Kass

He is SO FLOOF and MY FRIEND and I miss him and his (not accordion) bandoneon playing and he's just a pretty blue birdie who is also A Dad of 5 girlies. Anyway, I MISS HIIM.

His theme is a banger and he gives you advice and helps Link out in the shrine quest and he plays really cool music. He's also a BBB, big beautiful bird. 🥰🥰

Donald Duck

we love one angry tsundere duck who will only heal you after you healed yourself

Like the regular D*sney duck but with 200% more Power of Friendship

Chocobos

You want to ride with your Chocobo into the wide world, into the sunset, after a wonderful camp meal you fall asleep under the open starry tent at the warm campfire leaning against the softest feathers of your Chocobo, you ride up on the hill with the rising sunrise, over the whole span of the world. You want to take your Chocobo's wings in your hand and dance with him across the meadows. You are both free and the world is at your feet. Nothing can take away your joy. Some chocobos can use magic, some can climb mountains, and some even have the ability to fly! The birds are mostly used for riding from a to b, but they can also be summoned to help and kick around in minor battles. If you need a certain character rather than a species, there is a Chocobo simply called Chocobo in the chocobo series. https://finalfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Chocobo_(Chocobo_series)

Staple of the Final Fantasy series as a whole, generally just silly :]

#Sora’s encouragement is my other favorite part of this#i need more scenes of Sora and princesses kicking bad guy ass like in shrek 3 (x)

@gemstonerose It's my dream to one day (somehow) animate the Princesses of Heart to that scene from Shrek the Third - y'know, THAT one 🤣

when people refer to canon story-relevant kingdom hearts games as ‘spinoffs’ it makes me sad not only for the obvious reasons i always say but also bc like man i WISH this series had spinoffs. imagine what they could do if they had permission from nomura to truly go off the rails and ignore the greater canon for a second and just do some fun whimsical plotless thing in an alternate universe. imagine a fishing/boating game on destiny islands. kh fighting game. it is an injustice that we have been deprived of kingdom karts. can anyone hear me

My flavor of neurodivergent is understanding the plot of Kingdom Hearts.

#to xehanort's credits he wasn't trying to erase darkness like vidar was, #he understands that darkness cannot be erased and that's the reason he grows to resent eraqus later in life because he refuses that idea, #xehanort felt that there was no balance, #that people's obsession with light is what was destroying them and he's literally right lmao, #he wanted to summon kingdom hearts to create a perfectly balanced world but he was messing with a force much bigger than him, (x)

“no emotion is more potent than animosity” GODDDD baldr hitting it on the head with how darkness cannot be defeated because the hatred that allows for battle is in itself darkness. there is NO way to defeat darkness with anger and violence even if it is directed AT darkness bcuz it’s fighting fire with flames.

riku is the only one who ever “defeats” darkness because he stops fighting it. he only overcomes it by accepting it as part of himself and no longer directing animosity toward it. and thus, it stops growing. he stops feeding it by hating it. all the dark road kids see it as an outside force, a parasite: eraqus says hearts are free of darkness until it burrows its way in.

hatred of darkness begets more darkness and acceptance of it allows it to remain in tranquility so it can NEVER be removed and so many characters ruin themselves in a wholly pointless endeavour.

hell, dark road even tells us directly why xehanort’s plan to rebuild the world with kingdom hearts is pointless; vidar tried the exact same thing, and came to realize that “the world will be reborn in darkness,” as baldr says. it has existed before the world and it will exist before every new one.

#just thinking about things, #I feel Verum Rex's inclusion makes a bit more sense looking at it this way, #and Nomura is using TWEWY after all, #so if one video game he worked one is getting a world then why not another?, #of course it could very well be that he's salty, #super salty, #ultra mega salty, [x]

Actually, y'know what? This might explain why Nomura was so determined to finish Versus XIII before getting started on KH3...I mean, besides the obvious.

Something to mull over. What if Verum Rex isn’t because Nomura is salty, but that he planned on using Versus XIII in Kingdom Hearts III onward this whole time? So when Nomura was kicked off his own project and it was changed to FFXV, it donked everything up. Forcing him to create the Versus expy to try and put things back on course.

Goofy: Let me see what you have? Sora: A KNIFE! 😃 Goofy: 😱 NO!!!! Donald: 😨 Ah phooey, why does he have a knife-

i was looking through my photos for a pic of sora so i can draw his outfit on someone else and the only in-game pic i have saved of him is this edit of him with a knife

it does work as a reference for his jacket and gauntlets though,,,,

Nobody understands Kingdom Hearts that well cause everybody compares it to shonen anime when it's actually a magical girl anime because it has:

-A protagonist who is an ordinary lad who got given a special power that could save the universe

Teammates that the protagonist can lean on and who help the protagonist with said special power

A love interest heavily involved in the plot that both motivates the protagonist and is motivated by the protagonist

A monster of the week format that has its own standalone conflict that eventually leads to the next major plot point in the story

Overarching themes about love and friendships and connections and identity

days remake be like
