We've been wondering what Aqua's character is, and the game has kindly provided us with some answers! It turns out, first and foremost, she's a bootlicker! Oh, okay! Let's watch in horror as Aqua takes a tour of four Disney worlds and intensely respects anyone and everyone who orders her around in them. Is this really what her game is about? Xehanort, can you please give her something else to do? Sam | Drew | Twitter | Cohost

We're entering the endgame of Birth by Sleep, which in this case means we're entering the beginninggame of Aqua's story! As is tradition, it starts with a whole lot of Disney nothing! She's going on a tour of the worlds, learning about love or something? She just likes to watch people kiss. At least there's some good action to keep us entertained... or there would have been if the Fairy Godmother hadn't intervened to teach Aqua that murder is bad! Ugh!! Sam | Drew | Twitter | Cohost

Two boys down! That's what happens in Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep, thanks to Xehanort's machinations. In our third and final Terra Time, we're taking a quick trip to Neverland to fight the final boss, and then everything gets very bad for Terra very fast. What happened between him and Eraqus after Ventus got hucked? What was he up to at the top of that mountain with Xehanort? Nothing good, it turns out! Hopefully Aqua will have a better time than the others! Sam | Drew | Twitter | Cohost

Terra's story is flying by like a Keyblade hoverbike chasing a race car-shaped Unversed on a racetrack! We've got a few Disney worlds to get through this week, but what we're really here for is our funny guy Braig. Have you ever wondered what happened to his eye, or what else happened to his eye? You'll find out about one of them this week! Sam | Drew | Twitter | Cohost

Oh, gosh. Well, it looks like it's time to meet our favorite little quiet boy man, Terra. He may not have passed his Mark of Mastery exam, but what he lacks in control over his inner darkness, he makes up for in lack of control over his inner darkness! The Disney villains are gonna have a field day with this guy. Somebody, please, for the love of Mickey, help this Keyblade himbo. Sam | Drew | Twitter | Cohost

I hope you're sleepy for birth (????) because it's time to wrap up Ventus's story already! We'll miss this sweet little mouse disguised as a boy, but we've got two more friends to get to know over the next few weeks. For now, let's enjoy this thrilling conclusion featuring some extreme sicko Xehanort Reports, a Braig cameo, and the story of from whence Vanitas was riven. Sam | Drew | Twitter | Cohost

The true Kingdom Hearts begins here, as we approach the end of our time with Ventus. If you know Birth by Sleep, you've been waiting for it: it's the first mention of the infamous χ-blade! It's a real ordeal to talk about in an audio format, so we're sorry if it's an ordeal to listen to! Besides that, Ventus is meeting an experiment eventually known as Stitch, and (some of) the Lost Boys. Also Donald and Goofy are here! What a game! Sam | Drew | Twitter | Cohost
