→ Kairi (am I the only one who likes her? T_T)
Your not the only one who likes Kairi :D I'm even getting a Kairi figure =] |
Thank goodness. \o/ There's so much hate for Kairi in the fandom but I've always really liked her.
I want the Kairi figure. :O I might get it this month at the con I'm going to. Though then I'd also want to get a Sora figure as well to complete the set. 8D |
I was wondering when a new KH club would pop up :D

Quote:
May not be getting a figure. However, I don't really own any figures. XD; |
Kairi wasn't really my favourite in the first game, but I liked her a lot better in II. I guess it's just because she didn't actually do that much in the first game, other then be kidnapped and rescued.
I loved the part in II where she had the keyblade as was fighting too \o/ |
Quote:
EDIT: Lightning, you could have just said the color, giving me the hex code thing was a pain in the butt. I sorted it though xD |
Well, considering she'd never fought before, I didn't think she was that bad. Fared better than I would have. XD And note that Riku was fighting just as well as she was during that, haha. :C
Also sorry, I figured the specific hex code would be easier. XD; |
Quote:
|
We are alike Rhiannon-Chan! XD
But the real question is, where did her keyblade come from? Riku pulled it out of his ass! And why did Kairi get a keyblade? Must be the cool thing now... |
Hey, be careful. ._. Not everyone shares your opinions, you know--I honestly prefer Kairi to Riku (since I cannot STAND him XD) but I don't outright say one is better than the other. :[
Sora can call his keyblades from thin air. I assume Riku can do the same and that's all he did for Kairi. XD; |

Sorry! I tend to get pretty sarcastic, didn't mean to offend anyone.... =[
So on a different subject: Who is your favorite Organization XIII member? |
Who is your favorite Organization XIII member?
Zexion, Demyx, Leaxaus, Vexen (Only one who likes Vexen..), Saix and Xigbar. |
Marluxiaaaaaa. ♥ He's a bastard and I love him. 8D After him, Larxene for mostly the same reasons. I used to really like Demyx too, and I still do but just not as much. I'm pretty neutral to most other members though.
|
Roxas <33 It's weird, I used to really hate Roxas (particularly when I heard his voice) but lately, I've started to like him more and more. Part of it is the all the mystery around him, so my opinion might change once I've played 358/2 Days XD
|
I like Axel, Roxas, Demyx, Zexion, Marluxia, Xemnas
The only reason I like Xemnas is because of his anagram Spoiler:
But most of you should know that xD |
My favourite is proberly Roxas!!!! ( yes i am a roxas fan) but i also like Axel,Demyx, and Zexion the other members are ok but them 4 are proberly my favourite!
Even though Namine isn't a member she is also one of my favourite characters in the game! |
Quote:
|
Quote:
And yes. I've always been a Roxas fan... but the mystery is what keeps me drawn to him. I like Axel for the main fact that he is so much like Reno from FF VII, and I also like Demyx alot. |
I didn't mind Jesse McCartney's voice acting. I didn't really know who he was before Roxas anyway, so... 8D;
If there was one voice actor I DID hate though... ugh, it would be the person who played Aerith's voice in KH2. ;_; Mandy Moore was great in the first one but UGH, the voice actress for KH2 and AC was just awful. |
Yeah, I only knew of Jesse McCartney by name before KH2. But... I still didn't really care for him XD;
Speaking of voice actors, I hope they get a new one for Sora by the next game he's in. You know, one that's a male? Haley Joel Osment did a good job with him until now, but Sora is like... 15, almost 16 (right?) so, I think he needs somebody with a deeper voice. XD |
But... but then it would just be confusing. I mean, his voice already broke. It'd just happen again and that would be weird. XD
|
Joining!
What KH games have you played?: All What Font do you want your name in?: Times New Roman What color do you want your name in?: Blue Do you want your name Bold or Italics?: Bold Who is your favorite Organization XIII member? Marluxia because only really psycho-paths can be intimidating while attacking with a pink scythe and petals. |
s;klfjdsfds \o/ Another Marluxia fan, yay!
