3	On October 16, 1923, brothers Walt and Roy Disney founded the Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio, which established itself as a leader in the American animation industry (becoming the first company in the English-speaking world to produce and release a full-length animated feature film) before diversifying into live-action film production, television, and theme parks. Changing names a few times over the years, it became [[Creator/{{Disney}} The Walt Disney Company]] in 1986, expanding its existing operations and also starting divisions focused upon theater, radio, music, publishing, and online media.
4
5	The Disney/''Kingdom Hearts'' Loops are the home of ''all'' the characters and settings which were created or are otherwise owned by The Walt Disney Company, covering almost a century's worth of material across many different media formats. These include:
6
7	* WesternAnimation/OswaldTheLuckyRabbit (Walt's first major creation) and the WesternAnimation/ClassicDisneyShorts (Mickey Mouse and associated characters)
8	* The Franchise/DisneyAnimatedCanon (over 20 of these 50+ films are their own Loops)
9	* Creator/{{Pixar}} films (about half of them as of this writing)
10	* Assorted other animated and live-action films created by Disney, such as ''WesternAnimation/TheNightmareBeforeChristmas'' and ''Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean''
11	* Creator/DisneyTelevisionAnimation (from ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales1987'' to ''WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil'' and a lot in between)
12	* Various animated shows that weren't created by Disney but air on Disney channels internationally (such as ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'')
13	* Creator/RickRiordan's [[TheVerse 'Verse]] (''Literature/PercyJacksonAndTheOlympians'', ''Literature/TheHeroesOfOlympus'', ''Literature/TheTrialsOfApollo'', ''Literature/TheKaneChronicles'', and ''Literature/MagnusChaseAndTheGodsOfAsgard''), released under Disney Publishing Worldwide
14	* And the ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'' series.

16	The Disney Loopers are generally a friendly sort, welcoming to outside Loopers and non-Loopers alike.

19	----
20	!!''The Disney Loops'' provide examples of:
21	* AcidRefluxNightmare: In Loop 15.4, [[WesternAnimation/InsideOut Riley]] has a nightmare that she chalks up to the fact that she had broccoli pizza right before bed, something she [[NoMoreForMe immediately decides to stop doing]].
22	** Later on, in a Fused Loop with ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'' where she and her emotions get the "welcome to the multiverse" speech, Phineas and Ferb use the mind machine to enter Riley's mind with her. One of the things Riley does while freaking out over the fact that she's in her own mind is claim it's all a strange dream from eating too much broccoli.
23	* ArrangedMarriage: Loop 1.9 (also compiled in ''MLP Time Loops'' as Loop 122.1) has one between Oswald and [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Princess Luna]] and another for Mickey and Princess Celestia.
24	* AnAsskickingChristmas: Loops compilation 38 is all about a "Christmas War", in which [[WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug Adrien Agreste]] and WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom have major issues with Christmas because their families have major issues of their own that come out around that time, and decide to declare war on the holiday, gaining allies for "Team Scrooge". Other Loopers form "Team Santa" to stop them, resulting in a massive battle until a third group, including ''[[Creator/LewisLovhaug Linkara]]'', gets involved and Linkara talks some sense into Danny and Adrien.
25	* AutomatedAutomobiles: [[spoiler:Tyler's van, as part of what the author called a "rerailment of ''Literature/TheTwilightSaga''" timeline.]]
26	* CassandraTruth: In Loop 13.4, there's this line of dialogue when the inhabitants of the Tragic Kingdom are speculating as to why the Fallen Princesses are gathering at The Castle of Fantasia Lost:
27	--> A rare few held onto the belief that they were convening as part of a single grand ritual, meant to break the grip of Darkness and Evil on the land. It was a shame that not many people listened to this last group, since they were more correct than even they would have guessed.
28	* CollectorOfTheStrange: [[WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}} Goliath]] keeps a collection of Vinnie's pie-shooting bazookas.
29	* ComicallyMissingThePoint: Nino's first loop has Alya shoot Chloe in the shoulder with an orange paint gun when Chloe is giving Nino a whole bunch of clothing based insults after he decided Chloe was the best person to ask for help with Adrian's birthday party. Chloe proceeds to snap at Alya for just standing there when Chloe had gotten hit in her brand new cardigan by paint and retreats off to find Sabrina for a clean-up, completely missing that ''Alya'' was the one who shot her. Cue Nino thinking that Chloe's not ''that'' dumb.
30	* CurbStompBattle: A newly looping Captain Hook vs an Awake and much older [[VideoGame/{{Shantae}} Risky Boots]]. It does not end well for Hook.
31	* DeconstructiveParody: Has had a few Loops where this happened to the soap opera genre, showing how a sane person would react to the ridiculous plot twists in them.
