I'm so glad you got that passion back. Like HMK I never gave up but it was hard sometimes, and I'm so glad Sakurai came through. While it will sad if he retires, he deserves it and more.
I “gave up” after I finished playing the Ace Attorney games. As much as I love Kingdom Hearts, I wanted to see Phoenix Wright more than Sora. Still held out hope for him though and I still popped off when I saw it.
I like the little shout outside in the smash game, the picture with the duck hunt duo, Mr. Game and Watch being fought in Hollow Bastion, the sunset scene, and the whole Galeem/Darhkon background which looked so damn cool. Excited for his appearance.
I dropped onto my knees when I saw the silhouette of that keyblade. And my legs were jelly for the next few hours. This was such a cool moment when it happened and I love the new boom of people wanting to check out the games. Those "Out of context" clips and people having no idea wtf is goin on? Priceless comedy. Great video as always, and Keyhole
Keyhole. I'm so glad that you came back. I literally cried when you said you were leaving, it was like seeing someone die or felt like a part of me died. Love you noel and glad to see the main man himself return.
It's worth noting the first lyrics of Lifelight correspond with this trailer too, seemingly intentionally. I thought it was weird the fire turned into a keyblade, but the lyrics "Colors weave into a spire of flame" seem to explain what's going on there.
Keyhole, I'm happy for everyone. I never played the games but I did watch and learn everything I could about the series and I wanted sora as well so I have an honorary badge to enjoy with y'all
I have been watching your content for literally years! Tomorrow is gonna be lit! I will probably run KH1 sora and change it up every so often. Keyhole!
Keyhole and welcome back Sky . Right around the corner for the 20th anniversary . Its about to get spicy can't wait to see your reactions again and hopefully some new X-keepers videos discussing the upcoming Kingdom Hearts reveals .
I’m still processing it. I can not believe that Sora from Kingdom Hearts (specifically 2), a contender for my favorite game of all time, the Sora I’ve written entire novel-length stories about, is in Smash. Keyhole
He hasn't dropped quite yet so... "Keyhole". Glad to have you back Sky! As someone who has been struggling with getting their passion back in their hobby, I'm glad to see that you got yours!
This video made me happy af. Im literally gonna freeze when its time to choose a skin. Most likely going with the DDD or Valor form skin since I love red.
Keyhole! Me Being a KH fan since 06, since the hype that was the KH 3 World Trailers I’ve been following you and the other X-Keepers on TH-cam, it’s been a great journey and this moment of Sora coming to Smash Ultimate has felt like another big moment for Kingdom Hearts. I’m so happy that my most wanted character ever since the Fighter Ballot has come to Smash and I’ve been watching the trailer, Sakurai’s presentation, & reactions all day, every day since the day he was announced. Looking forward to the 18th to play as Sora. Also I’m mostly going to be rocking the KH2 Sora but idk shit I wanna use all the costumes in order each time I play Smash lol Number 2 & 3 Picks for Costumes after KH2 is Ultimate Form & Timeless River.
Great to have you back Noel! Been a hot minute! Sora being in Smash made me buy this game and I actually really enjoy it. I've been playing with Cloud but as soon as Sora drops he'll be my main. I can't wait to play with him and enjoy online mode with him for the first time. I'll definitely be using his KH3 skin because that's my favourite base outfit of his but I can see myself using KH2 or Ultimate Form as well. I always said if Sora is confirmed I'll pick up the game and start playing so I followed through! I have to admit he is the perfect character. I literally watched this presentation to see if it was Sora and I'm so happy it was! Smash's playerbase is gonna skyrocket simply because of our boy! Edit: Keyhole!
In honor of the Dream Drop Distance demo being the only chance I got to experience Kingdom Hearts (and cuz it looks cool), I’ll be rocking with the Dream Drop Distance alt. I’ve been wanting to play Kingdom Hearts for YEARS, but I only had Nintendo systems growing up, so I really couldn’t dive into all of the games. Not sure if I’ll commit to the Switch cloud versions, but I’m diving in someday. I’ve always been down for seeing Sora in Smash because I thought it would be such a cool addition. I’m happy that he’s here, and he deserves it as the most requested fighter. Can’t wait to have more of a connection with this character by finally playing the series for real. Also, keyhole.
Always loved the video essays how I found ya. I can’t wait for Monday. You unlocked the KEYHOLE in my heart. I’ll probably run with kh2 sora or the steamboat sora
This was a good video also I think Donald and Goofy are represented by Lucario and Falco as they are Anamorphic Animals and Duckhunt would be more Pluto #Keyhole.
Keyhole! I don't comment often on TH-cam videos, but having been a subscriber since at least my first year of high school (and that was 6 years ago, oh boy), it's great to see you back in another video, Sky!
