Was Aqua a mistake?

No Kairi was though

Birth By Sleep was a mistake.

By what metrics?

In terms of what the fans want? Absolutely not, they love Aqua.

In terms of the plot structure - maybe. The biggest issue with Aqua is that she replaces Kairi as the main heroine for seemingly no reason.

However, I have studied the ways of Nomura, and through careful analysis have realized he always intended Aqua to be the biggest takeaway from BBS - even back in the KH2FM days.

Without Aqua you have no living ties to BBS, and you have no character that can exist outside of the Sora Xehanort duology. If BBS had just Terra and Ventus, it'd just be yet another Sora clone and Xehanort clone fucking shit up.

Or in another sense - no Aqua, no KH3. She's KH3's Roxas, down to being playable in the prologue.

Once you realize that KH3 is Nomura's attempt at making Versus all becomes clear

HARNESS THE BURNING ANGER

>Was the hottest, best written character in the series a mistake?
Gee, I wonder.

>In terms of the plot structure - maybe. The biggest issue with Aqua is that she replaces Kairi as the main heroine for seemingly no reason.

Blame Nomura for that, not Aqua. In fact blame Nomura for making a bunch of Kairi clones and dropping them from the plot.

Like Namine wtf happened with her?

I always liked her English VA.
There's a nice 'girl next door' quality to it.

The only mistake will be her not getting RoD armor in BBS 0.2

>Exposed shoulders yet arms covered by sleeves.

WHY IS THIS MY FETISH!??!??!

Well she can't have her original armor back, that's Xemnas's now

You're a mistake

Aqua's great because she makes everyone who only played KH1 and KH2 confused

How did mansex get aqua's armor anyway

Kairi was never really the main heroine
She was the goal both riku and sora fought over in 1

>kairi clones and dropping them from the plot
ironic considering she actually IS a kairi clone

It was used to save Terranort, Mansex retrieved it from Radient Garden

When Terranort and Aqua were falling into Darkness, Aqua used her armor to send Terranort back to the Light. It's literally the thing she used to save him.

Aqua used her armor and Kb to save terra from getting pulled with her into the dark

Blue hair girls are never a mistake

Ahh okay, I need to play BBS again.

What is the room of sleep and room of awakening?
I know where they are but what's the purpose?

I'm not sure I understand what you're getting at. Is this early concept art for her armor or something? 'Cause I like how her finalized set turned out.

Helmless armored Aqua is amazing, right up there with standard spats Aqua.

Pretty sure its not in the game until the Final MIx version.
Could be wrong

Me too, then i watched arrow and now everytime i hear her talking, i picture willa holland when she is buying drugs on the 3rd season from that dealer

Final Mix was just Aqua wandering around in the realm of darkness I think

Namine? Yeah. Xion? Kind of.

Aqua? That's where things get weird. BBS prologue paints a clear parallel between Aqua and Kairi - but the BBS prologue is also deliberately misleading.

Kairi does inherit Aqua's keyblade - but inheritance turns out to be meaningless as Sora gets Terra's despite it being meant for Riku.

To go full Metal Gear - by magic and by fate Kairi and Aqua are linked, but by ideals the link is between Sora and Aqua. The advice she gives Sora is literally the plot of KH1.

Isn't Xion a Sora clone?

Is in the vanilla version, in the last episode. What you talk is the secret episode, witch is only aqua walking to Cinderella's castle.

Is keyblade inheritance even an actual thing?

Seems like keyblades just come out of nowhere and are specific to a person, you don't get someone else's.

Yes and no, if I recall correctly, she's a clone built from Sora's memories of Kairi

>replaces as the mh
Cant replace what never was, retard.
Kairi has been a plot device with few lines since KH1. Saïx put it proper: shes the fire that keeps Sora going, nothing more.

As for Aqua, Willa Holland is the real mistake. Boring, dull, totally uninterested. Her delivery of every line is devoid of any attention - to the point that shes indistinguishable from an automated voicemail.

As for Aqua the KH character, she's a fucken idiot who knows nothing and understands nothing. The funny thing about the BBS characters is that none of them stop to ask "why am I doing what I'm doing". Even KHDDD Sora - the most idiotic character in the series - stopped to think "well, fuck, my heart hurts let me catch up with all these familoar dream apparitions."

