| {{Q|Fakes should be destroyed!!|Riku Replica to Sora}}
| | '''Riku Replica''' is a direct copy of [[Riku]] who appeared in ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]''. Riku Replica, as his name implies, was created using the data of [[Sora|Sora's]] childhood friend, though it most often appears in the form of Dark Riku, with a [[Heartless]] emblem on its chest (the only time when it did not have a Heartless emblem on its chest was when he first bumped into Sora). Originally a subject to test the real Riku, the replica was later exploited to become a puppet of [[Marluxia]] who attempted to use him to manipulate Sora and overthrow the [[Organization XIII|Organization]]. |
| The '''Riku Replica''' is a [[replica]] of [[Riku]] created from the data [[Vexen]] had gathered. He appeared in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories]]'' and acts as one of the main antagonists of the game. Though he almost always appears in [[Dark Mode]], the only time when he did not have this suit on is his debut in either storyline. Originally a subject to test the real Riku, the Replica was later exploited to become a puppet of [[Marluxia]] who attempted to use him to manipulate [[Sora]] and overthrow [[Organization XIII]]. As [[Dark Riku]], he serves as a member of the [[real Organization XIII]].

| | *Sora's Story |
| The Riku Replica was created by Vexen in order to test Riku's strength, and hopefully cause Riku's [[heart]] to return to the [[darkness]]. At first, Riku was shocked to see his counterpart; however, after the original heard the Riku Replica's taunts, a battle began. Due to the short time of Riku Replica's existence, he lacked experience and was quickly defeated by the original. Riku then attempted to destroy the replica, but failed when the Riku Replica utilized the power of darkness.

|
| Riku Replica escapes, and eventually ends up in [[Organization XIII]]'s chambers, where [[Larxene]] taunted Riku Replica over his loss. However, the replica denied any fault of this, saying that his powers had not grown enough, which resulted in her bashing him into the wall calling him "nothing but a mere toy". The Organization members later change their plans, hoping to turn Sora into their puppet and overthrow the Organization. Larxene suggested that Riku Replica's memories should be rewritten to be the same as the original's so he would become a much stronger and more useful tool. Riku Replica, upon hearing Larxene's idea, rejected it, saying that he did not need his original's pitiful memories, but all the members began to agree upon Larxene's plan. Fearing that he would lose his memory, Riku Replica assaulted Larxene. However, he was quickly knocked out and [[Naminé]] was ordered to rewrite the replica's memory.

|
| |
|
| After having his memory rewritten, Riku Replica swore to protect Naminé, and saw Sora as a threat, feeling already betrayed by him as he thought Sora didn't care for him and cared only for [[Kairi]]. At some point during the period in which he believed himself to be the true Riku, the Replica was retrieved by [[Young Xehanort]] and implanted with a fragment of [[Xehanort]]'s heart, inducting him into the [[real Organization XIII]] as "[[Dark Riku]]".{{?}}<!--cite ultimania--> Once Dark Riku was defeated in the future, his heart returned to its proper place in time.{{?}}<!--cite YX's KH3D speech, RR's KH3 departure speech, or KH3 ultimania-->

| [[File:Reunion with Riku 01 KHRECOM.png|thumb|200px|The Riku Replica confronts Sora.]] | | ==Story== |
| Sora's first encounter with the replica confused the [[Keyblade Master]], as he believed that the replica was the real Riku. Sora managed to defeat the replica, who then escaped. Riku Replica later encountered Sora in [[Castle Oblivion]]'s 8th floor, where he urged Sora to leave, as he would protect Naminé. Hoping to regain his friend, Sora offered to jog Riku Replica's memory, but nothing worked, and a fight ensued.
| | ===Origins=== |
| | | [[Image:CH rikur1.gif|left]] |
| Riku Replica, defeated, felt even more anger when Sora offered his help so they could protect Naminé together. Hearing Sora say "together", Riku Replica is filled with sadness and rage and he screams his true feelings at Sora, telling him that he was always trying to worm his way into his heart and that it never mattered to him how he felt. After that, Riku Replica runs away, leaving Sora behind, confused. | | The Riku Replica was created by [[Vexen]] in order to gauge [[Riku|Riku's]] strength, and hopefully cause [[Riku|Riku's]] Heart to return to the [[Darkness]].

