| | #REDIRECT [[Kingdom Hearts series (manga)]] |
| ==Story==
| |
| ===''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]''===
| |
| [[Image:KingdomHearts-manga cover.jpg|thumb|right|Cover of Kingdom Hearts manga.]]
| |
| The first series was based on ''Kingdom Hearts''.
| |
| It was released in 4 seperate books and was translated to English by [[Wikipedia:TOKYOPOP|TOKYOPOP]].
| |
| It, unlike the other mangas, was made to be read left to right, while the others was right to left.
| |
| | |
| ====Differences====
| |
| | |
| Many fans have noticed the differences between the games and the manga. Such of these are listed below:
| |
| | |
| *The story immediately starts off on Destiny Islands when [[Sora]], the main protagonist, wakes up from his "dream".
| |
| | |
| *The characters eventually start saying swear words.(Although the translated edition is 'clean'.)
| |
| | |
| *King Mickey's letter is written differently.
| |
| | |
| *We actually get to see a small scene on the balcony of Riku's house.
| |
| | |
| *The cloaked man's lines are slightly different.
| |
| | |
| *Sora seems to get all of his boss strategies from quotes out of various martial arts books.
| |
| | |
| *The [[Leon]]-[[Yuffie]] encounter is a lot shorter in the game compared to the [[Cid]] encounter (which in retrospect is very humorous).
| |
| | |
| *Sora meets up with [[Riku]] a lot earlier than in the game.
| |
| | |
| *The plot tells a bit more about the events of when the [[Radiant Garden]] was over run by Heartless nine years prior to the events of Kingdom Hearts.
| |
| | |
| * The worlds [[Deep Jungle]] and [[Halloween Town]] are absent in the story.
| |
| | |
| ===''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]''===
| |
| The second series was based on ''Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories''.
| |
| It was released in 2 chapters and translated to English by [[Wikipedia:TOKYOPOP|TOKYOPOP]].<br>
| |
| The ''Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories Manga'' has a much lighter tone than that of the game, as evidenced by many things, including the following:
| |
| *[[Sora]]'s first confrantation with [[Axel]] is a farce (as seen when Sora crashed to the wall with [[Donald]] and [[Goofy]]).
| |
| *[[Marluxia]] always has flowers around him.
| |
| *Marluxia and [[Larxene]] have a small party, where they drink soda and eat chicken.
| |
| *[[Vexen]] is a hotheaded buffoon working with [[Zexion]] and [[Lexaeus]].
| |
| *Zexion usually cooks, and Lexaus is seen doing many things, such as working mind benders and reading manga.
| |
| Unlike the Kingdom Hearts Manga, it read right to left per reader request.
| |
| | |
| ===''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''===
| |
| [[Image:KHII-Manga_Cover.jpg|thumb|right|Cover of Kingdom Hearts II manga.]]
| |
| The third series was based on ''Kingdom Hearts II''. This series will be told in 5 chapters. (Only volume one and two have been translated so far.) Kingdom Hearts II seems to take a more serious tone than KH:COM, but still has some humorous scenes.

| ====Differences====
| |
| | |
| *When [[Roxas]] first encounters the [[Dusk]] [[Nobodies]], they form a sort of cage around Roxas and carry him towards a portal. Just before they reach the portal, the [[Keyblade]] appears.
| |
| | |
| *The photo is with Roxas and his friends at the beach instead of in front of the gate by the Haunted Mansion.
| |
| | |
| *Dusks and [[Assassin|Assassins]] are seen floating around, giving [[Axel]] (who is standing on the roof of the Haunted Mansion in the "real" [[Twilight Town]]) a picture of Roxas. He then burns the picture and wonders where "the real thing is hiding."
| |
| | |
| *The battle with [[Twilight Thorn]] is depressingly short.
| |
| | |
| *Axel pins Roxas to the ground while telling him his place in [[Organization XIII]].
| |
| | |
| *Roxas falls off the Bell Tower while trying to catch his ice-cream that was sliding off of the stick (which usually says ''Winner!'' on it.)

| |
| | |

| |
| | |
| *Soras first encounter with Organization XIII is interrupted by [[Xigbar]] being blasted by a [[Claymore]].

| |
| | |

| |
| | |
| *Xigbar is the one responsible for Shan-Yu's army of Heartless.
| |
| | |
| *When Mushu encounters Sora he wonders why Sora dosnt recognize him. He then quikly reads through the Kingdom Hearts manga and expresses his anger about his scenes being cut.
| |
| | |
