Your ultimate source for Kingdom Hearts media, Kingdom Hearts news. Kingdom Hearts discussion, cutscenes, cheats, and more!

Hi guys, Paw here saying bonjour, hello, welcome!
I need a favour. Well less of a favour and more an ‘obligation’ where you have to answer my questions! : D

So here, we on KHV (only me really, I care!) want your feedback on some of the podcasts themes and ideas that will help us plan and execute better Podcasts, as well as help us get it into a better direction. A direction YOU all want and agree with! Well… as best we can, honestly!
So if you can take a few minutes to answer the handful of questions below I would LOVE YOU FOREVER!

Also, the more people who feedback, the better. Please describe your thoughts and opinions as best you can.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here there are:

• Chilled Podcasts:
Relaxed general topic podcasts where we can talk about anything we want, go off topic all we want. We have done two and received lots of positive feedback. As such we’ll try and continue them. Agree or disagree?
Name change? - Should we change the name of them to make it more official as a thing we're gonna keep up? Any ideas? Or do you like it as is?
Topic suggestions - we need basic topic starters to talk about, like Movies, TV series, Video Games, Kingdom Hearts, etc. Anything you think would be good topics or would be interested in hearing would be great! List em here.

• KH series Vs KHV centred podcast?:
Should we focus on the community whilst KH news is thin? If so, ideas on what? We have Chilled Pods, but anything else?

• Summer Podcasts:
Good or bad? Lots of interest last year, but not a lot of organising (we only got a few podcasts in). Should we continue with them this year? Would you like a volunteer staff member in podcasts to help?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks for the help guys. As a treat for the assistance, we have a new, special podcast coming to you soon, so stay tuned and stay sexy people! ; D

Hello, users of KH-Vids. I hope the wait hasn't been too painful for you -- but do not fret any longer, for I, the Queen of Hearts, am now here! So stop waiting around and hurry to Wonderland to participate in my party, or it's OFF WITH YOUR HEAD!

Now, you've no reason to dawdle further! Stop wasting time and go to my party right now!
KHV's Top 10 Pairings
KHV's Top 10
~Pairings~
The Kingdom Hearts series has shown the bond of friendship and the power it has on the strength of people's hearts. In some instances there are 2 people that just go extremely well together. This could be by the way they act around each other or perhaps just that fanfiction writer's dream that they may end up together romantically. This list tellies what member's of KHV find as the most favored pairings of the Kingdom Hearts cast.

#10) Sora x Riku
Votes: 4
Average Ranking: 5.0
The best friend rivalry is a common trope amongst the media world. at the beginning, Riku was always seen as Sora's superior, but as time passed... he still kind of proved himself as Sora's superior. They have have begun working against each other, But their friendship has survived many trials including going into the realm of darkness and back, being manipulated and even taken over by a heartless. This classic duo continues to fight alongside one another and keep their friendship alive.​

#9) Riku x Naminé
Votes: 4
Average Ranking: 3.0
Two people who worked together with a common goal of restoring Sora's broken memories. While they had no personal interest in eachother, they formed some form of understanding to one another. When ordered to eliminate Namine, Riku refused and appreciate her value and ability as a person enough to call her a "Wonder." Riku trusts her and Namine believes that he can solve his own problems. A very understanding pair.​

#8) Riku x Kairi
Votes: 5
Average Ranking: 7.8
Lugging her unconscious body around in the first game, Riku had the same intention as Sora in protecting Kairi. The only difference being that Riku was not afraid to go through very cautionary measures which led to a very antagonistic presence against Sora. His admiration for Kairi is later diminished as her heart is revealed to be with Sora's. Even still, he ensures that Sora take care of her if he cannot.

#7) Riku x Xion
Votes: 5
Average Ranking: 6.4
Looking very close to Kairi, Riku's sympathy to a character he is meant to destroy is all the more interesting. As Xion is a part of Sora's memories, he needs to bring Xion with him in order to help Sora awaken. When asked if he hated her for taking his friend away, Riku simply responded that he was sad. He gives her the possibility of making up her own mind on the decision that's right for everyone and never confronts he afterwords.​

#6) Aqua x Terra
Votes: 6
Average Ranking: 5.0
During most of Birth by Sleep, Aqua had a tendency of bringing of Terra in the back of her mind. Of Terra, Ventus and Aqua, it's Aqua who had the most struggle between the bond with her friends and the duties Master Eraqus passed onto her. Both pupils ended up going on different paths while still keeping a strong moral code to protecting their friends. Sadly in the end, it was Aqua who sacrificed herself to keep Terra out of the realm of darkness, only to have him controlled by Master Xehanort.​

#5) Axel x Roxas
Votes: 6
Average Ranking: 4.5
Most to all of their friendship was seen atop that clocktower in Twilight Town. What began as being a part of a heart hungry organization, led to Roxas' eventual betrayal of the organization. Choosing to be with his close companion, Axel soon followed in his leaving of the group in order to be with his best friend. And while they are nobodies, Axel has said that Roxas "made him feel like he had a heart."​

#4) King Mickey x Queen Minnie
Votes: 7
Average Ranking: 6.0
The only Disney couple to make this list. A couple that was established in the 1920's Mickey and Minnie are a timeless couple that haven't actually shared many moments together in the Kingdom Hearts series. The only moment I can recall them being together is in the end credits of Kingdom Hearts 2. (thus the blurred zoom in shot used as the visual) Nonetheless, their reunion is all the more to celebrate the love these two share for one another​

#3) Roxas x Xion
Votes: 7
Average Ranking: 4.1
How would you feel if you ended up destroying one of your best friends, only to lose the memory of them afterwords? Roxas and Xion were a cute pair of keybladers in the Organization, both being used as "tools" to advance their needs. Knowing she needed to help complete Sora's memories, she chose Roxas as her executioner and chose her fate that she deemed would be best for everyone. Cannot see these two being together romantically as well... they're basically the same person.​

#2) Roxas x Naminé
Votes: 11
Average Ranking: 4.1
As being nobodies of Sora and Kairi, their chemistry for each other is similar to their somebody counterparts. Being the hollow hearted beings they are, they felt that they would fade into darkness. But so long as Sora and Kairi were together, then Roxas and Namine would be as well.​

#1) Sora x Kairi
Votes: 12
Average Ranking: 2.4
Honestly, I cannot say I'm surprised. This is one of those relationships that people just assume that they will end up together, and I probably agree with them. The moments these 2 have shared are among some of the more touching in the series, often found at the end of the console games. Cave paintings, papou fruit, those embraced reunited moments, take your pick on why these two are meant to end up together.​

Community Oh No... Another Tea Party!?
Hey everyone! The staff has an urgent announcement for you all today --

As you know, last year we were visited by the Queen of Hearts, who took over the site to host her tea party for Valentine's Day! This year, we thought we were in the clear... But we have just received a letter from her again! It reads as follows:

So as you can see, it seems as though she is planning another visit this year! And like last year, we need your help to meet her demands:

If you would like to participate in the Queen's Tea Party this year, please RSVP (sign up) below. The Queen is adamant about getting the list to her right away, so RSVPs will be open through Sunday evening. DO NOT sign up with a partner this year, but we strongly recommend signing up alongside friends in case you want/need a partner at any time during the event!

Again, sign ups will close by the end of Sunday. If you do not sign up in time to participate in the party events, there will be a general thread where you can enjoy tea and crumpets with the guests... If the Queen hasn't beheaded you for failing to RSVP!

Hoping that she doesn't threaten us if things don't go her way this year,
- The KH-Vids.net Staff
