The Lion Guard: Rescue in the Outlands
So kinda finishing the new Lion Guard episode reviews for a while is the last one on the most recent list I made for it. And, like I said in that entry, this was my most anticipated episode out of that whole list. And, yeah, another really enjoyable episode, but, not perfect. Still pretty good though. And, like the other episodes I've reviewed, this will have spoilers, so if you want to see it and don't want anything spoiled, go see it then read this. What's the story? The Guard try to keep some flies away from some animals with them being a real bother lately. But that's not all, Janja, Cheezi and Chungu are wandering through the Outlands until Jasiri shows up claiming that they're on her turf. She fights them off and they run off and tell Scar who gets the idea to kill her. So when Jasiri, those two hyena cubs and Madoa are playing, they ambush them and force Jasiri and the cubs into a lava vent. Madoa goes to get the Guard and they head there to save them. They fight off the hyenas who're trying to keep them from getting to them and they get her out. And that's really it. Kinda basic, but I think the delivery of the episode itself is what makes it for me. For one thing, obviously, for me, what makes this good is actually seeing Jasiri back again. I really like Jasiri and it's always awesome to see her show up in the new episodes. And, not only her, but also her family like Madoa and those two cubs. And there were some funny moments too like there's a scene where that zebra guy things he's the best at direction and Fuli just laughs at it. That was pretty funny. Although, that whole zebra thing is the problem I have with the episode. I never really liked that zebra in the show before, but thankfully he was never in the show that much. Here though, they give him way too much screen time and he's really annoying. Other than that though, the episode is still pretty good. The opening's cool, like the previously mentioned fight between Jasiri, Janja, Cheezi and Chungu. I will admit I was kinda disappointed we didn't get to see the Outsiders considering it looks like Scar is trying to get everyone in the Outlands on his side, but, I guess we'll just have to wait some other time for that. The song is fine again, not one of the best, but it looked visually cool. I actually thought the Guard themselves as well had more things to do here than they've all had to do for a while. It's all done so no one feels left out or anything like that. And I like it when something like this manages to balance it's characters really well like that. And going back to the funny parts, I also found the whole Bunga scene during the middle part and at the end funny when he's trying to get at all the flies. So yeah, like some of the other episodes before, not exactly a whole lot to say about this one. It's good and I guess it was kinda worth the wait. And I guess that's a bit of a break from the Lion Guard episodes for a while until they announce the new episodes after this. As soon as they do, I'll let all of you know. Like always, thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think.

My top 10 Dragon Ball Z Sagas
So one of my last entries was me counting down my top 10 favourite storylines in the entire Naruto manga story. And so, kinda continuing that same trend, I'm going to be counting down my top 10 favourite sagas from Dragon Ball Z. This is a lot similar because in almost every other anime out there, they're called storylines, as well as just other shows in general, but here, they decided to call them sagas. And so I'm going to count down my favourites in the whole show. And, yes, like the Naruto storylines one, this will have spoilers. So, if you don't want anything spoiled, go watch the show then read this if you want. And so, let's begin and I hope you all enjoy.
10. The Majin Buu Saga: Starting us off at number 10 is one of the last sagas in the series, the Majin Buu Saga. This is one of the more underrated sagas in this show in my opinion. As I said in my review, some people don't like this saga and think it's the weakest in the show. I don't really think that. In my opinion the least is the filler Garlic Jr. Saga before the Android Saga. And, for me, I personally enjoy this one. It's where we first see Majin Buu and when we do, he proves himself to be the strongest opponent in the show with killing everyone. We get to see Gohan all grown up and Goku's return for a while. And we get to see everyone try to take on Majin Buu like the Vegeta vs. Majinn Buu fight. They also introduced Goten in this, and I really like him. He's Goku and Chi-Chi second son and Gohan's younger brother.
9. The Vegeta Saga: At number 9 is the very first saga in the whole show. This is starting off right after the original Dragon Ball show and I like those kinda sequel series that carry over from the originals like Naruto Shippuden. And this saga wasted no time with getting everything into the action aspect again. It shows that Goku and Chi-Chi have given birth to Gohan but we also learn that Goku is one of the last of an almost extinct alien race called the Saiyans with three more out there wanting to make him join them or kill him. And at first we see one of them with Raditz, who's Goku's brother and then we meet the others, Nappa and one of the best characters in the show, Vegeta. We get an awesome fight scene with Goku and Vegeta where we see things going totally nuts, even for just the starter for a show like Vegeta turning into a huge ape and Goku using a powerful Kamehameha Wave. And all that led to a great opening for a popular TV show.
8. The Captain Ginyu Saga: This is saga that's a bit further from the Vegeta Saga. This is when Gohan, Krillin and Bulma are on planet Namek when Frieza is there too along with his Ginyu Force and Vegeta's there too. They're all there looking for the Namekian Dragon Balls and Goku is heading there too to help Gohan, Krillin and Bulma. Once he finally does arrive, he fights Captain Ginyu and manages to beat him by trapping him in the body of a frog with his mind transference technique. This is also where Vegeta learns the truth about the planet Vegeta. With Frieza being the one who blew it up in the first place. I will admit, I think some of the runtime on the saga is a little too long with them spending a little too much time trying to find the Dragon Balls, but, besides that, this is another fun saga in the show. And even kinda funny like near the end where Goku thinks Vegeta is going to give him a needle inside Frieza's ship.
7. The Android Saga: This is a saga where a lot of things happen. And I do mean a lot. We get introduced to Trunks and we learn he's Vegeta and Bulma's son, we learn that the Earth might be destroyed by some androids who are so incredibly strong, we see Vegeta become a Super Saiyan, Goku returns from Namek and we get a two year time skip with everyone training to fight the androids, not to mention the fact that the androids do attack, but they couldn't have attacked at a worse time because Goku gets the heart virus. Then from all that, one android remains and that turns out to be Krillin's wife, Android 18.
6. The Imperfect Cell Saga: One of the more iconic sagas in Dragon Ball Z in my opinion is the Cell Saga. This and the actual Cell Saga are iconic with so many iconic moments happening in it like Vegeta finds out Future Trunks is his son, Trunks takes on Cell, Cell himself is introduced and he's sort of a smooth and cool talking character like I said before. And I like this and how it introduced a cool character like him.
5. The Babidi Saga: This is right after the Majin Buu Saga where we're introduced to his master, Babidi who has magic that can make him control anyone and make them stronger. This is also during the tournament where Goten and Trunks fight. And with Babidi turning as many people as he can to his side, Vegeta willingly accepts him and lets Babidi control him so he can become stronger. In a way, make him the way he was before which is what he wants. He explains to Goku that he wanted Babidi to make him stronger so he can go back to the way he was before with being a strong and heartless Saiyan warrior. But, he eventually sees the truth and knocks Goku out and sacrifices himself to try to stop Majin Buu. But, before he realises it, we see an awesome fight between Goku and Vegeta for a final fight with them.
4. The Fusion Saga: This is the saga that picks up right after the Babidi Saga where Vegeta dies fighting Majin Buu and after becoming Majin Vegeta and everyone also thinks Gohan is dead too but he's not really. But they think he is and now everyone is training to fight Kid Buu who's separated from Majin Buu so now he's more dangerous and stronger. And with this Gohan and Trunks try to use Fusion which is something where fighters do this thing with their hands and fingers where they merge into one being. And together, they creating to form the being Gotenks, which is really cool. And we get an awesome fight between him and Evil Buu, which is cool.
3. The Cell Games Saga: This is the last saga with Cell. It's called the Cell Games Saga because they're doing this tournament to fight Cell. The saga itself is this huge fight between Gohan and Cell. We even get to see Gohan transform into Super Saiyan 2 and he's even stronger than everyone here, even Goku. And the entire fight between them is amazing. One of my favourite fights in the show. So many things happen there too. We see Gohan fighting, not only Cell, but also the little Cell Jr. creatures, Goku dies again when sacrificing himself, him and Gohan team-up and manage to beat Cell and Vegeta even manages to help in defeating him too. I love all those moments and there's a really nice moment at the end when Goku says he's proud of him. That was really nice. Watch.