32	** Also for the ''Literature/TheTwilightSaga'' universe.
33	* DyingCurse: In Loop 33.25, [[WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid1989 Ursula]] enacted a ''[[Literature/TheDresdenFiles Dresden Files]]''-style Death Curse, anchored to her sister Morgana (to ensure it would stick) on Ariel, giving her seven more days with Eric and then a lifetime trapped in a place far from both he and her father's kingdoms and the people who lived there. Fortunately, King Triton was able to add a CurseEscapeClause to it after the fact. Also fortunately, the original curse couldn't affect someone who hadn't been conceived when it was cast, meaning that Ariel had her daughter Melody for company until [[WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast Belle]] came along and was able to start the curse's breaking.
34	* ForTheLulz: What is the first action Oswald and Luna do after they are awaken in 1.9? Prank Celestia, of course.
35	* GenreSavvy: DoubleSubverted with Mickey when he became ComicBook/{{Shazam}}, as he can "almost taste the upcoming adventure hook" but dismissed it as "spending way too much time in Loops based off of [=RPGs=]." Oh, how right he is.
36	* HarmlessLadyDisguise:
37	** Loop 40.4 has the beggar woman from ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'' wearing her usual cloak and speaking in a squeaky voice... but then she turns out to be a disguise not for an enchantress, but a sorcerer. Who looks like [[TabletopGame/{{Clue}} Colonel Mustard]]. When Beast/Prince Adam falls for the disguise and calls her "Miss", the sorcerer takes offense and enacts the curse on him and his castle.
38	** 40.5 has something similar, except this time the sorceress is a disguised [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Waluigi]], who curses Adam to have Waluigi's nose.
39	* HoldYourHippogriffs: One ''Franchise/{{Cars}}'' snip mentions that people only watch Chick Hicks talk show because they want to watch him make a [[labelnote:tailpipe]]ass[[/labelnote]] of himself.
40	* JokeAndReceive: When Linda Flynn-Fletcher starts looping, she (in an attempt to calm her stress) asks if Perry is actually a spy. He promptly walks in, wearing his fedora.
41	* TheKindnapper: One Loop features [[WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast Belle]] as a monster and employee of WesternAnimation/MonstersInc, who discovers that young Boo has an abusive father and chooses to take her back to Monstropolis to keep her safe.
42	* MixAndMatchWeapon: As of the end of Loop 37.1, courtesy of [[Franchise/EvilDead Ash Williams]], Sora now has a Boomstick version of his Keyblade. Appearance-wise, it's a fusion of a normal Keyblade, a shotgun, and a chainsaw.
43	-->Its hilt now resembled a shotgun stock, but with a grip in the middle, while its main body resembled two long tubes right next to one another, each with the serrated edges of a chainsaw blade running around the edges, giving it the appearance of a pin tumbler key like ''Fenrir'' instead of the lever lock key design that most of his Keyblades had.
44	* PieInTheFace:
45	** It's ''Gargoyles'' canon that Goliath gets hit in the face with a banana cream pie (fired via bazooka). In the Loops, it's an unavoidable RunningGag that he gets shot in the face with it at least once a Loop. He finds it annoying, but ultimately harmless (especially compared to [[Franchise/DoctorWho the Doctor]] getting shot by a Dalek and forcing a regeneration), and is willing to let bygones be bygones... even when it happens multiple times in one Loop.
46	** Chapter 40 includes multiple "Pie Glitch" Loops, in which random pies appear and hit people.
47	* PikePeril: Discussed in Loop 41.9 (based on ''WesternAnimation/TheSwordInTheStone''), where Sir Ector reveals the pike in his castle's moat is there on purpose, as a sort of guard animal - it's meant to keep out any intruders who might try swimming in the moat to test the castle walls for a weak spot.
48	* ProsceniumReveal: Loop 10.10, a Classic Disney/''MLP'' Loop, appears to be featuring Disney characters against the Conversion Bureau... then the last scene break is followed by "And cut! Print! That's a wrap! Good job everyone!", revealing that it wasn't the real Bureau at all - Mickey and Celestia were just starring in a ''movie'' based on that setting.
49	* PsychicPower: Oswald has this.
50	* RealPersonFic: In the Managing the Company timeline. [[spoiler:Subverted in that there is the obviously fictional "Networking Illuminati Against Really Good Shows and Ideas" (N.I.A.R.G.I.) involvement.]]
51	* RelatedInTheAdaptation: In a Fused Loop with ''WesternAnimation/MonstersInc'' and ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'', Adam/Beast is stated to be Sully's brother, making Belle and the latter in-laws.
