Joey Jo Jo Jr Shabadoo Awww... look at the little coward. Can't even deal with what others do with their time alone. It's okay, just go crawl back under your rock, everything will be okay.
Aaah, Kingdom Hearts is the only franchise that I dedicate enough time to watch an entire 21 minutes-long video on a single character. No regrets TwT Anyways, I've always found your KH Videos very interesting, GameTrailers. And thisone was no exception. Hell, I'd say this was a necessary video to clear up many things. Xehanort is an amazing villain and what it was always pretty clear *what* he wants to do, he has always been subtle about the *why* and *how* :3 With this video not only you answer many questions that many fans may have, but you also showed that Xehanort *(And every single one of his Incarnations)* is a much more complex and deeper villain that he may seem ;) Good job, GameTrailers and KHInsider! As a huge KH Fan, I'm satisfied with this video...even If I knew pretty much everything you mentioned in the video, a reminder never hurts XP
***** Personally, I believe that Xehanort somehow managed to trap Terra-Xehanort's heart (possibly via YX's time-travel) and the hybrid is one of the unseen members of the New Organization XIII. Hell, Master Xehanort explictly says in KH3D that he still owns Terra's heart, so he must kept it hidden somewhere and in someway. Whatever it is, I'm sure Terra's body & heart will be major plot points for KH3, with Sora, Aqua, Ventus and maybe even his Lingering Will fighting together to bring the original Terra back >:3
***** No regrets either, man. I'm a big time fan of Kingdom hearts, too. I think the big plot points of 3 should be Kairi's training, both story wise at the beginning with Yen Sid explaining Kairi's ability as a Princess of Heart and Guardian of Light, and gameplay wise so the players can get a feel of the game, Sora's maturity, with his training to become a master and understanding his burdens to save those connected to him, Aqua coming back first by Riku, due to her being trapped in the dark realm, they then go with Sora to Castle Oblivion using Eraqus' Keyblade as a compass to find the Chamber of Waking, where Ven is, the mysterious Lost Masters, which could provide a clue to the Keyblade War, and hopefully Sora and Kairi's romance will be touched upon more. It'd be nice if there were more Kingdom Hearts lovers and fans on these videos
Yeah story is confusing... YET AMAZING once you get and play through all the games. Now that they have the whole collection on like 2 discs and you can play KH Unchained on mobile (Free to play) and still experienced what happened a century ago. I honestly don't care how confusing it is anymore... cause it simply isn't. Like have you tried to understand that?! BRUH. It's games like these that are confusing - with so much lore that it's worth it!
you all probably dont care at all but does anybody know a tool to get back into an Instagram account?? I somehow forgot the login password. I would love any tricks you can give me!
Dude like,for real your kingdom hearts videos are awesome.. I just wanted to thank you all for givin us some wisdom about this amazing series... And btw love the edition on the video,great job!
3:00 ✋ that means 3 lights were converted into 3 darknesses, here's MY theory the X-blade MUST'VE split into 2 halves, 1 of pure light and the other of pure darkness, MEANING the keyblades Sora and Mickey have WERE ONCE THE X-BLADE!
Interesting fact, Terra's fate after Master Xehanort's resurrection is actually hinted at in the post-credits scenes of Birth By Sleep. When Aqua asks Ansem the Wise the name of the boy he is telling her about, we see clips of those whose hearts are connected to Sora's in the places/situations where they felt most at ease. Namine is drawing a picture of Sora, Roxas, Axel, and Xion are eating icecream together atop Twilight Town's Clocktower, and Ventus is sleeping in the Realm of Departure, until he is joined by Terra. All of them then glance upward and speak Sora's name. Terra's presence in Ven's clip hints to me that his heart may have been freed, and sought out the heart of his friend. Or maybe I'm reading to much into it.
Just watched the entire series it's so detailed amazing series would love to see a one time comeback episode after KH 2.8 partnered with KH Insider again. Great work
Something just occurred to me, Master Xehanort was revived when Xemnas and Ansem SOD where vanquished. Using this logic shouldn't terrra have been revived as well, since Master Xehanort was revived as himself and not as the fusion terranort.
I think he does have him under his control, but Terra might actually be a version of Xehanort, so he might have gotten his body back but is trying to break free of his control.
I feel Xehanort just traveled into Harry Potter's world where he met Voldemort. He learned how to make Horcruxes, and that is what explains Kingdom Hearts.
I'm gonna say that Xehanort is like Orochimaru and Aixen. They seem to be the main reasons behind everything from the main characters problems to major events and deaths in the characters life
I really love the kingdom hearts series, i fell in love with it from kingdom hearts 2, for those who haven't played it during each release you wouldn't believe how deep each game was and how eagerly everyone would wait for the games release. i remember after kingdom hearts 2 i read all the journal entries to my suprise the explanations in the journal entry became spin off titles like bbs and 358/2 days . the mystery of the hearts less experiments and the experimental subjects . i highly suggest reading the entries within the game it's really thrilling, kingdom hearts have many different arcs with in each game thats why i love the series
Also, Yen Sid is a reference to Walt Disney himself (read the name backwards). He is the master of Mickey Mouse, just like Walt Disney was the creator of Mickey.