2. The Frieza Saga: I think this is the most popular out of all the sagas in this series and it was my favourite for a while until the last couple of weeks when I managed to finish the whole show, but still, this is still a really amazing part of the show. We get an entire season long fight between Goku and Frieza which might be my favourite fight in the show and one of my favourite anime fights ever. It's amazing. Goku goes Super Saiyan for the first time, Frieza kills a bunch of people including Vegeta, Piccolo and Krillin, Frieza uses his power to destroy the planet's core which causes it blow and so Goku is on a time limit to finish Frieza and get off the planet before it explodes and all this is still happening on planet Namek. At this point, it felt like everything this show was leading up to had finally happened with Goku fighting the best villain in the show and finally obtaining the power of a Super Saiyan, which is something Vegeta had been mentioning a few times, but I'm sure people who originally read the manga before the show was made didn't know what it was. We finally got to see it and it is amazing unbelievable power and him getting gold hair.
And my number 1 favourite Dragon Ball Z saga is... The Kid Buu Saga: And finally at number 1 is the last saga in the series and the conclusion to the original, the Kid Buu Saga. This is like when I did my top 10 Naruto storylines too because I put the last one at number 1 there too and I'm doing here too. This is my favourite saga in all of Dragon Ball Z. It's the conclusion to everything like I said and a lot happens. Goku is brought back to life and him and Vegeta, who's also back for a while, fight Kid and Evil Buu who's even more monstrous than before. And we get the finally battle between Goku and Kid Buu which is another one of the best fights in the show. I think I mainly put this here for the same reason that I've mentioned before with other things and that's that I really love happy endings. And this is a really happy ending. Everyone, even the people who're dead like Frieza watch as Goku kills Kid Buu...
... and then everyone's brought together and reunited. Even the original Majin Buu turns good, which is something I really love. Here's the finally scene.
It's really nice and I love it. And all that is why the Kid Buu Saga is my favourite saga in all of Dragon Ball Z. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think or, if you like Dragon Ball Z. Tell me what saga is your favourite.
10. The Majin Buu Saga: Starting us off at number 10 is one of the last sagas in the series, the Majin Buu Saga. This is one of the more underrated sagas in this show in my opinion. As I said in my review, some people don't like this saga and think it's the weakest in the show. I don't really think that.

My top 10 future Kingdom Hearts Disney bosses
So seeing as it looks like Kingdom Hearts will most likely have more entries after Kingdom Hearts 3, I thought I'd count the Disney bosses from that game and what ones we'll see afterwards as well as Kingdom Hearts 3 itself. So even if some of these aren't going to be in Kingdom Hearts 3, they could show up in another game. Note, these aren't going to be in order of worlds I want to see in the games, just the bosses themselves I want to see. And with some of these, I'll explain how to fight them and where'd they'd come from, like how they'd start. And so, let's begin and I hope you all enjoy.
10. Hopper:
Starting us off is the main villain from A Bug's Life. Seeing how Pixar is now going to be Kingdom Hearts as we saw with the D23 trailer in July, I think it would be cool to include even more Pixar worlds and I think it'd be awesome to use A Bug's Life. And with that, they could include Hopper as the main boss fight for it. They could do it where they follow the story of the movie and then for the finale of it, they can have Sora, Donald and Goofy vs. Hopper. And then the end can have the mother bird come in and take him away. And the fight could maybe come in early on so it would be that he'd be in your weight class.
9. Zira:
Like I said before, I think doing the Lion King 2 in a future Kingdom Hearts game would be really cool to see. As well as actually seeing the Pride Lands back as a world again. And if they do, I would really love to see Zira as the final boss. It could be like how Scar was in Kingdom Hearts 2. It would even be cool if it was like the way I explained before in my thoughts of how a Lion King 2 would work in the game where Sora, Donald, Goofy, Kiara and Kovu sorta came in to stop the big fight but Zira is too stubborn to actually stop and that's when you have to fight her.
8. Zurg:
Seeing as Toy Story is going be in Kingdom Hearts 3, I think having Zurg as the ending boss fight would be awesome. I think it could be a little bit like Disney Infinity where Zurg is huge and you have to fight him that way. Maybe if the power of darkness was making him big and was giving him this power. And I think it would be a little funny if at the end of it, they could sorta put him back into his box. That could be funny and it could maybe occur right after you see Young Xehanort like we saw in the D23 trailer.
7. Syndrome and the Omnidroid:
Maybe the biggest Pixar fight I want to see is Syndrome and the Omnidroid from the Incredibles. And for this one, they could have it where Syndrome is controlling the Omnidroid and you have to fight it first and then he comes down to fix it and that's when you attack him. And at the end, the Omnidroid could maybe fall over and explode.
6. Hans:
Like the Zira fight I mentioned, I already explained how this fight would happen. And I still stand by that. I think it would be cool if he was corrupted by darkness and he may turn into some Heartless or something or maybe you can just fight him as himself. Overall, I would love for there to be a Frozen world and Hans as the final boss. Having come in at the end with powers of darkness would be cool especially if it's a little later in the game and Sora has more experience so you could do more things while Hans could do more abilities. Read my thoughts on Frozen in Kingdom Hearts 3 to get a better idea on my thoughts if you haven't already.
5. Mother Gothel:
This is another world that's been confirmed for Kingdom Hearts 3. And so they could do it the way I explained it before where Rapunzel's hair gets cut and Gothel falls out of the window. But when she does, a huge Heartless that kinda looks like her could fly up and you have to fight her outside the tower. And it could have a resemblance to her like a lot of Heartless like that. And it could either be a flying Heartless or a regular standing one. That would be really cool and I would love it if she had some sort of ability with her hair like Rapunzel. Almost like her Heartless power was giving her some power like that or something.
4. Te Kā:
Next up is the, kinda, main villain from the latest Disney Classic, Te Kā. Like I said in my thoughts of Moana in Kingdom Hearts 3, I said it would be cool if you had to fight her as Moana is climbing up the big rock. Like I said before, they could have it where you have to knock her out to give Moana time to climb to the top. And having that, as well as given the things you could do to her, that raises a lot of ideas in my opinion. They could do a lot with it and I would love it if they could actually do that.
3. King Candy:
I'm mainly talking about King Candy here when he's merged with the Cy-Bug from this picture. I think if they actually have this fight on top of Diet Cola Mountain, that would be cool and especially if he was also merged with a Heartless like I said before. And, maybe, as the fight is happening, the mentos on the volcano could be dropping more and more. And when you beat him, that could be it. They could all have gone down by then and that could be that fight. Just keep attacking him until all the mentos hit the volcano so it can erupt. If you've seen Wreck-It Ralph, then you'll know why you'd have to do that. And then Vanellope could save Sora, Donald, Goofy and Ralph. Speaking of which, Ralph could be your partner for this world and you could team up with him to fight him.
2. Tamatoa:
I think that the biggest they could do if they decide to do Moana is Tamatoa. Pretty much the same as a lot of these I've mentioned, I think if they did it the way I have before would be cool Sora, Donald, Goofy, Moana and Maui go to his lair and you have to fight him in order to knock him onto his back would be a pretty cool fight. You could have to get on to his back and attack his head or attack his legs to make him fall a little then attack his head. And then the ending could be him falling over onto his back like in the movie. That would be great.
