aqua has suffered more only because of 2.8. apparently, nomura *was* going to have her break down (mentally) after rescuing riku. as for ventus..... it depends on how union x turns out. and terra..... no. fuck no..
I love his reaction to Sora saying he should be his own person. Right when he had finally accepted he could never be his own person Sora drops that on him and he's just........shocked.
And THIS right here is why Sora is probably my favorite character. He's not perfect, he's not the strongest, he's not even that smart, but he cares about people so much. He does what he does simply because he wants other people to be happy, and I find that down right inspiring.
@@pinkmochamilk I myself care about people no matter what even if i sacrifice my own happiness just to see smiles cause we all deserve to live and ENJOY life not from discrimination or superiority you know? We can't come together if people don't change and lend a hand
Jesse McCartney is fan-fucking-tastic he gets across beautifully a character that is no less than the universe's punching bag that only ever wanted answers to his existence and his own being but can never get it. I hope he gets it in 3
When you get Ars Arcanum after this scene and realize Roxas finally did what DiZ asked him to do. “You should share some of that hatred with Sora. He’s far too nice for his own good.”
The funny thing is I think Sora is the nicest he is in this game like Sora has gotten mad in every game at least once but I swear he is never mad in this game and here is the closest thing to him being mad
"You deserve as much as I do to be your own person." "That's why it has to be you." I think why I like this line in particular is that Roxas is explaining why he isn't the hero. When Roxas heard that he could sacrifice himself to save another he fought against it while Sora won't hesitate for an instant to save a life. Roxas looks up to Sora so much. Sora is literally the version of himself who can make the decisions Roxas wishes he could.
I mean Roxas’ life was never about saving someone. He was told he is a Nobody and his job is to collect Hearts so all Nobodies could be whole. Unlike Sora who is told he is the Keyblade wielder who would save the world, Roxas never had that responsibility. That’s why Roxas’ purposes is to be his own person and just be happy with friends. They have no family nor friends to go to, but they do have a place they’d like to be. So I like his purposes in life which is just so pure.
Kjm6351 dream drop distance was my first game to but I had to look up videos about the story and character then when I finally understood everything it hit me in my heart
Out of every character in this franchise Roxas’s story is the most heartbreaking and to see the shock on his face when Sora says he is his own person just breaks my heart.
jessica deChamplain Roxas deserves so much better than what his heartbreaking story gives him. But it's one of the best written character development stories I've ever seen
@@Bleezyyyys Terra and Aqua were never too far away despite the circumstances. Same with Mickey Donald, Goofy, and Yen Sid. Heck even Sora when he saved him established a connection that was always there no matter what. Everything got taken from Roxas and he was told that he has no right to exist. That he was a "mere tool at best" who had to return to "where he belongs". No beach, no sunsets at the tower, no fulfillment of his true potential, no friends. Ventus always had lights waiting to help him. The only light Roxas had and lucky him was Sora. Most people would have moved on after being whole again but Sora knew that Roxas was more than a copy of himself.
(sigh) isn't it great when the one character you favor most also happens to be the one that suffers the most and gets no justice? 10 years later and I still shed for Roxas
Notice that when Roxas appears at the beginning of the scene, Sora is wearing his signature KH2 outfit. However, after Roxas disappears, Sora is back to the X-marked outfit he wore throughout the game. I think that's Roxas trying to lend Sora a hand with his situation.
I think Sora is going to start caring for Roxas as his own brother. Think about it. Both of them had a deep desire to meet the other before they found out who they were. And now, especially after witnessing all of Roxas' memories, Sora is desperate to save him. I think in KH III Sora and Roxas are gonna become really good friends. And when you consider their literal relationship,like Brothers even.
I mean, getting Roxas was the objective for the first chunk of the game and that one scene in SanFranTokyo shows how Roxas has been an important connection to Sora, and Re:Mind when they are in each other's thoughts being how Roxas got to the Keyblade graveyard. They may have not been able to act like friends, but the bond was there, Sora was just trying to help friends out/ save Kairi and weren't given time to talk.
