What Happens in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days (2009)? with Kelly Nicole

from Simple and Clean: A Kingdom Hearts Podcast

Streamer & comedian Kelly Nicole joins us on top of the Twilight Town clocktower to recap the mind-bending mundanity of Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days! As if Roxas’s story in Kingdom Hearts 2 wasn’t tragic enough, 358/2 Days turns back the clock to show us how Roxas came to be part of Organization XIII in the first place, and what made him decide to leave them behind. When you’re killing the same creatures day in and day out, being an evil minion can be pretty mind-numbing! Especially when your thoughts and memories might be overflowing into a spare receptacle your bosses happen to have lying around. But Roxas, Axel & Xion truly learn how to make their downtimes special, meeting up every day atop the clocktower to eat their sea-salt ice cream. And so, as Naminé pieces the missing parts of the sleeping Sora back together and their continued existences are challenged, they learn to fight, not for a grand cosmic cause, but simply for the right to be.Credits- Created & hosted by: Mischa Stanton & Mayanna Berrin- Guest: Kelly Nicole- Music: “Sunset Dew” by Lupus Nocte- A member of  Multitude- Support us on PatreonAbout UsSimple and Clean is a show where hosts Mischa Stanton and Mayanna Berrin (and friends) talk about Kingdom Hearts, a little video game franchise about really big feelings. We attempt to unravel how this deceptively expansive game series has touched an entire generation of deeply earnest weirdos - and along the way, we may realize that what we’re talking about might not be just a video game, but a whole lot more. Never heard of Kingdom Hearts? That’s okay! We’re here to break it down for you, explain why we love it, and hopefully to convince you that this weird little story deserves a place in your heart. Join us as we discuss the plot, characters, world building, music, fashion, fanbase, and societal impact of a thing that by all means, probably shouldn’t even exist.
