God, it's weird knowing I met my fiance at a con, and we both loved kingdom hearts this much, and I even proposed to her at Disney world when we went to go see the world tour. And all this started because I saw this weird game in the corner of a blockbuster.
Aww, that's pretty adorable! Here's to a lifetime of happiness to you both!
That’s amazing
Lucky
W life
So wholesome
It’s been an incredible 20 years. As a gigantic fan of the franchise, I’m proud to have followed the series for as long as I have and I couldn’t be any more grateful that this series exists.
👍me too mate. Me too
Same. I was kinda nervous about all the delays kh3 and that we’d have to wait a long time for more adaptions to the series. But they’re putting in the work!
Same. Been a fan since day one and it's been quite the journey!
I'm with you there, KH is a very unique franchise despite it's convoluted plot.
KH wouldn't be as successful without crossing over with characters from Disney, Final Fantasy, TWEWY, Pixar, and possibly more to come, even though the music is beyond beautiful. Not to mention it's some of the best action RPGs, at least in my opinion (mostly 2 and 3).
Daniel moloney awesome words, I couldn't say that better😎
The fact that Kingdom Heart is 20 years old, and gameplay still keep up. What a beautiful series, please make KH4 good square
They will
I still play all the games to this day. KH's real time combat has always been my favorite style of combat in any JRPG.
the fact that kh is 20 years old and im 23....what the hell XD
@@G.reviewz i know how that feels lol
@@EdgeDev same with gorillaz theyre 20 years old and im 23
WHAT!?!?
man im so fragile i hear kingdom hearts music played on violins and start crying
You're cultured
Aye
Same, sitting at my desk at work trying to fight back the tears
I’ve seen a lot of fucked up shit, I’ve witnessed people get killed in front of me, I’ve been abandoned by my entire family, I used to be in a gang, I’ve been shot 4 times and put in a wheelchair, I’ve had some of my closest friends die on me, I’ve been betrayed and nearly got killed by someone who was my close friend, my point in saying all this is to convey to you that I’m literally as tough and emotionless as they come, and even I was brought to tears from the music and the recap at the end and became hysterical when I saw that a 4th kingdom hearts was in the works 😂
"I don't need a weapon, my friends are my power!"
-Sora
Kingdom hearts and Halo crossover Master Chief "I need a weapon!" Sora "I don't need a weapon my friends are my power and I already have the keyblade!"
Friends are tools
@@noahdean9685 oh how I love the halo series.
THIS WAS AMAZING! THANK YOU FOR ALL THE GREAT MEMORIES!
Yooooo #HMK
I remember playing Kingdom Hearts and Birth by Sleep as a kid. But now that I'm older and regained my love for the series, I'm now marathoning all the way to Kingdom Hearts IV. I've beaten I, II, and still going through Terra's Story as well as Chain of Memories. Wish me luck, everyone.
Good luck, and have fun!
should have done it in time line order my guy!
I plan on doing the same thing soon!!!!
Nooope, this story wasn’t quite written to be played in timeline order. Release order is the way to go, with how they distribute the info/reveals to the player.
358/2 would spoil a few things in KH2, for example
@@theNoah99 so play 2 and then backtrack to 358 Nah… I mean couldn’t you technically play 358 after kh1 and have it make sense considering that the secret ending is more or less a concept for 358. The ending of 358 literally leads into the start of kh2
The original Kingdom Hearts was one of the very first video games I ever played. Needless to say, these games have been with me since the very beginning, and it’s such a special series to me. I can’t wait to see what lies in store for the future. Happy 20th anniversary, Kingdom Hearts!
P.S. AUGUST 26TH, FRICKIN’ *FINALLY*
sweet. better not get delayed again
i was five years old when it came out, and it was one of the first games i ever played as well 😢
(on a console, anyway- played some computer games before that as a bab lol)
Game means a lot to me. Thank you for 20 amazing years. 💕
Kingdom Hearts is 20 years old?! I remember breaking night playing KH1 trying to defeat secret boss Sephiroth. 2 decades ago... Seems like yesterday. 🗝️ 🖤
I know😭
Still haven't beat him on KH 1 FM cause I'm currently marathoning the whole series
@@aihara01 sephiroth can be easily cheesed in kh1 just equip all elixers mega elixers or mega ethers and spam strike raid and use items to restore mp
i just love how japan treats there games, it's a special event. i want to visit one some day. Dark road Finale release date !!!!
