If you were going to pinpoint exactly what makes the Kingdom Hearts series so popular, you’d probably start with the craziness of the Final Fantasy/Disney crossover concept. Then, you’d move on to the convoluted, but interesting story, and finally, the sheer awesomeness of the main weapon in the series, the Keyblade.
