Ever since his appearance in the first Kingdom Hearts, Sora has been a huge hit. With each new Kingdom Hearts game, the love for Sora has only grown and that was pretty clear with Kingdom Hearts 3.

Today, we're going to run-through a whole host of those details!

  • You either die a fan of Sora or live long enough to see yourself identify with Xehanort.
  • @Ellastein
    You're telling me I could have thrown coconuts at Riku...

    Sora is a great choice as a main character for one thing that many don’t talk about. As kids, we usually imagine ourselves in adventures with the characters we grew up with. Sora is the template for our inner kid going on incredible stories and being with our friends.
  • @y4rdkat
    Sora is best boy and I’m tired of pretending he’s not
  • I bet Zootopia would be a good excuse for an inside joke about Sora's original design.
  • @TheAlaskanboy
    That last fact with Nomura was quite surprising for me. Starting out not wanting Sora to exist, then being his favorite, and ending on him being Sora's enemy.
  • Definitely glad they didn’t make a Disney character a protagonist. I love Disney. I grew up with it and still love watching the old and new movies. But I completely understand that Disney is the part of Kingdom Hearts that fans just bear with most of the time.
  • @xlro8f853
    Nomura “I relate to darkness more than my MC.”
  • @joncarlos1
    Fun fact: in the KH3 manga, Sora confirms his uncle cares little about him when he meets Hades again.
  • @brittbritt1838
    I think the end of the series should be Sora going back home to eat dinner with his mom
  • Imagine being Donald Duck for the game .. your party members would be more powerful & useful than you almost 100% of the time 😂
  • @TKM20XX
    Would've loved to bonk Riku with a coconut as a kid, such silliness can only be possible with the first game xD
  • @n0ctiz456
    Never thought Sora would be like zidane with a chainsaw
  • @StevesOnHold
    I remember my brother letting me play Kingdom hearts on the Playstation 2 and he said i was playing as Goofy and now I'm like bruh I was never playing as him
  • @GcorpCoPrez
    The only fact you need to know is: Sora missed dinner.
  • @OmegaGuess
    Not gonna lie, considering gestures vaguely Disney, I'm surprised the Chainsaw option was on the table, like...even as a concept.
  • I think they did a great job aging Sora. I honestly thought he was 10 in kh1.
