Xehanort / Ansem Seeker of Darkness / Xemnas Speeches

- Update: Now with a Darkness Counter!
I picked out what were in my opinion the best speeches given by Master Xehanort, 'Ansem' and Xemnas through the Kingdom Hearts games. This ... is ... the Xehanort Saga montage! Enjoy the sermons on darkness and nothingness.
Clips provided by kh-vids.net
I do not own any of the material used, I'm just a fan who put this together due to an obsession with villain monologues.
Leonard Nimoy didn't die. He's just forgone his brittle old body and is now taking control of a younger, stronger, new one.
And then we'll have to deal with Oxdarnel or... Denalxor...
Basically some guy in a black robe and a scrambled Leonard name with an X thrown in.
Leonard Nimoy will be missed. He was a great Spock and an excellent Master Xehanort.
Zachary Quinto is already half Nimoynort.
He was a vulcan, not a Doctor.
Solidus Rex Vulcan mind transfer.
Chdonga All of this.^ Just...all of it.
Ansem turned into a boat
Xemnas got a new coat
Xehanort became a goat
Young Xehanort likes to gloat.
Terranort held Aqua by the throat.
No heart has no lines to quote
Fun fact, Eraqus is voiced by Mark Hamill and Xehanort is voiced by Leonard Nimoy. So Luke Skywalker kinda just fought Spock.
And Luke was killed by Spock because the force was illogical. :P
And in the end, Luke Skywalker was victorious.
@@TemplarBlonic You forgot that Spock turned into Roy Batty (y'know, since the late Rutger Hauer replaced Nimoy in _III_) after coming back
Is that why Xehanort's ears are so pointy?
@@arxoannixtram7107 sci fi fantasy doesn't need logic for everything lul star wars 1-6 are still better than star trek
10:09 "You're Nobodies! You don't even exist! You're not sad about anything!" ... Roxas: "Well, that's rude" ...
@@arikatheprincessofhearts2043 honestly that was pretty racially motivated
"Take a look at this tiny place. To the heart seeking freedom, this island is a prison, surrounded by water. And so this boy sought out to escape from this prison."
After playing the future games I like this quote even more now, it really seems like he's describing Xehanort.
yeah also Riku i still think Xehanort and RIku have some sort of connection
apart from Riku being possessed by Xehanort, and having him confront the part of Xehanort that still resided inside him in Chain of Memories? Which ended up with him adopting Xehanort's Heartless' form for the majority of Kingdom Hearts 2?
ansem,casually mocking xehanort xD
Kurt Crockenberg Well he's not connected because of Terra, he is connected because Riku and Xehanort are the same kind of person. Riku wanted to leave Destiny Islands for the same reasons and mastered control over darkness like Xehanort does. That's why they are connected. Unlike Xehanort though, Riku maintains a balance of light and dark in his heart.
@@LuigiaTV Riku told Ansem how he was able to control Darkness without any harm to him and will always be in control.
"Consume the darkness, return it to light!"
"A man like Xehanort will have many roads left open."
RIP Leonard Nimoy.
RIP Leonard Nimoy.
HellfireComms And Chikao Otsuka who is Xehanort's Seiyuu.
HellfireComms ahem
I'm still laughing at the fact that the first clip is essentially Luke Skywalker arguing with Spock of all people. That would make an interesting argument over the existence of the Force with Spock saying belief in the Force is illogical.
LOL
Jana Lybarger And don't forget that they were both trained by Count Dooku.
You know guys, I can't help but shake the feeling Xehanort is obsessed with darkness...
I think that it's just that Square Enix is just overly obsessed with the word
Mike Bottomless Pit Dunham Which pretty much explains why most of the characters in Final Fantasy XV wear all black.
No difference then the sith or the jedis talking about the dark side or the force
DARKNESS
You know, I love how they connected Kingdom Hearts 1 and Birth By Sleep by having Terranort and Ansem using the same Darkness monologue.
I feel it was to make the players sure that, in fact, it was ansem's somebody, xehanort. No more terra, only a shell.
Well Ansem sod is the heart tank of the old geezer after all the moment he got artificially younger when kicking terra out of his own existence so it fits
Especially the clothing of xehanort
And the robe man going back into time to his younger self and him hunch backing over
Just saying KHDDD and KH3 officially says as much with young xehanort cutscene and KH3 artificially dark riku
Master Xehanort: *points at Ventus* Chi Blade!
