To declare your true devotion to Kingdom Hearts, I asked readers to submit photos of their prized KH collection. This week, Kayla shared with me her memories of the game and we were able to have a brief chat. Also, I reveal Kayla’s answer to my posed question: If you were stranded on an island, what one KH memorabilia would you take with you?

In the Kingdom Hearts main cast, perhaps the person who is the most transparent and easy-to-understand would be Sora–our hapless, happy-go-lucky hero with the heart of gold and a smile that hides no hidden intention. With Sora, what you see is what you get. His constant good nature is one of the reasons we’ve been faithful and accepting for Sora as our apt leading man.

Yet beneath that exterior, we also find Roxas and Ventus who reside within Sora, prompting this week’s guest blogger, Quatre Winner to pose the question of how one goes about separating Sora from the other two residing hearts? Is Sora’s persona bound to those of his counterparts? If so, where do we begin to see Sora as his own person, and not as a mirror to Ventus, who lies within him?

One of the most strongly praised aspects about Kingdom Hearts is its battle system. Although some depth is lost due to the ease of the ‘X’ button (resulting in the tendency to button-mash), if you’re playing on the higher difficulty levels, you’ll really appreciate the diverse attack styles and abilities, all delivered in a quick-based, breathless manner. Boss battles represent the epitome of this frantic fight for your life–the most dreaded feeling is to watch your HP bar dive down as you’re juggled mid-air in an enemy assault, only to rise up from the ashes like a phoenix when you’ve cast Curaga.

Open your mind and delight your senses by revisiting these epic battles in the following Top 10, presented by this week’s guest, Inaheart.
