    Shedding Starlight

    Kingdom Hearts is a series about love, friendship, good vs. evil, and light prevailing in the dark. Sounds simple? What about soul possession, human experimentation, and the end of times? The rumors are true, it’s deeper than you think. 

    We are Hannah and Mel, welcome to the podcast Shedding Starlight: A Guide to the Kingdom Hearts Mythos. If you’ve ever played the Kingdom Hearts games and wanted to dive deeper into the story, this podcast is for you! Shedding Starlight lays out all of the worldbuilding, hidden concepts, and character motivations that the games hid between the lines.

    Worldbuilding II - Are the worlds alive? Dec 23, 2024
    Show notes

    Kingdom Hearts II expands upon a web of connectionbetween all the worlds in the galaxy. The door to light, the door to darkness, and the door the worlds themselves provided. They all lead to different places, appear in different ways, and yet seem to have invisible ties. One sky, one destiny.

    Show notes

    A reflection as fragile as the mirrored glass itself; two characters who propel the story with the way their relationship builds. A metaphor for self-love. Believing in yourself, when you can see her right in front of you. We're joined by special guest Aeba (AKA "Absolutely Everything About") on today's episode to discuss two of the most important characters in the series: Kairi and Naminé.