Ventus: Um...yeah, this is my Keyblade, what about it?
Master Exhanort: No, I mean the Chi Blade!
Terra: Yeah, we all have Keyblades.
Master Xehanort: No, I mean *Chi* Blade!
Aqua: Are you feeling all right, Xehanort...?
Lel
+Cielo Pachirisu That actually bugs me- why don't they just call it "The EX Blade" or something?
Dan Eyal Because the Greek alphabet is more dramatic!
its also pronounced "Kye" instead of "Key". they could've just said Kye lol
Can be pronounced in both ways, in English.
Billy Zane as Ansem just took the game to a whole other level
Xemnas has such a badass voice!
In-deeeeed he does.
I'm surprised that Xemnas was the only one out of Xehanort and Ansem that never wielded the keyblade
MovieManiac 95 Maybe it's just because the Keyblade can be wielded by the darkness or the light, not Nothing. With the exception of Roxas and Xion, maybe Vanitas.
MovieManiac 95 xemnas could wield the keyblade he just never did other wise the rest of the organization would find out about his plans to use them all as vessels. Because they were all told they would be creating kingdom hearts to receive a heart
Xehanort “Darkness cannot be destroyed, it can only be channeled.”
To be honest, "poetic excuses" is like...the entire plot of these games
I wish Billy Zane would voice Ansem again. So good.
Xemnas: "What other choice might we have had?"
Me: "You know full well Xemnas. All you and the other nobodies had to do is go out and experience life like a normal person. Instead you LIED to them and told them they had no hearts!
I honestly never believed Xenmas and DiZ's bunk about nobodies being heartless even way back during the release of KH 2. If Axel had no heart there is no way that he would have sacrificed himself for Sora like he did.
aliastheabnormal
Yeah. To me it always seemed like that they could have had hearts if they had just believed in it.
Like for christ's sake Naminé even shed a tear and she's a nobody too.
Naminé, Xion, Roxas, Axel, they could all feel emotions and so had a heart.
They were just so 100% sure that they didn't have a heart that they thought it was just an illusion.
I mean he tried to live like the first time and look what happened he got possessed and do I need to remind you what happened the first time if you look at dark road I mean come on
Billy Zane Was perfect for Ansem "Heartless" His voice was perfect, he could be coy, smooth, and angry all at the same time. I would paid himself to keep with the series throught the the other games instead of his replacement actor
Yeah, I like Richard Epcar as much as the next guy but he can never really replace Billy Zane as Ansem.
Richard Epcar is pretty good. How can you go wrong with the same voice actor for Raiden from Mortal Kombat?
In the end, EVERY heart returns to the darkness whence it CAME!
I will always miss and cherish Leonard Nimoy's talents, exploits, and persona. He was truly unique. Perhaps Frank Langella can voice his character, Master Xehanort, if recordings have not been finished already.
Dang. I don't know why? But for some reason, I really love Xehanort's speeches.
So do I... wait a @#$% do I know you from somewhere? ( e.0)-
Let all that anger out my boy!....give your heart over to darkness.
and now it is your DARKNESS THATS SHALL BE THE ARK THAT SUSTAINS Me!!!!!!!!!!
love Master Xehanort
Xehanort's obsessed with the unknown, and has long desired to see what lies beyond the great darkness.
But when he gave his heart to its shadow and became a Heartless, he forgot there even WAS something beyond that darkness, and for a time his obsession lost its original target. Thus the light of Kingdom Hearts literally blindsided him.
Who knows what else he's lost sight of in his pursuit of darkness?
DenisK21 interesting Theory and well-thought-out
He was but a Pawn now Luxu has special plans for us all be ready.
@@JustShin11 thats the idea
While xehanort Set up everything his heartless and Nobody thanks to Terras i fluence wher able to make ther own Plans anstelle. Still influenced by Xehanort they didnt stop the Plans that would alow Xehanort to continue himself if needed . Xehanort could have taken control at any point but he didntas the end goel was a new World and trough ansem or Xwmnas he could have geten that endgoel
Leonard has the best gravelly voice in existence. It's brilliant.
"Poetic Excuses !" ... Xehanort in the nutshell ...