*"Sora, see? That's why it has to be you."* I believe that at this moment, Roxas' respect for Sora grew immensely. Had the roles been reversed, Roxas would not have told Sora that as he was too focused on himself (and understandably so).
Definitely. Roxas would have said something like, “I’m sorry, but I’ll need your body for a little longer. There’s still things I need to do. People I need to protect.” He wouldn’t have given up his life after what he went through, (and who could blame him?) but Sora offered it without question.
Roxas had contempt for Sora at first because his existence revolved around him and felt Sora was taking everything away from him when it was really DiZ, and the Organization who played all the games with Roxas. Once he finally met Sora, Roxas realized that Sora is nothing like that and wasn't responsible for everything that happened to him and losing his existence. If anything Sora was just as if not more confused about the whole thing but still only saw Roxas as a person who has a right to life, strength and happines. This connection saw them through the events of KH3 and Roxas returning to the realm of light where he belongs.
I hope they have some sort of "oh ur memories makes you you, not ur heart" thing to save roxas. Andd idrk the shit going on with ventus tbh but i hope him and his friends like go off to heaven or the past again together
1:05 that look he gives, I love how touched he is by how selfless Sora is while Roxas himself, showed a bit of jealousy earlier by saying how it could have been the other way around. Really, these two could be great brothers.
Absolutely love Roxas, easily my favorite character of the series. Such a tragic but memorable character. He inspires me to always never lose sight of who I really am, no matter how confused or lost I may become.
Sora is right, Roxas deserves to be a person of his own than to be Sora's nobody, because although he is a nobody, he shows to have feelings like any real person, for me that he has returned in kingdom hearts 3 now as a person with a life of his own, he has me given tremendous joy for him.
Hi Bob thanks for the error in a couple weeks ago I was going through my 5uuhrgffgttbdwbcvva is the best 333 years old and the tires are worn but 4 10th
This scene is incredibly brilliant in two ways. One of lays out the two definitions of self that Kingdom Hearts has explored. Both are true, “You’re me, so you can feel what I felt.” “No, Roxas you’re you… you deserve as much as I do to be your own person.” And then the fact that ROXAS is the one making the case for the collective sense of self, Mr. “I am me, nobody else.” And SORA is the one arguing that Roxas is a separate self. It’s a fantastic summary of Kingdom Hearts exploration of Self.
I still look back at this and I am always a bit concerned and creeped with how Roxas was able to just smile while he was dumping all of his pain he felt into Sora. I mean hey "It's way past time that you learned what real hurt feels like."
*Spoilers* The symbology of what Roxas said, after playing KH3, is even more painful. Roxas, though technically speaking is the other half of Sora, as Vanitas is Ventus' actual other half. Sora's frustration of not getting through to Vanitas is something that he, almost feels responsible for given that he can talk to Roxas. But Roxas isn't his dark half, just his half. So, maybe in some crazy way, yes, this could have been the other way around. But due to Sora's inherent, and often blinding good, it really does have to be Sora.
This is the main reason why I always love Roxas, he is so complicated and yet.... Loveably character person. I watched the full gameplay of every KH seasons since last year, I will never forget it from the bottom of my heart
😢😢💔💔 THEME MUSIC IS NOT HELPING RIGHT NOW "There are so many hearts that are connected to yours. You're me, so you can feel what I felt" "No. Roxas, you're you. We're not the same. I wanted to tell you that, that you deserve as much as I do to be your own person"
I think what gets me the most about this scene is how utterly broken Sora becomes once Roxas' memories become his own. He shudders, twitches his eyes, sighs brokenly as if he's about to cry. This is a new perspective he wasn't able to see in 2, and he understandably does not know how to react. And when he does react, he's still confused: "WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO SEE???"
Roxas at this point had accepted his fate. As one half of the person that would save the worlds. Beliving that his sole existence was just to destroy this world, and here comes Sora sweet innocent Sora. Sora the boy who gladly took the pain of a boy several hundred years old. Who saw his friends disapear infront of him and decided to help without question. essentially told him no your existence matters
"This could have been the other way around." His expression... The pain in his voice... For some reason this story arc about the "Sea Salt" trio always gets to me.
