I really appreciate that you went the extra step and put time stamps. I know it would’ve been easier and less time consuming just to upload the video without timestamps but it’s appreciated that you went that extra step
Thank you so much! Considering the large amount of tracks in this medley, I thought it would be worth adding them, especially given the length of the final product. Glad to gain confirmation it was indeed worth it.

Even though I barely understand the Kingdom Hearts storyline/ Xehanorts plan. This is still awesome and good visual storytelling. Combining all the KH games into a single character storyline is amazing.
Xehanort is a pessimistic depressed old man who believes his ends justify his means. For him, nothing in the world is bright or beautiful (remember the quote about how to kids everything is bright and shining, so full of hope, xehnort has none of that) and he wants everyone to feel just as miserable and he completely disregards others as people (marluxia mentions this, saying "he does not care about us, to Xehanort we are nothing but empty husks").He wants to start a keyblade war because he thinks it would justify his world view and is also curious as what the result would be. He hoped the result would be in accordance to the book of prophesy (darkness preveils and light expires) as that would justify his view that the world is so terrible, hopeless and irredeemable that he could mentally justify reseting it. Xehanort also ruined himself, in bringing YX to the future, he permanently etched the pessimism of being an old man into his younger self, condemning himself to that fate; he was so pessimistic about the future that he willingly allowed this pessimism to seap even into his past (it also didn't help that YX is an arrogant edge lord who admires his older self). Xehanort gave up after seeing how much hope and optimism the younger generation of keyblade weilders had. Hopefully this cleared things up comment from 9 months ago.
This is a masterpiece. I keep coming back because the level of skill in the editing and music is unreal…as Master Xehanort once said; “very well done,” my friend!
This person thought of EVERYTHING! They even used the Re:coded cutscene at 14:38 since it happened at that time and we just didn’t see it until then. The video editing in this is amazing, and the transitions from song to song are seamless. Great work, showing this to my friend once he’s done with the series.
Thanks so much! I wanted to try and organise these songs that would fit the chronological order of games. So, I thought using Replicas for COM and Days would be the perfect point.
I just couldn't help myself; I had to listen to it again. XD This really is insanely good. Honestly, I consider it your best medley yet. I hope you're proud of this one. Much like all your other outstanding creations, you absolutely deserve to be. Not only proud of this video, but also of just how much you've improved over the years. And considering how well your older works still hold up that says something even greater. Good job on this one. Really. I can tell just much was put into it, and it paid off 110%. As always, I'm happy to be along for the ride, and I can't wait to see where your passions lead you next!
Thank you so, so much Tropic Hawk. I can't tell you how proud I am of this medley. These past two years, I've wanted to experiment with new videos and I can safely say that I have no regrets. Your comments throughout the years have always been motivating for me. I can't thank you enough, seriously. I'm excited to see where I go from here, cause I got some ideas, but I gotta pick which one to work on first. XD
@@Titan_Trainer I'm really happy to hear that. All of it.

