KH Character's Report, Vol. 1 (Roxas, Riku)

Disclaimer: The Kingdom Hearts Character's Report [sic] belongs to Square-Enix, Disney Publishing Worldwide, Nomura Tetsuya, and other assorted persons of great renown. This translation authored by [info]kay_willow and [info]libekory. Please do not reproduce without permission of the translators.

We do indeed intend to scan and translate the entire book; from minor to major characters, probably a few at a time, like this. So far the major characters have all gotten four pages of coverage, mostly summary of their actions over the course of the games (the Character's Report covers KH1, KH:CoM, and KH2), with a dash of extra canon insight and a nifty page on their relationships with other characters.

For once, we are providing scans. This is extremely, extremely unlikely to ever come out in English, so we figured, what the hey.

  • Click on the smaller image to view the full-sized one.
  • Quote translations are provided below scans and only where (in our humble opinions) there is significant difference between the literal Japanese and the official English translation.


ROXAS


Quote: "Why did the keyblade choose me? THAT'S what I want to know."








RIKU


Quote: "No one can stop him when his heart is set."


Quote (middle): "I have the power of darkness; do you wanna die?"

*ohhh it's a big heart*

It's a loverly book, but there's no new art in it or anything. :\ (Except for one tiny sketch at the back. We'll scan that later.) Maybe in the other character files. X3

Marry me!

Anyway, I am wondering about using the scans on another site (or I could just link to here)for a discussion on KH relationships but I don't want to do it without your permission.

We'd prefer it if you'd link directly to the LJ entry from your discussion instead of linking to the pictures -- but we always encourage informed discourse on KH! X3 So go for it and enjoy.

I'll need some time to think over the marriage thing. D: It's so sudden! *blush*

Thank you so much for taking the time to scan (and translate!) this.

You are both sweethearts, and I wish I could do something for you in return :). I'm a gen writer, so if you want a drabble or something like that, feel free to ask ^^.

Anyway, this looks pretty interesting and I'll love to read it as soon as I finish with my reports.

Wow~! Thank you ever so much for this translation; Riku's character profile shed quite a bit of light on his thoughts and personality. :D

Ah, and Kay...That Aerith icon! D: It's so pretty~! Did you make it, by chance? :3 If you did...Do you have the original art? XD I'm such an art hoarder. XP

It is very pretty! Sadly I didn't make it, it was made by [info]nabreus -- I believe it's from the KH manga.

So glad that you enjoyed! We're looking forward to getting another pair of profiles out in the next week or so.
