    G-SANtos got a reaction from Kittenz in [Theory] Eraqus and Xehanort's Master is the third in their trio - And speculation on their identity   
    This is a theory I've had for some time but didn't have time to post before.
    The Land of Departure's Forecourt has three chairs, and in Birth by Sleep we see Eraqus and Xehanort occupying two of them, with the middle one empty. If I remember correctly, this led some poeple to theorize they are part of a trio, but I'm not sure if that was the only reason. I believe the third person is their Master.
    Some time ago, I read someone theorizing that Yen Sid is the third person in the trio because of him saying in BBS that he "used to walk the path of the Keyblade Master alongside Eraqus and Xehanort". Here is the link for the discussion, and here is the image. While that person interprets that line to mean "I trained together with Eraqus and Xehanort", I think it actually means just "I was a Keyblade Master just like them". After all, if Yen Sid was trained with Eraqus and Xehanort, you would expect Yen Sid to be mentioned in Xehanort's Reports when he talks about his youth.
    I think this is what made me think about this hypothetical third person, and I thought that, going with the positioning of the empty chair, it makes more sense for the third person to be the Master, who we might see in KH3.
    So, who is Eraqus and Xehanort's Master and how are them like? We know this Master trained them, passed the No Name to Xehanort, chose Eraqus as the Successor and probably passed the Master's Defender to him, and that the Keyblade War is the Master's favorite story.
    First, considering all other trios in the series, I think the Master is a woman. The English version of Xehanort's Letter in BBS refers to the Master as male, but the Japanese text doesn't use any gendered term, so I think it might have just been the translators going "male as default". While we do know from interviews that the localization team communicates a lot with the Japanese staff, I doubt they asked Nomura about the Master's gender considering they had no reason to think the Master would even appear at any point. In fact, I think Nomura didn't even think much about the Master when mentioning them in BBS.
    But it makes sense from how Nomura thinks for the Master to be a woman. Nomura loves parallels and connections, and there been many parallels and connections between the BBS characters and the Destiny trio, from how both Terra and Riku have history with darkness, to Sora and Ventus both having their friends as their power. Even further, Vanitas and Riku have similar dark suits and fight poses, Young Xehanort's fight stance is the same as Riku's, and actually Young Xehanort was even voiced by Riku's VA in BBS (at least in the English version, I don't know if we have confirmation about the Japanese version and I'm not an expert on VAs to try to recognize the voice). On connections, Riku and Kairi became Keyblade wielders because of Terra and Aqua, Ventus played a small role in Sora getting a Keyblade (like, the reason why Sora was a viable replacement to Riku at the start), if I'm remembering the interviews right, and is the explanation for Roxas's face.
    Furthermore, I read some people saying Eraqus and Xehanort's chess game gave them Sora and Riku vibes (like, it's kinda like how Sora and Riku would always compete), and I honestly found young Eraqus similar to Sora when I first saw him. So, having the Master being a woman could parallel TAV in how Aqua is the only Master in the trio.
    Now, let's try to guess the Master's name. We already have characters named Yen Sid, DiZ, and Eraqus. Eraqus is an anagram of Square, DiZ is partially a reference to Disney if I remember correctly that CoM Ultimania interview, and Yen Sid's name spelled backwards is Disn- Hey look, a coin!
    So, I think the Master's name is Eni, which is an actual female name in Japan, starts with an "E" like Eraqus and the tooth of the Master's Defender, and it's "Enix" minus an X. I mean, why not? Eraqus's name only uses the Square part of Square Enix, so why not having a character referencing the Enix part of the name?
    Now, something that I've been thinking for some time, what if we already know this Master? What if the Master is a character we have already seen? I guess you might be confused now, because, what character we know could fit the description I just theorized and be old enough to have trained Eraqus and Xehanort?
    Actually, there IS one character who we have already seen, is female, and is old enough to be the Master: Kairi's Grandma.
    Yes, that's my theory, Kairi's Grandma is Eraqus and Xehanort's Master.
    Just think about it, the Keyblade War is "the Master's favorite story", a line Nomura made a point of including in the very first trailers: the E3 2014 and 2015 ones. See the E3 2014 teaser, all keywords are highlighted, and so is "Master", implying it's a keyword. And the Japanese version of that line is something like "I wonder how many times I heard about it from the Master". In other words, they highlighted the word "Master", implying it's important, in a line saying how the Master likes to talk about the Keyblade War. How many times have we seen Kairi's Grandma? Exactly three times: KH1, KHBBS, and KHχ's opening, and literally all three times she tells a fairy tale version of the Keyblade War, the same story they made sure to let us know the Master loves to tell.
    Kairi's Grandma being important is something that would legit surprise people and would have the most subtle foreshadowing this franchise has had in a long time, so subtle most theorists didn't even notice. In fact, with my point above about parallels and connections, the Master being Kairi's Grandma would be genius. If my theory is correct, that might even be why they aren't showing Radiant Garden (because I honestly doubt they wouldn't make it playable): If the story is mainly about Kairi's Grandma (or, heck, mainly played as Kairi or having Kairi as the Party member, but basically Kairi-centric at all), then it would be a big spoiler, just like how they aren't including many scenes of TAV in trailers. Maybe Radiant Garden is even a late game world. After all, the person who trained the Big Bad showing up seems like something you would put in the late game.
    If you still find this theory ridiculous, well, KHUχ is finally introducing blood connections, so doesn't it make sense to have the only known relative shown so far becoming someone important? In fact, giving Kairi's Grandma relevance could be what motivated Nomura to finally introduce another family in the franchise. Either that, or family is the next saga's theme, which would bring into question how Sora fits in since the entire franchise is his story, according to Nomura.