In the meantime, I hope you continue to feel that sense of satisfaction and accomplishment. You've truly earned it.
The medley, the masterful transitions AND making it all match with the music while giving a cohesive picture. Left me speechless, thank you for this 🤩 I had this recommended to me about the time it came out, but I hadn't played Re:mind yet, so I put off watching it because I didn't want to get any music spoilers, and I am super glad I remembered to come back to it!
Ok, for starters, this is pretty incredible - the editing and structure of the video is godlike. The one thing I can't help but complain about is that up until Terra gets possessed, the entire Birth by Sleep section feels kind of dull in terms of music; Destati's a great song, but when you hear it over and over again with minimal variation it starts to get old. That being said, there's one thing I really have to be impressed by - this section at 27:17. I never considered this for a reason as to why Kairi froze up in that scene, but I think that's now always going to be my headcanon. (Admittedly, I doubt that the writers planned that, and even if they did they could have just...not.) Major props.
Like No zher not literly xehanort he just Sees them as versions of himself unlike Sora who Sees Roxas as his own person. Or thecplayer character not beeing xehanort
Kind of surprised Darkness of the Unknown isn't in here anywhere. I mean it has just as much to do with Xeahnort as the rest of these songs. Regardless, this was a good video and I can tell you put a lot of love care and time into it. Great work!
The closest to a destati related track with xemnas would be his phase 2 theme from kh2 using the guardando nel buio portion but it’s so faint you can closely hear it in the original kh2 version and not the 2.5 remix
@@verylargemandarinslice8965 Not to mention the person already made a Darkness of the Unknown video. Likewise, most of KH2 is filler that doesn’t have much to say on Xehanort, so it’s understandable that it isn’t represented as much as opposed to the games that (chronologically) build up to that game.
So I guess this is just a big episode recap to bridge us to Kingdom hearts 4 am I right? Lol 😂 Anyway beautifully well done the beginning and end of the tragic life of Xehanort My only grip is you left out dark road the most important prequel to xehanort personal life of his loss of friends BUT with that said I can understand why you left it out since it doesn’t have 3d visuals Ps I love how you made it look like kairi was fighting xehanort on the inside of his heart kinda like I love that you kinda gave her the main attraction on that honestly this is how KH3 should have been very will done this is the best tribute to the nort man
Well hello there my other self looking nice as ever i see To all who are wondering WTF am i saying well this gentleman here is me when i was a complete person and had my original email number and was still living in USA But now iam a heart going by the name Julian living my days on a island beach in the deep south as a caution of WW3 wondering about my future plans of survival Anyway as a i repeat myself the tragic life of xehanort RIP dood so far a build up goes as MoM is as well as luxu is now my favorite semi villain character Xehanort you will never be forgotten since your first debut as nothing but a heart as ANSEM Of KH1 Your self as a heartless doll with now a retcon time loop on your self aka Attack on titan Eren Yeager Fixed Timeline Style Ps i just want to tell peeps this split trope in KH is not the first time this has happened back in 1998 there was character name lacon of Xenogears whos soul went on as grafh techinclly his heartless and his reborn body was the main character Fei fong wong technically the nobody as well as Xenoblade franchise also did this with klaus and zanza as well With Xenoblade 2 pyra and methria and Xenoblade 3 DLC Alvis split Alpha his negative side and A his main programing side Yoko taro and Numora most be friends because in nier replicant you had Shads and replilcants that were equal in story lore to how heartless abd nobodys are as beings So ya that's all i wanted to peace out XEHANORT RIP
absolutely incredible this insane video, ty for all your work and there is no words to describe this masterpiece. I hope you have more visits and more views (and subscribers) and more successes.
I Mean, the master Of masters did tell him for his heart to be his guiding key, and he did just that, & that is what led him to do all of this. so even though He was in the wrong, he was in the right
If you see the whole kh story a bit other than you can see he just wanted to know what happen after the keyblade war He was really AMBITIONOUS If Xehanort don't did this I don't would know what happened to the destiny island trio or the bbs trio or the whole story
Well he wanted to see the results of the keyblade war in hopes it would justify his world view. He read the book of prophesy that stated that darkness would prevail and light would expire, if this truely occurred, it would justify his view that the world was irredeemable and terrible.
This is underrated. Amazing video, and great timing between transitions. My one gripe (and i'm not even sure if this is correct) is that i'm pretty sure the part where Ventus is in a coma on the tree comes before the part where Xheanort splits Vens heart into two creating Vanitas. Reason being that Ventus is from the past and ends up in a coma on the trip to the distant future. It makes more sense to me because Xheanort seems suprised that Ventus can use a Keyblade,. If it was in the order you showed in the vid, I don't think that would have been the case. Still though, awesome job, and would love to see more of these in the future.
It's not that Ventus could use a Keyblade that surprised him, but that he could use it after having his heart ripped in two. We already know it was because of the damage of Vanitas's creation that Xehanort brought Ventus to the islands to die, and it was there that the boy first made contact with Sora's newborn heart.
This video is amazing, I just would've like to have certain lines of dialogue. There's a lot of custcenes of characters talking and it feels weird no hearing their voices xd But great video, the best KH Xehanort Saga Resume.
I’ve always wondered xemnas and ansem seeker of darkness seem more lost and desperate than evil, like master xehanort. I wonder if they are just as much Tera’s heartless and nobody.
this is absolutly insane, your editing is on point, though i personally would have shuffled around some of the days stuff, maybe a bit more Axel, and definately a bnit more of the Sora vs Roxas fight, maybe add a little of the data sora vs data roxas scene too
7:30 Imagine showing this to a Non-fan of KH, 7 Minutes of anime drama and epic fights and them PUM, Fucking Mickey Mouse shows itself
Came for the music, stayed for the cutscene compilation.
I can't believe how Yoko Shimomura just puts the Destati leitmotiff in... Nearly everything.
How much Destati do you want in this soundtrack?
YES
This is unironically the best summary of the Dark Seeker Saga I have ever seen.
This is a half an hour video arranging the same song together multiple times and it doesn't get boring for even a minute. Incredible.

