Okay, there seems to be a lot of misinformation here. First off, Ventus has nothing to do with Sora being able to wield the Keyblade. Secondly, the first Keyblade Sora got was Riku's. The Keyblade chose Sora over Riku because Riku had given into the darkness, and Sora's heart was stronger than Riku's. Third, Roxas and Sora use the same Keyblade (they take turns), but when Xion died, Roxas was able to awaken Ventus's heart and gain access to his Keyblade as well. This ability transferred back into Sora when they recombined. So fourth, Sora is using Riku's stolen Keyblade and Ventus's borrowed Keyblade. And he is doing this DESPITE the fact that he was never actually chosen to be a Keyblade wielder in the first place.

It makes me wonder what the standard training world is gonna be. Maybe it'll be the Mirage Arena again. : I mean, Nomura only said "no old Disney worlds", and Mirage Arena isn't one. And since Eraqus and Xehanort have some kind of history with that place, perhaps Yen Sid does, too.

YouTube blocks the videos when they're "clean", ie. without any changes. If you download them, they're perfect quality so dont be put off. Really? Cool. Thanks for the response.

Any particular reason why the first video is slowed down and the second video is titled? It's kinda grating, to say the least. :

You're wrong. In the Trinity Archive of Final Mix, the secret cutscene's title was "A fragmented passage". So, "Birth by Sleep --Volume 2--" IS the title for the next game, unless Nomura decides to change it.

Hasn't Xemnas always looked like Terra? I mean, Terra was modeled off of Xemnas, just younger. : Although, the bigger question here is why is Ansem so much more tan than Xemnas, considering he spends all of his time in the darkness?

It would also make sense since the bell tower looked completely different from the one in Traverse Town. Plus, it was day time. >_>

He does know the lines Sora and Riku say are actual spoken lines from the first game, right? : Why didn't he just use those? Also "Riku" needs to fix his mic. >__>

No, the cutscene with Axel and Saix in that scan is the scene where Saix tells Axel to eliminate the traitors in Castle Oblivion. But they made it an in-game cutscene in the final version. The quotes say: Axel: Is that really what Lord Xemnas said? and Saix: We think a member at Castle Oblivion might betray us.

Yeah, Nomura confirmed a while ago that Lea and Braig would return, since they're so important. The others, I dunno; it would make some sense if they did, but I doubt that they would have very important roles. Pretty much just cameos to show that they've got their hearts, and their lives, back. And Master Xehanort isn't the one that's going to return (at least not immediately), Terra-Xehanort's the one that's going to be revived, since Xemnas and "Ansem" were his Nobody and Heartless. After he does revive, then I can see Sora saving Terra from Xehanort by splitting them in half somehow; this would revive Master Xehanort.

I like, "Do you want to scream?" Also, gay jokes are dumb since he's obviously straight. >_> It's not his fault his hair's pink; blame Nomura.

Because that castle was Hollow Bastion. >_> Hollow Bastion is Ansem's castle, which Maleficent took over. Villain's Vale is just a castle Maleficent built there herself afterward. So Sora saw the castle, and remembered that he was just there like a couple months ago, then ran off to see Leon.

I think one's the cover, and the other's the first page.

lol Tokyopop. It's actually the TokyoGameShow. But, yeah, hopefully Re:coded will be pretty beast. Looks really good so far.

THE TIMELINE: ~Birth by Sleep ~Kingdom Hearts 1 ~Chain of Memories ~358/2 Days ~Kingdom Hearts 2 ~Coded ~3D ~??? ~Kingdom Hearts 3 Also, for the last time, these games aren't filler; they're only side-stories meant to fill in the gaps in the timeline, and explain some of the series mysteries.

1) None of these games are fillers. They're side stories. 2) The delay of KH3 is due to VS XIII taking forever to make. >_> 3) More games mean more plot expansion, which is always good. Plus there's still some mysteries left to be solved, which these new games will probably answer.

Would some of this "more content" you mentioned happen to be the boss fights? Just wondering. ^_^

Blue eyes are cool in Japan. Also Riku's eyes are green. Although, honestly, it's hard to tell since he's been drawn with both colors. Also, Ansem has orange eyes, and he's a main character.

She should have dual wielded. >_>

We do. It was changed like that in the Japanese version as well. Go check the Birth by Sleep video section. Those scenes you mentioned were changed before the game's release to take place in different worlds.

Lol, I actually checked the forums just to see where I was supposed to ask this question. I didn't feel like making a whole topic for it. X) Also, thanks for the update. And good luck with the rest of your video updates.

I've noticed an error with the videos on the Birth by Sleep section. The english videos, when I click to download, link back to the main page. I'm aware that most videos don't have download links yet, so perhaps in order to update the list, the already existent download links were taken down temporarily to accommodate the change.

Isn't there another convention in December? Might be shown then. If not, probably not until 2011.

Apparently, they are getting a couple new things. Probably not anything much, but still....

Actually, in the American version, you don't have to rebeat the final boss. Just resave on a new file, and the collected reports will get added to the Trinity Archive. You'll then get a red block that says you've unlocked the Final Episode.
