What was your favorite moment in Kingdom Hearts II?

Sora and Riku reuniting when Sora realizes who Riku is.

The final battle of Sora and Riku against Xemnas.

I'm pretty bad at picking favorites, and this isn't much of a "moment," but the Sora, Riku, and Kairi reunion is a standout. On my first playthrough I got so excited at the building anticipation of the three of them reuniting, especially when I realized it'd been years since I'd last seen them together. (My play order was kinda weird, haha)

Not even just the emotional Sora and Riku reunion, but all of it; Riku saving Kairi and Namine, Kairi throwing herself into battle without a weapon or any fighting capability to help Sora, then Riku handing her a totally girly and Kairi-ish Keyblade as the two fight their way through the castle together. And all the while he looks like Ansem but she doesn't doubt him at all, and then she helps Sora realize it's him (and Sora thinking he was Ansem but thanking him for helping Kairi anyway!!). And of course the SoKai hug, too. lol

Idk, I think TWTNW is one of the series' best dungeons and has some of KH's best writing, and also peak Kairi. Why do people act like she's useless, again? In hindsight, I also feel like KH2 was the last time the three were an actual Trio, as the later games tend to break up their scenes and make them into duos.

The rest of the dungeon aside, the final battle with Xemnas is also awesome, even if you only include his final form. KH2 really has the most cinematic battles in the series, so just about all of them are great moments. There are plenty of other wonderful moments, too, like Sora and Donald getting into a fight with Yao, and I just find its Halloween Town really cute, haha.

I want to play KH2 again. XD
