13:25 He's literally just taking the headset off. They just didn't animate it.

This art style is a lot easier to buy than what they did in KH2. Huge improvement.

I feel like the whole "Sora is Yozora" thing would have made much more sense if they just made it so that Yozora changes forms in his own game. That could have also given Sora a moment similar to Buzz in Toy Story 2, where he sees a whole bunch of himself in boxes on the shelf. Overall, it's just a plot point that could have been communicated more clearly without ruining the intrigue or mystery.

Yeah, you make a good point about Elizabeth.

I love how angry Vexen got when he realised the truth about the chest.

Robin Atkin Downes, who voices Luxord, also voices Davy Jones.

Elizabeth always sounds slightly Irish in this.

Releasing Calypso didn't quite work, she just became giant, started yelling in a weird language and created a maelstrom after turning into crabs and dropping into the sea.

I never knew you could find a lucky emblem there, made out of rock.

Xigbar is voiced by James Patrick Stewart, who was the season 7 big bad in Supernatural and...Private in the Penguins Of Madagascar series.

Mickey's clothes changed because Nomura didn't design an outfit for him in KH1. 😂

It's frustrating just how many times I had to re-assemble Olaf, even after how much it said it was 3/3.

The distortion on the singing makes them sound a little like Bo Burnham in All Eyes on Me.

The reason Goofy had the idea to jump out of the window is actually cut from this part of the game. In the movie, Goofy tries to break down the door to the tower, zooms right to the top, out the window, is trampolined by the tree, kicked by a cow, and is slingshot back in by a windmill.

The worlds are dreaming. We find the keyholes to wake them. Presumably, we are "ending the nightmares" these worlds are having. The world map here does not seem to be canon as Sora and Riku are surprised when they land in Traverse Town again.

Where was Jumba keeping Experiment 221?

I know this was put out a while ago but just want to say thanks for this playthrough, really enjoyed watching it and now onto watching the chain of memories lets play!

I'm not crying, you're crying! Man these scenes still get to me, lol. Critical mode is no joke in these fights, and your team members are sadly not much help since they die so quickly in Critical. Except Roxas, at least he has your back, haha. It's kind of refreshing to see Roxas fight Saix. One of the scenes they didn't include in the 358/2 Days movie was when Roxas leaves the Organization, he ends up crossing Saix and ends up fighting him. I kind of wish there was a little banter between Roxas and Saix because of this, but Roxas talking smack to Xemnas will have to do, haha.

This is my favorite segment of the game, all the cool battles and the Organization's exits~ Long-winded post ahead: "Better to die than to be killed" Says Xigbar, the master of manipulating gravity. Was pretty dramatic though! (Off-topic but man youtube's new layout, the comments section is so limited now) I like how Riku Replica decided to go out on his own terms like than and for selfless reasons, especially since the replicas can be manufactured again later. Namine would have to wait yes, but they could make more. 'The world already has you', and deciding to leave it at that, made it sad but touching. Axel/Lea just be the Meta Guy in this game, from calling out the game's plot twists, saying Big Bad capitalized, to his speech to Xemnas. When the game first launched, the sphere-of-lasers thing was so tame and slow it felt like "He just took a lil damage" than a relentless barrage. Wowza the updated version felt ruthless like it should be! Sora's main power is the Heart, its less tangible and more of a spiritual thing. Roxas's power is kicking everyone's ass with zero quarter given. He can 100% solo Saix as others have pointed out :D Saix's exit was so sad to me :< Yes I know he was a jerkwad for the entirety of the series but still Vanitas was also a bit of a jerkwad, but I love how defiant he was to the end. Sora's "You can choose who you are! BUT IT HAS TO BE LIGHT!" though x'D 'What I am, is darkness' - remember that line 😉 Seasalt and Wayfinder Trio's having such reuinions 😭 I remember seeing people theorize about the Guardian being Terra / his heart / etc, it being confirmed was like YEEEEEES to a lot of us :D //GRAND FINALE INCOMING AND IM HERE FOR ITT //

The reunions in this part of the game make me very emotional, I hope you are enjoying it a lot. In the "death" (let's not forget that those who were nobodies will become human again) of each member you can see how the individual cutscene that is played as a farewell gives a small clue to the future of those characters when they become human again. I hope that in the future of the saga they delve more into their stories, especially those linked to Union Cross.

Despite the player doing most of the work I assume Sora is canonically only helping them out while the others do most of the hard fight which is why Sora can continue while they need rest. Otherwise it’d be strange for Sora continue on and on battle after battle without a break.

