Gosh did I never post this thought I had? Apologies if I actually did but wow. Xaldin's manipulation of the Beast really heavily echoes the way Maleficent and Ansem manipulated Riku. He tries to convince him Belle doesn't really care about him, she just cares about other things, and Beast's 'I've had enough of strength' even kind of echoes that strength wasn't really what Riku wanted.

Also in the context of this metaphor 'Who could ever love a beast?' takes on a very gay implication

Soriku | Realm of Darkness

[themelodiousnobody]

it is interesting... in kh2 halloweentown, sally and jack are like "im happy just so long as i can be with you" and they have donald and goofy telling sora like "im sure kairi's the same way". but at the end of the game when sora and riku are in the realm of darkness, they don't even try to find a way back to everyone else until a way just literally appears for them. because they're happy just being together.

i put the scenes side by side (cut down a bit for time, so know that my added transitions are the swipe effect, the fade to black in the RoD scene is a canon implication of the passing of time)

(i was curious if that "maybe i never gave her a real present after all" line from sora was meant to be specifically about kairi in jp, or if it was one of SENA's signature "assuming this statement is specifically referring to kairi when it's probably intended to be more ambiguous" moments.

according to a friend, that initial line in jp IS more of a "maybe i've never given a real present before" in general kind of statement. which is a very small detail, but something to consider)

it's also interesting how, when sora imagines himself and kairi dancing together in place of jack and sally, they aren't imitating the more classically romantic hand placements that j+s are doing

instead, it more resembles the little dance sora does with donald and goofy at the beginning of the game
