Perfect-o! Better than the first!!!
Gameplay: Amazing! You really really don't need to buy the first game for this because they show recaps of the old game! And besides, that would just be a waste of money!
Characters: Pretty much the same as the first, but with different looks! Sora's voice has changesd (puberty!! -^^-), Riku's a MAN, Kairi has longer hair, and the heartless are very cute!!!! Still the same, but cuter! i have no clue why!
Graphics: Still the same as the first, except for the begining! VERY GREAT!!! It doesn't go bad AS much as the first. Battles: A LOT MORE EASIER THAN THE FIRST!!! I have the strategy guide and there's dust all over it!! I never use it!! I love this game!!
Music: "Sanctuary" by Utada Hikaru is the greatest song ever!!! It's RULES!!!
The songs are pretty much the same as the first, just a pinch differently.
Levels: There are some familiar levels, and there are new!
Kingdom Hearts II is DEFINITLY a must have in your video game collection!!
