Take a shot everytime re:com translates “aitsu” as “her” when it’s referring very clearly to riku by the end of the story what with soras last line to repliku being “riku..! Aitsu…”

Why does it autocorrect lowkey to low-key
I feel old
November 19, 2025 at 12:28 PM
And he describes it either way so you low-key dont even have to look
Genuinely so easy to put on and listen to while u do mindless shit I love this fucking essay
November 19, 2025 at 12:27 PM
This is so fair but also: this video essay is low-key the perfect “in the background just listening” video essay
Like almost every piece of important text is read aloud and whenever it wants you to look at the screen it’s because tennelle is directly talking about a visual

Once again I am robbing from this video if you haven’t watched it literally just look up riku is gay it’s 6 hours wirh like an hour of follow up videos but trust it’s so good

Or in the scene where kairi is killed, in English he says “Kairi! Why her?! Why…?”

Whereas in Japanese he just says “Kairi! Why?! Why…?”

The English kind of implies that out of everyone here today sora is most upset it was kairi to be hurt which is not really. Like him he cares 4 everyone

Or in the scene where kairi is with sora in the tunnel of light, sora says “you make me feel strong Kairi” when he actually is saying “you really are strong kairi” or “I knew you were strong all along, kairi” (which low-key this TL does kairi so dirty we made a compliment for her about sora Bruhhh)

And is actually later officially retranslated as “A little charm in the hopes that we’ll never be apart again” for re:mind’s social media loading screens

Like In the paopu scene on the tree, kairi says “I want to be a part of your life no matter what. That’s all.”
Which is more accurately translated as “just think of it (sharing the paopu) as a lucky charm so we won’t be separated. That’s all.”

Yeah a lot of lines between sora and kairi are sort of mistranslated in KH3💀
Kh3 was the game that had the least time for the script to be re checked so it suffers a lot from “making sora and kairi more straight” disease (2nd place award probably goes to RE:COM bc of one singular decision lol)

bisexual sora is awesome tho its # true
November 19, 2025 at 8:23 AM
sorry i forgot to mention that X_X
but like smth like that defo couldnt be further from the truth with the context above like at the very least theirs no way sora is fully aware he has feelings for kairi if we want to read it is him liking her but the way its framed i rlly think he doesnt
November 19, 2025 at 8:22 AM
like he knows what it is he can identify when people love eachother, but he doesnt really understand what that means which i think is telling

i mention this bc the video i was watching mentioned sora and kairi are kind of on the same page about liking eachother but just havent made any moves
November 19, 2025 at 8:22 AM
and this kind of becomes even more clear when you read sora's response to love in the character files where he basically says he doesnt really get it (and that one line in kh3 "i may still have a lot to learn about love!")
