+Jacob Triplett Roxas and Xion kind of both belonged to Sora, in a sense. This fight is basically you fighting yourself. After all, Xion was meant to absorb Roxas's power. That's why she can wield a key blade. All the missions she went with you on was that so she could absorb your power. In the process she also absorbed Sora/Roxas' memories. So technically, you're fighting Sora, who in turn is you, who is basically Sora. So yeah, you're fighting a female Sora. Confused? so am I xD

I believe you capture the essence of Xion's battle with Roxas here. Its Fercious and unrelenting, but sad at its core. It really has a sense of finality and farewell at the slower parts, like the battle has to be fought but both don't want to hurt the other. You really can't picture the fight taking place anywhere else besides at sunset, high in the air. It's not the original, but it's a completely different song, and it's good. This is my favorite of your work. Good Job.

One of the best remixes of this song out there.

Kind of agree

To this day this remains the best remix of this song on KZread.

To make something clear: Almost everything Sora learned in KH1 and CoM was self-thaught. He didn't have years of training like Ven or a proper introduction to magic and combat and missions every day like Roxas. Sora was just given a keyblade and he fought the heartless wothout any experience, which shows that Sora is a natural with the keyblade. He has the greatest potential out of the three, and even if he is the weakest now (which is not sure after 3D), he will surpass them by the time of KH3

This is forever the best remix of this

its things like this that make me wish Kingdom Hearts would never end. its just so emotional and captivating. the depth and intrigue in the series makes you feel something...strong. to those who havent played, it just sounds like overdramatic babble, but its true. its just so deep and draws you in with such a heartfelt connection to the characters and their struggles. you fall in love so deeply, and thats why when the series comes to an end, ill be an emotional, sobbing wreck for weeks.

Man the best remix out of them all I swear!!!

I miss Xion, she was the greatest and possibly most heart-wrenching Character to appear in the KH series. Listening to her songs makes me long for the day when she'll meet Roxas again, but I fear that day will be long in coming. Why must the good die young and tragically? She didn't even get to beat Saix's face in for his treatment of her. Well, she did indirectly through Sora, but she wasn't actively swinging a weapon at the bastard. Sorry, I swear when I get emotional.

But she holds a place in some of our hearts! And judging that you play this series, you KNOW the power the heart holds!

a beautiful remix to one of the game's most dramatic boss battles =)

This song was the perfect finale to one of my favorite games. Such an emotional theme for the emotional end of an emotional character.

Well, I think Roxas has more potential, just due to having Ventus' heart, who'm was a very fast, agile and strong swordsman for his age, Sora is really gentle, fast and agile too, yet roxas has the upper hand due to the fact he learned how to dual wield, that gave him an advantage because he can attack from 2 directions at once, but Sora has the ability to summon back his Keyblade if it's taken, wich is what caught Roxas off-gaurd and got him to lose.. Atleast that's my opinion about it.

I've spotted someone trying to re-upload this remix and claim it as theirs. I have a problem with that. As soon as I finish leaving this comment here, I'm gonna go tell them off with a comment on their video. I think it would be good if I had some back-up. Could anyone who sees this comment here while it's less than a week old please click the link I post, give my telling-them-off comment a thumb up and maybe even post a comment of your own to further back me up? I don't want this re-uploader's shot at trying to become known for no good reason to have the slightest chance of actually working. Kingdom Hearts Vector to the Heavens Remix I'm not 100% sure about KZread's policy around re-uploads of unofficial remixes of songs from video games, otherwise I would've just hit the "report" button and been done with it. If any of you who see this do know of a way to officially get this re-uploader in trouble, please do so.

I was somewhat young at the time and thought, "this is so cool, I want to upload it and get everyone else to think I'm cool too!" or some stupid shit like that. It was quite idiotic and I realized that almost immediately, especially when I saw a comment on the video concerning the reupload. I immediately took down the video afterward. Even to this day, I still cringe whenever I hear this song because of that memory. Thank you for doing the right thing back then because if you hadn't, it might've been someone else at a later time to point it out and I would have gotten in major trouble.

Hey! I am currently working on a research video on the history of Vector to the Heavens fan arrangements. I would like to ask if it would be alright to talk about yours briefly, possible connections it might have to other arrangements, and present a brief part of your video in it. Thank you!

I'm not sure whether or not any of the data characters in Re:Coded are really all that accurate to their originals, so I can't say. I'd say Roxas should be more skilled and experienced than Sora, he spends a year or so daily running around killing heartless and other enemies while Sora was fighting around the worlds for a couple months at best and then spends a year asleep. I think Sora won because of main character syndrome. The main character always wins, no matter how little sense it makes.

Wow, just wow. I usually don't like remixes, but . . . two thumbs up. This was awesome.

11 years and this theme still hits different

I think some people are looking at things wrongs. Being a strong keyblader is certainly important and Sora probably isn't the strongest in that area. No, what matters in Kingdom Hearts is of course the heart. Sora has the strongest heart. That's why he's the main character, that's why he's the one meant to save everyone.

It's the opposite. Roxas allowed what was happening make him angry, while Sora never once allowed the harrowing events change his ways or outlook on life. And despite using two keyblades Roxas lost to Sora who wields one. Also, he only wields two due to his connection to Sora and Ventus, which I won't spoil.

After having this on my playlist forever, I just recently discovered how amazing all your other remixes are. I have subscribed and give a thumbs up to all your remixes. Keep up the excellent work!!

A friend of mine who made his own little animation series and used this at the ending brought me here. I'm glad he gave credit and linked to you. This remix sounds amazing~

no amount of words can describe all the emotions going on in the final fight with xion. it was so sad having to fight xion. at the same time it was one of the most epic battles in kingdom hearts. it doesnt affect me TOO much because i have hope that she will come back in kh3 thanks to the ending of coded.

fantastic ending. the way it screams out at you with the guitar and the strings is really cool.

i remember buying this game as soon as it was released, i saw that this video was uploaded nov. 2009 and the first thought that came to my head was "has it really been that long?" ah well, it was a great game.

nice remix! i like how you turned a song that's usually relaxing into something so upbeat!

Slight? I agree though. I love how you can tell it's still tragic but it's intense now...The original version has a epic sound full of tragedy and finality while this one is more like an intense, tragic battle.

Woo, blown away :) Good job. Wish the quality were a little clearer, but this is awesome...takes an epic tragic song and turns it into something intense.

just when i didnt think this song could get any better EPIC BEGINNING!!!
