Hi! Many people are wondering if KH3 is next so I wanted to let you know that I'll have 2 short videos on 0.2 and Backcover before then. I plan to have the first part of KH3 out around a little over a month from now!

" Are we dropping? From a distance? In a dream? " You're not gonna believe it your honor.

“WTF Joshua” is consistent across all media he shows up in

kingdom hearts reached its peak when sora helped jeff bridges fight a floppy disk

Leigh: "Daddy Xehanort!...I mean Xemnas." Me: "No, you were right."

**Dream eaters exist** Leigh: **Sobs on the outside** UX players: **Crying on the inside**

"How many times do we have to teach this lesson old man?" *Kingdom Hearts in a nutshell*

**Cute animal appears** Most people: Aww so cute Leigh: **SOBS** The world is terrible

Mickey getting chokeslammed is definitely the highlight of his whole KH Existence

Just realized, with the end of Union X, Ventus smiling at the end of DDD takes on another meaning.

It’s time for the KH fandom to admit it: Riku is the main character in DDD.

my favorite part about riku diving into sora's heart at the end? the parallel of data sora diving into data riku to get rid of his bugs

Kingdom hearts is meant for people like Leigh. Not to those toxic people who keep complaining about the story. Needs someone a pure of heart to appreciate it i guess. Never seen a KH fan love DDD as much as Leigh does

i don’t even know if you’re going to see this comment. but i just wanted to thank you for these videos. i’ve been a fan of Kingdom Hearts for a little over 15 years now and sometimes i forget the reason why i fell in love with it. watching these has brought me back to being 9 years old and connecting to the pureness and magic of these characters and their growth. it’s incredible to see someone enjoy these games for the first time and allowing me to relive the joy they gave me. so again, thank you.

I love the way she is in love with the dream eaters I can’t wait for her to get union X ending

i am here to support my son stinky

53:33 is such a wonderful cap off to Rikus growth. Back at the start of kh2, Diz asked Riku the same thing and he saw himself as a remnant of Ansems darkness… and now he sees himself as he is. He’s Riku :’)

if she's this emotional on 3d, I'm really looking forward to her finishing both kh3 and union cross. gonna be wild

The amount of joy Leigh gets from these games just warms my heart.

Leigh: "I've only had Stinky for 5 minutes, but if anything were to happen to him I would kill everyone and then myself."

It goes to show the kind of series Kingdom Hearts is when Leigh is going on a big monologue about how much Riku means to her and how good of a character he is, but on the screen it's a picture of Donald and Goofy

When people discover stuff like -You can make cute squishy pets -You can play as Riku and Sora both -You play through Traverse Town again -You meet The World Ends With You characters Their eyes light up. I love DDD. A game about happy animals and two friends going through their trauma together to protect one another.

3D is certainly not perfect by any means. The Disney worlds can be lacking and the flowmotion takes some to get used to. But I love the character development for Riku and Sora so much and it's such an important game for the franchise. I can't help but love it. Thank you for the video

"Are we dropping? From a distance? In a dream?" Well close enough honestly

One of my most underrated parts about 3D is when Ven smiles at the end while Sora is back with the Dream Eaters. After the UX reveal that Dream Eaters are the fallen keyblade users from the war, and Ven being from the past, it tugs on my heart knowing that his heart is currently back with some of his old friends

Leigh: “the dream eaters are so precious and wholesome 🥺👉🏼👈🏼❤️” ……Who’s gonna tell her?

I would love to see you tackle The World Ends With You after you're caught up with KH. Honestly, both the OG game and the new sequel are absolute gems that shouldn't be skipped on.

"For those who don't know, Riku is my favorite." Haha I think most of us could guess

I never had the highest opinion of them, but the genuine joy you had for the dream eaters is infectious. I need to replay this one, damn

“I have no idea what Dream Drop Distance could mean!” Honestly… neither do we

13:07 Leigh: STINKY GET DOWN FROM THERE!! Stinky: Well alrighty then! Wee!

Yess, I loved watching the Symphony of Sorcery parts, that was honestly one of my favorite parts of your KH streams. It was just so nice to see how much you enjoyed it.

The bit where you are talking about the pureness of MeowWow is exactly my feelings about watching your reactions to these games. Every time you release a new one of these brightens up my whole week in this very shitty world. Thank you so much

i was having the worst morning and your video about the soriku game literally got me out of bed. thank you for this gift.