Honourable mentions:

Mad Madam Mim,
Yzma,
The Horned King
And the number 1 Disney boss I want to see in a future Kingdom Hearts game is... Shadow-Man:
And finally is the main villain from the Princess and the Frog, the Shadow-Man. Just the name the Shadow-Man sounds like something that Kingdom Hearts could use. Like I said before, again, they could have it where he has the power of darkness and he can summon Heartless but his shadow could also be a Heartless itself. Even be an actual shadow. Like the Heartless Shadow, if you know what I mean. And as the boss goes on, maybe the Heartless he's using could become bigger or maybe he could get stronger And, actually, maybe they could have it where, like I said, he summons Heartless, but, as the fight starts, he could start summoning small ones like Shadows, and as it's going on, he summons stronger ones like the ones we saw in the Kingdom Hearts 3 trailers. That would all be really awesome to see. And so everyone, those are the top 10 Disney bosses I want to see in future Kingdom Hearts games including Kingdom Hearts 3. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think or, if you like Kingdom Hearts, tell me what ones you'd like to see.
10. Hopper:

If you've seen Wreck-It Ralph, then you'll know why you'd have to do that. And then Vanellope could save Sora, Donald, Goofy and Ralph. Speaking of which, Ralph could be your partner for this world and you could team up with him to fight him.
2. Tamatoa:
I think that the biggest they could do if they decide to do Moana is Tamatoa. Pretty much the same as a lot of these I've mentioned, I think if they did it the way I have before would be cool Sora, Donald, Goofy, Moana and Maui go to his lair and you have to fight him in order to knock him onto his back would be a pretty cool fight. You could have to get on to his back and attack his head or attack his legs to make him fall a little then attack his head. And then the ending could be him falling over onto his back like in the movie. That would be great.
Honourable mentions:
Callaghan,
Davy Jones,
Shere Khan,
Mad Madam Mim,
Yzma,
The Horned King
And the number 1 Disney boss I want to see in a future Kingdom Hearts game is... Shadow-Man:
And finally is the main villain from the Princess and the Frog, the Shadow-Man. Just the name the Shadow-Man sounds like something that Kingdom Hearts could use. Like I said before, again, they could have it where he has the power of darkness and he can summon Heartless but his shadow could also be a Heartless itself. Even be an actual shadow. Like the Heartless Shadow, if you know what I mean. And as the boss goes on, maybe the Heartless he's using could become bigger or maybe he could get stronger And, actually, maybe they could have it where, like I said, he summons Heartless, but, as the fight starts, he could start summoning small ones like Shadows, and as it's going on, he summons stronger ones like the ones we saw in the Kingdom Hearts 3 trailers. That would all be really awesome to see. And so everyone, those are the top 10 Disney bosses I want to see in future Kingdom Hearts games including Kingdom Hearts 3. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think or, if you like Kingdom Hearts, tell me what ones you'd like to see.

The Lion Guard: Rafiki's New Neighbours
Next up for the new Lion Guard episodes is this, Rafiki's New Neighbours. Kinda like the last one, I actually kinda forgot about this for a while until earlier today when I suddenly remembered. And so a little while ago I watched it not knowing anything. And, how was it? Pretty good, I guess. Yeah, these last few episodes have just been fine to me. Not bad, but not anything spectacular. And this will have spoilers, so, if you want to watch it and you don't want anything spoiled, go see it and then read this. What's the story? At first, the Lion Guard is trying to put out some fire around a part of the Pride Lands. But then we see Rafiki training Makini to paint like him. But as they're doing that, they're interrupted by some animals who arrive at Rafiki's tree. An elephant, a monkey and an gazelle. They've been thrown out of their herds because they annoy them all the time. And so he tries to get the Guard to get them back to their herds and they manage to, but they keep annoying everyone so they're kicked out again realising that them being by themselves with each other is where they truly belong. Also lightning has hit the ground starting more fire so the Guard try to put them out too with their help while another fire is around Rafiki's tree. So yeah, kind of another usual plot that this show's been using a lot. And this episode reminds me a lot of the episodes Ono the Tickbird and The Lost Gorillas. Whereas, in Ono the Tickbird, this rhino was sorta being annoying and his bird flew off like how here, the animals were being annoying to their herds and they were sorta banished from them sorta and then in the Lost Gorillas, just the way they're acting with always sorta messing around reminds me of the gorillas in that. And here, they sorta do something very similar in a way. But they do it in a way where it's not boring. You're still entertained. There's even an especially funny line from Fuli in the episode when the animals are eating bugs like Bunga and she says that they're like more Bungas. That was pretty funny. But still, the episode itself is just fine as I said. The only part of the episode I do really like is Rafiki and Makini's part with him trying to teach her how to listen to the lions of the past to tell her how to paint. That whole part is actually really nice. Especially the ending to the episode where she does one on Pride Rock of Simba, Nala, Kion and Kiara. That was a good scene in my opinion. And with those scenes and the other good things, that makes this a watchable episode, just not one of the best in my opinion. So yeah, these past few episodes have been okay in my opinion. However, I have a feeling the next one will be a lot better. If you remember from before, the next episode is going to be the Rescue from the Outlands episode, or, something like that. And I am really excited for that. Expect that up soon. For this, check it out if you want. It's not a bore, I suppose.

The Punisher: Season 1 trailer
So today we finally got the real trailer for the first season of the Punisher show on Netflix. We still haven't gotten a release date for it, but this first real trailer looks really cool. Jon Bernthal is still doing a great job as the Punisher and this trailer looks really violent and cool. My guess is that this is most likely going to be an R-rated show like others, especially Daredevil: Season 2. We also get to see Karen again and I cannot wait for it to be released later on this year. It's so awesome and I'm really excited. And so, here it is and I hope you all enjoy.

My top 5 Death Note characters
A couple of months ago I made a few posts in a row to count down my favourite characters from different anime. And so I'm adding to it by doing this. I'm counting down my 5 favourite characters from Death Note. I'm doing 5 because there aren't many characters to make a 10 list and I don't really like some of the characters in it. Some of the others who aren't on this I don't dislike, but still. Anyway, let's begin and I hope you all like this.
5. Near:
This is probably odd with what I said in my review a few months ago, but, like a said a second ago, I don't entirely like a lot of the characters in the show, but, out of the other ones that are in the show and aren't on the list yet, Near is the one I think I like the most. Sure, he's kind of a rip-off of L, but I kinda like him because I liked how it was him how cracked the Kira Case and was the one who outsmarted Light during the last two episodes. I also like how kinda calm he is at times despite what's he's up against. Even his goal is pretty easy to get. He wants to surpass L by being better than him. Again, I'm not gonna say that making him was a great move, because that whole turning point in the show is where it went downhill, if you know what I mean or if you read my review, but I still liked him.
At number 4 is the main character to the whole show and the main villain as well, Light. This may or may not surprise some people because they most likely thought he'd be higher because some thought it was weird a few months ago how I was putting the main character as my favourite character in those shows, but here, no, Light's not my favourite character. But still, Light is a fairly notorious guy as I said in my review. In the show he turns from this genius guy to a genius guy who's also evil because he begins to enjoy killing people in the Death Note. He almost kinda seems complex in some ways and he seems interesting in a lot of ways like his battle against L with their wits, which is something I also mentioned a lot in my review. The fact that whole fight of wits was the most interesting part of the show. And I liked how they sorta flipped this kinda character around meaning he's the main character, but he's also the main villain. That was interesting to see. And he's really despicable throughout the show too like I said before with that horrible things he's doing. That's one thing that makes a great villain. One that you find yourself hating so much. And Light Yagami is that. A truly evil guy who's a great villain.
3. Aizawa
Next up is the only member of the police on the list, Aizawa. I always thought he was my favourite of them all even though the others aren't too good. I don't really remember the others except Matsuda, but he's a just a loudmouth idiot. Aizawa on the other hand is smart, likeable and the only one I actually remember. It was nice that he got more to do during the last few episodes. And I liked how he was beginning to suspect Light near the end as well because of what Near was telling him.