    G-SANtos got a reaction from Tyranto Rex in Could the next trailer show more of Pete and Maleficent?   
    The other day there were multiple new screenshots showing Pete and Maleficent. So, I was thinking, do you think the next trailer will show more of their role in the story? Like, we have had no trailer with a scene about them since the one where they ask Hades about the black box, and suddenly they release four new screenshots of them.
    Plus, if the trailer does come today, on Mickey's birthday, as some people suggested, it would make sense for it to feature Pete, as he's a character from "Mickey, Donald, and Goofy's canon", for lack of a better term. What do you think?

    G-SANtos got a reaction from Komali in There was a story leak some time ago...   
    I think you're thinking of this Reddit thread, in which case it means it's fake, as part of the thread has been debunked by the E3 trailers. For example, there's no mention of Aqua or Larxene among the 13 Darknesses and it claims Arendelle stuff happens after the movie plot, with Anna and Elsa being party members.
     
    That said, I think the fake leaker might have coincidentally got stuff right. Sora falling into darkness is something surprising, and thus something Nomura could do, and would explain why there's a part of the game where it "doesn't make sense to play as Sora", so Roxas becoming the playable character for a large part of the game makes sense.
    The Keyblade Graveyard not being the final world is something that I feel is obvious, as that's just the place where the battle to forge the χ-blade will take place. If anything, the final world is most likely Knigdom Hearts itself, and characters like Isa might only be saveable there, as Xehanort will no longer need his multiple vessels due to already having the χ-blade.

    Also, it was stated that KH0.2 was going to be as large as a KHIII world, but due to added content it actually ended up becoming BIGGER than an average KHIII world, so we don't know if KH0.2 is much of a measuring tool here.

    - Show us new gameplay mechanics
    - Show us some FF characters
    - Let us hear one new piece of music made by Yoko
     
    Furthermore I would love to see some new artwork by Nomura, preferably the cover of the game.
     