Drop-Me-Not's are your best friend. Always use them when you're in the purple, drop in the world select-

28:45 Leah talkin' 'bout a simple, idyllic time enjoying nature during the Pastoral Symphony, having never seen Fantasia, is just so meta

damn i sure do love when xebabynort uses za warudo, what an icon

i started with this one like a idiot, 3D stole my heart and still hasn't given it back meow wow is the real dearly beloved

Awwww i just understood the ending! That was Vens dream, and he has all the dream eaters as friends now! He not alone anymore ;-;

The spirits in the 3ds version were awesome. You could pet them on the touch screen and the background wasn't a room, it was the 3ds camera and you could take pics. So you could have a meow wow or any of your pets in irl photos it was adorable, I still have my 2ds and Dream Drop Distance even tho I could easily play the ps4 version lol

Your analysis on Riku was freaking amazing. I never thought about it like that. Love the videos too! Can’t wait for KH3

i have now watched this video twice. i really needed the serotonin. thank u

- Probably the second most recent "Nobody game", and one of the most informative. Actually, the nature of the Sleeping Worlds can relate with the Nobodies - remember, the worlds were missing residents (like Jiminy and Mickey), but still dreamed up substitutes. And as Ansem said, dreams hold our memories, and memories were shown in Chain of Memories to be the building blocks of hearts. Likewise, Nobodies managed to fill in the gaps of their hearts with what was missing based on their memories. - Also, hearts regrowing plays into Xehanort's final plan - planting fragments of his heart (his heart will just regrow what was missing) into others so they can incubate copies of his heart. - Regarding The Grid, it carries the original system that Space Paranoids's system (in Hollow Bastion/Radiant Garden) was copied from. So technically, this Tron had never met Sora. - Remember, Minnie tried to forgive Pete for a lot of things by BBS's time - attempted murder and usurping apparently included. - Dearly Beloved plays in every Kingdom Hearts's title menu - the events here just reinforce that it's the very theme of friendship. - Also, is it any coincidence the Dream Eater that the Players were pursuing would flee to Symphony of Sorcery? Considering both TWEWY and Fantasia are both heavily music-based? - Look at how the Dark Figure holds its hand forth. And Riku's response to it. Hrmmmmm... - BTW, Leonard Nimoy died sometime after Dream Drop Distance was completed, so don't be surprised if Xehanort sounds different in KH3. - So lemme try to make KH time travel rules easy to understand: -> When you time travel, you'll be in heart form the whole while. -> You can only continue in the same direction you went at the start of your session (future or past), and only where an iteration of yourself exists (in Xehanort's case, people carrying fragments from his heart). -> The things you can do can't bend fate. (KH3 gives an idea of what happens if you do) -> When your session ends, you'll go right back to where you started, typically with limited memory of your travels. - Yen Sid actually did this at the start to Sora and Riku so they can infiltrate the realm of darkness - and its Sleeping Realm - while Destiny Islands was getting consumed.

You really should play The World Ends With You. It's pretty good.

KHDDD has an amazing but crazy story and the traverse town song rendition is gas.

LeighXP crying over how pure dream eaters are: 🥰😭 UX Enjoyers: 💀💀💀

Sees her getting in really into how adorable the Dream Eaters are and how innocent they all are. Anyone who knows: Nervous sweating

It's always fun to see someone play through the Kingdom Hearts series blind. Your reactions are priceless love it.

I'm so glad I came across your video today : a little less than a year ago, I started writing a story , partly inspired by KH themes. I was already a KH fan for a while. But then, I saw one of your videos. Finding your channel and seeing your interpretations and feelings towards this franchise gave me a lot of answers to why I loved it so much. We don't know each other, but when I see how you react to certain things, relate to some characters like Riku, I can't help but think we had similar lives and experiences. It's been almost a year, and I've published my story through Webtoon CANVAS (the amateur side), words after words, drawings after drawings, chapters after chapters. Your reactions always helped to keep the spark alive. Tomorrow, I'm having an interview with an editor to get my story professionally published. I'm scared, I'm excited, but I'm also grateful. Crossing your path, your emotions, changed my whole story. Thank you

