Nomura originally intended to keep the ranking idea for members of the second organization. However, he scrapped the idea mid-production, believing it would have been too confusing for players to see members from the first iteration of the Organization holding a new rank. Thus they have all their meetings in the Keyblade Graveyard, instead of the Round Room. Though, I guess the ranks could still be present given where each member of the Organization stood to Master Xehanort's side when they faced the Seven Guardians of Light.

Agreed; it makes more sense.([[Special:Contributions/96.68.6.221|96.68.6.221]] 22:36, 13 March 2019 (UTC))
== Time period Ansem was recruited from ==
First thought would suggest the brief period at the end of KH1, when Ansem is in Riku's body, but when Ansem says "What a journey you and I have had" to Riku, doesn't it imply that it's from much later in the story? After the Kingdom Hearts Encoder explodes, but before Xemnas is defeated, perhaps? If both Ansem and Xemnas were recruited during that interlude when Kingdom Hearts is raining hearts, it would make sense for them to have such familiar discourse with Sora and Riku during 3D and KH3. Anybody? - [[User:Joveus|Joveus]] ([[User talk:Joveus|talk]]) 16:44, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
:I don't think we can assume much that isn't stated along those veins. The Twilight Town gang and Rinzler both make it clear that memories can be "reacquired" through the chain of memories.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 17:05, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
== Time members were collected from ==
Since it's ambiguous as to when many members where collected from, I think the references to recruitment should all just go under a "Before ''Kingdom Hearts coded''" section. --[[User:Vanitas|Vanitas]] ([[User talk:Vanitas|talk]]) 17:00, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
:We don't do "before" though if we have both boundaries. We do "Between".
:Regarding TX, it doesn't really seem like he had that for more than a few moments, and he was still confused. Seeing as Terra-Xehanort knows he's a Xehanort in KH3, I think it would only make sense for him to be from before giving himself amnesia. We also don't really have any reason to believe that Young Xehanort hopped again -- the Xehanort Experience Record has him showing up in Land of Departure right before the final battle, so it would make sense that he yoinks Vanitas's heart right before his destruction (or right when it happens), and Terra-Xehanort's soon after.
:"Arriving in the period of his older self's first attempt to reignite the Keyblade War" -- why are you removing that?{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 17:08, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
That's all speculation though. A few moments is fine for all we know, why would he show up at LoD to collect Vanitas when Vanitas wasn't even there etc. Where we don't know fact we should be ambiguous e.g. "during his time travels Young Xehanort collects Vanitas, Terra-Xehanort, Ansem, and Xemnas from unknown points in their history". --[[User:Vanitas|Vanitas]] ([[User talk:Vanitas|talk]]) 17:42, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
::Your question about LoD doesn't make sense to me. The point is that he was present at that period of time. He's not bound to a world.
::It's not ''really'' speculation. We're told that it's their hearts "from the past", and there are known periods of time when they even existed. Vanitas has to be from the period of time when he looked like evil Sora, and wasn't yet destroyed, so basically from the start of KHBbS to when he merges with Ventus. Terra-Xehanort has to exist, have the No Name, and not have amnesia, so -- from the battle at KG to the battle at RG. Ansem has to exist and look like he does, so from the battle at RG to the battle at EotW. Xemnas is really the only one with any real mystery to when he was taken -- he existed in his current form anywhere from a year after BbS, during KH1, thru Days, and into KH2 -- as the article already acknowledges. You could ''speculate'' that YX picked up Xemnas at RG when he picked up Ansem, for parsimony's sake, but that's unsupportable.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 18:34, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
Nothing says they have to look like that, they could have just fashioned the replicas to appear that way; Replica appearance can easily change, as shown by Xion. Vanitas could have been from the moment he was born (pre-BBS) or from the moment Ventus connected with Sora (pre-BBS) if he has to look like Sora. Terra-Xehanort could still feasibly be from post-BBS even ignoring the scene of his declaration of being "Ansem": remember Terra-Xehanort appears in 0.2, which is way after BBS, and knows who he is in that game - he could have been picked up from then. Since it's "Ansem's heart" that was collected - which still exists in CoM via Riku - he could have been obtained from CoM. Multiple possibilities means anything put on the article claiming to be certain is speculation, so it should be ambiguous. --[[User:Vanitas|Vanitas]] ([[User talk:Vanitas|talk]]) 20:43, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
:"Vanitas could have been from the moment he was born (pre-BBS)" -- BbS covers all of the scenes in BbS, ''including'' the scene where Xehanort brings Ventus to Destiny Islands, and his heart connects with Sora's -- the moment that Vanitas changed from being a black shadowy creature to having Sora's face.
