Besides fire, ice, and thunder, what elemental magic would you like to see return in Kingdom Hearts IV?

I would love to see more of the Water magic spells. It works well against Thunder-based enemies in Final Fantasy, so why not keep the trend going in Kingdom Hearts as well?

I'd kinda like to see Water used more. KH has always been kinda halfway with its implementation, although maybe that's because FF has also been back-and-forth on it, never making it as much a staple as fire/ice/lightning. I get where ice technically accounts for it, but it's weird how BBS goes and gives Terra earth moves like quake and meteor and the only water move Aqua gets is that Bubble Blaster shotlock. She doesn't even get a water command style. So with the inclusion of water as Grand Magic in KH3, let's go ahead and make it a staple. lol It'll work well if Aqua, Kairi, or Xion are ever playable again, too.

It'd also be cool to see other underutilized elements like earth. For being so thematically important, light's pretty underused, too, imo. Terra and Riku get plenty of dark moves, so let's get more light moves. Light Firaga!

Kairi appears to focus on Light elemental magic so hopefully we'll see more of that in KH4. I can imagine Strelitzia using it too.

Good point, especially with Mickey being playable. I know there were instances of party members and escort characters (like Minnie) using light in the past games, but it'd be cool to see playable characters use it more, even if it's not worked in as a common spell. I'm pretty sure Riku had a Dark Firaga variation of Grand Magic in KH3, so maybe Mickey will get something similar (I'm not actually expecting a Light Firaga though. ). It's been a while since I've played Remind, so I actually can't remember if Kairi had any GM-type light moves right now, haha
