Does Roxas seem more mature than Sora in KhII

[Finale]

Kingdom Hearts II

You see Roxas's 6 days and when sora gets out of the sleeping pod, doesn't Roxas look more mature than me.

whats your opinions?

[Cariad]

Hmm. It depends what you mean by mature. Physically or mentally?
I wouldn't say he was any more physcially mature than Sora but I do think mentally Roxas is in a league of his own xD Sora is so immature in KH2, its frustrating. Yes, the emo kid is the most mature. x3

[Sonic the Hedgehog]

He is more mature than Sora,he is serious,but Roxas has a funny side also.Only to his friends.

[*TwilightNight*]

Yes, I do believe Roxas is more mature than Sora. It's obvious in how he handle things, questions, and seems to have more common sense. He picks up on things, and tries to find answers, and while furious or challenged he may Keyblade the hell out of you, I would think he can gain a sense of more control and patience. For example, Roxas would not have gone and stupidly blabbed and insulted Demyx with such lack of tact. Of course, I would say his pent up anger and emotions, let's just say, or "emoness" when in TT was rather out there, but you also have to take in the fact of what he was going through. People he doesn't know appearing out of nowhere claiming they know him, weird vortexes, sudden pauses when his friends walk, experiencing odd things and creatures, etc. More so in the end, where he lost everything.

In 358/2 Days, I feel like he's even more mature, just by his quotes, words, and complete demeanor, yet at the same time, kind and cheerful. I believe his "emo" would show up once in a while as proven, more like sadness this time, and I think we may find the real, sane Roxas.

Bascially, I love the kid ^.-.

[Repliku]

I actually felt that Roxas had the same level of maturity as Sora. Being more serious doesn't mean he's more mature. He showed strong traits of selfishness, stubbornness, forsaking friends, putting aside things for his own personal agendas etc. He also was not so perceptive when it came to other people's feelings.

Sora shows immaturity in the way that he is ignorant to that which is going on around him because he follows his heart more. He isn't the smartest person but he does try to get along with nearly anyone he can. He isn't what I'd call book smart but even though he's naive and his perception can hurt the soul, he is someone that reaches out to others.

So to me, though both were different in some ways, I can't see either as being more mature than the other. They both had shortcomings that reveal their ages rather clearly and both at times act well under their ages, lacking commonsense and logic to figure out some basic answers. The difference is that one is more self-absorbed so he doesn't see the world around him clearly and will even mislabel friends while the other is less self-conscious and so doesn't perceive things unless it's something to do with the heart. So many people assume because Roxas is more 'serious' and self-centered that he's more mature. I just don't see it. I think they were both on par, just that they both came from different points of view.

[Sorcerer_Jenkins]

its bash KH day. you don't play Roxas enough to percive that! :bounce:
Sora yes. Roxas no.

Well maybe it's because Sora was wearing his KH1 clothes and in KH1 he looked like a kid :/ But anyway I think Roxas does anyway

[NeoJecht]

Roxas is clearly more mature than sora .................he is also clearly smarter than sora cause lets get this out of the way now repeat after me
"Sora is an idiot"

[Phantom Sora]

Wow Sora will never grow mature.
Roxas waaaayyy more maturer.

[Hopefulwishes]

Wow, that was deep. :O
...Yes, I belive Roxas is more mature than Sora. (But he does seem shorter.)

[Dredica]

Roxas is way more mature than Sora, but that might be because he's a nobody...

[007]

In Organization XIII? Definitely. When he remembers everything? Definitely. When he's with his friends? About the same.

[Vivi's Dark Side]

no xD, he spends the game *****ing about doing homework and getting money to spend time with friends, and his response to riku's question is memorably "Shut up!" such a kiddy remark.

[Skylight_Defect]

When he's around Hayner, Olette, and Pence, I think Roxas acts about the same as Sora.
When he's in Organization XIII, he's a lot more mature than Sora.

[RusinaRange]

roxas is more mature but it could be because of the company sora is in... if he wouldn't have any friends or the ones roxas has he would be more mature:) but hey how could sora not have friends his just so great personality:):):)

[zexykupo]

Roxas is more mature than Sora will ever be.

[RusinaRange]

yes that is true but its kinda weird isn't it that roxas differs so much from sora cause he is hes nobody...

[zexykupo]

yes that is true but its kinda weird isn't it that roxas differs so much from sora cause he is hes nobody...
I think they have their own personalities, but also something same in them...

