    THERE ARE FLASHING LIGHTS AT 19:03-19:40. SKIP THIS PART IF YOU'RE SENSITIVE TO THAT.
    Looking back, it's obvious that I completely botched the Back Cover portion of the video. I got a whole bunch of details wrong. I didn't even really acknowledge Union X despite saying that I would talk about it. It's fair to keep in mind that I made this video for 2 specific people, back when I had zero subscribers. I never expected it to get this much attention, so I didn't put in the effort to really know my stuff. If I did it today, then yeah, I would definitely have done more research. Especially because a lot more happened with Union X since then.
    But as it is, I admit that portion of the vid is bad. I'm still proud of the rest of it though.

    I really love how Riku passes because OrgXIII just has no interest in him. Sora failed because an entire group of insanely powerful people who were not at all part of the test, hijacked it against the proctors knowledge and kidnapped him. This would be like failing a math test because someone swapped the tests to not include questions about math but instead extremely personal information about the past of one specific student. That student would do fine and everyone else would fail and the teacher just shrugs and fails everyone.

      Not Snow White, Sleeping Beauty. Also "Hell" in this context refers to the place, and therefore is not a curse word, thus the G rating.
      Hunchback of Notre Dame also has a G rating, and they have a whole freaking song called Hellfire, the word damnation is also said and that came out in 1996.
      But if you think that's shocking, watch Pinocchio, also rated G, where the word "jackass" is said about 5 or 6 times. What's funnier is this becomes a double pun and is clearly being used as a swear word. Now that is getting past the censors!

A pretty large amount of animated films from the bigger names in animation could squeeze a lot in and keep the G rating from as far back as the 50s all the way through the early 80s. Heck Don Bluth's/MGM's"Secret of Nimh" film had at least one Swear, some genuinely scary action, and gruesome character death's including: One character being crushed to death (Offscreen but you do see a hand sticking out), the villain dieing to a thrown knife in the back (with blood shown), and one character having his throat slashed open and clinging to life long enough to throw the aforementioned lethal knife.

There are people who have done a full playthrough of the game and recorded all the cutscenes for people to watch. It's especially important to phase 2 of Kingdom Hearts because it introduces the main villains for the next part of the series (the Willful Darknesses if that wasn't obvious enough) and also, Sora will probably end up fighting the Master of Masters at one point because he either mistakes him for the villain or because he knows that what he's doing does eventually lead to a positive outcome but he just doesn't agree with the steps that MoM is taking to get there... that's what I think at least.

    The biggest problems that I have with the Kingdom Hearts games is how every single game is all connected with the plot of the story which makes understanding the story more complicated. I think that each Kingdom Hearts game should have had a separate storyline with all new Disney and Final Fantasy characters with a new main character that you play has.
    I also think that there needs to be a better balance of Final Fantasy characters and Disney characters within the Kingdom Hearts games. It seems way to much Disney in the worlds and not enough Final Fantasy in the games. Every Kingdom Hearts game ends in cliffhanger cutscenes so you are always left with wondering what happened. It never ends the story with any satisfaction. Which is nothing more than cheap advertising marketing to promote the next Kingdom Hearts game for people to buy.
    Also, once you get a full understanding of this complicated storyline in all of the Kingdom Hearts games you realize on how poorly written the plot of the story was. The first Kingdom Hearts game has a enjoyable simple straight forward story that was pretty good. After the first Kingdom Hearts game the story of the series just got over complicated and poorly written with the characters. Kingdom Hearts 3 made the plot to the story of the series even worse which is why after a while I lost interest in the series because there is never going to be a real ending to the story.
