Kingdom Hearts

Kingdom Hearts is a canon crossover video game that, when first announced, came about as far out of left field as could possibly be imagined; it combined the JRPG giant SquareEnix with the monolithic animation company, Disney. Certainly the game wouldn't suffer from lack of funding, but people were baffled as to just exactly how anyone could pull a combination like this off.

And then they did. And it turned out to be pretty freakin' awesome.

Kingdom Hearts and its sequel, Kingdom Hearts 2, are sort of a cross between the JRPGs Square is best known for and real-time fighting RPGs like Zelda -- at least as far as gameplay is concerned. The story is a massive mash between the realms of Final Fantasy and the kingdom of Disney, with just a little original creation mixed in the middle. Square provides the protagonist, the game design, and some of the characters; the rest, meaning the worlds explored and a whole boatload of other characters, are provided by Disney. The main star of both games is Sora, a kid (what else is new) who gets ahold of a powerful weapon/artifact known as a Keyblade. Sora quickly gets launched into a quest to find the missing King Mickey and to discover the source of the strange creatures known as Heartless that are attacking all the worlds... and his faithful companions in this fight are Donald Duck and Goofy. It's a festival of cameos and combat from there on out, with all sorts of familiar faces showing up as Sora attempts to locate the King, as well as his childhood friends Kairi and Riku, and to figure out just what exactly the hell is going on that led him to this.

So, yeah, it's pretty cool. The sequel's plot expands on the first game, though it takes a while to get around to doing so, and introduces possibly the most popular-among-young-girls villain group in history, Organization XIII. Both games are full of twists and turns and manage to take a potentially hairbrained crossover plan and turn it into a very solid member of a very competitive community in gaming, the RPG realm. Neither are really perfect, but they're both good -- darn good -- and nowhere else will you have the chance to kick ass with Cloud Strife and Donald Duck at the same time.

In Regards to the PPC
The Kingdom Hearts canon was practically designed to appeal to a teenage demographic, and it definitely delivers in that aspect. The fanon that has arisen around the series is one of the fastest-growing and most intense out there, as well as one of the most inundated by fans of yaoi and slashfic (when you have so many male characters, it's almost a given). As a result, it's also one of the more heavily policed areas under PPC jurisdiction, which works out well since a large number of Agents actually want duty there. Of course, requirements to get in are high; extensive knowledge of the inherent canon is required along with at least peripheral knowledge of all the canons attached to it, which is by this time QUITE a lot, encompassing the majority of the Disney canon as well as some parts of the Final Fantasy canon.

There is currently one known PPC agent, Xericka, from the Kingdom Hearts continuum.
