“But who will I have ice cream with?!” The purest line I had ever heard. A boy who’d never known anything other than sharing an ice cream with people he could call friends. When he was loosing one of those friends, he said that line because it was the most precious thing he knew.
Galvenite 25 the prevailing criticism is that it’s random and makes him sound stupid. Those who say this just don’t understand his charcater throughout the entire game.
Who was that girl again? It's weird. I feel like I'm forgetting something very important. Yet anytime I think of her, I feel so sad. Why is that and who was she?
Same here. And to think he has more development than Sora. He's such a good character and I would relate to him. Roxas, Sora's Nobody, has more development than Sora. He has gone to some zombie to someone with a wide array of emotions. This theme is one of my absolute favorites in the franchise and his fight is amazing and is the best fight imo aside of Xemnas.
I’m 24, and I was 7 when KH2 came out. I never really understood or paid attention to the story when I was younger, but now, just the flute at the start of this song is enough to make me cry.
It's a case of "appearances can be deceiving". I was like that once upon a time but after seeing the secret ending of KH2FM I had to know more about this series. I had KH1 but never finished it and here I am many years later a huge fan of the series. If you showed someone this song and didn't tell them it was from a Disney game they'd never guess it.
Yeah look could be deceiving. At first glance I thought KH will just like another fanservice Disney game with simple plot for kid without much depth. but it turn out this game has a very complex well written story and characters. i kinda wish next KH Has higher age rating like at least 13+
Man...poor roxas he never did enjoy his life to the fullest...all he wanted was to hangout with xion and axel and eat sea salt ice cream,you will always be my best key blade warrior
"no roxas, YOU'RE you. you deserve to be your own person as much as I do!" - sora "haha, see?, Sora. That's why it has to be you." - roxas Roxas meeting Sora in DDD, explaining his hurt, after telling sora "this could have been the other way around" probably meaning roxas could've been the chosen one, but he had too much doubt, and pain.
No it's not that he has too much doubt and pain. It's only because he is the nobody. But since they are technically the same person Sora could have been the nobody. But it's probably one of my favourite dialogue all time
The real name of this song is called "The Other Promise." There are TONS of different renditions of this song in the series and it's one of the most popular soundtracks in the franchise. This version is just one of them... Correct me if I'm wrong,, but I believe this specific rendition only plays once in the whole franchise and that is in the beginning of Kingdom Hearts II during the cutscene when Roxas discovers the truth of his existence...that he is not actually his own person; that he is just a husk -- a remnant left behind after Sora temporarily became a Heartless in the first game -- and that the town he thought he grew up in was just a simulation -- a datascape which he was imprisoned into with fake memories and fake friends created for the purpose of being studied by someone he's never met. The most heart-wrenching part of this whole thing was the pure existential despair over the sudden realization that he was never a real person and that he was never even meant to exist to begin with. Not to forget that his friends weren't even real and their real-life counterparts have no idea who he even is. The existential dread of not only his existence being an accident and knowing that he isn't even his own individual but some scrap left behind by someone he doesn't know but the fact that the place that he loved and the people he cared dearly about weren't even real. What mattered dearly to him was in reality just someone else's disposable data. I was like 11 or 12 or something when I played KHII for the first time... which was actually the very first Kingdom Hearts game I've ever played. It was a weird beginning to be introduced into the franchise, but I remember being just as confused and crushed as Roxas was when he discovered Sora in his sleeping pod. (The fact that Roxas was just as clueless to Sora's identity as I was only poured gas onto the fire.) I nearly wanted to just quit the game after that. The sudden turn in tone from that dark intro to Soras bright and positive adventurous attitude felt uncanny, especially considering that I knew ZERO background to the franchise back then.
You're correct that it's not Roxas' Theme, but The other promise. However, as for when it plays... I think it was first played in Days, when Axel fights Xion to try to get her back at the doors of the Mansion in Twilight Town. The part you mention at the beginning of KH2 I think is actually Roxas' Theme, but now I'm not 100% sure.
@@3nowStorm It probably didn't help that Sora's theme sucks SO MUCH. I get the "idea" behind it, it's cheery and upbeat and whatnot. But come on. Sora. Main Hero. He has to be awesome and epic. Going from that absolutely soul rending piece that is Roxas' Theme to the stupid Sora's Theme was just wrong...
this is an orchestral version by Yoko Shimomura, the original the other promise is played vs roxas in kh2 fm, this is called the other promise drammatica
I had the exact same first experience with KH - I also started with KH2 at that age. I was so mad I would keep playing the Roxas part, and didn't enjoy the rest of the game that much. Then I went back and played the first game and started to like Sora a lot more, but he is such a jerk at the beginning of KH2, at least that's what I thought because that was the first time I met him. It felt like a completely different game.
Roxas was the first ever character i saw in the Kingdom Hearts series, seeing him disappear so fast in the game and barely being able to play him made me so sad for many years. He's a goddamn legend in my heart and always will be.
Pretty ironic tbh. For people who played the first game, the Roxas segment was a boring slog and they just wanted to know what was up with Sora. But for you, who started with KH2, you didn't realize that anything was out of the ordinary when you boot up the game for the first time and you were playing as Roxas instead of Sora. As a result, you felt the same gut punch seeing Roxas rejoin Sora as people who played the first game felt when they saw the Destiny Islands get swallowed by the darkness. Funny how much our expectations can color these things.
Yeah, it's crazy man, made me cry a lot when he just was gone, i was really young back then, and emotional things that i get attached too really made me cry a LOT, it was like seeing a part of me disappear in a way.@@HunterStiles651
The Ice Cream Trio will always and forever hold a special place for me, they are actually my favorite of all the iconic trios from KH. This song hurts to hear, and never fails to bring me to tears.
