ForsakenAngel 14 Posted January 9, 2015 I've been thinking about this for a while now and it's really annoying me cause I can't find the answer lol I read somewhere that they don't but there are a few things that don't add up for me. Namine looks younger in Chain of memories then in KH2 Lea and Isa joined the organisation soon after BBS but they look much older in other KH games Ienzo and Even are seen after their hearts are taken by 'Ansem' and Ienzo is still a child but he's a teen in the other games. What do you guys think?? 3 Charleskt, TimothyPese and Blooming Marluxia reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HeyMouseSayCheese 1,133 Posted January 9, 2015 No, no one ages in Kingdom Hearts except Sora, Riku, Kairi and Hercules. Everyone else is always exactly as old as they always have been and always will be. 3 Official Bowtie Artist, Col.Random and Ruby Rose reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Forever 3,550 Posted January 9, 2015 Yep. Xigbar is the best example of this. Went in looking about 30 something- came out looking about 50. Then again, some would argue that it's because he's part Xehanort, so.....maybe not. 3 Col.Random, Blooming Marluxia and ForsakenAngel reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ForsakenAngel 14 Posted January 9, 2015 ohhh so that would make them all like 10/11 years older in CoM, Days, KH2 and DDD. Saix looks like he's quite a bit older then Axel though, I wonder if that's cause he's part Xehanort too?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Saix looks like he's quite a bit older then Axel though, I wonder if that's cause he's part Xehanort too?? I think the fact that Saïx looks older than Axel has more to do with his personality and look on life; Axel acts more immaturely, therefore he seems younger.

Hmm, maybe that's true. He is very serious looking. I wonder if we'll get to see some back stories for him and other 13 darknesses we haven't seen. Would be interesting to see why he decided to be evil if that's what he is lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarkXIIII 106 Posted January 9, 2015 Namine ages because herreal body (and heart) does exist and ages as well. (Kairi) Roxas does only a tiny bit because he has Ven's heart and Ven is sleeping and hence not aging. Sora does so it'S a grey zone there. 1 Caity reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think Axel acts immaturely. Not being super serious about everything doesn't necessarily make someone immature Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Psychic_Ketchup 367 Posted January 9, 2015 I don't think Axel acts immaturely. Not being super serious about everything doesn't necessarily make someone immature True, I guess immature is the wrong word. But you have to agree that Saïx's outlook on life makes him look weary and old. At least older than Axel, whose positive, cheerful outlook on life makes him young, or at least younger than Saïx.

HarLea Quinn 26,501 Posted January 9, 2015 (edited) Officially according to Nomura they don't age bc the body needs a heart to age. However, I agree there seems to be discrepancies to this that don't add up. Some of them could be that they started to grow hearts back or did grow hearts back so they could grow. As for Zexion, Axel, and Saix, they had another year to grow since we saw them in BBS and when they became nobodies but that doesn't explain such a ginormous growth spurt Anyways considering what Nomura officially stated this might be considered a plothole. ( unless somehow explained in KH3 or confirmed to be the reason I previously mentioned ) Edited January 9, 2015 by Flaming Lea 5 Zola, ForsakenAngel, Blooming Marluxia and 2 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Buttercup Camera 229 Posted January 9, 2015 No. They don't. Naminé is a different type of Nobody as you can see. Isa, Ienzo and Lea turned into adults right when they transformed into Nobodies. They don't age. That's why I mistaken Ventus for Roxas on believeing that BBS was happening 10 years later... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It would make sense. honestly the growing hearts thing would explain a lot, since that could explain why Nobodies don't seem to have grown as quickly as they probably should have This is true. They still look quite young for being 10/11 yrs older then BbS. To be honest I kinda hope they didn't age all too much cause that would make Axel like 24ish and Roxas and Xion would only be 14/15. For how much he cares for them it makes him seem a bit odd, especially for Axel x Roxas fans like myself. I'm just not sure if that age gap is all right haha Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm just not sure if that age gap is all right haha Well if you want to start getting technical, Roxas is less than one year old, and similarly you could count Axel and Laa as seperate entities (though this makes less sense than Roxas, since there's no functional difference between Axel and Lea) that would leave Axel at about ten years old, and Lea at about 16 But really, ages don't matter in anime at all Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
