I know that there are alot of people who want to experience how it would be if Riku had a nobody. Well when there was the Riku Replica didn't it feel like riku had a nobody. Here's why

1. he looked just like riku and had the same weapon and same dark powers.

2. when he met with riku he was called the fake and wanted a real heart

3. he could remember his life on the islands with Sora and Kairi

4. Didn't it look like he was in the Organization when he was around the members in CO and when he was helping with there plan.

 

So it was like riku had a nobody and what would've happened if riku had a nobody did happen including looking like riku, having a weapon like the real riku's, wanting a heart, remembering previous life, hanging around organization members. It was like he was the 15th member.

 

NOTE: I'm not saying the Riku Replica is Riku's nobody I'm saying he's acting as if he was Riku's nobody, which he's not.

Yeah, it did feel like Repliku was Riku's Nobody!

People seriously needs to stop complaining about that Riku don't have a Nobody!

IIRC, in one of the secret reports in Days, someone writes that replicas are essentially Nobodies. Don't remember who though...

 

I'm just going to argue with a few of your points though:

 

2. When he met with Riku, he knew he was a fake, but he didn't care. He was perfectly fine with being a tool and a replica of someone else.

3. He could remember because Namine was forced to give him the memories of the real Riku. Originally, he had his own memories. And Nobodies aren't fakes because they are basically the same as the original, only lacking a heart.

4. Didn't seem like he was treated as a member. Everyone treated him as merely a tool, or an underling to carry out all the dirty work.

@ VenJoe13, I agree with u, sometimes I thought that good old Repliku was Riku's nobody

i have to say that i never really thought of repliku as a nobody, but i did thoroughly as a character, especially at the end of his life and his exertions!

"THAT'S RIGHT! I'M A PHONY! A FAKE! THE WAY I LOOK! THE WAY I FEEL! EVERYTHING! EVEN...THIS NEW FOUND POWER! I THOUGHT THAT BY FINDING SOME NEW STRENGTH THAT I COULD FEEL DIFFERENT! BUT IT DIDN'T DO ANYTHING! EVERYTHING ABOUT ME IS BORROWED! AS LONG AS YOU'RE AROUND...I'LL NEVER BE MORE THAN A SHADOW!

i love that scene

Same here. One of my favorite scenes in the game. David Gallagher is a such a great VA.
