She's explained in CoM and KH2 but just in case because I missed the stream She's Kairi's Nobody. She got made when Sora stabbed himself in the chest in KH1. She has superpowers because Kairi is super special.

Organization XIII has superpowers too, though, so it's not really "Kairi's super special" as much as it is "if you're a strong enough Nobody you will you get super powers", apparently.

Namine is still extra special. She gets mind powers because she's the Nobody of a Princess of Heart, something that isn't actually supposed to happen, because Nobodies only form from people with darkness in their heart and definitionally Princesses of Heart have none.

The Kingdom Heart setting was not prepared for Sora to basically stab himself in the heart.

The difference between Kingdom Hearts and Drakenier is that when the convoluted, confusing plot of a Drakenier game is laid out in logical order and explained in simple terms, it gets easier to understand. Seriously, I knew less about the narrative of Kingdom Hearts after reading a comprehensive summary of the franchise in in-universe chronological order.

He spent months failing to figure out why mark hamill’s character was named Eraqus. Taro Yoko always does things that personally make him cry.

Master Yensid, Master Erasqus. Big mysteries. My FAVORITE Kingdom Hearts trivia is that Sora was originally going to be a furry with a chainsaw. http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100828135306/kingdomheartsvn/vi/images/d/de/Lion-Sora-Chainsaw.jpg

If you look at (almost) any one event in Kingdom Hearts in isolation, it seems to make narrative sense. Good luck trying to fit the whole thing together, though.

Ever since I learned about the existence of Kingdom hearts, I have never been able to get over the thought of "Who thought crossing Disney with Final Fantasy was a good idea?". I mean really, how did such a thing come into existence as a mainstream game?
I can have moments of... eccentricity and sometimes be quite curious about things. Please forgive me if I do something foolish or rude.

Everyone always names the three in the same order every time: Sora, Donald, Goofy. It's kind of weird, actually. yes I know that ruins the joke but it had to be said

Square was wanting to develop a new action IP and just needed a marketable character, and Disney had a couple they could spare.

Basically, there was a pitch meeting at Square to make a new game with full 3D movement to rival Super Mario 64, but someone off-handedly said that you'd need Disney characters to get the same level of brand recognition as Mario, Nomura overheard, volunteered to direct, then one of the guys in the original conversation got the above-mentioned chance to make a literal elevator pitch, and the rest is history.

You forgot the magic ingredient. MONEY. The first game made money hands over fist. At the same time, Square's other works at the time were rather weak. Andyzero fucked around with this message at 22:43 on Feb 3, 2018 |