Sky now I have to buy a switch I said I'll buy a switch if Sora gets in a smash or characters I care about. And next year's going to be great this just feels like a little sample or an appetizer for the 20th anniversary for Kingdom Hearts. I'm sad to see smash go but I'm happy that it happened.
Keyhole gang rise up! Also I'm mostly going to use KH2 Sora in Smash, occasionally switching it up with Timeless River & Ultimate Form. It's a shame they're not gonna have Final Form as a skin or his final smash, that's my one big gripe with Sora's announcement, but for the most part I'm just glad someone I actually wanted made it into Smash
keyhole, i was watching the reveal and i woke up my side of the apt complex when i saw the keyblade. i can't wait for tomorrow, i can die a happy man when i see him in game
Keyhole, and yes the magic in my heart was rekindled that day. For the first time in years since hitting my mid 20s, I began to believe like a kid and even now it feels so good. The cons of being an adult doesn't weigh me down anymore, for now at least. That day, Sora didn't just save all those fighters, he kinda saved me too, which I know is cheese on corn saying shit like this, but it's true. I could cough up blood saying thank you to Sakurai for what he did to all of us and it still wouldn't feel enough for me. Life has once again have meaning for me to live as I see fit thanks to this man. Thank you, Sakurai.
I felt the exact same way why he’s perfect for smash. His game series is both kid friendly, AND action packed. I also liked Kingdom Hearts as a kid and remembered playing it with my big brother, so bet I was happy when Sora finally joined the Smash Family!
Keyhole, I still can't believe this happened, me & my wife wanted to jump up and down screaming when we saw the trailer. I still can't believe this is real, my boys Joker from Persona 5 and Sora are in the exact same game together. This is truly what dreams are made of.
Here's the weird thing, Disney knew how big a series Smash bros was that they gave the okay. It was Nomura that was worried about adding in Sora that it would have destroyed his narrative, but he then gave in and allowed him in Smash bros Ultimate as the final fighter. I think of it as a symbolism that the new generation of games is up to the youth.
I've seen some theories that it's always KH1 Sora even if you change the outfit because the Sora in Smash is from Chain of Memories or when Namine puts him to sleep which would be meta as fuck if Nomura makes it canon. Also, Keyhole.
Keyhole. He's only been out for a week. He's also been the best reveal since sonic in brawl. I'm also thinking this is Canon between KH chain of memories and KH2, judging by the trailer alone. I haven't even played the games (only watched SomecallmeJohnny review them and fill me in), but this is still huge. DISNEY IS EVEN LISTED AS ONE OF THE COMPANIES ON THE TITLE SCREEN. Thank you Sakurai
I've said this before on HMK's video and it bears repeating here. Even though I have had doubts, somewhere, deep in my heart,❤️ I knew sora would join the smash bros as the the number 11 of the ultimate 11. #thankyousakurai
I haven't played Smash Brothers in years but now one these days I've got buy a Nintendo switch just because of Sora and now it's Smash Brothers ultimate
Keyhole. I missed the airing of the anouncment , but it was the first thing i saw on my phone that morning and i started running around my house screaming "Sora for SMASH!!!" My roommate asked me why was i so happy so early in the morning and then yelled at me to go back to bed. LMAO
Smash has always been about playing with your childhood toys. It's the embodiment of childlike wonder. So when the Smash ball goes out it means play time is over. And what game embodied child like wonder just as much as Smash? What series has us running around our favorite childhood movies and feeling pure wonder? Kingdom Hearts. Sora embodies the themes of Smash and he was the one to keep that childlike wonder alive. He was the perfect last character.
I'm so glad you got that passion back. Like HMK I never gave up but it was hard sometimes, and I'm so glad Sakurai came through. While it will sad if he retires, he deserves it and more.
I “gave up” after I finished playing the Ace Attorney games. As much as I love Kingdom Hearts, I wanted to see Phoenix Wright more than Sora. Still held out hope for him though and I still popped off when I saw it.
@Eddy Look up his move set in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3. That should answer your question.
I know sky knows this now, but Goofy is represented in the Valor skin and Donald in wisdom
Keyhole, I’m totally rocking the DDD outfit, it fits with his character model and Dream Drop is actually acknowledged, I love it!
Keyhole. Also tbh Sora’s reveal really brought peace along the internet for that whole day honestly.
Keyhole. Sora was a great final character and I think I'll be using his Kingdom Hearts 2 or 3 outfits whenever I play as him.
Keyhole.
Honestly I think it's great that no one threw hands with Sora. Really just makes ir all the more magical.
The man. The myth. The legend, has finally returned
I like the little shout outside in the smash game, the picture with the duck hunt duo, Mr. Game and Watch being fought in Hollow Bastion, the sunset scene, and the whole Galeem/Darhkon background which looked so damn cool. Excited for his appearance.
I dropped onto my knees when I saw the silhouette of that keyblade. And my legs were jelly for the next few hours.

