Not So Similar	comment	Two characters or groups initially appear to be quite similar, possibly so similar as to be practically interchangeable. But as the work develops, it becomes clear that the similarity is only superficial. Their deeper characteristics, such as motives, morals, or methods, are quite dissimilar. They may fill roughly the same role in the story, but they are far from interchangeable. If another character comments on the similarities, one or both of those being compared may respond along the lines of "What? I'm nothing like him!" before listing the differences. In terms of Logical Fallacies, this is often considered a false equivalence. This is not always a bad thing, however, as this can make two seemingly similar characters distinct enough that both can have their fans. Common cases include Clone Angst, Shadow Archetype, and Legacy Character. Compare Mirror Character and contrast Mirroring Factions. See also Our Monsters Are Different; and Divergent Character Evolution, if the subjects really were interchangeable at one point. Foil is when the differences are blatant, even with some similarities. Cast Speciation is a subtrope that applies only when the characters are part of a small cast of characters.

Not So Similar / int_12557dc4	comment	Code Geass: Paladins of Voltron: Mao accuses Lelouch of being no different from Zarkon and Charles. However, we later see that several factors separate Lelouch from the pair. Zarkon: Unlike his predecessor as the Black Paladin, Lelouch has his fellow Paladins and Nunnally acting as a Morality Chain. Additionally, Lelouch views the Black Knights as True Companions, where Zarkon would have only relied on them for as long as they could fight for him, then abandoned them. Princess Allura later says that the only common traits the two share are the noble qualities Zarkon had before he betrayed his comrades. Charles: Unlike his father, Lelouch has the emotional maturity to accept when a plan will not work, and can swallow his pride and do something he dislikes for the sake of others. Even try to ally with his detested father against the Galra. Sadly, this doesn't work out, as Charles allies with Zarkon, allowing Galra to conquer Earth just so Charles doesn't have to abandon the Ragnarok Connection.

It is demonstrated in a heated debate between a mildly anarchist man who views all establishments as oppressive and wasteful, saying organized religion is the worst offender, and a fiercely religious man who believes socialism owes its very existence to the teachings of Jesus Christ, who aimed to disrupt the wealthy and raise up the oppressed, so therefore Socialists should be using The Bible to promote themselves.

The two are relatively rational and willing to seek the truth, but their actions at the climax of the game are very different. After the killer burns Taiko's best friend Kotoba to death(or leaves him in critical condition if the right choices are made), a furious Taiko will become adamant that Kamen is the culprit. Raiko, however, believes in Kamen's innocence despite disliking Kamen. This is lampshaded in the bad ending, in which if Raiko admits that Kamen is the killer, Taiko will be angry with her for defending a criminal and bitterly remark that he thought they were the same.

His brother is furious at this comparison, because unlike Sein, who unnecessarily resigned himself to unfulfillment and regret in a sacrifice he was never asked to do, his brother never regretted his lot in life and did what he did out of a selfless desire to raise his brother in the best environment for him.

Not So Similar / int_32c541e6	comment	Fullmetal Alchemist: In the first episode of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Isaac McDougal attempts to recruit Solf Kimblee, another State Alchemist who killed his superiors and apparently defected. However, while both are defectors from the military and use their alchemy to attack opponents from within (freezing and exploding, respectively), McDougal is a Defector from Decadence who wants to save Amestris from the Ancient Conspiracy, while Kimblee is an Ax-Crazy Straw Nihilist. In the manga, Brotherhood and the live-action film, Shou Tucker tries to pull the "Not So Different" Remark card on Ed in regards to how he used his own family to transmute chimeras, stating they both toyed with alchemy out of scientific curiosity and "messed around with someone's life." In reality, this is what they are; Ed and Al performed human transmutation in a misguided attempt to bring their beloved mother Back from the Dead, whereas Tucker turned his family into chimeras purely because he couldn't bear to lose a steady paycheck. Furthermore, while Tucker sacrificed his wife and daughter, the brothers were the ones who paid the price for their own mistake, and at the end of the series, Ed chooses not to restore his leg, keeping his automail leg as a reminder of what happened.

