KH3's Opening Syncs Perfectly With Smash Ultimate's Lifelight 

God don't get me started on the foreshadowing power of Kingdom Hearts! And now it bled over to Smash Bros too, the title was Life *light* ! Sakurai was trying to tell us from the start

@@annika3265 Life light: I sleep Life DARNESSWITHINDARKNESS: Real Shit

you cannot get something so heavily tied with the lore and meaning without it being intentional

Haha lol

Except it isn't.

This song also lines up with his reveal trailer this has all been planned and it's perfect

Lifelight literally has so much lore behind it It's ridiculous

Good soup

I'd say like a soda to me but yeah, It's perfection!

Yup the wine may take a long time to be great but in the end it was perfect

Sakurai? I only know Raxusaki

No, no he pulled a Nomura

I honestly see Nomura as Xehanort and Sakurai as Eraqus. What Eraqus was showing Xehanort at the end of KH3 was his set up for Smash lol

TIME TRAVELS

"It sure is. It's too perfect. Who'd ever believe it? Which is why you idiots never saw it coming. You thought you were off doing some kind of crossover, right? Well, test this-how come you're wearing the same alternate skin if you're already back in your own game? You are not gonna wake up, okay? Look-there's no canon versus non-canon anymore. There's just you, us, and this."

Yes indeed

Especially when the reveal pretty much matches up EVERYTHING in the trailer announcement Down to the hidden smash results and "Unnamed past"

The lyrics for the whole song work well for KH as a whole. I especially like "On that day, when the sky fell away, our world came to an end" like it's describing the start of KH1

This was foreshadowing this entire time

@@redram6080 When I saw notifications for smash reveal reaction videos with Sora in the thumbnail, at first I thought it was just for the meme. Y'know, just a joke. So when I saw your comment, I did not realize that *holy $h*.t, it actually happened*

Nomura and Sakurai must already worked this out ... These trolls! Unbelievable!

"Distant sparks call to a past still unnamed " That basically foreshadows Xehanort being a reincarnation of the KH Union protagonist.

Ikr? It's mind-blowing

I think that was the plan all along. If it was then Sakurai is a genious, if not, then he is the God of coincidence. I'll put him in dictionary

@@braylenswain4017 well, considering there was no specific mention of Sora, my guess would be is that the last trailer was going to be the way it was no matter what, and whatever Mario would've thrown, would've had something do with the character that was joining.

No, it wasn't. Sora wasn't even decided anywhere NEAR the time the song was made

@@vavo6909 I think Sora was decided before this song was made because he won the Smash ballot and he wanted to honor and follow through with what Satoru Iwata wanted before he passed

@Edward Scissorhands yeah I saw. When to worlds clash ig-

It really does! XD

How about now lol

Before sora got in smash this comment had 94 likes now it has almost 230. Why are you people here, go buy the sora dlc. Edit: as of June 1st 2022, it has 700+ likes.

I'm honestly beginning to think this was all planned in advance. I think Sakurai already got the rights for Sora before Smash Ultimate released and he planned the game (or at least some aspects) in advance for Sora as the final reveal. It's just way too much for it to be a coincidence. Lifelight is more a Kingdom Hearts song than Smash, evidenced by this video. Even more, the song fits perfectly with the kh3 opening, both in length, in score, in changes of rythm, the crescendos, and lyrics. AND some lyrics don't just fit to KH as a whole, but fit specifically for the scene of the opening being shown at that exact moment. "In our eyes, did a fading sunrise in the dark? Glimmering shadows" is sung when they show Xehanorts eyes and change scene to a rise in darkness and shadows. "every soul contains a glimmer of light" when Ventus' heart falls to the Destiny islands, not just turning from darkness to the light of the paradise, but also Ventus' heart is pure light that takes refuge in Sora's. "As fate spins a thread without end. New life draws its first breath. Blossoming in a soil reclaimed from the past. Where destiny holds fast" this ALL fits the story of Roxas, BUT the things that fit perfectly with the opening are when Roxas appears exactly as the lyrics say "new life draws its first breath" and when Sea salt trio splits up and Roxas goes after Xion as lyrics sing "where destiny holds fast". Finally, the lyrics say "Light will guide you, on your way to the ultimate fight" just when Sora opens up doors of light for himself and the rest of the guardians of light and they walk through.

Painfully so. "Where destiny holds fast." :c

You are absolutely right

true

Ventus too

@@TrueLadyEvilChan “blossoming in the soil reclaimed from the past” Bruh its like this is literally made to explain Roxas and Ventus

I see we’ve all come back to this one last time

It happened... It actually did

@@kingleonidas2182 indeed we have, but not for the last time

I came back to this one. I agree with your every statement? Its like the song is singing exactly what’s happening in the cutscenes plus its implications to the lore and story is mind blowing.

