What are your favorite moments in the KH Series?

[ChibiHearts249]

I like this one! Hmmmm....fave moments, huh? Ok, times that made me smile should be the ones I count, so in no particular order:

-Sora thanking all of the Dream Eaters
-Riku's Dream Eaters showing him the way to Sora
-Sora, Donald, and Goofy's first meeting
-When Goofy comes back and joins the team in Hollow Bastion after getting bonked on the head by that blue rock
-When Kairi and Sora are reunited after she saves him from being a Heartless
-When Goofy and Donald drop in on the "Xehanort party"
-The sheer stupidity of Sora, Donald, and Goofy as they ALL touch the Auron statue and get zapped (duuuuuh)
-The beginning of the second visit to Halloweentown; with the reindeer chittering and Sora not being scared (and the other two ARE)
-Aqua meeting Sora and Riku as kids

And my personal fave: the party at the end of 3D (it made me smile LOTS :3)

 

[Oathkeeper1996]

Oh, gosh, this is a tough one... Hmm...
BBS:
-The fight against Master Xehanort. The battle scenes were simply amazing.
KH:
-The opening. That was the part that drew me in as a young girl and I still find amazing to this day. The simple things such as collecting items for the raft and racing to name the darn thing were just so powerful.
-The part in Hollow Bastian when Donald and Goofy join Sora again after ditching him to follow the Keyblade and it's all "My friends are my power". To me that just lifted my heart. Sora could've been just about ready to battle to the end and he still had faith in love and loyalty.
-When Sora stabs himself. It stabbed me.
-When Kairi hugs Sora and he's all human again. Mended my heart.
-Sora's promise at the end. No words.
COM:
-The end. (I hated the Gameboy version. It was almost impossible to see on the Advance and ugh, my eyes. A lot of scenes are meaningful now but I will never forgive them for not putting it on the Playstation to begin with. Hmph.)
358/2 Days:
-The first time they all ate Sea-Salt Ice Cream together. Roxas deserved having friends. Nobodies have hearts, too, and it's sick that Xemnas was such a manipulative whiny baby-faced stupid monster.
-When Xion dies. I hate and love that moment.
Re-Coded:
-No specifically awesome scenes/moments.
KHII:
-Playing as Roxas in the beginning. His confusion was so realistic.
-When Axel kidnaps Kairi. Axel rocks.
-The huge heartless battle in Radiant Garden.
-Goofy's "death". Cried so much I couldn't see then threw a fit when he was really alive.
-When Riku and Sora are reunited. Though they fought, they were there for each other and fixed any hostility there could have been. It was so beautiful.
DreamDropDistance:
-Playing as Riku.
-All the fighting scenes. Some were so rad.
KHIII:
-None yet because it's stillllllll not out. :'(

 

[LightUpTheSky452]

Oh, god. I just remembered what my favorite KHII moment was. I can't believe I forgot until now. Back when KHII first came out, I remember there was a day that we'd had a two-hour delay from school. While most people would have been sleeping, I decided to play even more of KHII, because why not, right? So I got to the part where we see Kairi the first time, and I swear to god I was crying my eyes out.

You see? Back in the day (when I was like, eleven), I thought Sora and Kairi were the most romantic pairing since sliced bread, so when I'd seen Kairi had forgotten Sora (something I didn't blame her for, because I'd played the GBA version of CoM), oh did that hurt me. At that point, I wanted Kairi to remember everything Sora had done for her, and for them to reunite even moreso.

And then we got to Sora and Kairi talking telepathically through Roxas, which was awesome, by the way (and since Roxas was trying to reach Naminé, we had some Namixas going on in the scene, too), and I became so very happy! Their hearts truly were connected, and it was just a sweet, sweet moment. It's also the first time you encounter Sora (and his deeper voice) in KHII, so that was also something.

Anyway, after that, we see Kairi send Sora her letter. I just felt that her conviction "to the boy she couldn't remember" was very heartfelt. And then at the end of KHII, where they amazingly have Kairi's letter show up at the Dark Margin (something I wasn't sure they'd do), I was blown away by the letter Sora and Kairi started reading together. Remembering the words in the menu trailer from the first game, I was shocked and amazed that Kairi's letter encompassed all of that (and that she was the one to write such a thing). From that point on, I couldn't help but feel that maybe Kairi was the narrator of all the games or something...

So after Sora reads Kairi's letter, the Door to Light opens, and our main characters are reunited once again. For all of this, that first scene we see of Kairi will always be my favorite in KHII. I could go on and on about it, but I thought it was put together well, I liked the new arrangement of Kairi's theme playing there (and her new character design!), and it was even nice to see a new part of the Islands. LOL. Oh, that amazing scene...

