Posted September 26, 201015 yr ...when they realized the "X-Blade" was pronounced keyblade. That was a little disappointing for me. "Ex-blade" sounds so much cooler. Plus its a little weird calling it that. What the hell were they thinking?
September 26, 201015 yr Well X is an actual greek letter pronounced "key". In Plato's Timaeus, it is explained that the two bands which form the soul of the world cross each other like the letter ?. So I guess they used that in reference to light and darkness being a balance in the world.
