just some theories on the connection between Terra, Aqua, Ven, and Sora, Riku, Kairi. I'll try not to have Days spoilers but I think there will be.
I think its pretty much safe to say that TAV chose SRK to weild the keyblade after them, because the Lingering Sentiment mistakes sora for "the one he has chosen" and the Engmatic Soldier may not be Terra exactly, but we can assume its his spirit. SRK's names mean land, sea and sky while TAV's names mean earth, water, and wind. And not only their names but their personalities are complimentary as well. Terra is stong but can succumb to darkness if not careful, much like Riku. Ven is kind and befriends many of the people on the different worlds, like Sora. And Aqua cares very much for her friends, just like the worry-wart Kairi.
TAV have all been on Destiny Islands at one point or another. And Aqua talks about the paopu fruit and makes charms for them. Maybe one day they see SRK all playing together and discover their personalities are alike, and figure it would be best if they shared the same values so they would make keyblade weilders as good as themselves.
Now on to the specifics.
TERRA AND RIKU
It seems that Terra and Riku have similar story lines. They're fighting against darkness either inside or outside them.
It looks like Terra would succumb to darkness for power, maybe so he could find MX and destroy him.
They both seek the princesses of heart. But for different reasons. But maybe after tracking down the princesses of heart for a while Terra realizes what power they hold and figures he could use that power for himself.
Its even similar when Vanitas says "I mean it exactly as I said it. The existence known as Terra will soon disappear." We don't know exactly what he's talking about but maybe he just meant that Terra has changed a lot. I mean when Riku transformed into Riku-Ansem, Riku pretty much didn't exist anymore. I mean Xehanort's heartless was trying to take over his whole body. Also if Terra is Xehanort this would explain why he chose Riku to posses. He probably already knew he would give in to darkness easily to get power, even if it meant Riku losing the keyblade to Sora.
VENTUS AND SORA and why roxas looks like ven.
blah blah blah they're very much the same but lets focus on why Sora got the keyblade and why Roxas looks like Ven.
So we all know Riku was orginally chosen for the Keyblade but because he chose darkness the keyblade went to sora.
Now lets say Ven did chose sora to wield in bbs and by the end of the game Ven gets "erased" or at least his memories do(as it is a reoccurring theme in KH). But a person w/out memories isn't really a person is it? So w/ Ven being erased the keyblade goes only to Riku but when he chooses darkness the Keyblade goes to Sora because of the connection between Terra and Ven. This sort of awakens something in Sora and now Ven is a part of Sora. Because of Ven's memories hidden away deep inside Sora and because of the short time he had as a heartless Roxas didn't have time to gain memories of his past life so took the immediate shape of Ven.
But to people he still resembles Sora a lot even though they practically look like 2 different people. He's still Sora's nobody so people are gonna see Roxas as Sora and not Ven.
Now i think some people will say "If Ven was erased why do Xigbar and Xemnas still remember him?" Well he didn't necessarily die the same way Xion did. And w/ Xion her memories w/ Roxas and Axel were kind of fake, I mean can a replica really have memories? Sure she was made from memories, but can she make some of her own to be remembered forever? So once a replica dies the memories of it will die as well As if they never existed.
But Ven wasn't a replica as far as we know and his memories we still very much alive in his friends and the people he met. I mean t hasn't been confirmed exactly what happens when a human loses their memories completely. because Xehanort had no recollection of his past but he was still able to remember the name Xehanort, maybe because of his deep hatred for him. So I'm guessing strong feelings can keep some memories alive. Like when Kairi forgets Sora and Riku but still remembers them and that they used to play together.
AQUA AND KAIRI
This connection is a bit tricky. Because what can a princess of heart have in common w/ Aqua? Can you even chose a princess to wield? And of course its debatable as to whether Kairi is even a wielder in the first place[FONT=verdana, helvetica].[/FONT]Because the keyblade she uses in KHII is actually Riku's made up from the memories of Destiny Islands. And it has been said that Aqua has the littlest connection to SRK.
Maybe you guys could help out w/ this one?
Thats pretty much all i got and this is my first thread.
and Also its just a theory, so no flaming pls.
