Roxas's Diary appears in both Kingdom Hearts II and Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days as a journal chronicling his thoughts and adventures. In Kingdom Hearts II, the journal changes throughout the day with only the present entry viewable, and it serves to point the player towards their next goal. In Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, it takes on the role that the Story section of Jiminy's Journal did in previous games, by keeping track of the plot throughout the game.
Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days
Day 7: Entry 1
It's been a week since I got here. Saïx told me to keep a diary, but he said nobody would check it. What am I supposed to write about?
Today they told us to go to the Round Room, where we met our new member, No. XIV. Was I like that when I first got here? I think I was. But I don't remember too well.
Day 8: Entry 2
Axel and I went to Twilight Town today. He taught me a lot.
Before we RTC'd (Returned To the Castle) we swung by the clock tower and had some sea-salt ice cream. Axel called it the "icing on the cake" after a successful mission. Well, except there was no cake—just the ice cream.
I don't know what to write in this thing!
Day 9: Entry 3
The past few days, the other members have been showing me how to fight and do mission stuff. They also told me more about the Organization, and about myself.
I still don't really get what a "heart" is. But apparently, it's a vital piece of who I am—so I've decided to cooperate. If I collect enough hearts, I can complete Kingdom Hearts. Then I'll be whole.
Day 14: Entry 4
Me and Axel went on a mission to Twilight Town. Afterwards, we went and had ice cream again up on the clock tower.
He said friends do stuff like that. Or they laugh together. So does that mean me and him are friends?
Day 15: Entry 5
The other members have been teaching me more about how to fight and stuff. It's going, I guess.
Every day after work, I've been meeting Axel at the clock tower to have sea-salt ice cream. It really is salty! But still sweet, too. How come it tastes so familiar?
Day 22: Entry 6
Axel is going to some place called Castle Oblivion. He told me because we're friends.
He had to go home early to get ready, and after he left I noticed the word WINNER on my ice cream stick. I wonder what I won... I'll ask him when I see him tomorrow.
Day 23: Entry 7
Axel left before I woke up this morning. I never got to ask him about the ice cream stick.
I was partnered up with No. XIV for today's mission. Xion wore a hood the whole time and wouldn't say a word to me. Come to think of it, I didn't have a whole lot to say, either.
Afterwards I went and had ice cream by myself.
Day 24: Entry 8
I teamed up with No. XIV again today. We finally talked a little—Xion even said my name for the first time.
Afterwards I had ice cream by myself again. The lady at the shop said you can trade the WINNER stick for an extra bar. But I can't eat more than one.
Day 25: Entry 9
Today was my third day with Xion. I've gotten to know a little more about her. That's right—she's a girl, with black hair, and she can use the Keyblade just like me!
I took her out for ice cream afterwards, but I'm saving the WINNER stick. Axel deserves a reward when he gets back. Xion wants to have ice cream with us from now on. Maybe we'll be friends.
Day 26: How Long?
I only remember part of this day. I heard somebody sent to Castle Oblivion was terminated. Saïx said it may have been Axel.
I tried to ask Xigbar about it on the day's mission, and he said nothing's left of Nobodies once we're gone, because we have no hearts to leave behind. I don't remember much after that. They say I collapsed and wouldn't wake up...
Day 50: Xion's Seashells
I must have missed a lot. It's like I had the longest dream. I woke up to find a bunch of seashells by my pillow. I counted them - one for each day they said I was asleep.
I was wondering who left them there, but then when I got to the clock tower, Xion gave me another one. I held it up to my ear, and I could hear the ocean... Why did it sound so familiar?
The stuff I dreamed about felt strangely familiar too. I remember being in a white room with somebody the same age as me wearing red clothes... and then he sort of disappeared into the white.
And there was a girl's voice - she said I knew I'd be "snoozing." Why would she know that? The voice was a little like Xion's.
Day 51: Annihilation
It seems like the Organization members who went to Castle Oblivion really were all destroyed. Was Axel really annihilated? When I think about that, I get this weird feeling like something is blocking my throat. I went to eat ice-cream on top of the clock tower after my mission, but no-one else came.
Day 52: Eating ice-cream alone
I still feel this pain, as though something is stuck blocking my throat. I eat ice-cream alone after my missions. Not even Xion comes. Is Axel really not going to come back...?