Glad to see you back
And yes I'll be playing as Sora with his kh2 outfit!
Keyhole, I'm happy for everyone. I never played the games but I did watch and learn everything I could about the series and I wanted sora as well so I have an honorary badge to enjoy with y'all
YO hold up on sora for a second but when did YOU come back?!? I used to watch you back in the day man! Glad to have found you again Noel.
I have been watching your content for literally years! Tomorrow is gonna be lit! I will probably run KH1 sora and change it up every so often. Keyhole!
Keyhole and welcome back Sky . Right around the corner for the 20th anniversary . Its about to get spicy can't wait to see your reactions again and hopefully some new X-keepers videos discussing the upcoming Kingdom Hearts reveals .
You, HMK, and TGJ were the reactions i was looking forward to.
Also Keyhole. :)
Bro you said so much that really hit that emotional core. Great vid! Sora coming to Smash rejuvenated the soul
I’m still processing it. I can not believe that Sora from Kingdom Hearts (specifically 2), a contender for my favorite game of all time, the Sora I’ve written entire novel-length stories about, is in Smash. Keyhole
He hasn't dropped quite yet so... "Keyhole".
Glad to have you back Sky! As someone who has been struggling with getting their passion back in their hobby, I'm glad to see that you got yours!
This video made me happy af. Im literally gonna freeze when its time to choose a skin. Most likely going with the DDD or Valor form skin since I love red.
Keyhole Damn sky great video so happy to see you coming back making content full throttle. For sure gonna run that kh 3 outfit sora.
This is bringing nostalgia to all the times I watched your videos leading up to KH3!!
Keyhole
Keyhole! Your stream today was amazing, I got the shirt btw!:D Loved this video!
Keyhole!

