In all reality it depends on what you're going for

Usually they fit some theme of the world but then you have the few that more so match a character or theme outside of a world

Naturally they should somewhat resemble a Key but let's be real we've deviated in a handful of cases

I mean. typically there is the hilt, the blade and the teeth

@GoldenDrummer730#4323 Mind if i post a picture of a drawing of mine in here to show an example of how to design a keyblade or na?

Hmm yeah sure

Sick

So here, you have the rounded hilt, the stick representing the blade and the headphones being the teeth, along with a compass keychain. Just a simple drawing but it gets the jist across

@ali3n.0bserv3r

I love you thanks.

Np!

I’m suffering.

I love making Keyblades.

Man.

Axel's original VA has unfortunately died. I think Square Enix will dedicate Kingdom Hearts 4 to his memory.

Wait what?

Yeah, he died in 2020

Shame too- that dude was Reno, and a whole bunch of other great characters

Too be clear; They're talking about the Japanese voice actor

Ok, that's what I was confused about lol

Quinton Flynn is still alive... for better or worse

I literally cannot see anyone else voicing Axel, but Quinton is...

Could cast the guy who voiced Reno in 7R

Arnie Pantoja?

No idea, I've just seen som clips, and he sounds close enough

Yeah, I could see it

What actually interesting was that Reno was voiced by Quinton Flynn in Advent Children and Crisis Core

That... was my point

Ah makes sense

I remember Quinton kept complaining on his Twitter about the recasting. So it would be low-key hilarious if they recast him in KH as well using the same guy they recast him with in 7R

l stiII don't get why that recast happened
