But it’s jagged and covered in bandages, with a more traditional keyblade hilt. The keyblade Fenrir is designed after Cloud’s motorcycle from Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, so it looks like a giant motorcycle key. True, there have been pin lock tumbler keyblades (as opposed to the much more common level lock tumbler) in Kingdom Hearts before. Instead, it appears to be the car key of a Honda Civic for giants. Which is why I was surprised and delighted to discover that Riku’s new keyblade in Kingdom Hearts 3 did not adhere to this design scheme. You can customize a keyblade to your heart’s content, as long as your heart’s content involves the word “maximalism.” What started off as Square Enix’s latest mash-em-up weapon (see the gunblade in Final Fantasy VIII) circa 2002 has become an endless exercise in joyful overdesign.
