Now the image of AnsemRiku waving the flowery Keyblade around won't go out of my head. ;-; And then Mickey entering the room and being all: O___O; "Riku, have you been exposed to the darkness again?" Now I wish that I could draw/ animate.... D:
If KH3 is gonna be on the PS3, I'd love for them to take advantage of that and have like, a Pixar world. :D Excluding Finding Nemo. Dx |
I'd love a Finding Nemo world except... then it'd be another swimming world and NO NO NO NEVER AGAIN.
Toy Story would be so awesome. Or the Incredibles omg. Hell, even Ratatouille would be cool. XD Cooking minigames! |
Yeah, that's exactly my point. D:< And though clownfish Sora would be cute, there's no way he could use the Keyblade.
I can imagine that; Sora & co. being rodent-sized and helping to cook stuff. XD Monsters Inc. could be interesting too- you could fit the Heartless in there some way or another. XD Out of all of them, I think a Toy Story world would be most likely to feature in the next game. :P |
Especially if there's a chance to tie it in with Toy Story 3 marketing, even if only somewhat. :P

hm lets see.. an axel themed banner? what kind of theme do u mean (cuz theres a million ways i could go about doing that lol)
i really think that a possibility for KH3 will be Kairi and Riku in ur party and possibly even interchangeable as playable characters ^_^. as for explaining keyblades, i want to understand what the deal was with KH2 where u fight xigbar on that mountain in the mulan world for whatever reason he has the soul eater :\ anyone else ever wonder about that? |
:O That was Riku you fought. Later on you run into Xigbar but the fight up on the mountain was with Riku. He just didn't want you to know it was him.
|
idk. the character didnt have the riku/ansem body type it was small and slender like xigbar. and besides the gang chases him all the way down the mountain back into the city. riku was there previously, but now its just xigbar the whole time. besides think for a moment xigbar was always messing with sora's head so it makes sense that he would want sora to think for a moment that he was riku so he would chase him right into that boss fight lol.
|
Except as far as we know, he can't use the keyblade.
And Xigbar is *really* noticeable even with his hood up. His stance is fairly striking and the shoulder blades of his jacket go out more than everyone else's--I haven't played KH2 in a while but I'm fairly certain he only appears later in that world. |
Nah, I think it was Riku, and Xigbar happened to be in the same place. The Emperor is visited by a man in a black robe, who we know is Riku due to the fact that the Emperor mentions something about him warning them about one of the dragons being turned into a Heartless. Also, I dunno if Xigbar's ever seen Riku fight, so how he'd be able to imitate Riku's fighting style (and dark-type attacks) is a mystery. :3 When Sora and the guys meet Xigbar, he's facing the Emperor's chamber, as if he's about to go in there rather than coming out, so that eliminates the prospect of him being the one who warned the Emperor.
As for an Axel banner... Hmmm... A fire theme would be cool, but also quite generic, as would black and red. You could do something with him and Roxas (possibly Xion too?) and sea salt ice cream. :3 |
It was Riku in the Land of Dragons, not Xigbar. Only Riku wields the Soul Eater, or even can, except for when its copied by Zexion in reChain of Memories and the Riku Replica. Not to mention that it was the hooded Riku body. If it was meant to be Xigbar, it would have been revealed later on. There was no reason for trickery there since Sora wasn't even suppose to know Riku was in the larger Ansem body.