[RusinaRange]

Yes they share common things but they are still so very different.. So alike so different...

[curse_tail]

:guiltygearXpc37: at the beginning roxas is serious and has no time to goof off sora just doesn`t take saving the world seriously

[RusinaRange]

:guiltygearXpc37: at the beginning roxas is serious and has no time to goof off sora just doesn`t take saving the world seriously

i don't agree with that i think that sora takes saving the world seriously but he just has some fun on the way... doesn't have to be serious all the time:):):)

[Mehgahtraun]

He is alot maturer, but he is VERY depressing. Just listening to him in 358/2 Days, he is an emo at heart. Trust me when I say Ven is no better.

[RusinaRange]

Roxas emo at heart thats an interesting thought... i guess youre guite right he does seem like a emo but still :lol::):)

[Redeyesblackdragon]

Emo! Right I dont think he is even close to that. He is more mature.

[mikeyv93]

[RusinaRange]

Yeah sora wouldn't be sora and roxas wouldn't be roxas if sora would be the mature one and roxas the one having fun and stuff...

[Random Angel]

Isn't talking about your post count off topic? (You did mention that the other people were off topic yourself...)


Back on topic:

Yes he did seem very mature. He tried his best to make up for his mistakes, a sign of maturity.

youre absolutely right on both offtopic and ontopic but it was a kind off an sidenote... but yeah it was offtopic so is this too so we all should just stop speaking offtopic...

but where did he try to make up on his mistakes???

[Sion]

but where did he try to make up on his mistakes???

I think being in the Organization counts as a mistake. If Roxas hadn't of made the choice, Sora would either still be in his sleep, or possibly just dead. Since his heart might have caved in without him.

Speaking of which, they never did explain exactly what Roxas had that could make Sora...well, become awake again, did they? Or should I just keep my stupid questions to myself and go re-play Kingdom Hearts II to find out? xD

i don't think he was trying to repay his depth he was more likely finding out why he had the keyblade and whos nobody he was... i bet the organisation had been confusing him too like everybody...:)

[{feel.the.wrath}]

In my opinion, Roxas is a little more mature than Sora in KH2. But I think that's mostly because he has so much on his mind in such a short time. There's the whole Axel thing, him being a nobody and having no heart, not to mention summer ending soon. He dealt with all of that in 6 days. Sora had pretty much the same amount to deal with, or a little more, but his problems were spread out over time.

I don't know how to explain it so it makes sense. xD But, to sum it up, I think Roxas is a little more mature than Sora.

that makes perfect sense to me and i think that you are correct but still sora is more inmature cause hes all the time kidding and stuff but thats probaply because Roxas is a nobody so he doesn't have feelings and cause he hangs with people who don't have hearts they can't have fun too so thats why i think:)

[Finale]

maybe...it's because he hasn't got heart...see it like this, sora can get distracted by fear, happiness, sadness and the rest, Roxas can't he don't have any direct emotions.

[RusinaRange]

its a weird thing that roxas does seem more mature and its almost like he has emotions... and when roxas had said that nobody would miss him then axel said that he would and he really did and for an other example when roxas was going to be disappear he was angry...

[Friendly_Heartless]

Well yeah. Roxas was confused on what was going on around him, so the events that were happening around him made him more mature. Since Sora was stuck in the pod for about a year, he's still going to act like the age he was when he first stepped into it if you think about it. Since Sora doesn't remember what happened in Castle Oblivion.

yes you are right but it still doesn't explain nobodys having feelings i guess..

[Finale]

yes you are right but it still doesn't explain nobodys having feelings i guess..

They don't
Roxas and Axel is different, there normal selves have there hearts back so they may be able to distantly feel emotions, however the others can't feel a thing.

[SoraxGarnet]

I believe Roxas had more of a Dark Character..he was the Dark Side of Sora
is what i like to describe Roxas as
He wasent emo ro anything..quiet shy confused and yet he could be happy
i liked roxas alot
hes more of the Quiet side of sora
since sora isnt shy and very loud lmao

[Ventez]

I believe that Roxas is both more physically and mentally mature than Sora. Sora's pretty much a kid in a teennager's body. Lol. :P

[RusinaRange]

well ofcourse he does because he was sleeping in that pod so he grew phsically not mentally..

[Soraoscuro]

well ofcourse he does because he was sleeping in that pod so he grew phsically not mentally..