2. Ryuk:
At number 2 is the Shinigami god, Ryuk. I always sorta thought Ryuk was the kinda pet like expositional character for the show because at the start of the show he hung around Light like a pet or something, but he was also the one who explained all the rules to him while also manipulating him because he never really cared of what was going on. He always just wanted to see chaos or, as he said, he was being "interested." He was a super cool and kinda creepy character too and he has an awesome design with an amazing voice performance from Brian Drummond.
And my number 1 favourite Death Note character is... L:
He also has an amazing voice performance from Alessandro Juliani. And I like him with the sugar scenes 'cause they're funny like him with cake.
5. Near:

The Lion Guard: Swept Away
So, moving away from Kingdom Hearts for this one entry, we just got the latest episode today for the Lion Guard, Swept Away. I had actually completely forgotten about this until yesterday and so I was waiting today for it and then I watched it. And what'd I think of it? Good, but, again, not exactly anything extraordinary. There were some great things in it like some ideas, but, it's just good to me. And, yes, this will have some spoilers so if you want to see it, go see it and then read this. What's the story? Kion and the others are freeing a bunch of zebras from the ground they're stuck in. But it's still the dry season so it's hard to get them out with them being really stuck. But Kion then sees a cloud and remembers what Zira told him in the Outlands how he can roar at a cloud to make it rain. So he does but there's too much rain and they manage to get them free. However, Beshte was trying to stop the water from hitting them but then he gets washed away to the Outlands. So now he has to find his way back while the others are looking for him too. But the lizards who know the Hyenas and Ushari spot him and try to trick him into a trap for the Hyenas to attack him. All while Beshte isn't doing so good himself with the hot sun burning him so he's trying to get some shade. That's as far as I'll go there. So first, what did I like here, obviously all the things I always talk about with these Lion Guard episodes are still great here. Voice cast, animation, locations and all that. The song is... fine. It's sorta like a different style of what they usually do with songs with it almost kinda seeming like a normal rhyme. But, I think what I like the most is Scar's involvement with this because, if you remember in a previous Scar is still in the volcano in the Outlands. So it was his idea to try to kill Beshte. But, like some of the other episodes I've talked about before, I really like the journey in the episode. As in Beshte trying to go through the Outlands. They even bring back those lizards as I said before and I think they way they do them in this episode is the same as when Kion was in the Outlands and he met Jasiri. But here, they do a reversal on it. As in they have it where Beshte meets the lizards and they offer to take him back to the Pride Lands, just like Jasiri did, but they're just trying to trick him into falling for their trap. And so I did like that. I also liked the whole Guard going to find him. The episode has a few funny scenes. Especially one scene in particular that was really funny to me. I also liked the call-back to the Lions of the Outlands episode where Kion does the roar on the cloud. That was cool to see again. Although, kinda going back to what I just said a second ago, with Scar now in the volcano, I think, and this is kinda off topic, but still, I think it would be pretty cool to see Zira and the other Outsiders going to him and making a plan with him. Sorry I got off subject there. I'm just saying. But back to the episode, I also like the whole scene in the volcano with the villains, that had some funny parts. Speaking of which, there's a really funny scene with Cheezi and Chungu. They're usually really funny because of how stupid they are. And there's a scene with them that's really funny in the volcano.
Sorry if this review isn't very big, but I think when I do these Lion Guard episode reviews, I don't really know what to say that I haven't already said in these other reviews. I just sorta run out of new synonyms to describe everything. This is just another enjoyable episode and I would recommend seeing it. Again, sorry it's not very big, but that's really all I got to say. So, yeah, even though this review's not big, I do think you should go watch this. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think.

My top 5 underrated worlds in Kingdom Hearts
So, my last entry was me talking about my favourite worlds in Kingdom Hearts, however, here, I'm going to talk about the worlds in the franchise that I think are a little underrated. Ones that either people don't talk about, or ones that people don't like. Not all the ones that people don't like will be here because I do agree with some of them. But, others, I find a lot of enjoyment in. And, if you play these games and if you don't like these worlds, that's fine, these are all just my opinion. And so, let's begin and I hope you all like this.
5. Beast's Castle: This one that falls under the category of being one that no one talks about. I really enjoy Beast's Castle. It's so well designed and it's cool to explore the different parts of the castle as you go through it. Especially when you see the characters there like Lumiere, Cogsworth, Mrs. Potts and Chip. That was cool and pretty funny. I really like the scale of the castle too. It may not look exactly like it did in the movie, but I still think it looks really impressive. I just like it because it's a lot of fun.
4. The Grid: This is certainly a weird pick if you know me because, as I've said before, I really don't like the Tron: Legacy movie. But, this level on the other hand, I feel does kinda fix it. Probably just because Sora and Riku are in it and, well, yeah, it's Sora and Riku. They can make any story in a world work. (Remember what I just said there because I didn't say the world itself. I'm talking about the bad worlds in the franchise. If the world itself is bad, at least the story in it is good for me because one of them is in it.) Anyway, I do feel this world is pretty cool looking and the design is pretty cool. The fights are really fun too and fighting Rinzel, A.K.A, Tron, is one of the best fights in the whole series, in my opinion. Again, still don't like the movie, but this world I think isn't that bad.
3. Port Royal: I was actually really surprised when I first saw this because, at the time when Kingdom Hearts 2 came out, this was the first live action Disney movie that was made into a Kingdom Hearts world. And it looks really, really good. You can tell they tried their hardest to make this look like a live action movie converted into video game graphics and it really, really works. The characters look so much like in the movie. But even besides, that I also like this movie for, again, being so much fun. I love the Barbossa fight and seeing Sora, Donald and Goofy sailing with Jack was cool to see.
2. The Pride Lands: This was on my list of my favourite worlds in the franchise I did a few days ago. And I do think this is underrated. I don't think a lot of people like this world, but I personally really do. It was really cool to see Sora transform into this small lion cub. And it was especially cool to, just, dash all over the Pride Lands fighting Heartless and meeting these characters. We already kinda met Simba in the first game, but here, we get to see the others. And that was awesome and I love the final fight at the end in your first visit to it when you fight Scar. I thought that was really cool. I personally have a lot of fun with this world and think it's one of best.
And my number 1 underrated world in Kingdom Hearts is... The 100 Acre Wood: And finally, at number 1, I have the 100 Acre Wood at number 1. I personally love this world. Some people say they don't because they think it's boring. But I never thought that. This world was so much fun. Seeing Sora interact with Pooh and his friends was great, especially in Kingdom Hearts 2. It's like I said before, in Kingdom Hearts 2, it was great to see Sora, Donald and Goofy reunite with their old friends from the last game, and this is no exception. I love seeing Sora interact with everyone and I love the mini-games in it too. Every time you went there, there were these mini-games to do and I loved them. It was also really cool to see a Winnie the Pooh world in Kingdom Hearts. It's just really great in my opinion and I love this world. And so everyone, those are my picks for my most underrated worlds in Kingdom Hearts. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think or, if you like Kingdom Hearts, then please comment to tell me your most underrated world.

My top 10 worlds in Kingdom Hearts
Continuing my Kingdom Hearts count downs is this, my 10 favourite worlds in all the games. And this will include Disney worlds as well as original worlds as well. All the locations throughout every game. Given how we'll have a lot more Disney worlds in Kingdom Hearts 3 when it comes out, I thought it would be cool to look at the ones we've gotten so far and count down my favourites. Not just Disney worlds, but all worlds. And so, let's begin and I hope you all enjoy.
10. The Land of Dragons: Starting us off at number 10 is the first Disney world and that is the Land of Dragons which is the Mulan world from Kingdom Hearts 2. One of the first worlds you go to in the game, this world is pretty beautifully designed. I mean it sorta takes inspiration from Chinese paintings, which is what Mulan, the movie, was sorta trying to capture with it's animation, and it does so well with that, but on top of that, so many things happen here. There's the funny scene at the camp at the beginning, the Shan Yu battle is one of my favourite boss fights in the franchise with him being in you weight class, there's the Heartless fight on the mountain against, maybe, Riku. It's also great at the start of the game to go around to the different locations and even to do the different tasks that Shang gives you at the start.