I also like the side of Kairi they show in that scene. She's a bit different than she was in the first game (more thoughtful and mature mostly), but with her being older there, it's only to be expected. Anyway...

 

[ChibiHearts249]

@Oathkeeper1996: I felt it, too; when Sora got rid of his own heart. Felt like a gut-punch.

 

[ajmrowland]

BBS and DDD ending sections encompass my favorite moments in general. Especially the Aqua/Terranort fight.

 

[Changer]

The first thing that comes to mind is the Xemnas fight from KH1. Earns extra praise from me for making me feel intimidated, even though I was only watching a video when I first saw it.

YX reversing time in the middle of the fight suprised me alot, still one of my favorite bosses ever. In fact, pretty much the entire World That Never Was in KH3D.

The Xigbar fight in KH2

The Xemnas laser barrage in KH2

And the opening to 3D.

 

[FudgemintGuardian]

Everything that's been mentioned so far.
Let's see what else...
Sora: Hey, I didn't catch your name. *bunch of Dream Eaters poof up*
Neku: Dream Eaters!
Sora: That's a weird name.
Neku: Not me. Them.
What's funnier is I said "That's a weird name" just before Sora did. Of course, I said it out of funny. Sora said it out of stupid XD

 

[Samhain]

Nothing beats the moment of Sora reuniting with Riku. The VA I felt was much better than Japanese's VA's

114-Kingdom Hearts 2-FMV-Riku Revealed - YouTube
"Riku...it's Riku. Riku's here....I looked for you. I looked everywhere for you!"

Song fit perfectly

 

[Watanuki-kun]

Roxas and Namine talkes, Malfecient getting stab by Ansem Riku, the Pullwings, Roxas and Xion swepping weapons XDDDDD

 

[Light]

My favorite moments in the KH series would have to be the whole of Terra's story from the point where Eraqus is about to attack Ven and he intervenes. So much emotion and heartthrob right there :'(

Aside from that, I would have to say that the speech from Riku about turning away from the darkness in DDD was pretty great.

 

[Korai]

to name one that hasnt been mentioned much, sora waking up in kh2 and finally reuniting with donald and goofy, and them all having no idea whats going on with only a next-to-blank journal tellng them to thank someone they dont know, yet being upbeat anyway.

 

[Launchpad]

The intro to Deep Jungle. That feeling of being legitimately stranded in a world without a means of escape, THAT was amazing, even though it was brief. KHIII should up the sense of adventure to match this

 

[TheHeroOfPixels]

Probobly the feeling of sucess that rushed through my body as I finally bested the World Of Chaos. I attempted that fight for countless hours after each day of school and the feeling of completion is something that is one-of-a-kind

 

[winter366]

[ChibiHearts249]

Y'kno, there are SO many dang bots that attack this thread. D:

With the release of 1.5, I love certain moments of the 3 games even more~

 

[Absent]

Mine has to be "Showdown at Hollow Bastion", or commonly known as the Battle of 1000 Heartless. I love this moment for so many reasons. First, you find out the 'truth' about Xehanort and Ansem and how it ties to the whole series, twisting your brain like crazy! Then you find out Hollow Bastion is under attack, a siege of Heartless begin to get in the city and you know "IT" has begun! You rush out to take on the Heartless with the help of the Final Fantasy characters and the infamous Demyx fight randomly comes out of nowhere. By now things are really heated. Then- BAM, Goofy "pretend" dies and now you're pumped AND emotional. Mickey gets all bad ass and heads out. Skip forward a bit, and Goofy is OK.
You take out hordes of Heartless with the aid of FF characters, but the Heartless are still coming strong. And finally...THAT SCENE!
[video=youtube;vAGFWmfXK4A]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAGFWmfXK4A[/video]
I'm left speechless. Playing 2 the first time, I thought this was the END of the game, because it totally felt like the beginning of the end. The way Donald and Goofy look back at you, nodding that everything will be alright and they each individually head off to fight multitudes of Heartless. AND SWEET ARCEUS THAT MUSIC!!!!