I agree in full on the psychopath remark. 8D |

Well, for some reason he's 15 in KH2. :( I still think that's ridiculous since the events of KH should have taken quite a few months in my eyes. Sure, everything in Castle Oblivion probably took a few days overall or something, plus the canon year where Naminé pieced Sora's memories back together. And then KH2 HAD to have taken some time. <_<; But I don't know how Sora can still just be 15 in KH2.
|
Yeah, exactly. And not to mention, Riku and Sora are a year apart, but in KH2 Riku is like, 19 or something. He's waaay taller, even when he's back to his regular self. There's no way he is 16 :/
Kairi, on the other hand, looks about right age wise, at least in KH2. In KH, she did look slightly under 14, but I guess she had a growth spurt between 1 and 2 XD |
None of them looked their age in KH1 except maybe Riku. But I definitely agree that he looks about 19 at the end of KH2. XD Kairi looks the right age in KH2 as well, and compared to her Sora looks okay, but omg Riku you aged too much. >:O Maybe if he cut his hair it wouldn't be so weird.
|
Sorry about the long wait Gummy. Some stuff happened at school and it's my birthday 12th May, so I had to sort out a party xD Not only this, but I am Cosplaying as Lettuce from Tokyo Mew Mew, But yeah, that meant getting on the PC was nearly impossible. But i'm back now, There might be a wait for some people, because May is a very busy month for me. Loads of people have birthdays, loads of parties, Cosplaying, and school is being annoying because of some personal stuff, but then again, i'm helping Namine66 do some personal stuff, isn't that right Namine66, I enjoy sorting out her problem, it's not much of a problem, but fun to sort out never the less.
Anyway, rant over. Welcome aboard Gummy. Sorry you had to wait so long :( I'll try harder next time xD Hmmm... looks like the topic has changed to voice actors, I like all the voices in all honesty... but Roxas's is a bit annoying haha xD |
You know, it's kinda funny I learned this year, a couple months ago, that Jessie was Roxas, when in fact, I dislike him in general. However, I think he does fine as Roxa's voice actor. I never would have guessed it was him though. As far as all of the voice actors, mmm... Sora could change, I guess. I'm content with them all really.
|
I think Sora, Riku, Kairi and Roxas voice actors were fine in KH2 execpt Aerith's voice actor for the second. Sora's voice in KH1 was suprise because I looked at the instruction's book for KH1, and his age said he was 14 0_0 I mean, he's voice for the first game was really kidish voice then instead having a deep voice for a 14 year old kid, no offence.
|
Well, my brother is 14 and he still sounds like a kid. :D His voice hasn't deepened yet. Sora's also quite short in the first one so it just looks like he hadn't matured yet. XD;
|
What I don't get it how he matured while being trapped in a pod for an entire year.
|
Well, he was kind of in a coma is probably the best way to say it. XD His body was changing and growing but his mind sort of came to a halt or whatever for the year.
|
But that's ridiculous XD; I'm 14, and I don't sound that young at all. And besides, Sora is supposed to be 15, at the youngest. He has no excuse XD
At least Sora grew a few inches in that year, unlike Riku who grew a foot or two. And Kairi who grew... elsewhere :x |
Well my brother sounds even younger and he's 14, so it IS possible. XD;
|
Since when did this become the Puberty FC? XD Is anyone else here anxious for news on 358/2 Days?
|
...He started it! Probably. XD
Anyway, I REALLY want more news of 358/2. Last I heard, it was slated for Japanese release this summer, so to not have heard anything about it in ages is worrisome. I've been so looking forward to playing it. DD: |
Quote:
|
I doubt they will. D8 Squeenix doesn't like to release games on multiple platforms.
I have a DS already, so I'm pretty much planning to preorder and import the Japanese version of 358/2 as soon as I can, but I'm waiting on getting a PSP until BBS comes out. I'm hoping they'll come out with an exclusive PSP branded with KH. :B If they don't, I'll just pick up a PSP anywhere and... well, I haven't decided if I'll import or not in that case. |
No more Puberty FC? D:
Kidding xD I have a PS1x2 PS2 PSP Wii PC x5 (Only 1 is mine) DS DS lite SO no matter what platform they come out on, i'm fine xD Well... if it comes out on Xbox or PS3 then... ah man... oh well heehee! I WANT 358/2 Days and Birth by Sleep, I dunno about Coded, Mobile games aren't that good anyway... it will cost to download and I wont ever go on it anyway... I leave that game out... maybe... xD |
Well, Coded is being created for a mobile phone that doesn't exist yet. So I assume said phone's capabilities are on part with a GBA or something, I dunno. The preliminary screenshots and stuff looked pretty damn good. XD Not to mention I'm sure SOMEONE will figure out how to emulate it on the computer or something.