Not So Similar / int_35e05f2a	comment	RWBY: Ruby Rose Ruby and Ozpin. Discussed Trope. The heroes strongly disapprove of Ozpin not telling them the full truth about the Relic of Knowledge and Salem, leading to a falling out in Volume 6. In Volume 7, the heroes aren't sure if they can trust General Ironwood, so Ruby repeats the lies and obfuscation Ozpin used on them. When she admits to Qrow she doesn't know if she's done the right thing or if she's no better than Ozpin, he confidently tells her that Ozpin trusted no one while she's just waiting for Ironwood to earn her trust. Ruby is not convinced by this argument. It's ultimately subverted into being no different. Several of her companions express increasing levels of concern about her making decisions they disapproved of Ozpin making, and when they finally decide Ironwood has earned their trust, it ends up making things worse in the long run. In Volume 8, Yang turns on Ruby's leadership the way she turned on Ozpin's, and when the heroes later reconcile with Ozpin, they acknowledge that they now understand the position he was in much better. Ruby and Harriet. They're both high-speed combatants who are often the first to charge into battle. But while Ruby is sweet, bubbly, and values teamwork with her closest friends, Harriet is aloof, brutally honest, and fiercely competitive even with her teammates. Ruby heavily prefers to use Crescent Rose over hand-to-hand, while Harriet specializes in overwhelming her foes with her Power Fist. When Team RWBY and Ace-Ops fight at the end of Volume 7, Harriet and Ruby are pitted against each other; while Ruby is willing to interrupt her fight to help Weiss, Harriet won't do the same for Marrow and just chastises him for holding back. While Ruby is adamant about doing things with her team to bond, even when they don't feel like it, Harriet is the member of her team who is most aggressive in adhering to the Atlesian rule of teams being professional instead of family. Weiss Schnee and May. When May and Weiss argue about whether they should help Atlas or Mantle, Weiss finds herself wanting to help Atlas because of her blood ties. She is surprised that May doesn't seem to feel the same torn dilemma as her, given that they both come from elite Atlesian families from whom they're estranged. May explains that her desire to fight for Mantle's rights created bad blood between her and her family. When her family disowned her, they did so without acknowledging her trans identity, so she disowned them in turn. May therefore made her choice years ago and there is no dilemma for her. She's surprised Weiss has any dilemma given that Weiss's brother Whitley reminds her of her cousin Henry. However, shortly after this, Whitley proves May's comparison wrong much to Weiss's surprise and delight. The implication is that there is hope for Weiss to mend her family relationships whereas no such hope exists for May. Yang Xiao Long Yang and Raven. Discussed Trope. Taiyang tells Yang that, while he's proud to see something of Raven in Yang, he's relieved that he doesn't see all of Raven in her. He implies that he sees her strength of will as something she's inherited from Raven, but also suggests she needs to avoid her mother's mistake of bulldozing through problems instead of learning how to work around them. Taiyang doesn't actually detail most of Raven's flaws beyond admitting that they tore Team STRQ apart and caused a lot of emotional fall-out for their family; when Yang confronts Raven in Volume 5, she learns that her mother's biggest flaw is cowardice and that she has much greater courage than Raven does. Yang and Adam Taurus. They have both been Blake's mission partners, been permanently scarred by others, and share a Semblance that allows them to power up by converting attack energy. However, Yang is a thrill-seeker who learned to become a Huntress who protects the people, who has to tank physical damage to convert energy into strength, and who learned to rise above her scars. Adam absorbs energy through his sword and is a manipulative abuser who descended from being a Faunus rights activist into a monster obsessed with punishing humanity as a whole because some humans hurt him. When Blake compares the two after Team RWBY is disqualified from the Vytal tournament, she concludes Adam's "accidental" harming of others was a pattern while Yang's was a genuine, one-off accident. When the trio fight in Volume 6, Adam seeks to blame Blake for everything bad that's ever happened to him, while Yang refuses to let her take the blame for any of it and accuses Adam of lying to Blake about the kind of person he truly was, something Yang has never done. And all of this is the reason why in Volume 9 Blake and Yang enter a relationship. Nora and Elm. Like Nora, Elm favors a bludgeoning weapon that doubles as an explosive ranged weapon and is a Genki Girl. Unlike Nora, Elm's Genki Girl behavior appears to be genuine and she obeys Ironwood regardless of personal feelings, compared to Nora who uses her behavior as a mask to hide her insecurities and isn't afraid to call Ironwood out on his behavior. Gods of Light and Darkness. In the Remnant fairy tale, the Gods of Light and Darkness have a fundamental disagreement about how similar or different they truly are. Dark believes that he and Light are essentially the same because they both have creations and have challenged each other at different times to destroy each other's creations. Light disagrees, believing they only share similar powers and forms. Beyond that, they have nothing in common.

