Have you ever thought of this?

Death hasn't really been too prominent in the series. I would never have meant death. Know this about me now. I'm not one of those newbs who confuse death for becoming a heartless.

Luckily it seems that Axel did become whole after fading.

when did axel become whole?

this actually makes perfect snese to me, much like how the rain cycle works in the real world.

how could i not read what i qouted?
anyway, a nobody becomes whole when they join with their "other". When they fade they become nothing, as axel said to sora after defeating vexen "we dont die, we're nobodies, now he's just nothing instead of nobody" i dont know if that line is in the game but its in the manga

You're right, Axel did fade, because it was never confirmed that Axel's heart was found.

That came from CoM the game. Well Axel said "Now you can be nothing instead of nobody."

But anyway, even though it's not confirmed, that's how. Otherwise he wouldn't have been able to become whole again.

It's been semi-confirmed, with the interview with Nomura that says a Nobody becomes whole if their Heartless was destroyed before they fade, causing the heart, body, and soul to unite. And apparently in one of the KH2 novels, Namine confirms that this is what happened to Axel after he faded.

Hmm. I wonder if his heartless was a boss in KH1? Were there any heartless that had power over fire?

That could be how the new character(s) are "related" like Nomura said!

[Keyblade Spirit]

That's kind of what I was thinking. Ven's heart reformed, and was placed into Sora. Roxas looks like Ven because he is the Nobody of the person that Ven's heart went... actually, that makes less sense now that I think about it.

your really pissing me off with this non-sense.
for once i think people who are nobodys were once great people!
like ven and others who take a form as roxas and more
like someone whole that died and was great in the past.
but idk my theory AGAIN.
