That's a lot of speculation going on there presented as facts.

Don't rule out the possibility, How WAS He supposed to Talk with Naminé if He's running laps with Terra and Riku?

How do we know Roxas knows how to articulate love on as deep and understanding a level as Sora and Kairi for example? Sora and Kairi spent years growing up together, and have put so much on the line for each other. Sora sacrificed his physical existence to save Kairi despite knowing there was a price to pay, and in the time he had left chose to spend it with her specifically rather than a final good bye to everyone else. That's love. By his own experiences Roxas is less than a month since "who else will I have ice cream with", I doubt he's ready to know romantic love when he feels it.

 

Physically Roxas, Namine and Xion are teenagers, but emotionally they're still toddlers, albeit ones who have gone through more emotional strife than anything should have gone through at any age. You say you don't like kids dating, but ship Roxas and Namine? Roxas smashed the computer not because of Namine (who he'd had only a couple of interactions with at that point), but because he was frustrated at being manipulated, his past and very nature concealed from him. What he believed to be his whole world, being in Twilight Town with Hayner, Pence and Olette, was completely undermined by someone who couldn't even dignify his existence as a person. Only minutes later he's duel wielding against the friend he only just remembered walking out on, and then being told by DiZ he's just a pawn, taking swings at Diz.

If you're going by KH3 evidence, there's more to suggest a Riku/Namine connection. He's the one to escort her to the Destiny Islands in her gummi ship chariot (taking her hand like he's her prince), and Repliku is very protective of Namine in Chain of Memories. Who's the one in the Keyblade Graveyard to sacrifice a chance at a replica body so Namine can have one? That's actual on screen evidence, not reading between the lines.

I understand What you are saying, But You should acknowledge Naminé's Reaction when Sora mentioned Roxas in the Final World. She was giggling as if she was also Blushing when She heard Roxas, And When Sora remarked about everyone other than Roxas Naminé had no response. So It's safe to say that Naminé & Roxas have become Canon, That's still evidence.

I say Xion. Roxas didn't really know Namine; the only time he met her was the beginning of KH2, right? I now that it's kind of implied because Namine is Kairi and Roxas is Sora, but in the end I like Xion with him better.

 

And with all the people talking about the technicalities, please stop. You are ruining my fan pairings! lol

Nah, Roxas sees Xion as more of a Sisterly Figure He looks up to and wants to take care of. Roxas knew Naminé for a bit, But Those Two are definitely Canon Since He held memories of Her in Dream Drop Distance as seen when he is reconnecting with Sora. KH3 His Affection for her Still Remains, Like You can't really say he didn't really know Naminé Roxas probably somehow knows her through Sora because Chain of Memories. Like I said, Kingdom Hearts 3 When Sora told Naminé that He misses her dearly like as a Lover and Understand How much she is sad through the separation from Roxas. At the Ending, Destiny Islands Roxas tells Terra about his Crush on Naminé and Why he has trouble Confessing his Feelings For her.

Roxas can still get to know Naminé better though, It's not impossible. Just ya know, Through their Romantic Relationship.

Namine and Roxas should be together, Roxas being Sor's Nobody and Namine being Kairi's. Plus they are so cute together

Yeah, Most people make the excuse "They hardly know each other" But Roxas can still learn how to know her Of Course, Also He still sees Xion as either a Sisterly Figure or a Friend If we are considering The Canon Relationship Nomura intended for them. I don't know Why Xion and Roxas are shipped Because They have never shown romantic interest, He developed a Crush on Naminé with the Love at first Sight Thing in KH2. Ever Since The Separation, Roxas has been thinking about her in Dream Drop Distance because of the Two Memory Bubbles with Naminé while reconnecting with Sora. KH3, Where Sora tells Naminé Roxas really misses her and in the Ending When He informs Terra of his Crush on and Why he is too shy to confess his Feelings to her Roxas was also 5 or 6 inches behind Naminé on Destiny Islands Which means They reunited again.

Kind of Like Namine is Sora’s Castle Oblivion Girlfriend 

and Kairi is his Main Series Girlfriend 

No, Sora literally just stated that He wanted to become friends with Naminé for real before sleeping in the Memory Pod or whatever it is called. Considering that Naminé is potentially Roxas's Canon Girlfriend in KH2 and KH3, I don't think Sora would be the type of guy that would get in the way of their Relationship when they just wanna be together. So I believe It's Naminé is his Future Girlfriend and Xion is his Sisterly Figure he looks up to, Roxas also felt affection for the First Time after meeting Naminé. In Dream Drop Distance within the 2.8 Remastered versions particularly, Naminé is among Two Memory Bubbles when transferring and reconnecting with Sora. Ever Since Roxas was separated from Naminé in Dream Drop Distance and the majority of KH2 & KH3, He's been constantly thinking about her Because Roxas can't get her off his mind because He is deeply in love with her I mean Their First Meeting caused a Love at First Sight Effect Which is more realistic than Kairi forcing a Relationship with Sora even though their age gap is different and The fact they are dating is quite awkward. I guess Nomura made RokuNami as like this More Realistic Couple so That when The Sora and Kairi Couple is finished, We can start fresh and check out Roxas & Naminé's More Realistic Loving Relationship. Because Let's be honest People, Sora and Kairi would have been better as Sibling Figures to one another.

