Kingdom Hearts - Ranking All 157 Keyblades (The Ultimate Keyblade Tier List) 

since canonically the different keyblades are actually just changes in appearance brought about by attatching keychains representing the wielder's memories, the presence of platform exclucive keyblades with the color sceme of their console implies that Sora is aware that he is a video game character and knows what platform the game is being played on.

When you struggle to remember a keyblade's name you could say it was a... Lost Memory!

3:28 Chocobo keyblade to me was supposed to represent the OG Buster sword from Final Fantasy 7. Yes it look like they just added a slab of metal but when you look at it closely you can easily compare it to the buster sword because the buster sword was a huge chunk of steel that was really good to use. I put that on the A tier because it showed representation of the creator all time favorite which is final fantasy 7

Im genuinely surprised that Axel’s keyblade was placed higher than bond of flame 🤯

“I’m gonna base the ranking purely on design” 2 seconds later “The design isn’t great but it’s iconic” Sorry I had to

"Sly Raccoon" As a fan of the games, this hurts me. It is pain, to see the Cooper family legacy so easily forgotten.

I feel like I’m the only one who likes simple Keyblades like Follow the Wind and All for One.

I'd actually like to see you cover or talk about Days' keyblades

Fenrir is actually a motorcycle key and named after clouds motorcycle

Glad to see fully upgraded Fenrir in S tier, that thing looks like a tank and its awesome.

Im not really a collector person, but if I had the money, I'd love to collect replicas of keyblades. 6:40 you could say, he couldn't.... key-p up with the keys... I'll show myself out.

Yes! I have been looking forward to this! This was my most anticipated video from you and it is finally here!

Sleeping Lion’s always been my favorite. Glad to see it made B Rank at least.

My favorite is two become one I love oathkeeper and oblivion but I especially love two become one since its a fusion of those two keyblades. It always made me wonder if roxas would be able to fuse them himself and use it

I can imagine how mind-numbingly excruciating this list was for any person to do. But still, props to u Cynical

The most fun part about this video was tryna see if i can guess the names of the Keyblades before u! Thanks for another cool fun video Cynical, ur the best! 😁👍🏽

Everytime he curses and the Donald duck sound effect goes off is freaking hilarious lol

I legitimately enjoy metal chocobo. The chicken chain is really cool and the key is old looking.

Ever after keyblade is literally a stabby stick. How could you not love it?

I love kingdom hearts and I was waiting for someone to rank these keyblales and you did a good job keep up the good work.

Awesome content Jared, taking me down memory lane with the KH series all the time and I’m blown away that KH 4 is coming out lol it’s wild

The Gullwing keyblade from kh2 is so 🔥 design wise. SHOULD’VE had more utility in game. Criminally underrated

CMON… way to Dawn is an S. When I first saw that in KH2 I was blown away & jealous as hell

The fact that you put Aubade in C tier hurts 🥲 For reference, Aubade is a type of poem about departing lovers. Which I feel fits really well with Days and Roxas and Xion's relationship. Seeing as in the end of Days, Roxas was forced to part with Xion.

Cynical's meltdown about that Star Seeker take is my favorite part of the video lmao

Decisive pumpkin should’ve been S tier it’s one of the widely most used keyblades

Ultima weapon in kh 3 should be an S-tier

Definitely can’t show my girlfriend this because she’s a Tangled fanatic and Ever After is her favorite lol. I also think The KH3 Pirates Keyblade deserves more love as it represents the world very well, has excellent theming, and is the same wood color as the Black Pearl.

If we had a Yozora themed Keyblade that would be so dope.

good to know this list isn't based off of use or anything just his personal looks

Loving the content bro

good video and good work on it :)

Does somebody know what the actually tier list is called in tiermaker? I want to do my own tier but I don't seem to be able to found it in there.

Watched the vod for this but came to give the video a view and like anyway. I actually didn't realize there were so many cool looking keyblades from 358/2 Days. Good stuff!

