Kingdom Hearts/Narm

"Donald:"
 * One particular striking example in Kingdom Hearts is a scene in the second game involving Kairi and Namine It would have been a pretty tense scene... if they weren't holding hands with their arms at ninety-degree angles. At a pace that made them look like they were almost skipping. Right down the middle of the hall.
 * While use of Totally Radical language is a rich, deep well of Narm in itself, most Tropers agree that this is the worst.
 * The reenactions of some movies were pretty ridiculous, too. Especially Pirates of the Caribbean (because of bad animation) and the flashback in The Lion King. Young Simba's model looks like he's perpetually smiling. Which makes him look awfully stupid. While watching his father's death.
 * Every lion's character model in that world just looks wrong. Their eyes don't focus, and their facial expressions never change. Scar in particular always looks like he's on drugs.
 * Another example is how they reenacted the Show Some Leg scene from The Nightmare Before Christmas. They throw Sally's leg in front of Oogie before he could kill Sandy Claws Santa Claus. Like a frikkin' bone. Seriously, off-camera, was Sora saying, "Throw the leg! Throw the leg!"?
 * Well, there wasn't really anything else around to throw, and they needed to act fast.
 * And of course, there's Goofy's "Death". Not only does it come ridiculously out of left field, not only do we get to hear Donald Duck's desperate mourning his fallen comrade, but
 * They really just needed an excuse for Mickey to get dangerous.
 * The Noodle Incident Donald brings up makes it even worse.

