[NEW] KINGDOM HEARTS TIMELINE - Episode 23: Walls of the Heart

Feel free to enjoy my boss battles in the usual, old fashion.

The new episodes will be added to the playlist as soon as they're uploaded. The old Timeline episodes that do not need to be updated, story or content wise, will be added there as well.

— Explaining the Kingdom Hearts Timeline project —

As many of you already know, the Kingdom Hearts Timeline project started back in April 2018 as a way to prepare all of us for the release of Kingdom Hearts 3. What is the Timeline project? Basically, you'll see all of the story events as they chronologically happen. Which is seemingly easy to do, but...if you're familiar with Kingdom Hearts, then you do know the series is so full of flashbacks, callbacks and retcons, that it's extremely easy to lose track of them.

I always like to think of the Timeline as an experiment. I wasn’t sure if it could be a welcome one but, somehow, it was so well received that it exceeded my expectations.
The original Timeline was just a way to re-live all of the Kingdom Hearts titles leading to KH3, in a different, yet familiar way. I never had plans to go back to it, as I was fully aware of all the flashbacks and callbacks that could be added in the future titles. I don’t really like the idea of uploading new, fixed episodes every now and then—it would just confuse all of you (and, more than anyone, myself!)

Still, the requests and messages I received in the past few years made me reconsider my plans. More than anything, I did plan to complete the KHUX saga, as it was the only incomplete title when KH3 came out.

So here we are! Now that KHUX ended I have everything at my disposal for making the ultimate, complete chronological version of this title.

I can’t stress enough the purpose of this project—this doesn’t want to be the best or the perfect way of experiencing the Kingdom Hearts saga.
All of the titles should be played following their release dates. The Timeline is simply an alternate way of experiencing the story we already know and only players who already played the games should watch it. New players would be spoiled about some plot points, so be warned.
This project gives you a different perspective on specific events, and the adding of new musics, flashbacks, callbacks and secret reports, makes the whole experience even more unique and immersive.

I’ll leave some basic Q&A down here related to the future of the Timeline:

1)
Q: Will you be uploading all of the episodes from the scratch?
A: No. I’ll just reupload the episodes containing flashbacks/callbacks that we got to see after the release of KH3. For instance, the beginning of Birth by Sleep will be reuploaded since I’ll have to add the dialogue between Master Xehanort and Vanitas at the Land of Departure, occurring in Dark Road.

2)
Q: Will the old episodes be deleted?
A: No. All of the episodes will stay, but the new ones will have the text “NEW” in the thumbnail and in the video title. The new episodes will replace the old ones in the Timeline playlist in my channel.

3)
Q: Will you be making KH3 as well?
A: Yes, but my main goal was completing both KHUX and Dark Road. I do have some plans for KH3 but I’m considering of using the PC version of it, so I can disable the music through mods and do some…special stuff. If you are a KH3 modder/you know someone who could help me, please message me on Twitter!

4)
Q: So all of the 123 episodes list will be messed up?
A: No. KHUX will still finish on Episode 11 like I planned years ago. Dark Road will start on Episode 12. Only the beginning of Birth by Sleep might have a small change of numbers in the playlist.

5)
Q: Why did you put Missing-Link in the intro alongside the other titles?
A: Because...never say never. There's no way I can put the whole story of Missing-Link in the Timeline, not in the near future. That game's story might last some years, like it happened with KHUX. However, I did want to include it in the panels titles screen, so we finally have a complete timeline screen, for once.

If you're more curious or you have more questions, please ask!

42:25 This is when luxu knew Xehanort was perfect

[darkhayden]

7:08 and this is why Kairi is a keyblade wielder

[jalenjohnson]

If the theory is right ironically Skuld and Ventus were at Radiant Garden right at the same time which is pretty crazy.

As for Terra I know that Xehanort was old but maybe he should have realize a powerful keyblade wielder like Xehanort should have not gotten caught that easily. But then again Luxu could have easily mopped the floor with them both. I just find it awesome with all the stuff we know we can look at BBS and the other games in a different light. Great video again man

[Powericki]

Love how you connected all the stories at the beginning, great job! now I will watch the entire episode! 🌟🌟💚💚

[saxor]

It's interesting the Lea and Isa part, specially now knowing *why* they wanted to sneak into the castle in the first place. I was sure we were going to see some of Subject X in this episode, but I guess it's more in the future.

