Kingdom Hearts II

[Spencer]

aaah, so thats why. That makes me happy in a way... Never been a big fan of the Little Mermaid... ^^;;
Thanks for telling me... Now I dont have to wander around like an idiot not knowing what to do. XD ((Theres a reason I hesitated to play this game...^^;; ))
Ah well... onto Halloween Town. x3

Well, if I didn't have a sister, I would have never seen it. But she has me knowing the words to the song sadly. :( Sorry to go off topic. I didn't know they have mini games on Kingdom Hearts...

 

[Taemin]

XD I haven't beat it yet, like you know, but it IS going too fast...
See this is why I don't play it for long hours at a time... I'm trying to make it last... ^^;; But I only have two or 3 more worlds to beat... T-T

Yeah, I have friends that are KH junkies...they got me into it... ^^;

Also, oddly enough, I know the words to english and Japanese versions of the theme song. (Santuary) ...
Surprisinly the english doesn't sound any different then the Japanese...
I was surprised because the 2 themes to the first game were so different. o___o

You have to play some of them to progress in the game. =P The "jobs" you do as Roxas in the beginning tutorial are among some of the minigames. If you look in the journal, each world that has minigames will have a minigames section, I believe. Plus, you can also view all of them (along with the requirements for beating them for journal completion) in the section for all of them, but I can't remember which header that's under. x_X;

Mm...you're still going through the worlds for the first time, right? After you complete these, there's some plot advancement and then you have to go through the worlds again. Though, the second time it's much shorter than the first visits.

As for the songs...the first two were fairly similar. But I like how Passion and Sanctuary are exactly the same as far as music goes. ^_^; They're such pretty songs. I like the lyrics to Sanctuary better but I like the sound of Passion more. (The middle part in the opening version where they're on the spiral stairs sounds weirder in English. o_O) I actually heard that Utada wrote the song originally in English and then had to rewrite it for the Japanese game. So maybe that's why they sound exactly the same? oO;

 

[Taemin]

Wow...at least its not as short as I thought.. x__x thats bad and good... because I rented it... Still... Woohoo! I can play for hours again!

hmmm, she did? Yeah that could explain it...
n' Yeah, I noticed that it was different in a couple parts...but its only a few notes...so it didn't really bother me...
For some reason I like the part of the tune where Sora, Kairi and Riku are laying in the sand, holding hands, and then Sora falls through the water and turns into Roxas... I dunno why but that parts addicting to watch/listen to! o___o (Expecially when you have the video up on YouTube and you hold the all mighty power of the Rewind button...)

 

[Cherrim]

"You showed me how to see that nothing is whole and nothing is broken."

That's my favourite part of Sanctuary. For some reason I find the words so enchanting. @_@; My favourite part of Passion, again, is that part in the middle where the beat changes and (on the FMV) they're on the spiral stairs. I also like the part after that with the whistle noises or whatever if only for the fact that it has Marluxia in it~ xD

When I played through, I just did it as fast as I could since I loved it so much. I've since spent so much time perfecting my main file or replaying again in Proud and such. XD;

 

[Taemin]

That quote is actually very amusing.... So meaningful...T-T *anime cries*
.... *slaps self* ....Anyhoo...

XD mhm. Marluxia is awesome. <3
Psh...I'll be lucky to beat it once...Though, I'm gonna buy it eventually, so I'll end up replaying it mulitple times probably... x3

I wouldn't stand a snowballs chance in h3ll on Proud... ^^; Ah well... Pratice, pratice...

 

[Shadow]

I'm not sure about that. I'm pretty sure you see Vexen fade into darkness after Axel assassinates him, right? (Probably the same case with the others but I got stuck on Vexen when I started replaying CoM...his "ohohoho" during battle makes me laugh too hard.) So yeah, once they fade away, they more or less cease to exist. So I don't see how DiZ could get ahold of them before that happens. I could be wrong though--again, I haven't properly played that much in a while. I guess I'll do that tonight and see how far I get and what happens. :x

When Roxas beats Axel early in the game he disappears into darkness like the others and he comes back later on. Though it could possibly leave only remnants.

As much as I'd love for Flower Boy and Larxene to make a return...remember, Kingdom Hearts 3 is going to come out on PS3, meaning they'll almost indefinitely have to remake the engine from the ground up (again). That means they wouldn't be using the same character models. Unless we get another spin-off or in-between game, I think they must have been modelled just for that. Oh, plus they were shown in the cutscene during the Roxas tutorial. At one point we get that view of the Organization sitting high up in chairs--the only ones with their hoods off at this time are those who fell at Castle Oblivion plus Axel and Roxas. :O So their 3D models did appear and have more significance in the game than simply for the Character Links section.

Right, I forgot about that scene. Also Jafar has his vizier model for only a flashback scene, so meh. Sqaure-Enix is that extravagant. Hehe.

 

[Taemin]

So there really will be a second one.
Awesome.
I'm so getting a PS3 for that reason... since theres not too many PS games I like... ^^;;

Keeping that in mind...I'm now going to go play KH2 until I fall alseep with the controller still in my hand...

I actually hated Flower Boy up until very recently. I had such problems against him in Chain of Memories that I couldn't think of him without, well, complaining incessantly. XD But then once I beat him I let myself like him. It's probably just because I find him so amusing, what with the whole "I'm evil, but I'm going to kill you with an attack called Blossom Shower" and all. xDD

When Roxas beats Axel early in the game he disappears into darkness like the others and he comes back later on. Though it could possibly leave only remnants.

