KH2 Regarding Pete

Recommended Posts

The Pete in Kingdom Hearts is made out to be more of a comical sort of villain, who's acts of evil are presented more as mischevious skullduggery than actual villainy. While his presence in the game is still potent, I do feel that the character is made almost a farcical at times, especially when in the same class as other Disney Villains such as Malificient. I wonder how the games would change if Pete was to take on a more serious, threatening role, such as he did in some of the older cartoons, most notably in The Prince and the Pauper. On the flip side, of course, Kingdom Hearts has an abundance of serious, brooding villains, and perhaps the comic relief that Pete provides is necessary in order to keep the light hearted spirit of the game up.

 

Thoughts and comments on whether Pete is okay as he is ( a sort of lovable wannabe villain), or if he might have been better had he been portrayed as more potently threatening.

I like his role now. Scenes with him and/or Hades make me laugh the most. And I think that is a good thing. Maleficent already took over the role as an evil, cold-hearted bitch villain. Xemnas, Ansem, SoD and Master Xehanort are real villains too... so I don't think that there is a need for another one.. and especially not Pete.

Who is going to take that fat bastard seriously?

Pete isn't Evil in KH, He's just an idiot.

Well joining the evil side, summoning heartless to hurt people, teaming up with Maleficent, and kidnapping innocent people or trying to turn them into heartless IS evil...

This is what did it for me as a kid. ;)

 

But I think I tend to agree with you: Pete's design is more to off set the darkness of everyone else.

Pete is fine the way he is.... If Pete were serious like Malificient then It wouldn't fit.......... Most Disney movies have a evil villein then a clumsy sidekick............ I think Disney wanted to add that to KH
