Why does neku look like sora

He can throw vehicles around with his psychokinesis and is able to pull off the force choke. He can teleport, summon swords, shoot laser blasts, create fire out of nothing, rain down lightning and can control him self pretty well through psychic powers i.

He is pretty intuitive with his surroundings as well figuring out most problems that others wouldn't. More like hypersonic at best, but most definitely not FTL. Neku has shown some hypersonic feats as well through fusion.

In my personal opinion, at his best Sora is half as fast as Light, because he probably couldn't have blocked all those attacks without Riku picking up half the slack himself. However, it's still an impressive feat to keep him on par with midtier fighters: Lasers coming from multiple directions shows impressive reaction time, while they seemed kinda slow for lasers there was so many of them giving the laser dome a kind of "zombie hoard" effect, eventually it would have him at about hypersonic speed at most.

Hm, Then that makes him really hard to gauge. Unless it's in QTEs, cutscenes, or scripted events, it's hard to tell how much is player influence or the actual skill of the character. What's the strongest being he's used that on? Because Sora can manipulate Gravity, which is effective on even larger enemies. Honestly this one probably won't mean much against a skilled Keyblade wielder like Sora. Not to mention his Drive Forms, one of which allows him to utilize two Keyblades telekinetically.

Sora is has dodged an omnidirectional barrage of lasers, so I don't that Neku can shoot more than this:. But Sora has also beaten multiple copies of Larxene at the same time, whose main power is, funny enough, lightning! Really, from what I've been told here, this is a stomp.

Sora is just too powerful. Does Neku even have a counter for being frozen in Time? Sora not only dodged, but reflected an omnidirectional barrage of them. The fact that he did it with Riku is a minor point, since he still had to move and react to half of them. That would still make him MFTL. Lol, it's not that bad!

Neku wakes up in the Scramble Crossing, this time in the Realground and restored to life with a small crowd looking at the boy on the floor. Neku eventually stands up and screams, "Why This is because Neku was under the under the impression that the city would be erased because he lost and realized he was misled by Joshua once again, when Joshua only said that he would decide what to do with Shibuya, instead of erasing it. A week later, Neku walks around Shibuya, addressing an absent Joshua about how he grew over the past few weeks and inviting him to meet at Hachiko.

He meets with Beat and Rhyme at the Statue of Hachiko. A while later, Shiki joins the group as well. Joshua never appears proper at their meeting, but he watches them with Hanekoma on Building's rooftop. Neku is seen finally taking off his headphones. In the parallel universe of This Day Ends with You , it is mentioned that Neku met Hanekoma when he was about years-old and this Neku already knows of Hanekoma's identity as CAT , but not much else.

Neku would come in with clippings of images and say, "Do me like this! Neku amused himself with Tin Pin Slammer instead. In the present day, Neku competes in a Tin Pin tournament, when all of the players but him have their pins taken.

He decides to lie about losing his pins so he wouldn't be suspected. He then forms a team to find the missing pins. In Pork City, he finds Hanekoma ascending the tower. Deciding to follow him, Neku reflects on his long lost friend, who is revealed to have died in an accident.

It is also revealed that he blames himself for that accident. Upon reaching the top, Neku meets the main world version of Hanekoma, who challenges him to a fight before leaving. Neku and Beat decide to partner again. The two quickly meets the Reaper Coco who he does not entirely trust but still allows to follow them.

All of which he notes act out of character. He also frequently receives visions of the near future. The origin of these visions are tied to Tsugumi Matsunae. One of these visions is of Rhyme's death which he chooses not to tell Beat.

This soon comes true and also results in the erasure of Shiki much to Neku's dismay. When Neku arrives, he learns that the Shibuya he was in was a pseudo-parallel world created by Coco and was actually a giant Noise. Neku and Beat defeat the Noise and return to the Realground in Udagawa. Shiki immediately calls Neku to ask him if he would like to go shopping later to look for materials to fix a tear in Mr.

Coco suddenly shoots Neku, killing him in front of a horrified Beat. Coco flees after Joshua arrives on the scene with a gun, and Neku's body is seen disappearing from reality. After Coco shot Neku in A New Day , as a precautionary measure, Joshua sent Neku from Shibuya into Shinjuku during its purification, presumably to have him handle the situation there and keep him isolated and safe from those who would target him for his abilities.

However, due to bad timing, Neku was transported just after Shinjuku was purified. Neku was unable to escape in this strange temporal space for about three years, and even Joshua's powers as an Angel could not rescue Neku. Neku described it as being stuck in an lonesome area with only the stray thoughts of people. On the first day of Rindo's Reapers' Game, Hanekoma picked up vibes similar to those emitting from Shinjuku just before its purification, suggesting Neku was nearly finished on his journey back to Shibuya.

At some point, Neku apparently made it back to Shibuya where he crossed paths with Coco and she explained she was trying to recruit his aid and save Tsugumi Matsunae the whole time. Considering how Neku does not notice the Gatto Nero label on his jacket, this implies he obtained these clothes very recently, possibly from Coco.

