ESPECIALLY when the whole point of those characters is that they are fighting to be their own people. That’s like the whole point of 358/2 btw. (Well not the whole point but it’s a big plot point) Roxas and Xion fought so hard to be their own people that it was literally making it impossible for Namine to fix Sora’s memories. Their whole arc, their whole thing, is that they want to be their own people. But everyone is telling them that they shouldn’t exist. And Xion accepts this, and Roxas does as well eventually, and it’s sad and tragic yeah. But why should these two people die at the expense of Sora living? Because they are their own people. They had their own hearts. Their own personalities. Roxas is Sora’s nobody, but he didn’t get his memories like the others, so he formed his own identity, created new memories, and gained a heart. Same with Xion.

And let me tell you this, I would bet so much money that if Sora knew that to bring him back meant that Roxas and Xion would disappear and basically die, he would’ve said no. He wouldn’t have agreed to it. We saw what he did in KH 3, he basically sacrificed himself to save his friends, and then extra sealed his fate to bring Kairi back. He wouldn’t ask someone else to make a sacrifice. But he would make the sacrifice himself.

If anything, I could make the argument that Sora should’ve stayed gone and we get a new protagonist for the games. Sora had a tragic ending, but a good one. He sacrificed himself to save everyone else. He misused the power of waking, a nature taboo, to bring everyone back and rewrite time to save everyone. And did it AGAIN to save Kairi. And I wouldn’t have been mad either if that was the ending we got. So, just throwing that out there.

I'm 7 years late but yea Kairi should've been allowed to shoot Xemnas point blank as a treat instead of getting kidnapped for the nth time
