Posted July 17, 201411 yr I'm wondering what does Roxas mean when he said "Why he picked you?" Did he mean Terra? Post your theory here
July 17, 201411 yr It was a bad translation. "He" should be "it", which refers to the Keyblade. Roxas is questioning why the Keyblade chose Sora. Peace!
July 17, 201411 yr I read somewhere on this site that it was a translation error and that "he" meant the keyblade. Idk lol.
July 17, 201411 yr He meant the Keyblade because apparently Keyblades have their own sex now. But anyway I think it's a misinterpretation and it's meant to be "Why did it pick you". However Terra's Lingering Will does think at first that Sora is Riku.
July 17, 201411 yr Going to repeat my post from here 教えてくれ—おまえが選ばれたわけを The original JP line (above) was passive, "tell me why you were chosen". If you wanted to be super-picky about its meaning, then yeah, keyblade was probably the intended interpretation (Roxas's "why did the keyblade choose me", Xigbar's "I guess that must be why the keyblade chose you"), but it's ambiguous enough that you can more generally read it as "why is Sora the hero when it's brought me nothing but pain and grief???", ie. "chosen one" [選ばれた or similar is used in fantasy fiction for such a concept] (although I must say that it really only seems to be a bunch of guys on GameFAQs who insist on taking the English line super-literally...) The JP did not specify an "it", it did not specify anything in particular; it was left to the player to interpret. Edited July 17, 201411 yr by Ultima Spark
July 17, 201411 yr If we decide to go by the English interpretation instead of Japanese, then I think the most likely meaning would be "Why did Axel choose you?"After all, Axel had been trying to turn Sora into a Heartless in order to get Roxas back. But then he changed his mind and helped Sora instead. Roxas might have felt betrayed. Even Roxas's best friend chose Sora over him. It's possible this is what the English translators were referring to.
July 18, 201411 yr Refer to what Ultima Spark said. It's all just a translation error. "He" is the "Keyblade". Sorry to debunk all of your guys' theories.
July 18, 201411 yr Author Ah I'm sorry I'm just following what Roxas said and I didn't pay attention so sorry again
July 28, 201411 yr I get the feeling the specifics of what he was saying will be revealed in a future game.
July 29, 201411 yr It could have be a translation error or (this is just speculation) he is referring to Riku or DiZ. Both of them did sort of chose Sora over Roxas if you think about it.
