Does Riku even have a mother tho :vanitasthink:

Not really, he didn't like maleficent.

He did. On the inside

He calls her a hag

He didn't show it

He loves her really

I think the novels imply that he, at most,, has a dad @Otti#8624 @Novayon

And so he decides to take up Ansem's offer.

Riku ate his own mother?

He did, subjectively speaking

But he apparently has a very rocky relationship with his dad to begin with

But Riku believing Maleficent was dumb as hell

Riku had an abusive father

so ansem was already a better father to him apparently

Riku was stupidly jealous of Sora

The only parents that I remember ever being mentioned is Sora's dad and mom

Mom in KH1 and dad in BBS

When your dad possesses you

LOOOOOOL^

Fyi, guys..

Riku lives in a beach house in the novel

Riku says "we may never see our parents again." In kh1

I actually don't care for the novels. Like why are they there and not in the freaking games. It just gives me such expanded universe vibes

Screw that

So I don't get why Riku hates his dad so much

Ooh, he did say that!

Parents and Japanese things like this seem to not go together

Kairi literally is an orphan.
