Akashic Record



The Akashic Record (アカシックレコード) is a shield for Goofy in Kingdom Hearts II, named after the theosophical concept of the same name. It resembles a large book with a Heartless symbol on the cover. It is dropped 1% of the time after defeating a Bookmaster.

An improved version, Akashic Record+ is available in Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, and, similar to the original, is dropped by Runemasters only 1% of the time.

The easiest way to obtain this weapon is to put on a Lucky Ring and use Sweet Memories for Sora, Genji Shield for Goofy and Meteor Staff for Donald. Now, fight as many Bookmasters as possible to increase the drop rate for the Akashic Record.

Design
The Akashic Record is a square shield that is virtually identical to the books held by Bookmaster Heartless. The front and back covers have a brown border, while most of the rest of the book is dark purple. Each of the front cover's corners is decorated by a small, silver claw pointing inward. There is a Heartless emblem placed dead-center on the front cover. The pages of the book, visible on the sides, are tan.

In Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, the weapon is a palette swap of the Kingdom Hearts II version, but is otherwise identical. The once-brown border is now violet, the claws are black, and the rest of the cover grey. The pages of this version are silver.

The Akashic Record+ is yet another palette swap of the shield. In this version, the border is black and the covers are dark grey, separated from the border by a thin, pale yellow outline. The claws are red and the pages are tan like in the original Kingdom Hearts II version. The Heartless emblem is mostly unchanged, except for a thin, white outline that is gains in this version.