I never knew I needed a video before but I'm so glad that I found it

Me: remembers almost none of the keyblade names. Also me: oh that's photon debugger.

True Light's Flight, Rejection of Fate, and Lunar Eclipse had SICK ass designs from 358

End of pain has to be one of my favourite keyblades ever. It just looks so cool and menacing.

Absolute legend for moving up Spellbinder. I wrote that.

So what would Bad Guy Breaker 3 be? I also love how there are so many Keyblades, you could give each one to one of the original Pokémon and still have leftovers.

can someone send me the link for this tier

>title has "Ranking All" >says "not all the Days ones" in video *cries in three five eight over two days*

DUDE, I HAD ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA THERE WERE THAT MANY KEYBLADES. I KNEW THERE WERE A LOT... BUT I DIDN'T KNOW THERE ARE 157 OF THEM! YIKES!

Yo the donald screams at 19:03 have me dying

I saw the tier list on twitter and said there better be a video

Is there a link to this tier list so we can make our own list?

I always really liked Mickey's keyblade.

I will say we have some different tastes on some of these, but it was fun to watch you try to sort through them all 😂. Thank you for the fun video. Stay well out there everybody, and God be with you, friends. ✝️ :)

I would like to try this list out for myself. It would be great if you could provide a link to the tier list.

45:20 coming in with the bass blasted wonderland battle theme, god tier

why wasn't missing ache with the days keyblades and darkgnaw with the Terra blades?

Bond of flame is my biggest pet peeve with KH2, its easily one of the coolest keyblades in terms of both appearance AND story significance. It's literally Axel's chakrams linked together in the game that arguably has the 2nd biggest focus on roxas, and IMO there was a ton of missed opportunities for key blades in KH2 in the same theme as bond of flame. What I mean is that each org 13 member should have had a key blade themed around them or their weapons. But also I think each keyblade should give you access to a MINIMUM of 1 new unique ability. I dont mean like the abilities we got either, the passive bonuses are nice, but I mean that each one should have a unique spell or reaction command tied to it. For instance, bond of flame could have had a unique fire spell which you could only cast and slot while using that key blade. Something like a giant fire tornado or several pillars of flame, similar to the apocalyptic flame spell Sepheroth uses in your fight with him in KH2. There are tons of cool ideas you could throw on different keyblades, others could be left with just the normal bonuses, but canonically speaking, Keyblade weilders, even noobs like young (KH1 and 2) Sora, are like universal power level guys. They travel through space and time and fight everything from basic heartless, to soul devouring abominations, to even the gods and titans of various worlds. Its a common occurrence for them too, they fight opposition like that daily. The fact is that they're busted strong, particularly at magic, I know they arent technically wizards or sorcerers, but thats only because they focus on quicker combat magic instead of long-winded incantations or complex rituals, in terms of just raw magical power, they're all in the top tier right from the jump almost (it took Sora like 2-3 years to catch up to Donald, and he's one of the strongest wizards in history. Needless to say, there are a LOT of story related reasons to give Sora access to more spells than he gets. KH3 definitely moved in the right direction by giving us the ability to level up key blades, though some of the transformations were a miss for me, and removing drive forms was just... Well it wasnt a great idea IMO

I always loved the metal chocobo because it was just a big slab of metal cut out to be a key. Tell me about the design just struck me as simple but effective.

Funny how all those discreet and darker Keyblades that I've always thought looked amazing were automatic D tiers for you. Like Keyblade of Heart and Follow the Wind for example.

Anyone got a link to the tier list?

It’s interesting that the name of the Kingdom Key in the JP version of Kingdom Hearts is “Kingdom Chain”

Thank you for putting a stop to Sweetstack slander.