Every version of Roxas had an hell of a life. Some people want Roxas back in KH3 and I would love to see that happen and seeing him interact with Hayner, Pence and Olette but at the same time I think ''they don't even know him, no one knows him, these people probably had different adventurous than Roxas, different fights, I don't want to see Roxas getting dissapointed or seeing getting hurt again.'' He learned how to use emotions in 358 with Axel and Xion... And only hurted him in the end. Recoded, BBS he doesn't get a good end. Roxas is one of my favorite characters in gaming wih one of the greatests story's I have ever seen. Rest in peace.
Roxas is more Sora than Ventus, he just have Ventus appearence, but his was made from Sora's heart. If he was a normal simili, he would look exactly like Sora and have his memories. Ventus prevent that to happen, his heart was in roxas body and was blocking sora's memories. So Roxas didn't had any memories, allowing him to be himself and not just the simili of Sora. If Ventus wasn't here, he would be exactly a copy pasta of Sora. I always find this weird, to think that if Sora had loose his memories and was in the place of Roxas, he would have behaved exactly like that. Roxas is just another Sora with another life.

@@GoldDragon20 Like I said. It's okay to cry. It isn't a sign of weakness. But a sign that you've been strong for too long. Just let it all out, there's no shame in it.
In the spirits section, our boy Roxas is the legendary spirit! He's represented by a final form Sora dual-wielding the Keyblade and that sword that glows purple on occasion.
I guess, but since Disney allowed Nintendo to use Sora (and, as a result, other Kingdom Hearts characters) we have a chance to see Roxas as a fully playable and unique character in another Smash game.
"Forgotten days, a fading memory Lost and no longer seeking one another Desperately still, you're reaching toward him Hopelessly certain you can mend the broken Longing for a light lost in time, so distant" - Lyrics from Lizz.
Roxas holds a special place in my heart as the first Kingdom Hearts character I ever knew. Yes, the first Kingdom Hearts game I ever played was 358/2 Days.
I played the games released prior to 358/2 Days, so I didn't care for Roxas during KH2. After playing 358, Roxas, Axel, & Xion definitely became my favorite characters. I hope they get another game in the near future
My childhood mates was struggling on the xion fight I was like oh let me cuse I used to play the ds a lot when I was younger went into the fight took me a few tries did it then cried I was 7or 8 at the time now I am 22 xD
"WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM?!?! You both... Think you can do whatever you want... Well I'm sick of it. So go on, you keep running!! BUT I'LL ALWAYS BE THERE TO BRING YOU *BACK!!*"
Manga version (I don't know if it's in the game because I've never played KH2): Roxas: Why me? DiZ: Because you hold the other half of his power...and because you are a Nobody. Roxas slashes at DiZ, but fazes through him/ DiZ: Oh, sorry. This is just a data-based projection. Roxas: I hate you... DiZ: Well then...make sure you pass on that hatred. Roxas: NO!!! MY HEART BELONGS TO ME!!!
That is almost accurate to Kingdom Hearts II, but it added a bit of extra dialogue and changed the lines. I have the full script word for word. DiZ: At last... the Keyblade's chosen one. Roxas: Who are you talking to? Me, or Sora? DiZ: To half of Sora, of course. You reside in darkness. What I need is someone who can move about the realm of light. Roxas: Why? Who are you? DiZ: I am a servant of the worlds. And if I'm a servant, then you should consider yourself a tool at best. Roxas: Was that... was that supposed to be a joke? _[Roxas summons the Keyblade]_ Roxas: Because I'm not laughing! _[Roxas slashes at DiZ, but he displays as data, so the attack phases through him]_ DiZ: My apologies. This is only a data based projection. _[Roxas gets angry and slashes through DiZ' data a ton, only to be panting heavily when he disappears]_ _[DiZ appears in front of Sora's pod]_ DiZ: Come, over here. Roxas: I hate you so much... DiZ: You should share some of that hatred with Sora. He's far too nice for his own good. Roxas: No! My heart belongs to me! _[Roxas slashes through DiZ' data one last time before he disappears, and Sora's pod opens, revealing him sleeping inside]_ Roxas: Sora... you're lucky. Looks like my summer vacation is... over.
The Keyblade of Destiny The manga version added the extra emotion of tears as he expressed his hate towards DiZ which was good honestly. A remaster of 2 would be amazing
@@darkinsanity8125 Oh, yeah, for sure. But still, you have to feel bad for Roxas. All he wanted to do was be his own person and hang out with his friends.
"It's way past time that you learnt what REAL HURT FEELS LIKE!" ....damn, even as some data, Roxas still has those memories of guilt from 358/2 days, it's heartbreaking.
@@simonediliberto4314 I’m more cringe for not playing Kingdom Hearts. Better save up and play at least one KH game and earn that Keyblade Master on my stone as well
Roxas: "This could have been the other way around. But it really has to be you." Sora: Roxas, you're you. We're not the same. I wanted to tell you that. That you deserve as much as I do to be your own person." Just.... The feels hit real hard with these lines.
The amount of tears that want to come gushing out whenever I listen to Roxas’s theme, Xion’s theme, or even Ventus’s theme. Why do they have to make them sound so good yet so sad?
my neighbors dog died in my arms today... she was such a good dog.. she didnt deserve to be neglected.. for two days she was barking.. i thought he (the owner) was doing something with her but no.. he just left her chained to a fence in his back yard... i did everything i could when i saw her..untied her from leash and collar.. pulled her onto a dirty nearby blanket and dragged her into the shade.. wet her nose and paws but it was already too late.. she was gone... she was taking shorter and shorter breaths.. until she just... was still... god i cant stop crying... she didnt deserve this... she was so sweet and never shy to show her love.. a beautiful great dane, 3 years old and she was left in the back yard alone and in the heat with no water and scattered hard dog food... i did all i could.. rest in peace brandy you were a very good girl that deserved so much more... ill always keep your memory in my heart..
