  • So, did we ever learn what caused Xehanort's baldness?
    I still can't believe its been so long for Dark Road to release but man those were some serious story beats. Also incorporating a ton of the disney elements which I'm very surprised.
    Dark Road is literally Nomura's sadist adventure

    its kinda cool, that at the end of kingdom hearts 3, when Xehanort says to Sora "you make me think of an old friend" at first we all thought it was Eraqus an it could still be interpret that he was talking about Eraqus but...he also could of ment it as in he reminded him of the "Player" who took care of him as he was telling him stories of hearts and emotions destiny etc. just like Sora. Which at that moment Xehanort *knew* that Sora was actually the REAL Child of Destiny, which is why he gave up his goal an gave the X blade to Sora an entrusted the future to him.

      @johndreyer294 2 роки тому +22

      It's interesting to think about the win and lose ratios. Maleficent in the past took on 3 keybladers (not masters but still powerful) and held her own in her Dragon form. Now how much did she contributed to their deaths vs the darkness attack from behind that was the killing blow for the three unknown even to them. Much later (or not as it seems the worlds have their own rules to time as for Xehanort aged about 65 years but the characters of that world didn't) she took on Aqua and while she lost she wasn't gone forever. Took on Sora and lost. Then took on Lauriam and won. Later her and Pete would take on a Heartless barrage at the World that Never Was.
      Her and Hades (and the Fairy Godmother and some magic users based on clues to what they could do) seems to be more powerful in certain ways that wasn't anticipated by fans and unknown if other Disney IP Villains and Heroes might show equally or more powerful powers/magic and skills (I can think of a few) that can effect Multiverse Worlds or powerful keybladers.
      That written it also makes you think just how Sora himself is Uber Powerful as despite starting young with no master education of combat with the keyblade (outside of play fighting on the beach) and constantly losing his powers he still able to take on her, Master Xehanort, and many other antagonists that faced him and he's still not considered a 'Keyblade Master' (though as Xehanort viewed it as a 'title' that didn't really mean much but being a title only gifted by a Master if meeting their subjective view and Xehanort might be right about that).

      The problem with Maleficent is that there are games that have tarnished her image. In some she's an amazing villain, like KH1, UX, BBS, maybe Coded and COM, and in others she's a parody of Team Rocket, like KH2, DDD or KH3. But if we stick to the original "Sleeping Beauty" villain, she's an excellent villain, and she needs to get that role back in KH.

    • @saxor96
      @saxor96 2 роки тому +13

      @@yedffgd The only way I can see this making sense is that she got "weaker" during a certain period of time by the circumstances of her defeat.
      In Dark Road, she was in her prime. In BBS, she was being attacked by Aqua (a Keyblade Master) and the prince powered up by fairies. That sword strike was the thing that actually hurt her badly, she was probably cursed and "nerfed" here.
      Then in KH1 she's still 'cursed' and it took Riku-Ansem to unlock part of her power back, but probably not fully and thus she was "defeated".
      However, in Union X she's in a body in her prime, so she could've gotten her power back that way and thus able to defeat Lauriam.

    Another thing that hit me is how strong aqua’s heart is for residing in the realm of darkness for (probably) 10 years. Especially after seeing how much the lower classmen were affected when they were yeeted into the realm of darkness. Even the MoM was like “ going into the realm of darkness without some form of protection is a no-no.” To xehanort. But in that regard, maybe aqua’s protection was her wayfinder, we did see how it helped her out in BBS secret episode
    I suppose mickey and riku are also strong for staying there for a while too. Although they did have black coats later on.