Always like using mysterious abyss, feels like become a sniper with blizzard magic

Mike, sorry for my previous comment. I honestly agree with a lot of your takes on these keyblades. I just hate that I can't see the damn things

I think this would make a good theory ... remember in kh chi you could max out your keyblade and it changed to its final form of the key blade for example kh2 clouds keyblade has a final form in kh chi which makes it look way cooler with a wolf in the hilt ... what if all keyblades had a final form

Im gonna also add this comment on the new video. But ! I honestly like when you talk about whatever YOU want to talk about. Wether it’s crash , sly , a new game. Who. Cares , it’s YOU . And that’s what makes it dope , nor kingdom hearts. Tho I love kingdom hearts

I loved the Chocobo Key, Its the buster sword in Keyblade form. Hence the holes cut in it.

Dangerous game: Take a shot every time he says "key".

Your brain is like a harddrive, mine is like a dusty old library; plenty of room to spare for it all, but good luck actually *finding* anything.

Some of the X keyblades (the ones introduced before Unchained) actually have FIVE tiers instead of 3. Unchained and Union X only used 1, 3, and 5. Also, the umbrella is missing from Days.

The way to dawn - rikus keyblade I love it soooo much 🤩❤😁

Could be my kid spirit. But I loved the Metal Chocobo BECAUSE of its stupidity. Felt nice smacking heartless with a brick stick.

Wait, was the fact that counterpoint was in Union Cross foreshadowing it Spirit tie into the story of Dream Drop Distance.?!?!?

This tier list literally made my chest hurt. 😂

Man the key to heart is my favorite of the kingdom key style designs. Man I feel sad seeing it place so low

The rumbling rose got me to TWTNW in my first playthru lmao

damn you should do a smash or pass on all 157 keyblades

6:37 Gonna need a pretty big ring for all these keys.

I love the key blade of heart tho!!! I love the simple design and lack of chain and also the heart it has. So sad for D class

Thank you for this.

Calling Mr Mew "Mr Mewo" that kinda cute for a Error.

The way i rank keyblades is "how much it looks like an actual weapons" and "would i feel cool killing somebody with it" So all the overly detailed and colorful ones with clouds and sparkles look disgusting to me. They look like blowup balloon toys that id hit a 2 year old with because i cant hit them with an actual metal pole. Therefore metal chocobo and jungle king are in S Tier for me

We have *very* different tastes, lol.

What about the KH3 pc keyblade?

The Chocobo keychain is supposed to mimic clouds buster sword

Bruh. I can’t believe this. Jared just fatshamed multiple keyblades

also has Dharkon's eyeball

30:15 I actually own a Flame Liberator. So cool. Breast keyblade I own

dude your all good like i doubt some people looked it up to tell you

Bro, Metal Chocobo in E?!, that's an insult for me and my favorite Keyblade...

Alot more hot takes than I expected. I dont think a crab at the end of a blue stick is a C, but whatever.

Way to dawn, the literal GOAT keyblade not in S tier? I don’t know if I can finish the video….

So on the original release kh I was around 10 and had just beaten ff7 I loved the metal Chocobo learned to fight Riku 2 whilst blocking then 2 strikes only died 20 times my first time

Faithful Crest: “that’s a sex blade” 😂😂

My favs would have to be: Bond of Flame, Two Become One, Kh3 Ultima Weapon, No Name, End of Pain, Crown Unlimit, the Void Gear and the X Blade

Next do the blade spawn animations tier list

Six minutes in and I’m full Arthur fist. Olympia, Spellbinder and Lady Luck in C tier!?

Sleeping Lion is easy S Tier and no one can tell me otherwise

Btw didnt you forget the fungus keyblade from kh2 final mix?

I remember first discovering Lady Luck. It is definitely one of the better keyblades in KH1

The people crying in chat that "your tier-list sucks" have obviously never heard of opinions.

Jungle King is the only saving grace for like the first third of the first game

OST tier list next?

Missed the Nintendo Switch Keyblade, I like that one

The Keyblade of Hearts slander is insane
