body is kind of nice
Best boss in kingdom hearts for me, I know that's a bold claim but, that music is just legendary compared to any other track for me, combined with the fairness of this fight (he can kill you if you don't prepare properly with some powerful attacks but if you prepare he's not too hard) and I love the mix of every mechanic in the fight since flowmotion can be really useful and dream eaters can help a lot here. A lot of the other bosses in this game are either way too easy or ridiculously unfair so when I get to this boss it's always such a thrill ❤️👍
He one shots when his lasers go around you. But a good strategy is something he says himself "Guard" HAHA. I finished him off with Roll Call sheep and Meow Bounce
Seeing the scene starting this video, reminded me that Sora isn't the only one being deceived here...
Funny thing is, Xemnas and by extension Xehanort were being deceived too...
@@gamermanx3096 Xigbar is such a troll XD
Xigbar is like so thrown back by Sora saying he got friends like a bully on the playground lololol
The era where we're satisfied with a clueless villain that isn't intellectually advanced are over. These days, a good villain is calculating, methodical, intelligent, and profound.
Does Xemnas sound like the announcer for SoulCalibur V to anyone else?
In fact, I believe he's coming back for Soul Calibur 6
What’s up with ansem the wise in simulation of destiny islands in Soras heart?
What was the data given?
Did Sora pass is mark of mastery?
Did Riku mean His vitual self or his copy from castle oblivion when he said , “I’m leaving this here for the other me.”?
Will luxu be revealed?
With the master of masters be revealed?
Will Eraqus return?
Will the Foretellers return?
Will the True villain be revealed or is it master xehanort?
Who are the other seekers of darkness?
Who are the legit 7 guardians of light?
Is Kairi still a princess of heart even though she’s now a keyblade wielder?
Will someone die indefinitely?
Why is Marluxia not his human form Lauriam after being destroyed in castle oblivion?
What is maleficents intent?
Will we see what the master of masters box holds within?
Will the x-blade be forged?
Will kingdom hearts be opened?
Will the union leaders of the dandelions appear?
Will Ventus, Aqua, and terra be saved?
Too many questions.
Kh3 is about hear so all will be answered
KH3: Yes
For as brutal hard this fight was, I still enjoyed this to bits!
Strangely, more so than the final boss of Kingdom Hearts II...
Huh.
'As your flesh bares the sigil. So your name shall be known as that... of a recusent.'
A: I fu**ing love this line. Easily the best line in the game.
B: So Sora like the organisation 13 members has the X sigil on his clothing but he isn't affiliated with them. Xemnas' line basically means that Sora is known to the organisation as someone who time and time again refuses to submit to their will despite the odds that are against him in each situation.
Its a very simple line but the meaning behind is deep. (I love this kind of writing I wish we had more of it in the series)
Damn thanks for explaining the meaning behind those words. When i first heard it i fealt a cold chill
7:44 Sora include Xion in his friends despite the fact that he barely saw her 15 minutes ago and don't even know her name.
I think that's the point.
He also included Aqua, Terra and Ven but barely knew any of them. Hell, he hadn't met Ven at all until KH3.
@Zach Edwards yeah I wasn't counting the union of their hearts, mostly because I doubt Ven knew his heart was joined to Sora's (and Sora was just born so I highly doubt he knew Ven's heart was joined to his, lol).
@Zach Edwards my bad, misremembered them as a single event
9:14
when he says "thunder" is that a KH1 voice clip? Or did Haley Joel Osment just have a voice crack that made his voice high pitched like in KH1.
Kh 1 Thunder sounded much more higher
I love the fact that now that we know Braig is Luxu all of his reactions to Spra's speech have a whole new meaning
Why does he get so mad at sora for saying my friends are my power? Lmaoo that shit hits different now, as If He knows Sora is the hero in the end of it all
Probably some kind of parallel thing. Luxu was chosen to play a big role and is practically without real friends. Meanwhile, Sora wasn’t chosen to wield the keyblade originally but he’s fine with that and has tons of friends.
8:32 AS YOUR FLESH… BEARS THE SIGIL… SO YOUR NAME… SHALL BE KNOWN AS THAT… OF A RECUSANT
7:50
This scene hits alot harder after learning Xigbar/Luxu's story.
I like to think that for a moment Sora's words reached whoever Luxu possessed. That they remembered their friends and bonds.
That for a single second, they fought against Luxu, rebelling against the one who had stolen their body. That for a moment Luxu didn't know if he could stay in control.
You make it sound like the possession is kinda like a “Get Out” situation.
It is actually probably because Luxu has the ability to see Sora's Child of Destiny qualities, and all the Hearts he is connected to. Luxu then figures out Sora is the Singularity which is why he pushes Sora in KH3 to "find the Hearts joined to Yours." It is a Chosen by the Master of Masters.
18:00 the nostalgia this is y i will always love Ven forever
What I think is more interesting is that Ventus was also dreaming within Sora's heart. It's explains why we saw Aqua and Terra.
And that other girl.... XION!!!
Who?
Yeah who.
BraviNoname You're joking right?
xi...who?
this joke was worse than xion character
GOD XEMNAS' VOICE IS SO DEEP
I love sora and ventus
People complain about the story in this game, but it's actually quite simple to follow and fills in gaps in the preceding games.
The writing is rather dumb honestly.
3:06 This was forshadowed big time and only a few people caught wind of it.
Braid/Xigbar/???? was always the biggest wild card in the series.
I swear, there are those times where things are so damn well foreshadowed. And Xigbar was absolutely one of them.
I'm straight
* Xenmas speak *
Well... there goes my heterosexuality.
"As your flesh, bears the sigil..your name shall be known as that of a recusant." Shit goes so hard, my favorite quote of Xemnas
Xemnas' voice daaaamn those feels
Why the heck does Xemnas keep bringing his hand to his chest when he talks?
To fill the whole in his heart
Aaaaaasthmaaaaa 😂
Maybe he’s like Chris Evans. He talks with his heart and he’s gotta salute each time he talks 😂
I know it's old,but he has a habit to be very melodramatic. Just like how Master Xehanort is with his itchy finger gesture stuffs.
Terra grew up with Aqua who does that a lot
I'm getting a tattoo of the KH logo with the quote "my friends are my power"
I’m siting in my side yard listening to the darkness of nature, And it’s perfect.
I love this boss fight (and scene)
0:53 perfect visual and mental representation of me after seeing what this franchise has become
