The Sora Questions (Part 1)

We've got a Discord now — and someone in it pointed me at a site that's basically what you'd get if Trello and a noticeboard had a baby, stuffed with every unanswered question in Kingdom Hearts. So I'm working through the Sora row, one sticky note at a time. This is part one. I get into: who or what actually decided Sora's fate, and why nobody ever talks about the crown; why he crystallises like a Final Fantasy XIII l'Cie when Yozora beats him, and what that implies he "completed"; whether Sora even has a heart in the same way, given Ven took refuge in him before he was fully formed; whether he's dead, erased, missing or displaced; why he's still not considered a Keyblade Master, and how the Character Files quietly retconned what "Master" even means; and the big one — what law did Sora actually break with the Power of Waking, because the more I look at it (and at what Chirithy does and doesn't know), the less convinced I am he broke anything at all. Plus quickfire takes on the dual-wielding question, the Remind fade, the Yozora clothes in Toy Box, the Pirates underwater thing, and more. Roughly an hour of it, and we're only through the first row — more next episode.
