YOKO SHIMOMURA IS GENIUS! Did anyone notice that Ventus theme is actually a SMART GENIUS MIX of Roxas' and Sora's theme??? (with of course a touch of melodies that belongs to Ven) 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
+KnucklestheEcidna Ventus is become part of Sora's heart. When Sora stabs his chest to realease Kairi's heart, he became shadow heartless hence the birth of his nobody: Roxas. Since Ventus' heart becomes part of Sora's heart, the appearance of Sora's nobody looks like Ventus. From the story perspective that's how these 3 characters connected. However from the musical perspective I am completely AMAZED how Yoko Shimomura arrange those notes into beautiful melodies that secretly "tell the connection of Ventus-Sora-Roxas" in a single music track. 😍😍😍
But Ven is sleeping with his heart in Sora. So I think he won't age at all from the last time we saw him? Unless you mean some time later after Ven woke up
I was talking to my friend on FB and we were promising each other that we would never forget each other no matter how far apart we were, and I was listening to this song. Unintentionally. The moment was perfect, I felt like crying!
Well... when Sora was on his nightmares on 3D and this theme played I felt it very depressing too. I think KH 3D is where Sora's story starts to get stained with sadness for Sora a bit, him not being a legitimate Keyblade wielder and questioning if his existance it's his own.
I don't know why, but Ventus' theme always gives me a feeling of someone trying to hang onto hope. That despite all that has happened, one light, traveling through a seemingly endless darkness, is still hanging onto hope. That after all of this is over, everything will turn out alright in the end.
It's funny; I don't really consider Roxas and Ventus two different people (more along the lines of they are the same entity with different memories each time). Just imagine if they had the same memories, how much he would have gone through.
Actually roxas only looks like ventus because when roxas was created he looked like sora but when sora became back to normal roxas took the form of ventus because ventus is in soras heart
this song makes me feel sad, but at the same time happy for all the good things in life, and that we shouldn't take advantage of things. it also makes me think of the family members i've lost and how much i miss them
Ventus is a sadder character than Roxas really. Ventus is a pure kid amongst his older friends and gets dragged into a mess because he wanted to save his friend from what Vanitas told him to scare him. Actually. Roxas and Ventus are both crat sad characters I really can't rare them above each other. It's pure art. If you notice the themes are also very similar.
Sora is the last hope for ventus. It all started at the radiant isles. Sora opened his heart to ventus because ventus was struggleing. Ventus then asked if he could reside in soras heart untill he was able to defend himself. Sora then grew up forgeting the previous events with ventus. Untill he was able to summon a keyblade. sora on a quest for his freinds learned more about his own past. But the thing he dident know is his own freinds heart was inside himself. He released kairis heart but in the process gave two being a existence roxas soras nobody and namine kairis nobody. However kairi and sora awakened. So memory from roxas's former life(sora) were like a empty shell. That empty shell is xion a replica made to copy a keyblade to steal roxas's power. Roxas had to defeat xion ( had a good bond) and xion was deleted from all who knew her.
esta canción me hace reflexionar mucho sobre el sentido de las cosas,sobre cuando estoy solo,me hace sentir bien,me anima a seguir haciendo lo que me gusta,porque en el fondo se,que si lo hice es por algo.Gracias a kingdom hearts,square enix y Disney 😊
I never thought I'd ever dig these kind of games.. ever since I started to play the first one way back, i got hooked up with it... Not to mention its AWESOME soundtracks.
This piece is incredibly beautiful. And it fits Ventus really well, he who sacrificed everything and asked his best friends to do away with him in order to protect all people he loved. It's a music charged with peace and a mixture of happiness and sorrow. I love it. "I'm asking you, as a friend. Just... put an end to me." - Ven, one of the most epic characters in Kingdom Hearts universe.
Blade Dance Roxas and Xemnas stand next to each other in KHII, and Xemnas is the same persona as Terra, and Ven's head is higher on Terra's shoulder than Roxas' is on Xemnas.
Are you talking about in this picture? Because this picture was just Photoshoped so that it would look like Ven, Terra, and Aqua were all standing next to each other. That's not Ven's actual height.
I could write three pages about what this song means to me and which feelings it sets free. I love it so much, I can not even describe it. There are so many emotions. Ahh, really, i love this song to death.
To me, this sounds like a mix between Roxas' theme, Twilight Town, and Ventus' feeling throughout the game. I can't tell you how much this song makes me want to go watch a sunset and curl up to cry.
