History Fridge / KingdomHeartsII

* Why did Sora consider tweeting with Tron's programming to allow him to sing and dance? He's just recently taken part in a musical in [[Franchise/TheLittleMermaid Atlantica]], and was still in the mood to sing! In gameplay, "A New Day Is Dawning" is unlocked around the same time as the final visit to Space Paranoids[[note]]provided that the player follows the level difficulties and completes the [[Franchise/TheLionKing Pride Lands]] last[[/note]], so in canon, Sora was only just getting over the musical when he fought the MCP.

*** ...[[IncrediblyLamePun Chain of Memories]]?

** Holy...! [[IncrediblyLamePun Chain of Brilliance!]] Xemnas went out of his way to [[spoiler:extract Sora's heart because the part of him still influenced by Terra had finally found his "friend" he had been searching for for years: Ven, whose heart was inside of Sora's!]] - [[Tropers/X2X X2X]]

* FridgeBrilliance: According to Wiki/TheOtherWiki, Axel controls the Assassin nobodies. These nobodies will sometimes blow themselves up in a kamikaze attack rather than allow you to collect their experience. What does Axel do toward the end of the game...?

* I was rewatching someone's battle with Scar, and I wondered: why was Scar using Thunder and Fire magic? Then I realized, what is going on in the background during the FinalBattle in ''WesternAnimation/{{The Lion King|1994}}''? A raging inferno started by a stray lightning bolt!

* Remember Axel's line about "Being turned into a Dusk", something he fears? Well... obviously he's seen it happen before, or at least ''heard'' of it. (Or had it threatened) Given that we learn from ''VideoGame/KingdomHearts3DDreamDropDistance'' that the intent was to put a copy of Xehanort's heart into their bodies, and ''then'' in ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsIII'' that every member of the original Organization was chosen for a reason [[spoiler: the first six for being apprentices, seven and eight for potential, and nine through thirteen because they were keyblade wielders]]. They weren't just the only ones strong enough to retain their original forms... they were just the only ones ''lucky'' enough - anyone ''else'' would be turned into a Dusk or another Nobody.

** Addictionally, his Heartless form can be considered a Pureblood, but the Groundshaker is an Emblem Heartless. Then I remembered that 1) Organization XIII is forcing Sora to fight powerful Heartless so that they may steal the freed hearts. and 2) Xehanort created the Emblem Heartless and marked them. It's possible that Xemnas, Xehanort's Nobody, "saved" Scar's Heartless and turned it into a powerful Emblem, so that he'd free lots of hearts when slain by Sora.

* Why can Mickey fight certain bosses but not finish them off? Considering how Riku insisted on fighting Ansem alone in ''COM'' under the belief that he [[ThisIsSomethingHesGotToDoHimself had to conquer his darkness by himself]] and ultimately came out stronger for it, he likely recognizes that Sora wouldn't get any better at fighting if Mickey took down every opponent he faced. It may also justify why Mickey only appears for specific bosses and not generic Heartless/Nobody mobs to begin with; bosses are [[GodzillaThreshold just powerful enough]] to justify lending a helping hand for.

** Simba's conflicted nature and fears would only be amplified if he remembered friends he had forgotten suddenly. Hard to be all 'Hakuma Matatta' when you have that sort of worry hanging over your head.

*** Well, for those worried about Sora becoming less compassionate, he seems to have [[CharacterRerailment done a 180]] in ''[[VideoGame/KingdomHearts3DDreamDropDistance Dream Drop Distance]]'', [[spoiler: sympathising with Roxas and outright telling him that he deserves to be his own person]]. It helps that at this point, he knows Riku and Kairi are okay, so he's a lot less stressed out in general.

* Oogie died in the first game, but his brain-bug escaped. He's brought back and killed here, and Donald crushes his brain-bug. [[IronicEcho You can say]] [[MythologyGag he must]] [[WesternAnimation/ANightmareBeforeChristmas be double-dead.]]

* The footprints that Sora follows from Santa's workshop back to Halloween Town look like they were made by bare feet, [[LampshadeHanging which Goofy comments on]]. It's confusing, as Lock Shock and Barrell are all clearly wearing shoes. But the next time we see them, they're in their walking bathtub. A close examination shows that it has toes. Those were the bathtub's footprints.
