Recoded is actually important to the Naminé plotline...

Re:coded is often remembered as the game that "doesn't matter" or "skipable" but I always disagreed that it has purpose like showing that a data version of Sora— a version everyone thought Sora was could handle hurt. It's something that was proven wrong by the actual Sora.

However, I noticed something even more interesting and that has to do with Naminé and COM.

During Halloween Bastion part 2 when you're helping Riku recover, you have this moment from the Novel since it's easier to follow than the game.

It is implied that the person who added data was the person who had the journal's data represent Riku.

The reason this is a big deal is because it is Naminé— if she added extra data inside you about hurt and then she chose Riku to be the person who represented the Data it leaves the question to why.

I often wondered why is it a Data version of Riku. It struck me as oh Soriku and we have these cute moments, but there is a deeper meaning. In Chain of Memories we learn that Naminé replaces Sora's memory of his important people one is Riku (and the other is Kairi).

Since Naminé knew how special Riku is to Sora, it would make sense for her to pick Riku as the person to represent the Journal's Data.

I also want to add that his appearance is the exact same one as how Riku looked at the end of Chain of Memories as he still had short hair at that time, but had the Organization Coat on.

Naminé knew Riku was special to Sora as she took memories of him and planted herself in place as you couldn't take memories from nothing. It's kinda like in a lot of "magic" type things you have to have something of equivalent value.

Then in Re:Coded it is also revealed that everything that's happening in the journal's data is revolved around Sora.

So who is picked to represent the data's data again — Data Riku. Meaning his world revolves around Sora and they're deeply connected.

Recoded anniversary was yesterday and I missed it. It's the game that had so many precious Soriku moments.

Data Riku saves Sora after being unarmed.

Data Sora saves Riku after getting kidnapped and then goes into his data to help bring him back.

Data Riku tries to apologize for everything but Sora won't have it because he loves him and wants to help Riku regardless.

I love how the fandom as a whole all agrees the ending of recoded didn't happen. Why did they have to lose the memories. Why couldn't they just be silly and hang out whenever?

Data Sora & Data Riku are not the same as the other Riku and Sora by the way. Data Sora is also able to face hurt while the other Sora isn't. The reason for this is because Data Sora is what people think he is supposed to be like, but it's not actually what he is like.

However, it's one of the masks the other Sora has so people assume it's accurate which is why Sora couldn't handle hurt but the data version could. Sora uses smiles to pretend he's okay because he feels like he has to show everyone he is okay when in reality he isn't. He would rather everyone else be okay than himself.

Anyways I love Data Sora and Riku, they're so cute on screen. And I just love their little interactions.
