Kingdom Hearts Challenge Day 2: Favorite Character

Roxas

Roxas went through a quest of self discovery and had to make some difficult decisions to finally understand who he was and what he was capable of. I could relate to the isolation he felt from everyone else, always questioning everything and trying to find somewhere he belonged. He approached his situation in a way I recognized, and I found that it was easier to sympathize with him than with Sora.  His personality was so different from everyone he knew, the organization and his friends in twilight town. He always felt distanced from them, and when he finally decides who he wants to be, he doesn't look back and faces the challenge head on. In many ways, I feel like Roxas is the emotional hero of Kingdom Hearts. His persistence and kindness kept him going when everything fell apart, and he accepted the fate he chose in order to finally learn who he was. This is a powerful story, and I learned a lot from his story.
