Where exactly was that said? Is there a new sub video out?
Doesn't really make sense since Xehanort got to pick who his 13 darknesess were.
And going by the scene direction it definitely makes Kairi seem like the last "light"
Mickey: We need one more protector...
*cue slow pan up to Kairi's face.
It was said in the only subbed video I know that's being out, the KH13.com version around 4.24 min:
(btw, do we STILL have no translations of the second part of the ending concerning Ansem's data?).
If we are honest, does the whole issue make that much sense to begin with?
Why are suddenly 13 darknesses and 7 lights required for
one X-blade.
There isn't even the equality between light and dark included as was stated to be required to forge it.
I can understand that MX may have made a mistake by wanting only to use one light and dark heart at first, which was too weak to produce an actual X-blade.
But why isn't it then 7 darknesses and 7 lights or 13 darknesses and 13 lights?
I won't say we should rule Kairi out as a light, but I also would say not to set her as a given yet.
I am also happy she finally gets some importance, but we should not let that get over our heads.
From what I took from Mickey's statements six of the seven are already set with himself, Sora, Riku, Terra, Aqua and Ventus (although one may then ask from where
Mickey already knows that these six are "lights").
In the secret ending, the only thing Yen Sid gives away is that he heard that Kairi can also wield a keyblade and therefore requested her to be taken to him, but that doesn't mean she's also automatically one of the seven lights of the X-blade.
Except of course if people who are already "lights" could make others also "lights", in this case Aqua would have (inadvertently) made Kairi a light, same would go with Ventus regarding Sora and Terra would have made Riku one.
If they can however just
choose who will be the seven (contrary to what Xehanort says, as the dude isn't always right as well) they can practically take any Keyblade wielder that's somehow available.