A shame that Billy Zane couldn't return to reprise his role as Xehanort's Heartless/Terranort for BBS, Re: CoM, KH2, and 3D.
*****
Oh don't get me wrong. I like Richard Epcar and like his work. He makes Xehanort's Heartless sound very sinister and ambitious. But there was just something about Billy Zane that added a sort of grace and civility to his voice. A sort of confidence.
Billy Zane was a BOSS
No argument here.
Spock vs Luke Skywalker
Ansem's Favorite Word is Darkness.
SPOILERS FOR DREAM DROP DISTANCE!!!! I find it ironic how Sora thought Xemnas was pretending to feel sadness, when in reality, Xemnas was acctually trying to pretend he was emotionless.
Yeah..no matter how much they tried to deny having hearts, each member of the Organization harvested feeling in one way or another.
*Axel--Love (Even after being told his friendships were only imaginary over and over again, he never stopped trying to mend the broken ties)
*Saix---Jealousy /Rage ( He swears is allegiance to Xemnas, but still can't seem to stay out of Axel's business. Even goes as far too compare his new relationships with their old one.
Demyx---Fear (self explanatory, lol)
In fact, I think the only one who was even close to not having any feelings was Larxene. If someone told me she was really heartless, I'd believe it. XD
Pandy Monium IDK Larxene seemed to have quite a temper.
patrick watkins Yes, indeed she did.
I'm not sure if this was mention in the game but Did Braig told Sora that he and Xemnas lied to organization XIII about that they do have a heart in dream drop distance?
JLacay
Yes. Right before the Xemnas boss battle in DDD, they explain to Sora that Nobodies start off having no hearts, but can eventually grow them back, due to emotions.
Xehanort and Eraqus are like Madara and Hashirama!
With one voiced by Leonard Nimoy and the other voiced by Mark Hamill
Billy Zane and Paul St.Peter were too awesome for the speeches.
RIP Leonard Nimoy.
RIP Leonard Nimoy.....we lost an amazing person today and KH3 lost its best voice actor.
He will be missed.
To see what lies beyond the great keyblade war.
***** He said that as I was reading your comment. I got goosebumps.
TargetSniper365 hes not dead, He's just forgone his brittle old body and is now taking control of a younger, stronger, new one. And now the darkness inside a young man, SHALL BE THE ARK THAT SUSTAINS HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMMMMM
You can say that again.
The darkest darkness that ever darked.
Darkness?
@Dillon Howington Ah, I see. Thank you for clarifying.
For a Rated E game, you gotta admit, Kingdom Hearts taps into some deep, dark places at times. Probably the only "kids" game I know that really dares to dive into such deep subjects such as "the good and evil in one's heart." And the funny thing is that half of the time, the villian Xehanort asks really good questions. Which came first? Darkness or Light? Good or Evil? Are some people just born evil, or are some people destined to be good? He's one of the only villians I know that makes really good, logical inquiries and statements from time to time. Can a good person be taken over by evil? Can the opposite happen? Can we always trust our hearts? Does the heart ever lie? Are memories kept in the heart or in the head?How important are loved ones? What does it take to push a person to the point of no return? Is Darkness bad if it's used for a good reason? Most video games would never attempt to dive into subjects that complex. This is the probably the only Rated E game that can get away with people being possessed, having hearts stolen, dying in violent ways, or having a manga version of it that allows the characters to swear.
Amen brother.
Would you cause the end of the world to find these answers? Xehenort would.
***** I found it very hard to understand what you're saying past line 2.
It's actually E10+. but who's keeping track? Not to mention that you're thinking too hard on this
I like how philosophical Kingdom Hearts is too, but I feel like they go over board with it to an extent. Symbolism is good, but not when EVERY LITTLE THING IS CONSTANTLY used for symbolism, cause then that can get tiresome...to me at least. I also feel like they give emotion too much credit. I'd rather THINK then allow some emotion to take control over me. Plus I'm not a very emotional person, so I guess in KH I'd be a Nobody
I just want to shine a laser pointer at Ansem and see how he reacts.
Tyson Jones LiGhhTttT
I wonder what would happen if Xehanort, Ansem, or Xemnas were given disney villian songs?
xemnas's would be a sad song about wanting a heart no matter what. Ansem would be a song about covering everything in darkness. and xehanort would have a song about the keyblade war.