The time travel part I think there is more to it since by all right xeanort could go back in time, in a younger body and plant his heart or a part of his heart in sora before he awakend the keyblade, heck during his sleep would have good. also the only ones that failed to be suitable canidates were in the lab with axle in dream drop distance the rest are part of the thirteen. if not then we can expect to hear more back story filling in the gaps in the story.
I love Kingdom Hearts more than any other game franchise, but seeing this video I've sadly realized that they lost the cohesiveness of the story. Add all of the plot twists and emotion, a story should still retain its core elements. But over the course of the many games that have been released, Xehanort's motives and methods have become convoluted and confused, which in turn confuses the player and stands out as the series's greatest criticism.
I honestly don't see how confusing it is. Sure it wasn't spelled out but each of his main incarnations carried out separate plans towards the same goal.
+DenisK21 xehanorts motives haven't changed true but you have to remember he was introduced in the 4th games in the series. First there's ansem who as far as I can remember just wanted the darkness in kingdom hearts but to make xehanort fit there's that awkward "twist" where we find out in kh2 that ansem from the first game is actually not ansem. Then in DDD we find out that actually xemnas wanted to fill 12 shells with darkness rather than what we were led to believe (because as far as I'm concerned it was the story they wrote for kh2) that they wanted Hearts to become whole again. Which was a much better story than xehanort turning everyone into nobodies to fill them with his heart and make them clones. It gave a bit more depth to the characters to just have them be the unfortunate victims of the heartless who were made nobodies and dragged into the conflict it making them just random people desperate to return to their former selves felt more real than giving them and artificially
+matty9460 (ran out of space apparently) large role within the storyline. Worse yet they're all back in DDD. what's the point in killing characters if they don't bloody well die? This feels like nothing short of fan service to bring back favourite characters. Finally as you can tell I have little problem with the story until dream drop distance which tried to retrospectively re write the whole story so far and ends up just feeling poorly written and forced (time travel what the actual fuck) I really hope they go a different direction than having 13 replicas of the same boring character whose motive is as vapid as "cause I feel like it". I don't mind them brining xehanort back in some capacity (though as I said I think the character is incredibly boring especially compared to the organisation). I really don't know what they're going to do tbh.
What I want to know is why the other apprentices became so far gone. Surely they would have been jealous of their master's new favorite. Maybe they decided joining him was better if Ansem had once praised his abilities above theirs? You say Braig had a lust for power. Does that mean Isa did too since he is the only other one who is half-Xehanort? In DDD, Isa looked a bit unwilling to fight Lea, and along the way Braig has shown that he secretly hopes for Xehanort's plans to fail. Maybe there's still hope for them.
I'm just gonna go out on a whim here and say this the 7 lights are 1. Sora 2. Riku 3. Micky 4. Aqua 5.Ventus 6. Kairi 7. Free spot for Roxas, Terra, or maybe (Vulpus foreteller) 13 seekers of darkness 1. Master Xehanort 2. Xemnas 3. Ansem 4. Terra Xehanort 5. Young Xehanort 6. Briag 7. Isa 9. Apprentice Xehanort/ Vanitas 10.? Leopardos 11.? Anguis 12.? Ursus 13.? Unicornis As stated in unchained one of the foretellers is a traitor I'm assuming gave his/her heart to darkness after meeting with the black coat (either Young Xehanort, or Ansem) then you may say why would he pick the foretellers? all 5 6 if you include the one that isn't included. also since there's a traitor you could say through internal politics, let's say that Ursus tempts the other 4 pushing them toward darkness and making them believe a different ally is the traitor causing a rift between the 5 unions, thus changing why each union wants the light, and pushing them toward darkness. well don't you have to have unleashed all your darkness to become a seeker? well the 5 unions start the keyblade war, so maybe during the war they give in to darkness to end it, or defeat their foes or through Xehanort. since they're declared the Lost Masters, maybe they're also trapped in the realm of darkness, or the Realm between. Vulpus or Unicornis will side with the light, but disappear as well. the battles I predict 1. Sora vs Xehanort 2. Aqua vs Terra Xehanort (again) 3. Riku vs Young Xehanort 4. Ventus vs Vanitas (again) 5. Mickey vs Xemnas 6. Riku vs Ansem 7. Lea(as help) vs Isa 8. Roxas (as help) vs Briag or Terra vs Briag 9. Leopardos vs Ventus 10. Unicornis vs Riku 11. Ursus vs Aqua 12. Anguis vs Terra 13. Vulpus vs those are completely speculation
Also Luxord MIGHT return as well. In the one KH3 trailer with all the chess pieces, there is one that looks like it has cube's on it so people are speculating that those are dice and dice is something related to Luxord.
+N7 Crisis I don't think luxord will be one. his role was minute along with demyx larxene. we will see those 3 as symbodies, but I doubt as seekers luxord was to gamey
In the secret episode of aqua when she is in the realm of darkness and defeated red eyes.....the ending showed her finding a Castle. What castle was that?
As you said it's weird, Xenahort (NoHeart hehehe) came back as the time of his fusion but Terra Disapeard ? But In DDD He appears when sora speaks about his friend. Also we know the 3 heroes of BBS are linked, and one of them is strongly (ven) linked to Sora...
