Riku, technically, is part of the Final Fantasy franchise, so this seemed like the best place to put it (if any of my fellow mods think it should be in a different forum, don't hesitate to move it).

Well, why not get started? Here, we can discuss, as the title states, "everything about Riku". (Just to avoid confusion, I do mean the one from Kingdom Hearts - it's spelled differently from Rikku).

The club is open to anyone, but flaming towards him will not be tolerated and may result in warnings.

If any member wishes to join, just say why you want to join and I will enter your name on the members list.

Members should feel free to create banners, posters, sigs, GIF's or any other way of praising Riku in this thread.

Any member who has joined this club must agree not to use the name Riku in any RPG, including myself.

May i join this? Riku is technically a FF character and has so many cool qualities such as his constant struggle against his inner darkness.
 
I would love to join because I think that Riku is cooler than Sora. I'm an expert (well almost) in posting theories about KH 1 and KH2 and I have read all of the Ansem Reports and the Secret Ansem Reports. Here is an example of one of my theories. This one is about Sora's Anti-Form and I originally posted it on Blootix Revolution:

Ansem Reports:<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" /><o:p></o:p>
This is my theory based on hours of playing KH 1 and KH2 and by reading the Ansem Reports and the Secret Ansem reports (all of them). I called this theory the

"The Forgotten Reports".<o:p></o:p>

The "Forgotten" Reports:<o:p></o:p>

You remember the time in which Sora turned into a heartless?<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
By remembering this fact we can discover some theories about Sora's dark side. In fact, when Sora became a heartless he didn't lose control over his reason because he had a strong heart. The dark thirst that makes the heartless wanting to capture the hearts was not present in Sora when he was at a heartless state and his heart was slowly being consumed by this "dark" desire for hunting hearts. Sora was saved when Kairi restored his heart from the darkness. However, that doesn't mean that Sora's heart was fully recovered. You see, when Sora became a heartless he lost many things, including the power over the keyblade. His heart was recovered, but part of the "darkness" that was slowly consuming his heart remained in the deepest area within Sora's heart. It was the same situation that Riku suffered when he was possessed by Xehanort's Heartless, but in Sora's case, Sora was possesed in fact by the darkness that was triggered when he released his own heart using Evil Riku's Dark Keyblade.

The Anti-Form is only a manifestation of the darkness or that heartless "side" that is hidden deep inside Sora's heart. He becomes Anti-Form when uses too much the power of the "Drive Form" ability. You see, each time that Sora transforms into one of the basic drive forms (Valor, Wisdom, Master) his heart is weakened because he needs to use his energy alongside with the keyblade's power. The Valor form increases Sora's anger, the wisdom increases his mind's power but not in a proper manner and the master form increases Sora's pride and desire for power. These forms, however, are not so balanced because they depend on the amount of drive energy that is released by the heartless; let's say it's just "corrupted" energy. This energy is used without first being purified and thus resulting in an increase in the amount of darkness in Sora's heart. When he transforms into his most powerful form, the Final Form(obtained when Sora fights Roxas at the Memories Skyscraper in the World that Never Was), this "energy" is absorbed and transformed into a more purified state and thus resulting in a decrease of the darkness of Sora because Sora is now almost fully recovered. In this state, his mind is calmed, his anger is not uncontrolled and he is using most of the Keyblade's full potential, but not it’s fullest. Sora's destiny is like two sides of a coin. The first side was his original destiny that he obtained when he was chosen by the Keyblade in order to complete the prophecy of the hero that saved the world from the darkness. The other side was the result of his altered destiny that was triggered when he lost his heart and became a heartless. He recovered his heart but also he added a new destiny. This "other" destiny is the darker part of the keyblade’s stories, that spoke of a "corrupted" hero, which fell to its own darkness and thus bringing chaos and ruin to the known worlds.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
I'm not so certain about the facts on this theory because what I posted here was my own opinion based on the analysis of the Ansem Reports, The Secret Ansem Reports and the story of KH1 and KH2.

I can make a theory about what happened to Riku in the events between KH1 and Chain of Memories but you must give me sometime.
 
What happened to Riku between the end of KH and the beginning of CoM?

Well, after knowing that Riku stayed with the king at the end of KH 1 and that Riku woke up in a strange realm at the start of KH CoM we can conclude with the following theory.

After closing the door between realms, Kingdom Hearts, Riku and the king Mickey stayed figting on the realm of darkness against the countless heartless. Somehow, after the battle of Sora and Ansem the Seeker of Darkness, the essence of Xehanort's Heartless was able to cross to door to the realm of darkness. In the heat of battle, Xehanort's Heartless was able to possess the now weakened Riku and then he was able to find his way in deep inside Riku's heart. The King was fighting against the unending rmy of heartless and he somehow felt the presence of Xehanort's Heartless. After witnessing what was happening to his friend, King Mickey tried by all means to save Riku and they both crossed a portal between realms in order to get to a safer place. Mickey knew, however, that Xehanort's Heartless was trying to restore his own body using Riku again. So, the king, using the power of the keyblade, tried to seal the darkness in Riku's heart but unfortunetly he failed. As a result, Riku's memory was almost shattered and his body was left in a place between the realms of darkness and the realm of light. Mickey lost contact with Riku and he began searching for him. Riku woke up in a strange place with small fragments of his memory.





Out of the Theory: Can someone help me with this?

We already know in CoM, however, that Xehanort's Heartless was lurking in Riku's heart, hence the final battle in CoM.
