358/2 Days Xion's fate

I heard a rumor about Xion and this is what I learned:
She was made in order for the org to gather more hearts
She was shaped after Sora's strongest memory: Kairi
She had to absorb Roxas to become complete.
Roxas ended up absorbing her and gained the ability to duel wield.
Is this fact or just a wild theory?

 

Try playing the game and see.

 

I would but unfortunately I don't have a DS :(
This is why I wanted to know about the plot.

 

I was just teasing you, haha.

I would honestly tell you the answer if I knew it. I mean, I'm playing the game and all, but since I'm not Japanese, I have no idea what they're saying. xD

The theory you put forth does sound a bit weird, but it sounds slightly possible. Although the idea of absorption is a bit creepy.

But that could explain the importance of Roxas' Oathkeeper and Oblivion.

 

Yep it sounds pretty creepy but remember Zexion getting absorbed in CoM?
I think it is the same thing.
P.S. The reason why the absorbing was evil/important was because if Roxas was absorbed then Sora would never awake.

 

Actually, the Riku Replica killed Zexion. o-o

 

Really?
I thought he was absorbing Zexion with that choke.
I also remembered Axel stated something about Repliku getting more power after killing Zexy.

 

Repliku actually absorbed Zexion's life force to become stronger. He didn't absorb Zexion himself

 

There is a thread on KHinsider about this. It may contain spoilers:http://forums.khinsider.com/spoilers/128190-spoilers-358-2-days-what-xion-actually.html

What I am about to say contains spoilers so beware....



Personally, the ending they are talking about in that thread doesn't seem Kingdom Hearts material. They were actually saying Xion's appearance changes to that of Sora... meaning she actually became male. O_o
I don't know about you, but that seems pretty fishy (and disturbing). They also said that Xemnas created Xion as a puppet just so she can be absorbed into Roxas. The apparent goal behind that was to "complete" Roxas (sort of how Sora needed Roxas to be complete) so that the Organization could have their very own keyblade master and Sora would remain sleeping. In other words, Xemnas is even more evil than we thought before.
That would work, but there's a scene at the beginning of the game that makes that idea seem strange. Here it is:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_mIKHQoqGI&feature=channel_page
At 0:58 and on Xemnas does something to Roxas that mirrors something we've seen between Terra and Ven:

Now, there's tons a theories floating around about Xemnas being connected to Terra. That scene just about proves it. However, if Xemnas is indeed a part of Terra, why on earth would he do something to hurt Roxas (the idea in the KHinsider thread). To me, that doesn't make any sense.
But, then again, I have not found the actual ending anywhere. Has anyone? Until I see it for myself, I will not listen to rumors.

 

The Wiki has the same thing.

Spoiler

It says that Xemnas created Xion out of Sora's leaked memories. SInce Kairi was his strongest memory, she initially resembled Kairi. Xemnas created her to be a replica of Sora because he was unsure he could trust Sora to release enough hearts and complete Kingdom Hearts. Eventually, Kairi starts resembling Sora (i think it was because she was having more of his memories).
Xemnas plans for her to absorb Roxas and become a complete Sora replica. That way, Sora will never awaken and Xemnas will have his own Keyblade master.

Xion supposedly starts doing whatever she can to become whole including absorbing Roxas. I think that she won't have the heart to do it and tries to absorb Sora instead...she probably ends up being absorbed INTO Sora.

 

Wait, so now it is Xion who was supposed to absorb Roxas? Gawd, it changes every time I hear it! Not that I'm saying you're wrong or anything, (anyone could be right at this point) but someone ought to question what is going on here.

 

Basically, Xion is an incomplete replica/doll of Sora, composed of his memories, made by Xemnas. She was shaped by Sora's strongest memory, Kairi. As Namine rebuilds Sora's memories, she starts becoming more and more like the original Sora.

Xemnas' plan was that Xion eventually absorb Roxas and "become" Sora. That way, the true Sora would be stuck in his pod forever and the Organization would still have a keyblade wielder to gather hearts for them.

The revelation of what she is drives Xion nuts, and she tries to kill Roxas. He's forced to kill her and, out of respect, absorbs her remains so she can live on in a way, inside him. Absorbing her gives him the ability to dual wield.

This info was gathered from GameFaqs by people who supposedly beat the game. I've been a member of that site for a while now, so I know about how the community is and what kind of people report these kind of news.

While it *could* be fake, it's most likely true.

Something note is that Days' scenario was written by the same man (Daisuke Watanabe) who wrote CoM's; and this definitely sounds like his work.

Uh, I don't think any of the sources said Xion was MADE to be absorbed into Roxas.

That's just what ends up happening.

 

Oh, so Watanabe wrote CoM as well? Well, that explains the difference in style. Thanks for clearing that up! :) I thought Nomura was writing it. Huh. No wonder that sounds a little strange. There's definitely a difference in their story-writing. I think Nomura focuses a little more about the Disney aspect of the game. Watanabe is certainly much darker. Is he doing BBS or Coded?
So then, nothing else about the ending was mentioned on Gamefaqs? Although the plot twist with Xion was quite a shocker, I would have expected a little bit more (like why Roxas is identical to Ven in BBS, Xemnas and Aqua's armor, etc.).

 

I have to say this...

If this is Xion's fate, Square-Enix, thanks for nothing.
However, it seems like bullshit.

Unless you're the king or queen of gaming, you'd not be in the late part of the game within a day or two of release, unless you're playing it non-stop.
Nothing else has even MENTIONED this rumor except a sudden theory that seems to link really neatly with the rumor mill.

Show me a screenshot of the Male Xion, and I'll believe it.
Right now, I still say she's Kairi's replica, not Sora's. Sora doesn't need another copy, and Dual Wield is not something you get by absorbing someone else.

 

Well, see, Nomura writes the main plot points for ALL the games, the scenario writers just write how they get there (as in, the dialogue, etc), which makes a big difference in the quality of the game's story.

For refference KH1 was written by Watanabe in conjunction with another man named Kazushige Nojima, CoM was written by just Watanabe, and KH2's was just Nojima.

And yes, he's writing the scenario for coded and BBS (thank god).

I don't believe so.

So, not exactly what you'd expect, but i'd say this confirms everything, considering how xion's mecha form looks like sora, roxas absorbs her, etc.

 

Those videos prove only one thing...
Yes, she's absorbed into Roxas.

That robot just looks, to me, like a very good final boss.

Sora = Spiky haired Nobody defeater. Looks kind like Roxas.
Xion = At no time in that entire video sequence, looks like Sora. She still looks like Kairi's Replica to me.

 

The videos also prove that people did get to the end of the game in 2 days.

We'll see if it's all true or not when the game gets released in NA/more information comes out.

Also:

Final boss, first time roxas dual wields in the game

 

Xion reminds me of sephiroth in a way...lol...

But seriously this explains a lot. You can even see it with the keyblades.

Throughout all the trailers, gameplay vids, etc, Roxas has only one keyblade. The only times we see Roxas use two keyblades is apparently after whatever happens in "Days." Even Axel, Roxas' best friend is confused when Roxas pulls out Oathkeeper AND Oblivion. And it requires Sora to be fused with two people in order to have two keyblades...Roxas must have been as well. It also probably explained why he didnt die (even his graveyard was still glowing) perhaps Sora killed the Xion part of Roxas...