I'm fully covered for ANY platform. Like I said, I'll be buying a PSP for BBS once I find out if it'll have its own PSP or not. It's the only console a KH game could possibly come out on that I don't already own. I'm covered. \o/ *desperately wants KH3 for PS3* |
I'm so mad that KH3 is only coming out for the overly-priced PS3! Take a cue from the "Tales of" games and release for the 360 too!
|
KH3 hasn't been announced for PS3. We still have no idea what console it'll be on. :x I just hope it's for PS3 since I already have one and then I won't have to get used to a new control system... XD;
Pretty much all "Tales of" games that were on other systems made their way to the PS3 anyway. I full expect the same from Vesperia after it's out in Japan a while. (We may not get the Sony ports but Japan does.) 8( I can sort of see Square just deciding to skip the porting business and bring it out right on the PS3. |
I want KH3 to come out on the Wii!!!
I don't have a PS3 and they are really expensive :( Imagen swiping the heartless and nobody's with your Wii Remote! You'd be all *Swish swish* and they'd be all like x.x :) |
Okay... this is like my 5th try trying to post this, lets hope PC can stay alive long enough this time.
(Of pfft Erica, it was totally you who started it *fish'd*) Anywaaay...I doubt it will, since the first two came out on the PS2 it'd make more sense for them to release the third on a PlayStation as well D: Hopefully by then the PS3 will have come down and price and you can get one. I can't wait for 358/2 Days <33 It looks so good, playing as Roxas is going to be so awesome. And Organization XIII is probably my favourite part of the KH games, so it'll be awesome to have a game devoted semi-mainly to them. BBS looks pretty awesome too; it seems like it'll be more mature then the other games, so that should be a good change. As for Coded... yeah, I have no chance for playing that unless somebody emulates it XD; |

Welcome to the FC Kaiyori!
I don't want any games to come out on PS3 D: Just kidding... I hope the price goes down on the PS3 though... I can't afford it D: I can't wait for 358/2 Days and Birth By Sleep to come out xD |
Well right now I'm saving for a PS3 and i will have enough money soon for it and five games.
So it better come out on PS3 D: |
hi
I know it's coming out on the DS and PSP , not sure about PS3 at the moment. It's also coming out on Mobile, the game is called Coded. I'm not sure if i want it to come out on mobile though because i think i preferred it on Ps2 but i dunno we will have to wait and see. :) |
I think I may just get a PS3 simply for the game. o_o'' I'm looking forward to all of the games really. Mainly for birth by Sleep, I really want to learn more about the past and how everything clicks. Though, I'm not sure if I'll ever play Coded. XD; Just have to wait and see about that one.
Also, Rhiannon-chan, I'd like to request a change in my member listing design... → Bold → Steel blue a.k.a hex triplet #4682B4 Thank you! ;D |
Your name in the list had been edited to your liking Beachboy.
Anyone else want a name edit while i'm at it? Don't hesitate to ask! OFFTOPIC: I know that this had nothing to do with KH, but at the same time, it does, see... ima link them together! The World Ends With You. That game is awesome, wait, linking time, it is so simular to KH but with a diffrent storyline... Neku = [Looks like] Sora Joshua = [Looks like/Act's like (Kinda)] Riku Shiki = [Looks like/Acts like] Kairi Hints on Neku/Joshua and Neku/Shiki Remind you or anything yet? NEKU AND JOSHUA ARE LIEK... RIVALS I just see the connection haha! Anyhow... if you wanna reply to this... do it in an offtopic thingy [Like I have] so we don't break any rules hahaha!

Coded may have been halted. :/ Squeenix recently pulled a lot of mobile titles out of production and they didn't specify if KH:Coded was one of them, but considering they're not taking anymore innovative leaps and are sticking to the types of games they've always made, I'm not sure what to think.