"put an end to me" "no one would miss me" "you'll be better off now"... When you really think about all the sad moments in kh, it makes you think that they said those words for a greater cause and not just to be dramatic but i cant lie, it does bring tears to my eyes:(
I noticed that right away. You can also hear a touch of Sora's theme here. It's to represent Ven's connection with Sora and Roxas, which was really creative and cool on Shimomura's part.
indeed... sora's story wasn't all about disney and sprinkles with unicorns.... no his lost friends.... in a hopeless search... he will power up till the very end to help his friends! he will never give up just for his friends...
No.. I do as well ;w; It's beautiful...and I'm planning on playing it in my school's talent show next year... -_-" Because-no offense to the younger kids- but everytime a violin came onstage , the crowd waz like, "Oh GAWD...not ANOTHER one... bro, hand me some earplugz." And I went all bezerk on them...... =w= yup....
this kind of music explains so much about the feeling of ventus, this song makes me very emotional( i secretly listen to this if i cant go sleep... or just plsy KHDDD or KHBBS)
I think i like this storyline the most. It's these 3 guys story lines that makes the main plot more bitter sweet. I mean these 3 went through it all. SO CMON SORA.
heart of light and darkness, broken once to extract the darkness, and healed with the help of a little boy's heart, and fought his other self knowing it will break his heart again to protect his friends. It rest to that boy's heart, and got extracted again, creating a body that looks like him. Not knowing that his heart was there, he became a nobody. Experiencing sadness and sacrifice, his heart once again joined that boy's. Ven's heart has been on countless adventures this whole time.
Agreed. But at the same time, people argue that Sora is the purest- wrong again. It's Ven. He literally lost all the darkness in his heart ((Vanitas)) and is possible the first entirely pure character, which is one of the reasons he succumbed kinda easy to the dark power of the X blade.
i learned from all that have played this game i have never played this game in my entire life i watched ventus's story he makes me feel emotional all the time i mean when he died i just cryed we would never see him again poor ventus
Gosh, I've never player this game before. Although I love the Kingdom Hearts series, I hadn't played a Kingdom Hearts game in a long time. But this song makes me cry for some reason. Yoko Shimomura is, for sure, the most awesome arranger I'll ever hear about.
I just finished KH 3D on Saturday and ohgoshohgosh Ventus' and Roxas' themes made me wanna cry so much! T^T I JUST WANT MY TWO FAVORITE BLONDES TO BE HAPPY!!!
When you look into it, this song is just like Ventus; his curiosity of his existence, and his curiosity for what's out there. A trait of Roxas's and Sora's, respectively.
theyre both sad how about we agree on that, but yeah in the long run BBS is sadder because Aquas been in the dark realm for 10 years fighting the heartless possibly nonstop, and ventus is all alone. Thats why the scene with Ventus in KH 3D gave me huge feels :(
"I'm asking you, as a friend... Just... put an end to me." Ven
Nope nope nope nope nope...*goes to a corner and cries*
This game is too much! I can't take it!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
where does he say this?!
Natalie Lua a cutscene when the trio meet each other at the end of keyblade graveyard
I cried when reading this.. :c
Whats really sad is that at times, you can hear Roxas' theme, so its like Ventus came to life again as Roxas, only to suffer more.
D=
And also Sora´s theme, and that´s the best part of this theme to me.
i hear a bit of dearly beloved as well, just slightly
The musical definition of BE SAD
It's both sad and ironic how both Ven and Roxas not only share the similar looks, they also share similar tragities.
WHY MUST THE GOOD DIE YOUNG?!?!
Blade Dance Because they are too precious for this world...
+Nikie TurtleGoo It'd be cool to see them meet in KH 3.
+Final Limits
I can just picture it now. XD
Roxas: Whoah, you look just like me!
Ventus: I know, right?
"You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain"... I think that this quote descrive all those situtions...
Ventus's Theme and Roxas's Theme... the saddest musical theme of the entire history of videogame... i love it!
I have to disagree. It either Aqua's or Xion's themes that are the saddest.
If you listen closely, you can hear parts of sora's theme and roxas's theme. This shows how all of them are interconnected.
YOKO SHIMOMURA IS GENIUS!
Did anyone notice that Ventus theme is actually a SMART GENIUS MIX of Roxas' and Sora's theme??? (with of course a touch of melodies that belongs to Ven) 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
+colpugno7 well that is true. Roxas IS Ventus after all. you make a good other (KH2FM). he was refering to Ventus not sora.
