I don't need to explain the length part, hopefully. There's about ten games you need to play in order to get the full story, and that's if you wiki dive instead of playing every game with pertinent information. But it's the complexity that most KH fans seem to think doesn't exist. For some reason, they will insist that just because it's a game for kids, that means the story is one easily digested and understood by everyone.
Now, after recovering from the seizure I no doubt gave them from sprinting through that explanation, KH fans will probably say something like "you don't need to know all of that information, you could have just said she was a special girl!" And to that I say, sure, you're not wrong, but there's a difference between understanding a summary and understanding the material, lest we just say everyone understands quantum physics because we're aware it has a little bit of math and science mixed together.
Namine is indeed one of the more complicated entities in this series, but she's essential and introduced in the second game, so fuck off if you think I'm cheating by using her as an example as to how fucking bananas the lore can get. I had to talk about several different factors in order to explain nothing about her except the reason she exists.
Just... get over it, ya know? Kingdom Hearts is complicated. It is what it is. If someone tells you they won't play the game because of that, tell them they'll understand it if they play the games. Which is the truth, by the way. Telling someone it makes more sense if you play it instead of hearing other people talk about isn't wrong, but telling someone that a game series old enough to drink with over ten entries isn't complicated in the slightest is.
Many of the lyrics on Tragic Kingdom were written by lead vocalist Gwen Stefani, and were about her experiences in life. Those from No Doubt and The Beacon Street Collection were written mainly by Eric Stefani, who left the band after Tragic Kingdom was finished.[21] Therefore, the style of music changed from what the band had previously produced. Guitarist Tom Dumont explained the change in sound in an interview for Backstage Online:
The first single released from Tragic Kingdom was "Just a Girl", which details Gwen Stefani's exasperation with female stereotypes and her father's concerned reaction to her driving home late from her boyfriend's house. It peaked at number 23 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and number 10 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart.[22] The song also charted on the UK Singles Chart, where its original release peaked at number 38 and its reissue at number three.[23] The second single was "Spiderwebs", written about an uninterested woman who is trying to avoid the constant phone calls of a persistent man. It reached number five on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart,[22] number 11 on the Billboard Top 40 Mainstream chart,[22] and number 16 on the UK Singles Chart.[23]
The third single was "Don't Speak", a ballad about the breakup of Stefani and Kanal's relationship. It peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 Airplay, and maintained that position for 16 consecutive weeks, a record at the time, although it was broken in 1998 by the Goo Goo Dolls' "Iris" with 18 weeks.[24] The song was not eligible to chart on the Billboard Hot 100 because no commercial single was released, which was a requirement at the time.[25] The song also peaked at number two on the Modern Rock Tracks chart, at number six on the Adult Contemporary chart, at number one on the Adult Top 40 chart, and at number nine on the Rhythmic Top 40 chart.[22] The song also appeared on several international charts, reaching number one in Australia, Belgium, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom, number two in Austria and Germany, and number four in Finland and France.[23][26]
OK i just dont really understand why after sora says this ansem SoD is killed by the light from kingdom hearts but then as soon as they look inside they see 10 buttloads of darksides inside it, but darksides are heartess and heartless and manifestations of darkness so i dont really see how kingdom hearts is both light and dark
Kingdom Hearts was the door itself, not the actual place behind it, that was the realm of darkness. It might be helpful to think of the relationship between the dtd/dtl and kingdom hearts similar to the trinity in the bible; same things, but at the same time, not really. It should also be mentioned that the dtd or kingdom heats was also artificial so while it was kingdom hearts it wasn't the real kingdom hearts. (sorry for being confusing there). Anyway the exact way the light shined through remains a mystery because the dtd only lets darkness pass except it clearly shows light shining through. Think of it what you will.
Sorry, about that. Lost my temper for a second. But, you are so messed up. One, the door to darkness is not Kingdom Hearts. It's the door to darkness, opened when all seven princesses of heart are gathered and the keyhole is opened. It is found at the End of the World, a special world that exists in darkness despite existing in the realm of light. The door to darkness opens the path to the realm of darkness, in which Kingdom Hearts lies. It came to be there after the realm of darkness was created.
*must... resist... caps* alright. I feel completely the same way about telling you guys about how it is kingdom hearts. First of all I'll explain the trinity to avoid that "hey you just contradicted yourself argument" even though I completely agree that I will violate logic. The Trinity is The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit, and they are all God, but each of them are not eachother. This diagram should explain it, well, the relationship at least.
What I am saying is that the DTL, the DTD, and the actual moon floating above whatever are all like the father, son and holy spirit in the diagram while Kingdom Hearts in essence is God. I'd imagine you can agree with all I am saying at this point (not really much to dissagree with) except for that the DTL and DTD being two different doors. The Door to Darkness only lets darkness and beings of darkness pass, while the Door to Light only lets light, and beings of light pass. Nomura explained this in KH1's ultimania when explaining why Riku and the King didn't just walk right through to the realm of light when the door was open right there and referenced Ansem's computer in the End of the World (actually Hollow Bastion accessed by the World Terminus) as in game proof. It also just doesn't make sense for Sora to open the same door that he just sealed. And also, huh? Are we agreeing or disagreeing on kingdom hearts being artificial or not? You seem to say they were just representations of kingdom hearts (which I agree with) but you also say they weren't artificial. I can't find the interview right now, but I was almost positive it was said they were brought about artificially, both the kingdom hearts in one and two. I might have just made it up, but its so weird because I so vividly remember that interview. Anyways, I think we are just disagreeing on the definition of artificial. I'm saying artificial not in the sense that this isn't fake, but just that it was brought about by unnatural means. I consider the KIngdom Hearts that we have seen so far to just be hearts that as Saix said "we've together to make kingdom hearts" and by the time it has collected that many hearts it has assumed an existence as Kingdom Hearts (if that makes any sense). The Kingdom Hearts in Birth by Sleep was artificial as a complete and perfect assembly of all the world's hearts (special thanks to the x-blade). The Kingdom Hearts in kh1 is a bit more confusing. Just as Saix said, the heartless would gather hearts until the hearts made kingdom hearts. That Kingdom Hearts, woven from the hearts of the worlds taken by the heartless, lied at the center of The End of the World, the deep abyss, and took the form of the DTD. It just doesn't make sense for the light to be able to pass through the dtd which only lets darkness pass, and why Ansem would need to call to kingdom hearts through the dtd to the kingdom hearts in the realm of darkness if he has access to the realm of darkness at anytime in the first place. Then again, in com mickey said something about seeing the light far off in the darkness, so that brings up some more stuff (not quite in my favor). *looks up at wall of text* but I think this is enough for now.
