In Kingdom Hearts I, Xehanort, Ansem's apprentice, became a Heartless and impersonated Ansem as an antagonist. In KH2, Ansem actually came in person as Mickey's old friend.
DiZ is revealed to be Ansem the Wise at the end of Kingdom Hearts 2, when he sacrifices his life in an attempt to destroy Kingdom Hearts.
Ansem the Wise, the REAL Ansem, is an important part of the story. Therefore, he will have to make an appearance in one of the Kingdom Hearts 2 Novels if the story is told the correct way.
Ansem the Wise is Ansem the Wise, he is nothing else, he pretended to be Diz in Kingdom Hearts 2, and he didn't show in Kingdom Hearts 1, the Ansem you fight in Kingdom Hearts 1 is actually Xehanort's Heartless, Xehanort is Ansem's apprentice, that became a Heartless, and the Nobody of Xehanort is Xemnas. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WRONG!!! Xemnas is Ansem's Nobody... Get rid of the x and switch a few letters around and you get ansem's name.... Not xehanort... FYI... ansem was DiZ... AND......... in kingdom hearts you didn't battle Ansem... You didn't battle xemnas... You battled xehanort that was pretending to be ansem... But it turned out that the REAL ansem was just trying to HELP sora... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The first answer was right. Xemnas is Xehanorts nobody. Think about it... they look alike and had somewhat the same goals.
Xeanort is the somebody of Xemnas. He is also the apprentice of Ansem the Wise.
There was no Ansem in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. However, there was Riku-Ansem (Riku's dark side) but Riku was still a good guy. In the other games, Ansem the Wise is a bad guy.
You have to beat Ansem
No Riku is blind but not really. The only reason Riku has the blindfold on is because since he was consumed by the darkness in Kingdom Hearts 1 he has to keep himself in the dark or his true form will come out which is the body and voice of Ansem who is actually Xemnas' somebody who is actually Xehanort and NOT Ansem the Wise.
you get them after beating bosses. they just give you some backstory on ansem and the heartless.
You only get to fight Ansem and his Guardian in Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories, while playing as Riku. However, you see the Guardian again when Riku unleashes his darkness to beat Roxas in Memory's Skyscraper.
He was killed near the end of KH2.He had a laser thingy to blast a big gap in Kingdom Hearts,but the impact ended up killing him.
with mad drawing skills that are sickeningly talented.
The final boss that you play against is Ansem.