Leigh: "Why can't she just die already?" Maleficent: "Very well. FACE YOUR DOOM!!!!11" I lost it while not looking at the screen because I LEGIT THOUGHT LEIGH WAS REFERRING TO MINNIE AAAAAAAAAAAAAA

If you think about it. It is understandable that Riku became a master compared to Sora. He has grown so much from being a thrall of darkness to understanding and accepting it giving him a mastery over darkness. His whole journey has been him trying to undo the mistakes he made when he succumbed to it originally but the mastery is a nice touch to it basically saying "He's gone through so much and grown and we see how far you've come." Sora in the meanwhile, while doing great things himself and stopping Ansem and the organization, hasn't really grown much. He's still the same boy who left the islands, a bright eyed kid with a bit of naivete. This is a good wake up call to him to show that he still has much to learn if he too wants to become a master like Riku. It was best shown at the start where Sora got a bit offended that he and Riku need to be tested after everything they went through and Riku understood that they still needed to go through it.

Symphony of Sorcery is such a smile fest. I'm glad I'm not the only one who smiled the entire time playing that world.

The intro; funny how Kairi wasn't alongside the Keyblade wielders at the end. Nomura, PLEASE don't let Kairi down...

13:09 *sora being a parent to dream eaters is adorable tho, hes like:* "stinky, dont do it. Noooo, FRICK- STINKYYYY!!" (Runs off the Ferris wheel to grab stinky) *"you are pretty fricking defiant arnt you?"* stinky: (defiant puppy squeaks) *meanwhile Riku with his dream eaters is like:* "ducky you can do it fly up!" Ducky: (flys up) "good job ducky!" "I love you so much." *Then them swapping pets be like:* "are you giving sora trouble stinky?" Stinky: (Puppy squeaks) "i can tell you are lying to me. Stop giving him such a hard time." Stinky: (squeaks of sadness) "attention or not you are worring him too much stinky. You are gonna give him a heart attack!" (More Squeaks of sadness) "im not the one you are supposed to be apologizing to. Apologize to your father." "So are you treating him good ducky?" (Squeaks of joy) "oh good, and hes treating you good too?" (Squeaks) "good. Is he doing well?" (Squeaks) "ok cool. Hey, Since i cannot join him too often, can you protect him for me?" (Squeaks of yessir) "good." Stinkys apology to sora: 18:17 Thank you for reading my nonsense lol❤

Now that we know about Ventus' past and the identity of the dreameaters, Ventus smiling when the dreameaters find peace thanks to Sora is even more heartwrenching.

Her laughing about going to shibuya japan made me smirk ngl

DDD is my fave KH game to see people go through. the worlds, the colors, the music, the dream eaters, the riku character arc. it's all so good

It makes me laugh so much every time a kingdom hearts reaction comes out, it seems that your favorite word for this saga is pain 🤣

Yesssss! This is really where the story takes a turn into some insane stuff, that I feel either turns people off or completely hooks them for life lol. I can't wait to see your reaction to KH3 now! But I suppose we still got 0.8 and Union X story to get through lol

"They are like... pure light" Totally melted with that. Love so much this game's openning.

You have skyrocketed into one of my top 5 content creators of this decade. Came for the 7Remake reactions, stayed for the personality

The pure joy you have while playing these games is such a joy to watch. Your rolling with the trademark KH weirdness and insight into the characters is refreshing, because people who love these games really love them. This franchise is special to me and I really enjoy seeing other people fall in love with it too. I'm so glad I stumbled across your series and hopefully I can get to some of your backlog soon.

Been absolutely loving watching your experience with KH. Makes me wish I could play through the series for the first time again! Stinky will forever be my favorite KH character

It brings me so much joy to see people experiencing these games for the first time and being so in love with them. Next to KH2 this is one of my favourites as I love Sora and Riku so much, I'm glad you had such a good time with it! These games are so special to me, they're such a great experience

Leigh! I absolutely love watching your reactions to these games. This one is definitely one of my top favorite KH games, it’s such a gem. 🥰💚 Wishing you well and can’t wait to see more of your adventures! 💕

Yes! Thanks for all your hard work. You edit down these huge games into just the essentials yet still manage to capture it all. I'm so glad, it feels like I get to experience the games for the first time all over again!

Just wanted to say that every time you drop a new video in this series, my day is instantly better! It's wild being able to see these games through fresh eyes again, and it's amazing. Thanks so much for all of this!!!