|
| Riku Replica's third encounter with Sora happens on the 11th floor, after his creator's demise, where he means to force Sora to leave. Sora, who has defeated Vexen, tells his friend that he is free, but the Riku Replica claimed that he was protecting Naminé from him, of his own free will. Riku Replica then tells Sora of the very same promise Sora made to Naminé when they were young. Sora claims that he was the one who made the promise and shows Riku Replica the lucky charm Naminé gave him as proof. In a rage, Riku Replica lashes out at Sora, and tells him that the Keyblade master's lucky charm was a fake, and the lucky charm he holds is the real thing. Sora and the replica fought, but the Riku Replica was once again defeated, and ran away. | | ===Involvement with [[Sora]]=== |

| [[File:The Last One-on-One 01 KHRECOM.png|thumb|left|200px|In the memory-based Twilight Town, Riku Replica fights Riku in hopes of becoming more than his "shadow".]]
| | Riku Replica's third encounter with [[Sora]] happens on the 12th floor, where he means to force [[Sora]] to leave. [[Sora]], who has defeated [[Vexen]], tells his friend that he is free.

| After leaving Sora, Riku Replica joined [[Axel]], who would use him for enacting his (and [[Saïx]]'s) own plans. They seek out the wounded [[Zexion]], who is initially shocked to see them, believing Axel to be accompanied by "the real Riku". His relief does not last long, however, after Axel presents the replica with an idea, telling that if he gains power that the real Riku doesn't have, he could be something real, not someone's counterpart. Agreeing, Riku Replica approaches Zexion, and drains the life force out of him (initially giving him Zexion's powers). Riku Replica was later seen in a memory version of [[Twilight Town]], where he meets Riku in front of the [[Old Mansion]]. The replica remarks that Riku no longer feared the darkness, in which he earns the original's confusion in return. Riku Replica replies that he ''is'' Riku, and thus he would know everything about his counterpart. Feeling annoyed, Riku remarks that he is himself, and no one could possibly be him. Angered because of the fact that he is "a fake", the Riku Replica taps his dark powers, and states that in the end, he was still nothing but a replica, even after gaining new power.

|
| Blinded by jealousy and rage, Riku Replica engaged the original, and the two had a fierce battle. In the end, despite Riku Replica's new found powers, he was defeated, and slowly faded back into the Darkness. With his dying breath, he asks Riku where a replica's heart like his would go. Riku comforts the replica, stating that it would go to the same place as his. The replica smiles, and remarks "''A faithful replica until the very end. That's... okay,''" before fading back into the darkness.

| | ===Involvement with [[Riku]]=== |
| |Riku Replica never fights the real Riku in the manga adaption. However, he encounters Riku, and tries to make himself look taller. He also takes a piece of meat, thinking Naminé had taken a bite of it (though it was actually Larxene), and puts a chain on it, pretending that it's a "new good luck charm" (referring to Naminé giving him the fake good luck charm). Also, Riku Replica only fights Sora once. The second time he is encountered by Sora, he simply grabs Sora's good luck charm and attempts to smash it before Naminé crushes his heart. In a short story called "[[The Strange Tale of the Riku Replica]]", he is revived and visits the grave of Vexen and asks him why he was made. Many replicas of Vexen appeared, stating "We are all failed replicas," and the Riku Replica picks up a hobo stick and leaves saying he needs to find himself, only to find that Vexen's replicas won't leave him be.
| | After leaving [[Sora]], he joined [[Axel]]. They seek out the wounded [[Zexion]], who was shocked to see [[Riku]], but was relieved to know that the "[[Riku]]" he saw was just the Replica.

