Yes, that's what I was thinking as well. I do think there's a possibility of someone and I really feel like it'll be Riku (I hate that idea though). But yeah, I feel like there's going to be at least one casualty to really establish what's at stake this time around.

What a twist that would be! I would love that. I do think it was weird how YMX seemed to be helping Sora in the latest trailer. That being said, Xion hasn't been confirmed as an Organization member (it could've been Roxas...or someone totally unexpected). I think it'll either be Repliku/Data-Riku or Vanitas. The trailer showed Marluxia, Larxene, Luxord, Demyx and Vexen standing on pillars in the Keyblade Graveyard so I think they're pretty much confirmed to stay in the Organization 'til the end (if this happens in the end-game portion). We know Xehanort, Ansem and Xemnas are the OGs of the Organization so it won't be them. So that leaves YMX, Riku, Vanitas and Xion or whoever's under the hood. Can't wait to see who it'll be.

Old indeed, but since it's being revived, I will post as well. I'd say Riku's new keyblade (don't know what it's called), Two Become One or the Master's Defender. Mainly because I like their designs. Also, Two Become One and the Master's Defender have very cool unique abilities.

I don't think they would kill her just to bring her back in the next saga (unless they only bring her back at the very end of the next saga as a plot-twist). Honestly, Maleficent and Pete have been pretty tame as of late. I think Sora and the gang have bigger problems to worry about so my guess is they'll deal with her post-KH3.

Oh please no Every time we see her she's being mistreated or corrupted. I don't wanna see her suffer anymore.

Thank you, I guess ? I think Hellfire could be used as a reference to Ifrit, and KH has never really shied away from religious references (we have attacks like Holy, Salvation and we had "La Cité Des Cloches"). I don't think that would be a problem. That being said, I do think the name is a little dark for a good guy's weapon (in KH, that is).

Yaaaaay! There probably won't be any new scenes. But just a new montage is enough to please me. I bet they're going to play "Chikai"...again ?

Farthest Light would be very cool. Nice little reference to his conversation with Roxas. Do you guys remember what his Chakrams were called? Did they even have a name lol. Maybe it'll something similar to the Chakram's name?

I personally would love that as well...And I mean it's still possible. Merlin could send Kairi and Lea on a mission in Twilight Town. It would be very fitting since Lea's familiar with that world.

Honestly, people very rarely "die die" in Kingdom Hearts. I've seen a lot of people acting like this is "Infinity War" and talking about everyone's gonna die but...do we really think they're going to kill Donald Duck when Disney didn't even want to let Square Enix make a fighting game with these characters? I think people might be taken away from Sora, Riku might die...maybe. We'll see I guess but I'm not expecting anyone to die permanently.

Pretty sure Nomura said the tutorial was in Twilight Town and we know that Kairi and Lea are training in Radiant Garden so I don't think they'll be playable for the tutorial. Super excited that Riku is playable, he and Aqua are my favorite characters. I think he's only going to be playable for a short section. Maybe a section that has KH0.2's length or even less. I'm hoping there's also a section where we get to play as Kairi, but I doubt it'll be the tutorial.

Woops, my mistake lol. Anyways, yeah this wouldn't be a very appropriate moment to kiss. But at the same time, characters always kiss in the most inappropriate moments so it's still a possibility. Although I do think Sokai will happen, I'm not a kiss is going to happen, I was thinking Sora and Kairi sharing a paopu would be the closest we would get to seeing them as a couple. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Didn't you win one? Maybe my memory is faulty but I remember participating in one of the contests for HD Remixes.

I do think SoKai is end game and I think that was (quite obviously) planned from the beginning. That being said, I'm not sure that screenshot means anything. If anything I think Sora was just protecting Kairi from the beam like he did in the opening trailer.

So I'm making this topic for everyone who still thinks KHIII's character models still look like plastic. The recent 30 second add for Japanese cinemas has proven that there's nothing to worry about and that it's truly all a question of lighting. I mean look at this I know this isn't the best quality, but you can see by comparing Sora in 0.2 to Sora in KHIII that his skin tone looks a lot more natural. Also, Donald's beak and clothes look less shiny. The change in lighting made a really big difference. Do you guys feel like the characters still look a little plastic?

Sure thing!

Ansem, Seeker of Darkness didn't have a Keyblade. The Soul Eater is a sword, not a Keyblade. I was actually thinking that Master Xehanort would use the Organization members' hearts to duplicate and summon No Name Keyblades. So basically, he'd turn all the organization members into objects. That would be real messed up though lol.

Yeah, I would take Ultimania's over Bring Arts figures in Collector's editions ANYDAY.

I doubt that. It's been hinted that Aqua is going to be saved by Sora in KH0.2 BBS' opening and in the TGS trailer for KH3. Also, in a recent screenshot, we see Yen Sid order Riku and Mickey to continue trying to help Aqua and that's after Sora and the gang have returned to Mysterious Tower (so probably post-Olympus). My guess is Riku and Mickey are going to try to save Aqua, fail and the mission's eventually going to fall to Sora.

Yup, and we just got 3 trailers within 6 days...Things have definitely changed.

Found it! It's in the Birth by Sleep Ultimania. Source: https://forums.khinsider.com/birth-sleep/147009-bbs-ultimania-plot-mysteries-nomura-interview.html

I remember people saying "Finally the game is coming, we waited for so long"...Little did we know the wait was actually just starting.

I'd have to look for the quote but I think Nomura once said that Xemnas actually had the ability to wield a Keyblade but chose not to.

Well if it's Xehanort's first attempt in the past to force the X blade...wouldn't he have to time travel to go back to when he first attempted to forge the X-blade?

Doubt it...from a narrative point of view, it would be more climactic for it to be an established character we know and love. Also, the way Lea says "Who are you?" is kinda hinting that this is someone that's close to him but that he can't seem to recognize in that particular moment. Maybe Xion since he doesn't remember her...or Roxas since he can't see his face. We'll see.