Number 2 & 3 Picks for Costumes after KH2 is Ultimate Form & Timeless River.
Already capped some shirts! Welcome back!
KEYHOOOOOOOOOLE
And seeing Sora in Smash just brought me to tears. Of joy, that is, which is VERY hard to make me this overwhelmingly happy.
Got me with that gunshot sound at the end good content man, keep it up
Keyhole, my dude I can’t wait for Sora to come out. It feels like the dream is finally fulfilled.
Great to have you back Noel! Been a hot minute! Sora being in Smash made me buy this game and I actually really enjoy it. I've been playing with Cloud but as soon as Sora drops he'll be my main.

Great video man, glad to see that you are enjoying making content again. Keyhole boys for life
Keyhole Sora being in Smash is awesome. Can't wait to learn to use him
Keyhole. Dude I legit cried watching your reaction to Sora.
Keyhole
And I’m probably going to alternate between the KH1 and KH3 skins.
So happy to have you back on TH-cam Sky. Stay awesome. 😊
You got me over here crying watching this 😭😭🙏🏻
Keyhole like you and HMK, I’ve been waiting since smash 4 for Sora to come in and I’m probably gonna try to main KH1 Sora
Keyhole. Glad to see some KH content from you again!

This was a good video also I think Donald and Goofy are represented by Lucario and Falco as they are Anamorphic Animals and Duckhunt would be more Pluto #Keyhole.
Yeah, Lucario fits so well along Sora
Donald and Goofy are "technically" in smash with Valor and Wisdom form require them to be able to use them
My man it’s amazing to see another video from you. Keyhole also maybe classic skin
Keyhole! I don't comment often on TH-cam videos, but having been a subscriber since at least my first year of high school (and that was 6 years ago, oh boy), it's great to see you back in another video, Sky!
I’m so happy to see you come back sky omg
Sky now I have to buy a switch I said I'll buy a switch if Sora gets in a smash or characters I care about. And next year's going to be great this just feels like a little sample or an appetizer for the 20th anniversary for Kingdom Hearts. I'm sad to see smash go but I'm happy that it happened.
Adult life is pure garbage and Sora in Smash gave me relief. Welcome back dude. Missed your content.
Sora is the reason I bought the game and both fighter packs. Waiting for him to be available to start playing.
Keyhole.
I’ll probably just rock the Timeless River skin as well!
Keyhole dude. You awesome. Loved this video.
Keyhole gang rise up!
Also I'm mostly going to use KH2 Sora in Smash, occasionally switching it up with Timeless River & Ultimate Form. It's a shame they're not gonna have Final Form as a skin or his final smash, that's my one big gripe with Sora's announcement, but for the most part I'm just glad someone I actually wanted made it into Smash

keyhole, i was watching the reveal and i woke up my side of the apt complex when i saw the keyblade. i can't wait for tomorrow, i can die a happy man when i see him in game

Welcome back, glade you fund the right "keyhole"
Keyhole my boy I'm so excited to play as sora when he comes out
Dude....my two favorite series coming together. So freaking hyped bro. Im stuck between kh2 kh3 or valor form for the alts.
Keyhole.
And the “Sora is finally here” could also mean that all these years of waiting for Sora getting in has finally paid off
Keyhole!!!!!! This trailer made me so happy that day and it felt like a dream.
Welcome back to TH-cam, hope you stick around but do whatever makes sense for you
Keyhole! Good to see you back Sky
That shirt is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The ending feeled like disney and nintendo are now friends when they handshake
Keyhole. But god, I cried when he was announced, I love my little BOY! IM SO PROUD OF HIM
KeyHole gang. Good to see you back sky
Keyhole, I still can't believe this happened, me & my wife wanted to jump up and down screaming when we saw the trailer. I still can't believe this is real, my boys Joker from Persona 5 and Sora are in the exact same game together. This is truly what dreams are made of.

He’s finally here!!!
THE KING HAS RETURNED
Keyhole. Love u sky brotha man
Welcome back, Sky.
This made me cry again
Keyhole
I'm rocking that Kh 3 Sora
Keyhole. Sora is the perfect final character
I've seen some theories that it's always KH1 Sora even if you change the outfit because the Sora in Smash is from Chain of Memories or when Namine puts him to sleep which would be meta as fuck if Nomura makes it canon.
Also, Keyhole.
Keyhole this was great!
Keyhole. Ohh baby, I'm STILL watching the reactions, and I always keep smiling like a huge idiot despite it being so long.
I will be playing this for years
I don’t remember unsubscribing to you? TH-cam is weird man. Glad I saw your tweet so I could sub up you again. Glad to see you’re back!
Keyhole.
He's only been out for a week. He's also been the best reveal since sonic in brawl. I'm also thinking this is Canon between KH chain of memories and KH2, judging by the trailer alone.

Steve from minecraft was literally crazy for me as well!

Sora literally flew out of a keyhole and showed us dreams do come true😁🔑👑
KEYHOLE
Great to have you back!

Keyhole. When Sora comes out, I'm maining Sora in his KH2 outfit.

Keyhole its its just wonderful
Keyhole going with the 3D skin since that was my first exposure to Kingdom Hearts
I haven't played Smash Brothers in years but now one these days I've got buy a Nintendo switch just because of Sora and now it's Smash Brothers ultimate
Keyhole. I missed the airing of the anouncment , but it was the first thing i saw on my phone that morning and i started running around my house screaming "Sora for SMASH!!!" My roommate asked me why was i so happy so early in the morning and then yelled at me to go back to bed. LMAO
KEYHOLE! I missed you! Sora's the PERFECT final character!
"...And we treat it like it's the Holy Bible BECAUSE IT IS" got me dying!
OG Sora Because Limits are meant to be broken ( >wO) or Ultimate. also 14:27 XDDD
Keyhole

It’s kinda funny how they still found a way to put Disney in Smash 😂 best skin in the game.
Mighty Keef had a great reaction too!
Keyhole .... Sealing the.
