read the cut. and the spoilers there are epic. namely on Axel and Xion. you've been warned

credits to natsu_kashii on the info.

On Xion, like duh since everyone first thought she's just some Mary Sue, I feel damn sad for her.

According to gamefaqs, Xion is a puppet crafted out of Sora's leaked memories, and gradually she will take on parts of Sora's face until, in the end, she appears exactly as Sora. She only appears as Kairi because she is a fragment of Sora's memory. She looks like Kairi because Sora has a strong memory of her. just as Roxas joined together with Sora, Xion joins with Roxas prior to his fight with Riku, which explains why he can dual wield with the keyblades. once Xion discovers that she is nothing but a puppet, she literally goes insane and roxas ends up putting her out of her misery by absorbing her. Xion needed to absorb Roxas to be complete, but Roxas, to her misfortune, doesn't let that happen.

Xemnas' plan was to have Xion become Sora, and then absorb Roxas. that way, the real Sora would be stuck in his pod forever, and the Organization would still have their very own keyblade wielder.

I HATE YOU XEMNAS. and this explains Xion's very blue eyes.

And obviously Xion dies is absorbed by Roxas. She fades by becoming ice crystals and eventually turning into an ice statue that shatters in roxas's arms. *cries*

Xion's already insane at this point of time, even before when she discovers the truth. She stares at the clock tower when fading and her last words to Roxas are : "It was nice meeting you...no. It was nice...meeting you and Axel. We three...we're...best friends."

Roxas: "No, you can't go. The three of us still have to go eat ice cream together!"

She still dies, and leaves a pink and yellow seashell for Roxas, who is crying for her.

Even if I'm not that much a Xion fan, how can one not feel sad for her?! Although she wanted to absorb Roxas so that Sora ceases to stop existing. in short. Sora + Roxas + Xion = same person

It's just plain ironic that Roxas has to face the same thing that his late best friend did but much later, and combing into the person that Xion was supposed to become. Sora is one lucky guy. D<

On Axel...Saix apparently calls him Lea. Obviously that's his real name and sounds like a princess from Star Wars. I was expecting a manlier name like Lae, but oh well.
 

Talking about Kingdom Hearts, Pandora Hearts has quite a number of similarities to KH besides the 'Hearts' in the title. I wonder if Mochizuki-sensei plays it?

In chapter 37 of Pandora Hearts, the title of the pocket watch melody was revealed and written in English on the grave as 'Lacie'.

And Lacie so happens to be an anagram of Alice. weird, no? I'm thinking that Lacie's most likely the Will of the Abyss's real name and she used to be human before being sacrificed to the Abyss, although some think it's Alice + Will of Abyss's mother or Alice + Will of Abyss combined.

If Alice or Lacie had a Nobody, it'll be something like Xaciel. LOL.

Because I'm so lame, here's my list of KH and PH similarities
1. Plot-wise :
-PH: Oz, after being dragged into the Abyss, meets Alice and goes on a journey to recover her lost memories. 
 KH:Sora is also kind of searching for Kairi's heart or sth like that after Destiny Islands is attacked.
-PH:Gil betrays Oz by being adopted into the Nightray family (+ stabbing him) and hides himself under the name of 'Raven' when Oz comes back from the Abyss but eventually they reconcile. Oz forgives Gil and still considers him as a friend.
 KH: Riku goes to the side of the Heartless at first, later on he hides himself in the Organization cloak due to tapping on Xehanort's heartless in him. In KH II, Sora reconciles with him and forgives him.
-PH: Mysterious and evil organization makes Oz's life difficult aka Baskervilles
 KH: Organization XIII. nuff said.
2. Anagrams. Look at above.
3. Character wise :
-PH: Oz the teenaged main character, is damn optimistic and determined to save Alice. He has a butler / best friend called Gilbert who is quite trapped in between the good and bad side.
 KH: Sora is the teenaged main character, is damn optimistic and determined to save Kairi. He has a best friend called Riku who is also tranpped in between the good and the bad side.
-PH: Gilbert is the best friend of the Oz. He stabbed Oz while possessed, and in the 10 years Oz was gone, was adopted in the Nightray family which is kind of the Vessalius family's enemy (?) He hides himself in the alias 'Raven' and refuses to reveal himself to Oz when he comes back from the Abyss.
 KH: Riku is the best friend of Sora. He went to Maleficent's side and totally betrays Sora. Later on he hides behind the Organization cloak because he feels that he cannot face Sora in KH II

can't think of any more, and my hands are tired from typing. Till the next entry...