Coming back here and reading all these comments of Roxas fans (I hope/assume) like me before 3 came out is really something. Will always be my fav KH character.
Roxas is hands down my favorite character of the entire Kingdom Hearts franchise. I really hope they find a way to separate Roxas from Sora at some point so he really can be his own person. My poor baby deserves it damn it!
There's a good dark fanfic called "Twilight Will" in which he refuses to return to Sora. Sora is my favorite character... But I was very proud of Roxas for fighting to claim a future of his own design. Because that is how you know you're a living being. Any less, and you just happen to be a toy that breathes. And besides, a battle hardened soldier ? Forget emo Riku (yes, I'm aware I should have more empathy for him given what he went through), this is the dark badass opposite of the optimistic protagonist I wanna see.
@@JabamiLain I personally thought every entry I have seen in the KH series has been fire 🔥 with the storytelling aspect & yes that’s 3 included. No issues or faults in my eyes because that game is super complex to understand for most but that’s just my opinion.
@@reckszkingzactivitiesrkat.4134I'd like to share something quickly in order to summarize how I express my love towards this series: -If Xion truly was aware Roxas was next on the list, then I'm sorry. I fear in my fic, there is truly only one way to keep the Nobody teens fully free. Magic doesn't justify half of what happened during that year. Not Riku. Not DiZ. Not Xemnas. They are deluded children. I must free them. Sora already went ahead, going to Quadratum alone. But there's nothing wrong in exploring alternative timelines in which salvation comes earlier.
KH4 sora will be in the real world and has personality disorder and multiple personalitys that are all his friends. Actually not but thats what the whole heart thing feels like, im excited for the new game and hope everyone is aswell.
1:05 Roxas just straight up admitted that he'd have won the fight for survival and not thought twoce about Sora's own personhood. He's still my favorite character though.
The notes in Days reveal to us Kingdom Hearts was more than willing to power Roxas. All he had to do was ask. If Roxas had held on just a little longer inside Sora, if he had bidden his time 'til he could take control of him...He might have obtained it.
dont cry cmon dont cry i aint gonna cry dammit dont fricken cry must not cry must not cry MUST NOT FRICKING CRY IM NOT CRYING I SWEAR WHO TF CUTTING THESE ONIONS EVERYWHERE THAT WASNT A TEAR I SWEAR

"You say that you're an illusion but you ceartainly pack a really big punch. You said that you'd show me hurt and you weren't wrong. Actually, the hurt I just felt was more than that. Sure it might have hurt while we were fighting, but I sensed a different kind of hurt from you. It was kind of like, an intense sharp pain. But it felt sort of familiar. Almost like it was my own. As if we'd been connected. Like right then we shared the same hurt. If somehow it brings me closer to people in that kind of way, then carrying around a little hurt can't be all that bad."
"This could've been the other way around" I honestly wish it had been. Nix the cutesy disney crap, put donald and goofy on the bench and get shit done. There is no playtime with roxas.
J Hare The series wouldn't be Kingdom Hearts without the "cutesy Disney crap." That's how it's been since the beginning. If all you want is androgynous edgelords being mopey and carrying ridiculous weapons, go play Final Fantasy.
OniLordMiki- I would, but they've stopped doing that as well. Noct was supposed to be darker. Xehanort- The series is getting darker, I don't want to pet a moeblob to get my abilities or play in toon town when I know someone is currently suffering beyond measure.
It's important to not forget that life isn't all about being serious, the bounds and connections Sora made with other people are what makes him strong, and it's becauese of that that he made it as far as he did... I personally like Sora alot more then Roxas, Sora has a child like tenderness that a game like Kingdom Hearts really needs, Roxas just feels like a generic Shonen protagonist... If you want a better description of why I like Sora, another youtuber made a video that explains everything better than I can put into words. Here ya go:czcams.com/video/45Z_Of2uRjU/video.html
The muffled dialogue from Riku at the end of the scene trying to wake Sora up sends chills down my spine every time (the subtitles do kill the mood a bit on that, though.) Honestly KH3D TWTNW has some of the best cutscenes in the series. The writing and voice acting in this world was fantastic. It’s just a shame the rest of the game wasn’t written this well.