"Repliku: Sora... You're always trying to worm your way into my heart! Sora: Hold on... When did I ever do that? Repliku: Oh, so you forgot about THAT too?! You never cared...it NEVER MATTERED TO YOU! (runs off, might as well be crying angry tears.)"
 * Pickaxe guns. That is all.
 * Aren't they just crossbows?
 * Crossbows with muzzle flashes.
 * Who could forget Donald Duck squawking, "Sora, it's SEFFIROFF!"
 * 358/2 Days ruins a perfectly dramatic scene with this line: "Who else will I have ice cream with?" Sure, since he broke up his friendship with Axel a few scenes prior to this, he won't have anyone to eat ice cream with once Xion's gone... but seeing as Xion is, being upset about not having her around to eat ice cream with just sounds ridiculous.
 * It wouldn't be that bad if he had at least completed the sentence with something, but no. He just left at that..
 * It's not even the line itself that's ridiculous, but the delivery. He doesn't phrase it as helpless, grief-stricken, and rhetorical, but a genuine question. Like he really doesn't know who he's going to have ice cream with now, and hopes that will tell him.
 * To be fair, Roxas has spent most of his not knowing what an emotion is, let alone how to properly feel them. It's tragic, in one sense; Roxas, at that point, could only concieve of friendship as 'eating ice cream with people'. He was effectively asking who he'd be friends with.
 * And then there's the scene from the end of the first game with grasping out at the door to Kingdom Hearts and yelling "KIIINNGGDOOOOM HEAAAAAAAAAAARRTTTTTSSS!!!!!" It's really narmy when Richard Epcar delivers it during a flashback in KHII.
 * What's right after that is even worse. After you beat him, he attempts to use Kingdom Hearts to activate another One-Winged Angel mode, and Sora tells him that Kingdom Hearts is actually light, and squeaks the word "....light?" The key change in the music from minor to major, coupled with the huge beams of sunshine, made this perhaps the funniest villain death ever, though arguably awesomely funny.
 * Mickey's voice in Re: CoM. Such horrible dubbing. I mean, King Mickey does have some pretty epic lines, just not when he says them.
 * This becomes a Funny Aneurysm Moment when you remember that Wayne Allwine died several months later, so perhaps his illness affected his voice.
 * And this Gem coming out of the mouth of Squall Leonhart, of all people: 'We may never meet again, but we'll never forget each other.' Really Squall?
 * Made even more ridiculous when in Chain of Memories, the very first level is Traverse Town, where you meet up with Squall again... who doesn't remember you. Granted, this is because it's not strictly Traverse Town and Castle Oblivion does weird stuff with memories, but adding this context to the already cheesy line just makes it funnier.
 * In the first game, just before the fight with Riku, Sora yells at to "give Riku back his heart!", to which Riku responds "But first you must give the princess back her heart", with no emphasis on the words "her" or "princess". It sounds as though he's responding to a completely different line, and sends the thoughtwaves from 'Wow, dramatic confrontation!' to 'Wait, wasn't Riku listening at all just there?'
 * He WASN'T. Riku (or rather ) isn't paying attention to Sora at all. Watch the scene carefully, and you'll notice Riku's lines run together. "Yes, and without her power, the Keyhole will remain incomplete. It is time she awakened... But first, you must give the princess back her heart." He was continuing his last line, not responding to Sora, which explains the lack of emphasis.
 * Also from the first game, we have the scene in which Sora reclaims the keyblade from Riku. This otherwise dramatic moment is pretty much ruined with Sora's unbelievably cheesy line, "I know now that I don't need the keyblade. I have an even better weapon: my heart!"
 * Right before Sora fights Riku, he shouts "There's no way I'm letting you take Kairi's heart!" It would have actually been okay if the dramatic music that had been playing the entire time didn't suddenly get cut.
 * In Re:Chain of Memories, Sora delivers the line "THAT'S what's in my heart!" to Vexen with the emphasis on Heart rather than THAT'S, making it sound ridiculous.
 * Larxene also once gives the line "I'M a bad guy", without putting the emphasis on I'M, and so she just ends up saying "I'm a bad guy."
 * In "Re:Chain of Memories", there's a scene where Sora goes into his random, hands-behind-head, head-tilted-forth pose, he looks directly into the camera and smiles while saying "I guess there's no way we'll forget our most important memories!" This is such an Anviliciously unsubtle way of indicating that yes, they will forget their most important memories that it's hilarious!
 * In Birth by Sleep, Terra's voice acting cause many Narm moments. One of the worst of these is when he's trying to encourage a weeping Cinderella to not give up. He sounds so bored and unconcerned about the situation that it goes against what he's trying to say.
 * In a more dialogue-Narm way, when he reaches the Keyblade Graveyard near the end of the game, he looks at the horizon for a while and then says: "What I do, I do for friendship". Even by Kingdom Hearts standards, that was seriously corny.
 * The Secret Ending of Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep with This is supposed to be emotional, and to some it is, but to others it just comes across as horrendously cheesy and over-the-top.
 * But to be fair, Aqua just learned that . She has reason to feel that way.
 * Anytime you enter a serious cutscene wielding a ridiculous Keyblade.
 * The end of Ven's final boss fight. The way paws at his weapon and sinks off screen makes him look like he was just too lazy/tired to keep fighting you.
 * Alternatively, it highlighted how pathetic he was in his final moments, completely failing to get what he wanted.
 * There's a scene in Kingdom Hearts II in which Okay, all right, fine. But then, when they meet up with Xemnas,, Donald's response? "It's the guy who's not Ansem!" Sure, it makes sense, but it just sounds so clunky and ridiculous that it completely ruins what was supposed to apparently be a dramatic reveal.
 * "TINKERBELL'S BEEN PIXIE-NAPPED!" Oh, Ventus...
 * The entirety of Atlantica in Kingdom Hearts 2. Especially "Swim This Way" and "A New Day Is Dawning" with lines like "Seeing how we made you grin just makes us want to twirl a fin" and "Come say hello: all my friends from every corner of the world!"
 * The most infamous line is probably, "A musical for everyone to have a lot of finny fun."
 * In the scene in Birth By Sleep where Ven, Ven delivers the line, "So you can keep me in your PRISON? That's your excuse, for KEEPING ME IMPRISONED HERE!!!!!!" The delivery is so ridiculous, coupled with the emphasis on prison, it ruins the otherwise dramatic scene.
 * In Birth By Sleep, when Ven defrosts his armor, it looks like he's peeing.
 * In a nutshell, Ven is about 80% narm.
 * Belle elbowing Xaldin. Seriously. She did it hard enough for him to release her, and for her to snatch the Rose back.
 * Probably the biggest amount of consistent Narm, (throughout the Re: Chain Of Memories, and with the most questionable dialogue,) was between Sora and Replica Riku. Repliku kept acting like some sort of heart broken lover in regards to Sora, using phrases like, "You never cared about me!" and "You're only ever worried about her!" Basically, it's a big Flanderization of Riku's Foe Yay with Sora in the first game. The pinnacle of this pure Narm was this little exchange.

"" I can't hand it over... This is the light that drives back the darkness. The key to everyone's smiles"."
 * Near the end of Lea and Isa's scene in Birth By Sleep, Lea says "get it memorized", but the way he says it is weird, almost like he's advertising some new sports drink or something.
 * In the trailer for Kingdom Hearts 3D, Sora has this to say when being told to hand over his Keyblade:


 * Pretty much any time a serious character says Goofy's name out loud, or when anyone says his name out loud in a serious scene.
