A series of [[Action RPG]] games, co-produced by [[Square Soft]] (now Square Enix) and [[Disney]], directed by ''[[Final Fantasy]]'' character designer [[Tetsuya Nomura]], and starring characters from both companies.
Line 103 ⟶ 105:
* [[The War Sequence]] (''KH2'')

{{tropelist|This series as a whole provides examples of:}}
* [[Aborted Arc]]: One of the main concepts of the first game was that Sora, Donald, and Goofy cannot interfere with the affairs of other worlds, since they're outsiders. This hasn't been brought up again since the first game and is mostly ignored now. Justified through, since most of the problems they fix in the different worlds are caused by other people meddling, so you could say they're fixing what was put wrong.
** ''Birth By Sleep'' adds on that Keyblade wielders are free to travel between worlds, but are not to tell their inhabitants about the existences of worlds besides their own. However by the time of ''Kingdom Hearts'' worlds are being destroyed left and right and their inhabitants are taking refuge in Traverse Town, so this isn't an issue for Sora. Even in ''Birth By Sleep's'' timeframe though, other characters are already aware of other worlds and are implied to travel between them.
Line 111 ⟶ 113:
** Mulan, Ariel, and Queen Minnie (in the one stage she fights with you) from the Disney cast. Tifa and Yuffie from the Final Fantasy cast.
** {{spoiler|1=Kairi also starts showing signs of this in KH2 once she gets a Keyblade, but at this point she's still strictly a beginner.}}
* [[Actor Allusion]]: It may be unintentional, but Ansem, voiced by [[Christopher Lee]], is often referred to as Ansem the Wise. [[The Lord of the Rings|Saruman]], who was also played by [[Christopher Lee]], is often referred to as Saruman the Wise in the book and films.
* [[Adorably Precocious Child]]: Ienzo, who follows around his mentor in an oversized labcoat, and Young Riku, who is abnormally serious and mature for his tender years. Both are definitely played for cute.
* [[Aerith and Bob]]: You've got Sora, Kairi and Riku (distinctly Japanese names), amongst mainly English or more standard names (and the trio of Birth By Sleep have Latin names). In some cases it's understandable, though, such as with some Disney villains or Organization XIII.
