![]() ![]() Jerkass: When he was first created he basically acts exactly how Riku did when he was evil and mocks the original Riku for fearing his darkness a fact that Riku doesn't appreciate.The Japanese version takes it a bit farther with the Riku Replica telling Riku that he's "leaving (Naminé) to you." A Call-Back to the first game when Riku tells Sora "I leave Kairi to you." note This line became "Take care of her" in the English version But this is unfortunately Lost in Translation.I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: Instead of using the empty replica body to save himself, he tells Riku to use it to give Naminé a body instead.However, this is justified by the fact that Vexen doesn't really understand hearts, not having one himself, and by the fact that Larxene manipulates him into it the entire time.
