Kingdom Hearts IV

Well it cant be before, Nomura said a year has passed, that either refers to the remind timeskip or a new one

i highly doubt theyd do another skip after MoM

He confirmed in the interviews that it is after MoM and MoM is a year after KH3 so i'm sure he's referring to the same timeskip

But that doesn't make sense; if Sora has been in Quadratum for 7 days, but its a year after 3.

Yeah I just don't get why he wouldn't have worded that more clearly, but I guess he'd just assume we know what he means, I seriously doubt it too

Oh and actually isn't he only 15 in KH3 still? It doesn't take a year between 2 and 3

Theres only one thing I can think of

so he's only 16/17 now

Sora got the shot kicked out of him so* ****hard* by Yozora that he was in a coma for a year BEFORE showing up in Quadratum.

Something like that or, the fight with yozora somehow took a year to happen

There are multiple ways around that. We don't know when exactly that yozora fight happens but we know sora's been gone a year. fight could have happened right after he disappeared and he was in crystal stasis until he was sent to quadratum and woke up in quadtratum with 7 days missing or he could have been in TFW stasis until yozora fight and the fight leads directly into 7 days of sleep

Either way Sora got rekt

yeah lol

just saying that whatever the case is, he eventually gets sent to Quadratum after MoM and is in sleep for 7 days

so it's not 2 year gap, just 1. and he's still 15 in kh3 iirc so he'd only be 16, maybe closing in on 17

He was stuck in Dark Final World for a year before ending up in Quadratum

Yes you're right about the age- I checked lol I swear I got Mandela effects'd I thought he was 15 in 1

So I am guessing it's KH3 Remind > One year timeskip > Yozora fight > MoM > Sora wakes up 7 days after in Quadratum

nah thats riku haha

yep exactly

Switch between MoM and Yozora fight, no idea what comes first

But something like that at least

yeah we dont have specifics but its laid out generally like that

I was so pissed when I read the KH3 Manga. The Yozora encounter literally goes like

"Sora drew his weapon, but the fight was over before it even began."

"SoRrY' bUt I dOn,T lOsE."

*Novel, not manga

oh, but that reminds me. sora just falls asleep/faint of exhaustion in the winning scene right?

Nah, he ends up back in final world

But a brighter one

No he's chilling- that's the Leon fight in KH1

oh gotcha. hmmm

cause nomura kinda hints at winning still being the canon one

in one of the interviews

he basically just says "we only added the losing scene because we knew people would be losing and it's a nice treat still"

I am guessing Sora was going to turn into a crystal at some point, Yozora winning made it happen faster

Someone data mined 3 semi recent and apparently the winning ending file is labeled as "True Ending", or something.

Makes sense, winning gets you the Dylan Sprouse credit, and the Oath To Return gimmick.
