Line 1:
{{
* One particular striking example in ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' is a scene in the second game involving Kairi and Namine {{spoiler|escaping from the Nobodies' Lair in The World That Never Was.}} 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 [http://youtube.com/watch?v=pY30kR3bQ4U this] is the worst.
Line 9:
** They really just needed an excuse for Mickey to [[Let's Get Dangerous|get dangerous]].
** The [[Noodle Incident]] Donald brings up makes it even worse.
{{quote|
* Pickaxe guns. That is all.
** Aren't they just crossbows?
** Crossbows with ''[[Bowdlerization|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 {{spoiler|DYING}}, 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. {{spoiler|The last thing he says to Xion is 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 {{spoiler|Xion}} will tell him.
*** To be fair, Roxas has spent most of his {{spoiler|one-year life}} 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 {{spoiler|Ansem}} grasping out at the door to Kingdom Hearts and yelling "KIIINNGGDOOOOM HEAAAAAAAAAAARRTTTTTSSS!!!!!" It's ''really'' narmy when [[Flashback with the Other Darrin|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 [[Shut UP, Hannibal|Sora tells him that Kingdom Hearts is actually light]], and {{spoiler|Ansem}} '''''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 [[Narm Charm|awesomely funny.]]
* Mickey's voice in Re: [[
** 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.
Line 30:
* 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 [[Captain Obvious|"I'm]] [[Card-Carrying Villain|a]] [[Obviously Evil|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 [[Anvilicious|Anviliciously]] unsubtle way of indicating that yes, they '''will''' forget their most important memories that it's hilarious!
* In ''Birth by Sleep'', Terra's [[Dull Surprise|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 [[The Power of Friendship|friendship]]". Even by Kingdom Hearts standards, that was seriously corny.
* The Secret Ending of ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep]]'' with {{spoiler|everyone basically ''praying'' to Sora, who is now a very literal [[The Messiah|messiah figure]]. Aqua even cries just hearing his name said.}} 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 {{spoiler|the boy she had once asked to keep his friend safe had gone above and beyond, keeping all worlds safe}}. She has reason to feel that way.
* Anytime you enter a serious cutscene wielding a ridiculous Keyblade.
Line 45:
* 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.

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.) }}
* 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:
{{quote|
* 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.
