I’ve seen people say they weren’t happy with how all the Organization members apart from Young Xehanort,Vanitas and Xigbar where redeemed at the end of KH3. However personally I would say those weren’t redemptions, but I was curious what everyone else’s thoughts were do you consider any of the Real Organization XIII redeemed at the end of KH3 or not?
Honestly the only character who could possibly be considered redeemed is Riku Replica considering he gave up his chance to become his own person in order to save Namine. I would say that Saix and Vexen could be considered redeemed as well, however Isa still has a lot of apologising to do especially to Xion.
Terra and Xion don’t count as redemptions in my opinion as they were being controlled they weren’t bad to begin with as they were just being used by someone else and needed to be freed from their control so I count those two as being saved instead of redeemed.
As for everyone else they weren’t redeemed in my opinion since:
Xemnas, Ansem and Master Xehanort - They weren’t redeemed, they just knew when they were finally deafeated and accepted it in the end”
Luxord - Although he had a nice chat with Sora in the end and gave him that card, I don’t think he can be considered redeemed considering we have no idea what that card even does only that it “ could turn the tables” but how?
Marluxia - Even though he got his memory back and is going to be Lauriam again, he hasn’t actually done anything redeeming yet. Although he hasn’t been redeemed in KH3, given his importance in Union X he is definitely getting redeemed in a future game.
Larxene - Definitely not redeemed in KH3, although she spoke nicer to Sora at the last possible moment, I feel that Larxene ending was more showing that Elrena is coming back since I believe that was Elrena who spoke at the end not Larxene and I believe the rest of that cutscene was Larxene speaking and trying to resist Elrena personality from taking over in the end. Considering Lauriam is most likely getting redeemed in a future game she is most likely going to be as well even if she going to probably going to be reluctantly helping since at this point in the series it’s clear that wherever Lauriam goes, Elrena is going to be there too after all she said herself “ I was really just along for the ride“. ( Also speaking of those two they really are going to have a lot of apologising to do to Naminé if they are getting redeemed so hopefully Nomura doesn’t make this happen off-screen.)
And as for the other characters they made it very clear they aren’t planning on changing their ways.
What is everyone else’s thoughts do you believe the characters endings can be considered redemptions or not?
