The way he straight up kills Kairi without any warning just to get on with his plan is incredibly brutal. And notice how he smiles doing it, he enjoys killing.

Xehanort wasn't pure evil, he was a regular boy like the rest of the cast who eventually found his way to being possessed by darkness. since he was a strong keyblade weilder, he didnt let the darkness control him, so he controlled the darkness to an extent because darkness has its own will as well to ensure its survival. darkness's will was made greater because of MX's. as explained in Union Cross that wills, either good or bad, can manifest and become stronger when joined with forces of either light or darkness. crystalizing Kairi was the will of darkness and not MX so that it ensured its own survival after already being defeated 12 times in the KH3 keyblade war (armored MX being the 13th) so i think darkness crystalized Kairi using MX's body as a mediumThe way he straight up kills Kairi without any warning just to get on with his plan is incredibly brutal.

To add to this, why would he feel remorse for people who wouldn’t exist after he used the power of Kingdom Hearts?Evil, but not pure evil. He wasn't smiling because he enjoys killing, he was smiling because he got closer to his goals.
He is the kind of guy who wants to do good at first, but lets his arrogance and feelings of superiority delude him into thinking only he can do good.
I have found Master Xehanort to have some of the weirdest character tics in fictional media. Smiling weirdly and putting on the Jim Carrey Count Olaf eyebrow raise is one of them. ...It might also be a Sephiroth tic/reference, as Sephiroth (actually rather subtly) smiles in FFVII.The way he straight up kills Kairi without any warning just to get on with his plan is incredibly brutal.

I find MX to be (ineffectively written) as an idiot absorbed in his arrogance; he doesn't deserve praise, imo, despite being presented as this master chess player. (No offense to Nomura and co., but for the most part, I don't buy the writing.) He has to earn it first. Kefka Palazzo is a lot more bearable with his childish antics and Kylo Ren-esque tantrums. At least you get the sense that Kefka tried, anyways.Evil, but not pure evil. He wasn't smiling because he enjoys killing, he was smiling because he got closer to his goals.

Helping people is a big stretch.At the end of KH III, Xehanort reveals that his plan all along was to destroy all the worlds to create something better for everyone. Really, his goal in the beginning was to help people and make a better world for them, but the darkness ended up controlling him more and more.
My main evidence for him not being pure evil is at the end of KH III when he realizes how evil he has been and how many people his plan effected, but he is forgiven and he turns toward the light before rising up to Kingdom Hearts with his old friend, Eraqus.
