Talk:Keyblade of heart

Where

 * What's the Japanese name? I wanna see if I can come up with a translation that's less...I dunno, lame. No offense. But something like "Keyblade of the Hearts of Man" sounds better, right?—Urutapu 17:16, October 1, 2009 (UTC)

Dark Keyblade
Though I had expected it to be removed, I'm still curious as to why this is so when this Wiki itself uses that term for it frequently. Doreiku Kuroofangu 10:20, January 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * We have a name for it, and "Dark Keyblade" is never used in official material, to my knowledge. If it is, we can readd it. Glorious  CHAOS!  20:08, January 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * Alright then, but if we have an official name why are we still using fan-coined names? Doreiku Kuroofangu 21:05, January 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * Still waiting on an answer. I'm fine with using the official name, I'm just looking for some consistency as all. "Dark Keyblade" is even the phrase being used on Wikipedia, and like I said before I see the term used a lot in the fandom. Doreiku Kuroofangu 08:01, January 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * I've no idea, honestly. Has it been referred to as the Dark Keyblade in any of the guides (Ultimania even) ? If not, then I think we should switch it to Keyblade of People's Hearts. Agi Idup Agi  Ngelaban !  08:04, January 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's already titled that. I had added a bit "also known as the Dark Keyblade". Besides using the term in pages, the Wiki here also has a redirect with that name. I'm just saying, if the fan name is going to be used here, whats the harm is noting it on the page itself? And if the fan name isn't going to be used, why are we using it? Doreiku Kuroofangu 08:31, January 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hm. Weird. Agi Idup Agi  Ngelaban !  08:33, January 11, 2010 (UTC)

Since no one cares enough about the Dark Keyblade thing, something else to bring up. Apparently BBS mentions this Keyblade in Xehanort Report #6. Taken from a GameFaqs forum:
 * "Report 6, there are three types of keyblade, keyblade of the world of light, of the world of darkness, and of one's heart. The keyblade of one's heart is a by product of the war, without it, you cant reach Kingdom Hearts. If to collect 7 hearts of pure light, you can complete the Keyblade of One's Heart, to open Kingdom Hearts. if one could open Kingdom Hearts, it means one can obtain all worlds and people in their hands"
 * Just a note, obviously the translation is spotty but it seems a reference to this Keyblade. Doreiku Kuroofangu 05:33, January 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * Judging by the fact that it uses exactly the same name, yes. Glorious  CHAOS!  06:55, January 15, 2010 (UTC)

Incomplete
"As an incomplete Keyblade, it lacks a keychain."

Where is this stated, the reason it doesn't have a Keychain? There could be several reasons, unless the above has been directly stated. Doreiku Kuroofangu 04:31, February 3, 2010 (UTC)

As of birth by sleep's release this and the dead ones in the Keyblade graveyard are the only ones without keychains.No Idea what that means but there you go.204.211.185.107 15:12, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

Besides, aren't all Keyblades artificial? Xehanort's Report stated that, all Keyblades, Realm of Light, Realm of Darkness or Keyblade of Hearts were created by men, the X-Blade being the only one not really "created", being alongside Kingdom Hearts instead of work with it like the other... to my knowledge just the Keyblade of Hearts and the X-Blade can interact with Kingdom Hearts entirely, and Kingdom Key and Kingdom Key together, being the representative Keyblades of each Realm... 192.168.1.1 12:18 (GMT), February 02, 2011

Move Template

 * Like the template says, the Xehanort Report gives it a modified name. Glorious  CHAOS!  04:14, September 27, 2010 (UTC)

Just Clarifying

 * The quote specifically says it unlocks the Keyhole of Hollow Bastion.(ಠ_ೃ)﻿ Bully!  04:12, December 7, 2010 (UTC)

"Of" or "in"? -- Neumannz ,  The Dark Falcon  04:26, December 7, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, but however, the Final Keyhole in Kingdom Hearts IS Hollow Bastion's keyhole... or at least, the artificial one. 06:10, December 7, 2010 (UTC)