200KHFan Right, sorry. The wait will not be as long. Gonna finish it as soon as possible. This (episode 3) we had to make you wait for because of numerous reasons, mainly the Easter holidays delayed it a bit.
I think the Xehanort we see in kingdom hearts 3d is still Terra Xehanort but because Xehanort has finally token complete control over Terras body, he toke on the appearance of what he looked like before the fusion. Also Xehanort is an awesome villain
unfortunately the protectors of light are going to walk into xehanorts trap, by waking up ventus, it's strongly implied that vanitas is going to come back too, giving him his 13th seeker of darkness, who's sort of a dark sora, I think
No he's not apart of a dark sora. He is venture darker half. He only looks like sora because ventus's hurt was in sora and that's why roxsas looks like ventus.
I just wanna point out tha "χ" is not pronounced like "kye" like everyone's saying it, but it's actually more like "hee" which even resembles "key" more.
wat if xehanort is the sixth forteller that the master of masters spoke of to the five fortellers and hes the one who will betray them as the master of masters said that one of u will betray ..maybe xehanort is just a vessel of that sixth forteller and he just keep taking vessels from the start of the keyblades until nowadays by picking the best keyblades fighter or the potential fighters..this sixth forteller took xehanort then terra then sora and in order to take them as vessels he has to drag them to darkness first like how xehanort, terra and sora in ddd drowned to darkness or that they cant control the darkness in their inner self thats y he cant take riku as a vessel cuz he accepted the darkness and controlled it..thats y riku succeeded the test and declared as a master of keyblade just like how aqua passed and terra failed..so lets say this guy who betrayed the first keyblade wielders or fortellers kept taking vessels to lengthen his life to accomplish his ambition or goal..plus can u remove the x from xehanort name and rearrange the letters, we may have the real guy name just a theory..also the five fortellers may incarnated in our friends and thats y they r special..u may no whose incarnated to by seeing the eyes in their keyblades and the animals on the key...also we no that only the masters of keyblades has the ability to take ppl as vessels by putting their heart into this vessel its like a "forbidden technique" but this technique has conditions one of them is maybe the vessel has to fall into darkness or he cant control his darkness or cant find the balance between light and darkness in his inner self i think riku was the target after terra and before sora but it failed cuz riku succeeded controling the light and darkness in his self thats y he passed the masters exam and thats y they turned to sora.. we all no riku is more talented than sora he was the original keyblade wielder..riku is a bad ass
you know, at the end of KHII, i had always thought the third game would be KH:The Keyblade War. While we have only glimpses of the actual battle throughout the later games, we never get to actually play through it. If Nomura is going to further withhold the KHIII story, he should put out the X-blade Wars ^_^
Given the nature of the Keyblade Graveyard, it is very possible, that Sora's heart has a connection to the War as like an origin point. And after the war, the heart begins its journey back to its vessel. Where it stumbles onto Ventus' fractured heart. X-blade wielder? Sora's heart was the one that created the original X-blade, triggering young Xehanorts search for the X-blade and Kingdom Hearts.
Wait so Ansem the seeker of darkness couldn't return to his own time after giving young xehanort the abbility to time travel? Why? Was it not like he copy pasted his abbilities to Xehanort?
My extremely far-fetched theory: The Master of Masters (which IMO is Xigbar) planned all the events up to the possible final showdown in KH3, where the 7 keepers of light and the 13 keepers of darkness will clash. Where Xehanort is simply the guy that puts everything in motion. Xigbar gave him his eye for the ability to see in the future, which explains why Xehanort was able to predict every event in the series. My guess is that Xigbar will be revealed as the real mastermind / final villain of the series...although technically he's already part of Xehanort so it doesn't make a big difference at this point. xD
NEETmoreAnime eh I don't like this theory. Not your theory per say but the whole Braig/Xigbar theory. He isn't main antagonist material. If KH is really good then Xehanort will be the main antagonist till the end.
i was thinking and maybe this is stretching it a bit but what if xehanort was actually soras grandfather i mean if you think about it isn't it a little convenient that xehanort would just happen to live on the same island as Sora
That right there could be possible. I mean they both are from Destiny Island so what if Xehanort got lucky and had a kid with a unknown woman which just so happens to be Sora's mother or father
you know the one thing i don't understand, is why didn't xehanort just transfer his heart over, before the heroes of light got to him? i mean i know its for plot reasons, but if he wanted sora on his side that badly he should have just acted as soon as they captured him.
Brandon Messing Well remember all of them needed to be gathered first before that, and he seemed confident he could stop Riku and Mickey if they came. He just did'nt count on Axel showing up.
I personally believe that apprentice Xehanort and Xemnas are the same being, and that Ansem and Xemnas were created when Xehanort stabbed himself with his keyblade.
Christopher Bravo No they aren't, apprentice xehanort is terra-xehanort. Terra-xehanort is the fusion of master xehanort and terra after his body is stolen.
I've heard that more times than I can count. and to be honest, my original comment isn't exactly true anymore. However, I like thinking that Xehanort created Ansem and Xemnas when he stabbed himself with his keyblade. Also, apprentice Xehanort didn't remember anything aside from his name, just like a nobody. personally, I find that interesting.
Christopher Bravo Yes, you are right that xehanort created xemnas & ansem when he stabbed himself. He did that to have both try to take over kingdom hearts. Xemnas made a KH of the hearts of men while ansem was trying to find the KH in the dark realm.
