More fun MoM facts!
There are many instances of the MoM using tildes in his speech, particularly when he's joking/teasing. I'm disappointed that the localization did nothing to preserve them, since I feel like their frequent use was a hint to his identity. And it's cute.
Whether or not you believe that he has any connection to Jack from Agito XIII - although you should, because he does - it's something they have in common.
From the Final Fantasy Type-0 World Preview book:
The inflection he places on the words at the ends of his sentences with a tilde (~) demonstrates his “nonchalance.” He has incredible mental strength, shown in the way he maintains the same attitude no matter what type of opponent he faces.
They thought this information was important enough to add to the page about the character. It's his thing.
I've translated scenes from KHUX and FF Agito for comparison.

Even more fun facts!
Unless MoM's having a serious moment, he talks like an airheaded teenager, often ending sentences with the addition of し. Demyx does this a lot. It's not an odd thing to do unless it's a habit. There's nothing like this in English, but I guess the closest comparison I can think of would be like when someone has the habit of ending their sentences with the inflection of a question when it isn't necessary. (Like this? You know how it sounds when someone does this?? all the time??)
I found a blog where someone gave their own example:
This word is somewhat informal, and used less (if at all) in polite Japanese (敬語). Also, it doesn’t have a very intellectual image to it. For example, there is a Japanese TV celebrity by the name of Rola (ローラ) who frequently speaks with this expression and draws out the し sound. Although I think it is all an act, her character is very ditzy and seems like she has a two-digit IQ. So when you are using し, make sure to not overly draw out that sound, unless you're a young girl and want to project that sort of image. (:
What I'm saying is, the localization needs to make MoM sound younger and dumber.
Does Jack do this? Sometimes. It would make sense for him to talk like this, but he doesn't do it often. This one is a MoM & Demyx exclusive.

Fun MoM fact!
He says "yoroshiku" ("I'll leave this to you"/"Please take care of it") differently every time he says it and never says it correctly.

So, I have this theory that Xemnas found Demyx on Scala's beach...
Truly expecting Mickey to run into Demyx and then subsequently get bodied when he gets too close to figuring out who he is.
Tumblr media
Wouldn't be the first time something like that's happened.

I feel like I'm starting to get what Luxord's title "Gambler of Fate" is all about.
Brain wasn't the one the MoM had selected to receive the Book of Prophecies. Ava defiantly decided to give it to him because, as Brain put it, "she was betting on the possibility that the future it contained could be rewritten."
He wondered if the Book would change automatically to reflect their actions. So I wonder if that means that he kept messing around (read: time traveling) until he finally saw the last page change. Perhaps the "child of destiny" came from a new page. 👀

If I see MoMyx slander in the tag, I must reply.
I just read one of your other posts about how you're disappointed that the Lost Masters are going to be villains and how you think they would work better as anti-heroes. I have good news for you.
Tumblr media
Behold, your anti-heroes. (Have you seen this before? Hopefully I'm not going to be repeating stuff you've already heard...)
If you don't know who they are... This is half of Class Zero from Final Fantasy Type-0, formerly Agito XIII. They're a group of elite, specially trained cadets. They obey the orders of Arecia Al-Rashia, a mysterious magic scientist who they refer to as "Mother." Arecia is secretly the god of the world of Orience. (Orience means Daybreak.) She starts the war. When the war inevitably ends the world, she restarts the world and keeps the war going hundreds of millions of times. They are her pawns. They never find out that she's responsible for the war they're fighting, and they remain loyal to her forever, never understanding their role in everything even in the end. It seems like Arecia loves them, but she's a god, so her form of love is a bit incomprehensible to humans.
The "MoM" is obviously a play on "Mother." But his personality is clearly that of Jack. Jack hides all of his true feelings behind a fake smile, acting goofy all the time to distract the class from the horrors happening around them. But there are a couple times where he breaks character and says the truth. He loves Class Zero with his whole heart. Even if he believes that war is in mankind's nature and that there's nothing they can do to stop it, he wants to protect them. They're literally more important to him than the world - so his form of love is also a little twisted. I don't think Sora could understand someone who's lost hope in mankind like that.
Tumblr media
Jack and Demyx share the same JP voice actor. They're the same in all the ways that matter - silly, lazy, love music, etc. When you add the difference, you can see how easy it is for Demyx to be the MoM. (Technically, we already know that Demyx isn't JUST a silly little guy because of the whole "Silence, traitor" thing. There's more going on there.)
I'm sure there are multiple ways to interpret this evidence, but I feel pretty confident that it means that Demyx is the MoM one way or another.
Tumblr media
*opens my wallet to show you pictures of my son* Here's Nomura's original drawing of Jack from Agito XIII. You can see the resemblance.
They're ALL good characters. Play Type-0. It's so good. I'm going to do a video with a character analysis for all of them at some point.
Tumblr media
There's also this. It's the only way I know I'm not delulu. lol
I really hope that the Master of Masters isn't an already existing character. He's such an interesting character and I think that if they make him Demyx or Sora it'll kind of ruin him. We already have Luxu and Ventus as characters from the Land of Fairytales, we don't need Sora as well. Not to mention it would ruin Sora's character too! He's the main protagonist, we've seen his journey from start to end, he's a great character. If you turn around and say "now he's one of the main villains" that's really hard to pull off especially for someone as happy go lucky as Sora. Not to mention that the Master of Masters has done so many terrible things, so to make Sora and him the same character would be very out of character for Sora unless done right.
I've been talking a lot about if Sora's the master, so I want to touch on some of the other popular theories too. First off, Demyx. Honestly I think Demyx is a great character on his own, he's lazy, he's annoying, he just wants to sit around and play guitar. And maybe if he is the master it would make sense for why he just doesn't care, since he's just biding his time. But if he was Demyx it would overall be underwhelming because Demyx is just this weird guy with nothing super special about him. I'm putting my bets on Demyx being shown in Missing Link, since we know from a scene in kh3 that he does in fact have the ability to wield a keyblade. To me it's a lot more interesting if Demyx is just some guy.
Another theory I've seen floating around that I personally don't mind is that he's Yozora. The eye color and being in Quadratum is most of the evidence I've heard for it. But also to me it seems that the secret ending of 3 where Sora and Riku are both in Quadratum is happening at the same time, and Yozora and MoM are in very different places at the time so I don't know how accurate that actually is.
Personally I like the idea of MoM being "the light". From a scene in Re:Mind that I don't remember if it was in Dark Road or not, MoM says his name and the screen goes white. And since his goal is to defeat all the darkness, it would make sense that he himself is the light. I think that this would give him interesting interactions with Riku too, since Riku uses both the darkness and the light. It would also be interesting to have a villain using the light for bad, I think that would give many characters doubt about what they believe, since so many of them hate the darkness and what it brings.
Whoever the Master ends up being, I just want him to be entertaining. He's such an interesting character while also being funny as hell, and he's overall just fascinating to theorize about, especially in this current time between 3 and 4, since I doubt we'll see any of him in Missing Link.