Sora is completely a kid (mentally), he just get "serious" on certain moments... Still... Roxas i a lot more mature than Sora, not because he has no feelings, because he DOES have feelings, like Axel does as well, probably Roxas can feel because he's connected to Sora's heart.

[Xioayugoth]

I have a novel for you guys to plough through XD

I think they are physically at the same amount of maturity, since they have identical heights and build and the like...

Mentally, however... I think you need to bear in mind that Sora grew up on an island, unable to see much other than what was already there. He knew no darkness, no danger, up until the very end of his time on the islands, so when he was thrown into the whole heartless fiasco, everything was totally new and amazing to him.
And, of course, after finally growing up a little, he walks into Castle Oblivion and loses his memories. Evidently, his time with Namine changes him, making him maturer and able to make a serious life changing descision of his own; whether to remember his true memories, or to remember Namine's fake ones, and Namine herself.
If you think about it, he never would have been able to make that choice for himself in KH1.
And, because of that choice, he loses his new memories, and therefore his newfound maturity, and goes to sleep.
So, Sora at fifteen years old, waking up, still hasn't mentally matured one bit since the end of KH1. XP Although he seems to feel a boundless need to become the Oprah of Kingdom Hearts, helping every bleedin' Disney character with their relationship/life problems. It doesn't help he only has Donald and Goofy for his main company most of the time, and neither are very mature, except Goofy at times.

Because he was asleep for, like, a year, Sora had very little happening to him in a long period of time.
Roxas, the poor guy, had everything happening to him all at once.

He's perfectly happy, believing he's lived in a quiet little town all his life, when weird creatures start popping up and trying to kidnap him, a redhead he can't recollect keeps insisting that they are best friends all the time, attacking him when he refuses to believe him. His friends are freezing up half the time, the world keeps shifting around, and Namine keeps appearing to him.
Not to mention he keeps dreaming he's a whole other person, fighting with the same weapon...
I'd be a bit quieter if all that was constantly running through my head. XD
When Roxas was in Twilight Town, he had a constant nagging worry of "Who AM I? Who's this Sora guy?" However, when his memories returned, he seemed a lot brasher; attacking thngs just because he thinks "he had nothing to begin with". The Roxas we see on Day One would not be the one screaming in rage on Day Six, would he?
Roxas, while in the Organisation, was actually a lot less mature than when his memories were faked. He ran away, he betrayed the Organisation, for his own selfish need, intent on running and killing until he find out why the keyblade chose him. He acts a heck of a lot like Sora in the KHIIFM battle with Riku, as he retaliates just like Sora, and became angered when Riku started saying stuff about DiZ being right about Roxas being "HIS" Nobody (Sora's). Like Sora, he acts on his own instinct, as he can't take his heart's path, since he presumably doesn't have one.

Roxas, however, does show maturity even before being kidnapped and forced in a dream. Unlike Sora, he isn't naiive, and doesn't trust anywhere near as easily. He isn't fooled by simple traps (like Sora was at the start of CoM) and gives a lot of thought to things that matter to him. Simply put, Roxas looks before he leaps, right up until the dreams get too much for him, and he goes runaway on everyone's ass. Sora develops a lot during KH2, but only really at the very last moment; since throwing himself at Riku, sobbing his heart out when he was ASLEEP for most of the time they were seperated wasn't really mature, was it? Even at the end of the game, he still hasn't quite caught up to Roxas, simply because he didn't really have the chance to, because he wasn't actually CONCIOUS for quite a period of his life.

[Dandersnuff]

Well, Roxas had been experiencing weird stuff lately, and Naminé telling him he wasn't supposed to exist...
He must've felt pretty down. Can't blame him for seeming more mature next to Sora who is carefree and happy.

. . .

Skittles.
And I bet no one will ever bother to read that. T_T
Oh, well. Taste the rainbow.

Kingdom Hearts II

You see Roxas's 6 days and when sora gets out of the sleeping pod, doesn't Roxas look more mature than me.

whats your opinions?

To me...

Roxas was a cry-baby, I mea, he was upset for getting the keyblade... super cool powers... wierd

and we all know Sora's case....

So I can't tell.

[Magick]

Roxas was way more mature then Sora. I think half the reason is he has been through more of the darker stuff in life, while Sora hasn't.

[kaseykockroach]

EVERYONE was more mature than KH2 Sora. :P
That's not saying a lot, of course.

[Naxius Inverse]

i just hes more darker than sora is.