My dog passed just 2 months ago. I was extremely upset that she went away. It was like a vase just shattered inside of my heart. I cared for her like she was family. I let her lay beside me when she was scared, or when she was tired. I even played with her a lot. These past 2 months have been really silent. No constant barking, no frantic pacing on the stairs... it just feels... _empty,_ like a deep sleep, but with no dream.
I told a customer how I loved KH. She said the Disney stuff always turned her off. I said you’re really missing out. The story is emotional and beautiful.
@@addzay3135if you don’t think the endgame of kingdom hearts 3 has some of the best content in the entire series I struggle to believe if you are actually a fan of kingdom hearts. Plus, the Disney worlds weren’t even bad; they were the most fully realized and explorable they had ever been in the series. Like the Disney worlds or not, the endgame of kh3 was beautiful.
@@Erikthedood My only problem with the Disney Worlds in KH3 is that Disney pretty much prevented Nomura from doing what he wanted with them and essentially forced him to copy-paste the movie story in some cases (like Frozen or Tangled). Apart for this, they are easily the best Disney worlds in the entire series.
(just going to script a quick scene here) [imagine this playing in the background] *scene set: Roxas is drifting slowly down in a void of darkness, his voice is head* Roxas: Where am I? Roxas:Oh...thats right. Roxas: Hayner, Pence, Olette..... Roxas: Im sorry. *enter sora in a ray of light* Sora: Who are you?* Roxas *smiles sadly* im just a boy who was never meant to exist.. Sora: Don't say that! No matter what, if you existed at some point, you had to have meant something to somebody, which gives you a reason to exist! Roxas: Thank you..Sora? Will you let me stay with you here? Sora: Of course..We can be friends Roxas: Friends...(smiles and then slowly dissapears and the scene fades to black)
This rips you apart when it plays in the fight against Roxas. He gives you absolutely everything he's got and holds nothing back, both because he wants to test Sora to see if everything he went through was worth it or not in the end, whether or not he will be able to have his vengeance on Xemnas for what he did to Axel and Xion, and also of course to unleash whatever rage his Nobody form allows him to feel upon Sora for being born. Be sure not to disappoint him.
who would dislike this music. like seriously people this is some of the best gaming music i have ever heard! thumbs up, kingdom hearts!!! like if u agree.
Honestly, Roxas was always my favorite character despite the fact he was only KHII's Prologue protagonist, discovering the truth of his existence making him all so much more tragic a hero. Even when I was a kid my heart was sufficiently hurt knowing my time playing him was so mockingly brief, but it was worse later when I learned his friends never truly knew of his existence. Tragic to a T, man.
knowing that there might be no real happy end for roxas in kh3 makes me sad... you know he is just a piece of sora, yet i feel like he could have his own game series and be the main hero, he is amazing and i love roxas!
I know he ended up getting a happy ending in kH3 and that was amazing. But I can't help but wonder whether it just cheaply downplay's all his suffering just for some fan service. Like everyone loves to see a tragic character be happy again. But something more important is that character just being at peace. Roxas's final arc in KH2 ended in peace. And although i think he deserved to be with Xion and Axel.... i think the way they did it was just too unrealistic for a series that generally has come across as a metaphor for life.
What I really love about the Kingdom Hearts soundtrack is that it's mystical but royal at the same time, truly a fairy tale kinda vibe. Even when somber the piano is regal, and even when painful the strings are slow, the choir signs an elegy for the boy who never existed.
During a DnD Session, my friend likes playing songs to match the mood. During a depressing, deep part that was meant for my character, he started to play The Other Promise. It broke me. I actually started to cry.
There's no script you have to follow. The journal's the closest thing you've got, but that doesn't mean you’ll see the things it says. And you know, who really cares? Everything that happens here, everyone you meet, is an illusion --Roxas
KH3 SPOILERS Roxas, Xion, and several other Organization members (only Xemnas and those two are explicitly confirmed but Saix, Axel, and Xigbar are heavily implied) are confirmed to have hearts, as nobodies can grow hearts by forming bonds with others. (Or in Xigbar's case by being the man behind the man behind the man behind the man.)
probably the part that always makes me cry is the very beginning of kh 2 when Sora is waking up and the last line Roxas delivers are: "Looks like my summer vacation is ...over". THAT LINE ALWAYS MAKES ME CRY SO HARD he didnt deserve that..im happy in KH3 hes back with his friends, once a vessel finally became a human!
It's a shame you don't get to play as him. It would be cool if Nomura makes it to where you can play as other characters (*cough*cough* Roxas *cough*cough*) in some form of DLC.
"I owe my return to many, some of those people you knew" "Ansem the Wise, Zexion..." "And others too. It seems you aren't as good at winning over hearts as you think" "I needed one last thing to come back, a connection. Sora helped me find my way back here"
In 3 roxas's return felt really lackluster........ "Hey im back" "Roxas!" "My Turn" *FIGHT STARTS AND HE ISNT IMPORTANT UNTIL A 12 SECOND CREDITS SCENE* they did my boy dirty.