Aqua just does whatever she's told to do. She doesn't make any decisions for herself or her friends; she reacts instead of acts.

Namura is

Willa's a lot better in 2.8. If you play BBSFM you can see how much she's improved

Well considering that Ventus left his heart with Sora I think that affects him more than advice did.
Each of the BBS protags mirror the original three. Aqua and Kairi act as the glue keeping their trio's friendship alive. Kairi did this unintentionally in 1 of course but that's still what happened. I think this is evident by her attaining the mark of mastery. All three are striving to be keyblade masters but only aqua gets it. Terra now wants to surpass Aqua and become a master as well. Ven wants to stay together with his friends and he needs to become a Master like them to do so. Aqua is acting as the goal and glue in BBS. So on the surface she seems like she is more similar to Sora but she still mirrors Kairi more imo.

They house Ventus and Aqua respectively . Xehanort never lost his memory - he could potentially reanimatr Aqua's keyblade armor, and with Ven's body who knows what could happen. He could damage Sora thatbway, if he could reach Ven to begin with. Too bad only Aqua knows the trick behind the RoS

Willa improved, but yeah, it was rough for most of Birth by Sleep.

No she isn't. Still dull and uninterested; you're so vested in the series that you're mentally filling in Aqua's being depressed in the RoD for Willa's completely disconnected delivery. Long-held seriousness that edges on despair doesn't sound the same as monotony. Talk to any fucked up veteran of whatever miloary force.

Will literally doesn't give a shit about voice acting and it shows. Here's an interview of her stating as much:

kh13.com/forum/topic/33144-missing-interview-with-willa-holland/

TL;DR fuck Willa, we need someone who can express emotion.

>mfw reading all the plot in this thread
>mfw i have no face
what the fuck

Wrong. You THINK Terra wants to surpass Aqua but in reality he's asshurt that he wasnt named Master. Ven is literally a fucking child who wants to keep big sister and big brother at home; he doesnt give a fuck about being a Master. Stop playing your dumb fantasies and look at the events objectively.

None of the three ever think about each other aside from "damn let me find out where they are". The first moment they meet up, Aqua goes full retard and talks to the brooding asspain known as Terra about his fuck ups in other worlds, Terra responds with more sphincter splinter, and Ven takes his side. The three split up and fuck off to their own ends until Xehanort forces the two boys back to the LoD. Events there force the three together for a mini keyblade war, and the rest is history.

Aqua is a janitor who occasionally broods to herself about her and Terra's relationship as Master and essentially Master.

Terra is an asspained young adult who fucks things up, recognizes that he fucks up, but never does anything to rectify or even think about his fuck ups.

And Ventus is a child.

Nothing to do with wanting to be friends with Aqua (except in Ven's case but he's still a baby suckling on mommy's teat essentially).

You seem upset.
Who hurt you?

is this a new screenshot of bioshock infinite warfare 2 tm all rights reserved?

Butthurt samefag. Go be angry about your life somewhere else.

is the board for shitgames

Fuck off, Willa, and learn how to properly deliver lines. I know you can't take criticism since you're a special snowflake actress and all, but fuck off and work your vocal CHORDS for once. Try learning an instrument and play sharps and flats. Then translate that experience into vocal changes. Dumb, disinterested cunt.

>shortlinks what is obviously one person's replies
>LOL SAMEFAG XDD
Fuck off, Willa, and go back to the mic. Listen to how dry you are, then turn to someone who is truly expressive. Both you and (Alyson Stoner? As Xion) are fucking terrible VAs because you aren't connected with the medium at all. If you don't like it, fuck off and let someone else voice the character jesus christ.

Are you gonna be okay, bro? Should we arrange a safespace for you?

>this blatant asshurt
Willa, stop browsing this board and go back to the studio. You're terrible at your job.

Calm down man...

Azura is

I still don't get why you're so angry at Willa. I think she did a good enough job. Why you think that I would be on a Kongolese Henna discussion forum at the same time as you is a little crazy.

You seriously need to calm down amigo
being this angry is gonna give you an ulcer