It's the one I was looking forward to the least anyway, do I'm not too terribly saddened if it's cancelled or delayed, but... still. XD [off-topic?]There are resemblances but... I don't think Joshua and Riku are at all alike. Granted I dislike both of them, but the only similarity is that they have the same colour hair. @[email protected]; Their personalities are completely different and they don't even look the same, really. I see the physical resemblance between Sora and Neku. Also, to newest member-to-be: I love your usernaaaaaaaaaaaaame. ♥ |
oh yeah forgot this
favorite characters Marluxia Saix Vexen ( am i the only one who likes him?) Sora Terra ( he was so hard to beat) Pete Axel hated characters Riku ( he acts like a showoff at times Tron ( i could barely keep him alive while fighting MCP Simba ( same reason as Tron except against Groundshaker and last but not least i HATE!! Roxas and Demyx i dont support any pairings |
Total joinage. I would prolly be playing KH2 but i finished it a while back >.>

Welcome to the FC Graceful Assassin and Izy!
If KH3 or any other KH games come out on PS3 I'll have to get one haha xxx I can't miss out on any KH action, any RikuxSora hints, and bloody hell, 358/2 Days will be chocked full of AxelxRoxas [Think about it... it is all about Roxas, and Axel and Roxas were best buddies in the Organization] Omigod! We have like... 13 people yeah? It's like ORGANIZATION 13 LULZ |
man, i don't know anything about KH3, but i'm getting hints that its coming out on PS3? That is prolly one of the most unfair things i've ever heard.
I'm not even kidding, me and my friend promised that we'd both get it as soon as it came out and it turns out neither of us have a PS3... My heart is now broken |
Quote:
I'll be heartbroken if it comes out on PS3, but for KH, I will buy a PS3! Haha xxx |
Oh geez, i would too if i had enough money. but jobless = no KH3
i don't have a Wii either, geez i dearly wish that it would come out on PS2 :[ |
Quote:
im definitely getting 352/2 days i wondering about the 14th member. as much as i hate Roxas i do look forward to his part in the story. ( still dont like him though) |
My friend and I agreed to pool our money to buy a PS3 if KH3 came out for it. Then my dad got the family a PS3 for Christmas so I don't have to but... still. Kingdom Hearts is one series where I'd buy any console just to play one of the games.
|
I agree with Lightning. Kingdom Hearts could come out on anything and I would buy it.
I'm hoping it does come out on PS3 for the fact that I have 2 other games I want coming out for it. XD Does anyone have any predictions on what KH3 will be about? |
Well, the only lead that they really gave on it was that message in a bottle at the end of KH2. And since 358/2 Days and Birth by Sleep happen before KH2, we know that that scene can't be about them. So I don't know, hopefully something to do with Org XIII, even though they're gone XD;
|
Although you do make a very good point Aere, those videos of KH3 that are going around the internet are misleading. If I never played KH2, I wouldn't even think Sora is going to be part of KH3.
|
The thing is, Nomura stated in an interview that he feels Sora's story is over or... something like that. So Sora very well might NOT be the main character anymore. Does that mean he won't be in the series at all or that he'll just let another hero take over? :B
Also, not necessarily KH3-related, but close enough. Has everyone seen the in-store trailer for BBS? :O |
Ohh, I see. So, that bottle might just be symbolizing that Sora's adventures continue, but not necessarily in the games? So, who do y'all think will be the new hero, or do you think it'll be a new character entirely?
And I hadn't seen that video, thanks XD; @ Gummy: Um, I wasn't going off the fake KH3 videos XD; |
Lighting: OMG :O I can't believe someone found a Trailer from Japan! It look's such a awesome game, to bad it won't be for the Wii and I don't even have a DS :(
|
I don't know how I feel about Sora not being a character anymore in KH3. I do think that I love the 3 new characters in BBS, But I'm pretty sure they won't be the main characters for KH3 for the fact BBS takes place before KH2. And by the talk of it, I would almost think it took place before KH1...
And Ven looks almost identical to Roxas. What is everyone's thoughts on that? |
Hey, has anyone read the Volume 2 Manga of KH2 yet? I haven't read it yet, only saw some pages in a flash.
|
Quote:
|
I don't even know what I think about Ven and Roxas. :D I hate guessing so I'm content just reading the theories of others and waiting for the game itself.