To be honest from the moment he appeared in Kingdom Hearts 2 I knew that was Jesse McCartney all along because he even looks like him a bit plus the voice wasn't so obvious
Elii Gilbert Yea, it is obvious. But Jesse McCartney does such a fantastic job with Roxas's voice, the emotion he puts into it. It's amazing. Truly a role made for him
I got dream drop distance for the 3ds when it first came out, and it was the 3rd kingdom hearts game I played, the first and second being kh1 and kh2, and the only things I remembered from those games was the race with Riku from kh1 and the Tron world from kh2. So I had no idea what was going on through this whole game
"Sora see? Thats why it *has* to be you." Yknow Sora always bugged me as a Protagonist. He isnt really smart, cool and he can be really childish. However his simple nature of wanting everyone to be happy is what i think makes him a good protagonist. It may be childish, ridiculous or even hypocritical how he thinks, but thats fine.
Roxas has had to suffer more ten any other KH characters.
have you even played birth by sleep
Litterally all the BBS characters have suffered more than Roxas
i think both roxas and ven
yes both roxas and ven xD having ven's face makes you suffer the most?
aqua has suffered more only because of 2.8. apparently, nomura *was* going to have her break down (mentally) after rescuing riku. as for ventus..... it depends on how union x turns out. and terra..... no. fuck no..
That moment when Sora says what all Roxas's fans wish they could tell him.
I’m not going to lie when Sora says “That you deserve as much as I do to be your own person” just give me a tear.
EurynomeEclipse13th well it's true
Me too
*gave
I get his sentiment, but Roxas is basically a clone so where would he go honestly. Sora is around so what would Roxas live?
See that’s why it has to be Sora
I love his reaction to Sora saying he should be his own person. Right when he had finally accepted he could never be his own person Sora drops that on him and he's just........shocked.
Śãīłør Šâïx he kinda can’t
megazion34 Yes he can. They plan to bring him out in KH3.
He's like 1:04 BOY YOU BETTER BACK THE FUCK UP-
He had to keep his composure and not knock the fuck out of him.
Everybody saying Roxas can't be his own person.... Watch your mind be blown in KH3; you don't write Kingdom Hearts, Square Enix does.
And THIS right here is why Sora is probably my favorite character. He's not perfect, he's not the strongest, he's not even that smart, but he cares about people so much. He does what he does simply because he wants other people to be happy, and I find that down right inspiring.
And his strength of the heart 💞
Why can't people IRL be like him? :(

This is even more true in Remind. And for once he had to do some effort to think about his next step. And he was alone to save the day.
Jesse McCartney is fan-fucking-tastic he gets across beautifully a character that is no less than the universe's punching bag that only ever wanted answers to his existence and his own being but can never get it. I hope he gets it in 3
MrX626 Agreed. McCartney just fits Roxas. You especially see it in Days. I expect no less of the same thing in 3
you do know that he was replaced with the voice of ventus?
is Zack or Cody?
You got your wish and guess what? He is his own person now
Ja'far, Chief of Sindria Trading Company Hooray!

The amount of sadness, anger and despair in Roxas's memories traumatized Sora so much that he was struggling to control them

He does have PTSD and chronic depression. He deserves better.
Just needs a little curaga to fix himself
Seeing Roxas just slightly smile at Sora while he experiences all of that grief is...

Roxas best boi 😢❤️ And Sora is auch a cinnamon roll
Aww see Sora really does feel legitimately sorry that Roxas could never be his own self.
I think what gets me the most about this scene is how utterly broken Sora becomes once Roxas' memories become his own. He shudders, twitches his eyes, sighs brokenly as if he's about to cry. This is a new perspective he wasn't able to see in 2, and he understandably does not know how to react. And when he does react, he's still confused: "WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO SEE???"
This is my favorite kingdom hearts moment. Makes me tear up every time
Roxas is a very interesting and mysterious character
Roxas at this point had accepted his fate. As one half of the person that would save the worlds. Beliving that his sole existence was just to destroy this world, and here comes Sora sweet innocent Sora. Sora the boy who gladly took the pain of a boy several hundred years old. Who saw his friends disapear infront of him and decided to help without question.
essentially told him no your existence matters
" 'You're you,' you says "
"This could have been the other way around." His expression... The pain in his voice... For some reason this story arc about the "Sea Salt" trio always gets to me.