When Terra-Xehanort stabbed himself in the heart during their internal struggle (damn, Kingdom Hearts really makes you question your pronouns), I was sure that was actually Terra asserting control, trying to expel Xehanorts heart from his ("This'll teach you! Get out of my heart!"). The guardian heartless dissolves and everything. But you're saying it was Xehanort trying to lock both of their hearts away? I thought a stab from a dark/sharp keyblade releases a heart from a body. They've been pretty consistent about that.
opsonicfan358 Ah I see. Well, Riku fits that bill almost perfectly, except that Way to the Dawn isn't a keyblade of darkness I think. But he's a hero who's primary powers come from darkness (not just in Ansem form, as at the end of KH2 he still uses attacks like dark aura) and it's said that he can choose to wield the power of darkness as he wants to, i.e. for good. I think on several occasions it's explicitly questioned whether darkness equals evil. Like the heroes say at the end of KH2, they don't hate the dark, just who hide within it. But I get your point. I'd like this issue to be emphasized either in KH3 or later titles =)
LOL. I'm not knocking Kingdom Hearts, but grown men and women walking around eating on pudding pops instead of smoking cigarettes and twirling a glass of wine as the word is in danger...Priceless!
Ok so explain to me the exact moment when xeanort split into heartless and nobody. Was is when he fused with terra, was it when he was in the lab and killed the apprentices, or some third moment, cause 1 was said and so was the other. and in the 2nd organization 13 its the original old xeanort not a terra-xeanort. So what gives?
Well I'd say the main reason is because they wanted a gameplay consequence for spamming drive forms but lore wise I think it's safe to say it's to do with the fact that Sora became a heartless in KH1 and/or because of the darkness from others' hearts he carries.

what!? who did they play?
Khalifa Fauzi the actor for xehanort in japan and the english voice actor died
GOD DAWN THAT'S SOME TALENT!!!
Basically, Xehanort wants to use Keyblade War to forge the x-blade in order to create a world where light and darkness are in perfect balace.
Matt Piavis other way around
and that's evil how?
His plan means wiping out the entire universe and all its inhabitants so he can remake the world as he sees fit.

I just wanted to thank you all for givin us some wisdom about this amazing series...
And btw love the edition on the video,great job!
Basically Xehanort is a master of creating horcruxes. I find that's the best way to describe his multiple selfs existing at the same time.
Still crying when I hear Terra's struggle against darkness and Aqua's sacrifice... :'-)
Who's gonna save Aqua? And who's gonna save Terra?
"Xehanort boldly stabbed himself"
Where no man had stabbed him before?
3:00 ✋ that means 3 lights were converted into 3 darknesses, here's MY theory the X-blade MUST'VE split into 2 halves, 1 of pure light and the other of pure darkness, MEANING the keyblades Sora and Mickey have WERE ONCE THE X-BLADE!
I LOVE THIS. I already know the story but I love hearing it so thoroughly explained!
Interesting fact, Terra's fate after Master Xehanort's resurrection is actually hinted at in the post-credits scenes of Birth By Sleep. When Aqua asks Ansem the Wise the name of the boy he is telling her about, we see clips of those whose hearts are connected to Sora's in the places/situations where they felt most at ease. Namine is drawing a picture of Sora, Roxas, Axel, and Xion are eating icecream together atop Twilight Town's Clocktower, and Ventus is sleeping in the Realm of Departure, until he is joined by Terra. All of them then glance upward and speak Sora's name. Terra's presence in Ven's clip hints to me that his heart may have been freed, and sought out the heart of his friend. Or maybe I'm reading to much into it.
When it comes to kh, there's no such thing as 'thinking too much into it"
Just watched the entire series it's so detailed amazing series would love to see a one time comeback episode after KH 2.8 partnered with KH Insider again. Great work
Something just occurred to me, Master Xehanort was revived when Xemnas and Ansem SOD where vanquished. Using this logic shouldn't terrra have been revived as well, since Master Xehanort was revived as himself and not as the fusion terranort.
bvnbvn7654 We don't know, but Xehanort seems to hint that he still has Terra under his control, but he's very vague.
Leanne Herring "Sora and another on your list belong to me now, and that puts you 3 guardians short"
David Timmer Exactly
I think he does have him under his control, but Terra might actually be a version of Xehanort, so he might have gotten his body back but is trying to break free of his control.
His bodu did. His heart was still trapped.
I freaking love these videos!!
FINALLY! Honestly, the reason I check this channel is to watch KH Mysteries! LOL!
TheLegendOfSora73 same
I hope Big Hero 6 makes it into KH3.
***** not only that, it's the closest thing to getting marvel into KH3.
Why not? It literally could not make it many more complicated
Joey Jo Jo Jr Shabadoo are you trolling us or are you just being stupid
Aaron Morton I'm pretty sure he's just trolling at this point. Just ignore him
The Syncshadow Treasure Planet, and I'm good.
I feel Xehanort just traveled into Harry Potter's world where he met Voldemort. He learned how to make Horcruxes, and that is what explains Kingdom Hearts.
"Upcoming Kingdom Hearts 3"
*2 and a half years later*
*cackles in Dark Road*
I love this series
I'm gonna say it: Xehanort is the greatest video game villain.