From the end of the first week up to the second day of Week 2 , Beat is mistaken to be Neku due to his appearance being similar to Neku's own. Neku joins the Wicked Twisters thereafter.

In order to help save Shibuya, Neku has to sync with everyone in Shibuya. Neku helps the team defeat Phoenix Cantus. Neku has another talk with Joshua at Udagawa where they discuss Joshua's reasons for sending Neku to Shinjuku.

Seeing how Neku wanted to return to the RG, Joshua used a sample from a parallel world where Neku never went to Shinjuku and instead lived peacefully in the RG for three years in order to modify the space and memories around Neku so that he may once again reside in the RG without issue.

Afterwards, Neku proceeds to reunite with Shiki at the Statue of Hachiko after his three year absence. Shiki is Neku's first partner in the Reapers' Game. At first, Neku dislikes Shiki, finding her behavior "obnoxious" and controlling. He acts coldly towards her and only staying with her to survive. He nicknames her "Stalker" because she follows him around wherever he goes. In the Japanese version, Neku also feels Shiki is a hypocrite and points out the hypocrisy of Shiki calling wearing his headphones rude, while she plays with her phone during their conversations which he deems also rude.

When Shiki talks, Neku generally only responds when he becomes irritated by her chatting, often because he views her actions as neglecting his feelings and boundaries. For example, when she took off Neku's shorts to fix his button against his will, despite his protests, or when she tells him he "can't mean that" or "can't do that" in attempts to be helpful, coming off as controlling to Neku instead.

Early on, he seems to show little regard for her, as he is even willing to kill her when the Reaper Uzuki Yashiro offered him a way out of the Game in exchange for doing so, although Neku did not truly want to do it or else he would be erased instead.

Despite the incident, Shiki continues to treat him the same and does her best to understand him. As time progresses, the two develop a friendship as they become closer and open up to each other. When they spot Eri, Shiki's best friend in the Realground who strangely looks exactly like her, Shiki starts to run from Neku, but he stops her and gets her to tell the truth about her past. Neku learns that she was not happy with who she was, and always felt jealous of Eri, so when she entered the game her entry fee was her appearance, teaching her that she shouldn't be jealous.

Through this experience, Shiki and Neku grow closer when he begins to sympathize with her. When they learn that only Shiki will move on to the RG, and that Neku must play the Game again, Shiki states that she will wait in front of Hachiko everyday until Neku returns.

There is some amount of irony at the beginning of the second week when Shiki is taken as Neku's entry fee. While this is a bluff on the part of the Conductor — because only the Composer can restore life to Players — Neku finds the entry fee credible enough to stake all of his efforts on Week 2 on getting Shiki back, which possibly strengthened his feelings for her. Shiki is highly embarrassed when she finds this out at the end of Week 3.

Mew's seam breaks and she asks him if they can go shopping together for materials to fix him. Neku first encounters Beat on Week 1, Day 2 where they get off to a rocky start. They meet again the next day, where Beat is reluctant to give them advice. Afterwards, they seem to be on good terms, and agree to work together for the rest of the week.

When Rhyme is erased the next day, Neku, Shiki and Hanekoma talk him out of fighting the shark Noise that attacked Rhyme. He joins the Reapers at the end of Day 7, surprising both Neku and Shiki. He attacks and overpowers them a number of times, but never brings himself to erase them.

Despite their misgivings, in one encounter Neku is compassionate enough to return Rhyme's pendant which Beat had dropped the previous day to him. At the start of the third week, Beat chooses to leave the Reapers to become Neku's partner and save him from certain demise being the only Player, Neku could not form a pact. As partners, the two become closer, and work together to survive the week, save Rhyme and attempt to dethrone the Composer.

During their time together, Neku learns more about Beat's background and why he is in the Reapers' Game. In the final battle, Beat states that he no longer sees Neku as a partner but as a friend.

Together, along with Shiki, they defeat Kitaniji in both his Noise forms. In the ending, Beat and Rhyme both meet up with Neku and Shiki by Hachiko, and the friends are reunited. Beat then later partners with Neku again in A New Day. At the end, Beat is shown to be panicked at Neku's sudden death. Neku first encounters Rhyme in Week 1 Day 2 along with her partner Beat, where they get off to a rocky start due to Neku's anti-social attitude.

They meet again the following day, where Shiki asks them about the mission. Beat finds the situation with Neku awkward and leaves after calling Neku a piece of dirt with Rhyme tagging along behind him. Later that day, Neku and Shiki fail to complete the mission, and just as all hope is lost and with seconds to spare, Beat and Rhyme complete the task.

Neku acts coldly and pretends not to be upset by the event, telling Shiki it is why he doesn't rely on anybody or want to forge relationships, as he ends up getting hurt. Rhyme appears later in the form of a squirrel Noise as a Pin that Neku can use to fight the Noise. Despite the two not being shown together much, the two are shown interacting well in the game's final scene.