This is so sad, poor baby Roxas, and when Sora says “do they caused all this pain?” I started crying!!!
Coming back here and reading all these comments of Roxas fans (I hope/assume) like me before 3 came out is really something. Will always be my fav KH character.
When I came across this part for the 1st time I wanted to play as him (Roxas) 358/2 days was so good 😔♥️
MY BOY IS BACK BABY!
"You should share some of that hate with Sora he's far too nice for his own good"
"DiZ"
This cutscene made me incredibly emotional.
This scene right here , is a good summary of why he had to be in smash
When sora says you deserve to be your own person i kind of got sad because out of every kh character roxas suffers the worst pain
Roxas is hands down my favorite character of the entire Kingdom Hearts franchise.
I really hope they find a way to separate Roxas from Sora at some point so he really can be his own person. My poor baby deserves it damn it!
Confirmed.
I was so happy to see Roxas again Dream Drop Distant!
*And this is just another reason why Roxas continues to be my fav kh character.*
The name of this cutscene is misleading, because, as we all know, Roxas is forced into a constant state of grief, no matter the time.
Roxas: Here's my memories.
Sora: So much ice cream! BRAIN FREEZE!
There's a good dark fanfic called "Twilight Will" in which he refuses to return to Sora. Sora is my favorite character... But I was very proud of Roxas for fighting to claim a future of his own design. Because that is how you know you're a living being. Any less, and you just happen to be a toy that breathes.
And besides, a battle hardened soldier ? Forget emo Riku (yes, I'm aware I should have more empathy for him given what he went through), this is the dark badass opposite of the optimistic protagonist I wanna see.
Am i the only one that fucking cried in that Scene?
Roxas has one of the best stories in the whole series
Man Sora is one heck of a Protaginist
I love this scene. Such a great representation of what makes both Roxas and Sora great.
I think I heard riku's voice
The kingdom hearts series has some of the best story telling I have ever seen in a game seriously 🔥
It really does. But Nomura still sucks in a few areas. 3 proves it so.
@@JabamiLain
I personally thought every entry I have seen in the KH series has been fire 🔥 with the storytelling aspect & yes that’s 3 included.
No issues or faults in my eyes because that game is super complex to understand for most but that’s just my opinion.
@@reckszkingzactivitiesrkat.4134let's agree to disagree to avoid an argument.
@@reckszkingzactivitiesrkat.4134I'd like to share something quickly in order to summarize how I express my love towards this series:
-If Xion truly was aware Roxas was next on the list, then I'm sorry. I fear in my fic, there is truly only one way to keep the Nobody teens fully free.
Magic doesn't justify half of what happened during that year. Not Riku. Not DiZ. Not Xemnas. They are deluded children. I must free them.
Sora already went ahead, going to Quadratum alone. But there's nothing wrong in exploring alternative timelines in which salvation comes earlier.
KH4 sora will be in the real world and has personality disorder and multiple personalitys that are all his friends. Actually not but thats what the whole heart thing feels like, im excited for the new game and hope everyone is aswell.
These two need to hug, like seriously.
1:05
Roxas just straight up admitted that he'd have won the fight for survival and not thought twoce about Sora's own personhood.
He's still my favorite character though.
His sullen expression for a moment says so much.
Can you blame him ?
I'm not crying! You're crying!
The notes in Days reveal to us Kingdom Hearts was more than willing to power Roxas. All he had to do was ask.
If Roxas had held on just a little longer inside Sora, if he had bidden his time 'til he could take control of him...He might have obtained it.
dont cry
cmon dont cry
i aint gonna cry
dammit dont fricken cry
must not cry must not cry
MUST NOT FRICKING CRY
IM NOT CRYING I SWEAR
WHO TF CUTTING THESE ONIONS EVERYWHERE
THAT WASNT A TEAR I SWEAR
MEMORY OVERLOAD
Sora see? That is why it HAS to be YOU...