I just love those fight ! My favorite is the Terranort/Vanitas fight. The return of Terra as to be one of my favorite scene of this game 😊 Luxord we don't know what he did exactly but we know that it will be important in the future. For Repliku he is dead. He sacrifice himself to protect Naminé, in the end he really did that promise. For why Xion is here it will be explain in the DLC, basically all the tiny question like that left in the game after you finish it will be explain in it.

Of course it would be these two. Similar to Riku's fight against whom he thought was his past self, this is in many ways a fight with their own personal demons and the challenges they failed to overcome years ago. (The fight with Lea, Xion, and Saix is also personal, but in a way that feels different.) A tip for surviving those AOEs in the future, because there will be more: Ariel gives you lots of I-frames. LOTS. Nope, Sora had no idea what Vanitas looked like. (And once again I am struggling to take an interaction between these two seriously due to the image in my head of the Poor VA going back and forth between them. I know that's not how it actually works, but....XD ) I do like that we seem to have finally gotten a conversation between Ventus and Vanitas where the latter is not mocking or belittling the former, but responding with some calm sincerity and asking for acceptance. I love the music building as Terra-Nort throws them around with the chains, followed by the total drop for Ventus to speak. Chills every time! Yupp! All this time, that Guardian has been Terra! (Believe it or not, that is NOT the biggest identity reveal in this game. Just you wait!) There had been some speculation about it up to this point, but I think for me the thing that made me start wondering was in Dream Drop Distance. At the end of Riku's fight with Ansem, there's a moment where the Guardian floats there and then slowly reaches out towards Riku. Riku holds his Keyblade out in front of him in response, not in an attack stance, just horizontally across his body. The Guardian pulls his arm back, and after a few more seconds, vanishes. It was....not a weird interaction, but it was one that stuck out in my brain because it was the first time we saw the Guardian doing anything independent of Ansem. Aww, more tears......Not that they're undeserved- these three have been separated in the games for basically the same amount of time as the gap between the release of BBS and KH3!

There's a lot of things we don't know about Luxord yet.....like, really pretty much anything aside from him enjoying games. I'm curious to see why he seemed so helpful there at the end. Aww, Marluxia remembered his sister! Man, imagine how different some of these events would've gone had he recalled her all this time! You might not've meant to use it, but it worked incredibly well. Even Larxene cannot withstand the power of cute animals. Xigbar is awfully confident in his supposed ability to wield a Keyblade. "Why did he do that?!".........Do you remember what Xigbar's abilities are? Nah, that wasn't OG Riku at all. They pulled Repliku from his time at Castle Oblivion instead of Riku. "Do NOT tell me that's Xion!" Ok....should I tell you it's the pope? Ahh, the reunion scenes! I love these so much, even if they make me cry.... If you look closely, you can see Xion's Keyblade shaking when she's pointing it at Lea. Such a great, tiny detail. And there's the music kicking in! This is my favorite track in the whole game. It starts with Xion's theme during the cutscenes, then once the fight with Saix begins, combines the pieces used for Roxas and Xion's boss fights to make a new track, titled "Hearts as One." There's not really an exact translation of it, but if my understanding is correct, -ran is a very rude suffix to address someone with in Japanese. Xemnas is essentially saying that Lea is so unimportant here that he doesn't even need to consider eliminating him. Remember the replica that Demyx dropped off at Radiant Garden? They found a way to put Roxas in there! I am SO FRUSTRATED that they did this to Kairi. After all the hype about her finally getting to join the fight and get properly trained as a Keyblade Wielder, they just totally undercut her development as a character. What was the point of it all, Square?! "I was jealous." I mean, we all knew that, but still, good on you for coming out with it. (Also what is it about characters dying/disappearing while being held that gets me every time???) THE HUG!!!! (Ok, this is just over an hour in, so I'm going to make a second one^^; )

Great video. The next episode should be the actual finale. I'll be looking forward to it.

1:02:55 - LOL! Just hit him!

"Roxas is tough as hell." you say. Yes, he has the sort of AI that Riku and Aqua should've had.

So I’m guessing that dark guardian Ansem was controlling was terra heartless all along and since his body was taken by Xehanort no nobody was created that’s my theory anyway

37:30 - Repliku sacrificed his own chance at life so Namine could have one. And since he ripped the other Repliku from the vessel to empty it for her the original Riku basically witnessed two of his clones dying during that scene. I absolutely hate that this was what they chose to bring the original Repliku back for. He deserves to live as much as anyone else. It's so messed up to me that all of the Soras and Kairis get to live, but Repliku doesn't.

