==Derek Stephen Prince's podcast?== | |||
Kingdom Hearts World apparently has an interview with Derek Stephen Prince, [http://kingdomheartsworld.net/podcast/StevePrinceInterview.mp3 you can listen to it here.] Make what you will of it.

That's cool. I'll have a listen to it tomorrow, but is there any neat information in the interview?--{{User:NinjaSheik/Sig}} 03:59, 11 July 2015 (UTC) | |||
{{TNE|time=12:20, 11 July 2015 (UTC)|text=Having listened to it, I can gather these: | |||
*When Prince recorded a lot of the stuff he was doing, HE RECORDED VEXEN'S VOICE IN A CAR. He recorded it in a laptop to a pre-amp, connected to a mic with a pop shelter, and that is basically the garage version. He also did a lot of audition stuff in his car. HE AUDITIONED FOR KINGDOM HEARTS THAT WAY. (They obviously wanted the best people to VA, and there were 887-odd VAs auditioning for Vexen -- he beat them all by simply recording in his car.) | |||
*When asked "Where did you draw inspiration for Vexen," he said a lot of Vexen is there for the Japanese version. The original VA wasn't high and mighty according to Prince, but rather had a calm and educated voice, but could be maniacal if he wanted to. Now the producers didn't want Vexen to have an accent -- they simply wanted Vexen to be American -- but Prince decided to throw in some (Tim Curry???) in there. Flamboyance was what he went for. | |||
*He ''did'' try Re:Chain of Memories and couldn't get into it. He couldn't get past the first world (Traverse Town)... | |||
*Even (whom he also voiced) didn't have as much an impact on him as Vexen did, to the point that Prince doesn't remember Even at all. He was only in recording Even's lines for an hour, as opposed to five hours per day on Vexen -- where he really got involved. He found Even "a little less flamboyant" and "not as intellectual". He, too, believes that the writers could have done more with the apprentices, but knows that the challenge faced by the writers is to focus on the Disney stuff, which the kids can most relate to. | |||
So that's what I gathered. | |||

{{NinjaSheik|text=Wow, that's interesting! And it seems like Kingdom Hearts World did an interview with Zexion's VA, too, Mr. Vincent Corazza, too. :D You know, some wikis put stuff like how VAs (or TV/movie actors) think about their characters and how they auditioned for it and stuff in their trivia sections. I think it'd be fun to mention stuff like that.}} | |||
{{TNE|time=22:14, 11 July 2015 (UTC)|happytext=That is the purpose of trivia after all. I think it'd be fun. | |||
I heard from the grapevine here on the wiki, several years ago, that of all the VAs, Quinton Flynn was the most approachable of all of them. If the podcast gets revived (and is done on UTC for once!), perhaps getting an interview with him might be fun?}} | |||
{{KrytenKoro|This would all be great info for a Development section.}} | |||
{{NinjaSheik|text=You know, you're right! :D The FFWiki does the same thing with their characters, and they have been listening to the interviews because I see them update the ''Type-0'' characters' creation/development sections! Also, Mr. Prince mentioned that, like, over 800 (???) people auditioned for Vexen! I need to go listen to the Zexion's interview tomorrow!}} | |||

Is there any confirmation that Vexen regains his heart after the final battle? The edit that put it on his page says that he no longer has yellow eyes during the end scene, but that has nothing to do with whether he is a Nobody or complete person. The yellow eyes were just signifying that they had a piece of Xehanort's heart in them; otherwise, the original Organization XIII would all have had yellow eyes from the start. So his green(edit) eyes now would just be a sign that he is no longer a vessel for Xehanort, which would make sense since Xehanort is officially gone now. Unless there was something I missed?

His eyes were green, not blue. [[User:CrinosWolf500|CrinosWolf500]] ([[User talk:CrinosWolf500|talk]]) 00:29, 20 February 2019 (UTC) | |||
:My mistake, fixed it. Question still stands, though [[User:Sirlionel13|Sirlionel13]] ([[User talk:Sirlionel13|talk]]) 00:45, 21 February 2019 (UTC) | |||
::Points in favour of being Even instead of Vexen in the ending: Saix faded away, and when Isa returned, he lacks ‘Nort’s signature yellow eyes or pointed ears (I think the implication is that it triggered some sort of “purge”). Xigbar didn’t fade like the others, and when he appears in the epilogue, he ''does'' have them. Then again, Xigbar’s situation is unique, so… ''[[User:Ultima Spark|<span style="color:#002395 ;">Ultima Spark</span>]]'' '''[[User talk:Ultima Spark|<span style="color:#007FFF ;">(talk)</span>]]''' [[File:Lofty Fantasy KH3D.png|17px]] 11:59, 21 February 2019 (UTC) | |||