+KnucklestheEcidna Ventus is become part of Sora's heart. When Sora stabs his chest to realease Kairi's heart, he became shadow heartless hence the birth of his nobody: Roxas. Since Ventus' heart becomes part of Sora's heart, the appearance of Sora's nobody looks like Ventus. From the story perspective that's how these 3 characters connected. However from the musical perspective I am completely AMAZED how Yoko Shimomura arrange those notes into beautiful melodies that secretly "tell the connection of Ventus-Sora-Roxas" in a single music track. 😍😍😍
it's a shame we can't find those compostion albums of Yoko on ITunes.
I actually hear quite a bit of Roxas's Theme here.
because it is based on Roxas' Theme since they are connected in a way
Kind of like how half of Ventus(' getup) looks like Roxas, half of the theme is Ventus's original theme, and half is Roxas' theme.
I thought this was a mix of multiple characters themes
It's the same but roxas's theme is "highter" than ventus
(sorry, my englich vocabulary for music is "weak")
It's basicly the same melody
When Ventus finally wake up in KH3 that's gonna be epic!
I'm waiting. I hope he grows longer hair and possibly facial hair. I just can't wait Ventus was my favorite character from BBS.
But Ven is sleeping with his heart in Sora. So I think he won't age at all from the last time we saw him? Unless you mean some time later after Ven woke up
Still waiting...
It was epic
No.
I was talking to my friend on FB and we were promising each other that we would never forget each other no matter how far apart we were, and I was listening to this song. Unintentionally. The moment was perfect, I felt like crying!
When you hear this in Dream Drop Distance...
This is by far my favorite game series it's sad but it gives you hope in the end
I swear I could listen to this forever, so beautiful and sad, it's pretty much a masterpiece
ventus theme is more sadder than roxas theme... :(
Any KH game where Sora doesn't star is depressing af. =(
not true bbs was a nice surprise and i think that many fans appreciated the darker themes portrayed within it
Sora Riku thats because birth by sleep is a sad game
Well... when Sora was on his nightmares on 3D and this theme played I felt it very depressing too. I think KH 3D is where Sora's story starts to get stained with sadness for Sora a bit, him not being a legitimate Keyblade wielder and questioning if his existance it's his own.
I don't know why, but Ventus' theme always gives me a feeling of someone trying to hang onto hope. That despite all that has happened, one light, traveling through a seemingly endless darkness, is still hanging onto hope. That after all of this is over, everything will turn out alright in the end.
Oh god.... my heart.... It just hurts so much....
Hands down one of my favorite songs in the entire series. I love Ven; he's so sweet and adorable.
This theme fits well with ven and his story of losing his friends then (in a way) losing his heart
this is one of the most beautiful tracks in the series hands down! well done!
Some parts of this song sound like Traverse Town music. Does anyone else think that?
I dedicate this song to my father in law,which treated me as good as he would treat his very own son :') RIP
The feels, oh the feels.
Riku: Sora don't! You gotta wake up! Sora!
"I am who I am, because of them"
It's funny; I don't really consider Roxas and Ventus two different people (more along the lines of they are the same entity with different memories each time). Just imagine if they had the same memories, how much he would have gone through.
I feel like Roxas is gonna Merge With Ventus.
Then Ventus will just have stronger relationships with other people such as Lea
Actually roxas only looks like ventus because when roxas was created he looked like sora but when sora became back to normal roxas took the form of ventus because ventus is in soras heart
i agree 358/2 days was the saddest
"....There, you're gonna see me choke the life out of Tera and Aqua. Then we'll see how long you play the pacifist."
"Some where out there,there's this tree with star shaped fruit, an unbreakable connection!"
I'm such a mess everytime i listen to this :'(
this song makes me feel sad, but at the same time happy for all the good things in life, and that we shouldn't take advantage of things. it also makes me think of the family members i've lost and how much i miss them
I think Ven's theme sounds much sadder than Roxas' theme. Poor guy
Sora, Roxas, Axel, Xion, Naminé, Terra, Aqua, Ven... So much pain for all of them! 😢
Ventus is a sadder character than Roxas really. Ventus is a pure kid amongst his older friends and gets dragged into a mess because he wanted to save his friend from what Vanitas told him to scare him. Actually. Roxas and Ventus are both crat sad characters I really can't rare them above each other. It's pure art. If you notice the themes are also very similar.
Roxas is more deep and depressing than actually sad.
By hearing this theme I remember Ventus saying:
"I'm asking you as a friend...
Just... put an end on me..."
I feel so sad :,(
WHY DOESN'T EVER ONE HAVE SAD THERE BUT SORA!?!?btw still love this song
b/c hes everyone's light of hope. the one that will open the door...
Sora is the last hope for ventus.
