*{{uv|Kingdom Hearts}} is an action RPG series that was conceived as an unorthodox crossover between the general mechanics of ''Final Fantasy'' and the many universes of [[Disney]] films, with several ''Final Fantasy'' characters appearing as guests and cameos. The crossover was originally pitched when producer Shinji Hashimoto found himself in a chance meeting with a Disney executive in an elevator, as the two companies operated in the same building in Japan at the time. Under the direction of {{iw|wikipedia|Tetsuya Nomura}} with music composed by {{iw|wikipedia|Yoko Shimomura}}, the ongoing series has become one of the most storied and complex video game intellectual properties in Square Enix's catalogue, featuring various Disney universes including, but not limited to, ''Aladdin'', ''The Little Mermaid'', ''Pirates of the Caribbean'', and ''Big Hero 6''.