To be honest, identity matters aside collectively the three have spent fewer than five years existing by the end of Kingdom Hearts 3. Despite everything they've been through they're still emotionally children (by his own personal experience of time Roxas still associates friendship with ice cream specifically) and need time to find their own identities separate from Sora and Kairi before any possible matching up is done.

I don't think You can just claim that They are mentally children, Since When has Nomura ever confirmed this? I've looked everywhere on Youtube There wasn't any proof of him Declaring to the Audience The Nobodies are Mentally Childish, I'm pretty sure He confirmed that Naminé Xion and Roxas are all Mature Nobodies like If you read the wiki of Naminé It says accurately that she is more mature in KH2 and KH3. 

Roxas Axel and Xion already reunited in KH3, Like It's just his Favourite Dessert so Of Course He put some meaning in it. But Sea Salt Popsicles don't really symbolize Friendship, The Friendship is associated from their Memories and Conscience not The Popsicle. The Sea Salt Popsicles are a representation of Roxas's Life of Utter Grief and Hope for his Better Future, It doesn't have any other meaning than that. 

If you don't know, Nomura never intended to make Sora and Kairi a Couple It was an accident on his decision Because Someone else suggested this. However, He did intend to make Naminé and Roxas Canon Because He himself already stated that He prefers RokuNami more than SoKai. Probably Because Sora and Kairi were more of a forced relationship, RokuNami was more realistic with the Love at First Sight effect and the fact that their First Meeting was a coincidence. There is a lot of signs that Roxas loves Naminé in Dream Drop Distance Majority of KH2 and KH3, He attacked Sora Because He blamed him for Not letting him spend as much time as he wanted to with her. Roxas destroyed the Simulation Computers Because of How He wasn't able to stop Ansem-Riku & DIZ From Kidnapping Naminé, He was relieved to have seen her again and Smiled at her at the End of KH2 through their Somebodies. In Dream Drop Distance Roxas kept Two Memories of Naminé in his mind which shows his Deep Romantic Feelings he had harboured For her, In KH3 Sora reveals that Roxas has missed Naminé more than an Actual Friend of hers would Which implies his Love for her Naminé also giggled and blushed when She heard Sora mention Roxas. They are Together at KH3 While Roxas tells Terra about his Relationship with her and Crush on Naminé, He was only 5 inches away from her on Destiny Islands at the Ending.

Roxas has been seen constantly Blushing in KH2 Prologue When talking with Naminé, Who blushes as much as He does While Talking with Roxas. When Ansem-Riku and DIZ Kidnap Naminé to prevent her from talking to Roxas, Naminé was worried that She would never see Roxas again which is why she was gesturing her hands on her chest despite not having a Heart showing Concern. She was staring at Only Roxas's Figure of her Drawing when sitting on the bench referring to him as "Someone She wants to see" Naminé also was happy to Reunite with Roxas at the end of KH2 hence Why She smiled at him so affectionately, In KH3 Naminé was Actually happy at the Ending Because she was 5 inches away from Roxas (therefore Why Nomura recently confirmed this Couple as Canon) Naminé and Roxas were standing beside each other when Sora disappeared seemingly banished to another World

What I'm trying to explain is, Naminé and Roxas proved How much They enjoy being Together throughout KH2 DDD & KH3. The Blushing Their Memories of One Another & Their Respective Desire to See Each Other Even How Both of them are Worried for One Another in KH3, At the end of The Day Nomura made Roxas x Naminé Canon in KH3 which makes their Relationship even more possible and probable Because It pains me to say Sora & Kairi are almost near the Relationship's Conclusion and The Doors will open for the New Romantic Realistic Relationship of RokuNami. The Sora and Kairi Relationship curtains will indeed close never to be focused on again, I'm Sorry but It seems that Naminé and Roxas Couple seems to be happening After the KH3 Ending. Like I don't understand Why Most people Deny this Couple, Because Guess What? Now that It's Canon, Nobody can really do anything about Nomura's Decision Because he intended to make this Naminé and Roxas a very important Couple.

[Kiari/Niamen/ No.XV 3]

Definitely Namine because she's learned to bond with Roxas and no offense to everyone who's said Xion and Roxas but I personally think Riku and Xion would be much better together than Xion and Roxas even if they're best friends

Many of you are constantly arguing over RoxasXnamine or RoxasXxion but really..... it comes down to choice.TECHNICALLY Roxas' sister's are namine and Xion because Roxas and Namine came from Sora and Xion came from Roxas (correct me if im wrong but its somewhat like that)

Namine is Kairi's nobody so technically Namine isn't related to Roxas because they came from 2 different people and saying that Namine and Roxas are like siblings is like someone saying that Kairi and Sora are like siblings but they're not. and here are a few differences between the two although they're both connected to Sora, Naminé is Kairi's Nobody, but came into being via Sora's body and soul. Likewise, Roxas is Sora's Nobody but was left behind because Sora's Heartless regained human form using Kairi's heart instead of his own. As Ansem explained, both Roxas and Naminé came into being via Sora's body. but this doesn't technically mean Roxas and Namine are related Now Xion and Roxas would technically be related even though XIon is a puppet.
