Shimmy

I AM ALWAYS PRO HAIRCUT IN THIS SERIES I'm crying because there's a mullet-mohawk, the most impractical edgy haircut that covers one eye, antennae as hair, bishounen silky hair that is physically impossibly spiky at the top, and of course my personal favorite: Ginger Sonic the Hedgehog. The hair physically pains me.

Welcome, it's nice to meet you! Ahh it's really chill here so I hope you enjoy it. If you ever have any questions feel free to ask me! Al's a nice name by the way. Who/what is your favorite Kingdom Hearts Character and/or game? I'm guessing it's Roxas lol Nevermind I checked your profile, sorry for missing that detail!

"Running was the way he dreamed [...]"- Enchantment "...Or does it explode?" - What Happens to a Dream Deferred "I just ignored all the tales of a past life, stale conversations deserve but a bread knife."- Step And of course... “24” -A beautiful work of art I have a lot of favorite quotes and the above are just a few.

I've literally had a ps4 for like 3 years and have yet to buy a single game for the ps4, and yet they're still discussing over the possibility of a ps5. ...whatever floats your boat Sony.

Being lactose intolerant and disliking eggs/dry foods kind of leaves me with a strong distaste for breakfast foods. I just eat leftovers like a weirdo instead.

I would like to thank the academy

I WAS LAUGHING MY ASS OFF BECAUSE I REALIZED THIS IS LITERALLY THE ONLY DAY OF THE YEAR MY MLG SAIX SIGNATURE IS REMOTELY ACCEPTABLE. HAPPY 420 TO ALL

Certainly a few would take the forum seriously? I'm admittedly not as involved with the community as I could be, but from what I can gather you seem to have a good reputation, so others would likely ask legitimate questions.

THANK GOODNESS I WAS PREPARING FOR THE SALT I'D HEAR FOR BEING THE ONLY ONE WHO'S FAVORITE IS DREAM DROP DISTANCE. Dream Drop Distance is that problematic fave that you hear multiple legitimate criticisms for but can't help but love. The story while admittedly faulty in some areas kept me thoroughly entertained (Sora's a cheese but a likable cheese), and my inner five year old looked at the Dream Worlds and Time Travel in complete fascination despite the complications to plot. Riku's character development was cathartic, the Dream Eaters faintly reminded me of Pokémon which always puts me in a good mood. The ridiculously unbalanced gameplay was wicked fun to manipulate and play around with... I love Dream Drop Distance fight me

Thank you very much kind sir B)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Thank you so much! As for Leopardos, I honestly don't have much of a clue. I've heard that a possible connection might be that apparently in Dante's inferno, Dante encounters a Lion, She-wolf, and Leopard in the level of hell connected to gluttony. Bare in mind that I'm not a particularly religious person and I'm just going off of what I've been told, and honestly based off of what little research I've done it doesn't give much of a connection. I have yet to find a source that confirms that the encounter takes place in the level of hell dedicated to gluttony, and the Leopard's sin in the story appears to be that of lying, not gluttony...? So basically, as of right now I'm just considering Gula an outlier ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I would just like to confirm that I did not use google translate lol, I used my own Japanese knowledge that comes from being a struggling Japanese teenager. I also asked my mother to read it too, considering she was actually born there unlike me (I'm a fraud I know) just to confirm, and the wiki was just the cherry on top. 角のある獅子 In google actually translates to 'lion with a corner' Because 角 also means corner/angle along with horns, but given context I think we all know what it actually says lmao Thank you for defending me ;w;

I'm sorry I didn't mean to spoil ;A;. Should I edit the post to add a spoiler warning? AND YEAH SAME DUDE. I thought this thing was a goat for years, I feel betrayed lol.

Seeing as how you need to perform heart-math in order to figure out how viable for keyblade wielding you are in this damn series I'd assume it's something that is entirely possible. Just not incredibly practical lol (floating aura or not, managing 2+ key-shaped weapons is not an efficient way to fight someone)