I now want a Kingdom Hearts musical.
@@Macder10 There have been talks about Disney animated Kingdom Hearts films. Nomura talked to them about it before. It could happen.
... i don't think they are for singing though...
@@arturoayala1004 Leonard Nimoy use to have a small lived singing career, even had a Star Trek song as Spock. So, ironically, yeah he would be perfect for singing, lol.
"I swore I would survive and be there to see what awaited beyond the Keyblade War.." Leonard didn't get to see it...
The funny part is that Ansem is the only one using the original clothes of Xehanort. xD Xemnas choosed his own style. :D
Xehanort used xemnas (organization) style when e leaves ventus on destiny island at the beginning of BBS, if I remember well ^_^
The clothes? That’s because hes the old assholes heartless doll Aka xehanort reduced to just a heart as officially mention in DDD by young xehanort he is the men’s main essence literally.
xehanort himself was literally a walking heart after he cast aside terra body Aka the robe guy up until the point he highjacked riku at the end of kingdom hearts 1 and made his actual first artificial body resembling what his heart ❤️ is.
Chikao Otsuka passed away at the age of 85 a few weeks back. Leonard Nimoy, at 83 today. Both well renowned actors in their respective countries, one in voice, and the other, live action. Both lent their voices to Master Xehanort...and now they're both gone. The fact that the main antagonist of the next game is currently voiceless aside, one has to wonder if perhaps the role of Master Xehanort, like the play Macbeth, is cursed...I guess we'll never know, seeing how the next game is the last of the MX saga and presumably the last we'll ever see of the cunning tactician. Shame it couldn't have come sooner when the both of them were still walking amongst us.
I do have to wonder who exactly will take up the mantle in both Japanese and English dubs. I would think his Chikao's son (whose name currently escapes me. Apologies) could fill his father's role for one more game. After all, he's been in many of the works that Chikao has been in (He is Ansem SoD. Sure it was a surprise to find out his father would be his more complete predecessor), so I'm sure he's familiar with his father's voice. I'd also think it'd be a good way to pay tribute to his memory, having the son surpass the father, but who knows if that'll be the case. As for Mr. Nimoy, I haven't the slightest. There's probably someone who can impersonate him (just as there was someone who could impersonate Mako long enough to finish up Avatar, just as how Corey Burton is THE Christopher Lee replacement amongst other things in terms of voice acting, and just as how the voice of Mickey didn't end with Wayne Alwine), but I wouldn't know any names. This is all just speculation border lining rambling at this point, but any way you look at it, it's a big loss for the acting world and for Square Enix. Hope they pay their respects to these two fine men and their careers, just as they did with Mr. Alwine (semi-related, on the off chance Scrooge McDuck is coming back to KH for whatever reason and/or DuckTales 2 Remastered is a thing, hope Alan Young's name won't show up next to the word "dies" any time soon...*knocks on wood*).
+Rexaura888 While the voice of Xehanort will not be as powerful, they can find someone who has a similar voice, and let technology handle the rest.. but, there is very few if anyone who can voice Xehanort like those two.. But, no, the role isn't cursed. Just old men with normal issues.. of course I cannot say the roles were not the cause of the stress that led to that but... hahah.
You fucking nailed the fact that Chikao Ohtsuka got replaced by his son for Old Man Norty.
2:07 love how xehanort always try to avoid questions about him.He really makes me curious about his real reason to be so obsessed with kh.Or maybe its really only insane obsession.
I wish they could have gotten Billy Zane to reprise his role in later games.
They didn‘t want to.
@@d4rksonic474 No, it was because of a movie that Zane was in before KH2 came out. Some Turkish movie; it apparently didn't zen well with the Disney execs so they thought they had to wash their hands of him (which was dumb since NONE of us knew about the movie at the time... or until someone told us about it years later).
Zane is still damn good at being an antagonist. Just look up the 2017 KFC commercials he was in.
Peter Campi That‘s what I meant.
I like how mister oh so righteous 'man of light' is the one to cast the first strike and try to lash out and hurt him in anger.
Yo, when Xehanort says "I swore I would survive" like that
It hits real different during Covid bro.