9. Olympus Coliseum: Next up is the Disney world with one of the most things to do in a Disney world, Olympus Coliseum. There's a lot to do here like the different tournaments, the boss fights with Hades, the Ice Titan, Cerberus and Sephiroth, there's going into the Underworld fighting Demyx and so many others. Also, I gotta say, remember in my Kingdom Hearts 2 review in February I mentioned how it was great fun watching Sora, Donald and Goofy reunite with their old friends from the last game? Well, I think this is one of the biggest stand outs when they reunite with Hercules and Phil. Seeing that is fantastic.
8. Halloween Town: Now, while in the last one, I was mainly talking about in Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2. But here, I am talking about both, but I'm mainly talking about Kingdom Hearts 2. I love it in Kingdom Hearts 1, but I think I love it more in Kingdom Hearts because I think the world is better designed and more fun. But still, both of them are great. But I love the Kingdom Hearts 2 one more because, as I said, it's better designed, but also, you can go to both Halloween Town and Christmas Town. Also, seeing more of that reuniting interaction is so great and I can't wait to see more of that Disney interaction in Kingdom Hearts 3. Oogie Boogie is also a fantastic boss fight in both games, and I love just how fun it is.
7. Disney Castle: This is the home world for a lot of the main Disney characters in the games like King Mickey, Donald, Goofy, Queen Minnie and so many others. This was only in Kingdom Hearts 2, but I still love it. Seeing Donald and Goofy come back to their home and even seeing Sora interacting with Queen Minnie is so amazing. But seeing the Hall of the Cornerstone in thorns and darkness is really creepy and it gives you an uncomfortable feeling. Especially the scene where they're talking to Maleficent for a second. But I do love it for being so fun and the Disney interactions were so great.
6. The World That Never Was: Pretty much the end climax world for Kingdom Hearts 2 and, kinda, Dream Drop Distance. This is where you go to save Kairi, defeat the Organization, stop Kingdom Hearts and so many others. This is where I think you can do grinding the best if you want to level up faster. But, so many things happen here. You reunite with Kairi and Riku, you fight almost every Organization member, you get to see Sora kinda show off a whole bunch of athletic moves that sorta come outta nowhere. And you get a ton of stuff there like the Oblivion Key and the Two Become One Key. In Dream Drop Distance, you see Xehanort again and fight young Xehanort.
5. The Pride Lands: I think one of the most underrated worlds out there is the Pride Lands from Kingdom Hearts 2. And I don't really understand what people don't like about this because, if they were talking about some of the other transformation worlds like Atlantica, then I'd understand where the problem is, but, for this world, I don't get it. It's a lot of fun and also kinda awesome to see Sora as a lion interacting with the characters from that movie like Simba again and Nala, Timon, Pumbaa, Rafiki, Scar. It's so cool and it's also cool with the Scar boss at the end of the first visit. I love it all and it can even be kinda funny with some of these scenes like the part where Sora, Donald, Goofy Timon and Pumbaa are singing Hakuna Matata. Watch this.
4. Traverse Town: This is the first world Sora goes to after he's separated from the islands. He appear here and you meet some Final Fantasy characters as well as Donald and Goofy for the first time. This is also where Sora learns everything like when Leon and Yuffie explain everything to him. You can even go to see Merlin and go to the 100 Acre Wood here. I think I liked it more in Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance because you could go to more places and it was bigger. It was so much fun. I loved it. Just everything in this, I think, is so great and so much fun.
3. Neverland: Now we come to my favourite Disney world in the whole franchise. Neverland is such a fun world to go to. Especially in the first Kingdom Hearts. Going to a Peter Pan world itself is awesome, but you can do many things here. You get the glide ability, which is one of the best abilities in the whole series. Plus, you can fly. Flying was so much fun. Especially since you didn't have to worry about platforming. This is also the first world where Sora finally finds Kairi since the destruction of the islands at the start of the game.
2. Twilight Town: This was the first world back in Kingdom Hearts 2 with Roxas and it was fantastic. There's beautiful music, open spaces, fun side quest like the Struggle, awesome locations and I like how it was kinda mysteriously introduced in Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories because you have no idea what it really is. All you know is that it's a weird town that Sora doesn't know because he's never been there before, but something inside him is telling him that he does kinda remember. But's still such a beautiful world to look at and explore.
And my number 1 favourite world in Kingdom Hearts is... Hollow Bastion: This is the world where, I thin, the most things happen. I mean, so much happens here. This is where Sora saves Kairi, he sacrifices himself, he gets turned into a Heartless, there the battle for Hollow Bastion in the second game, we almost think Goofy dies, there's the 1000 Heartless fight, you go to Space Paranoids, you see the gang back with the old Final Fantasy characters, you go to the 100 Acre Wood again. You can do so much and never get bored, I personally like it the best in Kingdom Hearts 2 for the same reason as Halloween Town. That being it's better designed. But I love both. It such an amazing world with some of the franchise's best moments ever. I can't express enough how much I love it. And so everyone, those are my top 10 favourite worlds in Kingdom Hearts. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think or tell me what your favourite world is if you like Kingdom Hearts too.
10. The Land of Dragons: Starting us off at number 10 is the first Disney world and that is the Land of Dragons which is the Mulan world from Kingdom Hearts 2. One of the first worlds you go to in the game, this world is pretty beautifully designed. I mean it sorta takes inspiration from Chinese paintings, which is what Mulan, the movie, was sorta trying to capture with it's animation, and it does so well with that, but on top of that, so many things happen here. There's the funny scene at the camp at the beginning, the Shan Yu battle is one of my favourite boss fights in the franchise with him being in you weight class, there's the Heartless fight on the mountain against, maybe, Riku. It's also great at the start of the game to go around to the different locations and even to do the different tasks that Shang gives you at the start.
9. Olympus Coliseum: Next up is the Disney world with one of the most things to do in a Disney world, Olympus Coliseum. There's a lot to do here like the different tournaments, the boss fights with Hades, the Ice Titan, Cerberus and Sephiroth, there's going into the Underworld fighting Demyx and so many others. Also, I gotta say, remember in my Kingdom Hearts 2 review in February I mentioned how it was great fun watching Sora, Donald and Goofy reunite with their old friends from the last game? Well, I think this is one of the biggest stand outs when they reunite with Hercules and Phil. Seeing that is fantastic.
8. Halloween Town: Now, while in the last one, I was mainly talking about in Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2. But here, I am talking about both, but I'm mainly talking about Kingdom Hearts 2. I love it in Kingdom Hearts 1, but I think I love it more in Kingdom Hearts because I think the world is better designed and more fun. But still, both of them are great. But I love the Kingdom Hearts 2 one more because, as I said, it's better designed, but also, you can go to both Halloween Town and Christmas Town. Also, seeing more of that reuniting interaction is so great and I can't wait to see more of that Disney interaction in Kingdom Hearts 3. Oogie Boogie is also a fantastic boss fight in both games, and I love just how fun it is.
7. Disney Castle: This is the home world for a lot of the main Disney characters in the games like King Mickey, Donald, Goofy, Queen Minnie and so many others. This was only in Kingdom Hearts 2, but I still love it. Seeing Donald and Goofy come back to their home and even seeing Sora interacting with Queen Minnie is so amazing. But seeing the Hall of the Cornerstone in thorns and darkness is really creepy and it gives you an uncomfortable feeling. Especially the scene where they're talking to Maleficent for a second. But I do love it for being so fun and the Disney interactions were so great.
