NEW FEATURES

 

YOUTUBE PLAYLISTS

 

Many of you have requested that we include more Kingdom Hearts music in our pages (original soundtrack or fan-made), and we are glad to say that we have started to make our Twitter, Tumblr and YouTube pages more musical! On our YouTube channel we have a completed original soundtrack playlist as well as a fan-made KH music playlist which we will be updating regularly and posting about on Twitter and Tumblr. If you have any suggestions of fan-made KH themed music videos on YouTube feel free to message us and we’ll add it to the playlist at some point. Please let us know what you think of the playlists so far!

These two playlists are just the beginning; there other possibilities of playlists on YouTube that we can go forward with in the future so we’d like to hear your ideas and see what is popular enough to go forward with.

These aren’t just features for KH13 to post about; we’d like to get fans involved as well, through comments and discussion about the features as they appear on the website, Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook, etc. What is your opinion about the features on the KH13 pages? We are open to hear what you like or dislike about the current features, and if you have any ideas of new features feel free to message them and we will consider using them.

Not trying to be rude here but I always thought some of the birthday posts were a little silly. Maybe only include the important characters and leave out the rest?

 

I mean how many people honestly care about this for example?

#BDayKH Happy 78th birthday to Jo Anne Worley who is the original voice actress of Wardrobe in #KingdomHearts II!

The birthday feature for one isn't supposed to be that huge, just something to post on to give credit for the people who helped contribute to the Kingdom Hearts series. While I agree only important important people should be noted for the feature, if you think about it all of them made very huge contributions to the series. Imagine the wardrobe voice actor not being in KH, how would it turn out? It could sound potentially different in KH2 or it may have been hard to get all voice recordings for the game to help it be complete. You gotta think of the small things instead of thinking "Oh they didnt do anything but voice act, who cares? I only care for Nomura and Tai Yasue!"

I think we can establish that by looking at the number of likes and retweets the post has gotten.

Hey.

The birthday posts are a popular part of our regular posts alongside anniversaries and music posts, and it's good to show acknowledgement to those who worked with the series who many fans may not know about. Our plan is to continue posting about the different people who have contributed to the Kingdom Hearts series on Tumblr and Twitter, (whether they had big or small roles) but I think for our Facebook page we are going to start only posting 'important' birthdays like main characters or actors/actresses with high profiles or who have contributed a lot to the series (Haley Joel Osment, Mark Hamill, Corey Burton as examples).