|
...ok i agree with some of that but let me point out a few things first just to say my share:
firstly @ lightning (prev page): they knew how riku fought because of CoM so... *slap ur logic* lol next: the soul eater isnt exactly a keyblade, its kind of an it is but it isnt thing. it was just the weapon riku had found in the first game. otherwise why would he have even needed sora's keyblade? next: if riku's been "helping" sora the whole time in KH2, why the hell would he decide to fight him and put his life in jeopardy? next: the gang chased the "figure" sora fought all the way down the mountain into the city where xigbar was. also u dont exactly "know" that it was riku the emperor was talking about. all he said was that the guy was rude, which xigbar is definitely lol. and ya never know; maybe xigbar was going back to tell them it was getting closer or something. and sora called out to him thinking it was riku. honestly the only reason u dont actually see them chase him down the mountain is due to gameplay meets cutscenes but keep in mind they never actually lost sight of the guy. next: back to the soul eater. would it really be so crazy to think that the organization made a replica of it? they did get enough data to make the clone so why not? the clone's soul eater was a replica after all. next: and also if u pay attention while u fight the "stranger" lets call him, he doesnt exactly fight like riku does. riku is very deliberate and quick in his movements, whereas the person u fought holds the sword like riku, but then uses it rather clumsily and carelessly, in a casual manner. and just to put to rest a question about my earlier comment of : he could be warning them again, remember, the organization has no real love of the heartless, nor are they inherently evil (e.g. axel, roxas) they all just play the game so to speak and seek to be whole. they arent actually hurting anybody, they just kind of toy with the heartless while sora keeps killing them, which is what they want to begin with. *pants, too much typing lol* i think i covered everything lol. if i am somehow indeed wrong, then the KH crew put some serious holes in this fight/ chase/ another fight sequence. almost like the holes in dot hack: GU's storyline lol. but im not goin into that here xD oh one more note!: i think at the end of CoM the soul eater becomes the way of dawn, since riku kind of mentions it when Diz asks him what path he will take. idk that could be nothing but figured i would mention it anyway. EDIT: oh ya and final final note i swear lol: nobodies can use dark powers lol. thats how they AND riku AND DiZ were moving around with their little swirling portal thingies lol. and roxas even says he's "someone from the dark" and the bio even says : keyblade wielder and denizen of the dark. *SUPER SHOT ALL YOS LOGIC* again if i am somehow indeed wrong about all of this, then the KH crew really effed up here! lol EDIT2: ok guys i even just watched a video on youtube of it. now unless the camera subtracts like 40 pounds, the guy i just saw sora fight was super skinny, like xigbar skinny, with skinny arms and slightly broad shoulders, just like xigbar's. soooo... yeah to me that pretty much sums it up (along with all of my wonderful above points lolz) |
I would love to be added :D
ive never tried the latest game because my ps2 is broken and i cant play it but going to get a new one soon hopefully >3 btw have been a fan since the first game appeared. |
no problem ^_^ crystal will add u when she gets a chance. welcome and try not to get mixed in with the above argument ^^^^^ lol.

