thatd be awesomeI just had a werid thought: what if KAIRI was Sora’s Echo?
Enchanted Dominion/Sleeping Beauty is probably my favorite just for the music.I've been playing Birth By Sleep recently.
My favourite world so far has to be either Snow White or Cinderella, but I feel Neverland may top those.
Yeah, that world has some really awesome music!Enchanted Dominion/Sleeping Beauty is probably my favorite just for the music.
I know it's not the popular opinion, but Deep Space is my fave.I've been playing Birth By Sleep recently.

Deep Space is quite neat!I know it's not the popular opinion, but Deep Space is my fave.
Neverland is a million times better in BBS than in any other game it's in.

i amazed people still think this"How is this even possible!?"
I guess Xion for the killer Vector to the Heavens remix.So now that it's been several months since Remind released, what's your favorite data battle?
I'm still not done with all of them, currently working through Ansem, but of what I've completed Young Xehanort is probably my favorite. Difficulty wise he's on the easier end, but the spectacle and tone of his battle is great. Risk dodging through his teleport whip combo is one of the most satisfying things in KH3.

Further proof that anything can be faked, there are talented people out there that can create professional looking renders and models of this quality, i don't think image leaks will ever really work again in this day and age.There was a problem fetching the tweetCheck out this AMAZING other Sora render!
It’s NOT an image leak. It’s entirely a normal project.Further proof that anything can be faked, there are talented people out there that can create professional looking renders and models of this quality, i don't think image leaks will ever really work again in this day and age.
I know. I'm just saying that if someone can make such a good looking render, then an actual image leak as good and official as it may look, can be faked if you have enough talent.It’s NOT an image leak. It’s entirely a normal project.
Guess I should’ve specified that.
I can't get enough of them, but I guess that's what happens when you bash your head against enough brick walls. You start to enjoy it.they were too agonisingly difficult to enjoy
Well, let me explain my statement a biti amazed people still think this
every fan wanted sonic, so they didnt think he was impossible, it broke they internet cause everyone was so happy. joker is from a sub series that is on nintendo he really more filled a role similar to cloud. sora is not 4th party, every sora fan knows that, being owned by disney does not make him a 4th party, hes still a video game character.Well, let me explain my statement a bit
Sonic, Snake, Cloud, and Joker have the distinction of being true 'internet breaker' reveals that changed out expectations over who was eligible to join Smash's roster
Snake: "No third party characters"
Sonic: "Nintendo's rival"
Cloud: "Game not on Nintendo (at the time)"
Joker: "Series not on Nintendo"
I feel like Nintendo might go for one more of those in this pass and I think it's down to Sora or Chief
"They'd NEVER add Master Chief! Banjo is one thing, but he's Xbox's MASCOT! PLUS Bungie previously said NO to Dead or Alive using him, so why now?"
"They'd NEVER add Sora! He's owned by DISNEY! And Sakurai said NO FOURTH PARTIES!"
From the outside, these are two seemingly "impossible" characters with "impossible" circumstances that either one getting in would be a jaw-dropper. I'm putting my hopes in Sora of course though
disney have let nintendo use their characters beforeI would kill for Roxas in Smash, but I'm one of those people who just can't see it happening. Dealing with Microsoft is one thing, but Disney is an otherworldly beast compared to any ordinary company that produces video games. Disney doesn't even seem that interested in making video games like they used to.
I suppose miracles can happen though so until they actually shut the book on Ultimate DLC I shouldn't be too pessimistic.
In the last 10 years?disney have let nintendo use their characters before
Disney Art Academy came out in 2016.In the last 10 years?
AAAND both Magical World games for 3DS AAAND that one Tsum Tsum game for the Switch (amd a theme, IIRC).Disney Art Academy came out in 2016.
Those are Namco games.AAAND both Magical World games for 3DS AAAND that one Tsum Tsum game for the Switch (amd a theme, IIRC).
Ah, sorry. Anyways, say Xion was Sora’s Echo Fighter. Would you rather her main outfit was her black coat with the KH3 design as an alt, or vice versa?Those are Namco games.
i think id like her new outfit as the defaultAh, sorry. Anyways, say Xion was Sora’s Echo Fighter. Would you rather her main outfit was her black coat with the KH3 design as an alt, or vice versa?

