In the future game of Kingdom Hearts, who do you think will win the Mark of Master??? Sora or Riku??? Who would you want to win? I'd also concider what would make the story more interesting. I'd want Sora to win, but I have to admit, Riku winning would mix things up a bit What's your oppinion?

Is there a way that both of them could pass? I mean they are both really skilled, but I think Riku will struggle just like Terra did with the darkness. Or maybe it won't matter as much because Eraqus isnt testing them.

 

But if i had to choose, I would say that Sora would pass

The difference between Riku and Terra is that at this point, Riku has mastery of his darkness, as well as proficiency otherwise, which in turn would make him more skilled than Sora because he has power over darkness that Sora does not. So with that kind of control, I think that Riku will pass, with or without Sora.

The winner isn't decided on who beats who. Its who displays the ability to both show swordsmanship in this case "keybladesmenship" >_> and control their darkness

The test with Aqua and Terra is a good example of that.

Terra could have won as well if it was not for him letting his darkness get out of control

If you looks at sora closely you can categorize him as a keyblade wielder of light and Riku a keyblade wielder of Darkness. In their test, I think it'll be about who has the better "keybladesmenship"

i think both of them pass. and for the people who think riku might end up like terra i doubt ^_^ lol i dont think we have to worry about riku and the darkness since he overcame it in kh2 (getting rid of the whole ansem lool )

It's not a competition, but a test of heart. So they could both pass, or neither.

Yen Sid will likely be a fairer judge than Eraqus, and Riku has control over his darkness, unlike Terra, so he's likely to pass.

For when equal powers clash , their nature is revealed . It is to say they will both pass .

Just because that only Aqua became a keyblade master, doesn't mean that only Sora or Riku can only become a keyblade master. Both of them could become keyblade masters

Or neither, as the case may be.

Well, I would say both of them would win because the mark of mastery exam is about "strength of heart". As Eraqus has said himself, both of them may either pass the exam, fail the exam, or only one of them may become keyblade masters. So we'll just have to wait and see when more news about KH3D unfolds, or when the game itself comes out. But I'm pretty sure both Sora and Riku will pass the Exam. I mean, I'm pretty sure Riku will have a better chance at passing seeing as how he was able to conquer his own darkness during KH2 and 358/2 days, and also thanks to Ansem the Wise's machine where "anything could happen" which caused Ansem SoD to be truly defeated and allowing Riku to belong in the realm of light. As for Sora, well we all know that he is very important seeing how he is the "Key that connects to everything", and how he has been training since he was 4 years old.

I say both, they can both controll their darkness, but I'm thinking the test isn't gonna be like TA, but more like a challenge, a whole journey, and after the story is one they'll both become Masters, but it's be an interesting twist if Sora didn't pass ^^.

i want riku to win cause he's badass like that and he has control over his darkness unlike terra but i wonder what would happen in the story if both of them were to fail

Since when did Sora ever use Darkness? He never used the power of Darkness, his main power is Light. Riku is the one who uses Darkness, but uses it more maturely than Terra ever did.

Yes, but the darkness has been getting to Sora as time has gone on, and he has anti form, which is essentially him tapping into his inner darkness. I wouldn't be surprised if he begins to utilise the power of darkness as well.

Oh, that's right, because when Riku and Sora were in the realm of darkness shortly after they defeated Xemnas, Sora did say that darkness was getting to him. Plus, his Anti-Form was a sign that Sora was using Darkness. So, sorry for that mitake .

These are all awesome ideas, but do you really think Normura would just let both of them pass? Of course there's no doubt that they are both worthy, but why mention the mark of mastery if both of them would pass anyway? I'm snoring to the idea already. But who knows, you guys could be right. We'll just have to wait and see. I want a mix up though. Something out of the ordinary. Maybe for some reason they can't finish their exam! Then we'd all be somewhat satisfied

Mickey was in the middle of his mark of mastery exam during the events of BBS, so maybe the way Yen Sid does the exam is different than how Eraqus does it. And it's pretty likely that 3D will just be the exam, and Nomura wouldn't make a game that consists of a few fights and then end, so the game is going to have a few twists and turns in it.

Maybe Xehanort will move before they can finish the exam, we can't know right now.

I never said Sora'd fail because of the Darkness. Oh sorry, you mean "I say both, they can both controll their darkness,"? I meant that sora never gave up to the darkness and that Riku can controll it ^^

Yeah, that's also my idea. he makes his pupils travel to other worlds to hold the test ^^

I personally believe that Sora will pass. But since Riku has gotten the darkness under control, he may pass, along with Sora. I think there can be more than one Master of the Keyblade.

If 3D was Sora and Riku's mark of mastery exam, why would they look like they did in kh1? I don't see any reason for them to tap into their memories (again) just to complete it.

KH3D happens after Coded. Also, who said anything about tapping into memories? Maybe Yen Sid will teleport them into a replica of the universe, and send them out to complete certain tasks without actually interfering with the affairs of other worlds or wasting time when Xehanort could attack at any moment.

We can't know right now, there isn't enough information for us to know, but Nomura HAS stated that 3D will deal with their exam.

You know what would be amazing? If after completing the Mark of Mastery, Sora says 'We're the champs!' does a pose from Olympus Coliseum, and then the credits roll.

Um, not to be a party pooper, but you do realize that the ending of KH3D will have a ending that's supposed to be "shocking" right? Just pointing that out^^.

I think Sora doing a pose after The Mark Of Mastery will be shocking .
