I like teh cookies, thank you! And Flaming Lea, I've a feeling you're right! I have a feeling I'll be going to bed at three AM again this night. D: I'll share me cookies with you!

Just to put things in perspective, it's as big as, actually a bit bigger, than an Aura Lion.

That's cool, I want to try it. Did it freeze your game? I had a lot of buggy glitchiness in my play through, including having to reset twice; once because Riku was stuck in a wall in TT, but everyone else was moving and another when all the nightmares for a secret portal wouldn't spawn in Symphany Sora Side but it still had me in portal mode and I couldn't save or drop or anything. I was not happy.

I laughed so hard at that my family looked at me like I went nutso. ^ This. This so hard. That would be fantastic!

Hello, my name is Kirux. I just joined earlier this evening to comment on a specific topic, and decided that I am in desperate need of people to discuss/argue/gush over/make weird jokes about/have crazy ideas about KH with. I think it's safe to say that this is a place to do that. All in all, I love Kingdom Hearts more than any other game series I have ever played, and I'm a very hardcore Final Fantasy fan. It all started when my best friend made me watch her play it, she was in Hallow Bastion and at the behemoth fight, and I thought it was cool, but didn't care much until Mr. Squall McTightLeatherPants showed up sometime later (I was a sixteen year old girl at that time and she and I obsessed over FFVIII, it's why we were friends to begin with). About a month later I started dating this guy who let me borrow his PS2 and his KHI to play it. That relationship ended however; I kept his KHI, but returned the PS2 (I'm not that mean). That was the same year KHII came out, and I bought it with my birthday money to play it on my friend's PS2. My dad, being awesome, bought me a Playsation 2 that day because the price had just dropped and he didn't want me to have to pester my friend so much. I played it and loved it instantly. It was amazing and awesome and epic, something that I couldn't say about other KH games until Dream Drop Distance was released, and it's now my most favourite game ever of all time. Ionno, I guess over all I have a lot of fond memories of Kingdom Hearts, and I find it's story so deliciously amazing. It's so tragic and sad, and I can't for the life of me remember the last time I played a KH game and it ended and I was not crying my eyes out. I think the only two are KHII and Dreamdrop. I do know that 358/2 made me cry the hardest, and I get ticked when I read people's comments about how it was pointless to the series' story line. I digress, though. If you couldn't already tell, I'm somewhat long winded about things, and tend to make long posts, if that's frowned upon, please tell me I'll try to condense all my thoughts! Thanks for having me ~Kirux

My usual line up for commands with Riku were Meteor Crash, Dark Splicer, Dark Aura, and two Curagas. I actually did that fight with Meteor Crash, Dark Splicer, Dark Break (I found missed most of the time, with how much he zips about), Zero Graviza (Utterly useless, forgot to go through my commands after dream piece farming). and double Curaga. I found that even though Riku is powerful and quick, his defense is lacking. I know I could have fixed that better with different Spirits, but I had mine more geared for hastes and offense. In the end, at lvl 48ish, I had no problem with any of the end bosses for Riku or Sora, and I found that a little disappointing. I am going to play again on Proud difficulty, and see how big of a difference it is,

