Moochieh32 676 Posted October 7, 2015 Wouldn't it be cool if a segment of Kingdom Hearts 3 included an intense, heated fight between Sora and Riku like KH1 had? If so, it'd also be their 3rd battle, with the 1st and 2nd near the end of KH1. Riku would get strongly possessed by Master Xehanort and he would go after Sora and his friends, including Kairi. Wouldn't it be epic, as soon as the battle starts, a new remaster of Forze Del Male plays and nostalgic images of that treacherous battle from the first game starts flashing in your head? Would you be excited, or scared? I mean, Kingdom Hearts got kinda difficult over the years and now that Riku is confirmed a keyblade master, he's bound to have new tricks up his sleeve if this battle were to happen. 3 Riku21Terr, The Transcendent Key and Trece the Xam ( ▀ ͜͞ʖ▀) reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bartholomew W 67 Posted October 7, 2015 While this sounds cool, its impossible for Riku to get possesed by Xehanort as of DDD. 1 Movies798 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Psychic_Ketchup 367 Posted October 7, 2015 I'd rather see a Riku vs Sora, where Sora is the one possessed. It'd be a nice callback (maybe have Forze del Male mixed with Sora's theme), and it's slightly more plausible. 5 The 13th Kenpachi, LETTERSE7EN, Aile and 2 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's too late for that, Riku is too good, he used to be arrogant and wanted to obtain the power of darkness, but that was only in KH1, Riku changes quite a bit in further titles. Basically, your idea is cool, but highly improbable. I'd rather see a Riku vs Sora, where Sora is the one possessed. It'd be a nice callback (maybe have Forze del Male mixed with Sora's theme), and it's slightly more plausible. This is by far more likely. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Solstice 749 Posted October 7, 2015 We had a metric ton of Riku fights, we don't need anymore. Kh1: 3 if you count the duel riku KHCom: (4 as sora. Two as real Riku.) Days: 1 Recoded: 4 riku has received a butt kicking too many times Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elast0 147 Posted October 7, 2015 I really want Sora vs Riku in KH3. I doubt Riku can be possessed but it could be a part of Sora's mark of mastery to fight Riku. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aqua7KH 5,395 Posted October 7, 2015 We've already fought him a bunch of times. Plus for Riku to be possessed again it'll be kind of an insult to his character. What I'd love to see is him fight possessed Sora. It would be very interesting to see Sora possessed, by Xehanort of Vanitas(if there's a reason for Vanitas to be able to possess Sora) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hero of Light XIV 2,381 Posted October 7, 2015 The idea of a battle sounds cool, but what you described has already been done and done again to death. I think the last thing we need to see is Riku getting possessed by Master Xehanort AGAIN after we just learned that he can't be possessed by him. We'll have plenty of epic battles, and if anything Forze Del Male will likely be reorchestrated for Ansem's boss battle. Again, a Riku battle might be nice, but I don't see an absolute need for it. There's no point in making him an enemy again at this point. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Headphone Jack 1,147 Posted October 7, 2015 it'd be pretty cliche at this point. also if Riku were to get possessed then that would just undo what little character development he's gone through since the first game so it's probably best if we don't tread into "friend vs. friend" territory again. they did it in KH1 and that was good enough.

Kalebninja 188 Posted October 8, 2015 We don't need a forced plot point just to fight riku. If the story calls for it then it'll happen. It wouldnt be cool to fight him without any real reason to and it would be lame if it were because he were possessed again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingdomHearts3 2,591 Posted October 8, 2015 Not again. It won't happen again. Why? Because Riku developed a certain... resistance to darkness. So they did what the keyblade did and moved down the list. Roxas... now there was a worthy candidate. But, unfortunately, he became too aware of himself and returned to Sora.

The Transcendent Key 12,109 Posted October 8, 2015 While the concept is undeniably cool, it'd kinda make Riku's journey of redemption and triumph over the darkness have been in vain, ya know? The whole point of his journey was so that he could be able to master the darkness within him and come to peace with it. I seriously doubt he'll get possessed again. Young Xehanort himself said that he developed a resistance to darkness! Which is the reason why they weren't able to choose him as a 13th Vessel, which is why Sora was considered for the spot, ya know? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Azure XIII 0 Posted October 9, 2015 I want to see everyone suddenly have a dark aura. When Goofy got hit in the head just before Battle of 1000 Heartless. I really wanted to see King Mickey give in to the darkness for a little bit.But ya Riku vs Sora totally for that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soraspromise 380 Posted October 10, 2015 I can only see Riku & Sora (and Kairi) fighting with each other as practice/training. Or like Riku fighting Vanitas and thinking it's Sora or something. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sora needs 2 pass the mark of mastery....i think in dream drop distance he got done wrong being that he has had his keyblade longer than riku Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