Just a warning guys, potential spoilers for Kingdom Hearts χ and Unchained χ ahead! So I was just digging around through concept art and found something interesting I figured you guys might enjoy (or not I'm easy lol) At this point I'm sure that everyone and their mother is aware of the fact that Xehanort's keyblade bares a strong resemblance to the foreteller’s keyblades. Xehanort’s keyblade matches perfectly with each foreteller’s keyblade, complete with the eye of darkness and an animal motif. Bear→ Snake → Unicorn → Fox → Leopard → Goat It makes perfect sense! Xehanort's keyblade is a goat and goats represent lust so it must represent his lust for darkness. Brilliant! Except the thing is Xehanort’s keyblade is not a Goat. We’ve been duped. Digging through concept art I found this image in the Kh ultimania dream drop distance concept art. Bare in mind the art is on Young Xehanort’s keyblade, but I think we can all agree that the animal symbol remains the same on both versions of Xehanorts’ keyblades. When examining this image I noticed a piece of information that kind of struck me surprising. This says 角のある獅子 (koku no aru shi shi) or horned lion. Yeah my head hit the desk out of exasperation at this moment too. Ok so I’m a disgrace of a okinawan teenager and I don’t trust my japanese enough to translate things efficiently, so I did a bit more snooping around. Apparently khwiki was aware of the fact that Xehanort’s keyblade is a horned lion too. Ok so if you knew that Xehanort’s animal motif was a Horned Lion and not a goat/ram I commend you. I’ve been calling the thing a goat for years and so has everyone I’ve ever talked Kingdom Hearts with. The fact that Xehanort’s animal motif is a -ahem- horned lion is actually pretty significant when it comes to comparing him with the foretellers. Namely because it changes the whole sin game entirely. With the foretellers names's revealed only two sins are left: lust and pride. Originally myself and many others who I’ve discussed with pegged the original owner of Xehanort’s keyblade as the inevitable lust representative because of the obvious goat motif. It’s not all bad though, because as I’m sure you’re aware if you took the time to look at the chart above you’ve noticed that Lions correspond to Pride in the Ancrene Wisse. Seeing as how Pride is often depicted as the deadliest sin of all (and given Grand Daddy Nort’s track record) this makes sense. However I think it might be important to note something I’ve mentioned once before: that Goats and Lions mixed together create a traditional chimera. It's mainly just food for thought though. I’m not much of a person who vocalizes their own predictions and such, but I’m actually rather curious to see your guys’ thoughts on this. Either way I hope you learned something new (and if not sorry for wasting your time haha it was legitimately surprising to me ok).

Tfw you collect a bunch of information on a topic you're emotionally invested into, and create a theory with sound evidence, but fear that your emotion is altering your perception which therefore marks your evidence as invalid.

Bingo. Now we all have our theories on Xehanort's keyblade, but that doesn't necessarily mean we all share ours with other And of course this creates a whole new variable to the whole connection to foretellers thing. We just don't know as of yet. But again, it's fun to speculate.

Ah I apologize. I tend to be a bit loosey goosey with my wording and it's made worse when I don't sleep properly, but I'll try to fix that habit X) And of course that's also to be taken into consideration. I've got an itch that the foretellers' keyblades weren't destroyed but we have no confirmation as of yet. As of right now all we have is Master Xehanort's Keyblade which bares a suspicious resemblance to the foretellers' keyblades.

I have said this before and I will say it again: chill

Congrats on getting it to work on your laptop! Now go play your heart out B)

I think he meant that it's comparable due to the 'eye of darkness mark' as I like to call it. Unless there was yet again a story update in χ that I missed because of school. If that's the case feel free to correct me. Technically speaking though, if Master Xehanort's keyblade is the most ancient that would mean it would have to be the Master of Master's keyblade originally (in which case the End of Pain still has the viable option of being the sixth foreteller's keyblade but I digress), but that just depends on how literally we take the claim 'most ancient'. Personally speaking, while I think it's possible that End of Pain might have been connected to the foretellers somehow, I don't think it's completely confirmed or anything. I don't think the 'eye of darkness' is enough to associate the End of Pain to the foretellers yet, mainly due to the fact that Riku's and Vanitas's keyblades also have the same mark and they don't have connections to the foretellers (although they both have some connection to Xehanort wink wink). Terra also has two keychains that give his keyblade the same mark. That being said it's fun to speculate the possibilities because End of Pain does bare some resemblance to the foretellers' keyblades (even if not to the same extent as Xehanort's keyblade). If it is the sixth foreteller's keyblade, that name would make me wonder what exactly is their motives exactly. Hmmm.

I am disgustingly passive about my entertainment so to be completely honest I'd probably just ignore all of them with little bother, unless to say they're being extremely obnoxious etc, so I voted other #LetShimmyGrowABackBone2016

Yup. The foretellers used the Book to foretell the future as well as 'borrow power from it' in order to defeat the darkness that plagued them/whatever
