The {{nihongo|'''Oblivion'''|過ぎ去りし思い出|Sugisarishi Omoide|lit. "Passing Memories"}} is a [[Keyblade]] from the ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' series. It is gained by opening a chest located in the room where [[Riku]] was fought while possessed by [[Xehanort's Heartless]]. The player doesn't get a chance to open it until after the fight. In ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]'', the Oblivion card is obtained on the 12th floor after completing [[Destiny Islands]], and after defeating [[Larxene]] for the second time. Oblivion reappears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', as both a keychain for [[Sora]] after his reunion with [[Riku]], and as one half of [[Roxas]]' dual set of Keyblades, the other being [[Oathkeeper]]. After Roxas absorbs Xion in ''[[Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days]]'', he gains a second Kingdom Key which eventually becomes his Oblivion.

The Oblivion can be seen as a Keyblade of darkness, to balance out the light of Oathkeeper. The teeth are fashioned in the shape of the Kanji for "darkness" (闇), corresponding to the Oathkeeper's Kanji for "light". However, the location where Sora first obtains it in the first game, and its name suggest a representation of not just Sora's friendship with Riku, but also Sora's sacrifice for Kairi. The keychain is found in the first game in the same room where Sora sacrifices his heart to save Kairi's, thus casting himself into the darkness. Also, the name is reminiscent of [[Castle Oblivion]], and the design of the shaft looks like an [[Organization XIII]] robe. The design could also represent the creation of [[Roxas]], who became a member of Organization XIII.

In ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', it appears as a weapon for Riku, and can be upgraded to the '''Oblivion+'''. It also appears as half of [[Roxas]]’s [[Oathkeeper & Oblivion|dual set]] of Keyblades alongside the [[Oathkeeper]], and was transformed from the second Kingdom Key Roxas obtained after absorbing [[Xion]]. Fundamentally, the Oblivion is symbolic of Sora's memories of Riku.<ref name="Famitsu">'''''Famitsu'' Interview'''; '''Nomura''': "The Keyblades the boy who knows Sora is holding are the Oathkeeper and Oblivion from the first game.

Revision as of 16:32, 20 February 2020


This article is about the Keyblade. You may be looking for the castle.

The Oblivion (過ぎ去りし思い出 Sugisarishi Omoide?, lit. "Passing Memories") is a Keychain for Sora's Keyblade which appears in Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, Kingdom Hearts II, Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Kingdom Hearts Re:coded, and Kingdom Hearts III.

In Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, it appears as a weapon for Riku, and can be upgraded to the Oblivion+. It also appears as half of Roxas’s dual set of Keyblades alongside the Oathkeeper, and was transformed from the second Kingdom Key Roxas obtained after absorbing Xion. Fundamentally, the Oblivion is symbolic of Sora's memories of Riku.[1]

In Kingdom Hearts, the Oblivion is found in a chest in the Grand Hall, across from where Sora defeated Riku. In Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories, the Oblivion attack card is obtained by speaking to Naminé after Sora defeats Larxene, in Castle Oblivion's twelfth floor. In Kingdom Hearts II, Sora receives the Oblivion after he reunites with Riku and Kairi in The World That Never Was, and in Kingdom Hearts Re:coded, Data-Sora receives the Oblivion after defeating the possessed Data-Riku in Hollow Bastion. In Kingdom Hearts III, Sora can obtain Oblivion after delivering the Proof of Times Past to a Moogle Shop.

Design

Oblivion is similar in shape to the Kingdom Key, though it is black and has a longer reach. The hilt guard is comprised of two bat-like wings extending downward. The teeth are in the shape of the Kanji for "darkness" (闇). The Keychain's token is a black version of Sora's crown necklace. A chain-like design runs up the length of the blade. The diamond in its hilt also resembles the diamond in the original logo of Hollow Bastion. When the Oblivion is summoned in Kingdom Hearts II, black smoke and violet sparks surround it.

The Keyblade's name means a "state of forgetting or having forgotten", and its Japanese name has the same basic meaning. The Oblivion is often associated with the memories that are passing away, such as when Sora reaches the last floors of Castle Oblivion, or when Roxas begins forgetting Xion following her destruction.

Gameplay

Surprisingly, Riku is the only one able to wield the Oblivion Keyblade in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, though Roxas can wield it in conjunction with Oathkeeper. Riku can equip Oblivion by equipping the Pandora's Gear. The ground combo consists of a lone rush forward, followed by a 360 degree spinning slash on the left side, and ends with an upward slash with a slight jump.

The aerial combo consists of a diagonal upward slash from the right leg, the same slash from the left leg, another slash from the right leg, a smack with the teeth area, and a violent downward thrust with the top of the Keyblade.

In Kingdom Hearts III, Oblivion can be upgraded within the Keyblade Forge. At its maximum upgrade, Oblivion's damage is on par with the Ultima Weapon, though it has slightly less magic than the latter.

Other Appearances

A limited edition Oblivion was released with four other Keyblades in a special Play Arts Figures accessory set, Play Arts Arms.
