I love Roxas and Naminé. I also agree, I find them more....attractive, than Sokai. I suppose it's that, they didn't really rush the romance that much. I mean, Roxas and Naminé did meet in KH2, and just knew each other from the point forward [and Roxas had real problems in his hands], so simple looks and sort of subtext is enough until they get more time to fully develop what they have. Besides, they can be both sad people, yet at the same time, it's the sort of bad boy/aggressive type with the innocent girl.
In behalf of Deathsight, if you read what he said before he erased it, forget it ^^.
I'll post later on *looks at time* today. When you're in school, I would think :P. Been tired, and I've tried, but I can't think on much right now.
Awwww, come on. There's much better done by someone else :P.
I'm surprised Roxas has been mentioned so much compared to Sora, considering they are suppose to look alike. I do agree that he's more handsome than Sora, however. And "hotter". I just think it's his aggresive attitude, and his contrasting personality that really makes us choose between the two. Axel, for example, may have looks, but he has this magnetic charm you can't get enough of either.
I always look back at it. I mean, sure, we have a satisfying amount of female characters when you take the crossovers of Disney and FF together. But, you also have to recall that they were developed and grew strong in their own stories and proper placement titles. Which were done by other people. KH just brings those established characters into the one universe. When we take at KH itself, and its original characters, that in turn judges the writers and creator, the lack of original females is astounding compared to how many original males have been made for it. Larxene made a strong impression, but she was offed with very few scenes in CoM. Kairi is not the best role model as of the moment. Olette has minimal scenes as well. Xion and Aqua appear in their own game until proven otherwise. It doesn't help that half of them are Kairi-looking clones, somewhat related, that are much more better characters than the actual effort the original was given. It's like Nomura, or his team, cannot give a important role to a female unless she somewhat resembles Kairi in some form or way, while the others who do not look like her get thrown to the side. It's stupid, unfair, repetitive, and questions his creativity and lack of direction. The only way females could fight too is if they only have a Keyblade, excluding Larxene, thankfully. While Olette and Naminé aren't fighters. The fact that it's been said the Organization retain their human form when one is of a strong Heart, and only Larxene, being female, was among 11 others, well, you can reach your own conclusions. Minus that Xemnas is sexist himself, and chauvinistic, so it makes me think Larxene must have made a impression on him enough in skill to let her in. Yet, is she a rare case of the Nobody female population? Now, does it mean I think it's sexist? It depends. It could be viewed as such, but that really goes to Nomura, and his explanation as to why he does half of the things he does to the females he originally creates. I think he's going at it very wrongly, and I see a bunch of potential in the females he has already that could be done to make them amazing and great characters that can surpass the amount of males altogether. Quality over Quantity, is what I'm trying to say. It's just either he's blinded, can't see it, or doesn't want to make KH a two disc game. For the other interesting subject, I personally do think KH is geared to the female audiences more, if you ask me. For one thing, as weird as it would sound coming from a female herself, the chest area is greatly reduced in the game. What looks like B-cups, which would be Aqua, Larxene, and Aerith, would really be C-cups. And the actual chest that looks normal sized is Tifa's [I'm sure many were disappointed], but she's suppose to be a D or higher >.>. There's also the fact that, among all the male fanservice in the Organization, the Org. cloak reduces the chest area even more [and you won't notice she's well-endowed until she turns to the side for the actual length. And yes, I'm taking Larxene as the prime example], makes me feel somewhat bad for the guys xD. Along with the chest area switching sizes sometimes randomly [it's not hard to notice, even for me, as I usually glue my vision on Axel and how sexy he is in such pretty graphics x3]. Granted, it's probably because of the age range, but I saw Disney have no problem with showing Ariel in a representation of a bra for the kiddies -_-. Second, we get a huge amount of bishonen in KH. Like, huge. Enough for the females to drool over multiple times, and go nuts with their, uh, imaginations, let's put it in that context. We get loads of fanservice. If the target audience is neutral, why not