"Roxas, Don't be sad. I came from you and Sora. I am you, the same way that I am Sora. You'll forget me, but the memories themselves will never go away, memories of you and me will always be together, forever. Inside him" -Xion
Imagine this: you're brought into an organization for sole use to be their puppet. Along the way, you find out that in reality you're basically nothing; just a vessel holding the place of someone you don't even know who's real. You try to run away; one of your best friends hurts you and brings you back. You then find out your existence is hurting one of your best friends and making him weaker. You have to turn against both of your best friends to accomplish your true mission. In the end, you let your other best friend essentially kill you for the greater good, knowing that he wouldn't even remember a single trace of you afterwards. You 'die' without even being given the right of being remembered. Now Xion might be hated by some people, I don't see why. She's courageous and loving, and she thought she was nothing and gave herself up for the greater good. If that's not beautiful and courageous then I don't know what is.
Everyone talks about Roxas and his crappy life. Look at Xion! She tried hard to be her own person, but when she learned the truth she was torn with doing the right thing (going back to Sora), or staying with her friends. In one of the secret reports Axel even states that he can't kill her. So when she's absorbing to much of Roxas' being into her she forces him to fight her. That is sad.. and responsible at the same time. She willingly died for the greater good. R.I.P. Xion you'll be missed :(
23 people were so sad that they started to cry, but on going to hit the like button their eyes were blurry, so they hit the other button, thinking it said "Dis I like"
Xions theme is so beautiful ;-; I think she was the best character in the series... Wonderful voice actor too, it suited her. Seemed really... timid and scared. I don't understand why people would hate her. Sure, maybe she might've been too depressed and timid. But think about it, if your life was at risk, wouldn't you be too? Trust me, this is coming from an AkuRoku and RokuShi fan... I just really hope Xion can come back in the next game. And she'd have a happy ending, along with Axel and Roxas. Come back, soon, Xion!
***** I know. At her final form it went like this for me: Me: HAH!!! FINALLY I'm GOING TO BEAT YO- Xion: Don't hold back! Me:..... Xion: That's it! Me: WAAAA SHE'S MY FRIEND!!!! You know, one of those moments where you forget it's a game.
I remember listening to this exact video when I was like... 11? 12? That’s 10 years ago. I can’t believe it I had so intense emotions about smth while I was this young... It is amazing.
Xion... you may not have been whole but you still had a heart.. gone but NEVER forgotten... (by her loyal fan base) .....and roxas we love you 14th member
***** well, the reason she even was a she or anything more than just a puppet was because of Sora's memories, and as it is well known that Sora is the link between many people's memories it makes sense that Xion took a form from those memories
I miss Kingdom Hearts. I miss that point in my life when I ran to the store with my mother to buy KH2, came home, and played for hours on end going on a journey with Sora. Glued to my handheld watching Roxas live out his days with the Organization. And most recently (2 years ago) quietly observing the relationship of three best friends doomed to be separated. I think I need Kingdom Hearts back in my life. Hello Dream Drop Distance :)
I am so happy this is something I’ve been listening to since I was 13-14. Now I am 20 and really glad I have this song in my heart. It is so beautiful!
Lol I’m not even the same person anymore, read this and was super confused because I know absolutely nothing about kingdom hearts….. this was a shared account between a friend and me and I happened to keep it
xion is one of my favorite characters along with ven and roxas, respectively. I love all of their themes and i just love how their story is and its sad that they all have... those endings...
Xion and Roxas has gone through so much together that its so hard to explain :/ I know they are fictional characters but in a way, i feel connected with them-along with other characters throughout the series.
Listening to this song makes my throat tighten up like I'm on the verge of crying... It's just so full of... Longing and sadness, like someone very old is quietly musing about their life to themselves... Alone... That's what Xion is. Xion's can't even be immortal in people's memories... It's so cruel... Ahhh why can't be the little nobody trio be together again?! *sighs* Hearts can be so cruel...
my mom heard me listening to this the other night and now she's obsessed with all of the character themes. she was like "i cant believe a dumb video game has such amazing music" i was like no.. if you knew the storyline you'd realize these songs fit the game perfectly
hate it when everyone thinks that xion is aquas nobody or xion is sora herself. xions just a replica(or a vessel what ever u call it)and she just absorbed sora's memories of kairi and that made her look like kairi only roxas came in and changed the appearence a little. thats why her bangs are different and her hair color is black
Kelsey Curles Xion is only on 358/2 days , that's why you dont know her i guess ^^ I believe ( not sure , i have only played at kh1 and kh2 ) she is a part of sora but i don't know more lol
Kingdom Hearts isn't for everyone, now I freaking love all the games. But it's nice to see people give credit where it's do even if they don't like the games.
Kingdom Hearts. Just those two words are enough to make a fan smile. This series...as cliche and corny as it might sound, its beauty is beyond words. The best series I have ever played, no competition. This is the type of series that makes grown men proud to say they've cried for it. Days could be spent explaining its beauty and depth without so much as scratching the surface. The music, characters, plot, gameplay, story progression, everything, is just perfect. Just...Kingdom Hearts.
This may sound cheesy but... Kingdom Hearts is one of the greatest games I have ever played. The music is beautiful, each moment of the game filled with both joy and sadness. All the characters are memorable. And this song goes to show just how truly beautiful this game really is.
This is pretty much the only song that makes my heart ache a little. I usually could care less if a character dies; however, Xion is a special case. She knew she wasn't meant to exist, so she happily accepted her death. She died with a smile on her face knowingly that the memories of her would fade with her...Xion is definitely the most tragic character I have come across.
