[NEW] KINGDOM HEARTS TIMELINE - Episode 09: The Replacement

— Explaining the Kingdom Hearts Timeline project — As many of you already know, the Kingdom Hearts Timeline project started back in April 2018 as a way to prepare all of us for the release of Kingdom Hearts 3. What is the Timeline project? Basically, you'll see all of the story events as they chronologically happen. Which is seemingly easy to do, but...if you're familiar with Kingdom Hearts, then you do know the series is so full of flashbacks, callbacks and retcons, that it's extremely easy to lose track of them. I always like to think of the Timeline as an experiment. I wasn’t sure if it could be a welcome one but, somehow, it was so well received that it exceeded my expectations. The original Timeline was just a way to re-live all of the Kingdom Hearts titles leading to KH3, in a different, yet familiar way. I never had plans to go back to it, as I was fully aware of all the flashbacks and callbacks that could be added in the future titles. I don’t really like the idea of uploading new, fixed episodes every now and then—it would just confuse all of you (and, more than anyone, myself!) Still, the requests and messages I received in the past few years made me reconsider my plans. More than anything, I did plan to complete the KHUX saga, as it was the only incomplete title when KH3 came out. So here we are! Now that KHUX ended I have everything at my disposal for making the ultimate, complete chronological version of this title. I can’t stress enough the purpose of this project—this doesn’t want to be the best or the perfect way of experiencing the Kingdom Hearts saga. All of the titles should be played following their release dates. The Timeline is simply an alternate way of experiencing the story we already know and only players who already played the games should watch it. New players would be spoiled about some plot points, so be warned. This project gives you a different perspective on specific events, and the adding of new musics, flashbacks, callbacks and secret reports, makes the whole experience even more unique and immersive. Some of the incredible KHUX renders you see in these thumbnails are made by George PG: make sure to follow him on Twitter! twitter.com/george_p_g I’ll leave some basic Q&A down here related to the future of the Timeline: 1) Q: Will you be uploading all of the episodes from the scratch? A: No. I’ll just reupload the episodes containing flashbacks/callbacks that we got to see after the release of KH3. For instance, the beginning of Birth by Sleep will be reuploaded since I’ll have to add the dialogue between Master Xehanort and Vanitas at the Land of Departure, occurring in Dark Road. 2) Q: Will the old episodes be deleted? A: No. All of the episodes will stay, but the new ones will have the text “NEW” in the thumbnail and in the video title. The new episodes will replace the old ones in the Timeline playlist in my channel. 3) Q: Will you be making KH3 as well? A: Yes, but my main goal was completing both KHUX and Dark Road. I do have some plans for KH3 but I’m considering of using the PC version of it, so I can disable the music through mods and do some…special stuff. If you are a KH3 modder/you know someone who could help me, please message me on Twitter! 4) Q: So all of the 123 episodes list will be messed up? A: No. KHUX will still finish on Episode 11 like I planned years ago. Dark Road will start on Episode 12. Only the beginning of Birth by Sleep might have a small change of numbers in the playlist. 5) Q: Why did you put Missing-Link in the intro alongside the other titles? A: Because...never say never. There's no way I can put the whole story of Missing-Link in the Timeline, not in the near future. That game's story might last some years, like it happened with KHUX. However, I did want to include it in the panels titles screen, so we finally have a complete timeline screen, for once.

This part of the series has cemented Ven as among the most tragic characters in the series as him being turned into an accomplice to Strelitzia’s murder and also currently being among the last remaining Keyblade wielders from the Age of Fairy Tales

The Lauriam Strelitzia scene makes me cry , please Nomura let them reunite in KH4

29:44 Reminder that the Nightmare Cybug escaped through a Corridor of Darkness, which means that thing is still around somewhere. Hope we get to fight it again some day.

Ack using the Unversed theme for the Darkling fight, I can't!! It's such a good hint to the fact that (SPOILERS) the Darklings are looking for Ven, especially since the Unversed come from Vanitas--who was born from the Darkness which is currently possessing Ven.

I'm looking forward to see what they do with Ventus and Lauriam in the Lost Master Arc. Imagine if we see Lauriam and Elrena interacting with the Wayfinder trio and Kairi.

I miss playing this game so much, feeling nostalgic to see these scenes once more. I remember waiting for the episodes of the timeline to come out... thanks for existing Everglow, for making life & KH better may your heart be your guiding key

Poor Ventus. To have been possessed by Darkness to kill Strelitzia and replace her as a Union Leader.

I’m not sure when the Game Central Station arc was written in relation to Kingdom Hearts 3, but both integrated the Disney world with the overarching story very well. I hope we see more of this in Kingdom Hearts 4!

Man, I forgot that Maleficent absolutely wrecked Lauriam. We need more reminders of how powerful she can be. Also I'll never get over the fact that we get a King Candy Cybug boss fight and it's in the freaking mobile game. Imagine how cool it would've looked in Kingdom Hearts 3.

I get so sad on your non upload days now haa, thank you for redoing this series!! I didnt realize how much I wanted to watch it again, this series makes me so at home!

26:53 this was one of my favorite parts of wreck-it ralph: king candy kept trying to get away from the beacon by his cy-bug behavior kept making him fly towards it

I'm Glad You Have the Same Idea as Me with a Version of Eye of the Storm for King Candy 😄23:48

Thank you so much for this series, I’m glad I can finally understand and know the mobile game story! Please keep going ! I’m way to excited for the next one

Loving the new episode everglow you put a lot of effort into these and I look forward to seeing the next one

bro why my boy ventus can't catch a break! not but for real I hope we get a back story or a least something because as of right now ventus and his darkness (vanitas?) hold like the biggest mystery as of right now.

Can't wait to see Strelitzia again. Anyway, I wonder who is going to reach Maleficent, since she is a waypoint...

Very nice.

I WILL carry you one day......those fights in CoM and ReCoM are hitting close to home now......

This is getting really good . Especially knowing more about Ven’s past , but my question is how did he survive and stayed a teenager all those years ago ? Also has that dark thing been a Xehanort Maleficent’s been talking to ?
