It's not traverse town because of the Heart shaped moon...

We've been over this before- it's my backyard

I'd have to say that's... Hollow Bastion? But I really don't know.

You're still wondering this 12 years later?

Don't you mean "years"? If so, yes.

Looks like Traverse Town. Doubt it would be Hollow Bastion,

 

It could possibly be London, Neverland, but I always thought of the world as Traverse Town imo.

Too many buildings for both and neither have a heart shaped moon.

The heart shaped moon doesn't even show up at all in Kingdom Hearts.

 

Of course it shows up in Kingdom Hearts II, but that's in TWTNW. The true Kingdom Hearts showed up at the Keyblade Graveyard, but I doubt Nomura would come up with that world back in 2002.

 

Honestly, It's just artwork. The Moon is placed in the front cover to get the consumer interested. *Spots a heart shaped moon* "What's this game?" And thus, a KH fan was born.

I think they are in The World That Never Was. Even though it's not in the game, I believe that's where they are. Like a teaser of what's to come, a look at the future.

1.5 launch poster confirms as traverse town. Possibly unseen part or early concept Nomura liked.

It doesn't confirm anything

If you look at the poster a little more has been added a neon sign says traverse town on it.

I'm gonna go a little "Flaming Lea" here, and that is definitely Traverse Town in the background.

 

--For example, the heart-shaped moon in the previous game’s key visual showed up this time as the Kingdom Hearts. Did you think of doing this right from the start?

 

Nomura: No, I didn’t. I asked Nojima (Nojima Kazushige) to write KHII’s scenario and in his scenario it was written that the Kingdom Hearts Xemnas created is “like a moon that floats in the World that Never Was.” When I read that, I thought “Oh, this can be connected!” (laugh) so I made it to look like the moon in the previous game’s key visual. The World that Never Was has the “Dark City” right from the beginning of the game’s development and since then its background is night. That’s why when Nojima-san wrote that Xemnas was creating Kingdom Hearts in the sky, coincidentally he wrote “it looks like a moon” but I thought it got connected by destiny.

 

Peace!

My bad not a sign. Its engraved in stone look at Roxas' feet. "Trav"http://33.media.tumblr.com/f6c7218d6264b1be3f87ca930cf698b3/tumblr_mxp8jxR4nX1szv4zio1_500.png

You guys are thinking about this too much. It's probably just some art Nomura cooked up while getting all his ideas out and not meant to represent anything we actually know. 

It's not traverse town because of the Heart shaped moon...

 

i do always ask me where is this palce...maybe is something like a "previous version of what now is traverse town"

i would like to see this world in game and stay on that gargoyle like a boss or maybe is the real inside of kingdom hearts, a city where the lost hearts are asleep?