Also, there's something that's been bothering me lately. In the time since I fainted, I've had this feeling like there's something inside my head. Not always, but sometimes... Even when I'm awake...It happens during missions...So, I don't think it's a dream. I wonder what they are, these images that sometimes flow into my head?
Day 71: Axel returned
When I'd finished my mission, Axel suddenly returned, and I didn't know what to do. So he wasn't annihilated? We went to the clock tower, ate ice-cream, and talked about Xion. The painful lump in my throat went away.
Day 72: Ice-cream with Axel
I went to Agrabah with Axel. I feel like Axel has changed a little since he came back from Castle Oblivion. After our mission, we ate ice-cream together. I wonder when the three of us - me, Axel and Xion -will be able to eat ice-cream together?
Day 73: Xion isn't here
I thought that the three of us could eat ice-cream together after our missions, so I looked for Xion, but I couldn't find her. In fact, I think it's been about 10 days since I've seen her. It looks like Axel will ask Saïx about Xion for me. Today Axel didn't come to the clock tower either.
Day 74: The three of us ate ice-cream
Today, me and Axel's mission was to look for Xion, who hadn't returned from her own mission. We found Xion, and finally the three of us ate ice-cream together, but it seems that Xion has become unable to use her Keyblade. We decided that Xion and I would go on missions together. Apparently when you're in trouble, your friends help you out.
Day 75: Best friends
I went on a mission with Xion. Apparently the Genie we met in Agrabah is "best friends" with a guy called Al. I asked Axel what a best friend is, and he said they're "one rank above a friend". But Axel doesn't have any best friends, so he doesn't understand the idea very well. Axel knows everything, so I thought he'd know about best friends.
Also, while I was on the mission in Agrabah I saw some kind of image in my head. The guy in the red clothes that I saw before...Has he been to Agrabah too?
Day 94: Kingdom Hearts
We were summoned by Xemnas. I don't understand the things Xemnas says. Kingdom Hearts, which looks kind of like a moon, is floating in the night sky. I wonder what it means to 'gather hearts, make hearts our own, and not be deluded by hearts'? Axel told me that if we had hearts, we'd be able to understand all sorts of things. I really don't understand what a "heart" is.
Day 95: Memories
I went on a mission to Agrabah with Xion. I've gotten pretty used to going on missions with her. When we got back, we talked to Axel about some stuff to do with Organization members. It seems like the sort of Nobodies who become Organization members all have some memories of the time they were human. But Xion and I have no memories. I wonder what sort of guy I was when I was a human?
Day 96: It's okay, now...
I went on a mission to Beast's Castle with Xion. As a test, I gave my Keyblade to Xion and she could use it just fine. I had to fight without a Keyblade but we finished the mission without any problems. And after the mission, Xion was able to use her own Keyblade again. So everything's okay now. Afterwards, the three of us ate ice-cream.
Day 97: That place...
Every day after completing our missions, the three of us eat ice-cream together. We don't talk about anything really important while eating ice-cream, but whenever I finish a mission, I think, "I want to go to that place." I wonder if Axel and Xion think the same thing? I wonder what the other Organization members do after they finish their missions.
Day 117: Special Nobodies...
I went on a mission with Xigbar. Xion and Axel also went on a mission together. Xigbar told me that Xion and I are special Nobodies. I wonder if that's because we can use Keyblades? The mission was really long, so I couldn't go to the clock tower. I wonder if Xion and Axel went to eat ice-cream.
During my mission, I saw another image in my head. The same guy in red clothes appeared, as usual. These images...What could they be? Is it something to do with the fact that I'm a special Nobody? If it is, I wonder if Xion is seeing the same kind of images as me...
Day 118: Holiday.
My first holiday. But, I didn't know what to do. I was told to do whatever I liked, so I went to the clock tower to eat ice-cream. Later Axel and Xion came too, and we talked for a while. It looks like Axel's going away again tomorrow. Come to think of it, I still haven't given him his "reward".
Day 119: Precious things...
Axel isn't around. After my mission I ate ice-cream on top of the clock tower with Xion. At Beast's Castle, I found something that the Beast considered precious. Xaldin told me that precious things can be used as weak points. What does that mean? I don't have anything precious, so I don't understand.
