My thoughts on…
The Title: Kingdom Hearts
I have very mixed feelings about this.
On the one hand, I think it's very…unexplained.
Throughout the game, it's explained that Kingdom Hearts is the place where lost Hearts go when they're lost. They all call the moon Kingdom Hearts. Saix worships Kingdom Hearts, (which I think is not very healthy) and Xemnas keeps begging Kingdom Hearts to give their Hearts back (also not healthy). They say that Kingdom Hearts is the door to everlasting Darkness, but they also say that it's the door to brilliant Light.
Quite frankly, I'm confused as HECK.
They need to pick a story, and stick to it! All the Keybladers, Nobodies, Heartless, and other characters need to hold a staff meeting, order some coffee and doughnuts, and all vote on what Kingdom Hearts is, and what they're going to tell people! Seriously! My brain hurts here!
BUT…on the other hand, I think it's very, very clever.
It's a complex title. Kingdom of Hearts…it makes you wonder what deeper meaning it can hold. Afterall, this game is very deep, convoluted, and unpredictable. It keeps up guessing (which I absolutely love) and it holds our attention. The lack of clarity the game offers us makes us wonder what else is in store for us, and what else we'll learn with the games to come.
And best of all, it promises us more games in the future to play ;)

Tonight, I decided to do a 'MTO' drabble. I haven't done one in a while, so I figured today's as good a day as any. :3