make it equal? To add this in, girls also seemed more proned to men. I've seen multiple examples where yaoi fangirls throw a fit when a woman gets in their way of their "male love". And in polls, if you notice, the bishies of Organization XIII always gets the most poll results, no matter what the topic or question is, instead of choosing and respecting their own female model in Larxene. Something to think about. Third, the "unintentional" yaoi vibes from each circle of male friendship. I believe in Bromance, and not all best friends have to be homosexuals or have butt sex to be anymore special. Friendship is a strong root and bond in itself that can even be above romantic love. And not all love has to be romantic either. I'm not going to marry my mother or cousin, you know. But really, Axel's last lines to Sora in his death bed, and Sora dropping to his knees and grabbing Riku's hands while spilling tears? Among other examples. I am firm in that they are best friends only because: 1. They refer to each other that way, in their thoughts or outspoken. The Novels even have Axel labeling Roxas as a kid and that he was always too big for the white throne he sat in, and...needless to say, any romantic implications from that point of view he sees Roxas in scares the shit out of me for obvious reasons. I rather not butcher a character for the sake of fantasy, thanks. 2. If they had some fetish, secret feelings, or liked each other, you would think they would have admitted it by now after long years. Or have pondered over what to do, and worry about their emotions, and whatnot. None of that exists. 3. There are heavy differences in which Roxas, and Sora, interact with their females, than their best friends. While I don't agree with her insertion, a good example of this is Roxas touching Xion's hand in Days. And Naminé reaching out her hand to Roxas in the darkness ala Cloud and Aerith's in AC as well, and the CGI ending of them in KH2. They also range to even hugs. Not to mention the romantic implications of Sora and Kairi. The dude daydreamed of dancing with her, and blushed, according to Donald and Goofy. SO. No, they are not gay. Too bad, so sad. The point is, you can't blame the fangirls either with what they get in the vague messages. And fourth, is the lack of females in general that guys can really oggle at. I don't know how they feel about looking at Disney girls from their childhood memories. Or what they find attractive. But, unlike anime I rather not mention that really give them their approppiate fanservice, KH is lacking in that level.

I don't see any difference in storing them as data than what the false KH was doing in the same method. They can't "reform" themselves either. There are probably Heartless who scurry the worlds for a long time, and not get killed, thus, still keeping the Heart, and having others unable to come back. The false KH Xemnas has was built over a year, and while it's vague, the Hearts don't drain, and don't get their energy depleted. Otherwise, the KH would only be used once, and to get more chances, Xemnas would have to start over from scratch. Which isn't the case for obvious reasons, and it wouldn't make sense. The concern is whether Xemnas will release those Hearts when he is done. Not the goal the rest were wanting to accomplish: becoming whole. As for Xemnas, it's hard. He said in his long, dramatic speech that he will build a world for Nobodies to live in, so I'm thinking he was going to get some things accomplish in terms of making things better for them. As long as they are under his reign. We don't really know what was on Xemnas's mind, and from what we've gotten, plans kept changing, so... And yes, you're on the right track with interview. When a Heartless is killed, the Heart released comes into a state of suspension. If the Nobody is killed after, they have a chance to return to their original selves. If the Nobody is killed first, however, and then the Heartless, chances are you'll be less lucky, but still have a high percentage of coming back. Both creatures will have to go. So no, no Unbirth. Er, no, not really. The Heartless still exist. Sora didn't get rid of all of them. As long as Heartless roam the worlds, they will steal Hearts from others, and create more of them. So the increase again isn't really astounding for a year. Roxas took over as Sora was napping to kill them [along with the Organization, which is what their missions are for every day]. Yet, once more, won't get rid of them all. And Malificent was the one taking control of the Heartless. The Organization didn't usurp her until she started to get in their way. And even then, they still use lower Nobodies. Which are better, smarter, and stronger, when you think about it. No reason to use petty Heartless.
I like it =P. I want them to be translated so badly. Is there anything I should know that happened in the Novels?