Day 149: I forgot again...
I went to a new world today. It was kind of a strange place. When I returned from my mission, while I was eating ice-cream on the clock tower, Axel unexpectedly returned. Apparently his mission is finished. This time, it was Xion who didn't come, instead. I wonder if she had a difficult mission? I forgot to give Axel his "reward" again, but I decided to hold onto it until Xion was there.
Day 150: Something you don't want to lose...
Today Xion didn't come to the clock tower again. She spoke to Saïx about something, but I don't know what happened between them. When I talked to Axel about the thing the Beast didn't want to lose, he taught me that, "Your memories of the past create things you don't want to lose." I don't have any memory of when I was a human, but I don't want to forget the things that have happened since I joined the Organization. Even just thinking about that makes me scared.
Day 151: The difference between me and Xion
When I went on my mission to Twilight Town, Xion came too. Apparently she recently failed a mission. After we finished our mission, we talked about various things at the clock tower, but I have no idea what Xion was thinking about. The difference between me and Xion...Obviously there is one, but what could it be?
Day 152: I don't get it
I think Xion might be mad at me, but I don't know why. Axel says girls are complicated. You can't press the wrong buttons.Like I'm supposed to know what the right ones are.
Day 153: Tastes bad...
I've hardly seen Xion, and Axel seems busy. When I eat ice-cream it just tastes salty, and it gets all over my hands, and I don't know what to do. It's like I'm only eating ice-cream so that I can throw the stick in the rubbish bin at the station. I eat these ice-creams all the time, but I haven't seen another "winner". And this whole time, I haven't been able to ask Xion about the images that appear in my head during missions. It feels like there are a lot of areas where I don't know what I should do...
Day 171: What is love?
On my mission, Xaldin told me that the Beast has a special kind of power. It's a thing called 'the power of love'. I didn't understand at all, so I asked Axel. I didn't understand Axel's explanation either. He explained that if I had a heart I'd be able to understand, but I feel like I haven't been told the whole truth.
Day 172: Xion fainted
Xion failed a mission, came back, and fell asleep. I went to see her, but she really was fast asleep. I put a sea shell by her pillow, like she had done for me. I don't think Saïx likes Xion. I wonder why? Maybe Saïx knows something about Xion that the other Organization members don't.
During today's mission I saw another image in my head. As usual, the guy in red clothes was there. Has he been to Wonderland too? More importantly, just what are these images?
While Xion is asleep, I thought I'd work extra hard to make up for her share. Axel told me he had talked to Saïx about Xion, but that he didn't learn anything. Instead, he made Saïx take back what he said, that "Xion is a failure." It'd be good if the situation improves when Xion wakes up.
Day 174: Leaving sea shells
Xion still hasn't woken up, and I'm still working hard to make up for her share. After missions, I just talk about pointless things with Axel. Then I come back to the castle, and go to put a sea shell beside Xion's pillow. If they can cheer Xion up just a little when she wakes up, I'll be happy.
When I was on my mission in Neverland, I saw another image. And I felt like it wasn't the first time I'd been able to fly. Has the guy in the red clothes flown like I have?
Day 193: Best friends
Xion woke up. Today I went on a mission with Axel and Xion, but Xion fainted during the mission. It looks like she's not back to her full strength after all. Saïx said something cruel when we got back. It made me angry. Afterwards, I talked to Axel in Xion's room. Xion woke up. The three of us are best friends.
Day 194: Even if we're separated...
After finishing missions, I go to the usual place. Sometimes Axel or Xion is waiting, sometimes I wait for the other two. Recently we've been busy, so sometimes we can't all be there, but now even if we're separated I think things are okay. I wonder what Xion and Axel think? Oh, and I forgot to ask Xion whether she sees images in her head during missions...
As usual, I've been seeing the guy in red clothes in my head, but I still don't know who he is. I wonder if there's some sort of connection between us?
Day 224: Xion's behavior
Xion's is acting a little strange. I wonder if she's unwell again. Axel said that next holiday, the three of us should go to the beach together. I think Axel's noticed Xion's strange behavior, too. Spending a holiday together would be good. I'm sure Xion will get better soon.