6. The World That Never Was: Pretty much the end climax world for Kingdom Hearts 2 and, kinda, Dream Drop Distance. This is where you go to save Kairi, defeat the Organization, stop Kingdom Hearts and so many others. This is where I think you can do grinding the best if you want to level up faster. But, so many things happen here. You reunite with Kairi and Riku, you fight almost every Organization member, you get to see Sora kinda show off a whole bunch of athletic moves that sorta come outta nowhere. And you get a ton of stuff there like the Oblivion Key and the Two Become One Key. In Dream Drop Distance, you see Xehanort again and fight young Xehanort.
5. The Pride Lands: I think one of the most underrated worlds out there is the Pride Lands from Kingdom Hearts 2. And I don't really understand what people don't like about this because, if they were talking about some of the other transformation worlds like Atlantica, then I'd understand where the problem is, but, for this world, I don't get it. It's a lot of fun and also kinda awesome to see Sora as a lion interacting with the characters from that movie like Simba again and Nala, Timon, Pumbaa, Rafiki, Scar. It's so cool and it's also cool with the Scar boss at the end of the first visit. I love it all and it can even be kinda funny with some of these scenes like the part where Sora, Donald, Goofy Timon and Pumbaa are singing Hakuna Matata. Watch this.
3. Neverland: Now we come to my favourite Disney world in the whole franchise. Neverland is such a fun world to go to. Especially in the first Kingdom Hearts. Going to a Peter Pan world itself is awesome, but you can do many things here. You get the glide ability, which is one of the best abilities in the whole series. Plus, you can fly. Flying was so much fun. Especially since you didn't have to worry about platforming. This is also the first world where Sora finally finds Kairi since the destruction of the islands at the start of the game.
2. Twilight Town: This was the first world back in Kingdom Hearts 2 with Roxas and it was fantastic. There's beautiful music, open spaces, fun side quest like the Struggle, awesome locations and I like how it was kinda mysteriously introduced in Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories because you have no idea what it really is. All you know is that it's a weird town that Sora doesn't know because he's never been there before, but something inside him is telling him that he does kinda remember. But's still such a beautiful world to look at and explore.
And my number 1 favourite world in Kingdom Hearts is... Hollow Bastion: This is the world where, I thin, the most things happen. I mean, so much happens here. This is where Sora saves Kairi, he sacrifices himself, he gets turned into a Heartless, there the battle for Hollow Bastion in the second game, we almost think Goofy dies, there's the 1000 Heartless fight, you go to Space Paranoids, you see the gang back with the old Final Fantasy characters, you go to the 100 Acre Wood again. You can do so much and never get bored, I personally like it the best in Kingdom Hearts 2 for the same reason as Halloween Town. That being it's better designed. But I love both. It such an amazing world with some of the franchise's best moments ever. I can't express enough how much I love it. And so everyone, those are my top 10 favourite worlds in Kingdom Hearts. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think or tell me what your favourite world is if you like Kingdom Hearts too.

My top 10 Keyblades in Kingdom Hearts
With Kingdom Hearts 3 getting closer and closer everyday, I thought that, for these next few entries, I'd devote them to it and do a few of them surrounding the series. And by that, I mean I'm gonna make a few lists devoted to it. Especially now that I'm playing Kingdom Hearts 1.5 + 2.5. And starting that off is this. My top 10 favourite Keyblades in the whole series. The Keyblade is my favourite weapon ever and so I'm going to use this entry to count down my 10 favourites in all the games. They're so many in all these games, but I managed to think about it enough to come up with my own top 10 favourites. And so, let's begin and I hope you all enjoy.
10. The Zero/One Key:
Starting us off is the final Keyblade you get in Kingdom Hearts: Re:Coded. You get this when you go to Castle Oblivion at the end. It's really strong, as t be expected from the final one you'd get. And, just like all the other final Keyblades you get, it's really strong and colours are cool on it with it kinda reminiscing the Kingdom Key, especially the Mickey Mouse head keychain. And if you use the "Tree" part right in the game with this Keyblade, it becomes really strong.
9. The Divine Rose Key:
Near the end of the first Kingdom Hearts game. When you go to Hollow Bastion the second time, you can find Belle in the Library and she'll give it to you. It's so strong and so cool looking. Especially the way the purple colour is used on it. And I also love it in Kingdom Hearts: Union X where it's one of my strongest Keyblades there and when you constantly level it up, and when it gets to a specific level, it changes its look again and it looks so cool.
8. The Oathkeeper Key:
The first Roxas Keyblade on this is the Oathkeeper. You technically first get this Keyblade in the first Kingdom Hearts game when you talk to Kairi in Traverse Town near the end. And it's so awesome. It has this silver colour, which is already cool, but I also love the keychain which is Kairi's good luck charm she gives Sora and he promises to return it, hence why it's called the "Oathkeeper." In Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days, Roxas gets it when Xion disappears and in Kingdom Hearts 2, you get it when you find out Axel took Kairi. And I love the teeth of it which is like a star with a blue, purple and gold colour. I'm mainly putting it here because of Kairi. She's such a great character, and I think this is a great Keyblade to have a memory of her with Sora, almost like it's a way of showing that she's still always with him.
7. The Oblivion Key:
The other one of the Roxas Keyblades is the Oblivion. This one is so cool and powerful. It has a black colour to kinda represent Darkness a little, but the rest is awesome too with a chain going along it with a purple jewel in it. There's also bat wings going around the hilt and I love the crown key chain which looks just like Sora's necklace. In Kingdom Hearts 1, when you go to Hollow Bastion the second time and you go into the room where the Door To Darkness, if you go onto the side and climb the stairs, you'll see a little capsule that looks like the one that the princesses were in, which I'm pretty sure was what Kairi was supposed to be in, you'll see a treasure chest and that's where you get it there. In Kingdom Hearts 2, you get it as soon as you reunite with Riku and Kairi and in Kingdom Hearts: Re:Coded, you get it as finish Hollow Bastion. It just looks so cool, strong and I love the use of it too when you fight with it.
6. The Starlight Key:
_KHX.png/200px-Starlight_(Upgrade_4)_KHX.png)
The only Keyblade on this list that's from Kingdom Hearts: Union X, because this is the only one that originated from there. But this Keyblade is so cool. It sorta represents the Kingdom Key by looking a lot like it at the start and then as you evolve it more, it becomes much cooler looking and so much stronger. I love the way it looks every time you evolve it. I also love the design of the teeth with it looking like an actual star. And I love the gold colour all around it too.
5. The Kingdom Key D:
At number 5 is the Realm of Darkness's Keyblade, the Kingdom Key D. When King Mickey and Aqua were going through the Realm of Darkness, King Mickey found this Keyblade as a way to close the Door To Darkness. And it's so cool because the reverse colour of the regular Kingdom Key, the blade is gold and the piece around the hilt is silver. It's great because it's being used by an awesome character like King Mickey. If you get to play as him in Kingdom Hearts 2, you get to use this and it's so amazing. And the reason it's called the Kingdom Key D is because the D stands for Darkness.
4. The Kingdom Key:
Speaking of the Kingdom Key, here it is at number 4. Being held by Sora himself, this is his main weapon and it looks phenomenal. It's also kind of a simple design. It's got a silver blade with a gold piece surrounding a black hilt with a silver key chain of King Mickey's head. Almost like it's symbolising that King Mickey is always with Sora. But even with that, I mainly put it here because it's the most iconic weapon in the whole series.
3.The Ultima Weapon:
The Ultima Weapon is a monster. And I don't mean that in strength, which it definitely is, but I'm mainly talking about how to get it. Especially in the first Kingdom Hearts. You have to put in so many hours and synthesize over 30 items to get it. It's ridiculous how much you have you put it. In Kingdom Hearts 2, it was better because it wasn't as annoying, but still. In Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep, you have to do all the Mirage Arena challenges and in Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance, you have defeat Julius. When you get it, it becomes so satisfying and it's so strong. I like the one from Kingdom Hearts 1 the most because it looks the coolest and it's more satisfying when you finally get it. It was so satisfying when I finally got it.
