I always pronounce X like the first syllable in "kairi" since that's how it works in math

This was perhaps obvious but let me make it more obvious: they mean χ (or "chi"). It just so happens that uppercase chi looks exactly like our latin letter X. It's even written with the same character.

It's gonna turn out Xehanort left a part of his darkness in Sora when he tried to make him Xehanort and that's why Sora is Xehanort, but Sora's Disney Jesus powers means that Xehanort is already half Sora too, and that is what will redeem him in the final hour before he dies.

I checked like 3 dictionaries when birth by sleep came out and "key" was listed as an accepted pronunciation for χ in only one of them someone is lying

x is a Greek letter. Hades is the Greek god of the dead. Hades is the 13th Xehanort.

Not the first time I've been wrong about how to pronounce a Square name. Cho-ko-bo, not Chawk-oh-bo. Tee-dus, not Tide-us. Cact-war, not Cac-taur.

Cact-war, not Cac-taur. Chee is a correct reading, as is kai. As Xehanort said, it really depends on who you ask. I had never in my life heard it as key before though. Hence the dictionary hunt. I'm still not convinced tbh but maybe I'm just being too much of a presciptivist e: wikipedia is telling me I'm wrong, I have no idea what to believe melodicwaffle fucked around with this message at 17:50 on Jun 21, 2017 |

I will never stop appreciating the fact that Xehanort took time out of his evil monologue to explain the proper pronunciation or lack thereof of an obscure Greek letter

yea the reason this series is so fun is that it took the already kinda bonkers 'here's a game where donald and goofy team up with an anime boy and some Final Fantasy characters to fight things' baseline and every single game after kicked off their dev meeting with 'how can we make this even more extra'. I forgot what stream I watched brought it up but Pete being so horribly out of place in literally every scene of 2 he's in other than the fantastic black and white retro world is probably the best example of this. You have all the XIII guys brooding around, Maleficent up being an evil witch...and then here's this fat cartoon cat in a bright colored jumpsuit all "YEA WE'RE GONNA GET THOSE ROTTEN BRATSES!" It's like any time they give important dialogue to Goofy, they have this poo poo like "Hy-uck I think that was Sephiroth, Cloud's evil half" coming from this big dumb cartoon dog and it's the best. sexpig by night fucked around with this message at 04:16 on Jun 22, 2017 |

You do not need to tell others to be careful.

sexpig by night posted:"This is the lair of Organization XIII, we gotta be careful" When Goofy had the fake out death in KH2, it was hard to take it too seriously, since in the back of my head I was like "There's no way Disney allowed Nomura to unceremoniously kill off Goofy" His explanation afterwards that "Come on you idiots, I get bonked on the head all the time" pretty much sealed it that I was on board for whatever insanity Kingdom Hearts was going to throw on me.

I think there was a thread injoke during the Days LP that the boss in that game was Gaston but nothing concrete. Yeah, I don't think Gaston has for real shown up? He's in UX but UX is all book-of-prophecy worlds I thought (that or the post-UX worlds were the ones that were made made up, either way he'd show up again). Scar is definitely triple dead though. He became a heartless, his heartless defeated, and they destroyed all of his leftover ghosts. If Scar retained his form when becoming a heartless, and his heartless was defeated, does that mean he still has a nobody? And that they'll revive Scar eventually?
