The meaning behind the" Key."

[Shadowheart88]

What does the Keyblade symbolize to you?

The game had got heart, and that's not just a bad pun!

I think that the inside concept behind it is powerful. Think about it? What IS the Keyblade?

I feel that it's really the "Key" to your Destiny, hence the Destiny Islands.

I feel that it is the "Key" to your past, hence the idea of "Once we leave here, we may never be able to return."

I feel that it is also the "Key" to your heart, as all of the people whom Sora really loves gives him Keychains to add to the blade.

Tell me, what do you FEEL that the Keyblade really represents?

[captzakksparrow]

the key to unlock the doors, that close us off from the ones we love

[RikusGaurdian]

The key to unlock the back door.

Also, to Sora's room. :D

[madammina]

The Key to unlock the doors to everyone and everything. Where we need to go, who we need to remember, that lets us go there through the necessary doors.

Okay, very metaphysical

I guess the meaning for the key would be to open ur mind, don't be close minded and follow other around u just to fit in. We have r own story or destiny and ur will power (the power of ur heart) is the key to reach ur goals.

Somthing like that i think the kh story i trying to tell us so i relate this to the meaning of the key.

The keyblade's meaning is to lock and unlock, that means future, goals, love, rights, wills, etc.

[Blaze]

Maybe it's a metaphor to 'unlock your potential', or something like that?

[kaito kid kalik]

i think it's to close off the things that harm you, and to open the things that you love. Hence, everyone who has come in contact with a keyblade has their life changed and their true intentions shown.

Sorry i was laughing so hard at canito_q's avatar that i almost forgot what the topic was.

I think that the keyblade represents the power of the heart made real.

[Endless Reason]

Yeah, I always have a laugh when I see it too

Well pretty much everything I think you said in your post anyway...

The key to our destinies, to our past, present and future, to the ones we love, to lock away the darkness within... It is a very deep meaning, nt just simply "a key that does shit and kills stuff"

[Bh325]

It seems to me that it symbolises opening the doors that lead you to what you'll become. That you need to make decisions of leaving and "locking" something to achieve or "unlock" your future. And at the same time it means leaving something to "unlock" something and getting out your full potential. Maybe. Possibly. This is a hard topic.

Ditto ^^; My personal fave is the one with "Have Tea With Demnyx". Forgot who had it tho.

By what the game has showed us, it can lock/unlock pretty much anything. It's lock/unlocked whole worlds, passages, people's hearts, memories, any door, any chest, any lock, etc. etc. etc.

But I've always thought of it as an unusual weapon. I mean, hey, its memorable. Most heroes run around with a sword or magical wand, how many uses a key as a weapon? Not very effective guys....
