generally speaking i will always jump to the kingdom hearts series’ defense when it comes to creative choices in the story that come across as being really silly or something (think ‘who else will i have ice cream with?’ or ‘my guess is no one’s ever loved you before!’ or ‘mickey it’s riku they put bugs in him!’) because it’s always either actually really good in context the second time around when you really think about it, or like yeah it’s funny what are you gonna do about it it can be cool and meaningful at the same time
HOWEVER. i don’t think i will ever get over the khux/khdr ending where player2 just. collapses unceremoniously on the sand on destiny islands. sudden heat stroke from wearing that full robe on a tropical island after all those years. old age heart attack. they just fall over before fading away and xehanort doesn’t even hear or see anything or seem to care. apologies to those animators that whole epilogue is such a heartfelt scene but that’s hysterical

I want to extend a huge thank you to the Soriku community. 🫶 It’s been 4 years since I joined the KH fandom, and y’all have brought me so many moments of laughter, joy, and happiness that I will treasure forever. KH has gotten me through some of the most difficult times in my life. So, I wanted to celebrate by finishing a piece that I sketched but never finished 4 years ago. They mean everything to me ☝️
