    since canonically the different keyblades are actually just changes in appearance brought about by attatching keychains representing the wielder's memories, the presence of platform exclucive keyblades with the color sceme of their console implies that Sora is aware that he is a video game character and knows what platform the game is being played on.

    • @k96man
      @k96man 2 ปีที่แล้ว +20

      I'm not sure if Sora smart enough to come to such a conclusion, then again he doesn't have to understand it for it to be true

      More plausibly, his heart is connected to the platform and he's completely oblivious to it.

    3:28 Chocobo keyblade to me was supposed to represent the OG Buster sword from Final Fantasy 7. Yes it look like they just added a slab of metal but when you look at it closely you can easily compare it to the buster sword because the buster sword was a huge chunk of steel that was really good to use. I put that on the A tier because it showed representation of the creator all time favorite which is final fantasy 7

    @randymarshislorde 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Bond of flame is my biggest pet peeve with KH2, its easily one of the coolest keyblades in terms of both appearance AND story significance. It's literally Axel's chakrams linked together in the game that arguably has the 2nd biggest focus on roxas, and IMO there was a ton of missed opportunities for key blades in KH2 in the same theme as bond of flame.
    What I mean is that each org 13 member should have had a key blade themed around them or their weapons. But also I think each keyblade should give you access to a MINIMUM of 1 new unique ability. I dont mean like the abilities we got either, the passive bonuses are nice, but I mean that each one should have a unique spell or reaction command tied to it. For instance, bond of flame could have had a unique fire spell which you could only cast and slot while using that key blade. Something like a giant fire tornado or several pillars of flame, similar to the apocalyptic flame spell Sepheroth uses in your fight with him in KH2.
    There are tons of cool ideas you could throw on different keyblades, others could be left with just the normal bonuses, but canonically speaking, Keyblade weilders, even noobs like young (KH1 and 2) Sora, are like universal power level guys. They travel through space and time and fight everything from basic heartless, to soul devouring abominations, to even the gods and titans of various worlds. Its a common occurrence for them too, they fight opposition like that daily.
    The fact is that they're busted strong, particularly at magic, I know they arent technically wizards or sorcerers, but thats only because they focus on quicker combat magic instead of long-winded incantations or complex rituals, in terms of just raw magical power, they're all in the top tier right from the jump almost (it took Sora like 2-3 years to catch up to Donald, and he's one of the strongest wizards in history. Needless to say, there are a LOT of story related reasons to give Sora access to more spells than he gets.
    KH3 definitely moved in the right direction by giving us the ability to level up key blades, though some of the transformations were a miss for me, and removing drive forms was just... Well it wasnt a great idea IMO