People will say that we are childish for crying over what happened in this game and that this song can make us cry, but the case is not that it is just a game. It is a story that has both it's beautiful and fun times but also the sadness and sacrifice needed to help others and stop the darkness. To have such a powerful effect on us shows that this story has empathy and gives us messages that makes us discover our real selves. That's what the song means to me really.
I didn't experience the feels of Xion's death too much because I was scared to finish KH 365/2 days because after I finished KH2 I was so sad and depressed that I didn't want to complete any other Kingdom Hearts game because I didn't know what to do with life after finishing such a great game.. Kingdom Hearts forever!
"For fifteen years you took care of me, loved me, played with me, and made sure I enjoyed my life in a world not meant to house me. I'm not a mare of many words, but I felt you needed a written version of it so you will know it was all real.... I'm not sure if I will remember any of this or not, but I want you to know that you did a darn good job of raising me. ...I hope to allow you to keep our photos; our memories, with you so that you will never forget. Again, I love you, and thank you."
Listening to this before you go to sleep. Making you want to cry after the shit day you've had. Knowing there will be another day for you. But not for Xion. :'(
Kingdom Hearts is the best game I've ever played. It's heart-warming, touching, sad, and yet happy at the same time. Kingdom Hearts also has parts just want to make you cry. Even the characters are great role models. Sora is kind, and his light shines brighter than even the sun and stars themselves. Kairi is a nice girl, and doesn't want to feel like she's being saved all the time. She wants to join in to help her friends. There are many other characters connected to each other in a way.
'No Xion! ...Who else will I have ice cream with?' To those who find that line cheesy or awkward.....that's all they knew, was each other, and what they enjoyed together. I lost a friend to a car accident at a young age, and we played N64 together all the time. I felt the same way, and I never touched it for 7 months, up until we moved somewhere else and I moved on.
Man, the KH series sends you spiraling into sadness and sorrow. Sure there are happy parts and stuff that I enjoyed, but Birth by sleep and 358/2 made me cry, and I'm a freaking guy. These games tell stories like no other game I've played before. Always been a KH Fan. Always will be
The sad thing about Days is that the drama has the hardest edge of realism in the series So much sadness like this happens daily - people die, friends fade, we lose ourselves - all deeply personal and horribly stinging to people who experience it. But do people remember it? No. Should we remember it? Most likely. But what matters the most is sometimes remembered the least.
If I ever have a little girl with black hair and blue eyes, I am naming her Xion, and she will wear a pink bow, take ballet lessons, and I will bake her cookies everyday, and shower her with so much motherly love so she can be the happy little girl she was meant to be... I LOVE YOU XION.
When I first saw Xion as just a hooded figure I thought nothing of her. It was around the time she started leaving shells by Roxas's pillow when he was comatose and she disappeared because she could no longer summon the keyblade was when you truly started to feel for her. Then when you had to fight her I was so sad because she had such a tragic and yet understandable story. She was truly the one in 358/2 days with as close to a heart as you could possibly get, I wish she didn't have to die.
the song really gives you that feeling of something that seems so close yet so far away. so real...and yet it's just a thought...but you cry that it's fading, going away. as though it is a real person, and to those two...it was.
This series is beautiful beyond compare. To those who havent played, it would seem like dramatization saying that a game would affect the entire world, but to us who have played it, we understand. It may be a game, but the effects it has on the people who experience it are very real. This series...to call it a "masterpiece" would be insulting to just how truly marvelous it is. You can keep your Call of Duty, your Halo, your GTA. I will stick with my dearly beloved Kingdom Hearts until the end
Such a sad theme, Xion's story is probably the saddest story in Kingdom Hearts, well besides Aqua, who lost all her friends because of their choices and choices others made for them.
While this game had the more repetetive and slow gameplay from all the ones I've played, the story was worth going through it for. I was 12 when I first played this and it is still my favorite KH game gameplay aside. Roxas, Xion and Axel's story is so heartbreaking... even more so when you add the fact that they were so close such amazing friends. You really grow attached to these characters, and in the end you have to do what you'd never want to do to a friend. This game, defines KH for me because of all the emotion put into it. You feel, with the characters at least my personal experience did.
Xion is a replica created from Sora's memories, specifically his memories of Kairi which is why Xion resembles Kairi. Xion isn't a nobody; she is memory manifested into a physical being.
Why did you have to post that?! Now I'm bawling my eyes out!! But thank you for posting it. It just proves how much Kingdom Hearts has had an effect on my life.
he did cry, as it is usually not working for nobodies to have feelings of regret and sadness. Roxas felt both and did cry, seeing Xion dying in his arms
my friends who know kingdom hearts say this theme fits me perfectly...and i'm just like "Well...i can see why you think that..but no" and then they explain why and i'm like "My keyblade is clearly oblivion if i had one..." and then they're like "THATS ANOTHER REASON WHY THIS IS YOUR THEME" but this is the best theme in kh in my opinion =n= idk how it's mine
listening to this makes my heart ache in sorrow... imagining how Xion felt when she was 'dying' in Roxas's arms, remembering the last moments with her best friends, wishing to undo what she committed.. By the time she was gone, the last thing Roxas can remember from her, was her name.."Xion.." This shows that despite them not having hearts, Roxas, and possibly Xion, out of the whole organization, showed some remnants of having emotions, thus having a heart (even if Xion was just a puppet. =,)
