I’m starting to think that 358/2 Days could have worked without Xion based on the observations of this user TheJackSage on YouTube among others. See if you can answer the three questions in this image to prove them wrong.

Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days Does Roxas love Xion even if he doenst have a heart? Cause his is crying and all that, and she just disappeared he shed a tear. But before she go into Roxas she said I have to give Sora his memories back. she didnt want to go but it was best for everyone(so i thought). But it tears Roxas apart and he fights Riku but before Riku is defeat Xion says stop him Riku in his head. so is that love for Roxas and Xion.[attachment=266][attachment=266][attachment=266]

Xion heard that there was something good in the freezer... And she was right! It's sea salt ice cream! Those pops seem a little too big for her though... Luckily I also made smaller ones! Better eat up before it melts any more! Sorry about the phone camera lol. But the ice cream tasted really good! It feels accomplishing to finally have an idea of what sea salt ice cream tastes like! :biggrin: Hopefully Roxas & Axel will be able to join her next time! I followed this recipe if anyone is curious to make them too! https://youtu.be/u7-Zxasvksk?list=LLLf05PgEpz6QQ255_9I9Vew

After I had just watched the 358/2 Days cinematic on Kingdom Hearts I.5+II.5 for the PlayStation 4 after not playing the game since 2013, I wanted to watch it just to unlock the gorgeous theme for my PlayStation 4. Upon further investigation, I have come to the conclusion that 358/2 Days is deeper than we all thought. In the beginning, Xion first appears in Day 7. Xion is hooded up, starting the beginning of her depression. The Organization XIII represents her friendships. She has cut ties with most of her friends, except for the ones she cares about (Roxas and Axel). Xion doesn't even talk with them that much, up until Day 24 at least. Here, she begins to talk, as if she were to confess about her depression to her best friend, Roxas. Xion chokes up a little bit, as she doesn't want to frighten him. If you notice during scenes, Xion gets herself into dangerous situations, as if she were to kill herself, but doesn't want anyone to know about her depression. During Day 74, Xion appears with and without a hood in several shots. When her hood is up, it is her depression taking over her, but when the hood is down, it is her overcoming her depression. When Xion can't use her Keyblade, it is representing her being too depressed to do anything significant. When the Organization wants to get rid of her (calling her puppet, "Poppet", etc.), that is a representation of her cutting ties with her friends. Between Days 174-193, Xion is asleep, representing her deep depression. When Roxas is told in the end that Xion has to be killed in order for Roxas to be him again, it is symbolic of her having to cut ties with Roxas, almost as if it were suicide. She doesn't mind being killed off, as she sees herself as insignificant. During Day 357, Xion commits suicide. sorry if this theory is weak, but I felt this was interesting during my viewing of 358/2 Days. (image credit to semokan of DeviantArt.)

In the words of DJ Khaled: "Another one". Continuing with my marathon, today I'll be sharing my opinions about Days, the 1st DS game in the series. I encourage anyone that visits this to share their experiences with this game. This comes from my 1st playthrough in Proud mode. Story: I'll be honest: I spoiled the ending on myself, so I didn't have as much of a reaction to some of the events as others had. However, I liked the plot for being different from the other games and not sharing their formula of "go through the worlds in an adventure, defeat the heartless and the villain and find your missing friends". This was more about the life of a member of Organization XIII, conducting missions trying to get his heart back and overall finding his place on the world. I especially liked seeing the friendship of Roxas, Axel and Xion develop throughout the game, which made their fallout even more sad. It was interesting seeing Riku after ReCOM and how he went about doing things, but it only made me wish there was another mode or game where you play through Days from the perspective of Riku, Mickey, Naminè and DiZ. The game made me care about Roxas and gave a new opinion on Organization XIII, however the plot doesn't add much to the overall story of the series. The pacing isn't that good, the story not really picking up until Day 150 or later and the 1st half being a lot of filler. While I liked the story, it's purpose was to show Roxas' existence when he was with the Organization and fill the gaps from KH2 that COM didn't explain. That's it. Gameplay: The gameplay is decent. While not as great as KH1, it is close enough. After playing ReCOM, this game was refreshing, since I was able to just do anything I wanted without worrying about card breaks or numbers. It felt good to use attacks and spells in succesion and just do stuff similar to KH1. Of course, it is more limited, since the game is split into missions with restricted areas and magic having a limited number of uses as opposed to an MP bar, but it's not so bad later on. I found the panel system to be the AP of KH1, now used on everything instead of just abilities. I didn't customize much and simply made my deck as I went along, but after getting decent panels and releasing slots, it felt good to just breeze through everything with a powered up Roxas. The level up system could've been natural instead of using panels, but aside from that I was okay with the panel system. I didn't like how in most missions, some areas were restricted and unable to be reached, which killed the exploration aspect of the game. I wouldn't mind the mission aspect of the game if it weren't for that problem. Aside from that and the sometimes slow combat, I liked the gameplay of Days a lot. Graphics: while Days doesn't look as good as the other games, it's graphics are great for the DS. The character models look good, even if pixelated and more polygon-y and all the worlds were accurate recreations of the ones from KH1 and 2. The text scenes were bland, due to no voices, but the cutscenes that played at certain points looked as good as KH1. Sound: Most of the soundtrack is recycled from other games, but the few new tracks are as great as usual. I especially loved the new Neverland theme and Mystic Moon, while other tracks I found to be from good to meh. Overall, while it isn't as good as the other games, Days was a good experience from start to finish, and I think is as good/better as COM in certain departments while worse in others. I enjoyed it a lot. I'll also give a pseudo-review on the 1.5 cutscenes, since I watched them as I played the game. The remade scenes are beautiful and make the development of Roxas, Axel and Xion's feel more real while giving the plot more life. The voice acting is, again, great and just made them better. However, I didn't like how they remade some scenes and not all of them, probably to not make it as filler as the game, and the fact that there were no battle scenes killed it for me. The biggest crime, for me, is that it shows evidence of the planned-but-scrapped HD remake of Days, with some of the models used in the still images, which I would've loved to see. It was an okay collection of cutscenes. Now,I shall go onward with my marathon, to the true sequel...