I'm gonna say that Xehanort is like Orochimaru and Aixen. They seem to be the main reasons behind everything from the main characters problems to major events and deaths in the characters life
Who is Aixen? Do you mean Aizen from bleach?
Sorry I meant to type Aizen
Dookie Burrito Aizen invades Kingdom Hearts with a King's Key and his giant reiatsu!!
Ehhh maybe
I have no idea what's going on
danusty same lol, but it all sounds interesting. xD
bboycyl it does
danusty LOLOLOL exactly what I was thinking. I started spacing out after the 7 minute mark.
This game series makes zero sense
Joey Jo Jo Jr Shabadoo not sure if really stupid or just a troll
I can't wait for next month. This is so good thx for clearing things up!
just call it the "kye" blade. it would be far less confusing
I really love the kingdom hearts series, i fell in love with it from kingdom hearts 2, for those who haven't played it during each release you wouldn't believe how deep each game was and how eagerly everyone would wait for the games release. i remember after kingdom hearts 2 i read all the journal entries to my suprise the explanations in the journal entry became spin off titles like bbs and 358/2 days . the mystery of the hearts less experiments and the experimental subjects . i highly suggest reading the entries within the game it's really thrilling, kingdom hearts have many different arcs with in each game thats why i love the series
This series was made in preparation for kh3
I wonder if they had any idea it wouldn't be released for almost another 4 years
This is why BBS V2 would be a great game to fill in plot points between BBS and KH1
"Master Xehanort, what arst thou plans?"
KEYBLADE
Im still curious who they'll get to replace Nimoy for his voice...
adiata Burt Reynolds maybe?
adiata if we are lucky he already recorded his lines
Kh3 could be his last role like mickeys old VA in 358/2 days.
adiata I bet they finished VO awhile ago. If not, they can always fabricate his voice with all his tapes that they already possess.
You mean like the guys who made Furious 7 did with Paul Walker?
I don't even think Nomura understands the Kingdom Hearts lore anymore >____
If I do, then Nomura does too
TheFVchannel thats you
CJAdams97 If Nomura doesn't the story that well, then the series would have been over a long time ago
I know Xehanort a dick, and I don't agree with the whole 'Ultimate Power!' thing, but the Balance part of his plan does make a bit of sense.
My brain hurts
I've seen a reference to Yensid on the ABC series Once upon A Time. Does that mean we might see a connection between the series and the game?
gamonstudios Yen Sid is a character from Fantasia, in the short "The Sorcerer's Apprentice". He's not an original Kingdom Hearts character.
Also, Yen Sid is a reference to Walt Disney himself (read the name backwards). He is the master of Mickey Mouse, just like Walt Disney was the creator of Mickey.
Vivi Orunitia MIND FUCKING BLOWN
I know most of the stuff in these videos, it's putting it all together and understanding it as I play that I personally struggle with. ;~;
Thank you so much for explaining, there seems to be few things I didn't know at all from Kingdom hearts. Can't wait kingdom hearts 3 that is for sure.
The time travel part I think there is more to it since by all right xeanort could go back in time, in a younger body and plant his heart or a part of his heart in sora before he awakend the keyblade, heck during his sleep would have good. also the only ones that failed to be suitable canidates were in the lab with axle in dream drop distance the rest are part of the thirteen. if not then we can expect to hear more back story filling in the gaps in the story.
can you do a mystery video on the keyblade armor? I'd like to see it.
Put captions in the videos of Kingdom Hearts Mysteries please.
Plot twist: Xehanort is the good guy who just wants the worlds to be balanced and the others are just "light greedy"
I love Kingdom Hearts more than any other game franchise, but seeing this video I've sadly realized that they lost the cohesiveness of the story. Add all of the plot twists and emotion, a story should still retain its core elements. But over the course of the many games that have been released, Xehanort's motives and methods have become convoluted and confused, which in turn confuses the player and stands out as the series's greatest criticism.
I honestly don't see how confusing it is. Sure it wasn't spelled out but each of his main incarnations carried out separate plans towards the same goal.
In the first game, his motive was to reach Kingdom Hearts for the sake of knowledge and power. At absolutely no point has this changed.
DenisK21 You get me man. :D
+DenisK21 xehanorts motives haven't changed true but you have to remember he was introduced in the 4th games in the series. First there's ansem who as far as I can remember just wanted the darkness in kingdom hearts but to make xehanort fit there's that awkward "twist" where we find out in kh2 that ansem from the first game is actually not ansem. Then in DDD we find out that actually xemnas wanted to fill 12 shells with darkness rather than what we were led to believe (because as far as I'm concerned it was the story they wrote for kh2) that they wanted Hearts to become whole again. Which was a much better story than xehanort turning everyone into nobodies to fill them with his heart and make them clones. It gave a bit more depth to the characters to just have them be the unfortunate victims of the heartless who were made nobodies and dragged into the conflict it making them just random people desperate to return to their former selves felt more real than giving them and artificially
+matty9460 (ran out of space apparently) large role within the storyline. Worse yet they're all back in DDD. what's the point in killing characters if they don't bloody well die? This feels like nothing short of fan service to bring back favourite characters. Finally as you can tell I have little problem with the story until dream drop distance which tried to retrospectively re write the whole story so far and ends up just feeling poorly written and forced (time travel what the actual fuck) I really hope they go a different direction than having 13 replicas of the same boring character whose motive is as vapid as "cause I feel like it". I don't mind them brining xehanort back in some capacity (though as I said I think the character is incredibly boring especially compared to the organisation). I really don't know what they're going to do tbh.
