Kingdom Hearts fans have shared some of the worst quotes from the series, including hard hitters like “It was undeniable proof that we totally owned you lamers”, and “SUFFER”.
If there’s one thing that’s universally known about Kingdom Hearts, it’s that the story can be a little… messy. From the complicated subplots that make playing every unnumbered title a necessity to introducing elements like time travel and somehow cheating death, Kingdom Hearts can be a challenge to follow on the best of days. To make matters worse, Kingdom Hearts has some pretty notoriously creepy, weird, and downright bad quotes that fans eagerly jump at the chance to roast.
Over on the Kingdom Hearts subreddit, Redditor SuperLegenda started the conversation by asking everyone which lines in the series they outright dislike. As Kingdom Hearts fans ourselves, we enjoy lovingly poking fun at the series and its massive ups and downs at any given moment, meaning the thread was quickly filled with some of the worst and weirdest quotes Kingdom Hearts has to offer.
One of the most popular comments on the thread shares a set of quotes as the worst in the series – every time Riku mentions his weird sense of smell. For those who don’t remember, Re:Chain of Memories’ Riku storyline had him mention several times that he could smell darkness and that he could smell the difference between Kairi and Namine. This leads to such terrible lines as “Darkness, it is the smell of darkness”.
Another subject that is complained about a lot in the thread is the language used in Deep Jungle, the world based on Tarzan in the first Kingdom Hearts. The language barrier between humans and gorillas is the main cause of the problem here, with Jane enthusiastically uttering the phrase “Now I’ve got it, eeee ooooh, oooh oooh ah means heart,” as if it makes any sense at all. Other great lines include “Sora, go go” and “This place, this place.”
However, we’ve only scratched the surface of the terrifying content here, folks. Some other common choices that pop up in the thread represent some of the weirdest lines in the series, like Seifer saying “It was undeniable proof that we totally owned you lames” like the 2005 relic he is, and Riku Replica confusing the world with “I am me,” he says.
By my count, the worst line in Kingdom Hearts is Roxas’ infamous “Who else do I want to eat ice cream with?” speech to Xion as she lies dying in his arms. I get that eating ice cream was Roxas’ idea of ​​friendship, so he’s basically asking who else is going to be his friend, but it comes off really awkward and makes one of the series’ most emotional moments a little embarrassing. I still cry.
The funniest thing about Kingdom Hearts is that some of the quotes shared here actually came up in a previous Reddit conversation asking fans what their favorite voice lines were. It just goes to show that sometimes Kingdom Hearts’ scariest moments are the series at its absolute best.
