Xenmas' memories

[AxelsVirtue]

It's well known that a Nobody is supposed to retain the memories of thier somebody, at least the memories they had before becoming a Heartless. So if the somebody had amnesia, you'd think the Nobody would only have the memories from after the amnesia. But based on a number of small hints, not to mention the scene with Aqua's armor, it seems as though Xenmas regained the memorys that the Heartless calling himself Ansem still seemed to not remember.

This would seem to be the case no matter who he used to be, Terra or Venitas.

I stated the same idea but in a little more detail in my thread here:

Heartless don't usually get the memories of their original selves. They turn in to beings who don't think or feel. The Heartless's only goal is to get as much hearts as possible which is why Kingdom Hearts, the heart of all worlds, is there goal. The only reason why Ansem could think is because his Somebody had a very strong heart. The memories didn't come to him.
