Kingdom Hearts II (2005 Video Game)

David Gallagher: Riku

Quotes 

• Riku : What I said back there... about thinking I was better at stuff than you... To tell you the truth, Sora... I was jealous of you.

  Sora : What for?

  Riku : I wished I could live life the way you do. Just following my heart.

  Sora : Yeah, well, I've got my share of problems, too.

  Riku : Like what?

  Sora : Like... wanting to be like you.

  Riku : Well, there is one advantage to being me... Something you could never imitate.

  Sora : Really? What's that?

  Riku : Having you for a friend.

  Sora : Then I guess... I'm okay the way I am. I've got something you could never imitate too.

• Sora : [Falling to his knees]  Riku! It's Riku. Riku's here... I looked for you!

  Riku : C'mon, Sora. You've got to pull it together...

  Sora : I looked everywhere for you!

  Riku : ...I didn't want you to find me.

• Xemnas : Denizens of light, answer this: why do you hate the darkness?

  Mickey Mouse : Aw, we don't hate it. It's just kinda... scary. But the world's made of light AND darkness. You can't have one without the other, 'cause darkness is half of everything. Sorta makes ya wonder why we are scared of the dark...

  Riku : It's because of who's lurking inside it.

• Xemnas : You accept darkness, yet choose to live in the light. So why is it that you loathe us who teeter on the edge of nothing? We who were turned away by both light and dark - never given a choice?

  Riku : That's simple. It's because you mess up our worlds.

  Xemnas : That may be... however, what other choice might we have had?

  Sora : Just give it a rest! You're Nobodies! You don't even exist! You're not sad about anything!

  Xemnas : [laughs]  Very good. You don't miss a thing. I cannot feel... sorrow... No matter what misery befalls the worlds. No matter what you think, what you feel, or how you exist.

• Riku : [sadly]  How am I going to face everyone?

  Sora : Like this...

  [Sora makes a funny face and Riku laughs] 

• [last lines] 

  [as "Destiny Islands" plays] 

  Riku : Nothing's changed, huh?

  Sora : Nope. Nothing will.

  Riku : What s small world.

  Sora : But part of one that's much bigger.

  Riku : Yeah.

  Sora : Hey, Riku... what do you it was - -the door to the light?

  Riku : [indicates his heart]  This.

  Sora : This?

  Riku : Yeah. It's always closer than you think.

  Kairi : [running up with a message in a bottle]  Sora! Riku!

  Sora : Hey, what's up?

  Kairi : Look.

  Sora : From the King?

  [Sora opens the bottle and reads the message. "Hand in Hand" plays as he and his friends anticipate another mission. The scene fades out] 

• Xemnas : Heroes from the realm of light, I will not allow it to end this way - not yet. If light and darkness are eternal, surely we nothings are the same! Eternal!

  Riku : You're right. Light and darkness are eternal. Nothing probably goes forever, too. But, guess what Xemnas?

  Sora : That doesn't mean YOU'RE eternal!

  Xemnas : [laughs]  No more eternal than that radiance of yours...

• Riku : If the world is made of light and darkness... We'll be the darkness.

• Riku : At least the waves sound the same...

• Sora : I don't get it. Why's everybody been calling me Roxas?

  Riku : Because, Sora. Roxas is your Nobody.

  Sora : My... Nobody? But that's crazy, I never turned into a Heart... Oh, right.

• Riku : Xemnas was the one who found Roxas. He could use the Keyblade because he was your Nobody. That's why Xemnas brought him into the Organization. But Roxas betrayed him. After that, I fought him because I thought it'd help you wake up. I lost, but the next time we met, I made sure I was the stronger one.

• Riku : Nothing's changed, huh?

  Sora : Nope, nothing will.

  Riku : What a small world.

  Sora : But part of one that's much bigger.
