Oblivion Chaos is a Kingdom Hearts sprite comic by Zenith that began on June 8, 2006 and is still running. The comic ostensibly centers on Zexion and Lexaeus during the time of Chain of Memories hanging around Castle Oblivion; eventually, a plot began to form which lead to a bit of Cerebus Syndrome as well as a bad case of Kudzu Plot. While it was still considered okay, the plot didn't really make any sense, and Plot Holes had to be filled in constantly.

Then in October 2009, a comic was posted that apparently would lead to a Retool; this finally occurred on July 10, 2010. Response to the Retool has so far been positive.

The plot (pre-Retool) was a bit of a Mind Screw, but here is a brief summary: Marluxia was plotting something with Luxord, Larxene, and Demyx; Sora was getting lost; Riku was doing...something...and Vexen kidnapped Larxene, or something, and Zexion, Lexaeus, and Axel all went to rescue her, killing Saix along the way. Also, Shadow the Hedgehog got involved.

It was all very confusing. There were a few attempts to streamline the plot, but these mostly failed.

Not enough has been seen post-Retool to form any real opinions on it.

Also infamous for its epic Schedule Slips.

Tropes used in Oblivion Chaos include:
