Hoshiko Hikari 301 Posted July 31, 2013 *Spoiler Warning for KH3, KH3D and Birth by Sleep* An idea just occurred to me whilst scanning through the various interviews on KH3. Nomura has stated that KH3 will involve a search for the 'Key to Return Hearts'. Nowhere does it actually say that this 'key' is a keyblade. So what if it's something else? Ansem the Wise said at the end of KH3D that Sora 'touches so many hearts' and maybe he could 'open the right door and save all those whose lives [Ansem had] managed to ruin'. Also before he was even born Sora was able to restore Ven's damaged heart by connecting it with his own and then he was able to call out to Ven's heart and save it from the darkness when it separated from Ven's body. Therefore what if the power to 'return hearts' actually lies within Sora? What do you think? 1 RikuFangirl2008 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoraKH 793 Posted July 31, 2013 (edited) Yeah) We always knew that Sora will save everyone = in other words he is the key And in blank points Aqua and Ansem the Wise talk and Ansem says to Aqua that Sora will save everyone Edited July 31, 2013 by SoraKH Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoshiko Hikari 301 Posted July 31, 2013 Yeah) We always knew that Sora will save everyone = in other words he is the key And in blank points Aqua and Ansem the Wise talk and Ansem says to Aqua that Sora will save everyone Yeah I know that, but it's still possible that whilst Sora is destined to save everyone the 'Key to Return Hearts' may still be something separate which Sora has to find and use in order to allow him to save everyone. After all if Ansem the Wise managed to work out that Sora was the 'key' without holding more than one or two conversations with him you would think Mickey or Yen Sid would have worked it out as well. Therefore it's still possible that my theory concerning Sora being the 'Key to Return Hearts' is wrong. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The key to save everyone like in coded said that Sora is the one who will save them all and the same thing in BBS when Ansem was talking to Aqua. I dont think that something else is the key and Sora has to use that something to save everyone. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingdomHearts3 2,591 Posted July 31, 2013 (edited) Very interesting theory. The only flaw I see about it is this: if everyone knows that Sora is the "key" to save everyone, they should not be wandering the worlds looking for it when it is standing in their midst. They should have him find Ven, Terra, and Aqua if that's the case. How would Sora save them anyway? He would not know what to do nor how to do it. If he pierced himself to awaken Ven, we would have major deja vu. If he tried to enter the RoD to find Aqua, how does he escape? Kairi would be training and have no time to write another letter. Terra would be a vain effort since it would like the first time when Aqua tried to free him in BbS. It seems as though there is no other way besides finding the Key-to-Return-Hearts, which is most likely a keyblade.

It seems as though there is no other way besides finding the Key-to-Return-Hearts, which is most likely a keyblade. But what if no one did know that Sora was the 'key' they were looking for? Sora and his friends would go wondering around the different worlds searching for the 'key' and then at some point something would happen to make him or someone else realise that he is the 'key'. As for how he would save everyone, I don't think it was Kairi's letter exactly that opened the door to light. Rather it was the feelings the letter stirred in Sora's heart. That's why Riku pointed to Sora's heart when Sora asked him what he thought the door to the light was. Therefore once Sora manages to find Aqua in the RoD he should be able to reopen the door by the power of his own heart. Then once Aqua is saved she will lead him to where Ven's body is hidden in Castle Oblivion. There Sora would use the powers he's discovered as the 'key' to return Ven's heart and then either during or after Xehanort has been defeated he can use those same powers to return Terra's heart. That's just my theory anyway, I could be wrong. 1 Mr. Boba reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EternalReckoning 1,135 Posted July 31, 2013 Its a popular theory, i think its safe to assume the key to return hearts is not a keyblade and not physical at this point. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KH4Real 749 Posted July 31, 2013 (edited) He might be the key but then again it might be to predictable. The key must be something like friendship or love. Edited July 31, 2013 by KH4Real Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Isaakix 0 Posted August 1, 2013 well the key to save ventus is master eraqus' keyblade, which he finds on the trailer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoshiko Hikari 301 Posted August 1, 2013 He might be the key but then again it might be to predictable. The key must be something like friendship or love. Hmm maybe well the key to save ventus is master eraqus' keyblade, which he finds on the trailer. However that scene in the trailer only served to remind fans of the story. It isn't actually going to be in the finished game. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