You can leave roxas and xion to fight saix roxas does insane amount of damage. It's a funny nod to the point in 358 when roxas leaves the organization saix stops him only to be left face first on the floor
lackluster? yeah definitely. but seeing Roxas, Lea and Xion hugging in that little bundle and then the credits scene with them, the twilight 3 and Isa all eating ice cream together? *sniff* worth every goddamn penny, I tell ya... ;~;
Disagree, Roxas's return was quick, but it still did everything right and everything made sense, also, the idea of Roxas just being straight up invincible during the fight, allowing him to literally tear Saix apart, makes the scene worth replaying a million times.
Kingdom Hearts 2 was the very first Kingdom Hearts game I ever played, so I knew Roxas before I knew Sora. He’s always been one of my favorite characters, if not my favorite.
This beautiful piece of music i listened to when i was 13 during some hardships and some great memories, I am older into my adult years I just wanna thank the uploader for keeping this here it reminds me of how far i have come in my life
I could post a spoiler comment, but I decided not to. You're welcome. Kingdom hearts III proved to me that no matter how old I get (29) I'm still that 14 year old kid back when I played Kingdom Hearts. Don't miss out on this, your heart needs to experience it.
Same here, brother. The entire ride of Kingdom Hearts showed me a lot of things, but there are three that I remember most. *1: Never forget the memories that define who you are. Even if you have to shackle your own heart, even if you have to find out the truth for yourself, don't lose sight of the person you're meant to be. Forgetting them might make you a better person, but when you're struggling to remember just who you are and why you exist, the memories will always come back to remind you of what you truly are.* *2: Everyone has a heart. That doesn't mean they can't be friendly, but no one deserves to be called a Heartless. You just need to show them that the world cares for them and they can find a place in the world. Wherever it may be, that choice is up to them.* *3: Every person you meet forms a new connection. The bond of friendship is a beautiful thing, and having multiple friends means you can never be sad or lonely. Your friends may be far away, but no matter what, so long as you know them, your hearts are always connected. If you sever the bond between you and those you care for, you'll drift farther away from them and into a dark hole you'll never be able to escape from.* I have Kingdom Hearts to thank for showing me the strength of my heart and the understanding of each dilemma. The road may be dangerous, but I still believe that I can make a change in the world. So long as I continue to be who I am, I'll be the light of everyone's hearts, the strength to pull them out of the deepest reaches of the darkness. I want everyone to know me and be my own person. I want to make a connection with everyone I meet. Even if I'm a nobody in the world, I don't care. I'm proud to be who I am and have friends who care about me. *_May your heart be your guiding key. You'll know where I am._*
I mean, he did come out of a book in the DDD opening, for some reason, that gets me thinking, what if Roxas DOES come back? And he becomes the 7th guardian of light, it's either him, Lea, or Kairi.
Roxas is by far the most tragic character in all of Kingdom Hearts considering he lost both his friends that day then found out he wasn't suppose to exist.
Roxas has the roughest life: Being kept in the dark by the Organization, Unable to trust his best friend (Axel), Having to destroy Xion, and along with Namine, being used by DIZ (Ansem The Wise) then discarded for Sora.
I first saw Roxas at the end of Riku's Story in Chain of Memories and intrigued by who this mysterious kid was, and with the release of KH2 I was formally introduced to a character i knew I would love.
Exactly^ yes he's been betrayed, he has experienced loss and he's even been manipulated and decieved, but he DID NOT let all that make an emo crybaby put of him! He grew a pair and decided to fight back! Yeah he is still shaken by trust issues but he STILL tries to be brave and even confident and remains a loyal friend to his day ones! Basically, he may not take jack shit from anyone these days, but he hasn't forgotten how to be a good person to those who deserve it.

I was like 11 or 12 or something when I played KHII for the first time... which was actually the very first Kingdom Hearts game I've ever played. It was a weird beginning to be introduced into the franchise, but I remember being just as confused and crushed as Roxas was when he discovered Sora in his sleeping pod. (The fact that Roxas was just as clueless to Sora's identity as I was only poured gas onto the fire.) I nearly wanted to just quit the game after that. The sudden turn in tone from that dark intro to Soras bright and positive adventurous attitude felt uncanny, especially considering that I knew ZERO background to the franchise back then.
Plays when you fight him in 2 final mix
You're correct that it's not Roxas' Theme, but The other promise.
However, as for when it plays... I think it was first played in Days, when Axel fights Xion to try to get her back at the doors of the Mansion in Twilight Town.
The part you mention at the beginning of KH2 I think is actually Roxas' Theme, but now I'm not 100% sure.
@@3nowStorm It probably didn't help that Sora's theme sucks SO MUCH. I get the "idea" behind it, it's cheery and upbeat and whatnot.
But come on. Sora. Main Hero. He has to be awesome and epic. Going from that absolutely soul rending piece that is Roxas' Theme to the stupid Sora's Theme was just wrong...
this is an orchestral version by Yoko Shimomura, the original the other promise is played vs roxas in kh2 fm, this is called the other promise drammatica
I had the exact same first experience with KH - I also started with KH2 at that age. I was so mad I would keep playing the Roxas part, and didn't enjoy the rest of the game that much. Then I went back and played the first game and started to like Sora a lot more, but he is such a jerk at the beginning of KH2, at least that's what I thought because that was the first time I met him. It felt like a completely different game.
This is my favourite song in the Kingdom Hearts series. you can feel the sadness and tragedy in it.
Vector to the heavens too
Days was my first KH game so Roxas, Axel and especially Xion were all very iimportant to me
* EnvyTheJelly * SAME!
same
Me too. That trio is my favorite and I love them so much I was so sad when Days ended like that, it broke my heart
I played recoded first and I never knew who he was up until when 3 released and I got the full bundle he gave me so much nostalgia
Actually xion and Roxas same person
Roxas was the first ever character i saw in the Kingdom Hearts series, seeing him disappear so fast in the game and barely being able to play him made me so sad for many years. He's a goddamn legend in my heart and always will be.