@Edward Scissorhands Characters from different worlds interacting and coming together? Travelling between different worlds? The unification of different powerful franchises? TBH, I'm surprised I didn't see it sooner, even though I'm not a Smash fan. But frankly, no WONDER I liked Lifelight! IT'S FUCKING KINGDOM HEARTS!

Wasn't the past unnamed the poll results?

How did Mario realize that the tiny flame was Sora’s Keyblade and how did he wield it?!

Honestly, Sora was a miracle if I'm being fair from what I've heard. Getting Sephiroth and Hero after Cloud was a pain in the ass to get back for the game was a miracle in it of itself, but for Sora to come shortly after Sephiroth, now that. That in it of itself was something truly impossible. It's one of those rare times where you can say that it was basically winning the lottery.

I want Sora in smash, but this a biiiiig no, they did not, Just like the Shantae thing with the op to the new game

Bro.

Sup

well we have news for you...

The worlds of Smash have been connected. Tied to the darkness. Soon to be completely eclipsed...

It's incredible that everything is perfect sync/ lyrics OMGG Even the pacing is better there than in the official opening

Also, the smash ultimate opening links to sora’s reveal trailer. Fascinating.

The virgin Kingdom Hearts 3 vs The Chad Super Smash Bros Ultimate

Congratulations!

How happy are you feeling right now

Amazing

Fair enough

Director of Mark Studios Pretty much my reaction lmaooo

sadly that will never be a thing

0:40 “our world came to an end” It looks there’s a meteor heading towards him/earth(idk if he’s on earth I’m just guessing also sry idk his name I’ve never played KH3)

@@Nanocide_9 Oh yes it dang will.

@@Nanocide_9 Why?

And in this universe, you are 100% correct…

@@jokelethkurueisner9229 Only Sakurai and Sora could be able to unlock Disney's greedy heart

Indeed

There is no such thing as a coincidence.

I don't think it is a coincidence

@@gaming1zanagi-1999 now that Sora is in Smash. Me neither

@@redram6080 yep, plus there are many theories about Sora tbh. Like the date sync is one of them. Another is how Sora is in smash replies on twitter got removed. Samus hunter's prediction that it would be 3rd party character and the fact that Sakurai said he will give us the time and memories that we enjoyed in smash for the last character. What does it translate to then? Welp first off regarding of Samus Hunter's claim that it would be third party character most likely which eliminates every Nintendo first party character being revealed and secondly what Sakurai said plus Samus Hunter's prediction backs up with each other as so far what Sakurai hinted at could be Chrono Trigger since it is related to the concept of time but since Samus Hunter said it is most likely 3rd party nintendo game Chrono from Chrono Trigger is eliminated since it is first party games thus so far there is only one game that use the heavy concept of time and memories but also third party game and that is KH. At first I thought it was Master Xehanort since he can manipulate time itself but knowing how it ended up with hero then Sora fits the category.

Also his Dad

It's starting to make a whole lot of sense why the sora reveal was a sequel to the very first teaser for smash ultimate

I still think that Sora was planned from the start of Ultimate, and made the game and story go around that in every way, I mean, Sora was the most wanted character in Smash 4 Ballot, way before Ultimate being developed, wouldn't be a surprise that they made Lifelight based on this intro as a real clue for what was coming

Especially now

As am i.

Not just sora. The whole game.

@@camharkness Most people will just play as KH3 once and then just decide it's a bad character, but there will be some who main it and enjoy it a lot.

Yes

Yeah, about that...

Yep

@@redram6080 Sakurai flexing his inner Nomura

Always has been…

perhaps

I'd read it

@@akumaisreal2090Me too

Maybe.

And he uses No Name that used to belong to MoM in the past (maybe I'm stretching it lol)

That's because it was meant to be. Two years later, Sora is the final fighter for Smash. It's been a long wait, but holy shit are we all happy.

And now we know why

ありがとう

Thank you! Japan and Japanese people play an amazing cultural role in today's world. Respect from America! 🇯🇵🇺🇲

You know the KH4 trailer? I'm calling it now, the 2 robed figures are actually sakurai and nomura

yes

**GUNPOINT** always has been

mama mia...

Now that Sora is in Smash I don't think it's a coincidence

What the hell? How did you even notice that?! I can't not see it now

Well, I have some good news.

We have a theory about it... :)

Ahaahhaaha! Good news for you!

I love the fact you came back to your comment to add that edit after Sora was revealed. 😂

I have never seen a more powerful three-word epilogue than "Edit: Holy shit"

Even freakier now that we know Sora is in smash. I'm starting to think it wasn't just a coincidence

I absolutely *REFUSE* to believe this is a coincidence now, Nomura and Sakurai planned this

We’re sorry we didn’t give it to you sooner

The first time I heard this song I was like..."This song sound like its come from Kingdom Hearts" and now all the sudden Sora in Smash because of this fitting song.
