why did Riku have a blind fold on during 358/2 and kingdom hearts 2

To suppress his darkness.

^ That. And when I heard Mickey say the, "His eyes couldn't lie" line, I always thought it was to hide his weakness and to keep his eyes from betraying him if he did have to lie or something. .w.;;;

even to this day i still dont understand how a blindfold supressed his darkness i mean really how?

Magic

Where did you hear it was to supress his darkness? I think I know where you are coming from but it still isn't making sense to me.

The scene in Days wher Mickey sees him in the woods of Twilight Town. He's in Ansem's form, puts the blindfold on, and goes back to his normal self. Then at the end, he takes the blindfold off and turns into Ansem again.

I don't think it's so much that the blindfold suppresses his darkness, but to fit in with "his eyes couldn't lie", it's more that his eyes revealed the true darkness within him, so the blindfold covered his eyes to cover his darkness.

that makes much more sense^^^^

again, his eyes showed his darkness, and he couldnt lie to himself about who he really was now. also, cuz of magic, thats probably why he isnt running into everything

The blindfold wasn't just to supress the darkness within him, but it was also to control Ansem SoD from within him to make sure he wouldn't get the best of Riku again. And the whole "his eyes couldn't lie" thing that Mickey said. It was because if people were to look deeply in his eyes, they would show that Riku's been using darkness.

like mickey said to sora in kh2, ''his eyes couldnt lie'' then went on about how he used it to keep the darkness from him, only mickey and ansem the wise knows the answer to why riku was wearing it so yeah

always thought it was because riku still had ansem sod in his heart and through days he was getting stronger and riku was afraid he would take control again. so he put the blind fold on to kind of cover up the darkness and the deseption of eyes. that even though he looked like sod, it was still riku underneath

maybe the blindfold is like made of same materiel from the cloak

Sod was just so ugly Riku just couldnt stand it lol!!

Yeah, it was worn to keep the Darkness to take over him, but so that he could take over it instead. Nomura stated on an interview, that on the reverse/rebirth ending Riku had already put the blindfold on, but we can't see it.

Riku used the blindfold to try to keep his darkness inside of himself.

 

~Why must he be so depresssing?~

 

P.S The blindfold looks epic

He was hiding the darkness within himself.

He was basically hiding the darkness but im suprised he didnt trip over anything during the game

Do you mean as trip (as in fell) or trip (as in he was triping)? Lol

I meant falling. Was it a see-though blind fold?? Lol

Oh. Lol

Can't you just quote on my post? Is that really hard? O_O

(So that way I would know you are replying on my quote)

Because he is training to be a ninja.

 

In the next game, you won't even be able to see him.
