Well, Level 99 would help extremely.
you don't have to beat sephiroth to fight ansem I didn't. I think you have to go to hollow bastion to fight ansem.
Yes, the real Ansem (Ansem the Wise) was a good guy. He was just confused with the idea of getting revenge on his apprentice, Xehanort. Xehanort had stolen the idea of studying and using hearts for darkness, which turned Xehanort into a Heartless called Ansem and created a Nobody named Xemnas. Until Ansem the Wise met Riku, Ansem thought revenge was the only way. When he saw that Riku released his inner darkness to help save his friends, Ansem realized that revenge is wrong. Since then, he had been helping Riku fight the darkness.
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.
What you do is go through the door of darkness and fight Ansem for awhile and then there are 2 ways imbedded in Ansem himself and you go in both of them to find Donald and Goofy and they will help you fight him off. Then as soon as you beat Ansem the final cutscene appears, bringing the game to an end.
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.
Riku-Ansem looks like the fake Ansem.
The Keyhole in Hollow Bastion is in the Grand Hall where you fight Riku/Ansem, or where you fight Riku the second time.
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.
SpoilersXehanort had turned into a Heartless that called himself Ansem and controlled Riku. So technically, yes, it was Xehanort, but then no, it was his Heartless. The point is, the real Ansem was a good guy, not the one controlling Riku.
No. Xehanort's Heartless (the fake Ansem) looked like Ansem the Wise (the real Ansem) but a lot tanner.
Riku-Ansem is identical to Ansem, which is the Heartless of Xehanort.
It depends on who "Ansem" is, because there are really 3 different "Ansem"':One is the real Ansem the Wise who disguises himself as DiZ because the other 2 Ansem's take his identity.One fake "Ansem" is Xehanort's Heartless, who calls himself Ansem but is really the antagonist of KH1.The third "Ansem" (the second fake Ansem) is Riku-Ansem: after Riku takes off his black blindfold at Memory's Skyscraper in order to gain enough dark power to defeat Roxas, he permanently turns into Riku-Ansem, who is really Riku but now looks like the other fake Ansem and has more combat power.Since all Nobodies are created from the creation of Heartless, Xemnas is the Nobody of Xehanort's Heartless, Ansem.
