Master Keeper

There is no such thing as a keyblade of the realm inbetweenIf you were to return the reports of Dream Drop Distance, you would find that there are only three types of keyblades within the series: keyblade of light, dark and hearts
I appreciate the efforts on making the video, but I totally disagree with the whole theory.
Way to Dawn, as much as it represents the road inbetween the two sides of light and dark, it ended up being a keyblade from the realm of light. Now, since Master Riku has already passed that phase of resisting the darkness and overcoming it, and since he had a keyblade from the realm of light, then it would be a dumb move for Master Riku to return back to a keyblade made from the inbetween (supposing that such thing exists) and its even worse to have a keyblade from the realm of darkness.
What am I trying to say here? And what is my thoughts of such keyblade since it has the same keychain of both Kingdom Keys? Well, according to the reports and according to King Mickey, since Kingdom Key D represents the reflection of Kingdom Key L of Sora’s and since the reports mention that there are only three types of keyblades, it leads me to one and only one thing for thing new keyblade of Master Riku’s, it’s the Kingdom Key of Hearts “Kingdom Key H” and it’s the third reflection of both Kingdom Keys of Sora’s and Mickey’s.
It would also make much more sense for such keyblade to be the one because it has the same keychain and since we haven’t seen any keyblade of hearts that represents the Kingdom Key until now, then that makes this one the last type of keyblades to exist. Besides, what could be stronger than joining the Dawn and then joining the light? It’s obviously the heart, Hearts are what makes these worlds live until today, the heart of children, the source of the lux of all worlds, and who knows? Maybe it’s the key that could lead us to the actual Kingsom Hearts that fell into darkenss long time ago (according to MX in KH3D) and maybe Master Riku took it from the remnants of the original Kingdom Hearts during his journey for finding Master Aqua within the Realm of Darkness. Regardless, I know one thing, since Master Riku has experienced darkness, Dawn and the light, then the only best challenge to experience right now is to accept the source of all lights, the heart.

I remember Nomura mentioning some mixing between both Summon and D-Link in last interviews, and here is is! “Link” at last!
I do agree with how it represents Sora’s link to all of his past friends and party members.
As much it saddens me to see those classical characters to turn into Links rather than having their own worlds to visit, but I do understand the circumstances and I would love to see many different classical and modern Disney characters like:
- Jack Skellington (represents dark element) (not to mention that the world is already confirmed to not to return in KHIII)
- Bolt (represents electricity element) (new character from new movie)
- Mulan (represents fire element) (no reason for the return of Land of Dragons cuz Mulan II isn’t worth bringing to be honest)
- Olaf/Elsa (represents blizzard/ice element) (highly wanted movie for KHIII and it would be cool to have a Link from it after finishing the world)
 
Since Ariel represents the water element, then it would be interesting to have other characters with different elements similar to Final Fantasy summons except with Disney characters

9 disney worlds you say ... okay lets see,
 
1) Mount Olympus (Hercules 1997)
2) Kingdom Of Corona (Tangled 2010)
3) Sanfransokyo (Big Hero 6 2014)
4) Galaxy Toys (Toy Story 1995, 1999, 2010, 2019)
5) Monstropolis (Monster's Inc 2001,2013) 
 
and for the rest 
 
6) Arendelle (Frozen)
7) GAME CENTRAL (Wreck it Ralph)
8) The Jungle Book (Was meant to be in BBS)
9) Treasure Planet (Was meant to be in DDD)

I know some people might disagree but personally, i think the reason why Xaldin was chosen to antagonize Beast in Kingdom Hearts II instead of Gaston is because Gaston is more Belle's enemy then Beast's, in the original Beauty and the Beast film, Gaston only set out to kill the Beast because he was jealous of how the Beast at that point had earned Belle's affection, so basically, its not that he had anything personal against the Beast other then being judgmental against his outer looks and his love for Belle, he just wanted to kill Beast because of the connection between both him and Belle had made during the film, however, Xaldin served more of Beast's personal enemy, since he set out to antagonize the Beast wholeheartedly, Xaldin pushed Beast's buttons too far and Beast even mentioned Xaldin's name as a sign of the latter's antagonism against both Beast and those he loves, know what i mean? so yeah, i just want to ask this question, what do you think? is Gaston more Belle's enemy and Xaldin more Beast's enemy?

Good morning, afternoon and evening everyone wherever you are
Hope you're doing great
​Was roaming KH13, commenting and thinking of different futuristic ideas, until I had this awesome idea that I would like to share!