So you didn’t play the first game first? What an idiot!
Pretty ironic tbh.
For people who played the first game, the Roxas segment was a boring slog and they just wanted to know what was up with Sora.
But for you, who started with KH2, you didn't realize that anything was out of the ordinary when you boot up the game for the first time and you were playing as Roxas instead of Sora. As a result, you felt the same gut punch seeing Roxas rejoin Sora as people who played the first game felt when they saw the Destiny Islands get swallowed by the darkness.
Funny how much our expectations can color these things.
Yeah, it's crazy man, made me cry a lot when he just was gone, i was really young back then, and emotional things that i get attached too really made me cry a LOT, it was like seeing a part of me disappear in a way.@@HunterStiles651
The Ice Cream Trio will always and forever hold a special place for me, they are actually my favorite of all the iconic trios from KH. This song hurts to hear, and never fails to bring me to tears.
Every version of Roxas had an hell of a life. Some people want Roxas back in KH3 and I would love to see that happen and seeing him interact with Hayner, Pence and Olette but at the same time I think ''they don't even know him, no one knows him, these people probably had different adventurous than Roxas, different fights, I don't want to see Roxas getting dissapointed or seeing getting hurt again.''
He learned how to use emotions in 358 with Axel and Xion... And only hurted him in the end.
Recoded, BBS he doesn't get a good end.
Roxas is one of my favorite characters in gaming wih one of the greatests story's I have ever seen. Rest in peace.
Roxas was'nt even a part in their life from the beginning. Didnt he get like. Illusionated into it?
Obi-YTP-Kenobi roxas isn't in BBS lol
your lord and savior Every version I ment Ventus to actually
Roxas is more Sora than Ventus, he just have Ventus appearence, but his was made from Sora's heart. If he was a normal simili, he would look exactly like Sora and have his memories. Ventus prevent that to happen, his heart was in roxas body and was blocking sora's memories. So Roxas didn't had any memories, allowing him to be himself and not just the simili of Sora.
If Ventus wasn't here, he would be exactly a copy pasta of Sora.
I always find this weird, to think that if Sora had loose his memories and was in the place of Roxas, he would have behaved exactly like that.
Roxas is just another Sora with another life.
Ventus is also the reason why Roxas has feelings (As to shown roxas crying when Xion dies in KH 358/2 days)
Best character, hands down.
...
I'm not crying, YOU'RE crying! 😭😭😭
Hehe,
Replica Riku would like to have a talk with you abiut the crying thing.
It's okay to cry.
People don't cry because they're weak, they cry because they've been strong for too long.
@@The_13th_Voyager
Dude
Okay, it’s my first year of college, and I have a fairly difficult and tiring job for a campus restaurant
And the classes I was not prepared for the workload
You said this
And something just…I don’t know how to describe it
Shattered? Reformed? Realized? I dunno
@@GoldDragon20 Like I said. It's okay to cry. It isn't a sign of weakness. But a sign that you've been strong for too long. Just let it all out, there's no shame in it.
@@The_13th_Voyager oh trust me I’ve already had a few moments.
I would've loved to see a roxas skin for sora in smash.
SAME DUDE
I WISH THEY DID IT INSTEAD OF THE TIMELESS RIVER ONE
@@Imora Yeah. I LOVE Timeless River but a Roxas skin woulda been WAAAAY better
He deserves to be his own person
In the spirits section, our boy Roxas is the legendary spirit! He's represented by a final form Sora dual-wielding the Keyblade and that sword that glows purple on occasion.
I guess, but since Disney allowed Nintendo to use Sora (and, as a result, other Kingdom Hearts characters) we have a chance to see Roxas as a fully playable and unique character in another Smash game.
The use of blue roses in the picture is interesting because they usually signify impossible or unattainable love.
"Forgotten days, a fading memory
Lost and no longer seeking one another
Desperately still, you're reaching toward him
Hopelessly certain you can mend the broken
Longing for a light lost in time, so distant" - Lyrics from Lizz.
A beautiful desciption for roxas .
Absolutely true
Roxas holds a special place in my heart as the first Kingdom Hearts character I ever knew.
Yes, the first Kingdom Hearts game I ever played was 358/2 Days.
OMG me to. My favorite Kingdom Hearts in order
BBS
Days
KH:3
KH:2 FM
KH:RECOM
KH:1
KH:DDD
I played the games released prior to 358/2 Days, so I didn't care for Roxas during KH2. After playing 358, Roxas, Axel, & Xion definitely became my favorite characters. I hope they get another game in the near future
My childhood mates was struggling on the xion fight I was like oh let me cuse I used to play the ds a lot when I was younger went into the fight took me a few tries did it then cried I was 7or 8 at the time now I am 22 xD
Probably the most heartbreaking piece of music in gaming
It really is. :(
@@Angel-mt7ok I agree, and Aerith's theme too.
"WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM?!?! You both... Think you can do whatever you want... Well I'm sick of it. So go on, you keep running!! BUT I'LL ALWAYS BE THERE TO BRING YOU *BACK!!*"
For those wondering, this is Drammatica - best of Yoko Shimomura version of Roxas. It's basically both Roxas and The Other Promise combined.
Merci je cherche depuis un moment cette musique 😅
You make a good other.
Sora: [visible confusion]
@@internalforce Sora: "Huh?"
Quote from roxas in kingdom hearts 2
🥺😭
Nuu, I was legit crying during this scene 😭😭😭
Manga version (I don't know if it's in the game because I've never played KH2):
Roxas: Why me?
DiZ: Because you hold the other half of his power...and because you are a Nobody.
