The '''Jungle King''' is gained automatically through the storyline when locking the heart of [[Deep Jungle]]; the world where '''[[Tarzan]]''' lives. While not the greatest Keyblade, its long reach does prove useful against fast Heartless as well as Heartless attacking in large groups.

The '''Jungle King''' is a [[Keychain]] for [[Kingdom Key|Sora's Keyblade]] which appears in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}''.


==Appearence==
==Development==
The motif of the keychain is that of a blue jungle butterfly with orange/peach wing-tips, tied to a slim jungle vine, which is connected to the handle of the keyblade via a carabiner. The handle is fastened with purple and brown leather strips and the keyblade itself seems to be carved from a single piece of wood. It has two thorn-like spikes portruding from the handguard, one on each side of the shaft. Its two extra teeth provides a longer reach.
The Jungle King was originally planned to appear as the signature Attack Card for Deep Jungle in ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'', and was even depicted in early screenshots for the game, but was [[Deleted content in the Kingdom Hearts series#Deep Jungle and Jungle King|removed]] along with the world when the estate of {{w|Edgar Rice Burroughs}} forbade Disney from reusing ''{{w|Tarzan}}''.

Design[edit]

The Jungle King appears to be made of wood and other materials from nature. Its handle is orange and surrounded by a circular, tan guard with two spikes near its top. The guard is almost entirely covered by a dark purple material wrapped around it. The shaft is very thin, tan, and long, to the point that the Jungle King is one of the longest Keyblades in Kingdom Hearts. Its teeth are made of five blunt, tan spikes separated by the same dark purple material from the guard. The first link of the Keychain appears to be a silver carabiner, while the rest of the Keychain appears to be a strand of creeper vine. The token resembles a blue butterfly with orange wingtips, the same type of butterfly that covered Deep Jungle's Keyhole.
