Mysterious Ephemer Saves Sora's Life Kingdom Hearts 3 English 

I like to think that the keyblade that Sora is riding is the Player's Keyblade

AveryScarlet thats so meta

My name was on there guys hahaha

this comment didnt age well....

ITS THE HOLY ephemera!!

I can picture Oprah screaming at her audience “YOU GET A KEYBLADE! AND YOU GET A KEYBLADE! AND YOU GET A KEYBLADE!”

Nope cuz I didn't bother with the mobile game lmao

And we’re all dead

a dead Keyblade Wielder ...

Na you Xehanort

Golden comedy

I don't get what this is about but I'm still laughing!

Felicia Yaovani ? That doesn’t make sense Btw KHUX means kingdom hearts Union X

big raid battle

The funny thing is, one of Xehanort's final boss fight move is to steal Sora's light away.

Kartik Aman Saraf what they tried to do with this was everybody who played union x the old keyblade wielders was us were the ones who saved sora and destroyed the tower

That’s really cool!

this was alos the thing thatw a shintet at that teh dandiions ar supose dto help the keyblade wilders of the future in times of ned

Man eriquas was just watching transformers as kid that's where he got that line lol just changed it to avoid plagerism lol xD

Love when he shows up :)

Exactly right. There was a competition in Union χ where the top 300 players would get their names in KH3, so those are the names you see here, but you're right about all of us being there. I'd be lying if I said I don't tear up watching this, knowing what this scene represents. It gets better now that the Keyblade War is currently taking place in Union χ, now at Part 3, so we will soon see how the war ends, and how this Keyblade Graveyard came to be.

"That was us" Calm tf down, it was just a video game you really had no part in.

Me too bro

The entire war was one massive rollercoaster of emotions

Imagine the emotion in those whose names are on the list 😭😭

Wow, pretty awesome stuff :)

Snarky snarky move.

I thought it was super nova

Mind is blown

The unions key, the strongest of all

and he can't remember Skuld and Ephemer ever since the Ending.

@@champthephantomthief793 Yep, 'because of Darkness (KHUx), who still seems to be inside him (Re:Mind cutscene).

majin buu amen to Yen Sid 😂

@@cotabaro2351 They meant the Mysterious Ephemer.

That's because KHUx felt like a true side game with no connection, with a story that's going on forever! I hardly played it because it just felt like a fun little Kingdom Hearts-esque game without knowing it (apparently) contained important plot stuff to the series. I gave up on it because it felt like just a lot of grinding and it didn't make all that much sense (why are we visiting the disney worlds? are all the characters ancient by the time kh1 happens? why is donald, goofy and mickey there?) and all those things made it feel like it wasn't cannon. Then by the time 2.8 happens, they release Back Cover, which I just took to mean, here's all the important stuff that actually DID happen in the mobile game and was just satisfied with that (to a degree, anyway). Then THIS scene happens. I know Ephemer from like ONE scene in Back Cover. And then I'm like... "wtf is going on? is he a ghost? is he ancient? why was Ephmer, a guy from one scene in Back Cover shoehorned into this?" I ended up just assuming it was just one of those unexplained plot points like how they just yada yada'd over Xion coming back suddenly with very little explanation except that they started the replica program again and.... that was it! I take it Ephemer plays a bigger part in the mobile game, but considering how many "episodes" there are now, I just don't feel like going through all that so will probably watch the scenes online or read a wiki page, but I think making KHUx THIS important needed to be made clearer as this now leads to Continuity Lockout for a lot of people! If it's just a shout out to those who played the mobile game but ISN'T important then.... it's still confusing and kind of random. At the VERY least they needed to show more of Ephemer in Back Cover or explain about him more in the "previously on" section that's in KH3... Hell, even if someone new to the series got the Story So Far collection, they STILL wouldn't understand this part!

I am 100% sure we are heading into the foreteller's and dandelions direction because of the epilogue.