What is the final cutscene with mickey riku sora from?
The really nice looking cut scene? That is the opening FMV from Dream Drop Distance.
What I want to know is why the other apprentices became so far gone. Surely they would have been jealous of their master's new favorite. Maybe they decided joining him was better if Ansem had once praised his abilities above theirs? You say Braig had a lust for power. Does that mean Isa did too since he is the only other one who is half-Xehanort? In DDD, Isa looked a bit unwilling to fight Lea, and along the way Braig has shown that he secretly hopes for Xehanort's plans to fail. Maybe there's still hope for them.
What song is playing from 0:37 to 0:51?
Too bad you guys stopped with these series! :(
Thanks for the effort though! :D
"In preparation for Kingdom Hearts 3!"
*Three Years Later*
"KH 3 Confirmed for 2019"
FUCK
this was an excellent summary
Alex Seibert I love your AMV's
honestly it almost sounds like Xemans wanted to fail his original plan in kingdom hearts 2
CoolthanHay No he wanted it to succeed but he knew master Xehanort would have a back up plan if it failed.
can someone tell me where that clip at 20:40 comes from?
gtarhero opening of Dream Drop Distance
That's the end of DDD
I'm just gonna go out on a whim here and say this the 7 lights are
1. Sora
2. Riku
3. Micky
4. Aqua
5.Ventus
6. Kairi
7. Free spot for Roxas, Terra, or maybe (Vulpus foreteller)
13 seekers of darkness
1. Master Xehanort
2. Xemnas
3. Ansem
4. Terra Xehanort
5. Young Xehanort
6. Briag
7. Isa
9. Apprentice Xehanort/ Vanitas
10.? Leopardos
11.? Anguis
12.? Ursus
13.? Unicornis
As stated in unchained one of the foretellers is a traitor I'm assuming gave his/her heart to darkness after meeting with the black coat (either Young Xehanort, or Ansem)
then you may say why would he pick the foretellers? all 5 6 if you include the one that isn't included. also since there's a traitor you could say through internal politics, let's say that Ursus tempts the other 4 pushing them toward darkness and making them believe a different ally is the traitor causing a rift between the 5 unions, thus changing why each union wants the light, and pushing them toward darkness.
well don't you have to have unleashed all your darkness to become a seeker? well the 5 unions start the keyblade war, so maybe during the war they give in to darkness to end it, or defeat their foes or through Xehanort. since they're declared the Lost Masters, maybe they're also trapped in the realm of darkness, or the Realm between.
Vulpus or Unicornis will side with the light, but disappear as well.
the battles I predict
1. Sora vs Xehanort
2. Aqua vs Terra Xehanort (again)
3. Riku vs Young Xehanort
4. Ventus vs Vanitas (again)
5. Mickey vs Xemnas
6. Riku vs Ansem
7. Lea(as help) vs Isa
8. Roxas (as help) vs Briag or Terra vs Briag
9. Leopardos vs Ventus
10. Unicornis vs Riku
11. Ursus vs Aqua
12. Anguis vs Terra
13. Vulpus vs
those are completely speculation
+Sean Akima Those are some pretty good speculations tho!
***** I'm also changing number 9. To Marluxia and Vulpeus to Terra. Roxas will help in someway.
Yea I think Marluxia will make a return in some way. Mainly because of the new nobody type enemies from the new trailer!
Also Luxord MIGHT return as well. In the one KH3 trailer with all the chess pieces, there is one that looks like it has cube's on it so people are speculating that those are dice and dice is something related to Luxord.
+N7 Crisis I don't think luxord will be one. his role was minute along with demyx larxene. we will see those 3 as symbodies, but I doubt as seekers luxord was to gamey
In the secret episode of aqua when she is in the realm of darkness and defeated red eyes.....the ending showed her finding a Castle. What castle was that?
The castle sleeping beauty was in. It was swallowed by darkness.
icamefromspacexD Actually it was the castle from Cinderella =|
THIS WAS UPLOADED ON MY BIRTHDAY!!!!!
As you said it's weird, Xenahort (NoHeart hehehe) came back as the time of his fusion but Terra Disapeard ? But In DDD He appears when sora speaks about his friend. Also we know the 3 heroes of BBS are linked, and one of them is strongly (ven) linked to Sora...
So is Terra still locked up and alive in his own body?
its like the anit-life equation than?
the next part won't be too long to upload like this one right?
200KHFan We believe it will be shorter. Aiming for the 10 minute mark. Let's see what happens :D
I mean when it comes out.
200KHFan Right, sorry. The wait will not be as long. Gonna finish it as soon as possible. This (episode 3) we had to make you wait for because of numerous reasons, mainly the Easter holidays delayed it a bit.
I was under the impression terra killed eraqus, or at least he thought he did.
sorry to ask but what's the music that's playing after the intro?
+Jackson Miles "Xehanort ~ The Early Years" from the KH3D soundtrack.
