Spoilery Rant
As you know, Kairi... well, like I said before she deserved better. But what about the other girls? Aqua felt nerfed compared to her other incarnations. When the whole group had their 1st final battle... Gosh! They did nothing! Just stand there hopelessly. Naminé? Doesn't appear until the ending cutscene! (Yeah, I know she had a small role in the Final Word, but she was just one of so many stars. I think Xion was the most rewarded girl, which is good for her fans, yet kinda unfair to the female crew. Especially Kairi and Naminé, who had a larger role in KH overall.
Some may agree, others disagree, but this game was... a bit lacking to me. Like Utada said, "what a bittersweet". Let's just hope they get something nice in the secret ending/epilogue