Roxas slashes at DiZ, but fazes through him/
DiZ: Oh, sorry. This is just a data-based projection.
Roxas: I hate you...
DiZ: Well then...make sure you pass on that hatred.
Roxas: NO!!! MY HEART BELONGS TO ME!!!
That is almost accurate to Kingdom Hearts II, but it added a bit of extra dialogue and changed the lines. I have the full script word for word.
DiZ: At last... the Keyblade's chosen one.
Roxas: Who are you talking to? Me, or Sora?
DiZ: To half of Sora, of course. You reside in darkness. What I need is someone who can move about the realm of light.
Roxas: Why? Who are you?
DiZ: I am a servant of the worlds. And if I'm a servant, then you should consider yourself a tool at best.
Roxas: Was that... was that supposed to be a joke?
_[Roxas summons the Keyblade]_
Roxas: Because I'm not laughing!
_[Roxas slashes at DiZ, but he displays as data, so the attack phases through him]_
DiZ: My apologies. This is only a data based projection.
_[Roxas gets angry and slashes through DiZ' data a ton, only to be panting heavily when he disappears]_
_[DiZ appears in front of Sora's pod]_
DiZ: Come, over here.
Roxas: I hate you so much...
DiZ: You should share some of that hatred with Sora. He's far too nice for his own good.
Roxas: No! My heart belongs to me!
_[Roxas slashes through DiZ' data one last time before he disappears, and Sora's pod opens, revealing him sleeping inside]_
Roxas: Sora... you're lucky. Looks like my summer vacation is... over.
The Keyblade of Destiny The manga version added the extra emotion of tears as he expressed his hate towards DiZ which was good honestly. A remaster of 2 would be amazing
@@darkinsanity8125 Oh, yeah, for sure. But still, you have to feel bad for Roxas. All he wanted to do was be his own person and hang out with his friends.
Poor Roxas, my baby he saw so much pain :'(((((
I KNOW!!😰😭
Never thought I could cry for a videogame character. Then I met Roxas.
"It's way past time that you learnt what REAL HURT FEELS LIKE!"
....damn, even as some data, Roxas still has those memories of guilt from 358/2 days, it's heartbreaking.
I want this played at my funeral, and on my gravestone it best read "brother, husband, father, Keyblade Master"
Cringe
@@simonediliberto4314 I’m more cringe for not playing Kingdom Hearts. Better save up and play at least one KH game and earn that Keyblade Master on my stone as well
Damn straight
Roxas is the most powerful character when it comes to sadness in KH imo, I can relate to him and i sure many others feel the same.
Roxas: "This could have been the other way around. But it really has to be you."
Sora: Roxas, you're you. We're not the same. I wanted to tell you that. That you deserve as much as I do to be your own person."
Just.... The feels hit real hard with these lines.
Sora see, that's why it has to be you.......
This is easily one of the most heart breaking OSTs in the series
Roxas's theme always tears me to shreds. I love him with all my heart and I'm so glad he got to see Xion and Axel again. ❤
The amount of tears that want to come gushing out whenever I listen to Roxas’s theme, Xion’s theme, or even Ventus’s theme. Why do they have to make them sound so good yet so sad?
my neighbors dog died in my arms today... she was such a good dog.. she didnt deserve to be neglected.. for two days she was barking.. i thought he (the owner) was doing something with her but no.. he just left her chained to a fence in his back yard... i did everything i could when i saw her..untied her from leash and collar.. pulled her onto a dirty nearby blanket and dragged her into the shade.. wet her nose and paws but it was already too late.. she was gone... she was taking shorter and shorter breaths.. until she just... was still... god i cant stop crying... she didnt deserve this... she was so sweet and never shy to show her love.. a beautiful great dane, 3 years old and she was left in the back yard alone and in the heat with no water and scattered hard dog food... i did all i could.. rest in peace brandy you were a very good girl that deserved so much more... ill always keep your memory in my heart..
You are a good person, gave love to the dog at the end of life!
My dog passed just 2 months ago. I was extremely upset that she went away. It was like a vase just shattered inside of my heart. I cared for her like she was family. I let her lay beside me when she was scared, or when she was tired. I even played with her a lot. These past 2 months have been really silent. No constant barking, no frantic pacing on the stairs... it just feels... _empty,_ like a deep sleep, but with no dream.
I told a customer how I loved KH. She said the Disney stuff always turned her off. I said you’re really missing out. The story is emotional and beautiful.
But she is right even more in the 3
@@addzay3135if you don’t think the endgame of kingdom hearts 3 has some of the best content in the entire series I struggle to believe if you are actually a fan of kingdom hearts. Plus, the Disney worlds weren’t even bad; they were the most fully realized and explorable they had ever been in the series. Like the Disney worlds or not, the endgame of kh3 was beautiful.
@@Erikthedood My only problem with the Disney Worlds in KH3 is that Disney pretty much prevented Nomura from doing what he wanted with them and essentially forced him to copy-paste the movie story in some cases (like Frozen or Tangled).
Apart for this, they are easily the best Disney worlds in the entire series.
“Looks like my summer vacation is… over…”
*IT’S ONLY BEEN LIKE AN HOUR GEEZ MAN GIMME A MINUTE GAME*
(just going to script a quick scene here) [imagine this playing in the background]
*scene set: Roxas is drifting slowly down in a void of darkness, his voice is head*
Roxas: Where am I?
Roxas:Oh...thats right.
Roxas: Hayner, Pence, Olette.....
Roxas: Im sorry.
*enter sora in a ray of light*
Sora: Who are you?*
Roxas *smiles sadly* im just a boy who was never meant to exist..