In 358/2, news originally comes back from Castle Oblivion (via Dusks) saying EVERYONE is dead there (which we know to be untrue). Thus people are surprised when Axel surfaces--so the ONLY people who should know details about what happened during CoM are Axel, Namine, DiZ and Riku since apparently said details are few and far between. Xigbar is not on that list and he's not "close" enough with Axel to get the info, imo. (Not to mention, not seeing it himself would make it super hard to imitate Riku's attacks.) srsly, my logic is quite sound there. ;( Quote:

Also what? Xigbar was warning the Emporer? Isn't that counter-productive? Remember, the Organization is bringing Heartless into the various worlds to collect hearts. So basically, they need the Heartless to steal the hearts of the denizens of each world and THEN they need Sora to come along and defeat the Heartless. Running down a mountain to tell the Emporer "LOOK OUT A GIANT HEARTLESS IS COMING" just... makes no sense. Why would he give forewarning? He doesn't WANT there to be any time for some sort of evacuation or defensive measures. There's absolutely no reason Xigbar would warn anyone. He's an asshat, sure, but he also wouldn't go out of his way to make his own job harder. o_O; Quote:

Spoiler:
That said! Remember, Riku is in a totally different body at this point. Sure, around now he's probably been running around as Ansem for a while now and you could argue it "feels natural" for him but fact remains he's still using a body that he didn't grow up with. o_O; I imagine how he looks when he fights is different. He doesn't have the same physique and stature that he did when he originally used it. Of course he's gonna use it differently. Also the "clumsy and casual" manner could very well be Riku throwing the fight. :) After all, we know he doesn't want to defeat Sora. Quote:

ok i do agree with u on that point, but think: thats like saying, "i dont want the store clerk to know that im stealing these apples" then going to the counter with the apples, then running away. it just makes no sense. if riku didnt want sora to know, he wouldnt have appeared in the first place. thats why he was helping them all along without being seen. and i think the organization just ignored him mostly cuz he wasnt really a threat until the end. he was kind of an "out of play" character. basically in all logical sense, it doesnt make sense for riku to be there at that fight. and also since he was running away up the mountain (assuming that it could have been riku that was seen) if he was done there couldnt he have just warped out and been done with it? so again, this makes no sense unless riku is SERIOUSLY THAT RETARDED which i guess in all fairness he is pretty stupid lol. |
Quote:
Lets alremeber that riku was apart of the organazation, even though he was helping sora he still needed to look likehe was helping the organazation. thats probably the onlty reason he battled sora. The only reason Riku went in the first place was to warn them of a attack. |
Quote:
well that first sentence is true :P as for the following paragraph: .....what?? im sorry thats not even in the ballpark. 1.riku was not apart of the organization 2.the organization was aware of him as a potential threat 3. he did not help them at all or look like he was helping them. sora just got confused because of all the black coats. thats like picking a person out of a lineup in a black room. |
Woaaaaaaah, so much has happened whilst I've been away. o: We went to a country fair thing, and they had ducks for sale and EVERYTHING. I wanted to buy one and call it Demyx, but my parents wouldn't let me. ;-;-;-;-;
I thought that Riku wore a black robe akin to those of the Orgy so he and Mickey could easily go about unnoticed (I mean, the Dusks etc. mistook photographs of Roxas for the real one, they're not exactly members of Mensa) in their quest to awaken Sora/ find Ansem the Wise. Though what was said about them enabling their wearers to travel through darkness makes sense too. XD The reason why he fought Sora on the mountain was because it was easier to do so than talk to him, if you take the factor of Riku's appearance into consideration. He could have easily hidden behind a rock and come out once Sora and co. had passed, thus allowing him to come up 'behind'. Regardless of whether or not it was Riku or Xigbar running up the mountain at the start of that story arc, if Riku hadn't intervened, then Sora would be spending forever searching for someone who wasn't there. And maybe Riku wanted to see his friend again, even if he didn't want Sora to see him, especially after all the effort he went to in order to wake him up (Roxaaaas ;-; ). He's only been in Ansem's form for what, a week (I'll have to check the timeline to see if Roxas' 6 Days in KH2 come immediately after his defeat, or if there're a few days inbetween) plus however long it's taken Sora to get to The Land Of The Dragons II. I doubt he's done much fighting, either. Anyhoo, those are my few cents~ |
Quote:
again, h-h-how does the whole robe traveling thing make sense? lol i just dont get that one i guess. as for roxas, im not sure but i would imagine he was there for awhile seeing as how he was very well acquainted with everyone in the town. im not sure if DiZ could just implant friends y'know? i mean i guess its possible with the whole sora thought namine was kairi thingy in CoM, but... idk as for the riku/xigbar argument, iiiiiiiiiii dont even care anymore lol. i should just make a hack match of riku vs xigbar to take out my frustration on :P so does anyone have anything new to talk about? lol |

Okay..a new topic..How's this? Favorite Summon from the Kingdom Hearts series (not counting Cloud in CoM)? Mine would have to be the Genie, especially in KHII. |
lol yeah I don't care enough to keep arguing the Xigbar/Riku thing. XD;
Anyway! Favourite summon. Um. I honestly never really used them much. Might say Simba in CoM just because he and Cloud (who apparently doesn't count XD) are the only ones I ever kept in my deck. I rarely bothered with summons in KH2. |
