Votes for Ventus-Vanitas

 * 1) BADASS. 20:35, 24 June 2011 (EDT)

 * 3) More epic Keyblade. 11:42, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 4) For all of the reasons listed above.
 * 5) The plot surrounding Ventus-Vanitas was much more epic! - Eternal  Nothingness  XIII  22:08, 26 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 6) Ventus-Vanitas. though, to be honest, vanitas is cooler before they combine, the dark sora look was awesome. Random Enigma 12:17, 30 June 2011 (EDT)

Votes for Riku (Keyblade)

 * 1) Dark Riku is fun as hell to play as in Re:CoM, whereas Ventus-Vanitas is unplayable. 20:20, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) Riku > Ven -- 20:44, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 3) I'm gonna go with Chitalians reasoning-- 22:02, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 4) Supporting cronos: Riku>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Ven 12:29, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 5) Riku doesn't remind of what just might be one of the worst characters I've ever encountered in my entire gaming history. -- 20:17, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 6) In my opinion, most epic battle in all of Kingdom Hearts.-- Random! to a point!  00:28, 30 June 2011 (EDT)

Keyblade Graveyard
Umm guys, we're talking about Riku with the Keyblade of People's Hearts, not with the Soul Eater... 22:28, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
 * They're pretty much the same. If we don't want confusion, we shouldn't call him Dark Riku, call him Possessed Riku or something. 22:47, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
 * Err, no. One has the power to unlock hearts, the other does not. 23:11, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
 * Both use Dark Break, Dark Aura, and Dark Firaga, both use power from an external source (Keyblade Riku: Possessed by Ansem, Dark Mode: Riku's darkness tempered by Ansem), and they're identical. That's all the similarity I need. 23:28, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
 * Soul Eater and the Keyblade of People's Hearts are identical? Not really.23:33, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
 * I meant costume-wise. 23:37, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
 * They're both technically the same character just wielding a different Keyblade. The fight is against Riku (Keyblade) right? Soul Eater's a Keyblade. 12:35, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
 * Soul Eater is NOT a Keyblade. Way to the Dawn is. 13:15, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
 * I guess you haven't seen this extremely long-winded discussion. Here you go! Take your time. 13:20, 25 June 2011 (EDT)

Yo Doorsey! Don't be hating on Roxas man! 00:22, 26 June 2011 (EDT)
 * Riku doesn't remind my of one of the greatest characters I've encountered in my gaming history. 21:00, 29 June 2011 (EDT)
 * PS you forgot to sign, LightRoxas, and thanks for backing me up. Roxas was one of the greatest characters in the entire series! Sure he's emotional, but that's what makes him so awesome, we don't see Sora throwing fits of anger like a normal, real, actual person would if he found out he was being used. Sora seems to be the least emotional, completely unreal and paper-thin character while Roxas actually feels like a real person. 20:13, 29 June 2011 (EDT)
 * Agree 100%. 21:00, 29 June 2011 (EDT)
 * Couldn't agree less.-- Random! to a point!  00:30, 30 June 2011 (EDT)
