Hi, I'm new here. I've been thinking about a certain topic and I need an outlet to express myself among other devoted fans. So Organization members have been confirmed to return to their full selves in Kingdom Hearts 3D right? Well I was trying to figure out what the main goal of Kingdom Hearts 2 was... and I came to the conclusion that it was to stop the Organization (Which seemed like a dumb way to drive the plot... who were they hurting by trying to restore themselves??). In the end, Sora and Riku stop Xemnas and the others and save the day.
But now in 3D we find out that by defeating the Organization, Sora actually accomplished their plan for them.... so what I'm asking is: Did the events of Kingdom Hearts 2 make ANY progress in Sora's story? Or was the plot even more flawed than I thought...
The main goals of KH 2 were
1st finally find Riku and bring him back to Destiny Islands (personal goal for Sora)
2nd save the worlds from the threat of Organization XIII, who
are villains (except for Roxas) and not just some misunderstood woobies.
A dumb way to drive the plot? Excuse me?
The Organization was capturing hearts en masse preventing them from being reunited with their true body, messed up countless worlds by unleashing heartless on them (the very same thing Ansem SoD did in KH 1) and deliberately attacking and manipulating innocents in order to
turn them into heartless.
They were no less dangerous to the worlds than Ansem SoD and his heartless legions were in the first game.
Xemnas and the Org existed as the main threat during that time, so they had to be stopped as was already confirmed.
Yen Sid knew according to Nomura that something like the return of the somebodies would be possible, but it couldn't be avoided since the worlds were in danger
right then.
I think it was stated somewhere that the Organization didn't necessarily want their old hearts back, but rather they wanted entirely new hearts. However, now that many of their original selves have returned, I would imagine that most of them would be satisfied with the outcome.
Sora's main goal wasn't to prevent the Organization from getting hearts of their own. His main goal was to stop the Organization from continuing all the dangerously evil stuff that they were doing in their pursuit to get hearts of their own.
The plot for KH2 definitely has its flaws in how it was structured and presented. However, Sora's efforts ultimately did accomplish a great deal, and many dangerous forces that threatened the world were eliminated... or at least temporally delayed.
As for Sora's progress as a character... I guess by confronting an enemy that wasn't aligned with darkness, he learned to not view things as strictly black and white, but he did develop a bit of a prejudice against things that can't feel emotions...
Yes, that was confirmed. The nobodies of Organization XIII wanted to have all benefits of a heart and acquire one to be whole, but they
didn't want to become their somebodies again.
In the end it comes down to the same end result anyways, they were threatening masses of innocents and disrupting entire worlds big time, so they had to be eliminated.
I seriously don't get it why there is still so much effort put into excusing the stupid Organization. Them not having true emotions doesn't excuse their crimes against the universe, that's as idiotic as gaining sympathy for a murderer or rapist in real life because he/she had a bad childhood.
The Org was pretty much aligned with darkness though, although Sora indeed doesn't care what
element was in play. If you threaten the worlds or friends of Sora you're going down.
Not to mention they were constantly messing around with Sora, using him and playing mind games, it's not that surprising he got pissed after a while with their constant meddling and endangering others.
In the end, they got what they deserved out of their own fault.
i know
i just can't fathom anything being worse than the mess that's inside of sora, lol
The mess inside of Xehanort and his whole soccer team perhaps?
Unlike Sora's heart hotel though, we know very little about the Xehanort mess.