OOC: Spell checking is quite tedius for me >.>. But worth it to make sure there are no typos and mispelling. Might post randomly without double checking one of these days. All of it went truly fast for her intoxicated, dizzy mind to take in. She was walking blindly, and then the next thing she knew, there were tires running among the coaled, black road to her, bright headlights making her wince her eyes slightly. It was too much of a difference between the night and a blare of shine to quickly get used to. And it gave her a headache due to the alcohol consumed. A loud, squealing shriek of rubber met her ears clearly, her lungs halting from breathing in the process, her brain, despite it being slow, picking up on what that meant as she recoiled. Or rather, in fighting instinct, blocked. Uselessly. However, nothing hit her, and she glanced back up to see that the driver had stopped in time, looking rightly and highly furious. But it was there that Axel began to pull her deep into the streets, other cars rushing by past them, honking, and some screeching to stop, while she unknowingly just let herself be taken throughout the whole hazardous zone without thinking too much about it. Unable to think about. Her adrenaline was rushing, though, when she felt vehicles coming to her, appearing as if they were about slam her, only to then roll over in action to avoid it, and moved by the redhead. This just made her vision spin...having her feel sick to her stomach as a consequence, and closely tripping too many times as she was lost in the midst of the swirls. It was this way...the whole time, her breathing becoming quite ragged as she was wondering what the hell were they doing as they dug more into the stray of motors, until they finally made it into the other end of the sidewalk. Or at least, that's what she could deduce as she blankly stared at her surroundings, no more brightness, no more sounds, and it was silence. There were no cars to pummel through them either. And the hotel was closer. Regaining her bearings, as she had gotten dazed, and was swaying dangerously enough to fall to the ground, she shut her eyes, waiting for the whole world to stop whirling. It took a moment for it to pause as she reopened her eyes slowly, head tilted, and she childishly peeked over to the sky in a clumsy manner, feeling droplets of cool water hitting her cloak and skull...going steady, before, like any other type of rain, picking up in speed and amount. She somehow heard Axel shouting and cursing at someone unimportant, but that didn't matter as she was enthralled by the wet pour that became stronger and heavier, really drenching her to the bone as her blonde locks became a deep yellow as they damped, outfit soaking as the shower of liquid pummeled upon them, body completely dripping and soggy now. She licked her rinsed lips, a huge, happy grin on her face as this made her somewhat excited in anticipation. She could feel the tingle of the electricity calling into the lightning that was just about to flash across the clouds, her skin getting goosebumps in preparation as certain sparks of blue and yellow randomly coiled around her in response. Definite thunder storm, despite that she couldn't see her clearly due to her hazy sight. She was so focused on it, that she was caught off guard when someone tapped her in the cheek...the kind that some usually did when trying to wake others up from their sleep. Her blue orbs shifted to Axel, almost like her usual self as her expression demanded a explanation for touching her that way, though she giggled in amusement when he said that too much water can harm them. It did not harm her. Of course, if she was in the midst of a whole bunch of water that she was encased in, sure. The worst was that she will get short-circuited to a small extent, something she could recover from easily anyway if given the opportunity. Lightning was her element, her existence and body wasn't completely made by it, if at all, and in turn, she was immune. The same way Axel's fire didn't burn him, she confirmed to herself. Otherwise, she could care less! It was him that didn't like it. It was funny to see someone dislike something such as the rain, because it was nice. It was there she laughed out of place again, her hand covering her mouth as she just went to look back up at the sky again, the electricity flowing in static. She exclaimed, very drunkenly, "What you talking about?! It's fun! It won't hurt me. I'm Larxene." It was as if that very name was explanation enough to have it make sense, because she stepped away from him in a reasonable distance. Just when spirals of lighting...small, thin strings of two dropped down on her arms, making the outline of her full figure glow as she twirled around in awe, eyes flashing a blueish white as it gleamed, making her irises and pupils disappear in a empty canvas as her body charged up. If it was like being on a high. To the point where she was literally almost floating off the ground as the bottom of her cloak flowed, the rain showering down on her. She giggled again. "Isn't it pretty?! Thunder only happens when it's raining..." Needless to say, he did not expect with having to deal with Xioimara when he came down to the lab in such a way as it was now once he had materialized underground. He had sensed her, certainly, as well as the intruder, yet he was expecting that she would simply talk about why she was released, instead of actually, while vague, fighting to stay. He had wanted to see Vexen, speak to him about his message before, and discuss what happened recently. Unfortunately, it was not to be so. He knew that the girl had gotten the message of her not being a part of their Organization any longer for reasons she knew terribly well, and