2. The Fenrir Key:
One that I never hear people talk about is the Fenrir Key. In Kingdom Hearts 2, when you beat Sephiroth, you have to go to Cloud and tell him where he is and then after the cutscene, Tifa gives it to you. I love the design of it with it looking like Cloud's Buster Sword while still being it's own thing and still being like a Keyblade. I love it and it becomes so useful when you have to do things like going to the Coliseum and doing a bunch of the tournaments. It can also make the final boss with Xemnas feel much faster and much more manageable. It's just a super strong Keyblade. I love it. It is so strong.
And my number 1 favourite Keyblade is... The Unbound Key:
And finally at number 1 is the Unbound Key from Dream Drop Distance. This might be the strongest Keyblade in the whole series. In Dream Drop Distance, once you've completed all the bosses a second time by going to their portals you get this Keyblade for both Sora and Riku once you do both of them. And it's design is amazing. It's teeth are always glowing, it has this sorta bulky size with the blade, it has two crowns on it like above the hilt and the Keychain. And I love how, whenever I go through the worlds in Dream Drop Distance and if I have this one, which I always do, I can just do one swing at the Dream Eaters and that'll destroy them. It's also great to use Firaga Burst, which is also what I always use because using those two things, I can destroy everything and it makes everything so much easier and faster. And all that is why the Unbound Key is my favourite Keyblade in all of Kingdom Hearts. And so everyone, that's my top 10 favourite Keyblades in all of Kingdom Hearts. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think or tell me what your favourite is if you like Kingdom Hearts too.

13 Organization XIII members ranked
Organization XIII are, in my opinion, some of the best villains in all of video game history. And so, with that, and Kingdom Hearts 3 presumably going to have the new Organization be the villains, I thought today I would look at the original Organization and rank all 13. Note, I am sticking with 13. So I'm not counting Xion because she was never really a member. If you've played the games, then you know what I mean. Also, I'm putting the characters here in order of how they are as characters. Not in boss fights or anything like that, just how I like them as characters themselves. And so, let's begin and I hope you all like this.
13. Zexion:
Starting us off at number 13 is the book armed, emo, magic wielding member of the Organization. I think I mainly put Zexion on here because there really isn't much to him. He's not bad, but, when compared to the other members of the Organization, I think he's just the least interesting and we don't really get anything from him. He also seems to be a lot like Ansem with Riku because his whole real motive is to get Riku to turn to the darkness again. And really, like I said, even though he's not bad, I think that out of all the Organization members, he's just the one I like the least and found the least interesting.
12. Luxord:
Next to Zexion, Luxord is on the list this low because I think he's the one we know the least about. On top of that, again, like I just said, there's not really anything to him. I think he's at number 12 and not 13 because he's a little cooler and he does come off as a bit more intimidating. But still, there isn't a thing to him and I have a weird feeling that they made him so they could have another member for the Organization.
11. Xaldin:
Again, even though I said at the beginning that I wouldn't put the characters here by boss fights, I have to say, this guy puts up one huge fight. And, unlike the other two I've already mentioned, he actually does have some kinda backstory behind him. His real name is Dilian who was a guard of the castle at Radiant Garden until Xehanort opened his heart and he because Xaldin. And he's a really cool villain in Beast's Castle in Kingdom Hearts 2.
10. Lexaeus:
Now we get into the awesome members of the Organization. Lexaeus is the strongest member of the Organization. And I don't mean by power, I mean by brute strength. In Chain of Memories, he's kinda like what Zexion was trying to do with trying to make Riku turn to the darkness again. But he does it in more cooler ways and more brawn ways. It's awesome. Speaking of which, his death was also really cool and kinda brutal. Riku uses the power of darkness and just cuts him right down the middle. That was so cool.
At number 9 I have the scientist of the Organization, Vexen. This guy was the reason behind the Replica Riku in Chain of Memories and was kinda the reason for the split that Sora believed was happening between the two of them when he was fighting the replica. And he's a really entertaining villain too. Like when him and Larxene are sort insulting each other constantly. But I also liked his scenes of trying to almost explain things kinda wisely because he's a scientist so he always tried his best to do a lot of experiments. The scenes like that were ones I really liked.
8. Marluxia:
Next up is the main villain, I suppose, of Chain of Memories. Marluxia was actually recently added to Kingdom Hearts: Union X and it was shown that he was around during the times of the Keyblade War and when Ven was still around. But even before that, in Chain of Memories, he was the one who was manipulating Naminé and was ordering her to mess with Sora's memories. And that final boss with him was such a great way to end Sora's part of the game.
7. Demyx:
One of few Organization members to have a personality, this Sitar playing, water wielder is one of most entertaining, as said by a lot of people. In Kingdom Hearts 2, he kinda comes off as a sorta wimpy guy who doesn't really like to fight, which is kinda ironic considering he's one of the hardest bosses in Kingdom Hearts 2. But's also kinda funny with some of his wimpy scenes and I liked all the stuff with him trying to talk to Sora, but he's really trying to talk to Roxas. Like that scene in the Underworld, that was pretty funny.
6. Larxene:
Out of all the Organization members, Larxene is probably the most despicable. Where to even begin? She's constantly taunting Sora about Naminé, threatened to break the lucky charm he though she gave him, throws constant insults to everyone, does nothing but want to make everyone miserable and even tried to help with blackmailing Naminé with Sora's memories. She always so horrible and mean to everyone 100%. And then seeing her disappear when you fight her a second time was so satisfying.
5. Saïx:
At number 5 is sorta the right hand man to Xemnas. In Kingdom Hearts 2, he was like this guy who just wanted to use Sora to get more hearts so they could complete their own Kingdom Hearts. And in Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days, he was sorta trying to manipulate Roxas by making his life doubtful. That's not really what he was doing, but that's what it almost kinda came across to me. But in 358/2 Days, he was the guy giving Roxas all these missions and sending him off to retrieve hearts. But you could tell there was something he was trying to achieve something else as well. At least, that what I thought because, to me, it felt like he was also trying to get ahead of everyone and make everyone doubtful. If you've played the game, you might know what I mean. But, before any of that, he was actually a guy named Isa who was friends with Axel/Lea, when they were younger until their hearts were opened too.
4. Xemnas:
3. Xigbar:
Another Organization member who has some backstory behind him, Xigbar is a member who's always trying to be a smart-aleck with everything he says. But he was originally a traitor guard in Radiant Garden in Birth By Sleep. It was like Xehanort found him, hired him to make it look like he took him captive and in exchange, he probably thought he would get a Keyblade out of it for himself because he says he wanted one. And then he sorta went back to Radiant Garden after he was in the Keyblade Graveyard. And so, I think it would be cool to fight him again in Kingdom Hearts 3 since he's now one of the 13 Seekers of Darkness.
2. Roxas:
Coming in close to number 1 is the Nobody of the main hero, Roxas. After Sora freed his heart, Roxas was also created, but, because Ven's heart was also inside him, that's why he looks like him. And after wandering around Twilight Town for a while, Xemnas found him and brought him into the Organization because he was Sora's Nobody which allowed him to use the Keyblade himself. After befriending Axel and Xion, he was settling down in the Organization. But after a while with things seeming a little off and things not seeming to be right, he began to have doubts. And after betraying the Organization, he set out to find Sora to get Xion back and put everything back to the way it was. But when Riku found and stopped him, he was brought to another Twilight Town with his memory changed and now thinking he was just a regular guy until something seemed off there and then after some convincing, he finally returned to Sora and he vanished. And I love the scene when he finally does return to him.
Roxas himself almost seems kinda complex in places and he's not the easiest to get along with. And I like how he doesn't exactly copy Sora in terms of personality, so he can kinda be his own character. Not, my favourite member of the Organization, but still a good character and one that you may even feel sorry for in places.
