    Yeah I’m getting weepy watching this. The music and the soriku of it all. The power of friendship so strong you can defeat a literal multidimensional ending threat 13 times and counting. Bonds strong enough that even when the memories of your friend are wiped from existence, you cling to the barebones of what’s left of them in your memory.

    Ok, the analysis and the music accompanying it already was giving me chills; then you “pulled a Nomura” and needless to say the only reason I didn’t collapse to the floor in shock is because I’m at work rn on my lunch break and I can’t make a scene.
    I’ve seen the comparisons of Dearly Beloved and the moment in Dream Drop has always stuck with me but it hasn’t been until recently when another video - and now this one - has really let the text become clear to me. The games’ main theme is their heart song/their hearts singing in tune with one another … oh my godddd, my own heart feels like it’s going to burst with emotions.
    I wish I could put into words more clearly but please know this is definitely a video I will be rewatching multiple times.
    Thank you for sharing ❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏

      Here is another fun time. Sora and Riku's Resonance is reason why when Sora "sees the Heart' in Something, it becomes Real. True Love's Resonating Love into "Fictional Things". The Light is the Words of Song, and that Song is God (Kingdom Hearts) and that God is Love. And Darkness is the Stage the Light shapes.

    What a beautiful video.
    Since I knew that Sora and Riku are the main focus of the entire series, I always wondered how the usage of Dearly Beloved and it's variants factor into that. I'd call myself a music enjoyer, though I'm no expert on the topic and your video made me realize just how much Sora and Riku's love is entrenched into the whole series.
    Aside from that, it was also very interesting to see how the different aspects of connections are tied to specific variants of Dearly Beloved and how light and darkness connects to all of that.
    And my mind was blown you explained the difference between diegetic and non-diegetic music. Like, the probably first music Sora and Riku officially hear in this franchise is associated with their connection. With their hearts being always in tune. And it's Dearly fucking Beloved. As a waltz. And it's even one of the most beautiful and serene versions of it. Wow.
    Thank you for this amazing analysis.

    This is so brilliant. I keep rewatching it. I hope my friends get into the franchise soon so I can share this with them.

    Dearly Beloved is also in "The Key"(Fight against Venitas), Vector to the Heavens, and a Fight to the Death. Sora and Riku Resonance in all these/ Light and Darkness to control Kingdom Hearts, climbing from Earth to Sky, and escaping Nothing in the Kingdom Hearts of Peoples' Hearts. hmmm..

    absolutely on point, every single moment cheering your essay on. amazing job!!!! also, why, yes, shera is exactly like kh, especially kh1, if we condensed it in a single short series, yeah!!! (almost to a ridiculous point, same goes to various degrees with madoka magica and Luca)

    When you explained the difference between Diegetic and Non-Diegetic Music which I didn’t know but had inherently recognized. It clicked for me and mentally I became the meme of the guy on the floor who yells on his knees dragging his hands down his face and passing out on the floor
