Two things that I adore about the Kingdom Hearts VR Experience, mainly because I just love Kairi way too much and will always eat up any "new" content I can get with her. I've been meaning to make this post for a while.

I love the different angles on the one Destiny Trio scene from KH1 (that really, of course, they had to do for this, because Sora's somewhat removed from the scene, as you are Sora, so to speak in this VR experience). It's just really cool and interesting to see, for a number of reasons. The Riku and Kairi moments in this scene in particular are really nice to get a new perspective on. I also wouldn't be surprised, if vidders could use this scene in an amv and pretend it's a different KH1 memory--to pretend and give us more KH1 scenes of the Destiny Trio's past--as opposed to one we already had from different angles:

2. In the one KHII scene, where Xemnas is somewhat trying to manipulate our heroes with his "what other choice might we (Nobodies) have had? We, who were turned away by both Light and Dark" speech, in the original scene, Kairi had fish face/default face, whatever fandom term you want to use refer to it. A.K.A., they left her face unanimated there:

But in the VR version of this scene, they've gone back in and animated it, so it's nice and expressive. Which, of course, you love to see:)

HAPPY 21ST ANNIVERSARY, 'KINGDOM HEARTS' (2002) VIDEOGAME SERIES!!

(P.S. I headcanon Sora as having been a.f.a.b. and using he/theirs/her/themself pronouns!)

[Image Description: Sora from K.H.1's final scene talking to someone who is off-screen. He's shown from the upwards, including her covered right shoulder being shown. The background consists of the transgender pride flag on the upper half of the edit, the gender nonbinary pride flag on the edit's lower left quarter from the Viewer's Point Of View, and the genderfluid pride flag on the edit's lower right quarter from the Viewer's POV.]

Enough of the trope where memory loss undoes the damage or the corruption or whatever. More content where removing memories just removes the context.

The tragedy of needing to grieve and not knowing what or who you lost or why. The angst of having trauma and being denied the awareness that it's trauma. The suspense of being different somehow and left to wonder how and when. The tension of knowing that something is off and you can't find where it hurts. The Adventure Zone gets it. Kingdom Hearts gets it.

There is an aching inside you and you don't know how it got there.

people who go through the main tags of big and tumultuous fandoms looking for new fresh good posts to reblog are essential to any circle. they’re like true hunter gatherers leaving the safety of settlement and braving the unknown wilderness to find food for the flock. they risk their lives every day and will come back with a few scratches at best and severe psychological damage at worst

#peach rambles #hall of fame i guess #i love hearing everyone share their stories in the comments. me personally? this is about kingdom hearts #usually the main culprit is disdain and dusty old misogynistic takes for kairi (the main girl) #there's x reader occasionally #cursed content with random disney characters #or people who complain about how much the series has expanded #that don't understand that over half the story is contained in the so-called 'side games' #or just generally dusty takes that have been disproven already

I really do think that it’s good for the soul to be unironically pretentious about something. Not in a gatekeeping kind of way but in a “yes, it really is that deep and I would love to enthusiastically and passionately explain why” kind of way.

#mine is shakespeare #hamlet #specifically #although i will defend #romeo and juliet #to the ends of the earth #also #the iliad #the odyssey #literature #writing #classics #although it can be so much more than just books #i also think that I would defend the story of kingdom hearts like this as well #probably homestuck too #completely unironically #birdy chirps

So, basically what's happening here is that I've seen the theory that the sort of strange animation moment in the Kingdom Hearts cartoon is because it's supposed to be Kairi there for a second. I don't know if I really believe that, but I decided to make a post about it, anyway.

And then I decided to make a parallel post about when Kairi kind of calls Sora in the game like that, if it's true. The closest I could think of was when Kairi told Sora she believed in him, of course, because if she was there in the unaired Pilot, it was after that that Sora found his confidence and had his "I'm a hero" line. And also when Kairi saves Sora from Ansem Seeker of Darkness, since all three of our heroes are there at that time, like in the Cartoon That Never Was scene, allegedly (even if Riku's possessed in the KH1 scene:().

And then this last part is parallel shots of Sora and Kairi (and then an edited pic I made, showing how similar the shots are). Because if that rumor is true, it sounds like Sora was supposed to turn into Kairi for a second there. And we've never gotten anything like that in canon (though we did get the reverse in Melody of Memory), so I made one myself. -shrugs-

When I was young we had this little blue Toyota truck. It was an absolute piece of shit, but it stayed in the family for ages.

It was really easy to steal and consequently got stolen several times. We always got it back though. Anyone could’ve stolen it, really. With no car jacking experience necessary anyone could drive off in it. Even you. This truck was like an excessively friendly lab, it would go home with anyone.

Foremost in ease of theft, neither door locked. But second and only slightly less easy: the truck would accept anything as a key.

My dad kept a loose saw blade on the dash to use as a key. The first time I saw him do it I was horrified that instead of a key the ignition answered to a loose bit of a power tool.

When my dad saw my expression he held up the saw blade and made an attempt to connect with the youth.

He said, “Look! It’s the keyblade!”

I thought I was losing it but no, kh1 Sora's fast swimming animation really does change after you've been to Atlantica. It's a small detail, but also a cute and smart one 🥺

#edit nobody say anything i didn't realise that the dolphin kick ability extended to beyond atlantica ok i am dumb #and i didn't even think to read over its description twice. ok #but still!!! by lore he Did learn to swim better there so (*copium*) #kingdom hearts #video games #mytext #what i learned since making this post is that people don't read tags
