    I haven't finished Reverse-Rebirth yet, but I sorta know the plot. I just don't get why did Axel have Zexion killed? Just because he wanted to? Or had he gotten orders to kill Zexion?
    Yeah, so was there any reason given for that?

    Well in my opinion I think his job is to assassinate the member who betrays the organization and go another path *nod* but when Roxas came he wasn't to sure with that. The other members, I guess he didn't mind but for Axel himself he betrayed the organization and then led himself to death.

    I think it was because, Zexion knew that Axel had opposed the organization by attacking Vexen and Marluxia, and Axel needed to stay in the org., a bit longer

    Actually, I think it was because Zexion was doubting in Axel and could possibly say that he was a traitor along the same levels as Marluxia and Larxene. Though Axel was still loyal to the Organization at the time, it was apparent that the methods he incorporated doing his 'job' as an assassin was obviously going to be scrutinized. In order to sell his story enough to Xemnas, Zexion was a loose piece in the puzzle and so killing him off would ensure that only Axel would survive to relay his side of events. Also, Axel did release Namine and do some deeds that he could be accountable for so getting rid of Zexion in the end made it so no one could counter his word really.

    It was also apparent that both Vexen and Marluxia knew things and were scheming so it would be hard to determine if Zexion also was though in the scene in KH2:FM it becomes apparent he actually told Vexen he did not want to do anything as far as investigating the Superior. Axel would not know that. However, Vexen telling things about Roxas too was not too smart and Zexion was with that group so the trust factor again, because he's a 'schemer' would not be too high. It was a safety precaution in the end. Just as sending Repliku to face Riku was too. He knew Riku would defeat the Replica.

    i think Axel killed him because Zexion might've known that Axel killed Vexen and if Zexion told on him, he might've gotten in trouble. because Vexen wasn't a traitor and Axel only killed him to get closer to Marluxia and Larxene.

    Yep, thats what I think.

    Axel have no excuse for letting Naminé scape and Zexion was the only one who could use that event for his advantage.

    Because Marluxia ordered him to eliminate all traitors.

    Agreed. It was just because it was a safety precaution.

    Zexion and Lexaeus were trying to stop that,Axel knew I think,that's why he had Repliku kill him.

    Though I didn't get the dialogue between Axel and Repliku at all.

    As everybody else said...Axel was just saving himself from the Superior's wrath. Xemnas would've flipped if he knew Axel killed off a senior member (Vexen). Zexion knew, was probably going to tell, and Axel knew that he knew because Vexen was in Zexion's little posy. Lucky for Axel that Riku took care of Lexaeus, because I don't think Axel or Repliku could've taken them both. I think that Lexaeus and Zexion would make the perfect team, perfect combination of brain and brawn. =D
     
  12. I'd say I'll suck it up to him just being a sadistic a-hole, period.

    Really. Stop trying to give a reason.

    Even if you think he did for reasons expressed, it doesn't change the fact that he was obviously smirking like a gleeful child that would put Larxene to shame when killing him. And Vexen. And Repliku was by no means anything to feel threatened about to sent out to be killed. I doubt he knew anything more as he was behind the scenes, and wasn't present at some crucial events with the members, so the best that can be done is confirm the ploy of Marluxia at best. Axel was just having fun playing his games, and kept going. That's it.

    Furthermore, I doubt, I DOUBT, the higher members of the Organization will not be suspicious, with Zexion or not, that he was the only survivor of Castle Oblvion coincidentially, something that has been hintied in the new FM+ scenes of the Org. discussing their plans. To the point, where Xaldin straight up said that he didn't have a problem eliminating the others when ordered to get rid of Roxas. Not to mention in Another Report, that came with the FM+ game in the booklet, has a short story where Xemnas outright punished Axel for letting Naminé go in a scene, and he complained about that he closely escaped with his life. You want to read it, just ask for it. So that's moot as well. There's also the fact, that I can't see Xemnas, or any other members, had not kept in contact from Castle Oblivion to TWTNW with the important studies that were going on in that building.

    So, I'll remain and say he was a complete prick until 358/2 Days, or something else, proves it otherwise :P.

    Do you think is considered a spoiler after three or so years with KH2 out? o.O

    I think I love you. I agree with that more than what I wrote. Then again, I have a severe hate for Axel for killing Zexion...so yeah.

    For someone who hasn't finished the game, yes of course it's a spoiler for me.

    Axel had a feeling Zexion was going to inform the organization of Axel's betrayal when having Vexen killed, so Axel decided for Zexion to get klled by Riku.
     
  17. Xemnas's punishment for Axel letting Naminé escape was crap. The last thing he needed to worry about was Zexion explaining Vexen, since, not only did Zexion not really mind, Axel did so to "catch and kill" the traitors. That's the least of his problems. And again, there's no prove that the members, with the studies of memories in Castle Oblivion, did not keep in contact with those at TWTNW. Not to mention that still doesn't explain Repliku.

    358/2 Days is the only way to go into that.

    Oh.

    Wellz...

    You can't really blame her due to the long time period since CoM came out, though.

    Sorry but the game has been out a severely long time and all you had to do was read the title and move on. There aren't going to be spoiler warnings for a game that is a few years old now. If you don't want spoilers, don't come into the section until after you play the game.
