About this title

Synopsis

The pitiful Heartless crave for hearts. The rage of the Keyblade unleashes those hearts. Hearts gather in the darkness, and eventually create Kingdom Hearts; to create the sanctuary for those lost hearts, those are Kingdom Hearts. Roxas, without any memory regarding his past, has been accepted into the Organization XIII. The privilege of becoming a member of the Organization XIII comes the responsibility that each member upholds. However a question arises: "Why am I in the organization?" On top of the clock tower with the sunset in the horizon, the 14th member, a young girl, makes this question. Who is this young girl, and how does she fit into the plot? This is the revitalization of Kingdom Hearts; the new prequel that connects the puzzle pieces of the mysteries that still float about. This is Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days! (Source: MangaHelpers)

External profile
The youngest and newest member of the Organization, Roxas, was found in Twilight Town by Xemnas. He is also referred to as the "Key of Destiny". Roxas's original self is Sora. He is voiced by Jesse McCartney in the English version of Kingdom Hearts II and Koki Uchiyama in the Japanese version. When pre-release Kingdom Hearts II screenshots and video showed this character without an Organization coat, he was featured prominently, emphasizing his importance to the future game's plot. In battle, he uses the "Oathkeeper" and "Oblivion" Keyblades, which represent Sora's memories of Kairi and Riku, as well as the power of light. As a stronger Nobody, Roxas controls Samurai Nobodies. Roxas's backstory and his joining of Organization XIII itself will be explored in the upcoming Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, for the Nintendo DS. Roxas will be a playable character in the game. Unlike the other Organization members, Roxas lacks memories of his previous life, due to the short time Sora had spent as a Heartless. During Roxas's time in the Organization, he and Axel became friends, but Roxas leaves to find answers as to why he possesses the Keyblade. He is confronted by Riku, who defeats Roxas and takes him to DiZ. In Kingdom Hearts II, DiZ places Roxas in a virtual Twilight Town, leaving him without any memory of the Organization and with a fabricated identity to throw them off. While here Roxas begins seeing his other self's memories in dreams. Roxas lives an otherwise normal life in "Twilight Town" until Axel infiltrates it to save him. Despite Axel's attempts to stop him and Roxas gaining back his memories of the Organization, Roxas merges with Sora early in the game, which also causes some of Roxas's memories to influence Sora. Roxas appears twice more later in the game. The first is a battle with Sora, shown only as a cut scene and never fully explained. In Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, Sora's battle with Roxas is made playable, and a cut scene is added that shows Xemnas explaining that Axel's death triggered the reappearance of Roxas. Roxas appears once again with Naminé before Kairi enters the corridor of darkness back to Destiny Islands. He and Naminé imply that they will live on within Sora and Kairi as both a part of them and as individuals, as seen in the ending cinematic when they smile at each other through Sora and Kairi.

He is voiced by Quinton Flynn in English and by Keiji Fujiwara in Japanese. Axel wields red and silver weapons called chakrams, and utilizes the element of fire. He also controls the group of lesser Nobodies known as the Assassins. No voice actors have been added to this character.

Saïx (サイクス, Saikusu?) appears in Kingdom Hearts II and is known as the "Luna Diviner" (月に舞う魔人, Tsuki ni Mau Majin?, lit. "Demon Man Dancing in the Moon"). He has an X-shaped scar on his face and wields a claymore. He draws power from the moon and controls the Berserker Nobodies, who wield weapons like his own.[5] Saïx is voiced by Kirk Thornton in the English version of Kingdom Hearts II and Ginpei Sato in the Japanese version. Saïx first appeared in Kingdom Hearts II in Hollow Bastion. He appears again in Twilight Town after Sora defeats his Berserker Nobodies and warns Sora of Axel's intention of turning him into a Heartless. After Sora defeats the Heartless army at Hollow Bastion, Saïx appears and explains Sora's purpose in the Organization's plans and refuses Sora's request to meet Kairi, whom Saïx kidnapped. After Saïx summons a horde of Nobodies, Maleficent attempts to use her own Heartless to battle Saïx, but his Nobodies quickly dispatch them and overwhelm Maleficent. Later, at the World That Never Was, when Naminé helps Kairi escape, Saïx appears to deal with the two, but retreats when Riku arrives in the guise of Xehanort's Heartless. Once Kingdom Hearts neared completion, Xemnas gives him permission to destroy Sora and his friends. Despite appearing calm, Saïx shows his true nature when he fights Sora in the World That Never Was by absorbing the light from the Kingdom Hearts moon, which puts him in a berserk state where he wildly attacks with his claymore.[5] After Sora defeats him, he dies while pining for Kingdom Hearts to give him his heart.
