You know what? Fuck you. *untextures your armor*

About Strelitzia’s Killer

KHUX SPOILER ALERT:

So.... y’all remember the shadow figure who called himself “Darkness” and how we all thought that was a silly translation?

Turns out... NOPE! This guy was the one who killed Strelitzia by possessing Ventus!!! He latched himself to Ven and used his body to murder one of the five union leaders...

Then he returned to Ven and stayed hidden in the boy’s heart... and he doesn’t show up again...

UNTIL KINGDOM HEARTS 3!

There is a boss that was never properly explained... the secret boss that appears again in Remind.

Dark Inferno X.

He never really had story importance like other secret bosses... but when you look in the adversaries character list.... that changes. For he described as some form of darkness that erupted from Ven’s heart... and that he named himself “darkness” during the time be met Ven!

IT’S THE SAME DUDE!!!!

So every time we beat the KH3 secret boss... We’re unleashing vengeance on Strelitzia’s killer-

LET’S GO!!

Square Enix said: “Here, have all the power.” And thus used it to make my ship canon.

So did anyone else cry while playing as Mickey in Remind? Cuz I sure did, pulled right at my heart strings...

“I am a keyblade master!”

YES YOU FUCKING ARE MICHAEL MOUSE!

I am SO excited for the KH3 Re:Mind DLC, but can we talk about this section of the Re:Mind trailer for a bit? I'll be overanalyzing the hell out of this 2-second segment and I'm most likely jumping the gun with assumptions but these are my current thoughts and I wanna get them out.

First and foremost, Sora literally said that "everyone told me I should follow my heart" and he's following his heart which took him straight to Riku's heart. It doesn't get any more straightforward than that folks. I have a theory that this is how Riku gets summoned to Yozora's World in the possible next game but I'll save the theories for later. When I first watched this trailer I screamed so hard when Sora said that. After that whole paopu fruit scene, I desperately needed this.

Aside from the obvious, did anyone else notice Riku's Dive to the Heart had Ansem, Mickey and Namine? While it makes sense that all three are in his heart (Mickey is his close ally, Ansem had a hold on his heart and he now feels obligated to take care of Namine for Repliku's sake) the complete absence of Sora and Kairi immediately drew my attention.

Kairi's absence, to me, makes sense. Kairi and Riku never felt like friends, even all the way back in KH1 Kairi wanted to steal the raft and leave Riku behind since she could sense his growing jealousy and anger and Riku used Kairi as a tool to make Sora feel bad for choosing Donald and Goofy as his new friends. Throughout the series there really aren't many if any moments where Riku and Kairi bond together. Even in KH3, Kairi left Riku out of the paopu fruit sharing (Sure she says that Riku wanted time to himself but she waited for that exact moment to share a fruit with Sora, she could've waited for Riku) and Riku barely reacted when Kairi got yeeted to oblivion by Xehanort (but immediately reacted when Sora got blown back). Their friendship seems to have gotten nowhere and the two almost act like strangers. I think its safe to assume that they're just "friends" because they're friends with Sora thus her absence makes sense.

Sora's absence from Riku's heart, however, makes absolutely no sense. It's been strongly hinted and damn near confirmed that Sora is Riku's most precious person. He has gone through so much to keep Sora safe, from watching over him as he slept for an entire year and challenging Roxas and Xion in order to get his memories back, hiding himself from Sora because he was ashamed he took Ansem's form despite knowing Sora desperately wanted to see him (and he most likely also wanted to see him), and even going as far as becoming his dream eater and defending the sleeping Sora with all his might against the Organization, and finally in KH3 taking on the giant Heartless Tornado/Tower all by himself to protect Sora. Then there have been subtle hints of Riku hiding his true feelings for Sora, from the scene in DDD where Quasimodo (or was it Pheobus?) says that Riku keeps a lot bottled up inside, and even KH2's Passion/Sanctuary being written about Sora and Riku's reunion (I need more affection than you know). Even in the Re:Mind trailer you can see the visible hurt in Riku's face when he tells Aerith how much they've been looking for Sora and still weren't able to find him.

The fact that Sora is missing from Riku's heart tells me that he is hiding his true feelings of Sora. There is no way that Sora would not have a place in Riku's heart, absolutely no way. Sora is Riku's most precious person, even if its not directly stated (but still heavily implied) we can tell by Riku's actions and words that Sora is his most precious person.

In Sora's Dive to the Heart, Kairi, Riku, Donald and Goofy all exist and have equal parts. It tells us that the people closest to that person's heart (whether good or bad as shown by Ansem making an appearance in Riku's heart) should all exist.

Kairi doesn't appear that close to Riku so her absence makes sense. Sora, on the other hand, should have had his own little bubble next to Mickey's though honestly I believe he should take up the other half of Riku's heart. Riku's heart has been the subject of discussion since KH1 but it was never shown until now and I find it extremely telling that the one person he focuses 99% of his energy on is missing, but somehow Namine whom he barely interacted with, and whom Nomura confirmed Riku feels obligated to take care of because of his clone's will, has made it to his heart? It makes me believe that Riku has a hidden heart underneath which is where Sora's place is. The heart inside he's been hiding the entire series. I hope we get to see it unlocked one day.

here is my very self indulgent kh3 re:mind bingo board.

just a few more days and I am going crazy over here waiting! nomura have mercy!

Soriku dood? Soriku dood.