In a way, this IS the full story. It seems really easy to digest KH by just looking at things in Xehanort’s perspective.
This is a masterpiece. I keep coming back because the level of skill in the editing and music is unreal…as Master Xehanort once said; “very well done,” my friend!
God the leitmotifs of kingdom Hearts sometimes hard carry the entire series.
This is what dedication looks like. Love this video, love this franchise, and I love this community.

I've been waiting for something like this. Can't wait to listen to it completely.

Thank you! This was definitely one of my favourite videos to work on so far, so I'm really thankful for your kind words. :)
21:12 - 21:26 I just wanna take the sequence and frame it on a wall.
I listen to this almost every day, masterpiece 100/10

Destati has got to be one of my favorite pieces! Well done!
This video is so good.
Love the editing, especially torwards the end. Damn, that ending gave me chills.
Wow, omg, the editing at 26:44 is so great, love that a lot, but honestly this entire video was so well done, worth watching every second

Nomura is the only writer
Not really true. He’s the head guy, but there are others helping out as well.
Considering how every other character in the series is him, can you really call him *one* man?
We are all xehanort on this fine day.
We all thought we were xehanort, but instead we raised the man. We, the player, have our insert connected to this man. That's crazy bro
Xehanort is the king of identity theft
Thats a litke much and again people reading into it zoo much
Like No zher not literly xehanort he just Sees them as versions of himself unlike Sora who Sees Roxas as his own person.
Or thecplayer character not beeing xehanort
This video is fantastic, well done! This is, hands-down, is the best Xehanort Saga story telling video, with Destati!
Thanks so much!
I can't believe it. This video is amazing. Great work 😊
Ansem's KH3 Data theme is my all-time favorite rendition of Destati
Only barely started this, but I love especially with tthe BBS stuff how you blend the scenes together, it's very well done
Kind of surprised Darkness of the Unknown isn't in here anywhere. I mean it has just as much to do with Xeahnort as the rest of these songs. Regardless, this was a good video and I can tell you put a lot of love care and time into it. Great work!
This video is about every track that uses destati as a leitmotif

Well hello there my other self looking nice as ever i see
To all who are wondering WTF am i saying well this gentleman here is me when i was a complete person and had my original email number and was still living in USA
But now iam a heart going by the name Julian living my days on a island beach in the deep south as a caution of WW3 wondering about my future plans of survival
Anyway as a i repeat myself the tragic life of xehanort RIP dood so far a build up goes as MoM is as well as luxu is now my favorite semi villain character Xehanort you will never be forgotten since your first debut as nothing but a heart as ANSEM Of KH1 Your self as a heartless doll with now a retcon time loop on your self aka Attack on titan Eren Yeager Fixed Timeline Style
Ps i just want to tell peeps this split trope in KH is not the first time this has happened
back in 1998 there was character name lacon of Xenogears whos soul went on as grafh techinclly his heartless and his reborn body was the main character Fei fong wong technically the nobody
as well as Xenoblade franchise also did this with klaus and zanza as well
With Xenoblade 2 pyra and methria and Xenoblade 3 DLC Alvis split Alpha his negative side and A his main programing side
Yoko taro and Numora most be friends because in nier replicant you had Shads and replilcants that were equal in story lore to how heartless abd nobodys are as beings
So ya that's all i wanted to peace out XEHANORT RIP
absolutely incredible this insane video, ty for all your work and there is no words to describe this masterpiece. I hope you have more visits and more views (and subscribers) and more successes.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate the kind words!
This is probably my favorite song from kh
I Mean,
the master Of masters did tell him for his heart to be his guiding key, and he did just that, & that is what led him to do all of this.
so even though He was in the wrong, he was in the right
It was… *destiny!*
"there is one sky one destiny"
I can not hum this theme and leitmotifs in series its just been ingrained in my mind for the rest of my years as a kh fan
Dude, this was amazing!! The editing is so good!! I'm kinda speechless honestly! Great job and keep up the good work!!
This is amazing 👏
Greatest thing creates this is literally the whole story
Bravo. Fucking.. GOD DAMN THAT WAS EPIC.
Very well done- Master Xehanort
If you see the whole kh story a bit other than you can see he just wanted to know what happen after the keyblade war

Unfortunately, this song was not among the tracks in the OST. So, as of now, it has no official title.
12:05 Someone knows the name of this version?
“Destati 12 keys” smth like that
What played at 21:13? I’ve never heard that version before.
That track is "L'Eminenza Oscura II" from Dream Drop Distance. It plays during the second battle against Ansem in that game.
24:07 What's this of destati called it sounds epic
It's from "Fantasia alla marcia for piano, chorus and orchestra," the music used for KH2's credits.