Yeah… gosh they’re SO cool!
Treated like the art they are
Fr
That ending sequence though ;-;
Just wanna say may your heart be your guiding key my friends!!!
✨
No matter how long or when you picked up the series, the story, music and memories along the way mean so much to all of us, even me. May your heart be your guiding key
It might be a little cliche, but Kingdom Hearts really is one of the few series I can say is truly magical.
The music, the characters, everything just keeps me coming back. And I love it.
Praise Nomoura for another kingdom hearts
MAY YOUR HEART BE YOUR GUIDING KEY!!!
This Game means so much to me. Kingdom Hearts has helped me with Problems I had in Reality, whenever I'm down KH never fails to make me smile and happy. Thank you Kingdom Hearts for the Amazing 20 years!
My goodness. Kingdom hearts was my comfort series for me in high school. I was going through a lot mentally back then and watching the walkthroughs on UA-cam kept me sane during those dark times. Even after I discovered other games and series, Kingdom Hearts will always have a special place in my heart. Pun intended 😝
For my kindgom Hearts it will always be number 1. It has incredible characters, very beautiful worlds, very good fights, a perfect soundtrack, charismatic villains. This franchise has given me very good values and I am sure that they will continue to give me those very good messages. For me, Sora is a character that I always liked, he does not need to belong to a warrior race or possess divine power or have pride. We should all learn from Sora and his friends.
I couldnt agree with u more
The applause for kh4 was so loud it sounded like a wave. God I love this franchise
I love the fact that this even exists. There have been plenty of franchises that have lasted 20 or more years, but many of them get anniversary events like "Here's a game with a special box art" or "Here's a collection edition of all the games". Kingdom Hearts is among the few I know of that goes THIS far to celebrate the longevity of the series and the support of the fandom.
It's times like this that make me the most proud to be a KH fan, because the community is so passionate and Square is so open about celebrating the games far more than what's needed. The absolutely overabundance of love and adoration that's shown in these events from both the events and the fans attending them (and those of us that can only see them via videos like these) really highlights the best of the KH community.
What a journey so far! May Your Heart Be Your Guiding Key! ❤️
Was 6 going on 7 when Kingdom Hearts released back in ’02, n I’ve been a fan since then. Kingdom Hearts 2 released on the exact day, of my 10th birthday in ‘05. To this day, that game holds a special place in my heart. I’m nw 26 going 27, n I’m still a fan of the series. I love the characters, the worlds that have been included in each title, etc. I’d like to think, myself, n the rest of the Kingdom Hearts community, r eagerly looking forward to what the future holds. 💯
👑❤️
I was 4 when it first released🤣
When KH1 came out in Japan, it was only nearly two months _before_ I was even born lol
Bro this game is older than me
I need that concert cd so bad
Just beautiful, the tears and feels are real. Can’t wait for the next installments! You clever little sneaks.
It's a dream come true seeing Kingdom Hearts get a beautiful celebration like this. The franchise has definitely come a long way and it's wonderful seeing how it has impacted many people besides just me. I'm really proud to have the spirit of this franchise in my everyday life, and I wish Nomura, everyone in the Kingdom Hearts team, and all of KH community nothing but the best!
I can’t wait for Kingdom Hearts 4 ❤️❤️
You will be waiting a long time lol
Been playing Kingdom Hearts since the very beginning.. Looking forward for Kingdom Hearts 4.
LETS GOOOOO!!!!! I CANT FOR MORE KINGDOM HEARTS 4 NEWS!!!
This series has always been and will forever be a huge part of my life. Its helped me in good and bad times and ill always be forever grateful to it. I love it so much. KHforever. Thats all i gotta say.