:"they could have just fashioned the replicas to appear that way" -- both CoM, Days, and KH3 all tell us that Replicas don't work like that. They are shaped by memories. Before hearts are implanted, they look like the empty Replica that Sora retrieved from Dark Riku, a featureless husk. Xion's appearance changed ''because'' she was being filled by a heart, not at a whim.
:"which is way after BBS" -- not exactly. The course of the game lasts ten years, but it doesn't start off years after KHBbS. That was also a subconscious communication between their hearts, not the active Terra-Xehanort in the real world. I'll admit that I'm not 100% about that, though. The XER doesn't clear it up.
:"which still exists in CoM via Riku" -- that's a different Ansem. As I read the XER, it looks like it's saying that the Ansem collected was before the Heartless was defeated, which would match with what the reports say about why it needed a Replica in the first place.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 21:50, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
All pages refer to the BBS flashbacks as "Before BBS" (see [[Ventus]] for example). In KHIII, the Replica body of Xion changes due to being overflown with her present counterpart's memories, this could theoretically have occurred with the likes of Vanitas - whose heart was repaired by the Unversed in the present and through encountering his counterparts. The XER connects CoM Ansem to DDD Ansem, so if anything it implies he is Ansem from CoM, there's no implication he's KH Ansem. --[[User:Vanitas|Vanitas]] ([[User talk:Vanitas|talk]]) 11:57, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
::Hmm. They shouldn't. That scene isn't presented as a flashback.
::Vanitas has Sora's appearance specifically because his heart was connected to Sora's through Ventus. Him absorbing negativity from the Unversed wouldn't do that.
::So, we've got two things. The XER seems to say that the KH3D Ansem boss fight (implied to be within Riku's heart, and thus the "lurking" Ansem) and the Ansem who shows up as a member of the RO13 are the same Ansem. And yet SR8 in KH3 specifically says "The old man's humanity prevents his Heartless and Nobody, others vanquished in the past, and his younger self from being denizens of this time." If RO13 Ansem was just the Ansem in Riku's heart, there'd be no conflict and this line wouldn't make any sense. (On a side note, it's not explicitly stated, but the "darkness lurking in Riku's heart" is essentially the same issue as the RO13 members having a fragment of Xehanort's heart. SR8 only makes sense if the RO13 Ansem is the Ansem from before the KH1 finale.) So, yeah, I can agree things aren't clear with that guy. Which is a mess, it made a bit more sense beforehand, and I find it kind of hard to believe that Young Xehanort could just approach Riku and get Ansem's heart out of him without Riku noticing.
::Still, Vanitas and Terra-Xehanort I can only see as coming from one time.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 12:47, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
Well that's how I've always seen this wiki structured, so that's why I'm applying it here. Don't you think he doesn't necessarily need to be near them (e.g. "collect Vanitas from LoD") so he wouldn't even need to approach Riku right? The journal in III also notes that Terra-Xehanort has Master Xehanort's heart (plus he does not know who Lingering Will is), so he could even feasibly have Master Xehanort's heart from any point in time. Would be good if we could get input from others on this discussion... --[[User:Vanitas|Vanitas]] ([[User talk:Vanitas|talk]]) 15:43, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
::I don't understand why you're saying he would collect Vanitas from LoD.
::"The journal in III also notes that Terra-Xehanort has Master Xehanort's heart" -- Not sure where you're getting that, but the Ultimania explicitly says that he contains TX's heart from the past, implanted in Terra's body.
::"plus he does not know who Lingering Will is" -- honestly, I wasn't able to parse that as "what is your identity", I parsed it as "what kind of person are you". It's simply absurd if Nomura meant that to show that TX doesn't recognize LW -- they're wearing the same damn clothes, for starters, not to mention that Terra's heart would recognize it, he immediately understood who it was upon being born, even Xemnas recognized Aqua's armor, and KH3D showed that YX informed the other Xehanorts about what they missed.
::Plus, LW has literally been ''sitting there'' a few yards away from all the action for a decade, how the hell are you trying to tell me none of the Xehanorts ever noticed or detected him.
::To be fair, that scene is already a legendary mess, what with claiming that TX is the thirteenth when Nomura is already on record saying that TX was one of the twelve that showed up when they were inducting Sora.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 15:54, 19 June 2019 (UTC)

== Technically... ==
Why is the Organization called thirteen different Xehanorts? There's only five different versions of Xehanort in the Organization. The other eight are only vessels for his heart, who still have their original personalities. Did Nomura change his mind about the whole "clone" thing mid-production?