However, the world Roxas was in when the game began wasn't real; it was a computer simulation. So when Axel 'died' in that world, he couldn't really die. It was probably more like the data of himself that he'd hacked onto the system was deleted or removed. :O Though honestly, I'd prefer it if the Organization wasn't really gone. They're the reason I like the game so much, after all. XD

 

[Taemin]

*Really is going to get off and play KH2 soon....yeah...right after she makes this post*

So Axel didn't really die??
...That makes me happy... Axel is awesome-ness.. x3
Yeah....I felt sorry for him after I beat him down, because I liked him. T-T
But 'least I know he's not dead...

....and NOW I'm gonna go play KH2 until I fall alseep holding the controller...

 

[LishaKara]

Heh. Yet another KH2 obsessor here. You know you are when your videogame-clueless friend actually knows a lot about the series just from your constant blabbing about it. *grins sheepishly* Heh. But for me, it's the music that's one of the best things about it, story aside. Not just Passion and Sanctuary, but the orchestral pieces too, although I do love Utada's songs. ^^

 

[Cherrim]

Obsessions are fun. ;p But yeah, basically all of my friends know all the main characters and plotlines from the games just because that's all we end up talking about thanks to me (and several of my other obsessed friends :D).

The music for the games is gorgeous. I simply love Yoko Shimomura's compositions. @_@ Honestly, for the last few months the OST is almost all I've been listening to, save the few times I opt for an Uematsu OST instead, heh. My favourite songs from KH2 are actually Thirteenth Struggle and Tension Rising before the Hikki songs. ^_^; But really, every song is amazing. @_@;

It's really strange going back and hearing Thirteenth Struggle in Chain of Memories once you're used to the full KH2 orchestral version. XD

 

[Ice Kid]

Have you guys ever noticed sora's blank expression? it usually comes up when sora's in a scene while someone else is talking. I always cracks me up when I see it.

Oh, I love the 13th Struggle. *whistles* Also love instrumental Hikari and Passion, Dearly Beloved, Missing You, Organization XIII, and the medley of the songs from the trailer and Deep Dive. Kairi's theme I can play on my flute :3 And you're right about 13th Struggle in :Com. It sounds all . . . Gameboyish! LOL.

Yeah, that happens a lot, especially in the speech-bubble scenes. My favorite face that he makes is the one in Agrabah when the peddler asks for treasure. He looks like he wet his pants from the look on his face there! It's also funny when you talk to someone and their lips don't stop moving! XD I've gotten a good ROFL out of that, especially when it's a very serious character speaking.

 

[Ice Kid]

Uhh... Mine was probably Jack Skellington, I thought he had the coolest attacks.... Playing with Riku was cool too.. and Mickey shows up a few times. So yeah.. I think for me it would be Jack or Riku. yeah.

 

[Rioku_Zanketa]

call the FF characters,mickey,TRron,Jack Sparrow,Beast,Simba...

but above all else,....RIKU!!!!fighting besid him,just us two,against the last boss,...that would be just like me and my older bro.!!!!^____^

No, but he's going to die.

Play that long and it'll cause you to lose.

As for the music, I liked that they included an orchestral version of Simple & Clean in the ending, but I think that they should have switched the theme music (S&C for 2 & Sanctuary for 1)...Simple & Clean was too good for it to be stuck to just one little bit in the end...

Also, does anyone know what the lyrics for Sanctuary are? I know all of it but one part that keeps repeating...

 

[Cherrim]

Yo, watch your spoilers--some people don't like knowing things before they happen. ._.;

As for the lyrics, you mean the part that doesn't sound like English? That's "I need more affection than you know" backwards. :O But regardless, you can find the lyrics here. (Media -> Theme Song Lyrics) :x

 

[Shadow]

This topic should have spoiler warnings, specifically for Riku (my choice).

I beat the game having no idea Mickey could save you. I read it on a forum later that day infact. Later had it happen on my new Proud Mode save file. =/

After the obvious Riku, the two Jacks are a close runner up, savvy?

 

[Shadow]

You know, I can't believe I forgot to mention what really got on my nerves during the course of the game.

Sora: "Hi. I'm Sora. This is Donald. This is Goofy."
~~
Donald: "Donald Duck."
Goofy: "Name's Goofy."
Sora: "I'm Sora."
~~
Sora: "I'm Sora, this is Donald, this is Goofy."
~~
Jack Skellington: "Hello Sora!"
Sora: "I'm Sora. These are my friends Donald and Goofy."
Jack Skellington: "I know..."
~~
Donald: "I'm Donald Duck."
Goofy: "I'm Goofy and this here is Sora."
~~
Sora: "Hello Mr. Monster, I'm Sora. Meet Donald and Goofy too."
Hydra: "RAAAAAAAAAWR!"
Phil: "GET UP ON THE HYDRA'S BACK!"
~~Spoilers~~
~~
~~
Xemnas: "If darkness and light are eter--"
Sora: "Hi, I'm Sora and Donald and Goofy."
Riku: "Are you feeling alright, Sora?"
Sora: "These are my friends, Donald and Goofy. I'm Sora."
Xemnas: "O_o;;;"
~~
Kairi: "Look, it's the King's seal."
Sora: "Hello, I'm Sora. This is Donald and Goofy."
Kairi: "-.-"
Riku: "-_-*"
*Riku tosses Sora into the ocean, cue Simple and Clean as Sora falls through water to Awakening*