Not So Similar / int_3b34143f	comment	Harry Potter: Harry starts to find the similarities between him and Voldemort fairly early on; both are dark-haired, relatively popular guys who started out their years without parents and found Hogwarts to be their home. However, each circumstance is marred with differences; Voldemort was conceived through a loveless union. His mother, while sympathetic, still gave her son to an orphanage. Voldemort instigates much of the antagonism against people in his youth. Harry, on the other hand, had parents who loved each other, and his mother was brave enough to sacrifice herself against Voldemort to protect him. Dumbledore explains to him at the end of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets how even though they have similar abilities, they've made very different choices that have shown them to be very different people. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows establishes that the biggest difference of all is the fact that Voldemort fears death and Harry does not. Hence, while Voldemort fruitlessly searches for a way to escape the inevitable, Harry is not afraid to die and willingly goes to his death to ensure that Voldemort can die as well. This also applies to Harry and his deceased father, James. On the surface, they're somewhat alike — many adults who meet Harry comment that he looks like his father, and he seems to have inherited James' flying and Quidditch skills, as well as his loathing of Slytherin. Deep down, however, Harry is actually more like his (also deceased) mother, Lily. He inherited her compassion and forgiving nature, and (unlike James) he never acts like a bully. (It's worth noting that those same adults who say that Harry looks like his father then add that he has his mother's eyes, symbolizing that he has a similar heart as her.)

However, Varian gradually takes control of his temper and becomes a better leader over the course of Mists of Pandaria, while Garrosh becomes even more tyrannical, alienates the rest of the Horde and causes a civil war, making him the Final Boss of Mists of Pandaria.

In reality, the only things they share are their hair colour, their powers and their love for the same man, which becomes especially apparent when Kikyo gets resurrected for comparison. Kagome lampshades this, noting that even if she is Kikyo's reincarnation, the two of them are ultimately completely different people, and she especially can't stand being seen as a mere imitation of Kikyo rather than her own person. This is even a plot point; a small but important part of Inuyasha's Character Development is becoming able to look Kagome in the eye, which he initially has trouble doing due to her resemblance to Kikyo.

Jean-Luc and Vlad are both upper-class men who hit on married women and put on a charming act to hide their true unpleasant natures. However, there are some apparent differences between them: Jean-Luc makes his money legally through inheritance and a family business he runs, while Vlad used his powers to become the wealthiest man on the planet through criminal means in addition to his inheritance; Jean-Luc has been married multiple times and has two children, while Vlad is single and obsessed with having a family with one specific woman; Jean-Luc is content with using his wealth to live the good life, spending it on women and hanging out at the country club, while Vlad has spent decades of his life fixated on Maddie, and is only interested in using his wealth to get with her and make her son either his son or miserable; Jean-Luc can handle being rejected by a woman and has standards about saying no, as he seems to have taken Maddie's "hint" that she doesn't care for his flirtations, while Vlad can't get it through his head that Maddie hates him and is willing to do anything to make her his, including brainwashing. Ultimately, Jean-Luc, despite being unpleasant and apathetic, is an ordinary man who does not harm the people around him, while Vlad is a supervillain whoâ€™s willing to destroy anyone who gets in the way of what he wants.

While Mercury decides to move away from the past, Cinder maintains a vicelike grip on it. Mercury is laid-back and goes with the flow while acknowledging the world sucks and he can't change the path he is on. Cinder becomes obsessed with getting back at the world and attaining power to rise above the world that allowed her to be in pain.

In reality, this is what they are; Ed and Al performed human transmutation in a misguided attempt to bring their beloved mother Back from the Dead, whereas Tucker turned his family into chimeras purely because he couldn't bear to lose a steady paycheck. Furthermore, while Tucker sacrificed his wife and daughter, the brothers were the ones who paid the price for their own mistake, and at the end of the series, Ed chooses not to restore his leg, keeping his automail leg as a reminder of what happened.

