Hey there. My name's Aidan. I decided to get into the Kingdom Hearts series just for the fun of it. Started in September of 2019, and have played every game (aside from the DS ones), and beaten nearly every game, since. (I refuse to play any more of this one.)
Probably won't be doing anything major here, unless a new game is announced, but you can see me be a crat over on the SmashWiki (which, hilariously, is also run by porplemontage). Part of the reason I even got into the Kingdom Hearts series was actually so I could do a Super Smash Bros.-styled moveset for Sora, given my love for Smash. This was long before his official announcement in Ultimate, but if you want to check out my own interpretation of his moveset, you can see it here.

Trivia
This is a small collection of trivia points that either have been removed or would likely be removed, but I think are still interesting enough to note somewhere. This is not done to rebel against the administrative staff; I just like trivia a lot (especially voice actor trivia).
- Tron and Joshamee Gibbs are the only characters from a live-action film represented in Kingdom Hearts to be voiced by the actor who portrayed them in their respective films.
- Rhyme is the only member of the cast of The World Ends With You to not have her voice actresses, in Japanese or English, carry over into Dream Drop Distance, being voiced in The World Ends With You by Hitomi Nabatame and Kate Higgins, respectively.
- Deep Space is the first and so far only world in the entire Kingdom Hearts series in which every character is voiced, in both English and Japanese, by their original voice actor.
- Arendelle previously shared this title as well, but lost it when Olaf had his Japanese voice changed in an update to reflect Pierre Taki's arrest.
- Halloween Town, Atlantica, 100 Acre Wood, Disney Castle, Port Royal, Castle of Dreams, Disney Town, and Toy Box are the only worlds to have a licensed Disney track in the world; of them, Port Royal is the only one to have it as the battle theme rather than the overworld theme.
- Symphony of Sorcery also has previously-composed music in the background, though the music is not licensed (as all four pieces from the world are public domain) and was only used in Fantasia, not specifically composed for it.
- Neverland is the only world to appear in multiple games, but not have the same background music twice (aside from its appearance in Chain of Memories).
- Atlantica also changed its overworld theme in Kingdom Hearts II, with its battle theme completely absent (due to...well, no Heartless, just rhythm minigames), though its original overworld theme is one of the songs for the rhythm minigames.
- There are multiple reports on this, but with no definitive proof: apparently Zachary Levi once said in an interview that he signed onto the role of Flynn Rider so that he could potentially appear in a Kingdom Hearts game, a wish that was granted in Kingdom Hearts III.
- In the prologue to Kingdom Hearts II, several lines are redubbed in the English version to reflect a voice actor change since Kingdom Hearts (namely, with Leon, Aerith, and Ansem)—for unknown reasons, King Triton's one line in a flashback cutscene is also redubbed in English, despite his voice actor not changing.
