the 1 sora fights, maybe thats its first time appearing

but small versions of quadratum heartless may exist

if they dont, why would yozora need all the skills he has

and dont say "to save sora"

They picked Darkside for the trailer because he's the most iconic Heartless design in the entire series. That's literally why Sora is fighting him specifically.

How would Heartless exist without Darkness? Y’know, the thing they’re literally made of?

if I drew 2 dots on a piece of paper. 1 was black, and 1 was black with 0.00001% white added

both by normal vision would be 2 equal black dots

however there is a very minimal difference that makes them not identical

KH heartless vs entities in quadratum

😶

the ones from quadratum may be formed differently, not be connected to each other

heartless thrive via darkness, quadratum enemies may thrive from something else

but depict the same appearance

so taken that into consideration its possible enemies have existed for X amount of time in quadratum, but there are now stronger enemies appearing due to what is going on

light/dark, good/evil same thing different words

Alright, fine, let’s run with the idea that Quadratum has its’ own evil entities running around. One, they would not look remotely like Heartless. Two, they would not be comparable to Heartless as they are not beings of darkness. Three, Yozora is not equipped to handle otherworldly entities, his weapons are energy based not magic.

These “demons”, as you call them, would be a different species from Heartless, and would need to be categorized and combated differently.

Exactly.

they could/could not look like heartless

its 50/50

im thinking the story will go basically sora knows what he is fighting the giant heartless, and is familiar then someone tells him its new to them but ends up explaining their own enemies they have in the world, and how they started evolving/changing after sora arrived

if heartless come from darkness, what happens to a "demon" once darkness is introduced to it

in any scenario there is always a strong possibility the smaller enemies mimic the appearance of heartless in KH

even if they are not heartless

and for yozora

he may not be equipped for heartless, but he may be equipped for his own realities enemies

pretty sure soras power would be able to defeat any entity

+ we can assume magic/abilities exist in quadratum. Simply because across KH, FF, Etc magic exists. doubt quadratum is the odd 1 out who doesnt have it

I am providing a lot of credibility to my theory

not my fault you disagree with it being possible

Not really. Nothing you’ve said has basis in anything but your headcanon

any assumptions are headcanon

its 50/50. quadratum has enemies prior to kh4, or they dont

then its 50/50 if they are similar, or 100% entirely different

no theory is correct, or statement correct without more evidence which probably wont get answered until it releases

If we assume the Verum Rex game accurately portrays what Quadratum is like, then their native enemy is the Gigas, which look nothing like Heartless or any other enemy type from KH. They’re machines, so Yozora’s kit reflects his ability to combat that type of enemy.

Because this is supposed to be world with realism, Nomura had the people react the way we would do in real life if we saw an alien-like thing out of nowhere who is huge and capable of killing us

So yes

Everyone was scared shitless because this does not happen LMFAOOOOOO

Sci-fi Tokyo and mans still running around with the Google Pixel lmao

Agreed

we'll just have to wait and see what story nomura spins

Lmfao bruh for real

World’s got giant robots and technomancy and you’re still running around with a basic phone and wearing business casual? Couldn’t be me lmao