52	* SavingChristmas: Loops compilation 38 is all about a "Christmas War", in which a pair of Loopers who have issues with Christmas (their families have major issues that come out around that time) decide to declare war on it and recruit allies to join them, while others fight back to save it, and another set entirely try to just stop the war. It ends when the leaders of Team Scrooge - Adrien Agreste of ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'' and Danny Phantom of ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom'' - get talked down by [[Creator/LewisLovhaug Linkara]], a member of the third group.
53	* ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney: Rich Loopers have literally bought out problems during Fused Loops.
54	* ScrewedByTheLawyers: InUniverse, the legal right splitting the characters of the [[Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse MCU]] is mentioned in the Managing the Company timeline.
55	* {{Squick}}: InUniverse, how Oswald, Minnie, and Mickey react to the "imprinting" mechanic in ''Literature/TheTwilightSaga''.
56	* ShipTease: Loop 11.8 has [[WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}} Lexington]] (who is canonically gay) admit he met [[WesternAnimation/HowToTrainYourDragon Gobber the Belch]] (who is also canonically gay) in a Fused Loop, and "We didn't really have a chance to go on a date or anything, but we got along great. I hope I can meet him again."
57	* TakeThat: Many.
58	** The Anchors think [[Film/{{Carrie\|1976}} Margaret White]] would "get eaten by someone's dog, and poison it." after they turned her into a newt.
59	** Mickey thinks of soap operas' storytelling style as "More plot twists than you could shake a stick at, and not a lick of sense among them."
60	** A less mean-spirited one would be how Goofy managed to make ''[[Franchise/KingdomHearts Kingdom Hearts III]]'' "to be less [[MindScrew mind-screwy]] than previous installments" and think the games weren't created on a sober mind.
61	** Minnie thinks that it "can't be too difficult" to do a better job than [[Literature/TheTwilightSaga Bella Swan]]. She also thinks Edward's actions are creepy and patronizing but was treated as "romantic".
62	** The whole concept of imprinting is mocked by both Leah and Oswald. The latter even took drastic measures to remove it. Likewise, the "sparkly vampire" is mocked by Oswald.
63	** A few times, the ''Miraculous Ladybug'' Loopers have ended up in variants based off of the [[AccusationFic "salt]] [[RevengeFic fics"]] prevalent in their fandom (including one based off of the ''Fanfic/MaribatAU''); every time, said settings get mocked by the characters. During one such Loop, Alya even asks Marinette and Adrien how they deal with them.
64	* TemptingFate: In Loop 36.1, when Anger, Fear and Joy are talking about how they can't find the other Looper despite all of Riley's Pingings, Riley quietly sighs and says "Well, it's not like they're just going to show up." as she watches her parents finding out the moving truck somehow got lost. There's a knock on the door and when Riley's mom answers, she encounters Cinder Fall. When Riley's mom says that the family's still moving in, Cinder says "Oh, that must make you just loopy with frustration." to which Riley rushes up and says "Yeah it does, but we're well anchored."
65	* UnsettlingGenderReveal: Loop 40.13 has Belle more startled than disturbed when the curse breaks and reveals Beast isn't Prince Adam this Loop - it's [[VisualNovel/DokiDokiLiteratureClub Natsuki]].
66	* UpliftedAnimal: [[WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}} Bronx]] is of dog-like intelligence and only speaks in barks and growls in canon. In Loop 11.8, it's revealed he's since Replaced WesternAnimation/ScoobyDoo in a Loop and is now an IntellectualAnimal who can speak English.
67	* WhatTheHellHero: Mike and Sully deliver one to Belle in 42.4 after she [[TheKindnapper grabbed Boo]] from her abusive dad and brought her to Oozma Kappa.
68	* {{Yandere}}: Minnie for Mickey in one timeline. They agreed to [[LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain never speak about it]].
69	* YouAreTooLate: Heroic version. When Phineas and Ferb Awaken on the bus ride to the Smile Away Reformatory School alongside [[WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddParents Timmy, AJ, Chester, Cosmo and Wanda]], they start making plans to deal with the school, only to discover upon arrival that the loop was ''also'' a fused loop with ''WesternAnimation/CodenameKidsNextDoor'', with much of the organization currently laying siege to the place.
70	* YouCantFightFate:
71	** No matter what he does, [[WesternAnimation/TheEmperorsNewGroove Kuzco]] can't stop Yzma from turning him into a llama.
72	** One ''Incredibles''/Marvel Fused Loop was a mixed bag: Mr. Incredible was able to prevent Buddy Pine's StartOfDarkness, but the SuperRegistrationAct still went through.
73	** Goliath is forever doomed to get a PieInTheFace from Vinnie.