Leonard Nimoy and Mark Hamill in one at odd with each other, the ultimate nerd wet dream.
XEHANORT!!!!!!
I just read that in Mickey's voice
Mike Bottomless Pit Dunham it's okay by me:)
R.I.P. Leonard Nimoy :(
Such a good (voice) actor!
You know what's funny I actually wanted Xehanort to get his hands on the X-Blade in Birth By Sleep and open Kingdom Hearts to see what happens.
In a way, I think Eraqus is worse than Xehanort. He was so blinded by his doggmatic views of light and forgot that for there to be light, there must always be darkness. Xehanort understood this and so in a way, he was right all along. I think Eraqus realized his mistake as he was dying, but it was too late.
Did you forget what Riku said to Xemnas at 9:30 in KH2?He said 'Because of who is lurking inside darkness'Xehnort is just the person Riku is referring to a man who seeks power of dark a bastard who took a young boy and made a evil clone of him(Ventus)Took a young mans body and used it for his evil will(Terra)and forced a young women to take out both of her friends(Aqua)Yes Eraqus was blind and failed to see you need darkness to have light but in no way shape or form was he worse then Xehnort who is not only a obsessed with dark power but used people to build his damn obsession threw out the whole series starting with the three I pointed out moving down to 10 years later AKA Kingdom Hearts 1.Xehnort's heartless Ansem who made Riku his slave and took out Kairi's heart.Skipping Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories.Kingdom Hearts 358/2 days Xehnort's nobody Xemnas who is at fault for Xion risking her life.He is the reason Roxas suffered in that game.He toyed with Roxas by having someone who was never supposed to be there just to make sure Sora sleep forever and to be revealed that Xion was just a fake to make sure Sora never gets his Memoires back which was fucked up.Moving down to a year later Kingdom Hearts 2 again Xemnas who went threw evey world messing everyone lifes up.And now in the same year Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance well everything Xehnort has ever done is known here he even has the balls to bring his bat shit insane teenage self there which was dumb.All and all everything Xehnort did was to build dark power and he has hurt a lot of people by doing so with all his forms and other selfs that have the same goal as he does but doing it in other ways.
Eraqus is dogmatic in a way. I don't see how that makes him worse than Xehanort, who is a liar, manipulator, murderer, an insane person with a twisted mindset that would risk countless lives for the sake of his insane curiosity.
You have a point, Xehanort's a crazy maniac and his actions will probably make things worse. But should curiosity be condemmed? Especially when it could ultimately lead to balance between light and darkness? I do think that someone less mad should be the one to bring balance though.
Of course curiosity is not to be condemned. It is a good thing. Most things are not wrong in themselves, and are actually to be encouraged. But it is also true that almost all things can be turned into obsession, insanity and evil if not reasonably measured. That is the case of Xehanort, i think. Curiosity is a great thing that drives every great mind. Madness is not.
Amen to that.
Xemnas has such a good voice, I just want voice clips from him and listen to it
But Ansem the Wise though
Ah well, just voice clips from that argument they had would do.
I believe out of everybody in the 13 Seekers of Darkness, Young Xehanort would be the last remaining seeker alongside Master Xehanort.
same. i think Saix and the unkown ones will go down first. then it will be xehanort ansem xemnas young xehanort and braig. braig will go down and after that xemnas and ansem.
he wont be joining the 13, he said it himself
Samnold Telfort WHO?!
Nevvon Dennis young xehanort, he said he had to return to his time to grow up to be Old xehanort and that'd hed forget all the events that transpired.
Samnold Telfort Yeah, but the Young Xehanort would grow up to be the Master Xehanort and then another Young Xehanort will appear again and again. I thought Young Xehanort came from a parallel universe, where he didn't become the Master Xehanort we know, but a new member of the Organition! And plus, how come we see only 12 people wearing black cloaks, including Young Xehanort, and he also said to Sora that he is their 13th member, before Lea saved him?
Warriors of the keyblade...
go forth, and bring me more hearts!
No!
Denizens of light, answer this:
Why do you hate the darkness?
Aw, we don't hate it...
It's just kinda... scary...
But the world's made of light AND darkness.
You can't have one without the other, 'cause darkness is half of everything.
Sorta makes you wonder why we are scared of the dark...
It's because who's lurking inside it!
Then allow me another question...
