The {{nihongo|'''Kingdom Key D'''|キングダムチェーンD|Kingudamu Chēn D|lit. "Kingdom Chain D"}} is a Keychain for Mickey's Keyblade which appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', and ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]''. It is a Keyblade of the [[Realm of Darkness]] which the King obtained to mirror Sora's Keyblade from the [[Realm of Light]].<ref>'''''[[Director's Secret Report XIII]]''''', p. 28; '''Tetsuya Nomura''': "In order to work, the door needs to be closed from both the Dark side and the Light side and both a Dark and Light realm Keyblade are needed. The King needed a Keyblade opposite from the realm of Light Keyblade that Sora had, so he went to the realm of Darkness to obtain one."</ref> In ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', it can be upgraded to the '''Kingdom Key D+''', the '''Kingdom Key D++''', and the '''Kingdom Key DΩ'''. Some Square Enix merchandise has called it ''Darkside'' or ''Dark-side''.<!--source-->

"Kingdom Chain Darkside"}}, is the default form of [[King Mickey]]'s second [[Keyblade]], introduced in  ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}''. It is a Keyblade of the [[Realm of Darkness]] and the dark counterpart of [[Kingdom Key|Sora's Keyblade]] from the [[Realm of Light]].<ref>'''''[[Director's Secret Report XIII]]''''', p. 28; '''Tetsuya Nomura''': "In order to work, the door needs to be closed from both the Dark side and the Light side and both a Dark and Light realm Keyblade are needed.

The Kingdom Key D was originally seen with Mickey in the final scene of ''Kingdom Hearts'', and appears throughout ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'', ''Kingdom Hearts II'', and ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'' as King Mickey's Keyblade. Before the events of ''Kingdom Hearts'', when he was an apprentice of Master [[Yen Sid]], King Mickey instead wielded the [[Star Seeker]] Keyblade.

The Kingdom Key D also appears in the secret video [[The Gathering]], where [[Aqua]] pulls it from the ground at [[Keyblade Graveyard]].
 
==Development==
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]'', the {{nihongo|"[[Removed content#Lightseeker|Lightseeker]]"|ライトシーカー|Raitoshīkā}} was originally intended to be a [[Keychain]] for [[Ventus]], and although it is not available in the final game, the data for the Keyblade's icon and stats remains within the game's code. If equipped through the use of a cheating device, it grants Ventus +3 Strength and +2 Magic. The Keyblade's model is present in gameplay when equipped in the original Japanese release of ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'', but the model is removed in later releases of the game.
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]'', the Kingdom Key D is listed as one of [[Riku]]'s [[Keyblade]]s in the game files, though it is unusable in normal gameplay. Like every other equippable Keyblade in the game, it changes appearance when visiting [[The Grid]], taking on a black, grey, and light blue coloration.
 
==Story==
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
[[Mickey]] enters the Realm of Darkness in search of the dark counterpart of Sora's [[Kingdom Key]] in order to help [[Sora]] seal the [[Door to Darkness]]. After teaming up with [[Aqua]], Mickey realizes that since Sora acquired his Keyblade in the [[Destiny Islands]], its counterpart has to be located in the remains of the Islands. Eventually, Mickey finds the Kingdom Key D behind a door<!--does secret place door have a name?--> in the [[Depths of Darkness]],{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-}} then uses it to slay a troop of encroaching [[Darkside]]s and seal the Door to Darkness.
 
===''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days''===
Mickey briefly brandishes the Kingdom Key D when he encounters [[Riku]] in [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness|Ansem's]] form, but dispels it when Riku reverts to normal.
 
===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
Upon Sora's awakening, Mickey continues to wield the Kingdom Key D on his mission to restore the [[light]]. Upon [[Xemnas]]'s defeat, Mickey does not use the Kingdom Key D again for some time, switching back to the Star Seeker.
 
===''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance''===
Upon learning that [[Real Organization XIII|Xehanort's Organization XIII]] would soon pose a threat, Mickey resumes wielding the Kingdom Key D. He uses it to cast [[Stop]]za on the Real Organization XIII.
 
===''Kingdom Hearts III''===
It is revealed that because the Kingdom Key D comes from the Realm of Darkness, Mickey can use it to open doors between the light and dark realms.
 
When Riku and Mickey enter the Realm of Darkness to search for Aqua, they are attacked by a [[Demon Tower]], which damages the Kingdom Key D and snaps Riku's [[Way to the Dawn]] in half. Retreating to the [[Mysterious Tower]], they inform [[Yen Sid]] of what happened to their Keyblades, who then helps power up the Kingdom Key D and get a new Keyblade for Riku. This results in the fusion of the Kingdom Key D and Star Seeker, creating the [[Star Cluster]].


==Design==
==Design==
The Kingdom Key D is a mirror of the Kingdom Key, and this purpose is reflected in its coloration - where Sora's Kingdom Key has a silver blade and Keychain and a golden guard, Mickey's has the opposite color scheme. Even the rainguard, which is blue on Sora's Kingdom Key, is red on Mickey's, although both Keyblades possess a dark-colored handle.

==Gameplay==
In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', the Kingdom Key D is used whenever Sora faints during a boss battle and King Mickey enters play. However, it lacks a finishing move, so King Mickey is unable to finish off any of these bosses; he must instead revive Sora in order for the boss to be defeated.
 
In ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'' [[Mission Mode]], the Kingdom Key D is King Mickey's default Keyblade, and does not require gears to be equipped. The ground combo consists of a diagonal upward slash from the right leg, followed by the same slash from the left leg, and finishes with a 360° spinning slash. The aerial combo is exactly the same as when he uses the Star Seeker Keyblade, consisting of a horizontal slash to the right finishing with a vertical slash upward, followed by the upward slash leading into a 360° spin with the Keyblade held above the King's head, and ends with a series of three thrusts as he descends.
 
==Other appearances==
===Another side, Another story...===
The Kingdom Key D appears in the secret movie "[[Another side, Another story...]]", where it is wielded by Mickey during his brief appearance.
 
===The Gathering===
The Kingdom Key D also appears in the secret movie "[[The Gathering]]", where it is pulled from the ground by [[Aqua]] at the [[Keyblade Graveyard]].
 
===''Face My Fears''===
The [[:File:Face My Fears Art.png|EP cover art]] for "''[[Face My Fears]]''" depicts Utada Hikaru wielding the Kingdom Key D in their right hand.
 
===''The Wonderful Spring of Mickey Mouse''===
The Kingdom Key D appears amongst the objects in Mickey's house.<ref>[https://twitter.com/mbrleigh/status/1507384942056992771 Amber Leigh on Twitter: "''I’d like to thank the Mickey Mouse crew for whoever let me get away with this, happy almost 20th anniversary KH ❤️''"]</ref>

==Trivia==
<gallery>
*While this Keyblade can be used in ''Kingdom Hearts II'' if Sora faints during certain boss fights and the player chooses to use King Mickey, it lacks a finishing move, so King Mickey is unable to defeat any of these bosses.