thus, why she was staring at him as if deciding. He flicked his eyes over to the elder scientist momentarily, and did not bother to pay attention to the other person in the room, in case his patience was cut, and he ended up destroying him. He did not like people that did not belong in his territory, and he kept pondering if he should have killed Demyx, and have him gone because of this factor. The one at fault for all this. Nonetheless, he waited for her to finish what she was saying in mild interest, face blank and emotionless. Listening to her explanation as she opened her mouth, he merely stood still, acknowledging her with nothing, but a unreadable expression. Ah. So she did want to stay, as predicted. There were many things to come from that. She did not do much idiotic actions as the ninth member had done to warrant imprisonment, and she was fairly new. Still, he was not going to let people who disobeyed, and took their own paths, to be let off easy, despite when there wasn't much fault. No. She played a part. If she thought this was going to be perfectly crisp and clean to excuse, she was mistaken. Traitorous movements were not taken lightly by him at all, and if he did not have a plan for Demyx, and his new delusion, they would be missing a member. He remained silent otherwise, studying the girl with a more hard, sharp glint in his orange eyes. He frowned visibly as the man, Leon was what he was called, distracted the stagnant air by saying he wished to go home. And it was there he turned to eye him. If he had wished so, he would not have been here. And Xioimara's actions to him made him question her more thoroughly. It wasn't until it was quiet again that he finally responded, voice monotone, yet, with a edge. "Frankly, if a fight occurs, then you will not make it out of here alive, I assure you. It is hard for me to believe you, or to keep you here in the premises. You have shown that you can be distrustful without even being here for a hour or so, and for that, you need to prove yourself. Truly. His eyes stroke the light maliciously. "It is indeed...I do not know you well enough, but if you are going to follow into other people's actions, which are foolish, and things you should know better, I do not know how are you going to be useful for this group if this is what I am to expect from you. You are also with our enemies. I know. Trespassers into my property, that you had helped get in, and the fact that you ask how Demyx is, appears pathetic. If you are going to trail after his stupidity, and join him, then you are just a useless to me and this organization as he is, or has become. How would you ever rise from your obvious mistakes, that I am sure you were warned of, it is something to be questioned. Is this how the future will be if I keep you? Disobeying? Doing things you should not do? There are rules and policies to be kept. If you cannot handle it, you can rightly leave, and never come back. You are lucky that this is all that you are getting, because I am being merciful to both you and Demyx, when I should not be. If it were up to me, you will all return to be nothing, and drown in the pits of darkness whence you came." He truly did not know how he was to be convinced that she will be a great addition to the cause. She was too prideful, even though Nobodies were not suppose to feel such a thing, something that keeps being forgotten, but understood why. And she seemed to do things her own way. Which was not possible when you were under someone's reign. It was like a loose cannon. Now that this reply was over, however, he was about to deal with the other male, before he swerved his direction at the air suddenly, waiting for something to appear. A black void, as if on cue, materialized, and out came the mullet haired man, and his companion. There was a pause as he searched them with his sight. He was not pleased, to be truthful. Which was why he coldly gazed at the water wielder, hearing him compliment him with respect. Nevertheless, he was not going to fall for it, and this would not have his mistakes to be erased. He did not find the blond man a threat either, so he merely glared at him darkly, not at all fazed by his sword that he had come to aim at him, pondering if he should make him die. He was not going to deal with that attitude, and his toleration was gone. And if Demyx decided to join him in his demise, he was free to do so. It was When everyone did not say anything for a while, that he stated, "The act will not be committed again for both of your sakes. I have no qualms in destroying anyone who stands in my way. Number Nine, it seems that you always do the things that I do not want you to. So far, you are failing on your worth. I am debating whether it was a right decision to keep you alive." He did not bother much on focusing with the two, looking back at Leon once more. "As for you, I would actually prefer it if you all leave the castle. I do not want you here as much as you do not want to be here. Impudent pests are not in the equation. Demyx here, will make a pathway to get you back, considering he is to be blame for the situation, and should be the one to fix his mess. I have important matters to attend to, and I rather not be delayed. Or have a crowd in the laboratory."
I was actually connecting more to the people who didn't find him hard, since I keep hearing the same opinion a lot of times. The only thing we can take from game play is perhaps their actual attacks. But, that also doesn't equate the power.
She never existed. And she's still a Mary-Sue plot device. So it's not like I care what she's going to be. If people want to argue how significant she is, then yeah, let's wait for the game. Because so far, no one gives a damn to mention or remember her.