So Roxas is Sora's nobody

How Arc-V should have ended
TrueAstralKnight for real!!!! I never thought of that
This comment needs more love.
hahaha lol
TrueAstralKnight I feel the same way
LMAO
Damn I got a lump in my throat watching this, way too many feelings watching this. XD
Some part of me want Roxas be the MC this time ..
There's a good dark fanfic called "Twilight Will" in which he refuses to return to Sora. Sora is my favorite character...

"You say that you're an illusion but you ceartainly pack a really big punch. You said that you'd show me hurt and you weren't wrong. Actually, the hurt I just felt was more than that. Sure it might have hurt while we were fighting, but I sensed a different kind of hurt from you. It was kind of like, an intense sharp pain. But it felt sort of familiar. Almost like it was my own. As if we'd been connected. Like right then we shared the same hurt. If somehow it brings me closer to people in that kind of way, then carrying around a little hurt can't be all that bad."
"The hurt was in fact, that bad."
the whole series, i only cried here.
1:28 Sora: This is so sad I can’t comprehend any of this and my brain is shutting down on me
There are so many hearts connected to yours
Ventus: *walks out* "Hey guys, what's going o---"
"oh I'll uh, give you two a moment"
Xion :*walks out* "Hey guy's we're out of milk- oh...I'll come back later
“Am I dreaming?” The irony
Roxas' voice actor is great
Jesse McCartney, who also voices Movie!Theodore Seville and YJ!Dick Grayson
"This could've been the other way around"
I honestly wish it had been. Nix the cutesy disney crap, put donald and goofy on the bench and get shit done. There is no playtime with roxas.
J Hare The series wouldn't be Kingdom Hearts without the "cutesy Disney crap." That's how it's been since the beginning. If all you want is androgynous edgelords being mopey and carrying ridiculous weapons, go play Final Fantasy.
That's pretty edgy, J Hare.
OniLordMiki- I would, but they've stopped doing that as well. Noct was supposed to be darker.
Xehanort- The series is getting darker, I don't want to pet a moeblob to get my abilities or play in toon town when I know someone is currently suffering beyond measure.
J Hare >implying Disney can't be dark.
It's important to not forget that life isn't all about being serious, the bounds and connections Sora made with other people are what makes him strong, and it's becauese of that that he made it as far as he did...
I personally like Sora alot more then Roxas, Sora has a child like tenderness that a game like Kingdom Hearts really needs, Roxas just feels like a generic Shonen protagonist...
If you want a better description of why I like Sora, another youtuber made a video that explains everything better than I can put into words.
Here ya go:czcams.com/video/45Z_Of2uRjU/video.html
The muffled dialogue from Riku at the end of the scene trying to wake Sora up sends chills down my spine every time (the subtitles do kill the mood a bit on that, though.)
Honestly KH3D TWTNW has some of the best cutscenes in the series. The writing and voice acting in this world was fantastic. It’s just a shame the rest of the game wasn’t written this well.
To be honest from the moment he appeared in Kingdom Hearts 2 I knew that was Jesse McCartney all along because he even looks like him a bit plus the voice wasn't so obvious
Elii Gilbert Yea, it is obvious. But Jesse McCartney does such a fantastic job with Roxas's voice, the emotion he puts into it. It's amazing. Truly a role made for him
@@estinien212 How about Jesse as Ven?
I got dream drop distance for the 3ds when it first came out, and it was the 3rd kingdom hearts game I played, the first and second being kh1 and kh2, and the only things I remembered from those games was the race with Riku from kh1 and the Tron world from kh2. So I had no idea what was going on through this whole game
Now we just need a scene like this, but with Xion, so I can get some closure.
Man Roxas is the greatest KH character made.
"Am I dreaming"
Yes. Yes you are Sora.
"Sora see? Thats why it *has* to be you."
Yknow Sora always bugged me as a Protagonist. He isnt really smart, cool and he can be really childish. However his simple nature of wanting everyone to be happy is what i think makes him a good protagonist. It may be childish, ridiculous or even hypocritical how he thinks, but thats fine.
