[[Ansem]] is the name taken by several beings in the [[Kingdom Hearts series]].  The name originated from a researcher whose experiments into the [[darkness]] of the [[heart]] led to the release of [[Heartless]] onto the [[world]]s.
The name '''Ansem''' is used to refer to several different characters in the ''Kingdom Hearts'' series:
 
==Kingdom Hearts==
In [[Kingdom Hearts]], Ansem was the name given to a researcher, identified as [[Ansem the Wise]], who was an old friend of [[King Mickey]].  [[Sora]] and his companions [[Donald]] and [[Goofy]], both subjects of the King, collected the [[Ansem Reports]] in search for knowledge of the [[Heartless]] in order to devise a way to stop them.  Sora also sought to find his friends [[Kairi]] and [[Riku]], who had been seperated from him during the storm on [[Destiny Islands]].  Sora and his companions, in questing to stop the spread of the Heartless, squared off with [[Maleficent]] and her allies, who sought to use the Heartless to gain power over the worlds.
 
Riku, seeking a way to restore Kairi's lost heart to her, found himself on opposing sides with Sora and began to delve into the power of darkness.  He faced off against Sora at [[Hollow Bastion]], managing to weaken Sora's resolve to take the [[Keyblade]] from him (since the keyblade resided with the person with the strongest heart).  Sora later caught up with him, and with renewed resolve, was able to claim the [[Keyblade]] again, and defeated Riku in a small scuffle.  After fleeing from Sora, Riku was approached by a cloaked being, and offered extraordinary dark power, as well as a keyblade of his own.  Riku accepted and was possessed by the entity, and given a keyblade with the ability to unlock people's hearts.  After [[Maleficent]] was vanquished by Sora and his party, Riku and Sora squared off in front of the [[Door to Darkness]] for control of Kairi's heart.  Despite the dark power available to him, Riku lost to Sora once more, and the dark being controlling him revealed itself as ''Ansem, Seeker of Darkness.''
 
Some time later, Sora and his friends confronted Ansem at the [[End of the World]], where he abandoned Riku's form and fought them with the aid of a dark [[Guardian]].  Ansem was once again defeated and transformed himself and his guardian into a living ship swarming with Heartless.  When even this was not enough to overcome Sora, Ansem tried to open the door to Kingdom Hearts, expecting to be empowered with all that darkness had to offer.  Instead, he was overpowered by blinding light and vanished, believed to be destroyed.