[Ty-tczi]

Thank you Everglow for the hard work and dedication ❤

[TheElementsAreWithMe]

Nice touch with the union cross scenes, now hearing this feels as special as it was the first time.

[HenwenBC]

Really nice touch including the credits scenes of Isa and Lea at the end of this episode. Love this series Everglow!

[tedgruver]

We now catch up with our Wayfinder trio as they all arrive at Radiant Garden. While there, each member follows an Unversed. Ventus is blocked from entering the main castle by two guards, Aeleus and Dilan, the human Somebodies of future Organization 13 members Xaldin and Lexaeus. As they attempt to help, they are called back in by a scientist named Even, the Somebody of Vexen, all three men serving as apprentices to Radiant Garden’s ruler, Ansem the Wise. Ventus then saves Scrooge McDuck from the Unversed he was chasing and gets three passes to Disney Town as a thank you present. Later, Aqua arrives at the castle entrance where she, with help from Mickey, protects a young girl named Kairi from the Unversed, with Kairi touching Aqua’s Keyblade during the encounter, unknowingly gaining the power to one day wield a Keyblade herself. After Mickey departs rather suddenly, Aqua taps Kairi’s necklace casting a magical spell on her to keep her safe as she heads home with her Grandmother who tells Kairi the story of the Keyblade War. Soon afterwards, Aqua Ventus and Terra, the last one was tracking down Vanitas for Xehanort, converge at one spot where all the three Unversed each member of the trio followed combined into one like a Power Rangers MegaZord. After defeating the Unity Armor, Ventus gives the other two Disney Town passes to his friends and they go their separate ways again. Terra encounters a man named Braig, one of Ansem the Wise’s apprentices and the Somebody of Xigbar. Terra fights Braig when he finds Master Xehanort held hostage and attacks Braig with Darkness, blasting out his right eye and scaring his left cheek. Ventus then protects a young boy named Ienzo, the Somebody of Zexion and another apprentice of Ansem the Wise. Aqua then fights Vanitas and he retreats. After Aqua departs, Ventus meets two boys named Lea and Isa, the Somebodies of Axel and Saix respectively. Braig then angrily confronts Xehanort about his injuries but backs off when Xehanort points his Keyblade at Braig’s throat.

[CaptainCJ]

Will never get over how much detail you put in this

[mastertucker]

I can't wait to see the Melody of Memory young Kairi and Xehanort flashback bits in proper timeline order right after bbs

[Andrew-wlhn]

I just noticed, but isn't it strange that Luxu's vessels' names are are very similar? Brain...Bragi...Braig... why do i have a feeling that's not a coincidence

[underscore]

You know during my last play through of BBS I stopped during Hollow Bastion aka Radiant Garden to grind with all 3 players . I did a lot of command boarding, and command melding to get certain commands for all 3 characters . Even level grind a little bit . I was able to get the ultimate weapon and shotlock as Terra . But I’m still trying to do that for Ventus . All of that success under level 50 to say the least . Do you know how much grinding I had to do to get to that point during the middle of a Kingdom Hearts play through ? Huh I guess in a way you inspired me Everglow ever since watching your BBS project all those years ago .

[kcfilmstudio]

I always have notifications ready for new episodes! Thank you for these episodes Everglow!

[thelongneckprime]

13:00. This is the Story I'd never forget.

[proudspartan]

Still love that Aqua v Vanitas fight! Great way of showing her mastery with light and the keyblade. Can't wait for how the combat will portray the characters in KH3!

[anthonyanglemyer]

This episode was really great. I swear, I love this series so much!

[windwaker]

Anyone else noticed one of the pillars from Rockbreaker clipping through the floor when Terra was fighting Braig/Luxu

[animegamelover]

Loving all these great changes! Thanks again for all your hard work and dedication!!!
