I'll still play kh4 and divorce the two from their VAs and love the characters, but its sad I even have to. Its sad two of my biggest comfort characters have been brought to life by people who would choose what they did.

And thank him for bringing that to life. For letting me experience that with him. I just....that's gone now. Just like Axel/Lea unless he gets recast. 2 of my top 3 characters. Literally 2 of my top 3. This sucks.

I hoped to meet him someday. I hoped to tell him how much his growth was important to me. How darkness and trauma can truly make you feel like you lose yourself and then finding that strencgth to embrace it but not let it be all that you are is just so important to me.

David also apparently made a statement echoing this but I cant find it. If someone can lemme know. But suffice it to say I dont think I can comfortably support him anymore. And it sucks. Riku has genuinely gotten me through some of the hardest times in my life.

-and dont tell me he knows nothing at all about kh. Ive caught him making references to "that theory". Im sorry this is so long I just....wanted to get it across that you truly are not alone. I really hope Nomura puts his foot down a little in kh4 and things just...chill out.

What I mind is how THAT SECT treats him and his arc as being only and all about Sora 24/7, when his character file story literally basically spells out he's trying to grow *past that* and he's made so much progress.
What I mind is that THAT SECT has literally *corrupted* his va to a degree-

Kh is literally how I make friends. Its been a comfort through the worst times in my life. Days kept me from ideation in middleschool (no seriously). I started creative writimg because of Xion. I dont mind that Riku speaks to ppl & helps them on their journeys. I love it. He's helped me so much.

And dear god did it erase what little Kairi has been given so far. I miss KH1 Kairi every day. I saw her a bit in 0.2 BBS and then she vanished again. I miss my daughter tails. I miss her a lot.

It undermined Riku's growth through acceptance of his trauma. It undermined Sora's flaws and his downfalls which we still havent properly addressed btw (FOR THE LOVE OF MICHEAL MOUSE BOY STOP SELF SACRIFICING YOU MATTER YOU MATTER AAAAA)

When I saw said theory you mention I cant lie I laughed at it. Because that's just...not how writing works. But then when I saw it swept the fandom I was so disappointed and upset and ashamed. Not b/c it was SR, but because it undermines literally all thematic elements in the series to make SR work.

but the versions we meet and follow past kh1 just never felt romantic to me. Especially thabks to chain of memories and the context of that. And Ive genuinely loved Rikunami for years before kh3 because of re-watching chain of memories and the new scenes in kh2 and the novels.

Also Akusai/Leaisa is literally how me and my close to 10 year best friend bonded and grew close. I own the zine. Look at my pfp. When a mlm ship hits right it hits RIGHT!
But SR never did. It just didnt. I was open to it and I do genuinely love them in the context of Re:coded-

Good lord Im so glad someone said it. Ive been called a homophobe before for loving Rikunami and genuinely seeing and loving the writing on the wall for them. Fun fact: my favorite Sora ship is Sora and Roxas. Sokai is cute and canon it just doesnt grab me by the throat like Soroku.

Its what all of them should have been. An entirely different approach to the same story with little wink wink wonk moments tossed in for longtime Disney fans

Its just a dofferent VERSION of Cinderella and every now and then you hear little bits of the original's sountrack or a little visual easter egg or a name or something

Live action remakes lol
In other words all of the rest of them suck but Cinderella was genuinely good and deserves to be seen because its more of a loveletter with little references to the 1950s abimated film than an actual remake

Date Everything may not ever let you touch grass, but...in some ways it was the grass touching I needed.

So if you will permit me, I think until we get some serious news and hell even after at least in part...this is just who I am. I'm still Tay~ I still would lay down my life for Namine and Aerith still gets fairy wings in my head, but...I'm a Tay with a way better perspective on things I think.
