The story is not good. The characterization is fine, but the development is shallow. The plot holds together, but it's slow and contrived. There are some interesting, even inspired ideas, but they're communicated poorly.
In sum, it functions, but it's not enjoyable.
Likewise, the story of Kingdom Hearts isn't good, but for somewhat different reason. The disney-themed side-stories are too shallow and insubstantial to stand on their own, while the overarching narrative doesn't get enough space to accomplish anything worthwhile. It has its moments, but as a whole it simply does not work.
I believe in honesty, civility, generosity, practicality, and impartiality.
