The touching the sad and the anticlimactic

[maian]

I've said it once, and I'll say it again, it was a touching line that most people don't seem to be able to grasp. It's not supposed to be funny or stupid, it's Roxas in his most desperate hour. The ice cream moments are what defined their friendship, and in a moment where Roxas is losing his best friend, the only words he manages to articulate is a plea about the ice cream, something that, while trivial and even silly to most, was beautiful and amazing in their friendship. It's in that moment where you truly see how sad and desperate Roxas is. I think it only makes sense that he doesn't say something deep or meaningful, but that he blurts out what truly meant most to him about their friendship, simply enjoying laughing conversation on top of an ice cream tower. It's a powerful moment that says a lot about the true value of friendship, and I think it's unfortunate that most people overlook it as a stupid line that ruins the moment.

The English version kinda screwed it up. :I

Actually, I like the English version better. I mean it's still kinda cheesy (and there's always Axel) buuut telling her let's have ice cream again while she's dying is....okay I guess. It's...awkward. They shulda changed that whole line altogehter maybe...I dunno XD

Probably when that one cutscene was playing where Xion was disappearing while Axel and Roxas were joking around on the clock tower...

I actually liked the ice cream line. It wasn`t that important, but it probaly was to Roxas because the time eating ice cream on the clocktower was when he was with his two best friends, and Roxas knows that when Xion is gone those times will be over. That would be important to me. I love anytime when I`m with my best friend.

Ohhh so that's what it was.

Every time I rewatch the scene, I'm gonna pretend Roxas said that instead.

Same here Roxas XIII and Maian I do think it was touching just a little mood spoiling