You accept darkness, yet choose to live in the light.
So why is it you loathe us who teeter on the edge of nothing
We who were turned away by both light and dark:
Never given a choice?
That's simple. It's 'cause you mess up our worlds
That may be...
However...
What other choice might we have had?
Just give it a rest.
You're nobodies, you don't even exist!
You're not sad about anything!
Ha. Ha. Ha. Very good, you don't miss a thing.
I cannot feel sorrow...
No matter what misery befalls the worlds...
No matter what you think, what you feel, or how you EXIST.
Hear me, Kingdom Hearts.
I seems we must begin anew.
Ah, but know this:
I will give to you as many hearts as it takes.
Mark my words,
You can no more be complete without me than I without you.
Heed me, Kingdom Hearts.
Lend me your power so that we may be complete!
The power to erase the fools that hinder us.
Xemnas! No!
Hearts quivering with hatred...
Xemnas! Don't!
Hearts burning with rage...
You'll never win!
Hearts scarred by envy...
That fool Ansem the heart's true nature was beyond his understanding.
But it's not beyond mine!
Hearts are the source of ALL power!
So... It seems your hearts have led you to obliteration...
Perhaps it doesn't pay too much to be too loyal to one's heart...
I will have to be sure and remember that...
I need... More rage...
I need... More hearts...
Xemnas... There's more to a heart than just anger and hate, it's full of all kinds of feelings!
Don't you remember?
Unfortunately.... I don't...
Heroes from the realm of light:
I will not allow it to end this way, not yet
If both light and darkness are eternal...
Then surely we nothings must be the same...
Eternal...
You're right, light and darkness are eternal, nothing probably goes on forever too.
But guess what, Xemnas?
That doesn't mean YOU'RE eternal!
Hm hm hm... No more eternal than that radiance of yours...
GO TEAM NOTHING, FORGET LIGHT AND DARKNESS, I'M TAKING THE MIDDLE ROAD
You tryin to win an Oscar?
The Kingdom Hearts drinking game... drink every time someone says 'darkness', 'light' or 'heart'.
Such a suprise ... Xemnas's voice is heavier than Ansem ...
You should have like a "hearts" counter.
Leonard Nemoy was the PERFECT voice for Xehanort.
R.I.P Leonard Nimoy. I can't imagine anyone else with the voice for Master Xehanort.
So... he's totally Palpatine...
I know right?
And people don't see the parallels between Star Wars and Kingdom Hearts... sheesh xD
***** YES! My personal favorite is when Anakin began killing the younglings you seen his eyes turn yellow, he was officially a sith. In kingdom hearts when a heart is stained with darkness the persons eyes become yellow. Hence Xehanort, Braig, Terra, and Riku. (when he starts talking more and more villainous.) Also I don't know if anyone knows this but the emperors true purpose was to use Vader's body to live on then Luke's, since Vader's becomes mostly machine. Tetsuya Nomura had to be influenced by Star Wars.
Wow good point I didn't even catch that. That's also the color of the eyes of all Shadows in the Shin Megami Tensei series of video games. (Persona 4 notably)
michaellux13
I KNOW RIGHT??!?!
There are SO MANY PARALLELS.
Then there's the red lightsabers Xemnas uses.
The constant talk of the dark side and darkness being fuelled by hate rage etc.
And then the final gummi route to Twilight Town in KH2.
It's a fucking rectangle Death-Star with a red super-laser.
And you destroy it by flying INSIDE it and SHOOTING AT ITS CORE.
Seems familiar?
And Riku was seducded by the dark side just like Anakin was.
But later returned to the dark side just like Anakin.
And they both were scarred. ( Riku looking like Ansem at first ).
Seriously it's FULL of parallels.
Yes and the list can go on. Bottomline is even if Tetsuya Nomura never admits it he was heavily influenced by star wars. Also since you brought up the light saber thing he also uses electricity like the other sith do.
"As you watch your friends Aqua and Ventus meet their ends, the last light within you shall die." Speaking from experience??????
This was amazing, thank you.
I find it interesting how all three of his forms all want different goals. Master Xeanhort believes that light and darkness and must coexist. He wants to re-create the keyblade war to stop the "tyranny of light" and restore balance between the two. Ansem, Seeker of Darkness (AKA Xeanhort's Heartless) sought to return everything to darkness. And Xemnas only wanted to become whole.
