#While Xehanort pursues the X-Blade and Kingdom Hearts and gives up on forming relationships with others

Who are your top 3 favorite Kingdom Hearts characters, and if you want to give thoughts on why, what makes you like them?

@scalacaelumx Thank you for the ask!! My current top three favorites are 1. Ventus, 2. Terra, and 3. YX. (Sorry Aqua! I really love her too.)

Ven has been my favorite character since I became a KH fan. (So.. for the last 7 years! 💖) 

I love his “quiet but kind” personality, paired with his eagerness to make friends. Even though Birth by Sleep is a tragedy, there is still a heartwarming side to the story thanks to him. And I love him in UX too! His relationship with the other Union leaders is adorable.

He’s been though a lot so far, and we know there’s more to come, but Terra and Aqua (and Chirithy now!) are there at his side. I’m really looking forward to seeing them again.

Also, it makes me happy that he loves stargazing. (Me too, Ven! ✨)

Terra!! He wasn’t originally one of my favorites, but after rewatching BbS so many times he really grew on me. He’s so protective, and also a bit on the quiet side (most of the time, that is). Plus he’s a very gentle character around his friends, especially in KH3. It’s hard to say who my favorite character is design-wise, but the Lingering Will might take the cake. 

I never would’ve guessed he would make my “top 3”, but… then Dark Road happened! (I kinda blame the secret ending for being the tipping point—seeing tiny Xeha talk about the friends from his dreams!)

Honestly, Xehanort is such an interesting character.  I really love that he turned out to be empath, and the ‘Child of Destiny’ twist was such a surprise. As much as I love bright and cheery characters like Ven, I have a soft spot for somber characters like him too. 💔

He’s also become my go-to character to doodle; I actually have more drawings of him than any other character in my art albums. (So, he’s also a candidate for ‘favorite design’.)

#Thanks again! I love talking about my faves #I must be the only person who loves both Ven and Xehanort as favorite characters haha #It makes sense. To me. #They’re both lonely and looking for where they belong #but Ven finds that with his friends #While Xehanort pursues the X-Blade and Kingdom Hearts and gives up on forming relationships with others #Ventus #Terra #Xehanort