 

[NaminetheArtist]

I love the dramatic moments in the games *U*

Kingdom Hearts I:
When Sora and Riku are battling and yelling at each other xD
when Sora releases his heart to save kairi's

KINGDOM HEARTS II
When Axel comes to take roxas back to the organization after the struggle match.
When Roxas returns to sora
when axel and the organization members die

 

[skyfoxx]

KH1:
*The time you go to seal the keyhole in Traverse Town. The suspenseful buildup is so great and it was a big shock to see Guard Armor transform into Opposite Armor.
*The Rikunort boss fight, including the cutscenes that play before it and after it.
*Finally seeing Mickey in the Door to Darkness. They kept building up Mickey Mouse without ever showing him and when they finally do, it was in the most unexpected and awesome way possible.

COM:
*The whole Riku Replica arc was just great. Both in Sora's side and Riku's side of the story.
*Seeing Axel flat-out kill Vexen was just shocking to me at the time. Especially when Vexen is pleading that he does not want to die. And in Re:COM, they make it even worse because all Axel had to do was snap his fingers and boom, Vexen was gone. But I really liked it because it added this extra amount of (lack of a better term) darkness to this game.
*The first part of the Marluxia boss fight. Mostly because "Another Side/Another Story" played in it.
*Beating the game and seeing "Reverse Rebirth" in the title screen and I see that I can play as Riku.

KH2:
*The Roxas VS Axel fight
*The Xaldin boss fight. It was hard and super challenging, but fun at the same time. And it only made it more fun when I died and got to play as Mickey for a little bit.
*Ansem the Wise talking to Xemnas towards the end of the game. It was such a powerful scene.
*SPAM THE TRIANGLE AND X BUTTON AT THE SAME TIME!!!
*The ending to KH2. And I mean the ENTIRE ending to KH2. It actually reminded me of Return of the King when Sam and Frodo are just talking to each other as they have nowhere else to go and thought they were just going to die there. And then when Sora and Riku finally return to Destiny Islands, it felt like everything came full-circle.

358/2 Days:
*The Xion boss fight

Birth by Sleep:
*The entire part where Terra has to save Ventus from Eraqus and Eraqus essentially gets stabbed in the back by Xehanort, who also lets the world get destroyed.
*When Xehanort possessed Terra's body, the area had glowing chains all around it, and I saw the armor kneeling there with the keyblade stuck to the ground. Then hearing that music come up... and realizing that I get to play as the KH2FM secret boss.
*Finding out Ventus's origins by Master Xehanort as well as finding out about the "X-Blade."
*Finding out Vanitas's face for the very first time. Actually, his whole boss fight in general was fantastic. The music, the dialogue, the fight... everything.
*The moment when Aqua is fighting Terranort and Destati starts playing. This moment only got even better when The Guardian comes out.

Re:Coded:
*The Hollow Bastion segment, where you actually had to command Donald and Goofy because you couldn't wield a keyblade at the time.
*Fighting Jiminy's Journal (or Data Riku) with Riku's theme playing in the background.

3D - Dream Drop Distance:
*The tutorial is a freaking BOSS BATTLE! That is AWESOME!
*Fighting Wargoyle in La Cité Des Cloches
*The fight against Rinzler in The Grid in Sora's side. It's probably my favorite Disney world in the game just because they make it important due to Sora's friendship with Tron in the past.
*Levitating a giant whale with a bubble in order to kill a giant lobster. How is that NOT awesome?
*All of TWTNW boss fights
*The entire "Thirteen Darknesses" cutscene was just perfect. The reveal of what Xehanort's plan is, Lea coming in with fantastic dialogue, Donald and Goofy being able to do what no keyblade wielder has ever done before (destroy the Guardian), Leonard Nimoy's performance, etc. The entire scene is one of my favorite moments in the series.
*When Riku is diving into Sora's heart and you see all the screenshots of the past few games fly past him as Destati plays. This was the moment that made me think, "Wow... 10 years."

 

[sora x kairi]

My favorite moments of Kingdom Hearts was everything in the series from first game to last there all epic

 

[christimesfive]

In KH 1 definitely when Sora stabs himself to release Kairis heart. Also the ending is just amazing.
in CoM finding out the first Marluxia was a clone just made me mad. When Vexen started to warn Sora was another one for me. And when Axel says saving Sora was "worth it after all."
Days for me was one giant emotional roller coaster. I mean, how can you not feel bad for Roxas? And the scene when Axel says "Go ahead, keep running. I'll always be there to bring you back!" That just got me. And when he finds the Popsicle stick in the envelope. Xions death almost brought me to tears. And the ending where Roxas is fighting Riku, that was crazy. Seeing him fighting so hard, seeing Riku have to unleash his inner darkness, just a great ending. I barely remember KHII but I do remember the Dark Margin scene and the feels were intense. Just started DDD but the opening is in fact one big nostalgic explosion.