In the realm of darkness aqua is getting sad and stuff, but she only succumbed to darkness when she fell in the water, and for some reason that reminds me a lot more of the dark corridors presence of darkness then the entire realm. I'm just throwing ideas here, I'm not entirely sure about anything hahaha

      @@Final_RPG to be fair, as far as Riku summoning Sora's keblade. I really think all keyblade weilders can summon another's keyblade. They can use their hearts to call out to the weapon and the weapon will respond if able.
      Riku's explanation of his heart being "stronger" was really more of them both not understanding keyblades, even if it was perhaps true. Keyblades exist as foils to darkness. We know this as the heartless naturally fear and attack their welders. We also know that strength of the heart can be subjective and change on a dime.
      Sora had no real understanding of the keyblade. Riku had personal lessons from Maleficent, who we know has come across MANY keyblade welders. He was personally trained by Maleficent to make his heart strong enough to wield darkness. He actively used his heart in battle.
      So in Sora and Riku's first encounter, Riku plucked the keyblade with sheer willpower because Sora hadn't been using his heart when he weilded it. Keyblades are born of the heart. But Sora only ever saw it as a powerful weapon that "chose" him. He didn't think about using his heart to fight until Riku swiped it from him.
      At the end of the day, each keyblade does have a specific weilder. But it can most certainly be used by another.

    1:15 Wouldn't it be crazy if... Xehanort himself didn't actually land the deathblow backstabbing Eraqus after all these years, but instead that, Eraqus after realizing darkness had been noticed in his own heart in that moment decided to expel the darkness (the dark impact we see in his "final" scene after Terra wins) by dedicating his heart to becoming pure light itself passing on into Terra's heart. Then when Xehanort appears a few seconds later pitying Eraqus having lost faith assuming the darkness in Eraqus' heart did indeed overcome Eraqus into the fear/rage of striking down his pupils at risk of becoming vessels, confirming Xehanort's belief that every heart contains darkness and his destiny is to bring order to the world overcoming the rule of false light that in his view has only allowed true darkness to grow and threaten the world's future like the fatal darkness that false light failed to stop during their upperclassmen's mark of mastery exam?
    Therefore, is it possible Xehanort never deathblowed Eraqus, yet sadly had just lost respect for him clinging to his "absolutes" of "false light" believing that Eraqus' ideological path naturally ends in "self failure to stop fatal darkness" and thus Xehanort merely sees it in his own ideological view as sad but inevitable that Eraqus' ideological path isn't enough to save himself and others from fatal darkness?

      The game showed the you are not born being the child of destiny but you can BECOME it
      Similar to harry potter where both Neville and Harry fullfilled the requirements in the prophecy to defeat Voldemort but only after Voldemort acted, it was "set" who would take the role of chosen one
      Repeatedly they say how Xehanort and Baldr have the same ability to connect and feel other people's heart, but due to the fact that darkness interferred and managed to corrupt them they became inelligible to be the child of prophecy (asuming Baldr hails for destiny islands as well) similar to how in KH Riku became inelligible for the Keyblade and it passed on to Sora, it is all about strength of heart
      However Sora was able to stay true to his heart and not give in to darkness (barely!)
      Thus he was able to become the true child of prophecy, Xehanort however corrupted those ideals, instead connecting with others' hearts he manipulated them, instead taking others in his heart and becoming one, he stole bodies, and instead of saving the world he wanted to purge it (that's why he was so fixated on standing up and being the leader of his new world)
      Sora did do exactly what Old Player described in the correct way

Also he was raised virtually from birth by the player character from Union X, and learned about Ventus from reading their heart. Nort was fully aware that Vanitus was one of the Darkness, and was actively trying to force it out of Ventus so that Ven would be free of it. I missed a lot and will not be trying to rectify that.

    cause man, ya know what woulda been cool? having woody roast young xehanort for having no friends/being unloved and then instead of having young xehanort just villain brush it off, instead portray him as being really bothered and upset by the acquisitions. like to the point that its clear he's genuinely hurt because woody is picking at a [for him given hes the young xehanort time travel nonsense] pretty darn fresh wound. in that instance ya'd get to see the mask slip, and get some insight and build up to the idea that theres more going on under that hood then just 'evil mc bald man loves darkness' instead of just taking a hard turn into it at the final hour with the final boss.