SirJedi Consular Xemnas didn't want to become whole though. That was just what he told the other members of Organisation XIII to trick them into helping him. What he really wanted was to absorb the power of Kingdom Hearts and to turn the other members into vessels for Xehanort's heart.
No, if you think about it his two forms carry out the same goals but split them between the two. Ansem wanted to return everything to darkness because according to Master Xehanort the world was once covered in darkness due to the Keyblade War and gather the 7 princesses of light. Xemnas goal was to find 13 empty vessels to fill with Xehanort's heart using the artificial Kingdom Hearts he created. Put both together and bam, Keyblade War.
in the end master xehanort is the grand mastermind behind all the villains
He's puppet master of many puppet masters.
I don't hate Xehanort's goal, I just absolutely hate his methods, and if you think about his 'the world is too bright' mindset, you'll see that he's ultimately correct...if only from a certain point of view.
I find it interesting how the villains never, if not rarely, mention Light but throw out the word Darkness like candy at Halloween while the heroes rarely mention Darkness while throwing out Light constantly.
You are a brilliant human being.
All the awards.
I do intend to eventually put out a new video including Dream Drop Distance cutscenes but I sort of want to wait for the whole Xehanort saga to finally end. But for all we know as of now, KH3 won't be out for another one or two years (optimistic thinking) so I might get impatient and just do it.
Xehanort's and Captain Hook's voice actor, Chikao Ohtsuka, died today :c.
October Coyote Yes
October Coyote Captain Hook's Japan voice, yes. The English voice for Xehanort, Leonard Nimoy also died.
Chikao Was Weild, Eggman And Master Xehanor VA in Japan X_X
It’s hard to believe he trained aqua ventus and terra.
Xehenort possessing Tera then spouting the same darkness rhetoric that his heartless says is so cathartic cause you see the madness literally take shape.
A KH-Vids video without 240p resolution? Absolutely bewildering!
It's Luke vs Spock.
"Kingdom hearts... is light!"
"HUAH... GH... l i g h t..."
steelfoot98 “but why?!!”
DARKNESS CONQUERS ALL WORLDS!
With that baddass music as well Ugh! So good
6 people opened their hearts to darkness.
I`m so awesome O.O
(Besides i didn`t remember that there was music)
I love you master xehanort. 💚

All of the Master Xehanort Character are SO cool to me. They are all so cunning, mysterious and powerful. They all have those qualities. Nomura can really do anything he wants with their storyline and it would make sense
I LOVE that Xehanort begins his speech on darkness sprouting within hearts when he possesses Terra!
It's pretty obvious Xehanort is going to kill Yen Sid
That would be very cliche.
I agree that it would be, I believe he will kill either the king or Riku, most likely Riku though
Mike Bottomless Pit Dunham If he was going to kill the king this would happen... *as Xehanort tries to strike the finally blow, Disney throws his contract at him and he would say "God damn it all ( - _ -)."*
Arxoan Nixtram I believe someone that ISN'T from Disney would likely die in the 8th game.
Nevvon Dennis Yeah that could happen, but seeing Mickey die... no.
ALL OF THE HAM
I could listen to Xemnas talk all damn day and never get tired of it
Same with Master Xehanort.
The last speech is so ridiculously awesome, sends chills down my spine.
While I like Richard Epcar, I don't know why they found necessary for Billy Zane to stop voicing Xehanort's Heartless.
ThatGuyfromBrazil I could be wrong in this theory but I think when Square Enix first made Kingdom Hearts way back when they had no idea that it would become such a hit and that they get the funding necessary to Greenlight a sequel game but by the time they got the go-ahead it was too late to rehire Billy Zane or maybe Billy Zane simply just didn't want to do it again I don't know
Leonard Nimoy passed away today. :(
synjeh you made a video!!!! coool!
My plans are nearly complete. The clash of 7 and 13 is nigh.
The more I hear it, the sillier Xehanort sounds to me.
***** Well, I meant the name 'Xehanort', actually. Not much to explain, really.
***** There is other option, an anagram for "Another".
While I actually find his name to be somewhat cool, I have to admit that I can't see or hear his name without thinking, "SNORT."
