I forgot that 0.2 basically throws in why Mickey loses his shirt...

Who's assuming the writer's intentions now?

You?

Wait what

You kinda have been trying to figure out the reasoning behind his mindset for the surprise for Aqua

Everyone is always complaining that the people who criticize KH3 assume the intentions of those involved, almost like they know what's going on the writer's heads.
But when the defense force assumes his intentions and say "oh, it wasn't meant to be important", well, then it's fine

We’re not being a defense force but okay then..

Hefty amount of logic you're using there

It's different to theorize why he reacted a certain way than to assume what he was planning regarding a plot point

But we are talking about Kairi's character as a whole here. Her caring for where she came from was only relevant in KH1. Why would the Radiant Garden part of herself be important in any way if it was never brought up again in any future games other than to tie up where she came from?

Well, you see, maybe just maybe, Nomura was planning on it being somewhat important for future events, but couldn't make it come to fruition due to unfavorable circumstances

But that's just a theory

It wasn’t bought up during 2 either, another game,.

With well.. ties to BBS

If he did and says so, then my bad

But it's entirely possible you're right though, Otti

But looking at all the games so far for her, it doesn't seem like he did

Oh right, I forgot, silly me

Kairi wasn't meant to have any importance in the plot aside from her immutable characteristics that did not depend on any character development whatsoever

I have hopes that 3 opened a huge door for her

But that’s all it is:

A hope, an opinion

3D gave hope

0.2 gave hope

And I pray that Nomura doesn't shut that door closed right on your face, Ama

I really do

KH3 opened the door wider still

Heh

KH3 opened the door the widest yet, and I fairly believe it

And he'll keep opening the door until it does a 360 and closes again