Sora: Don't say that! No matter what, if you existed at some point, you had to have meant something to somebody, which gives you a reason to exist!
Roxas: Thank you..Sora? Will you let me stay with you here?
Sora: Of course..We can be friends
Roxas: Friends...(smiles and then slowly dissapears and the scene fades to black)
That just made me tear up with the most honest smile on my face .... Oh my god...
Wow im really suprised this got that many likes :P
jonothan icebane same dialogue from BBS Sora and Ven's light.
no way
I havent actually played BBS yet, so i had no idea XD
Aww :( Roxas is my favorite
I think....my summer vocations....are..over now
THE FEELS
This rips you apart when it plays in the fight against Roxas. He gives you absolutely everything he's got and holds nothing back, both because he wants to test Sora to see if everything he went through was worth it or not in the end, whether or not he will be able to have his vengeance on Xemnas for what he did to Axel and Xion, and also of course to unleash whatever rage his Nobody form allows him to feel upon Sora for being born. Be sure not to disappoint him.
who would dislike this music. like seriously people this is some of the best gaming music i have ever heard!
thumbs up, kingdom hearts!!!
like if u agree.

opps sorry i thought "key" might turn into an emoji

This is probably the only song that can truly express my emotions
“I want Xion back!
I want my LIFE BACK!!!”
- Roxas
Roxas is my favorite character of all time.
Honestly, Roxas was always my favorite character despite the fact he was only KHII's Prologue protagonist, discovering the truth of his existence making him all so much more tragic a hero. Even when I was a kid my heart was sufficiently hurt knowing my time playing him was so mockingly brief, but it was worse later when I learned his friends never truly knew of his existence. Tragic to a T, man.
S/O to Shimomura and Nomura for introducing young teenagers to high art.
knowing that there might be no real happy end for roxas in kh3 makes me sad...
you know he is just a piece of sora, yet i feel like he could have his own game series and be the main hero, he is amazing and i love roxas!
dumbshadow111 Roxas did get a happy ending in Kh3
Clexic he got the happiest of endings AS HE FUCKING DESERVES
He got a happy ending yer sora didn't
I know he ended up getting a happy ending in kH3 and that was amazing. But I can't help but wonder whether it just cheaply downplay's all his suffering just for some fan service. Like everyone loves to see a tragic character be happy again. But something more important is that character just being at peace. Roxas's final arc in KH2 ended in peace. And although i think he deserved to be with Xion and Axel.... i think the way they did it was just too unrealistic for a series that generally has come across as a metaphor for life.
The fact that roxas got a happy ending but sora didn't hurts a lot
This game series will always have a special place in my heart🥺❤️
RUclips you betrayed me! Why did you give me this 7 years late! I needed this
oh god :'( this music always makes me cry...
The best characters on KH history for me... when I've played for the first time KH2, I didn't play 358/2 days, but now I realize how much I love him
What I really love about the Kingdom Hearts soundtrack is that it's mystical but royal at the same time, truly a fairy tale kinda vibe.
Even when somber the piano is regal,
and even when painful the strings are slow,
the choir signs an elegy for
the boy who never existed.
During a DnD Session, my friend likes playing songs to match the mood. During a depressing, deep part that was meant for my character, he started to play The Other Promise.
It broke me.
I actually started to cry.
Roxas is the best in the series
I still cry to this day when I hear this song.
Me too
Why does this score always makes me teary eyed?
This is the best version of Roxas's theme in my opinion. I love it and this version makes me cry. Why haven't I seen that many videos of this one?
If I'm not mistaken this version doesn't appear in any of the games, it's a fan-made remix that makes only a few subtle but effective changes
This song is from the album Dramatica The very best of Yoko Shimomura... You must listen to it!
OH GOD, I'M CRYING MY EYES OUT FOR THE FIFTH TIME TODAY!! AND THEY WERE ALL BECAUSE OF THIS THEME!!! DX
When u finish the test in the last 5 minutes but there’s a back
There's no script you have to follow. The journal's the closest thing you've got, but that doesn't mean you’ll see the things it says. And you know, who really cares? Everything that happens here, everyone you meet, is an illusion --Roxas
With music and story themes as deep and heart breaking as THIS it's easy to forget that this is technically a Disney product.
when the title of the game has "hearts" but you have none:
KH3 SPOILERS
Roxas, Xion, and several other Organization members (only Xemnas and those two are explicitly confirmed but Saix, Axel, and Xigbar are heavily implied) are confirmed to have hearts, as nobodies can grow hearts by forming bonds with others. (Or in Xigbar's case by being the man behind the man behind the man behind the man.)
This is a beautiful emotional track, KH games have some great soundtracks
This is the kind of purity the world needs. All our hearts need to be purified to stop all this corruption
Just crying everytime i listen KH songs.
when I die, I want this music played on my funeral
1 year has passed and I’m still playing this
I want missing you on my funeral I mean just the name brings someone tears
Right now I feel alone because I feel I can't trust no one. This song hits perfectly right this moment
probably the part that always makes me cry is the very beginning of kh 2 when Sora is waking up and the last line Roxas delivers are: "Looks like my summer vacation is ...over". THAT LINE ALWAYS MAKES ME CRY SO HARD he didnt deserve that..im happy in KH3 hes back with his friends, once a vessel finally became a human!
My favorite character from my favorite game series of all time... so glad he is gonna be in Kh 3
It's a shame you don't get to play as him. It would be cool if Nomura makes it to where you can play as other characters (*cough*cough* Roxas *cough*cough*) in some form of DLC.
@@internalforce Wish granted.
Anyone else relate to Roxas the most? Just that feeling of not belonging anywhere really? And even if you do, it doesn’t last long?
