KH Shower Thoughts

[Megavoltage]

What if a Possessor Heartless took over the heart of a world? Would it be like Shadow Stalker from KH2 but on a much bigger scale? Would the world fly through Ocean Between and attack anything it saw?

Square had the chance to do the funniest thing with Aqua and Barbie in Toybox....

 

[Megavoltage]

When Aqua and Prince Philip assaulted Maleficent's castle, did that destroy all the goblins in Enchanted Dominion? Or are groups of goblins, not under the control of Maleficent, still causing trouble for the populace?

No, that didn't destroy Maleficent's goons (they're not explicitly referred to as goblins in any media). They're still there, and will be until Maleficent destroys her homeworld with them on it.

As many as plot convenience demands.

Ever notice that Mushu never appears in the second Land of Dragons visit? But he must be there because he's still part of Mulan's limit. Why does he never pipe up during the story?

Fun fact: The Theatrhythm art style actually originated with Kingdom Hearts Mobile (and it was also used for FF Airborne Brigade.)

I wonder what it would have been like if they had decided to use it for KHX.

Is the Olympus Coliseum IN Olympus? Does the front entrance lead to a 'town near Thebes' or is it a portal to fucking hell????

 

[WaltK]

Is the Olympus Coliseum IN Olympus?

It must be on Earth, because the whole point of Herc's story is that he's trying to regain his Godhood so he can return to Olympus.

My guess is that it's near the base of Mount Olympus: the view of Thebes from the entrance implies it's on a higher elevation. Meanwhile the exit from Thebes in BbS goes toward Mount Olympus, suggesting the Coliseum is in the same direction.

Does the front entrance lead to a 'town near Thebes' or is it a portal to fucking hell????

The portal to the Underworld looks very much to be a dark void that just so happens to appear outside the entrance.

Maybe the coliseum was elevated to the heavens between the events of BBS and KH1. Like a reward for Phil for training Herc or something.

What exactly is supposed to be happening in those alternate Monstro cutscenes you get if you don't play it until after Hollow Bastion? Is Riku supposed to be some kind of imposter in this version of the story?

 

[TheBigRed_]

If a heartless is a person who loses their heart and a nobody is the shell left over...wouldn't a Nobody Be a Heartless and a Heartless be a Nobody?

The Heartless does not have a body = No-Body
Nobody does not have a heart = Heart-Less

Riku's nobody.

How would the events after KH1 occur if Aqua and Mickey managed to escape the Realm of Darkness during 0.2? Would Aqua have been involved in the events of 358/2 Days? The only thing I know for sure is that she’d want to head back to Castle Oblivion ASAP.

 

[MATGSY]

New FF in KH brainstorm: The Knights of Pluto from FF9 as.......*drumroll*, the Knights of Pluto. Like Mickey hires Steiner to keep Pluto from running off again but it just leads to Steiner awkwardly chasing the dog over the entire game.

I never considered Xion from a trans perspective before, but now this video makes me understand that perspective.

it's funny seeing memes that are like "i expected KH to be a disney kids game but it's soooo dark" when the average Disney movie has darker themes and more emotional intensity than even the most intense KH games... I spose the only reason people feel otherwise is that most KH games tend to end on a bittersweet note, whereas most Disney movies really don't (although many do!)

Agreed.

You know what you are right. While Kingdom Heartsc an be dark, it is still tame compared to some of the darkest Disney content.

While true, I feel like this can be contributed to the fact that KH has this habit of omitting details that would earn any other game not under Disney a T or M rating, for instance, Ansem and his apprentices experimented on Heartless as well as Humans, if they went into greater detail on that, yeah, like I said (typed), T or M rating waiting to happen, and that's not including the other stuff, some of the characters going through physiological trauma, or the heavily censored scenes with Davy Jone's heart, and the part where Davy stabs Will, and that is only the tip of the ice berg.