Both the Set and the crew are made of wealthy criminals, many from noble backgrounds, who work to overthrow a corrupt government by raising armies, inciting chaos in the upper classes, and rallying the working class. Mr. Suit thinks that history glossed over their less savory deeds and will erase the Set's in turn but misses some key points. Wax points out that while the Elendel government is corrupt and exploits the working class, it's still a lot better than the Final Empire when bribes were expected and nobles could legally kill commoners. It's clear that Mr. Suit just wants power. Mr. Suit assumes that like him, the crew was in it for money and power when the truth is that while the crew was initially motivated by money, Kelsier handpicked each of them because he knew they'd stay to make a stable government instead of running. Kelsier did channel the dissatisfaction of commoners to overthrow the government, but unlike the Set, he wasn't the one who made things worse for them. The Set put tens of thousands of people out of work and attacked their religion, to make them angry at the establishment. The crew was made of True Companions, and Vin joined not because she believed in their cause, but because she wanted to see how thieves could trust each other. The Set killed one of its lower-ranking members are part of a Frame-Up.

Fabiola admits that the two have a lot in common; theyâ€™re both female gunslingers, they emerged from impoverished backgrounds, theyâ€™ve seen much of humanityâ€™s dark side, and theyâ€™re both very good at dishing out violence. At one point, Fabiola even gives a Slasher Smile much like Revy often does. Then, at the climax of â€œEl Baile De La Muerteâ€�, in their final conversation together, Fabiola reveals that the two of them are irrefutably different. Revy is a Straw Nihilist who believes that the only thing thatâ€™ll bring her results in life is violence, whereas Fabiola is an Anti-Nihilist who, while acknowledging that the world is genuinely fucked up and that sometimes violence is the answer, believes that violence isnâ€™t always the answer, and that following such a viewpoint only serves to fuck up the world even further. Revy denounces Fabiola as naive, as seeing the world as a flower garden, in black and white. Fabiola corrects her, saying that itâ€™s Revy who sees the world as such, as itâ€™s her only justification for living a life of constant bloodshed. Fabiola, by contrast, sees the world as gray, neither good nor evil.

To this, Anya has to spell it out to Emily that Sean is hardly comparable to her war-hero fiancÃ©. One is only unreachable by sleeping six feet under, and the other is unattainable by sleeping with his best friend's girlfriend.

Dani repeatedly shows compassion, love, and regret that Juan has long since discarded. This is shown when they disagree over how to handle Castillo's son Diego with Juan wanting to kill him and Dani wanting to protect them. Juan even assumes they're protecting Diego because they want the war to continue. It even shows up in their final conversation. Juan believing there will never be free elections in Yara because he's a misanthrope while Dani assumes he means because Castillo's men will try to stop them and must be defeated.

Not So Similar / int_84c51296	comment	In A Voice from the Dark, it's revealed that Linkara orchestrated the entire plot, and got them stuck in an Eldritch Abomination-infested mansion. The older contributors, especially the ones who took part in the siteâ€™s anniversary specials (Which, in a Broad Strokes sort of way, now seem to have also incorporated some of the behind-the-scenes Real Life abuse) compare Linkaraâ€™s actions to that of the people in charge of Channel Awesome, with Marzgurl saying they're no better. Considering they lied to their friends to get them all to Scarsdale Manor, which got them into yet another bizarre and life-threatening adventure in the first place, itâ€™s initially hard to argue. Bargain Boy, however, points out the biggest difference between them though: Linkara was legitimately trying to do something nice for everyone — getting old friends to meet up for the first time in years and meet new people, albeit going about it the wrong way thanks to Diamanda — while the anniversary specials were because of someone else's selfish reasons. And, as pointed out, he gave an actual apology.

However, it is implied that Zayne's being inept is due to his master having no interest in training a Padawan at all, and using Zayne's Force disability as an excuse to ignore and not seriously train him. Haazen's ineptness is due to being undisciplined and predictable in his actions, being unfocused and haphazard in his pursuits, and allowing his emotions to constantly get the better of him. Haazen took it for granted that he would succeed, expected Barrison's money and influence would get him into the Jedi Order. When it didn't, Haazen festered in bitterness for decades. While Zayne accepted his likely failure and did not resent his friends or hold it against them. Both become more skilled and powerful, but the difference is that Zayne refuses to turn to the Dark Side and let the tragedy that happened affect him, remaining true to himself, while Haazen embraces the Dark Side and lets his anger, bitterness, and ambition corrupt and twist him.