Hard to believe that it has been so 20 years since 2002. I remember when my cousin Danny showed me the game for the first time.
I remember the first time I played KH2, all those years ago. Ahhh, such memories.... Here's to another twenty years of this series that has given me so much memories throughout the years, bitter or sweet!
They should make an animated series like the cutscenes that just would be so cool
WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THE MUSIC?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
20 years already.... This game means a lot to me and marked my heart with an indescribable feeling as much as Final Fantasy and Zelda 🥺💖💖💖
20 years of my life ❤️
May your heart be your guiding key!
this is truly beautiful my eyes will forever be blessed
After what happened at the recent concert some of us are very, very anxious and reassurance would be very appreciated
20 years.... 20. Years. The journey continues. May your heart be your guiding key
So many memories. Being 7 years old watching my sister play KH1, then playing all of them myself. 2 has a special place in my heart, 3 has my favorite keyblade transformations and BBS has so many spells its crazy. Excited to see 4.
IT CAME
7 Guardians of Light + 13 Seekers of Darkness = 20 amazing years of Kingdom Hearts! May your heart be your guiding key!
Happy 20th anniversary for the best game series ever ^_^
Almost teared up at the series montage at the end. This series made my childhood.
May your heart be your guiding key.
I’m grateful that this series came into my life when I was young and now that I’m 22 I can relive this moment again and years to come keep the kingdom hearts series coming for everyone to enjoy this master piece!!!!
This series always brings a smile to my face. I've been tearing up so much watching this video. The memories 😭😭😭
I remember playing the first Kingdom Hearts game on my PS2 back in 2002
Been an honor to be growing up with such series.
Can't believe it's been 20 years! Love this amazing series!
The ending of the video really made me emotional remembering every memory I have the 1st time playing a new title, from Kingdom Hearts 1 at 13 yrs old to now waiting for Kingdom Hearts 4 and the feelings of always wanting more, the dreams I would have wondering what happens next, the feeling of happiness and excitement playing the next game. Im so grateful for this series to have gotten me through some dark times and always finding the light somehow at the end, thank you for giving me my guiding keys 👑❤️
I'm glad I accidentally stood up long enough to catch this.
Kingdom Hearts, the only franchise I still buy from Disney.
Thank you so much for sharing this recap video. It is very rare to get an official video that is stemming from a live event from Japan to show the rest of the world. So we thank you and appreciate you so much for doing so.
May Your Heart Be Your Guiding Key
💖KINGDOM HEARTS FOREVER!!!!💖
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
They’ve given us too many things. The mainline games are all we need.
Nomura smiled at me, and said:
“You ain’t ever getting off this ride.”
Kingdom Hearts, very special place in my heart always ! Thank you
Thank you kingdom hearts from the bottom of my heart!!! I can't wait to continue being on this wild ride!!!
I remember being about 8-9 years old and my mom bringing me home the first one. It started an addiction over the years, every game in the series a multitude of times, to the point that I'm waiting for KH4 and Missing Link and also shoving the games into my 9 year olds face as well 😭
I love kingdom hearts best video game series ever made love it
its amazing that it's been already twenty years since kingdom hearts came out and they're still going strong, i'm looking forward to kingdom hearts 4! May your heart be your guiding key my friends! 🌟✨🌟✨🌟
Everyone writing speeches here in the comments has me in tears…
I love this game, I love the developers, and I love this community.
ive been playing kh since i could even remember way back on ps2 and to this day it still makes me cry, thanks so much for this amazing series
That key blade looks epic
I’m going to be honest here…..Kingdom Hearts 358/2 was the first Kingdom Hearts game I played from the series but it was that one game that got me hooked on it that I look into the whole series learning everything about it and I don’t regret it ☺️☺️☺️☺️
8:48 THIS MELODY AHHHHH 😭
So.. I cried again. The audience's reaction.. same 😭😭
seeing the ending of showcasing all the games throughout the years really is very nostalgic and a reminder that im getting OLD 😭😂💀 im so excited for KH4!