 * Sure, but since its role, function, and origin are different than the natural one, can it still be called "the Keyhole of Hollow Bastion"? -- Neumannz ,  The Dark Falcon  06:13, December 7, 2010 (UTC)


 * It probably can but it does not protect the heart, so isn't Hollow Bastion still prone to Heartless attack? In addition to that, I just started wondering, why didn't Hollow Bastion fall to Darkness and end up in End of the World. Unless an artificial heart was made within the artificial Keyhole, not only that but would the place where that contraption which appears in End of the World, that the corridor with the Heartless Emblem actually leads to the door that leads to the true Keyhole? That the true heart of Hollow Bastion is within darkness, now released but still prone to Darkness overtakes? I think I just confused myself. ._. 06:39, December 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * Radiant Garden is also known as the "City of Light", so it's completely possible that it has a significant place in the universe, like Land of Departure, and that the "final keyhole" is it's Keyhole. Either way, when you lock the "final keyhole", the game tells you that Hollow Bastion has been locked.(ಠ_ೃ)﻿ Bully!  15:52, December 7, 2010 (UTC)


 * Based on?(ಠ_ೃ)﻿ Bully!  07:08, December 8, 2010 (UTC)

Ok, is this just a question of what to call it? Because I agree that we shouldn't really be calling this one the Keyhole of Hollow Bastion, since there already was one. -- 06:39, December 10, 2010 (UTC)

Move
This should be moved to "Keyblade of Hearts". Having looked through the Xehanort reports in BBS, that's what it's called, "Keyblade of People's Hearts" I'm assuming is a fan translation of the original Japanese reports. DoreikuKuroofangu 17:48, 12 May 2011 (EDT)

Me eitherAlVan 18:03, 12 May 2011 (EDT)

"Keyblade of People's Hearts refers to this specific Keyblade." - and where do you think that name comes from? DoreikuKuroofangu 18:24, 12 May 2011 (EDT)
 * EDIT - My mistake, forgot about the Director Reports. Could someone link me to them so I could read for myself please? DoreikuKuroofangu 18:33, 12 May 2011 (EDT)
 * We don't have the originals, though heartstation should (It's in the KHII ultimania, I think). The name of the Keyblade appears in the BbS ultimania, as I recall, which is where I got the nihongo. I believe you are right about "Keyblade of hearts" being the correct dub name, but we have not yet been able to confirm that the Japanese version of the game uses the "Hito no Kokoro no Kīburēdo" name in that Xehanort Report. There was a move template up at one point, though I don't know what happened to it. 03:09, 14 May 2011 (EDT)

Contradictions
Does anyone else notice that a lot of the supposed functions of the KoPH that are stated in BBS also seem to be contradicted by it? Xehanort's & Terra's Keyblades, which are by all indications Keyblades of Light, have also been shown to be able to affect hearts. And one wonders how Xemnas managed to create Kingdom Hearts if "without this Keyblade, Kingdom Hearts is forever beyond one's grasp."75.195.105.180 18:20, 16 March 2012 (UTC)


 * What says the KoPH is the only one able to affect hearts? As for Xemna's KH, I can only speculate that because it was forced into creation by fusing the collected hearts instead of occurring naturally, as the other one did, Xemnas had another way to access it. It's only fair to note, however, that we'll never know how he planned to do it, since his Kingdom Hearts was broken before he could access it normally. -- 19:20, 16 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Up until I read that Report, I was fully willing to accept that there were multiple ways to get to Kingdom Hearts, & that a Keyblade might not even be needed. But he brought it back into the plot specifically to say that it's the only way to do it. As for the other thing, to quote Ansem, "Unlike yours, THIS Keyblade has the power to unlock people's hearts." Okay, you could give a weak handwave that he was being an Unreliable Narrator for one reason or another, but that still begs the question of just what is so special about this thing.Neo Bahamut 08:06, 20 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Master Xehanort can also unlock the darkness of the heart. Case in point: Vanitas. The only thing I'm really noticing is that the KoPH allowed Sora to do it without all of the dark powers & experience supposedly necessary.Neo Bahamut 19:28, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