| ===''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days''=== | | ===CoM Manga=== |
| Riku Replica is mentioned once when [[Xion]] is revealed as a replica and is also mentioned in the [[Replica Program]] as "a numberless replica". Axel mentions Riku Replica in his own Secret Reports, stating that he is the only one who understands that Riku Replica gained a sense of self. He also expresses regret at having used the replica as a tool. | | [[Riku Replica]] never fights the real [[Riku]] in the manga adaption. However, he encounters [[Riku]], and tries to make himself look taller. When [[Riku]] blatantly ignores him, [[Riku Replica]] visits [[Vexen|Vexen's]] grave, where he encounters [[Vexen]] clones, who keep following him. He also takes a bit off a piece of a rice cake and puts a chain on it, pretending that it's a "new good luck charm" (Referring to [[Naminé]] giving him the fake luck charm). |

| | Also, [[Riku Replica]] only fights [[Sora]] once. The second time he is encountered by [[Sora]], he simply grabs [[Sora|Sora's]] good luck charm and attempts to smash it before [[Naminé]] crushes his heart. |
| Naminé illustrated Sora's memories of the Riku Replica in one of her drawings in [[The White Room]].

|
| ===''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance''===
| | Then in the last few pages there is a short story called "The Strange Tale of the [[Riku Replica]]" where he is revived and he visits the grave of [[Vexen]] and asks him why he was made. Many replicas of [[Vexen]] appear stating "We are all failed replicas," and the [[Riku Replica|replica of Riku]] picks up a hobo stick and leaves saying he needs to find himself, only to find that [[Vexen|Vexen's]] replicas won't leave him be. |
| Upon encountering a version of himself in a [[black coat]], Riku recalls the Riku Replica.

| ===''Kingdom Hearts III''=== | | ==Fighting Style== |
| Having been wandering the [[Dark World]] as a disembodied heart, Riku Replica nearly allowed himself to vanish. However, he caught sight of the real Riku in trouble and freed him from the [[Demon Tower]]. In gratitude, Riku leaves his broken [[Way to the Dawn]] behind for the replica. Upon Riku's return, Riku Replica offers the repaired [[Keyblade]] to fight [[Anti-Aqua]], only to learn that Riku got a replacement in [[Braveheart]].
| | The Riku Replica fights with the same style as the real [[Riku]], but his sleights take less power than [[Riku|Riku's]]. For example, [[Riku]] can only use Dark Aura with three 9's, a total of 27. However, the Replica can use any three cards, such as 4, 7, and 8 to perform Dark Aura. He never uses the sleight "Dark Break", Instead he substitutes it for a sleight called "Helm Split". He is also more aggressive, which leads to some open moments during his battles. |
|
| |
|
| Temporarily merging hearts with Riku to leave the Dark World, Riku Replica reveals since his defeat at Castle Oblvion, he's been holding on to existence to take care of unfinished business.
| | ==Quotes== |
| | *"''Surprised? I guess you would be. After all, I look just like you. I'll tell you what I am. I'm an exact replica of you that [[Vexen]] made from your data.''" |
| | *"''Not a "fake"! I don't care if you're "real"! You're not better! We share the same body and the same talents. But there is one easy way to tell us apart, though! Unlike you...I fear nothing.''" |
| | *"''No worries. The real [[Riku]] was nothing, [[Sora]] won't be either. They're no match for me.''" |
| | *"''Looks like I win.''" |
| | *"''What can you possibily think I ever have? Both my body and heart are fake. But...there is one memory I'll keep...even if it is a lie! Whetever it was a phantom promise or not..I will protect [[Naminé]].''" |
| | *"''It's sooo good to have [[Darkness]] on my side.''" |
| | *"''Hold it.''" |
| | *"''I'm you...''" |
| | *"''(after Riku replies "No! I'M me!") "I'm me," he says. Must be nice being real. A fake like me could never get away with saying that. That's right. I'm a phony, a fake! The way I look, the way I feel, everything I remember! And even this newfound power!''" |
| | *"''I thought by finding some new strength, I could finally be someone--- someone who is not at all you! But... nothing changes... I'm still just empty! Everything about me is borrowed. As long as you're around, I'll never be more than a shadow!''" |
| | *"''So...it's over. Hmph. Death doesn't frighten me. Good riddance to a phony life. My heart was never real. I'm sure even what I'm feeling now is probably all fake.''" |
| | *"''What happens when a fake dies--- one like me? Where will my heart go? Does it disappear?...''" |
| | *"''A faithful replica until the very end. That's... okay.''" |
| | *"''How can I lose to you?''" |
| | *"''Me, lose?''" |
| | *"''You gotta be kidding?!''" |
| | *"''You're the fake!''" |
| | *"''This isn't the end.''" |
| | *"''You're strong... [[Riku|Real Thing]].''" |
| | *"''Want some more?! (before catching Sora off-guard during their final battle)''" |