I literally checked the channel an hour ago to see if a new vid was up, I've been so excited for this game in particular to see how you try to wrap your brain around whatever this game is.

Your reactions are SO genuine and cute, oh my gosh! I adore that you listen to the music, take in the scenes and genuinely love the characters. I am so excited to watch your journey!

Started a replay of this franchise last month and watching your videos after playing through each game has been wonderful. Had to watch a few in bulk after discovering your channel, but watching right after playing through one is the best. great reactions.

I love these KH videos! It’s almost like a window back to the first time I played through them. Very special memories 💖

Omg I’ve never watched or heard someone vocalize the exact reasons why I love Riku’s character the ways you did in this video! It’s so awesome to see your reactions to these games, they’re my everything xD

I totally didn't marathon all of your KH journeys in 1 day, nope, no way, nuh-uh... Great stuff, what a trip, what a journey. Looking forward to the next installments!

Your videos are so pure💕 You’re just what I need right now😁 Your blind reactions are priceless

Loved watching your journey through these games! I watched the other videos you uploaded and went to your Twitch to watch the vods for this game and the others you hadn't edited for KZfaq and I'm currently watching you kick ass in Re:mind. Pro gamer indeed. Honestly it's nice to see other people who enjoy not only the gameplay but a deep connection to story and characters, because they're so special. Thank you for videos Leigh and I hope to catch some streams in the future

Ur reactions to the dream eaters has made this my fav video of yours thank you

I really loved your reactions to this game. I loved it too when it came out, especially that intro. It's definetely one of the best. Keep it up with the great content. Greetings from Mexico.

I was just looking for something to watch after 3 hours of work. Girl you SAVED me your reactions are my oxygen

Hardcore KH nostalgia players: “Jeeze, who is this Pokémon rip off even for?” Leigh: “I will name him stinky”

Hey! I found your channel today since it suggested your KH saga videos (and KH is my favorite franchise of all time, so why not?) I've watched every. single. video. Thank you so much for them! I cried and laughed with you even though I've played KH over and over for the past 20 years of my life. Loved these moments. :D

She's getting emotional about the dreameaters now, I cabt wait to see her reaction to what they really are

> Says he's omniscient > Grows wings > Flies away and refuses to elaborate chad behavior

I really need her to experience the emotional roller coaster that is The World Ends With You

This game is such an experience. Thanks for sharing yours!

It will never get old watching nostalgia move leah to tears... Super wholesome content. Keep it up

your reactions to everything were just so pure and and wholesome. ddd wasnt my absolute favorite but watching your reactions reminded me how good some parts of the game were. stinky and smelly deserve all the pets and dream candy!

I've been waiting for this video! I'm so happy to see people get into this series.

I wish I could be half as genuinely enthusiastic and invested in things as Leigh... it's so pure~

I just watch all your kingdom hearts journey in a row and its amazing how I love it !

You're pure and light! I love these videos. I love your reactions and commentaries. Thank You for this. Really

I love your series. Been waiting for this. Dream Drop Distance is one of my favorites.

20:48 is my reaction everytime I see the Organization is back. (The reactions were priceless, so funny) 😂

Riku doing Riku pose? Tetsuya Nomura you god damn genius, I love your reaction to every little details lol

I'm a recent newcomer to your channel, but I just wanted to say I've never seen anyone who is as immersed in the KH story and worlds as you! Not many people can just stop and take in the atmosphere, especially when there's a timer ticking. I think you also encapsulate our feelings towards KH perfectly, like it's definitely not perfect and there are some wacky parts for sure, and yet it always manages to land on it's feet and hit us in the feels in the end (I would recommend playing the DLCs for KH3 though...) I can't wait to see your reactions to the rest of the series, stay well :)

I recommend see the everglow's episodes explaining EVERYTHING through out the series in order of time

I love this franchise and story. I live your playthroughs. And you are absolutely beautiful which just makes it that much more fun to watch

Dream Drop Distance have the best KH Intro for much! And this Dearly Beloved version it’s so nice too!

the game that gave me inspiration for this name. also been loving your playthroughs!

LEIGH! So happy to see your KH videos again. Keep up the great work ❤️ you're doing great

It makes me really happy to see this one. DDD is one of my favorites in the series and it might be due to the dream eaters being their version of Pokémon and they are customizable
