13:30 not sure if you’ve made this connection before but it’s one I read from Tumblr long ago that I really enjoy: The TVA trio are reflections of the three princesses they visit first. - Terra gets possessed by Xehanort just as how Aurora gets possessed by Maleficent. - Ven falls asleep and is kept safe in a chamber just as how Snow White falls asleep and chills out in a glass chamber. - Aqua leaves behind her armour and her keyblade for her friends just as how Cinderella leaves behind her glass slipper for her Prince. All this coupled with how their representative colour palettes conveniently line up with the Disney princesses’ stations of awakening just ✨tickles✨ me.

I 100% agree with you Pat in regards to KH3. I waited a long damn time for the game and it very much lived up to my expectations

@TraverseTown123X 2 года назад

My faves are KH1 and 0.2, they definitely set the emotional stakes of the game better than the other ones, less concerned about literally telling you what the story is about or recapping, and more concerned with putting you in the space of the characters. KH1 in particular is brilliant if you view it as something that Sora literally saw in a dream before he goes to the Dive to the Heart, and then "wakes up". 0.2 is good because it's more concerned with telling you how Aqua is feeling about Ven/Terra than recapping precisely what happened to them.

@TraverseTown123X 2 года назад

That said, my fave moment in all of them is definitely the stairs sequence in KH2's.

@ha1vorsen 2 года назад

Passion is even more synchronised with the opening than Sanctuary. Namely during the ending, where the lyrics translate to "Under the beautiful blue sky, we slept forever", which is exactly what happens on screen before the cut. Or "If we move forward, will we ever meet again" when Sora and Kairi become separated in the middle of the intro. I don't know exactly how KH3's opening isn't as well-timed and synced to the music as KH2 though... that's been my number one praise for it ever since it released. Dive to the Heart shattering, the absolute entirety of the Destiny Island sequence, the beginning and end of the 358 sequence, then Sora fighting each antagonist, they set up with the song so perfectly. The only time where the intro falls is in the final battle, but it's still at the least, very much synched up with the music. Also, 358/2's DS opening is much different than the ReMIX version, superior as well. A shame they didn't upscale it like they did with Re:coded, as the ReMIX version is just random clips with no relevance to the song playing over it.

@paris-1911 3 года назад

@AnthonyH0395 3 года назад

Adding into the greatness of the DDD opening on 3DS. When Mickey does the split when Roxas is created, he not only splits, but his original self fades out when it happens. I might be thinking too into it, but I like to think it represents Xion in how she is also a version of Sora during that time and fades out of existence entirely.

@OmniGeno 2 года назад

I watched this video for the first time right after starting KH3 for the first time (a month or so ago, so I wouldn’t be spoiled at all). I watched it again just now after completing the entire series, and it hits even harder. Don’t know what my ranking would be, but I love your analysis of your list. Great job!

I'm very glad you touched on all the exact reasons why KH2's opening is the best. I'm biased about it for sure, but it has a cohesiveness that just stands above the rest. Nothing beats the pixelated CoM transition or Kairi and Namine voicing the lines of the song. Just untouchable. Although I think DDD's has the best CGI in the series.

@Enixgeek 2 года назад

Words cannot describe the validation and dopamine boost I received when KH2 won first. Sanctuary slaps harder than SAC and FMF/DTT! Fight me! That and, there's just something so memorable about KH2's intro. Sora leaping off the tree, the fight through rising falls, Riku turning into Ansem, the door to Kingdom Hearts, the infinite stairway, Riku v Ansem and Sora v Marluxia, Naminé's room, Sora flying over the ocean, the Destiny Island sunset, and the Roxas reveal. each equally give me goosebumps every time. KH2 earns it's top spot. Not just because it's intro is iconic and beautiful, but because it precedes one of the greatest games made for the PS2.

@turtlepack2023 2 года назад

So, to be honest, until about a year ago I didn't even know much about KH1 Final Mix, let alone the extra secret boss. So whenever I would see that scene, I just thought it was something cool and symbolic, like when Riku descends in Hollow Bastion and becomes Ansem. When I first saw the cutscene where that actually happened (just a few months ago), I was quite shook lol.