Calling all Kairi fans! I have a question.
I started thinking about Ava, and I wondered if it's possible that she is/was inside Kairi's heart. I think it's a decent way to explain why Namine looks the way she does. It would be similar to how Roxas's appearance came from Ventus being in Sora's heart. Namine isn't Ava, of course, but I think that she might look like her.
The question is... Why/how could Ava have ended up in Kairi's heart?
I feel like someone else has probably thought about this already. Pls... I need to know...

Half-expecting Demyx to show up at the very end of Missing Link as a Drifter. Like, there's a time skip to when Xemnas was looking for new members and he just finds a soggy Demyx laying on the beach somewhere. tbh, that does strike me as the first place he would look for ancient wielders. It seems like something the Player would've told Xehanort about.
As we know, their numbers represent the order in which they were recruited. So, Demyx, number IX, was the first new member after the Radiant Garden lab crew + Lea and Isa. He was picked first. The first ancient wielder they found. It's sussy.
Thanks to the end of KHUX, we know that Larxene and Marluxia's powers as Nobodies were determined by their environment. (Larxene woke up in a thunder storm. Marluxia woke up in a bed of flowers.) So, how would Demyx get water powers? Probably from waking up near water, right?
Tumblr media
This is what we know about Drifters so far.
The Player's amnesia was so severe, they couldn't even remember their own name. If Demyx is a Drifter, the implications make me :))
Like... He's an ancient wielder? Who showed up from "another world"? Who doesn't even remember his own name? Haha, okay. 😏
The title of "Melody of Memory" (MoM) associates memories with music. Particularly, with recalling memories. Where Drifters are concerned, you could say that water represents the loss of memories. Demyx uses music to control water. It's a halfway decent metaphor.
At first, I wasn't sure what to think of the whole Drifter thing, but now I can't wait to find out more about them bc I think this could finally be the explanation for how you go from MoM to Demyx. There would still be a lot of questions, like... Did he go through a distortion willingly, knowing what would happen to him? Was it an accident? Wuh happun?
ftr, I don't think Luxord is a Drifter. (Because I still think he's Brain until further notice.)

I would love nothing more than for MoM to remind Sora of the time that he beat him to death with a giant metal key after he repeatedly tried to get him to NOT FIGHT HIM. "How could I be the bad guy here? I know what you're really like."

I haven't been keeping up with the deeper KH lore/cast, so i thought Luxu was the Master of Masters. I mean, he has the same casual speech patterns. But yesterday, i was rewatching a let's play, and i thought Demyx might actually match the Master of Masters' speech patterns much more. It'd be so funny if the Master of Masters finally took off his hood and it was Demyx!🤣