​Before I start, I just wanna point out that if some of you are tired of reading, no worries! You could skip to the bold part below for the whole point of the thread  

​We have probably played Birth by Sleep and Kingdom Hearts I by now since they've been released on three different consoles already 
​
​One of those elements that I personally miss and I bit many of you miss it too from Kingdom Hearts I, was the collectables... No no not Ansem's Reports and not even the shards and gems for Moogle's synthesization, I was actually referring to the trinities and Dalmatians 

The idea of searching for hidden treasures that include those Dalmatians, the fact that each time we find new puppies we get their stamps on the Dalmatians' Note and all the different abilities that you get to learn in order to use new colors of trinities.
​Those were the collectables that  made me personally to return to all the worlds over and over again just to make sure that I didn't miss any of those collectables. Unfortunately though, those types of collectables were lost on the shadows after KH and it's not until Fragmentary Passage that we had a small taste of similar collectables when we started collecting the flowers in Enchanted Dominion, extraordinary gems from Dwarves Woodlands and even the Lingering Memories.

​Not sure if I was the only one, but wouldn't you guys want such collectables to make it back in Kingdom Hearts III? Now that we have bigger worlds to explore, I find it as a great opportunity for them to bring back the collectables and even much more variety of collectables than KHI and KH0.2 

What does any of this has to do with Birth by Sleep Master Keeper!?!?!?!?
​Ok ok I am coming to that....

​Now, in BBS, we have visited this world called Deep Space, and it was yet another world to be mostly a creation from Square Enix's imagination, similar to The Underworld in Olympus Coliseum, Monstro from Prankster's Paradise and Disney Castle/Town as a whole.
Some of us liked that imagination of Lilio & Stitch's World and some of us thought that it was lame and boring, we all know by now that Stitch landed in Radiant Garden somehow, thus, we can't certainly be sure whether Square Enix intended to make Stitch to land in Radiant Garden instead of Hawaii and whether they wanted Radiant Garden to be his main homeworld like many others.
However, let us just ASSUME for a moment that Square Enix found its way (as always) to make Stitch head into Hawaii by the events of Kingdom Hearts III
Wouldn't it be interesting for Sora to visit Hawaii and meet more lovable characters from the movie?

​You might be asking by now, what does Hawaii/ Deep Space has to do with the collectables?

​Here comes the awesome part 

​Imagine Sora visiting Hawaii with the movie events to partially happen. During Jumba's arrival all of his experiments' eggs fell on the space and Jumba would ask Sora to fix this problem by collecting all of those experiments that were scattered to different worlds.
​With that, we would have a very reasonable collectables to start collecting in KHIII, similar to the Dalmatians, we could either find them inside treasures or to simply find the eggs themselves with each of them to have its own experimental number
​Jumba would also give you a notebook that includes all the experiments, and every time you find a new egg, you would stamp the experimental number on that note. How awesome would that be!? I can imagine it happening and believe me it might become the best type of collectables to ever happen in KH series
​
This idea could also open up for more optional bosses, for example, maybe some of the eggs by crashing the land would get hatched and we would find some resistance from some of them and they can only be controlled by fighting them!

​I can see it happening! What do you guys think? Would you like for such collectables to return? And would the experiments' eggs be a great type of collectables? What're  your thoughts!?  


 

I don’t see why people would complain about the fact that it looks like a maze with boring explorations.
It’s not like it’s the first word to have different puzzles and exploration parts on Kingdom Hearts I, Wonderland’s room and Agrabah’s cavern are both examples of places that include maze/exploration/puzzleish feelings
The gameplay itself wasn’t that bad when you get used to it either

I would love to see Jack Skellington as a summon for the reason that you have mentioned
Having Auron, 2B and Neku would be great additions from other Square Enix series
As for Olaf and Rex, they feel like they were meant to be Links one day, I can easily see them turning into Link that we can summon.
 
Additional to those, I would love to see Bolt, Aladdin’s Carpet, and Hades. YES Hades, why? I will tell you why:
Ever since Ariel appeared in the trailer, I always remember my first glimpse where I thought she was Shiva from Final Fantasy and even now when I look at Ariel, I feel those Shiva vibes from her with her bluish colorations all over her body which made me think, since Final Fantasy has its own elemental monsters to summon, like Ifrit for fire, Shiva for ice, Ramuh for thunder and so on, why can’t Kingdom Hearts make its own elemental Links except with Disney characters and since Ariel has already taken Shiva’s/Levithan’s spot and my wishlist character Bolt has taken Ramuh’s spot for thunder/electricity then that would make the fire spot to be empty, and who would be a perfect crazy fire dude with blasting blaze when getting angry similar to Ifrit? No one but Hades for sure, he is the underworld god that could burn the field with his hands similar to Ifrit and I think that he would be a great Link for Kingdom Hearts III
 
Besides, adding a villain into ur Link would be a unique movement that we don’t see so often in Kingdom Heats series, the only time we have actually had a villainy summon/D-Link were Maleficent and Pete from Birth by Sleep and of course Vanitas is out of the picture since he is a unique D-Link that can only be used in the final battle, so yeah! Great opportunity for some change

I think I mostly based my order on what I think is most likely to get in, but here we go.
 