And while they're both kindly but ordinary people forced to shine in desperate situations, Komaru proves to have her own strengths and weaknesses; she nearly crosses the Despair Event Horizon at the end of the game and has to be saved by Toko, but similarly she was able to actually befriend Toko when Makoto wasn't. Komaru herself has a very good relationship with her brother but knows she can't be him and doesn't want to try. Later, there's Monaca Towa. For all her desire to be Junko's successor, she ultimately doesn't share Junko's core motivation: her despair fetish. Unlike Junko, who purely desired to spread despair and delighted in suffering it herself, Monaca discovers that she hates feeling despair and doesn't like to lose.

Full Frontal looks like Char, talks like Char, sounds like Char, replaced Char's role as leader of Zeon, espouses the same ideas as Char, and some (maybe even Full Frontal himself) believe him to BE Char. However, as Mineva points out, Char's dead. Char was a semi-insane idealist who hated being a political figure, who'd rather drop an entire friggin' asteroid onto earth than deal with petty politics. Contrast with Full Frontal, a cold, passionless clone who barely sees himself as a person, instead rather a gestalt of the will of all spacenoids, whose grand plan is cold reactionary realpolitik. Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury: Elan is initially drawn to Suletta believing she is, like him, a Disposable Vagrant surgically rebuilt into a cybernetic doppelgÃ¤nger of another person for the sole purpose of piloting a Gundam, a forbidden technology which harms their pilots through the neural feedback of linking their minds to such huge machines. When he discovers that Suletta is her own person, and that her Gundam is a perfected form of such technology that doesn't hurt her to pilot, the knowledge fills Elan with bitterness and envy. Suletta has everything he doesn't, and has never known suffering like his — in fact, his suffering has been completely unnecessary this whole time. Knowing this, he summarily challenges Suletta to a duel so he can take her Gundam for himself. Ironically, later revelations make clear that Suletta does actually share a lot with him: she's the latest and most advanced in a line of clones, created for the sole purpose of piloting her Gundam (an Evolving Weapon that needs her to guide its development), and when her purpose comes to an end, she is coldly discarded. Sadly, Elan is long dead by the time this fact comes to light (disposable vagrant, remember).

Not So Similar / int_8b2a9e80	comment	In Danganronpa 3, Monaca thought she could replace Junko Enoshima, the Big Bad of Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc. However the anime gradually reveals she actually doesn't have much in common with her. While Enoshima loves causing suffering, there tends to be an element of fairness to her challenges (arming high school kids with the chance to attack Ikusaba and her instead of themselves, blackmailing Sakakura instead of brainwashing him, letting Naegi live in spite of being a threat) mostly because the war is more exciting if she can lose. She actually presses the button to her own execution in the original game. In contrast, Monaca hates losing. Once her plans fall apart, instead of feeling elation she feels despair the way a normal person does, becoming apathetic to her current actions. Whereas Enoshima was a Killer Game Master, Monaca is little more than a sadistic thug that just likes copying the methods of her idol.

Meanwhile Miz was complaining about being overlooked and declaring himself awesome, similar to CM Punk claiming to be underappreciated and the best wrestler in the world. The difference here was that Miz had always been pandered to until his recent losing streak, CM Punk did not have nearly the amount of exposure even when he became a triple crown champion.

Both are major foils to Sonic who started off as his enemy before eventually becoming his ally. However, Knuckles maintains a rather Friendly Rival relationship with Sonic while Shadow plays the distant, dissenting rival. Their temperaments are pretty at odds too despite both being serious-minded individuals, Knuckles is rather Hot-Blooded and easily angered while Shadow is far more composed. Also, both are loners, but different types - Knuckles is more of a straight-up loner who has gotten used to being alone due to being isolated but makes friends easily while Shadow prefers to be alone because of his Dark and Troubled Past and has made very few friends. Blaze is often similar to Knuckles due to both being both guardians of powerful artifacts (Knuckles with the Master Emerald and Blaze with the Sol Emeralds) and both have served as Foils to Sonic where they started off as opponents before becoming friends of his. One key difference in that regard is that Knuckles antagonizes Sonic due to Eggman's manipulations while Blaze fought Sonic due to her stubbornness in accepting his help. Also, Blaze started off as an anti-social loner much like Knuckles, with the difference is Blaze's development from loner to friend was more expressed while Knuckles' development was rather subtle. As for temperaments, while the two are serious, Knuckles is hot-tempered while Blaze is calmer, but can get riled up on occasions.