It all started at the radiant isles. Sora opened his heart to ventus because ventus was struggleing. Ventus then asked if he could reside in soras heart untill he was able to defend himself. Sora then grew up forgeting the previous events with ventus. Untill he was able to summon a keyblade. sora on a quest for his freinds learned more about his own past. But the thing he dident know is his own freinds heart was inside himself. He released kairis heart but in the process gave two being a existence roxas soras nobody and namine kairis nobody. However kairi and sora awakened. So memory from roxas's former life(sora) were like a empty shell. That empty shell is xion a replica made to copy a keyblade to steal roxas's power. Roxas had to defeat xion ( had a good bond) and xion was deleted from all who knew her.
Terra's theme is more determined than anything else.
How do these people come up with such AMAZING music! And yet some artists cant even come up with one good song. Love kingdom hearts!
Does anyone think Terra will come back? :'(
"In time, the worlds would be saved by these two heroes who stood beneath the same blaze of stars."
esta canción me hace reflexionar mucho sobre el sentido de las cosas,sobre cuando estoy solo,me hace sentir bien,me anima a seguir haciendo lo que me gusta,porque en el fondo se,que si lo hice es por algo.Gracias a kingdom hearts,square enix y Disney 😊
Tengo la misma sensación ;)
I never thought I'd ever dig these kind of games.. ever since I started to play the first one way back, i got hooked up with it... Not to mention its AWESOME soundtracks.
i'm sorry ven
This piece is incredibly beautiful. And it fits Ventus really well, he who sacrificed everything and asked his best friends to do away with him in order to protect all people he loved. It's a music charged with peace and a mixture of happiness and sorrow. I love it.
"I'm asking you, as a friend. Just... put an end to me."
- Ven, one of the most epic characters in Kingdom Hearts universe.
Blade Dance Ven and Roxas are identical, but Ven is slightly taller.
He is? I thought they were the same height. How'd you compare them?
Blade Dance Roxas and Xemnas stand next to each other in KHII, and Xemnas is the same persona as Terra, and Ven's head is higher on Terra's shoulder than Roxas' is on Xemnas.
Are you talking about in this picture? Because this picture was just Photoshoped so that it would look like Ven, Terra, and Aqua were all standing next to each other. That's not Ven's actual height.
Blade Dance Not photoshopped, during gameplay. Ven is not nearly that tall.
Scott McKeeth Oh.
I know what you mean. I remember when i first heard this. I instantly fell in love with it. Now it almost makes me cry every time
its amazing how you can hear Roxas's theme underneath this, its such a clever piece of music!
So emotional yet beautiful.It almost felt touching and sad if you hear this music.
I could write three pages about what this song means to me and which feelings it sets free. I love it so much, I can not even describe it. There are so many emotions. Ahh, really, i love this song to death.
To me, this sounds like a mix between Roxas' theme, Twilight Town, and Ventus' feeling throughout the game. I can't tell you how much this song makes me want to go watch a sunset and curl up to cry.
i get shivers every time dat violin comes in over top the oboe and piano.
this music makes me feel warm inside because of its strong meaning towards Ventus the creators of this music should be extremely proud of themselves
"put an end to me" "no one would miss me" "you'll be better off now"... When you really think about all the sad moments in kh, it makes you think that they said those words for a greater cause and not just to be dramatic but i cant lie, it does bring tears to my eyes:(
This is so beautiful. I felt like crying during this. :')
I noticed that right away. You can also hear a touch of Sora's theme here. It's to represent Ven's connection with Sora and Roxas, which was really creative and cool on Shimomura's part.
What a peaceful theme.
It hasn't deserved 15 dislikes.
My life flashes and future is far away when I listen to this song..
Can never get over the beauty of Ventus' and Roxas' themes..... T_T
I love how all the kh themes are so different yet very distinct and similar ;'D
everytime i hear this, i feel like im floating in a very blue sky filled with white and fluffy clouds.
"I've been here. So warm...I remember now. This...is your heart." Kingdom Hearts: simply FANTASTIC!
This is truly a sad song, but i still love it, can't stop listening to it
I love that it has parts of Sora's and Roxas' themes too c:
indeed... sora's story wasn't all about disney and sprinkles with unicorns.... no his lost friends.... in a hopeless search... he will power up till the very end to help his friends! he will never give up just for his friends...
Love ven's theme kind of sad but then again there's a sence of innocence and hope. really fits him and his story well.
i cry every time i finish the game i hope KH never stops
KH FAN FOR LIFE! o yeah and im going to have them play this at my funeral
A true hero in my book.Ventus earned his keyblade and friends in my book.