+gagejoseph91 thanks
Jackson Miles No problem.
The first minute of this video is speculation right? If not, who is the person that trained Zehanort along with Eraqus?
Aaron Lamar They were trained by a master. They mention their master in the kh3 E3 trailer. Who the master was, well that hasn't been revealed.
Aaron Lamar my guess is Luxu
1:49 BOORAY!!!
YEAH!
XD
what happen to Terra if Xehanort is back to his original self
So... Who else died a little seeing Aqua fall into the Realm of Darkness?
I am so confuse now. I have to go back and meticulously play each game!!
what cut scene is that? it starts at 20:38
That's from Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance.
I think the Xehanort we see in kingdom hearts 3d is still Terra Xehanort but because Xehanort has finally token complete control over Terras body, he toke on the appearance of what he looked like before the fusion.
Also Xehanort is an awesome villain
I thought pretty much the same... Though I thought he made himself look like that on purpose to screw with everyone. Wouldn't put it past him...
unfortunately the protectors of light are going to walk into xehanorts trap, by waking up ventus, it's strongly implied that vanitas is going to come back too, giving him his 13th seeker of darkness, who's sort of a dark sora, I think
No he's not apart of a dark sora. He is venture darker half. He only looks like sora because ventus's hurt was in sora and that's why roxsas looks like ventus.
I just wanna point out tha "χ" is not pronounced like "kye" like everyone's saying it, but it's actually more like "hee" which even resembles "key" more.
where did Tera's heart go? is there a possibility of him having a nobody?
Thanos acting like xehanort
A fight between Darth Sidious and Xehanort who would you think will win ???
wat if xehanort is the sixth forteller that the master of masters spoke of to the five fortellers and hes the one who will betray them as the master of masters said that one of u will betray ..maybe xehanort is just a vessel of that sixth forteller and he just keep taking vessels from the start of the keyblades until nowadays by picking the best keyblades fighter or the potential fighters..this sixth forteller took xehanort then terra then sora and in order to take them as vessels he has to drag them to darkness first like how xehanort, terra and sora in ddd drowned to darkness or that they cant control the darkness in their inner self thats y he cant take riku as a vessel cuz he accepted the darkness and controlled it..thats y riku succeeded the test and declared as a master of keyblade just like how aqua passed and terra failed..so lets say this guy who betrayed the first keyblade wielders or fortellers kept taking vessels to lengthen his life to accomplish his ambition or goal..plus can u remove the x from xehanort name and rearrange the letters, we may have the real guy name just a theory..also the five fortellers may incarnated in our friends and thats y they r special..u may no whose incarnated to by seeing the eyes in their keyblades and the animals on the key...also we no that only the masters of keyblades has the ability to take ppl as vessels by putting their heart into this vessel its like a "forbidden technique" but this technique has conditions one of them is maybe the vessel has to fall into darkness or he cant control his darkness or cant find the balance between light and darkness in his inner self i think riku was the target after terra and before sora but it failed cuz riku succeeded controling the light and darkness in his self thats y he passed the masters exam and thats y they turned to sora.. we all no riku is more talented than sora he was the original keyblade wielder..riku is a bad ass
Let us be real yeah.... when donald have his rage he is the biggest encounter ever
you know, at the end of KHII, i had always thought the third game would be KH:The Keyblade War. While we have only glimpses of the actual battle throughout the later games, we never get to actually play through it. If Nomura is going to further withhold the KHIII story, he should put out the X-blade Wars ^_^
Given the nature of the Keyblade Graveyard, it is very possible, that Sora's heart has a connection to the War as like an origin point. And after the war, the heart begins its journey back to its vessel. Where it stumbles onto Ventus' fractured heart. X-blade wielder? Sora's heart was the one that created the original X-blade, triggering young Xehanorts search for the X-blade and Kingdom Hearts.
5:54 when did that happen..game..cutscene..link..ANYTHING XD
Montrevius Whitfield/Pink X It's a flashback scene in Birth by Sleep. Terra's story if I remember correctly.
Thank you
Wait so Ansem the seeker of darkness couldn't return to his own time after giving young xehanort the abbility to time travel? Why? Was it not like he copy pasted his abbilities to Xehanort?
My extremely far-fetched theory: The Master of Masters (which IMO is Xigbar) planned all the events up to the possible final showdown in KH3, where the 7 keepers of light and the 13 keepers of darkness will clash. Where Xehanort is simply the guy that puts everything in motion. Xigbar gave him his eye for the ability to see in the future, which explains why Xehanort was able to predict every event in the series. My guess is that Xigbar will be revealed as the real mastermind / final villain of the series...although technically he's already part of Xehanort so it doesn't make a big difference at this point. xD
NEETmoreAnime That's a very popular theory but it seems like people forget that Braig lost his eye in a fight with Terra.
NEETmoreAnime eh I don't like this theory. Not your theory per say but the whole Braig/Xigbar theory. He isn't main antagonist material. If KH is really good then Xehanort will be the main antagonist till the end.
i was thinking and maybe this is stretching it a bit but what if xehanort was actually soras grandfather i mean if you think about it isn't it a little convenient that xehanort would just happen to live on the same island as Sora
S if xeohort is soras father and his nobody is roxas that makes xeohorts heartless roxas what now? Hahaha this steaming pile of turds makes no sense
Joey Jo Jo Jr Shabadoo please learn to spell
That right there could be possible. I mean they both are from Destiny Island so what if Xehanort got lucky and had a kid with a unknown woman which just so happens to be Sora's mother or father
brian griebel It's called plot convenience.
