Roxas

[Xerxes]

call me stupid but does square enix have to name the bhk Roxas in the english version? even if his name does translate to it (or something). cant they just give him an entirley new name?

 

[Soul_Eater123]

they could but they won;t i like roxas though

 

[starry_eyed_hero]

umm, i'm sorry but I dont quite follow you.

are you saying that he should have the name "Roxas" in the japanese version, but he should have an entirely different name in the english version? why would anybody want that? it would only cause confusion.

no, i am saying does the japanese name (rokusaku or something) have to relate to the english name, which everyone says its Roxas

the japanese name is not relating to the english name, it's the other way around. His name was rokusaku or rock'em sock'em or whatever, and then that got translated into the english name, Roxas.

well, what is your point then? I feel like we've been through everything that your point could possibly be.

It's starting to sound like it's just as simple as this: you dont like the name Roxas. you wish they had given bhk a different name.

 

[Photious Harp]

I love the name Roxas!

 

[starry_eyed_hero]

Eh, I dont really like the name Roxas. It doesn't really have a nice ring to it. In fact, it kinda sounds like they're just tryin way too hard to make him sound cool.

my point is does he have to have the name roxas or can it be a different name in kh2

 

[starry_eyed_hero]

Well, ya, he does have to have the name now. They've already named him Roxas, and one version of the game has already been released with a jap version of that name. They cant just go and change his name now. It's too late for that.
