Now, we all know the keyblade is a powerful weapon, but my theory is that it’s the keyblade master’s heart which is the true weapon and each keyblade master’s keyblade is connected to their heart. Now, anyone can create a keyblade, it simply takes someone with a strong enough heart to bring it out. Also, I think there are different kinds of hearts (example- heart of a fighter, heart of a lover, etc...) Sora and Riku both have keyblades, meaning that they have the hearts of a fighter. Kairi, being a princess of heart, has a heart of a lover, which means that she has none, if any, darkness in her heart, but she is able to change her heart from a lover’s to a fighter’s to save Sora, which is why she gains a keyblade. Riku is a warrior of Twilight, so his keyblade looks twilightish and Kairi is sort of girly, so her keyblade looks like it. Although all the Princesses of heart had hearts strong enough to create a keyblade, their hearts weren’t the right type. When Xehonart/Riku in HB creates the dark keyblade, which can release hearts, he uses the princesses of hearts’ hearts (except Kairi’s) to create it. The reason why the keyblade has no keychain is because it was formed by 6 hearts, so it’s a fusion of hearts, making an artificial/fusion keyblade. If Keyblades are created to the heart, they are sorta connected to that heart, which is why Sora can only summon his keyblade and can’t summon Mickey’s whenever he wants. A keyblade master can ‘lend’ another keyblade master his/her keyblade, making it his/hers temporarily (like Riku does with Sora in the final battle with Xemnas)
(The following is additional proof, but only if you assume/believe Xehonart was a keyblade master:
#1- If a Keyblade is just an extension of the heart, then a being with a deep connection with his heart should be able to open locks with just his heart. In Ansem Report # 5, Xehonart talks about how he followed a heartless to the door to the heart of hollow bastion and how he opened the door. The only being that comes to mind that could open a door which leads to the heart of a world is a Keyblade Master.
#2- another idea why the dark keyblade didn’t have a keychian- perhaps it was his original keyblade, formed by his heart, but it was warped by the darkness he was consumed by during an experiment. Since it’s not its true form, it can’t have the keychain, since it belongs to the original keyblade.)
Although I think my theory has a good deal of proof, there are 3 events which could say this is wrong:
#1- Riku is able to take Sora’s keyblade in HB (my answer-maybe if a keyblade master’s heart is significantly stronger, it’s able to break the bond between the keyblade master’s heart, and his/her keyblade)
#2- Why is it that Riku had Kairi’s Keyblade in TWTNW? (my answer- maybe she didn’t know how to summon it, and Riku, having a stronger heart, was able to break the bond between her heart and her keyblade so he could give it to her)
#3- why did Mickey have to go to the Realm of Darkness to get his keyblade? (my answer- we’ve all assumed that Mickey’s keyblade is the keyblade of darkness, and Mickey, being a being of light, had difficulty bringing it out, since his light was so powerful, that the keyblade couldn’t take form, So he went to the realm of darkness to strengthen it enough so he could summon it)
Agreements/Disagreements? ...anyone?
