G-SANtos

A random disembodied voice that we hear for like four seconds in a cutscene and then never ever hear about it again, nor holds any importance to the story do is barely a character. Actually, it's NOT a character, it's just an extra (or even less).

Is Ansem the Wise a main or a secondary character? Because if he is a main one, that just kills my theory that he's Master Xehanort's son.

Final Mix.

Yeah, he either faked or regained the memories later.Finding his past self is not a problem, you can only go to times and places where you existed, so he would only go through time, without worrying about space, and then he's there with his younger self. Well, you lose your memories of time traveling after you get back to your timeline, so he couldn't have known after going back.

Well, you can only go to times and places where you exist, so it's not unreasonable to say that "Ansem" just traveled enough years to find him.And he knew about Xehanort's plan because he IS Xehanort and has his memories. We still don't know if the amnesia was faked or not, or I at least don't know, I haven't seen all the cutscenes.

Well, they start the game right in the boss battle because they want bold action. Maybe that's why they skip those parts, because it would "reduce the tempo" or something, the same reason why they put summaries of the other games instead of having the characters unnaturally explaining what they already know. Or maybe they had some time constraints?

If that translation from Ultimania is correct, Dream Eaters are born from the energy of the Jiminy Journal. Also, there are still other sleeping worlds, so I don't think the Realm of Sleep is finished. I think KHIII's prologue might take place in the Realm of Sleep, and you can chose a Dream Eater as Party member. In fact, I believe that we still have not seen verything of the Realm of Sleep, so maybe we can only fight Dream Eaters there, just like we only fight Nobodies in some worlds in KHII. I think was either a placeholder, or the same situation as Destiny Island, or Traverse Town is an exception to rules, or I'm missing something. If the latter is true, don't tell me what it is.

So what? Disney is full of princesses. I really think this world should be in KHIII, but the only thing I find weird is Sora in a frog form holding a Keyblade. Frogs don't move in the same way as lions, so that's my only concern. There's also Donald's magic which can transform the team into other species, which threats the whole plo of this world, but I can think this can be explained by "the curse is more powerful than Donald's magic" or something like that.

Actually, they have to go back to their time at some point. This is even stated in the game. Well, Sora got his Keyblade that way, but not the power to wield one. Nomura said that Sora was always able/destined to wield the Keyblade and would have came across one eventually. The events of Destiny Island, plus the fact that he was carrying Ven`s heart sped up the process. Sora`s Keyblade power is unexplained.There`s a theory on KHInsider that Sora got the power to wield a Keyblade after connecting to Ven`s heart in BBS`s prologue, but there`s no confirmation or proof that it is true. Lea went to the Mysteryous Tower to obtain the power to wield a Keyblade and Yen Sid sent him on training. The most logical assumption is that either Yen Sid, or Mickey by Yen Sid`s orders, performed a Ceremony on him.Yen Sid being surprised is unexplained, but you remember that in BBS`s prologue Xehanort was also surprised by seeing Ven holding his Keyblade even though he previously knew he was a wielder. Maybe the Keyblade has the ability of surprising people. He didn`t give up, they are just going to carry out their timelines, and are probably going to come back in KHIII.

I'm not sure if I believe the rumor. The lack of co​ded seems weird to me. We don't know this. They didn't mention FM, but there's too little difference between the normal versions and the FM for them to stand out from each other. KHIIFM has the most extras though.

Riku Replica and Data-Riku.

According to Nomura, he thought of BBS while making KHII. Also: They wouldn't have any excuse to make such a mistake since BBS emphasized the eye color so muchl. So it's not a mistake, there must be some meaning we are not aware of yet. So... A pseudo-Nobody of sorts? According to Ultimania, it's possible that a Nobody was created when Terra-Xehanort stabbed himself with the Keyblade, it could be related in some way.

The Power of Fate/Destiny? KH3D clearly shows that there's fate involved in the plot.

Cloud Strife and Vincent Valentine are different characters. Cloud is the protagonist of FFVII and Vincent is one of his allies and also protagonist of Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus.

In KH:FM, Riku met a voice similar to the one in the Dive to the Heart after his body was taken by Ansem the Heartless, and identified it as belonging to Mickey. I think that's when they met.

EVERY game is important to the plot, even coded. There are some games that are less crucial than others, but none of them is irrelevant the exception of V-CAST (non-canon) and Mobile (no plot or development to the story). Don't forget that the main reason for KH3D is connecting all the previous games and setting the plot for KHIII. I don't know the details, but Maleficent mentioned the data worlds and wanted them for some reason. Maybe revenge. I'll find out once I have the chance to play it.

Actually, what happened to Ventus was because Vanitas took too much from his heart. This is stated in the Xehanort Reports.

"It is said" ≠ "It is true".

But that's EXACTLY what you asked, and it's EXACTLY what your question means, I guess.

There's already a spoiler warning in the title, so you don't need to nake other warnings in the posts. The problem with the title is that it has a spoiler warning and a spoiler. It would be better if it said "____ travel" or something among those lines. I don't know either, I never made a thread here before. Try clicking in "Edit" and then in "Full Editor", it's the only thing I can think.

I thought their names were stolen. The game begins with a conversation saying "Do you remember your true name?", and then that's what I thought at first.

The Secret Ansem Reports have details about it. He was angry because they banished him to the Realm of Darkness, destroyed Radiant Garden, etc. If you mean his Keyblade, this is not really a spoiler. This information was officially released before the game's release via trailer, and thus not considered a spoiler by the forum's policy.If you mean anything else that was not officially said before the game's release... Then that would be a spoiler.

Well, according to the timeline it would be only some days if we assume that entering Castle Oblivion was not literally the day after Ansem's defeat, but we don't know how much time it would be in the Realm of Darkness, and since time flows slower in the Realm of Darkness, there's no time for anything. I also heard that was stuck between the Realms, not inside the Realm of Darkness, but I'm not sure.I'm more inclined to believe that Riku's absence would be either: his time with Maleficent and the Disney villains, the period between abandoning DiZ and the The World that Never Was assault, or a combination of both.

Well, you can save after beating Marluxia in Re:COM (and most likely COM too), but you'll go back to before the final battle. I suppose that's to allow the unlocking of Riku's story.Also, I may not have played all the games, but I'm under the impression that every game after Re:COM (maybe except Re:coded, but I'm not sure) can be saved after the final boss and then return you to before the final boss. It's the only way I can possibly see the Final Episode being unlockable and Day 358 being in Mission Mode.

But "time travel" is part of the title, and your brain doesn't freeze/stop just from reading the word "spoilers". Just by putting "time travel" in the title people already know that it's in the game.