@@seanstewart2001 I hope I can help you a little with your questions, first of all my english writing isn't my strength so sorry if for my spelling and redaction I will try my best. The true is that all side games of KH saga are important to understand a little the plot (and even with that sometime there are more questions than answer), I learned that with KHRecoded. I started playing KHUx and I find it very funny and I love that I have my own character. But yes KHUx is important to the plot because you can know the past of some on the characters (Example: Ventus, Marluxia, Larxene, Laxu/Xigbar). The reason you can go to the differents disney worlds is because the five foretellers knowing that in a near future there will be a war (the famous keyblade war) trying to save the light of the world create the projection of the worlds in the future, so they can train keyblades wielders and collect lux, so the worlds you visit are just a projection of the futures worlds (thats something that your Chirity explains you) and not the real real world. Ephemer is important, because he is one of the chosen one to form part of a group called Dandelions, that its a group who will not participate in the keyblade war (and it will be a mark of the end and begin of a new world) but be one of the survivors and thus mantaind the existence of the keyblade wielders. Ephemer with other four people (Skuld and Ventus are there) are the chosen ones to be the succesors of the five foretellers. Thats all I can tell you, because I still playing the game and still don´t know all the story, but I hope I help you understan a little about the game and this scene in KH III

@@seanstewart2001 Back cover wasn't really meant to be a substitue for KHUX, it was meant to tell a different side of the same story from the Foreteller's perspective. However, it skips over A LOT of content. (Also I can totally understand why you quit playing, you don't actually meet Ephemer until quest 345-ish? So yea, I definitely reccommend checking out the cutscenes online.) As for why Donald n Goofy/Disney worlds are in the story, they explain that the Disney worlds/Disney characters you visit/meet in the game aren't actually real. They're a projections of future worlds created by the Book of Prophecies. The heartless are projections as well, and they're used so that the Players can obtain lux. As for why Ephemer didn't play a bigger role in the Back Cover movie, that is because like I stated earlier it was meant to tell the Foreteller's side of the story, and the movie only covered what happened up until the keyblade war. Ephemer only starts to play a much bigger role after the war takes place, as the new head of the Union Leaders. In fact, most of the things we now know about Ephemer and his role were only revealed after this movie was released. KHUX updates monthly, so I definitely recommend checking into new story updates online every now and again if you're really interested. (You might even find a few familiar faces in the series).

Im wondering what would of happened if ventus had seen ephemer, would he remember him?

For me I knew. I just didn't know you could move until I realized I could while my health was low lol

TonyChen05 it took me three tries to realize you could move during that fight. I felt so stupid

I was to busy looking at the names

I was focus in the names, XD ... almost died

Lmao exactly what happened.

Pancake reference

Okay, *I believe you*

So do I :)

1 Year later and they baited us all big time lol, xehanort isn't the player, the player is the one that raised xehanort.

Honestly.. since we know that the Player was reborn and died this time on Destiny Islands.. I am leaning more and more towards Sora being their next life. Which makes this scene even better! I mean.. Ephemer didn't die that day at the keyblade graveyard. But he was there, in a blinding light, to save the Player. That would explain why Sora has a connection to Ephemer, strong enough to give him a face and a voice, eventhough he was neither in that battle nor did he become a dreameater (as far as we know).

@@matics28 lol, true, this kind of aged in an awkward way😂

@@UmikoChiyo It seems very possible. To be completely honest, I would say that if Player was reborn as Sora, and Sora is one of countless decendants of Ephemer that remain in different worlds, it wouldn't be too farfetched to believe Sora is both the reincarnation of one of Ephemer's friends, as well as his decendant, which is why Ephemer might be with Sora. Another possibility is that Ephemer is Sora, and just doesn't know that he was speaking to himself because it's more about memories of who he used to be, and hasn't yet remembered or assimilated that fact, so he treats a "past self" as a different person. In fact, it could be more or less like the case of Roxas, where Roxas was only a part of Sora until he gained spirit and soul within that body and became a different person entirely, so it's quite possible that if Ephemer were to be a past self of Sora, if Sora decides to say "no" and wanted Ephemer seperated from his heart (assuming my hypothesis is correct), then, Ephemer might end up getting "extracted" from Sora's heart and become a seperate person from his reincarnation, assuming that it makes sense. I mean, Roxas is essentially inside Sora's heart, being part of Sora and possibly part of Ventus to an extent, so, who's to say that a past incarnation within Sora's heart can't become a completely different person at some point? Granted, regardless as to weither Sora is or isn't "this or that guy's reincarnation", we can all agree that this is purely speculation, so we should always take things with a grain of salt.