Myrmidon Radd Sometimes I think Nomura was probably reading too much Harry Potter while he was plotting this series out.
Dumb question is HP older than KH? And well as a hardcore hpfan i dont see similarities. Voldemort was more or less based on Hitler. He wants to eradicate all who have "impure" blood. That and not dying because he fears death are all his motives. Xehanorts idea of balance of light and darkness makes him a far more interesting villain. But well the 13 Xehanorts sure remind of the horcruxes. If thats what you mean
Eraqus looks pretty spry for a guy in his 80s
Rest in peace Leonard Nimoy, you have lived long and prosper... and we all miss you
R.I.P Leonard Nimoy, voice of Master Xehanort. Thank you for contributing to Kingdom Hearts. You will be missed.
Wait, I just realised, the whole Organization 13 name anagram thing (add X) applies to Xehanort aswell. Without the X, you could make the words "No heart" out of his name
Well no offense but really? just now?
JD Cano meh, im a slow learner ;)
This has been known for years.......
you don't say...
also if you didn't know yet:
eraqus: anagram for "square"
yen sid: "disney" backwards
There's more!
"Another X" or maybe "Another Key"?
"No Earth X" or "On Earth X", poking fun at overtaking Terra's heart?
"On Heart X", maybe connected to his research on hearts as Ansem's apprentice?
"A Throne X", the highest one in the Organization, in fact.
Kingdom Hearts: "Xehanort's Chronicles" Wouldn't it be nice? A game about the past of Xehanort and how he becomes: "evil". Bet he had a drunken dad that hit him. But jokes aside, I'm very interesting in Xehanort's early years. There wasn't to much in the 3DS game about Young Xehanort.
Thanks for the info because I was very curious when it was spelled.
I cannot believe the voice of old xehanort pass away. Its So depressing. RIP Leonard nimoy :(
Xemnas is so sad. Ya wonder why the characters wanted to murder him so badly (Roxas and Axel aren't even there so why does everyone else have a bone to pick with him)?
Maybe simply because he's a literally heartless asshole that played with pretty much the lives of all worlds just for the sake of power while feigning to be a victim more than anyone else, not touching the subject about kidnapping Kairi just to make sure Sora would keep destroying Heartless even after he knew he was helping them reaching their goal.
When you really think about it, how Xemnas came to (non) existence is rather sad, but apart from that he's pretty much a cruel monster not the least concerned about the well-being of anybody else, not even his direct subordinates.
Oh, and one more thing, before it's gotten wrong: Xemnas is my favourite character in the whole franchise so long, exactly because he's such a bastard.
He totally is a jerk. But being two different people (Terra and Xehanort) is pretty difficult to deal with. My point though, is that Sora only thought Xemnas was using Kingdom Hearts to gain a heart at the time. Even after feeling bad for Axel, Sora insults Xemnas for not having feelings. Like, What's up with that?
Roman Draco To put it simply, Sora in that moment was facing (what he thought was) the very source of all the hardship he and his friends had to face throughout the game. Knowing that, all the lives that were lost for the sole purpose to feed Kingdom Hearts, and generally the enormous jerkasses the member of the Organization were proven to be, it's quite understandable that he was even just a little frustrated facing their leader. Even if said leader put up a sorrowful façade to sway them, which convinced him Xemnas was feigning anyway, because he's a Nobody and cannot feel sorrow.
Btw, in a sense, Roxas IS there. He's inside Sora, so it's possible he's influencing partially Sora's judgement and emotions on a subconscious level. He suffered very much because of Xemnas too, even if he doesn't remember why.
That's true.
I'm hoping that happens too.
Can you guys just shut up about billy zane, They probably just couldn't get him again. Either that or he didn't want to do another game. Maybe he didn't want to be remembered as Ansem the seeker of darkness.
After the KHUX finale is kind of funny seeing Xehanort want to know the what happened during the Keyblade War.
6 people have fallen to the darkness.
Excellent.
Xehanort, the man with the mind, desire, and the heart to change the worlds.
Every time I hear Eraqus, I expect him to burst out laughing like the Joker. >_>
E: “I will never allow it, Xehanort! Not while I live!”
X: “But once again, you have it all wrong, Eraqus...”
I full expected to say something to the effect of “who said anything about you being alive?” or “I never needed your permission.”