    I am totally fine if the trailer doesn't include
    - the second playable character
    - new designs from Riku, Mickey, Kairi, Lea, etc.
    - release date
    - English dub
    - HEAVY SPOILERS

    G-SANtos got a reaction from Master Keeper in Vexen will be a Seeker of Darkness   
    Why would Even and Vexen be existing at the same time? The Sora and Roxas case is something the series has actually shown to be extraordinary, and its extraordinariness was actually the main focus of an entire game. We have been given no reason to believe Vexen is somehow also extraordinary, as such all indicates Even and Vexen are the same person, unlike Sora and Roxas.
     
    Simply being loyal to Xemnas is not enough to be fit as a vessel. We saw the scene where the original members of OrgXIII were in Radiant Garden and Xigbar asking YX who is a vessel, and we have seen that ONLY Isa is one. Vexen wasn't chosen by Young Xehanort, meaning he's not a vessel. He also doesn't have yellow eyes or pointy ears, even further debunking the possibility of him being a vessel.
     
    Also, Xigbar in DDD and Braig in Re:coded aren't separate beings, they are the same. Xigbar has been restored to human as of DDD, and just keeps using the name Xigbar as a symbol of loyalty to Xehanort, and he wasn't time traveling. He only looks diferent in Re:coded because the 2.5 staff probably didn't have time to create a new model of him wearing his HB uniform, so they went the "lazy" route of using the BBS model. If you are somehow bugged about using a model of him younger, remember that in BBS nobody ages even with all those flashbacks showing stuff from 4 years before.

    G-SANtos got a reaction from Iamkingdomhearts1000 in (spoilers) the release date, world announcements and more   
    To be honest, while a few years ago I wanted Atlantis to be in KHIII, I'm now expecting it to only appear in KHIV or later.
     
    Because we now know KHUX will go beyond KHIII, that means some things about the Keyblade War will only be important for the next saga, and because KHIII is a finale, I'm not sure if it makes sense to bring up a whole lot of new stuff about the Keyblade War in the game. For example, Ven being from the Age of Fairy Tales seems like something that will be more important for KHIV than KHIII.
     
    What that has to do with Atlantis? Well, because the people of Atlantis have such a long life span, I expect that there are people there who may remember the Keyblade War, or know more about it than in most worlds.

    G-SANtos got a reaction from DarylTrect in The new world will be The Incredibles   
    Sorry for posting this theory so late. I wanted to make a thread about it before with a more detailed analysis of alternate possibilities, but I've been so busy with college that I haven't had time for that, so now I'm just posting this.
     
    The world they are going to announce today is The Incredibles. Why? Simple, the teaser image in the last trailer had Sora with a Keyblade transformation that looked like a mechanical claw. Many people are guessing it's Toy Story, but I think that it's The Incredibles because the claw looks like the Omnidroid's claw.
     
    Also, we learned in the last trailer that the party system has changed, and you no longer have to replace Donald or Goofy to have a guest member fighting. I think the party system is being made with the 7 VS. 13 battle in mind, so you can have seven people total in your team. What better way to showcase this than having a world with four guest members? There The Incredibles.
     
    Also,m looking at where Hercules's HP bar is located in the last trailer, it goes on top of the main trio's places in the HUD. Looking at it, there seems to be room for two bars on that bar's left, thus you haved three people in the same horizontal line, and one in a space to the left of Sora's face.
    Sorry, I intended to make an image to demonstrate what I'm saying better, but I just want a proof that I saw this coming if my theory is right. But my point is, the HUD has space for three more people's stats.

I responded and immediately shot it down or downgraded such theories because I thought once he returned to Sora, that was it. Now, never have I ever thought such a theory would become fact. I feel kind of bad and regret having struck down or even degraded or downgraded any said theories and feel like I have been condescending in some cases towards some people. For all of that, I apologize and admit that you were right and I was wrong.

    It was kinda obvious from Nomura's words they weren't the same person, though. Nomura said Ven would play a role in the story, and the Player never plays a role in the story being just an avatar for the players to experience it.