@@jonathancarrion0809XXI of course it is purely speculation and I love it! :D I would at the same time love and hate seeing Ephemer come back like that. Love, because he is great and I want to see more of him. Hate, because if everyone can just come back through a reincarnation they can just seperate from, death has even less meaning than it already does. xD I like the descendant theory :) though I prefere to view Riku as part of Ephemers bloodline and Sora as the reincarnated Player. Like that they have ties to both of them and I really like that. I am so curious if any of the theories turn out to be true. I really can't wait for the next games =)

True. Btw wonder how old Ephemer.

only the 300 ppl that qualified

Oh, If I knew my name might've appeared on this battle, I wouldn've played that game.

@@soralight_x Hi again!

@@lusaminesrevenege Hi

I Even saw my name I started crying 😭❤️

I had to think about it. And after reading other people's thoughts. If Player reincarnated into Xehanort, then Ephemer reincarnated into Sora who ended up having Ven's heart.... someone who should have memories of Ephemer....

@@shortboypinoy but it is confirmed that sora is a normal boy

Ephemer unknowly killed the player twice.

@@latinalover26 Regardless, Sora still has Ven's heart. Ven is someone that has memories of Ephemer. This would potentially allow Ephemer to travel across time.

Ephemers dead ?

⁠​⁠@@psyilux They’re talking about players! Those of us who played the Union X game! Sure not all of our names was in the game, but still! It was US that helped Sora. Not just Ephemer. Our characters died and helped Sora.

@@JenniferPoole.33272 for real wait what I NEVER understood that- is that canon or like one of those “the friends we made along the way “ type of thing

😭

He is not dead, he the third one in sora's heart

We never see xion leave from his heart, like we saw roxas and ven

@@dannyrise2716 it's been confirmed since Dream Drop Distance that it was Xion, lmfao.(Hell, technically DAYS confirmed it.) That idea is completely baseless. Xion left Sora the moment their Keyblades clashed. KH3 itself, and even Nomura in the ultimania confirm that it was Xion, One who's been in his heart for most of his life: Ventus. Roxas, and someone who's been there for almost as long as Roxas(Could be literally nobody else, but Xion.)

Me

Honestly that's why I'm even here. I watched a "KH3 without context" video with that one small clip and was blown away when I realized I recognized his voice. XD I swear I have such soft spots for the pale-haired spellcasters of Tales...especially the chefs. (Loved absolutely everyone in Zestiria, really)

What the hecko!?

OK I BELEAVE YOU

Good job on winning I wish I tried a little harder to win

Finally he said those in the epic way

Wait, really?

@@annagrace2604 bruh Don't you know they asked community for their name to be put on the command list

@@GrindyVine You think I'm that dumb?

Only 500 people from the contest got their names up there

​@@annagrace2604They really did, Even Goku was there... No seriously there was a name tag that said Goku

lolol😂

What about mom luxu and the foretellers?

Okay rephrase it.. The first keyblade master after the war XD

@@skymaiden16 first new keyblade master

@@robertbartley2409 Oh yeah!! Thats what i shouldve said XD

@Mehreen Shaikh please do and send me it haha

Especially our old friend DUALSHOCK 4 Battery Low...They even included him.

Not just Ephemer! Us too! Look at all the names of the players from the game!! Even those of us that didn’t make it (obviously) we still helped too since we played the game! ^.^ Btw wonder how old Ephemer is

When "epic" things happen randomly and because the game must have happy conclusions, it is not that good at all.

something just popped in my mind WHAT IFFFFFFFFFF Yen Sid knows the content of the book of prophecies and mantaining the order in the light side because everything will be fucked up if they know i'm reaching too much, aren't i?

The first time they didn’t have lingering will step in to defend them from terra-nort...lingering Will was only made aware they were there because namine found him and told him...namine says she will get lingering will to help Sora after everyone died the first time ...

😂😂facts

They are the names of 300 players who managed to qualify for an event of KHUX.

@@soul6733 what was that event and what did they have to do to qualify?

@@GawainW Be the top players.

Bit late but this is how it worked. It was random draw and you could get extra chances by logging in during a period of time, beating the event, placing top 300, and have a guaranteed name by placing top 10. Basically, this is a "thanks for bankrolling this game for us" because the only way you could get the last 2 was to be a whale.

Vulpes keyblade master gang😎

If this doesn't count*

Christian Hope Cortado It’s not that. Sora has to always have the spot light because he’s the main character. This game missed a few good opportunities because of that.

I hope so as well

Maybe. Given the khux finale.

He’s dead.