1. Axel:
And finally at number 1 is the best friend of Roxas and the one who saved Sora in Dream Drop Distance, as well as one of my favourite characters in the whole series, Axel. Before he was a Nobody, he was a guy named Lea with Saïx when he was still Isa. But when he was in the Organization, he was sorta by himself for a while until Roxas came and they became best friends. After he left and forgot about everything, Axel did everything he could to try to get him back. And after kidnapping Kairi in an attempt to get Sora to release Roxas, he ended up helping Sora which caused his Nobody body to disappear. That helped him get back to normal and then he saved Sora again from Xehanort. He was trying to wield a Keyblade himself and he finally got one as we saw in the end of Dream Drop Distance. And, as we saw in Kingdom Hearts 0.2, it looks like him and Kairi have got to Merlin to try to learn how to use their Keyblades properly. Being a wise cracker all the time, Axel is one of the most entertaining characters in the whole series. I love this character and he is still one of my favourite in the whole game series. I can't wait to see what his role is like in Kingdom Hearts 3. And so everyone, that's my ranking of all Organization XIII members in Kingdom Hearts. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below or, if you like Kingdom Hearts too, please tell me who your favourite is or tell me how you'd rank them.
13. Zexion:
Starting us off at number 13 is the book armed, emo, magic wielding member of the Organization. I think I mainly put Zexion on here because there really isn't much to him. He's not bad, but, when compared to the other members of the Organization, I think he's just the least interesting and we don't really get anything from him. He also seems to be a lot like Ansem with Riku because his whole real motive is to get Riku to turn to the darkness again. And really, like I said, even though he's not bad, I think that out of all the Organization members, he's just the one I like the least and found the least interesting.
12. Luxord:
Next to Zexion, Luxord is on the list this low because I think he's the one we know the least about. On top of that, again, like I just said, there's not really anything to him. I think he's at number 12 and not 13 because he's a little cooler and he does come off as a bit more intimidating. But still, there isn't a thing to him and I have a weird feeling that they made him so they could have another member for the Organization.
11. Xaldin:
Again, even though I said at the beginning that I wouldn't put the characters here by boss fights, I have to say, this guy puts up one huge fight. And, unlike the other two I've already mentioned, he actually does have some kinda backstory behind him. His real name is Dilian who was a guard of the castle at Radiant Garden until Xehanort opened his heart and he because Xaldin. And he's a really cool villain in Beast's Castle in Kingdom Hearts 2.
10. Lexaeus:
Now we get into the awesome members of the Organization. Lexaeus is the strongest member of the Organization. And I don't mean by power, I mean by brute strength. In Chain of Memories, he's kinda like what Zexion was trying to do with trying to make Riku turn to the darkness again. But he does it in more cooler ways and more brawn ways. It's awesome. Speaking of which, his death was also really cool and kinda brutal. Riku uses the power of darkness and just cuts him right down the middle. That was so cool.
And it was also cool when we saw in Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep that he was a Radiant Garden guard as well named Aeleus.
9. Vexen:At number 9 I have the scientist of the Organization, Vexen. This guy was the reason behind the Replica Riku in Chain of Memories and was kinda the reason for the split that Sora believed was happening between the two of them when he was fighting the replica. And he's a really entertaining villain too. Like when him and Larxene are sort insulting each other constantly. But I also liked his scenes of trying to almost explain things kinda wisely because he's a scientist so he always tried his best to do a lot of experiments. The scenes like that were ones I really liked.
8. Marluxia:
Next up is the main villain, I suppose, of Chain of Memories. Marluxia was actually recently added to Kingdom Hearts: Union X and it was shown that he was around during the times of the Keyblade War and when Ven was still around. But even before that, in Chain of Memories, he was the one who was manipulating Naminé and was ordering her to mess with Sora's memories. And that final boss with him was such a great way to end Sora's part of the game.
7. Demyx:
One of few Organization members to have a personality, this Sitar playing, water wielder is one of most entertaining, as said by a lot of people. In Kingdom Hearts 2, he kinda comes off as a sorta wimpy guy who doesn't really like to fight, which is kinda ironic considering he's one of the hardest bosses in Kingdom Hearts 2. But's also kinda funny with some of his wimpy scenes and I liked all the stuff with him trying to talk to Sora, but he's really trying to talk to Roxas. Like that scene in the Underworld, that was pretty funny.
6. Larxene:
Out of all the Organization members, Larxene is probably the most despicable. Where to even begin? She's constantly taunting Sora about Naminé, threatened to break the lucky charm he though she gave him, throws constant insults to everyone, does nothing but want to make everyone miserable and even tried to help with blackmailing Naminé with Sora's memories. She always so horrible and mean to everyone 100%. And then seeing her disappear when you fight her a second time was so satisfying.
5. Saïx:
At number 5 is sorta the right hand man to Xemnas. In Kingdom Hearts 2, he was like this guy who just wanted to use Sora to get more hearts so they could complete their own Kingdom Hearts. And in Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days, he was sorta trying to manipulate Roxas by making his life doubtful. That's not really what he was doing, but that's what it almost kinda came across to me. But in 358/2 Days, he was the guy giving Roxas all these missions and sending him off to retrieve hearts. But you could tell there was something he was trying to achieve something else as well. At least, that what I thought because, to me, it felt like he was also trying to get ahead of everyone and make everyone doubtful. If you've played the game, you might know what I mean. But, before any of that, he was actually a guy named Isa who was friends with Axel/Lea, when they were younger until their hearts were opened too.
4. Xemnas:
3. Xigbar:
Another Organization member who has some backstory behind him, Xigbar is a member who's always trying to be a smart-aleck with everything he says. But he was originally a traitor guard in Radiant Garden in Birth By Sleep. It was like Xehanort found him, hired him to make it look like he took him captive and in exchange, he probably thought he would get a Keyblade out of it for himself because he says he wanted one. And then he sorta went back to Radiant Garden after he was in the Keyblade Graveyard. And so, I think it would be cool to fight him again in Kingdom Hearts 3 since he's now one of the 13 Seekers of Darkness.
2. Roxas:
Coming in close to number 1 is the Nobody of the main hero, Roxas. After Sora freed his heart, Roxas was also created, but, because Ven's heart was also inside him, that's why he looks like him. And after wandering around Twilight Town for a while, Xemnas found him and brought him into the Organization because he was Sora's Nobody which allowed him to use the Keyblade himself. After befriending Axel and Xion, he was settling down in the Organization. But after a while with things seeming a little off and things not seeming to be right, he began to have doubts. And after betraying the Organization, he set out to find Sora to get Xion back and put everything back to the way it was. But when Riku found and stopped him, he was brought to another Twilight Town with his memory changed and now thinking he was just a regular guy until something seemed off there and then after some convincing, he finally returned to Sora and he vanished. And I love the scene when he finally does return to him.
1. Axel:
And finally at number 1 is the best friend of Roxas and the one who saved Sora in Dream Drop Distance, as well as one of my favourite characters in the whole series, Axel. Before he was a Nobody, he was a guy named Lea with Saïx when he was still Isa. But when he was in the Organization, he was sorta by himself for a while until Roxas came and they became best friends. After he left and forgot about everything, Axel did everything he could to try to get him back. And after kidnapping Kairi in an attempt to get Sora to release Roxas, he ended up helping Sora which caused his Nobody body to disappear. That helped him get back to normal and then he saved Sora again from Xehanort. He was trying to wield a Keyblade himself and he finally got one as we saw in the end of Dream Drop Distance. And, as we saw in Kingdom Hearts 0.2, it looks like him and Kairi have got to Merlin to try to learn how to use their Keyblades properly. Being a wise cracker all the time, Axel is one of the most entertaining characters in the whole series. I love this character and he is still one of my favourite in the whole game series. I can't wait to see what his role is like in Kingdom Hearts 3. And so everyone, that's my ranking of all Organization XIII members in Kingdom Hearts. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below or, if you like Kingdom Hearts too, please tell me who your favourite is or tell me how you'd rank them.