I found this thread while searching the google for answers to this exact question, and I find it both thought provoking and amusing. By the way, this may be lengthy due to the fact that I have no one else to talk about KH around me, so all my thoughts have been building up for awhile. If it's too long, I'm really sorry! Also, even though it's safe to say that this thread itself is one huge spoiler, this comment does hold spoilers, so please don't read if you haven't finished the game! There are a few things that I noticed, as did a lot of people here, that make it very hard to try and figure out who is and isn't under one of those hoods. Firstly; I find Terra's, Ven's, and Aqua's unknown status and inclusion into the seven guardians of light to be very bothersome. From the sounds of it, everyone pretty much assume's Terra is removed from this list. Yet, Mickey is pretty adamant about saving him, and if Aqua and Ven ever get back they will be, too. If we take how much planning MX does, as proven in DreamDrop, don't you think he would have made a back up plan for this as well? But, there's another thing even beyond that that has me concerned about Terra. The fact that, without any evidence to prove otherwise, I am under the assumption that Terra-Xehanort is the base person from which AnsemSoD and Xemnas were created. (This also begs into question about whether or not Terra and Eraquis had their own nobodies and heartless, or if the three are still intermingled between AnsemSoD and Xemnas) I personally, due to how much can be questioned about Terra, wouldn't truly put him into either list as himself as of yet. I have no clue how Aqua is going to be rescued from the darkness, but she will be needed before Ven can be rescued to transform CO back into the Land of Departure. I was honestly disappointed that Dream Drop didn't further delve into the rescuing of either Aqua or Ventus, until I realised the implications of Riku having dream eater powers. If we can assume that he retains those powers, and can use them on people other than Sora, I think that using a combination of dream diving and being able to dive into Sora's heart, Riku is going to retrieve Ven's heart from Sora's. Then again, Ansem the Wise did state that it seems Sora has the power to bring people back who has a connection to him in his heart, so maybe Sora will become aware of Ventus being inside him. What will be interesting, however; is the handling of Vanitas. His appearance with YMX in DreamDrop was brief and intersting. I have always wonder how that is going to play out; If Sora has Ven's heart inside him, that means he has Vanitas as well. Could Vanitas have escaped when Sora unlocked his own heart in KHI? If so we didn't we see him until just now? Roxas takes the appearance of Ven as Sora's nobody, and I like to think Roxas himself actually held Ven's heart within him, which is why he felt so many things during his story. Either way, Vanitas is assured to come back with Ven, whether it's as a different person or within Ven I cannot say. I do not think that Ven himself will side with MX unless Vantias has control over him, and I look forward to knowing what happens because Ven is one of my favourite characters. (I also had a thought that maybe Vanitas could be an explanation as to what caused Anti Sora in KHII? Don't ask me about the how, just an odd thought that floated into my mind.) I also do not think that any of the other original Organization members are part of the True Seekers club, based mostly on the assumption that yellow eyes equals a carrier of MX's heart. I would love to see more Luxord action, he was definitely my favourite member, however; if I ever have to hear Demyx shout DANCE WATER DANCE! one more time in my life I might go all She-Hulk and have to bust some heads. Braig was a given, he has always been a carrier of MX, chronologically speaking. I'm not sure when Isa became a vessel, but I am going to place my bets on somewhere during 358/2 Days due to the cutscene with Axel saying he's really changed recently. I do really want to know why they were both heading to Ansem the Wise's castle in BBS, though. I also strongly believe that both the Braig and Isa in Dream Drop were the humans after recompleting, this is based solely on the reactions of Braig during Sora's speech in TWTNW and Lea calling Isa, well Isa, and not Saix. I don't see Lea as being a traitor, all though he did seem a bit standoffish in the cutscenes with Sora and Riku, but that's to be expected from someone who just blooped back into existence and has been thrown into a room filled by a group of really close friends whom he previously fought against. I would also think that being near Sora would cause some major heartache over not being able to see his best friend ever again. (Unless Sora uses his heart powers to bring Roxas back, which I hope so...so hard. I love me some Roxas and really want to see a happy ending for him.) I, too, would love to see some FF characters in those hooded robes, but I find that they all have such strong personalities of their own that they probably wouldn't make very good vessels. Why would someone like Sephiroth or, for some reason the only person that comes to mind is Kefka (and all though that is a hillarious picture in my head, Kefka waltzing around in an Organization robe being all psychotic and Kefka-y), who yes are inherently dark, side with someone like MX when they can, and on Kefka's part have, been able to destroy the world or plunge it into darkness themselves. Also, I wouldn't doubt if the puppet/replicant projects were used to make MX clones. Xion as pretty successful if it hadn't been for that meddlesome Riku and that Namine, too. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if one of those hoods dropped and it was portraited AS Xion. that'd be cool, though unlikely seeing as she's been portaited as inside of Sora's heart along with Roxas and Ven. The guardians of light are a lot easier to pin down; Sora, Master Riku (That's so awesome, good for him!), Mickey, Master Aqua, Ventus, Lea, and (sigh) Kairi. I'm not even going to go into how much Kairi annoys me, and about how Dream Drop was the most perfect game until that Secret Ending (which did nothing for me). But I will say that; If Yen Sid is worried about MX going after the princesses of heart, why would he let her go out into the fray? Even if she can wield a keyblade, you'd think she'd be too important. However; maybe this will make her more likable and less of an annoying person that the story seems to forget more times than not. (How many times since KHI has she been truly relevant to the plot and not just kind of thrown in there just to let us know that SE didn't forget about her, and neither can we.) I want to like her, I really do, but she just so useless as of right now besides being able to manifest a keyblade. Hopefully she'll pull an Elizabeth Swan and become super awesome in the third part. If not and we either have to see a lot of her, or use her, in KHIII it will be painful and annoying for me. If there's some Lea (hopefully with a new outfit, that black coat is so last season) control action; that'd be super sweet and enough to counter balance it for me. Well, that's about all I gotta say about that. Sorry it was so long and I hope that there was at least some sort of interesting new outlook on the situation somewhere in there for you. ~Kirux