If you noticed during the second stage of Saïx’s fight, Roxas takes absolutely no damage at all unlock Sora does and Xion. Not only that but you can actually let him solo Saïx without laying a finger on him. It’s a fun little detail that kinda shows how powerful Roxas is even when he’s just a second party member. Also the reunion scene always makes my heart melt. My favorite parts are Axel, I love him trying to make Roxas and Xion smile by bringing up ice cream, I love Roxas smiling when Axel mentions it and the way they both turn to Axel with Roxas now having tears in his eyes, smiling. I love that Axel tried to smile back, tried his best to remain the strong and confident person both Roxas and Xion knew him as but in the end is unable to and his facade cracks and he can’t help but break down, the tears come immediately, he lets himself cry after being strong for so long and he rushes to them and can’t help but hold them close. Axel really said “these are my kids and I love them and I finally found them again.” 🥹😭

Are you also doing the Remind DLC, Melody of Memories and the Dark Road mobile game cut scenes?

Great to see this up now! I hope you enjoyed the ending and the game. It's very good timing, as the series was just announced for Steam yesterday.

The original PS2 versions of the game lacked a "skip cutscene" option. So, naturally, I know the entire leadup to to the Riku/Ansem fight by heart.

It's too late now, but the Party menu is actually good for adjusting how often Donald and Goofy heal you and how often they attack enemies.

12:20 *Psst* Rabbit. You're not supposed to move. This is a still shot. We can cover you in the 4:3 version, but not Widescreen.

This series goes out of it's way to explain a costume change, but I'm still wondering what the in-universe reasoning is for the different types of Dark Portals.

Are you playing on an emulator. Pc or modded console

This is the part I didn't like xD Donald's Z-Flare felt very.... Forced and out of place. Like some Disney Exec shoveled that in without knowing what it meant for the continuity at large, and there's zero foreshadowing or anything. It just comes out of nowhere. Plus, people wow over it - I did once too - without realizing a few things: Yes, some big name Squeenix characters used it. However, they did it without like, COMMITING SUICIDE doing so. Then Donald screws over the crew by not being there when the bigger threat comes along - nice one duck, you ruined everything. Then there's the small detail that Sora ret-cons the casting anyway, so technically he never did it. 👏 I feel like Nomura was forced to have Donald use it but then he's thinking to himself "But they didn't say he had to survive it... Or that I can't retcon it afterwards." Anyway! The finale really makes all of KH3's shortcomings very much worth it, and having been a part of Union-X back in the day I screeeed out loud seeing that part come up and Ephemer and AAAA it just meant so much to me ;v; The finale-finale is going to be great, mark my words <3 <3 <3 Question: Will you take on the post-game? The post-game's ludicrously hard even on Proud Mode, so I can fully understand if you opt to just UA-cam that part :D

The first go around in the Keyblade Graveyard has everyone acting so stupid I facepalm so hard. I really don't know what they were thinking when they decided that was how things should go. You missed a very important star in the Final World. Might be a good thing to look up before recording the second part of the finale. Also it's worth mentioning that the translation choices for the conversation between Sora and Kairi in the light stream hurt the narrative a little. In the English version the people involved with doing the translation chose to go with borderline romantic dialogue. In the Japanese their dialogue is much more platonic. One thing in particular they changed Sora complimenting Kairi on how strong she's become to him feeling strong when he's with her. They do these little changes a lot in this game. Especially for stuff between Sora and Kairi. But for those two it's hardly anything new. The English translation for Kingdom Hearts games has always pushed a more romantic than platonic relationship between them. I hate the one I mentioned more than I hate most of the other changes because it really does Kairi dirty. Sure we never actually see her training but it's wonderful that her friend acknowledged that she's grown stronger and they decided "gee we gotta romanticize this up." Because gods forbid Kairi be worth something outside of being an ongoing possible endgame girlfriend and/or wife for Sora. Meanwhile they're fine changing the way Riku feels towards Sora the same way Herc feels towards Meg.

That's why i recommend you in the last video to rewatch Back Cover and Union Cross, I figured you wouldn't remember Ephemer and Chirithy. Btw, the reason why Lingering Will appears the second time if because of Naminé, she told you in the Final World that she traced a connection with him in order to help us.

Great episode. Looking forward to part two. Good luck.

2:12:40 - This is awesome!

2:02:21 - Hello Ephemer.

1:23:10 - LOL.

1:00:30 - Because it wasn't traumatic enough the first time, let's make it happen again.

30:40 - Eraqus blatantly cheating. Assuming that their game is meant to actually be based off of real chess he shouldn't be able to make another move here. I know next to nothing about chess, but my father plays it enough for me to have learned Checkmate means the game ends.

24:55 - Super Ingredients Blaster!

Oh it seems he didn't watch union cross. bro is missing out on so much important stuff 😭