| [[File:Riku and Riku 01 KHIII.png|thumb|200px|Riku Replica removes Dark Riku from the vessel he is using, leaving it behind for Naminé to use.]]
| |
| Once [[Dark Riku]] is defeated, Riku Replica expels his past self's heart from the vessel. Despite Riku's protests, the replica leaves Dark Riku's vessel for Naminé to take and fades away, fulfilling his promise to protect her.

| The Riku Replica is physically identical to Riku as he appears in ''Kingdom Hearts'', sporting the same skin tone, bright blue eyes, and shoulder-length silver hair. He initially appears in Riku's standard outfit, but quickly shifts into his [[Dark Mode]] form, and remains in the latter outfit for the remainder of his appearance.

| | The Replica was more aggressive and protective than Riku, which is exactly what [[Xehanort's Heartless]] was looking for. A key difference between the two is as follows; while Riku fears the darkness in his heart, the Replica embraces his and wields it effectively. He was also more stubborn, which made him more of an enemy in the game. Another factor is how he searched for his existence nonstop, he wished to be the true one to [[Naminé]]'s fake memories. This brings up a more tragic view of this character and he seems to (like Sora) get very angry when he's confused, as shown when the [[Organization XIII|Organization]] members such as [[Larxene]] mess with him. At the end of his life, the Replica became much more like the original, becoming sullen and mellow. He was quick to anger, and often lashed out at anyone who talked back to him, even if they overpowered him. He seemed to be as powerful as Riku was at [[Hollow Bastion]], when under [[Xehanort's Heartless|Ansem's]] possession. |
| Due to being created from Riku's combat data, the Replica lacks his memories and only knows about Riku via secondhand knowledge. Additionally, the Replica is much more aggressive and prone to lashing out. The Replica sees himself as superior to the original Riku as, unlike him, the Replica holds no fear of the darkness in his heart and wields it with a mastery that Riku lacks.
| |
| | |
| Once he is brainwashed to believe he is the real Riku and that Sora is the source of Naminé's sorrow, the Replica begins stubbornly attacking his "friend" to chase him off. However, as the Replica realizes that his memories of Naminé are contradicted by Sora's, the Replica aims to destroy him to end the confusion.
| |
| | |
| After Naminé breaks his fake memories, the Replica remembers his real identity and decides to hold onto the memory of vowing to protect Naminé, knowing that it is the closest real memory he has. Axel later convinced him that gaining powering and slaying Riku would allow the Replica to take his place. After he is defeated by Riku, the Replica accepts his demise, making peace with his existence as an artificial being.
| |
| | |
| His vow to protect Naminé kept him from fading as a disembodied heart in the Dark World for a year. Even though Riku offered a vessel to be reborn, the Replica refuses and chooses to give the vessel to Naminé, content with fading away as he has fulfilled his promise to protect her.
| |
| | |
| ==Fighting style==
| |
| {{main|Game:Riku Replica}}
| |
| The Riku Replica fights with the same style as the real Riku, but is generally more aggressive and leaves himself wide open during his battles. His [[sleight]]s take less power than Riku's, only needing any three cards provided they are the right type to perform [[Dark Aura]] in contrast to the three 9's that Riku needs, and unlike Riku, he remains able to use item cards while in Dark Mode. He also uses Helm Split instead of Riku's [[Dark Break]].
| |
|
| |
|
| The Riku Replica primarily wields [[Soul Eater]]. In ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]'', he acquires Riku's [[Way to the Dawn]] [[Keyblade]], which Riku leaves behind in the [[Realm of Darkness]] when it is snapped in half.