Am I the only one to play BBS multiple times and STILL get chills listening to this song? For that matter, most of the music from the KH series?
one of the saddest pieces yet.......it truly makes you remember that the heart does exist................................except for the 8 who disliked
@st8lion That was probably the best way to description of the games possible. And a very beautiful way to put it.
This, the Roxas theme, the orchestral Simple and Clean, Dive into the Heart...basically any of the slow paced songs
No.. I do as well ;w; It's beautiful...and I'm planning on playing it in my school's talent show next year... -_-" Because-no offense to the younger kids- but everytime a violin came onstage , the crowd waz like, "Oh GAWD...not ANOTHER one... bro, hand me some earplugz." And I went all bezerk on them...... =w= yup....
Ventus's theme has such beauty yet fill my eyes with tears of his sad story.
this kind of music explains so much about the feeling of ventus, this song makes me very emotional( i secretly listen to this if i cant go sleep... or just plsy KHDDD or KHBBS)
This song is beautiful and gives peace of mind. BBS definitely has the best soundtrack out of all the games.
These songs that I hear just makes me want to keep playing the games. Kingdom Hearts has the best songs. Hope other people agree.
I think i like this storyline the most. It's these 3 guys story lines that makes the main plot more bitter sweet. I mean these 3 went through it all. SO CMON SORA.
I can never get over the beauty of Dearly Beloved And Roxas And Sora's And Namine's themes
When i look back to my childhood i think of this game and it gets stuck in my head again make's me want to play it again witch i should.
KINGDOM HEARTS:
-AMAZING CHARACTERS
-AWESOME STORY
-EPIC INTROS
-BEAUTIFUL MUSIC
BLESS YOU KINGDOM HEARTS!
The best of the BBS ost.
Is so amazing, so emotive...
heart of light and darkness, broken once to extract the darkness, and healed with the help of a little boy's heart, and fought his other self knowing it will break his heart again to protect his friends. It rest to that boy's heart, and got extracted again, creating a body that looks like him. Not knowing that his heart was there, he became a nobody. Experiencing sadness and sacrifice, his heart once again joined that boy's. Ven's heart has been on countless adventures this whole time.
I tear up every time I listen to this:) Poor Ventus, his life is so difficult:/
i love how Ventus an Aqua have sad but soothing themes but Terra's is all actiony and adventurous XD
I feel your pain, I just got my PSP a week ago. But don't give up, thus game is worth it!
Ven and Roxas have the most amazing themes. All kingdom hearts music is amazing.
Agreed. But at the same time, people argue that Sora is the purest- wrong again. It's Ven. He literally lost all the darkness in his heart ((Vanitas)) and is possible the first entirely pure character, which is one of the reasons he succumbed kinda easy to the dark power of the X blade.
I love how this theme has both Roxas' and Sora's themes in it.
Ok, I keep telling myself I won't cry, then I voluntarily listen to this song. Each time, I look back at my man card and sob....
i learned from all that have played this game i have never played this game in my entire life i watched ventus's story he makes me feel emotional all the time i mean when he died i just cryed we would never see him again poor ventus
I absolutely love the violin part! I wish i had the music sheet score.
Gosh, I've never player this game before. Although I love the Kingdom Hearts series, I hadn't played a Kingdom Hearts game in a long time. But this song makes me cry for some reason.
Yoko Shimomura is, for sure, the most awesome arranger I'll ever hear about.
I love it. it makes me cry in a way.
WHY DOES KINGDOM HEARTS HAVE TO HAVE SUCH BEAUTIFUL MUSIC?! *almost crying*
*after listening to Roxas' Theme*
*crying my eyes out*
I almost cried during this
Any fan should feel some emotion during this theme
I just finished KH 3D on Saturday and ohgoshohgosh Ventus' and Roxas' themes made me wanna cry so much! T^T I JUST WANT MY TWO FAVORITE BLONDES TO BE HAPPY!!!
Every time i hear this song..... Time stops.... and i get lost in a Chain of Memories
Except when my granmother died, i have never ever like ever felt this sad in my entire life....
When you look into it, this song is just like Ventus; his curiosity of his existence, and his curiosity for what's out there. A trait of Roxas's and Sora's, respectively.
i luv this!!!!!! i want ven to wake up cause hes awsome!!!!!
i don't see how smiling at the end shows he woke up, it just means he's happy
theyre both sad how about we agree on that, but yeah in the long run BBS is sadder because Aquas been in the dark realm for 10 years fighting the heartless possibly nonstop, and ventus is all alone. Thats why the scene with Ventus in KH 3D gave me huge feels :(
my favorite character themes order
5-roxas
4-aqua
3-xion
2-namine
1-ventus
i love how its basically roxas' theme. Its great