One of the defining moments of my childhood was seeing the intro for KH2 feature Namine, Marluxia and CoM as a whole. Being one of the 3 people who played Chain of Memories before KH2 came out, once they said Sora would forget the events in Castle Oblivion I was convinced that KH2 would start on the windy path again while pretending CoM never happened, so realizing that those events I played through would actually matter was just the most exciting thing to me.

I would like to say the DS version of the Days opening is the superior version. The timing and pacing for the remixed version just doesn't compare with it. For those who may not know, in the original DS version, when the beat drops in the song is when the camera zooms in on Axel's face, which comes directly after Saix's portion. I don't recall exactly what the remix version is like, but I highly recommend you at least watch the DS version on youtube if you can. It's such low quality which is so sad because it's such a good video!!!

@0yourmom019 2 года назад

When I was little.. like literally 3-4 years old possibly younger since kh1 and 2 belonged to my father... i would always wonder what that song was at the beginning of kingdom hearts two. It always made my little toddler brain go fuzzy and pay full attention to the cinematic,,, which was something that was hard to get me to do back then. I understood absolutely none of it,,, but sanctuary has stuck with me along with hikari throughout all these years. While hikari makes me overwhelmingly emotional and brings me to tears whenever I hear it (that's not an exaggeration. I literally cry every time I listen to it), Sanctuary is just.... amazing. there's no other way to describe it for me. Even now, I'm blown away by the 2005 visuals and all of the story tie-ins that I wasn't able to appreciate when I was younger. it's so great. it was masterfully executed.

@chipskylark7249 2 года назад

I'm a girl who grew up with two brothers. We love video games, and growing up on pokemon, we often assign each other certain characters and stick to them for life. For example, when we play Pokemon, I must always get the water types, my next brother grass, and my eldest brother fire. Every time. And we apply this kind of assignment to pretty much every game we play. With that being said, kingdom hearts has been our SHIT since I was about 4. The two boy one girl dynamic (kairi sora Riku, axel Roxas Sion, etc.) always made us feel like we were fated to play it lol. I was probably 6 or 7 when we got birth by sleep and let me tell you- There was nothing more hype than each of us picking one of the characters, beating the game on our own, and then coming together and telling each other how each person's file went so we could piece together the story as a group. It was just- the coolest thing. I was aqua, my next brother was ven, and my eldest brother was terra. The three of us, three characters, and one PSP. Probably some of the happiest times of my life.

Theres a weird thing with the kh1 and 2 themes where like. I got into this series in 2018 with the ps4 collection so I don't really have nostalgia for the series but something about them makes me nostalgic for that time period. Also I listened to the 0.2 theme like 10 tens before actually starting the game when I first got to it so I'm glad to see it here.

Ven running from his past, Terra running from his future in the BBS opening

When I went to the late night release of kingdom hearts, I kid you not the guy behind me wanted to start playing simple and clean to see how many people would start singing along (mind you most of the people there were older fans so it was funny)

I remember when I was young I went from 1 to 2 so when Sora got trapped in that bubble at the end I thought they were showing Namine off to be this character who was deceptive between her goals and what she looked like which I suppose is /kinda/ what happens in re:chain? KIINDA?

The best KH openers operate on a sort of dream logic where everything makes sense as long as you were there from the beginning, but are still enjoyable if you weren't. I've always thought the editing in the best ones was peak quality, like the simultaneous Sora/ Marluxia Riku/Ansem fight, or the quick cuts at the end of DDD; they sync up to the music great, the rotation of the camera adds extra dynamism, and the cuts are placed so that an action from one moment carries into the next on a different character. It's hella slick animation and not as appreciated as it really should be.

Sanctuary is so beautiful. You're right, KH2 deserves that spot.

What made DDD's intro even more special was how it used both of the screens on the 3DS, with Mickey doing the hand wavy stuff at the bottom and the video proper happening above. Pretty neat. Edit: oof, and you decide to talk about that just after I finish and posted the comment.

Dream Drop Distance op is still the best one for me. It's so nostalgic and beautiful.

The one for the first game will forever be my favorite. When I was little I used to deliberately start the game over every single time just to dance my butt off to Simple and Clean.