This game is truly incredible : characters, emotions, musics, story. We have come this far and there is still mystery to unsolve.
26th august lets go baby xenahort
Can’t believe it’s been 20 years already…
Happy Birthday Kingdom Hearts! Thank you for keeping the magic alive in our hearts.
Been here since 2006 as a 13 year old playing Kingdom Hearts II for the first time. I owe so much to Kingdom Hearts and I'll be here forever. Thank you.
Shimomura is a blessing bestow to us by the heavens.
We have been waiting for the release date of Dark Road since last year, I cannot describe how happy I am to finally know it is just a couple of weeks ahead of us! MAY YOUR HEART BE YOUR GUIDING KEY!!!
Kingdom hearts has been my comfort series since the day it released. The creative teams behind it have always done an amazing job really capturing the essence of "magic" in it. I remember the first day of playing it, even being brand new it had this feeling of nostalgia. Almost like meeting an old, dear friend. It was welcoming and warm. I'll continue to play the series till I can't anymore.
Happy 20 years people!! Its been a wild ride and i for one cant wait to see where it goes!! May your heart be your guiding key!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA DARK ROAD RELEASE DATE LETS GOOOOO!!! Happy 20 years!
5:02 Hearing Yozora's theme song like this is a totally different vibe 🤩. I'm also looking forward to Dark Road now.
I love kingdom hearts game so much thank you for this video I can wait for kingdom hearts 4
Yallllll soooooo lucky to have been there in person. I envy your existence
Man 20 years and we’ve come so far with this franchise from the games till now, the music shown in major events and even the main protagonist Sora joining Smash Ultimate as the final fighter so whatever comes next, I’m all here for it!
I love simple and clean it brings me to tears
It has been 20 years since I became a fan of Kingdom Hearts! And I was very to proud to be part of it to celebrate the 20th Anniversary to this franchise!
Thank you very much for this amazing series~
I literally grew up with this series. I love you, Kingdom Hearts!
Your field trip slip for returning here after another 20 years.
The instant I saw the notif i clicked immediately
Both Kingdom Hearts and Sonic the Hedgehog are the soul reasons why I have become a Gamer.
Thank you kingdom hearts for being my favourite game series EVER
Crazy to see this footage finally revealed! Didn't think we would ever see this considering it was a closed event.
I got in the franchise very recently when the games became available on PC. I've found a lot of value in the gameplay, the story, and the music for how they connect to create a unique and wonderful experience.
This franchise will always mean the world to me. Growing up alongside Sora and everyone in this game was special, many important moments in my life are reflected in this series. Thanks for changing my life, Kingdom Hearts
An Unforgettable journey indeed , thanks for the memories and precious moments kh, nomura and the devs and here for 20 more years !!!❤️🔑
I literally cried, especially with the violins and piano playing to the song theme. I even named my little brother's name as Roxas. That's just how I'm so fond of this game. Excited to know KH is now available offline on iOS but sadly unavailable in my region.. But still, thank you so much for 20 amazing years!
Para mi kindgom Hearts siempre será el número 1. Cuenta con personajes increíbles, mundos muy bonitos, peleas muy buenas, una banda sonora perfecta, villanos carismáticos. Esta franquicia me a dado muy buenos valores y que estoy seguro que lo seguirán dando esos mensajes muy buenos. Para mi sora es un personaje que siempre me gusto, no necesita pertenece una raza guerrera o poseer poder divino o tener orgullo. Todos deberíamos aprender de sora y de sus amigos.
Every time there’s a special event and/or game announcement it feels like the first time I discovered this game all over again! What a perfect tribute and precious anniversary 🥰 Thank you for the best 20 years of beautiful memories, dreams, and pure joy! I’ll love you forever and can’t wait to see what’s next 💖
May your heart be your guiding key 🫀🗝
The music is so good. Can't wait to see final fantasy characters in kingdom hearts 4
Thank you everyone behind Kingdom Hearts, you made a wonderful series that I hope is here to stay. May all your hearts be your guiding key.
Late cheers everyone who has followed the series since it’s first game debut! 🎉🎉🎉
