ForeverKH 32 Posted September 7, 2014 So... I was bored, and then this came to my mind. Why the X-Blade looks so much like the Kingdom Key? (notice this is only something that came to my mind in a boring emotional state) I just want to see your thoughts Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ruby Rose 8,591 Posted September 7, 2014 Because it's made up of two Kingdom Keys with a blade attached 4 MasterRoxas13, Sendou Aichi, SorrowSurvivor and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Josuke Higashikata 2,141 Posted September 7, 2014 I'd always assumed that since the Kingdom Key is the most natural form for a Keyblade, that the X-blade, which is basically the perfect Keyblade would take the form of two of them. (Or is it the other way around?) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robbie the Wise 5,050 Posted September 7, 2014 It's the other way around all keyblades were made in the image of the X-Blade. 4 Kittenz, Exiblade7, Shulk and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nick Sideris 1,551 Posted September 7, 2014 It might just be symbolic . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScarletArisa 128 Posted September 7, 2014 I also think it is a symbolical purpose but it could also be a reference in KH 3 so we have to wait patiently... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyblader_95 1,410 Posted September 7, 2014 The X-Blade is the true and only legendary Keyblade, all the others are less powerful copies of it! So, plotwise, the Kingdom Key it's the one that took the appearance of the X-Blade and, development-wise, it's the other way around. But, ever since we discovered about the X-Blade, I always thought that somehow Sora is like the human form of the X-Blade and Kairi is like the human form of Kingdom Hearts.. this could be one way to explain why Sora (I know it was Riku originally but yolo) got to wield the Keyblade that most resembles the X-Blade. I wouldn't be surprised at all if we were to discover about a connection between X-Blade and Kingdom Key, after all the latter has unique powers compared to other Keyblades.

Exiblade7 1,917 Posted September 7, 2014 Maybe because the kingdom key is strongly connected to the X-blade and how the X-blade was made. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like your theory of Sora being the X-Blade, I found it really interesting, But we only have to wait and see. Because Nomura can do all types of plot twists. 1 Keyblader_95 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MasterRoxas13 340 Posted September 7, 2014 I wondered this too when I first played BBS but I guess we will find out in KH3 . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shulk 8,623 Posted September 7, 2014 It could be because the Kingdom Key is the most basic Keyblade that we've seen. It's likely that the first Keyblades were designed to look like that, and since they were made in the image of the X-Blade, they look identical. Or Nomura just felt like making it look that way. I think that one's more likely. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
