Wow... You're telling ME to read? I said IF IT WAS THE OP's QUESTION, then NO they're not the same. Plus I'm not really in denial or not... Whether they're related to each other or not wont kill KH for me I assure you, and what you're saying doesn't even disprove anything, that's like saying xemnas can't possibly be related to SOD because they have different hair styles... The eyes for anti-black definately suggest he's a dream eater nightmare, I'm not debating that at all,I'm saying the red eyes heartless and anti-black coat may be CONNECTED to each other in someway. The coat being a similar colour because of darkness is a bad reason if true, why isn't SOD's robes like that then? Their battle music have that similar rhythm too, (unless I'm hearing things), so clearly there is some support to say they're connected, but whether it's true, no one knows. The theory it could be vanitas can be just as true, the dream eater may criticise it to a point, but not 100%.

I never said they were the same, but if they were the same was the OP's question then, no they're not. Whether they're linked or not, no one can say, theres some things to suggest they are, but thats all it is, suggestions.

Just cause everyone says the same thing doesnt make it true. (Not that everyone is anyway) Everyone used to say the world was flat long ago, and now we know its not. No one knows for sure entirely. (Except normura I guess and his team) It could be related to vanitas, could be related to red eyed hearless, could be something else entirely. Only facts we have is that it came from some darkness surrounding sora, whether its related to sora or not is just a guess, and if it was related to sora, why a black coat and why the purple sleeves, theres a few things we dont understand from it really.

There may be a connection... I noticed the music for Anti-Black Coat (Seems to be his name) and the red eyes heartless from BBS, both have a similar music rhythm, so perhaps some connection... I cant really see a connection from what I know. Anti-Black Coat just seems to be a nightmare made from sora? Some darkness from sora? So from that, I cant make a connection between red eyes and Anti-Black Coat. THe only other connection is the sleeves and end of his coat are also a similar colour to the heartless, so, he seems quite based on that heartless, but I really cant make a connection, its just similarities we see... I noticed the eyes were similar to dream eater nightmares too, so...

I personally think KH3D looks amazing. I really like the idea of collecting dream eaters, meaning you have a wide variety of allies to team up with and the benefits each of them offer. I personally think the portable KH's are getting much better too, they always seem to kinda stride off the standard KH path a bit, which if they do it right isnt a bad thing at all. Look at what BBS did, now everyone (Or at least most) prefer that battle system to the old battle system from the console versions. Portable KH's seem to me to be a chance for SE to experiment to see if KH would benefit from something and so far, most of what they've done has been liked well, for the console versions however, they seem to not like to change much, perhaps they want most to not mess up a console version than a portable version, so if anything, portable KH's have a greater chance to be fun, but also a chance to not, but they havent let me down yet, so I think it'll be fine if not better. So personally, I think KH3D looks the next best in terms of gameplay, only thing I'm not so sure of is using free-flow to navigate around the world very quickly and far, but thats just something where I need to play the game to understand exactly. As for story, I also think its good again, if anything BBS was the most unneccessary in terms of story (kinda COM/Re:Coded too seeing you forget all of it/nothing of much importance..., but it did have some occurances you wouldnt be able to guess), most things you could either guess or predict in BBS, plus the fact it felt quite repetitive having to do the same world with each character, so for KH3D, its good they seem to have fixed the repetition problem by having both characters on the same world which switches after a countdown as well as to fully not be able to predict anything and have some suprises (That is if I didnt spoil myself already ha ha). If anything, only thing storywise I'm concerned about is whether introducing time travel was a good idea or not, not entirely because it may confuse things further, but just simply because of paradoxes and etc etc, things affected through changing things. So I dont think I'm really that worried about KH3D not being good, I know I'll love it anyway. Only thing for me for portable KH's is whether its sufficient in length, but for BBS I played a little over 100 hours, and KH3D offers about 35 hours of required gameplay, it may go higher with the other things to do, who knows? Plus some boss battles look really fun to go back to again.

I think for the TWEWY keyblade, the handle looks like neku's headphones, I cant see a skull, unless you mean the white circle I see above it, but I cant quite make it out. Congrats on noticing all this though! I was wondering about the tron keyblade, not the identity disc one, but the kingdom key having a tron effect. I was wondering if that only happens for the kingdom key, or if that effect happens to any keyblade you're wielding. Probably just kingdom key.

Well, I'm disappointed by this a little. I was thinking it'd be cool to buy the 10th anniversary edition, but its too expensive and has little to offer for me. Postcodes are a neat idea, dont know what the guard is. The 2 games however I already have, so I think its a rip, it'd probably end up cheaper too just to buy KH3D and Re:Coded and 358/2 seperately than to buy this too, meaning you're just buying postcodes/guards. If they had sora/roxas necklaces or something cool from the series, I'd be more tempted to buy it. But seriously guys, you expected HD remakes? Why would they bundle something for PS3 with a 3DS game for starters. I'd rather they just work on KH3 than remakes anyway, graphics are fine for the PS2 versions, I dont see the need, if anything DS ones should be remade, but I dont care about them being remade either.