Neku finds Joshua especially irritating, as he often teases him and his snobby attitude tends to get on Neku's nerves. However, Neku, motivated by his desire to bring Shiki back to life, does everything he can to put up with him for the week. Despite their many disagreements, Neku finds that he can — in a number of ways — relate to Joshua. They have similar views of society and the world, which often come up in their conversations.

This does gradually change however, as Neku's philosophy changes greatly over the course of their week together. During the few days where no missions are issued, they make frequent visits to Hanekoma and his cafe WildKat, where it is revealed that Joshua and Hanekoma have a long history with each other. Joshua claims to be searching for a way into the Shibuya River so that he can take on the Composer and gain complete control over it.

Neku eventually becomes incredibly distressed when he scans Joshua and sees flashbacks of him dying in front of the mural in Udagawa, leading him to accuse Joshua of being his killer. Joshua neither confirms nor denies this throughout the week, and there is a great deal of tension between the two for the remainder of time they have together.

On the seventh day, when they battle the Game Master, Sho Minamimoto , Neku sees another flashback which leads him to believe that it was actually Minamimoto who had murdered him. After defeating him, Minamimoto unleashes a level i flare, and Joshua pushes Neku out of harm's way and takes the brunt of the attack, seemingly erasing both Minamimoto and himself.

Neku deeply regrets that he never got to apologize to Joshua for accusing him of murdering him, and feels guilty for his death.

Allowed to play the Game one more time, Neku vows not to waste this chance which Joshua had managed to give him. In the final day of the third week, Joshua returns after the fight with Megumi Kitaniji's Noise form, shocking Neku.

Before they can talk to each other, Kitaniji absorbs Joshua and the final battle begins. Afterwards, Kitaniji is erased and Joshua reveals that he himself is the Composer and that everything that had transpired was part of a Game he had set up with Kitaniji - one that would ultimately decide the fate of Shibuya.

Wanting to erase Shibuya, Joshua chose Neku as a proxy to play the Game for him - and he had won. He also returns what is missing of Neku's memories, revealing that Joshua had indeed murdered Neku, just to send him into the game.

Joshua has one final Game with Neku - a duel, in which the winner becomes Composer and gets to decide Shibuya's fate. They both receive guns and Joshua begins a countdown for them to fire. Tearfully, an enraged Neku aims his gun and prepares to shoot — however, in the end, he cannot bring himself to kill a friend, and lowers his gun. Joshua, however, smiles coldly and shoots Neku, supposedly erasing him. Following the duel, Joshua has a change of heart and spares Shibuya, having observed the changes in Neku firsthand.

Neku then wakes up at the Scramble again, only to realize that he is back in the Realground. In the ending, Neku wishes to see Joshua again, hoping he will show up at Hachiko with everyone else. He states that while he can't forgive him, he trusts him. Joshua does not arrive however, and watches the friends from atop along with Hanekoma. Hanekoma is aware from the start of Neku's role as the Composer's proxy.

Sora later catches back up with Neku in the Fifth District, who is feeling some regret for betraying Sora. Always willing to forgive, Sora looks past it and presents Rhyme to him, hoping that he'll be able to jog her memory.

A giant Nightmare appears and Sora quickly defeats it. After that, Joshua appears and explains the nature of the Sleeping World to Neku. Neku disappears after being reunited with his Game partner Shiki with the help of Joshua. Later, Neku and Shiki are confronted by Spellican.

However, they are greatly outnumbered as more Dream Eaters arrive at the scene. After Sora appears to assist them, Neku introduces him to Shiki, but becomes embarrassed when he talks about how desperate he was to find her.

Joshua appears and explains they need to trap Spellican. As Sora and Shiki chase after Spellican, Neku tells Joshua that he considers him a friend as well and hopes to see him in Shibuya. While Sora fights of the powerful Dream Eaters summoned when Spellican is cornered, Neku helps take out the weak ones. When Spellican flees to Symphony of Sorcery , Neku is content to let Sora chase after it to finish the mission.

Neku and Shiki say once Sora is ready, he should come to visit them in Shibuya someday. Neku is a rather lanky teenager.

He has distinctive spiky orange hair and blue eyes. Neku wears a pair of purple colored headphones, with the tube-shaped white audio player hung around his neck. Neku wears a sleeveless, purple-grey shirt with a high collar that has a purple stripe going down the middle, with the stripe outlined in yellow. He wears white shorts, held up by a loose-fitting black belt. The shorts have two large pockets with purple stripes on top, the stripes also outlining a pair of yellow buttons on each pocket.

His shoes match the design of his shirt, purple-grey with a purple stripe outlined by yellow. The shoes have four yellow buttons with white straps that replace shoelaces. Neku sports a yellow sweatband on his left wrist. As a Player in the Reaper's Game, Neku is occasionally seen with a mission timer on his left hand.