1. Probably Treasure Planet It makes me happy how much support this movie has to be in the game. I have not seen the movie since it came out but I remember liking it quite a bit and I'm sure I would love it even more if I saw it now.
2. The Jungle Book Was planned on being in multiple KH games and even the TV show before it was scrapped. It's about time it finally showed up. We have not had a jungle level in quite a while and I think it would look lovely in KH3.
3. Probably a tie between Lilo and Stitch and The Princess and the Frog. Lilo and Stitch was in BBS but it was only based on the first few minutes of the movie so we did not get to meet Lilo, and she's one of the best Disney characters ever! The Princess and the Frog is a great movie that if it does not get into KH3, it better get into KH4. It just has so much potential with the characters and a boss fight with the main villain would be amazing.
 
Honorable Mention(s)- Moana very unlikely to happen in this installment due to when it came out which is why I put it in honorable mentions (wished it came out earlier) but it's my favorite of the Revival era so far and it just screams KH. It seemed like it was made for it, even more so than Frozen. I hope it somehow shows up, either as a summon or something. Also one of the TV shows would be pretty great, but that's more likely for one of the "side" games. 

Treasure Planet,Agrabah and Pirates of the Caribbean .

Treasure Planet, Game Central Station (Wreck-It-Ralph) and Agrabah (Aladdin and the King of Thieves)

Team Jim Hawkins
 
Treasure Planet
 
Jungle Book 
 
Wreck-it-Ralph

Treasure Planet
 
Atlantis: the Lost Empire
 
Wreck-It Ralph

My top three picks would have to be:
Treasure Planet (A possible world name would be Montressor Spaceport, since that's the main hub area where one goes to different areas of the galaxy, and it would be a pathway to the final area of that world, which would be Treasure Planet itself!) Atlantis: The Lost Empire (Atlantis is just fine, it's self explanatory. Or it could be called The Lost Empire, so as to not draw comparisons to Atlantica, since Atlantis and Atlantica are almost similar in lettering.) Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (Instead of Port Royal, I think this time the world would be called The Caribbean, to emphasize the different areas one would visit should we come back to this world!)

What would your guys' top 5 links be for KH3? The first four can be anything related to Disney (and I mean so far as Studio Ghibli), and the fifth can be Square Enix related.
 
1. Kiki (Kiki's Delivery Service): I've only seen snippets of the actual movie in elementary school, so I had to Google it. I was thinking maybe she could use exploding delivery packages, along with normal magic spells.
 
2. Rex (Toy Story): Let's be real, you all want him to use his head so he can say that he doesn't want to use his head.
 
3. Jack Skellington: Since we're not going to Halloween Town, I've decided that he can just be a link if it makes him feel any better. Maybe upgrade his Limit from KH2.
 
4. Spider Man: Yes, him. Like I said, anything Disney related. I say give him his stuff from Marvel vs. Capcom along with some new stuff.
 
5. Auron: Out of all the Limits in KH2, Bushido was my-second favorite (losing only to Riku's Session, obviously). We need the man back with this Limit!
 
Honorable Mentions:
 
-Maui (Moana): Prob'ly too new, even for a link.
 
-Flik (A Bug's Life): Not sure how I'd feel about Flik growing several inches. At least Tinkerbell managed to fight well for her size.
 
-Fei Fong Wong (Xenogears): He looks and prob'ly plays cool, but might induce PTSD to those who are familiar with you-know-who180.
 
-Olaf (Frozen): People will just complain, mostly because it's Frozen.
 
-Lightning McQueen (Cars): How would McQueen work in battle, anyway, even with magic? Skidding down enemies or something?
 
-Adam Jensen (Deus Ex): Eidos may not allow this, and neither may Disney for that matter.
 