Dib is an outcast because of his belief in the paranormal and is viewed as crazy for the trouble he causes, but the truth is that Dib is sane, while his peers are too dumb to see he's trying to save them; also, Dib knows he's an outcast. Also, despite Zim's loyalty to the Irken Empire, he is truly selfish with a big ego and does not care about the destruction he causes to win. In contrast, despite how selfish Dib can be at times and his big ego, he's actually genuinely good, seeing as he is willing to put his ego aside in order to save people he hates.

Then we learned that while JBL had a signature bull horn car, Del Rio had a different one every week, but what really put them apart was that JBL was much more of a dirty coward than Del Rio, who by contrast is more willing to get his own hands dirty as he believes he is destined to win. Their wrestling styles are very different and Del Rio's now known for his Hammy Herald. Nobody's calling him an expy anymore.

Yuu had turned down a former schoolmate's Love Confession because it didn't make her feel anything special, while Maki likens observing other people's relationships to watching a movie or reading a novel. After Yuu parts ways with Maki, feeling relieved that there are other people like her, Maki thinks, "I don't think we're as alike as she thinks. That face she made before... it's not a face that someone who isn't lonely would make," since it's implied that Yuu is falling in love with Touko. In Chapter 39, Maki bluntly tells Yuu that she's different from him, saying that she knows what it's like to love, and is simply trying to fool herself because she's afraid that her love won't be reciprocated.

Ichika tries to defend her actions by reminding Nino that she said she wouldn't let anybody get in her way to hook up with Fuutarou. Nino however replies that, in the case that Ichika would have been the chosen one, she (Nino) would have wholeheartedly supported her, because as much as she loves Fuutarou, her bond with her sisters is just as important to her, if not moreso. Once they finally calm down and talk things out, Nino shows more sympathy for Ichika and admits that she might have taken a similar course of action had their positions been reversed.

At first, the resemblance seems obvious; they're both clever, incredibly driven men who manipulate those around them, lead a double life, and have little-to-no qualms. But Gus, as it turns out, is much more cautious than Walt, and much better at considering the long-term consequences of his actions; he managed to create a meth empire and keep it going while maintaining success as both a crimelord and the owner of a restaurant chain, with many loyal workers and few-if-any leads on him. Walt is far more daring and impulsive, and also incredibly egocentric, meaning that he may have what it takes to get things done, but he doesn't have what it takes to run an empire. Both Gus himself and his key hitman Mike Ehrmantraut spell this out to Walter on different occasions. Gus' downfall also happens when he ironically starts behaving more like Walt.

Both were The Rival and a brotherly figure to a major character associated with light (Riku with Sora and Xehanort with Eraqus). They then both delved into the darkness and its power (Riku for the sake of adventure and Xehanort for the sake of being Eraqusâ€™ equal and partner), causing no shortage of calamity, as well as losing the right to wield the Keyblade. Where they differ is how they reacted to their actions. Xehanort, due to his curiosity and an overinflated sense of self-importance, came to covet the power and potential of darkness, at the cost of all that was important to him. He ended up on a downward spiral until he became the seriesâ€™ Big Bad, trying to ignite a second Keyblade War and an apocalypse for the sake of, as Eraqus put it, â€œsheer curiosityâ€�. Riku, by contrast, was absolutely horrified by the crimes he had committed as a result of being corrupted by darkness. No matter how harsh things became, Riku ultimately never forgot what mattered to him, that being his loyalty to his friends or his promise to Terra, the promise that allowed him to wield the Keyblade in the first place. For most of the series, Riku lived as The Atoner, trying to use the darkness for heroic actions and protecting his loved ones. He still wanted to show that he was worthy of the Keyblade, that he could help defend the light like his friends. Riku ultimately masters the darkness within him, earning his life with his friends back, becoming a Keyblade Master and even becoming immune to Xehanortâ€™s corruption. Xehanort, meanwhile, ultimately dies and loses everything in his pursuit of power.