I'm not too sure, but since Mavel Ultimate alliance and Disney Tsun-tsun are both exclusive to the Switch and since Disney has let other companies use their IPs within the last 10 years, I'm pretty sure they're easier to work with than you're suggesting.In the last 10 years?
You're saying this as if Kingdom Hearts isn't a crazy science experiment gone right that might not have happened if two dudes didn't get stuck in an elevator.I don't understand why people act like Disney can't work with video game companies when talking about Sora.
You know, a character who's series is a collaboration between Disney and Square-Enix (who happens to be a video game company) that's been going for almost two decades.
how sure of that are we? cause the few examples off the top of my head they were given a pretty free reign with charactersI'm just saying that Disney has a tighter grip on their characters than most companies do.
Well, as always I argue that Sora himself is still a Disney character, and with KH having a lot of original content, I can confidently say that your worries are at least misplaced.I don't really know how to feel about having Sora being in Smash
like yeah he'd be dope, but not having any sort of Disney representation would be really weird and wouldn't really capture what Kingdom Hearts is and even if Sora did get in and not have any Disney content related to the Challenger Pack, I don't know...
and with Sakurai saying that this is specifically a gaming crossover, I know that he's a video game character, but from a series that's full of characters that debut from other types of media. (I feel like I've said this in an earlier post in this thread, my apologies if that's the case)
Sora in Smash is just really confusing to me, it's not that I don't want the character, he'd be really dope to see, but it's just talking about the character and speculating his potential challenger pack just leaves a not-so-good taste in my mouth, It's kinda hard to explain in further detail, but I hope you'll get the point. (but it probably won't :') )
Well, if KH doesn't tickle your fancy, then what about MvC:I? Or Wreck-it-Ralph joining Sonic All-Stars racing? Or even all the games outsourced to Bandai Namco and the newest Avengers game being outsourced to SE? I mean, come on, I know that they're strict with their IPs, but they they clearly have a standard.You're saying this as if Kingdom Hearts isn't a crazy science experiment gone right that might not have happened if two dudes didn't get stuck in an elevator.
I'm not saying Sora in Smash can't happen. I'm just saying that Disney has a tighter grip on their characters than most companies do.
Larxene was the first fight I did, and I loved every minute of it.I had a blast with all of them, except for Xehanort.
My favorite fight was hands down Larxene. She had a lot of cool moves and was just relentless. Everything I like about fighting speed demons was personified in that match. Following that as a close second was Xemnas.
I decided to make a moveset for if Xion was an Echo:I've made a more in-depth moveset for Sora, loosely based on HMK's video.
Who?: Sora is the main protagonist of the Kingdom Hearts series. After his world was initially destroyed by the Heartless, Sora travels with two new friends in search of his old ones, Riku and Kairi. His journeys take him and his friends to Ansem, Seeker of Darkness-the leader of the Heartless-and after a year of unknown sleep following the Ansem's defeat, into a battle with the Organization XIII, a mysterious group of by Xemnas. And from there, Sora's journeys lead to complications.
Sora is a kind yet naïve boy who won't hesitate to protect his friends or anyone else he can be on good terms with. Sora is also a somewhat reckless boy, having gotten himself into dangerous situations countless times.
Importance to Nintendo: Like Cloud, Sora isn't massively prevalent on Nintendo consoles; the only games on Nintendo consoles he's appeared in are Chain of Memories for the GBA, 358/2 Days and Re:Coded for the DS, and Dream Drop Distance for the 3DS.
Intro: Sora appeared from a save point and gets into his fighting stance.
Stance/Idle 1: Sora holds his Keyblade near his right hip and looks around.
Idle 2: Sora rests his Keyblade on his right shoulder for a few seconds.
Idle 3: Sora bares his teeth in the direction he's facing.

Final Smash: Ultimate Union Ragnarok; Sora attempts to unleash Ultimate Form (Final Form in his KH2 outfit), and catches any opponents he successfully hits (8%). The trapped opponents are taken into a cutscene as Sora slashes them with hundreds of swords (32%), and finishes off with Union Ragnarok, with the Lux symbol showing as he fires it (16%) (56% total, far knockback).
Gimmick: Situation Commands; after pulling off successful combos, three arrows appear by Sora's HUD, one by one. Once a combo is successful with all three arrows, a command appears above Sora's icon, and pressing B will activate one of five attacks, four of which are Grand Magic.

>Blizzaza: If the combo is kept up by constant Blizzard spells, Sora fires a giant ice projectile that freezes the first opponent it hits, and sends all others flying (26%, medium knockback)
>Thundaza: If the combo is kept up by constant Thunder spells, a pillar of electricity appears and combos any opponents above Sora (26%, medium knockback)
>Aeroza: If the combo is kept up by Aero spells, Sora summons two tornadoes that circle him, sending opponents flying (28%, far knockback)
>Stun Impact: If the combo is kept up by melee attacks and no magic, Sora will briefly explode in a dome of light with a small electric effect, stunning anyone on the ground (23%, medium knockback)
Flowmotion: Sora's answer to acrobatic platforming. Activated when he comes in contact with a wall after Airstep, Sora can use two types of Flowmotion attacks:
>Shock Dive: An AOE slam attack Sora uses when he uses Superjump (19%, medium knockback)
>Kick Dive: Sora attacks immediately after shooting off a wall, pointing his feet at the enemy as the Keyblade spins around him.
Flowmotion's startup is indicated by a blue aura, while its fizzling out in a second is indicated by a pink aura. When Sora is using Superjump to recover, he will be left in free fall once Flowmotion goes away.

1: Sora wipes his nose and smiles.
2: "Yeah!" Sora raises his Keyblade high in the air.
1+2: Sora performs Break Time, where he spins around for a bit and says "ta-da!" as he puts his right hand on his hip and puts up his left hand.
Winposes:
1: "That's the power of the Keyblade!" Sora's victory animation from KH1, whenever he wins a tournament in Olympus Coliseum.
2: Sora spins his Keyblade and sticks it firmly in the ground, smiling (based on one of his renders based on KH1 artwork of him).

Boxing Ring Title: The Key from the Sky
Victory Music: A variation of Hikari (orchestra)
Kirby Hat: Sora's hair and necklace.
They aren't that far off as is. Just give them the Heartless emblem, glowing yellow eyes, that jagged line mouth and there ya go. A Heartless.Hey, I got an idea: what would Galleom and Duon look like as Heartless?
