Okay for some reason I can't remember exactly HOW or WHY Riku looks like Xehanort in  KH2. I beat the game THREE times, and clocked several dozen hours in the game, but for some reason I cant even remember something as simple as this... Could someone enlighten me?

you mean why he looks like ansem sod? Ansem was a large amount of the darkness in rikus heart

Because remember in kh1 when Riku was being sort of controlled? Well when Riku have himself up to darkness to defeat Roxas, he transformed into that because Ansem SoD was in his heart

So that's the reason! lol its been forever since i've played Days, so I totally forgot. Thanks

Well, he made the ultimate sacrifice for Sora. He knew Sora would never wake up unless he captured Roxas. Roxas proved too strong for him to beat on his own and so he had to unleash the remnants of Ansem SoD in his heart to gain the power he needed.

thats becouse he doesent look like xehonort. he looks like ansem sod. but its becouse he needed to beat roxas pretty much. he had to surrender to the darkness in his heart to gain the power to defeat roxas. that dark power was ansem sod.

He looks like Ansem SOD because he had to us the powers of darkness.

Dang it! You all beat me to the answer!

When Ansem left Riku's body, a part of him survived in Riku's Darkness. During Riku and Roxas's fight, Riku unleashed his darkness to win against Roxas and by doing so he became Riku-Ansem.