Day 225: Strange, after all...
Xion really is acting strangely. Even when I talk to Axel, all he says is that it'll probably be okay. I wonder why, when I'm sure Axel has noticed Xion's strange condition too? Is he trying not to make me worry?
Day 255: Axel's behavior, too
After my mission, I ate ice-cream with Axel. Xion didn't come. Axel told me that she couldn't come because she has an important mission, but Axel was acting a little strangely. I haven't been able to think about anything except Xion's strange behaviour, but now that I do think about it I feel like Axel's behavior has been strange this whole time, too.
Day 256: Xion disappeared...
Xion has disappeared. I haven't been told that she's been annihilated. I've been told her whereabouts are unknown. Has Xion deserted the Organization? Why would she do something like that? Saïx seemed to be saying that there was no point in bringing her back. What on earth is going on?
Day 257: Avoidance
I really want to talk to Axel about Xion, but I haven't been able to see him. I don't know what I should do. Could it be that Axel has been avoiding me...?
Day 276: At the beach...
I don't remember today's mission. I just remember going to the beach. But I don't know if I really went to the beach or not. Axel promised me that tomorrow we'll start looking for Xion.
Day 277: Can't find her
No matter how many worlds we search, we can't find Xion. Where on earth could Xion be? Why did she desert the Organization? I don't understand.
Day 296: Castle Oblivion
There's still one place we haven't searched. Castle Oblivion. When I mentioned it to Axel, he told me that Xion had been born in Castle Oblivion. Apparently Axel knew that all this time. Could Xion be...At Castle Oblivion?
Day 297: Who is he?
We went to look for Xion in Castle Oblivion, but I don't remember anything about the Castle. According to Axel, I fainted as soon as I entered the Castle. When I woke up I was in Twilight Town. There, we found Xion. Xion was with a guy who was wearing an Organization Coat, but wasn't one of our group. Why? Who is that guy?
Day 298: There must have been another way...
Axel suddenly attacked Xion. Surely there must have been some other way...There's something strange about Xion, but there's something strange about Axel too. I don't know what the two of them are thinking.
Day 299: "Sora"...?
Xemnas said that Xion and I are living through a connection to "Sora". I don't understand at all. Who is Sora?
Day 300: I couldn't say it...
For the first time in a long time, the three of us ate ice-cream together after our missions. But I didn't know what to talk about. Before I had so many things to talk about, but now I don't know what I should say.
So many things have been happening lately that I've forgotten to write about the images. Recently, I've been seeing them even when I'm not on missions. And compared to before, I feel like the number has been increasing. Sometimes, they even come during dreams. A while ago Xion said she had been dreaming, I wonder if there's some kind of connection?
Day 301: I had a dream...
Recently, I've been dreaming a lot. Because of that, I feel like I haven't been sleeping much. I'm really tired every day. When I go to the clock tower, Axel and Xion don't come. I feel like if I could talk to the two of them, I'd stop dreaming and be able to sleep, but they aren't around.
Day 321: My body's condition...
My body feels heavy somehow. I didn't understand the dream I had today. So I've been feeling very confused. I don't know why water was coming out of my eyes. What was that? Even now I still don't understand. Today I went on a mission with Xion. Unlike me, Xion acted like her body was very light. When we came back, we had ice-cream together for the first time in ages.
Day 322: Another dream...
I had another dream. My head feels heavy. I want to eat ice-cream with Xion and Axel again.
Day 352: The sunset we watched together...
The three of us ate ice-cream together. The sunset was beautiful. I'll never forget today.
Day 353: I can't trust him...
Axel let Xion escape. Xion is a doll? A mirror to reflect me? I don't understand what Axel told me. I can't trust Axel.
Day 354: What am I?
I don't know what the Organization is thinking. I don't know what Axel is thinking, either. But what I don't understand, most of all, is why I obey this Organisation. Xion and I are special Nobodies, living through our connection to "Sora". If Xion is a doll, then, what about me? Just what am I?
Day 355: I Am
I have to know who I am...
I am DONE WITH THIS
Day 357: Three Again?
I'm going to set Kingdom Hearts free and find my way to Sora. I'm going to get Xion back. The three of us will have ice cream together again - I know it.