I would think he'd be Riku's grandfather, or some other relative of Riku's. In his youth he did look a lot like Riku.
does anyone know what game the 13:30 cutscene is?
Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance
Erikthedood thx
Kingdom Hearts Tripple D.
Uh Brandon, I'm pretty sure they were Isa and Braig by the time KH 3D happened.
you know the one thing i don't understand, is why didn't xehanort just transfer his heart over, before the heroes of light got to him? i mean i know its for plot reasons, but if he wanted sora on his side that badly he should have just acted as soon as they captured him.
In the realm of sleep this was not possible as they had nobodies rather they were all walking hearts
Brandon Messing Well remember all of them needed to be gathered first before that, and he seemed confident he could stop Riku and Mickey if they came. He just did'nt count on Axel showing up.
does anyone see a conection with the 13 keys of darkness(x-blade peices) and organization 13!
wooah, Ventus was 10 years old?
I feel like I've never played a Kingdom Hearts correctly..
tera should still have a peice in him
I cant wait for kingdom hearts 3
I personally believe that apprentice Xehanort and Xemnas are the same being, and that Ansem and Xemnas were created when Xehanort stabbed himself with his keyblade.
Christopher Bravo No they aren't, apprentice xehanort is terra-xehanort. Terra-xehanort is the fusion of master xehanort and terra after his body is stolen.
I've heard that more times than I can count.
and to be honest, my original comment isn't exactly true anymore.
However, I like thinking that Xehanort created Ansem and Xemnas when he stabbed himself with his keyblade.
Also, apprentice Xehanort didn't remember anything aside from his name,
just like a nobody.
personally, I find that interesting.
Christopher Bravo Yes, you are right that xehanort created xemnas & ansem when he stabbed himself. He did that to have both try to take over kingdom hearts. Xemnas made a KH of the hearts of men while ansem was trying to find the KH in the dark realm.
but you don't think that Xemnas IS apprentice Xehanort
Christopher Bravo Yes, xemnas is not apprentice xehanort himself, he is the nobody of him.
When Terra-Xehanort stabbed himself in the heart during their internal struggle (damn, Kingdom Hearts really makes you question your pronouns), I was sure that was actually Terra asserting control, trying to expel Xehanorts heart from his ("This'll teach you! Get out of my heart!"). The guardian heartless dissolves and everything. But you're saying it was Xehanort trying to lock both of their hearts away? I thought a stab from a dark/sharp keyblade releases a heart from a body. They've been pretty consistent about that.
Terra and Xehanorts hearts were in the same body, he stabbed himself becouse he wanted to send terras heart into the darkness
Well, I suppose if anyone would know, it'd be you, Mr. Xehanort. :-)
Michiel Helvensteijn indeed :D
i so want them to introduce a hero who has a keyblade of darkness at some point... other than xehanort.
3:56 and yet he's the bad guy....
opsonicfan358 Mickey's keyblade is actually one of darkness. He obtained it for the purpose of closing the door at the end of KH1.
Hyaru12 let me clarify: a hero with a keyblade of darkness, uses darkness primarily, and the mistaken idea of darkness=evil is questioned
opsonicfan358 Ah I see. Well, Riku fits that bill almost perfectly, except that Way to the Dawn isn't a keyblade of darkness I think. But he's a hero who's primary powers come from darkness (not just in Ansem form, as at the end of KH2 he still uses attacks like dark aura) and it's said that he can choose to wield the power of darkness as he wants to, i.e. for good. I think on several occasions it's explicitly questioned whether darkness equals evil. Like the heroes say at the end of KH2, they don't hate the dark, just who hide within it.
But I get your point. I'd like this issue to be emphasized either in KH3 or later titles =)
MAAAN i feel like they were making this shit up as the went lol
HOLY CRAP LEONARD NIMOY WAS XEHANORT!?!?!?!?!?!
The "qui" is greeke and its pornouced like "key". Idk why some people struggle with this.
I played all these games but I remember none of this
XaldinX wow
Anyone watching this in 2018, the day kingdom hearts 3 releases in North America? Took a little while eh? lol
Xehanort. Mary Magdalene.
LOL. I'm not knocking Kingdom Hearts, but grown men and women walking around eating on pudding pops instead of smoking cigarettes and twirling a glass of wine as the word is in danger...Priceless!
Ok so explain to me the exact moment when xeanort split into heartless and nobody. Was is when he fused with terra, was it when he was in the lab and killed the apprentices, or some third moment, cause 1 was said and so was the other. and in the 2nd organization 13 its the original old xeanort not a terra-xeanort. So what gives?
anyone else think main Xehanort will be Apprentice Xehanort (Terranort)
i just have a question, why can Sora TURN into a heartless in kh2
Well I'd say the main reason is because they wanted a gameplay consequence for spamming drive forms but lore wise I think it's safe to say it's to do with the fact that Sora became a heartless in KH1 and/or because of the darkness from others' hearts he carries.