-Neku (TWEWY): I mostly just want Traverse Town back, so I can have Neku and Shiki in my party and use Mr. Mew in a Limit. SQUARE PLZ
 
-2B (Nier: Automata): She'd make an awesome Link partner, no doubt, but Disney would prob'ly want her toned down because Disney.
 
What're your guys' ideas for Links?

Good morning, afternoon and evening everyone wherever you are
Hope you're doing great

A note before I start explaining Terra's location, the members of the organization that appeared in Dream Drop Distance were simply time travelers and they weren't actually existing from the first place (as young Xehanort said, he gathered different forms of himself from different timelines to attend at this day, referring to the events of 3D), they were merely a distraction while the actual forms are somewhere else.
 
​Now, as the nature of the series goes, since both Ansem and Xemnas were defeated, then Xehanort (the one with Terra's body and MX's heart or Terranort) has already revived somewhere and my guess is that he had revived in Radiant Garden before the others, which explains why he wasn't there when the others were awakening. 
 
​Because Master Xehanort (the old coot) cannot exist separately since he is part of Terra right now and as I said, the MX that appeared in 3D was a time traveler but not the real self because the real self wouldn't live an additional 10 years to see the futuristic keyblade war (as what he has said in BBS)
 
​Thus, Terra is still trapped within the control of MX's heart and he is still part of Xehanort somewhere in the realm of light if not inbetween.  
 

I don’t see why people would complain about the fact that it looks like a maze with boring explorations.
It’s not like it’s the first word to have different puzzles and exploration parts on Kingdom Hearts I, Wonderland’s room and Agrabah’s cavern are both examples of places that include maze/exploration/puzzleish feelings
The gameplay itself wasn’t that bad when you get used to it either

I never “hated” any KH world, I just dislike the fact that it was wasted on a song mini game when it’s an action rpg game
The problem wasn’t only here, the whole under the sea exploration part was removed and they simply skipped all the locations that lead to the throne of King Triton and above all of that, the story doesn’t add anything and simply feels like re telling of the same storyline of KHI except with the continuation and with more characters.
It would’ve been much better for Atlantica to have similar feels as KHI’s with better combat and control usages
I personally enjoyed Atlantica in both KHI and Chain of Memories and felt that they were amazing to explore and play within.
 
I don’t know about your thoughts regarding Ariel’s appearance in KHIII, whether she would be just a summon from a random world or a summon from her world, I would warmly welcome Atlantica’s return ONLY if it were like a normal world that we can explore
 
As for Chain of Memories question, it was a nice world to explore. You would play as Sora on his normal form instead of his mermaid form for storyline reasons but nevertheless, playing on that world felt different in Chain of Memories and I would highly recommend for you to play the game and reach there

Idk if anyone’s said this yet but do you think we haven’t seen Big Hero 6 yet bc it’s more than just that?
What if Shibuya is a district in the city and TWEWY is a world within a world like Timeless River?
 
I’d love that tbh and it makes sense.

I don't know I don't think that could be Riku's new Keyblade, but it could be I don't know it just looks like the most laziest design of any of the Keyblades like it feels like some kind of a placeholder of a Keybalde, but with that in mind why wouldn't they just use the Way to Dawn Keyblade.  I'm just on the fence about this keyblade is all.  The renders of all these characters and all these scenes are amazing I can't wait for more.

Am I the only one who prefers Road to Dawn?

Vanitas has a heart of pure darkness, so it could be possible that he doesn’t need Xehanort’s heart in order to fulfill the role within the Seekers of DarknessMaybe the reason on why he is wearing the coat is because of the fact that he is hiding a new type of armor inside it? And it was meant to be a surprise for us to figure out while playing?Personally, I find the coat to look awesome on him for a change instead of having him to appear with the same red armor again like many times in Birth by Sleep
Considering that Nomura has mentioned that the faces of the Seekers of Darkness would be shocking, then yes I truly believe that some new members could actually make their appearance or at least different versions of previous unexpected characters

ok while i personally will let it slide for now as we do not have too much DETAIL as to what happened EXACTLY but sora was shown to have gotten roxas memories at the end of dream drop distance so he should know marluxia even if just barely sense he left soon after roxas joined the organization. the other thing to mention is that this has not been brought up sense he got the memories sense the only game we have after dream drop distance is 0.2 and that focused on aqua so again we do not have details on what he got from roxas.
 

Yeah Two Pixar Worlds should be Enough until the next Saga in the Kingdom Hearts Series (Besides We can save the Rest of the Pixar Movies for the Next Saga of Kingdom Hearts and Marvel and Star Wars and all of the Rest of the Disney Animated Movies that didn't make it to the Game Series.)