Yeah. I have that feeling all the time.
Yeah… I played Kh2 BEFORE one so I played as Roxas first and he struck a chord with me… a VERY Painful chord
Best kh character
2nd best, Riku is #1!
"I owe my return to many, some of those people you knew"
"Ansem the Wise, Zexion..."
"And others too. It seems you aren't as good at winning over hearts as you think"
"I needed one last thing to come back, a connection. Sora helped me find my way back here"
Such nostalgia! Wish they had this on spotify😞
In 3 roxas's return felt really lackluster........
"Hey im back"
"Roxas!"
"My Turn"
*FIGHT STARTS AND HE ISNT IMPORTANT UNTIL A 12 SECOND CREDITS SCENE*
they did my boy dirty.
You can leave roxas and xion to fight saix roxas does insane amount of damage. It's a funny nod to the point in 358 when roxas leaves the organization saix stops him only to be left face first on the floor
Word to the wise (especially the Organization): Do NOT mess with the Key of Destiny.
lackluster? yeah definitely. but seeing Roxas, Lea and Xion hugging in that little bundle and then the credits scene with them, the twilight 3 and Isa all eating ice cream together?
*sniff*
worth every goddamn penny, I tell ya... ;~;
I feel like Nomura treats Ventus and Roxas as a one character thus tries to give them 50/50 of screen time.
Disagree, Roxas's return was quick, but it still did everything right and everything made sense, also, the idea of Roxas just being straight up invincible during the fight, allowing him to literally tear Saix apart, makes the scene worth replaying a million times.
Kingdom Hearts 2 was the very first Kingdom Hearts game I ever played, so I knew Roxas before I knew Sora. He’s always been one of my favorite characters, if not my favorite.
This beautiful piece of music i listened to when i was 13 during some hardships and some great memories, I am older into my adult years I just wanna thank the uploader for keeping this here it reminds me of how far i have come in my life
I could post a spoiler comment, but I decided not to. You're welcome. Kingdom hearts III proved to me that no matter how old I get (29) I'm still that 14 year old kid back when I played Kingdom Hearts. Don't miss out on this, your heart needs to experience it.
Same here, brother. The entire ride of Kingdom Hearts showed me a lot of things, but there are three that I remember most.
*1: Never forget the memories that define who you are. Even if you have to shackle your own heart, even if you have to find out the truth for yourself, don't lose sight of the person you're meant to be. Forgetting them might make you a better person, but when you're struggling to remember just who you are and why you exist, the memories will always come back to remind you of what you truly are.*
*2: Everyone has a heart. That doesn't mean they can't be friendly, but no one deserves to be called a Heartless. You just need to show them that the world cares for them and they can find a place in the world. Wherever it may be, that choice is up to them.*
*3: Every person you meet forms a new connection. The bond of friendship is a beautiful thing, and having multiple friends means you can never be sad or lonely. Your friends may be far away, but no matter what, so long as you know them, your hearts are always connected. If you sever the bond between you and those you care for, you'll drift farther away from them and into a dark hole you'll never be able to escape from.*
I have Kingdom Hearts to thank for showing me the strength of my heart and the understanding of each dilemma. The road may be dangerous, but I still believe that I can make a change in the world. So long as I continue to be who I am, I'll be the light of everyone's hearts, the strength to pull them out of the deepest reaches of the darkness. I want everyone to know me and be my own person. I want to make a connection with everyone I meet. Even if I'm a nobody in the world, I don't care. I'm proud to be who I am and have friends who care about me.
*_May your heart be your guiding key. You'll know where I am._*
They say Roxas is just a nobody, but to me, he is a somebody, with a good purpose in life.
Perfect atmosphere captured by the music and the art, truly amazing
Honestly KH is so amazing to play, I loved every character an their personalities, once you played them all, the heartbreak an hurt is real
♥♥♥much love for roxas♥♥♥
#helivesoninmyheart
cant wait for the 3rd kingdom hearts,i think roxas should be in it,at least see him for afew seconds
I mean, he did come out of a book in the DDD opening, for some reason, that gets me thinking,
what if Roxas DOES come back? And he becomes the 7th guardian of light, it's either him, Lea, or Kairi.
Roxas is by far the most tragic character in all of Kingdom Hearts considering he lost both his friends that day then found out he wasn't suppose to exist.
Roxas has the roughest life: Being kept in the dark by the Organization, Unable to trust his best friend (Axel), Having to destroy Xion, and along with Namine, being used by DIZ (Ansem The Wise) then discarded for Sora.
このBGM大好き❤
When you hear this you know 2 things
Your going to have hell
Your going to cry
800 likes and 5 dislikes. I guess 5 people just can't help but give into the darkness.
I first saw Roxas at the end of Riku's Story in Chain of Memories and intrigued by who this mysterious kid was, and with the release of KH2 I was formally introduced to a character i knew I would love.
Its been 8 years since the first time i listen to this masterpiece and i still listen to it right now thats insane
1:32 i love the part where the angels sings in the background
I understand his pain...because honestly I don't have a good life but I keep pushing
Be strong like him
Exactly^ yes he's been betrayed, he has experienced loss and he's even been manipulated and decieved, but he DID NOT let all that make an emo crybaby put of him! He grew a pair and decided to fight back! Yeah he is still shaken by trust issues but he STILL tries to be brave and even confident and remains a loyal friend to his day ones! Basically, he may not take jack shit from anyone these days, but he hasn't forgotten how to be a good person to those who deserve it.
If I had enough emotion left in me I would probably be crying
Almost 12am and im over here tearing up over this beautiful piece of music.
Roxas is my hero
How to trigger tears in KH fans
