David Gallagher has been entertaining to watch playing through KH1 for the first time on YouTube. His voice naturally sounds like Riku and he keeps referring to Riku as himself so I think he'd be fun to meet. I also used to have a crush on Sora's Japanese voice actor Miyu Irino so I wouldn't mind meeting him either 😅
-
I've cried many times throughout this franchise but possibly the moment that made me cry most was the KH1 ending. Sora saying, "I'm always with you too", whilst being separated from Kairi, the music and the beautiful animation made me sob when I first watched it (20 years ago!). Oh and when Kairi 'sees' Sora drawing the paopu fruit and laughs whilst crying 😭

Scala ad Caelum because it was a beautifully designed world which was clearly once a thriving place but by KH3 was completely deserted, giving it an eery feel and making you wonder what happened there. Also the beautiful setting was an interesting contrast to the tense, dark mood as you prepared to fight Xehanort, though of course it turned into a very abstract and much darker setting when everything turned Doctor Strange.

Destiny Islands has always been my favourite. It hardly ever gets attacked by Heartless or Nobodies, it's beautiful, it's peaceful whilst still having a good community of people and you'd get to hang out with Sora, Riku and Kairi. Plus I want to see what the main island looks like as we've never explored it. Lastly Terra and Aqua indicated that it's a world bathed in warmth and light unlike any other world which makes it sound basically like heaven.

This has actually got me wondering, will save points look the same in Quadratum? If it's meant to resemble the real world then those glowing circles/spiralling lights might look out of place. It'd be interesting if they were disguised as things like a telephone. When Sora's outside his flat (apartment) the save points could be phone boxes instead, though most phone boxes in my country now house defibrillators as no one uses them anymore.

Sora and Riku is certainly possible, but it could also be Sora and Strelitzia. I feel like people are forgetting Strelitzia is a keyblade wielder as well, so she could be a party member fighting alongside Sora.
-
Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if it was 2027 either, but I hope we don't have to wait too long to get more substantial updates.

If you tap on the image and then press the arrow to the right of the image you'll see almost the same image with Japanese text, except the top screenshot looks different and the lighting looks better in it.
-
That's possible too. I doubt they'll just throw away the story completely, especially as it promised to answer every unanswered question we had!
-
That's really disappointing, but I hope they find some other way of giving us the story that was going to be in the game. Like a Back Cover-style movie maybe.

I need to rewatch them all again. Went to see Revenge of the Sith in the cinema last week after having probably not seen it since its original release. All I remembered of the film was the ending and the fact it had a cheesy script ("I have the high ground!!") but I appreciated its humour a lot more this time around.

Whilst Ava is my favourite Foreteller and leader of my union, I voted for Gula as he's a character with different layers to his personality that makes him quite intriguing. He's quick-thinking yet often laid-back and aloof yet obviously has a soft spot for Ava. It'd be interesting to know what makes him like that.

No it counted as 7 separate instances, as clarified by Chirithy below: Chirithy: Even with the power of waking, you can't just bring someone back. Sora: But Kairi's heart hasn't been lost yet. She's still with us, right? Chirithy: Maybe, but this time, I'm afraid the situation is a lot worse. Sora: Hey, I've already restored six hearts. What's one more? Chirithy: But that's not how it's supposed to work at all. The power of waking is meant to be used to wake and restore sleeping hearts, not to restore them after they've completely faded away from existence. You've done that six times before, and as a result, you've managed to greatly alter the course of history itself.

Ansem the Wise said that Sora was the only one able to return to his human form without destroying his Nobody. I believe this means that no other Nobody is able to co-exist with their Somebody without using time travel, except Namine and Kairi due to the fact that Kairi never lost her human form and Sora was involved in creating Namine. Also, I think that with other Nobodies who possess hearts but then return to their human form, their Nobody hearts merge with their human hearts to become one and the same (like Axel/Lea). Therefore Xemnas couldn't be extracted from Xehanort without Xehanort perishing.
-
I've wondered about this as well. Whilst I don't know the exact answer, I think Vanitas' body must have been like Sora's body when Kairi changed him back from being a Heartless. His body looked and seemingly acted like normal but it was incomplete until Roxas returned to him. Therefore I think Vanitas' body must also have been incomplete without Ven. Though of course both Vanitas and Roxas obtained their own complete bodies in KH3.

With Berserk being such a popular manga in Japan (though I've never read it) it's quite possible that some inspiration was taken from it, whether intentionally or not. In turn, I think the manga Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle took inspiration from Kingdom Hearts. Both are about a 14 year old boy from a sunny, sandy world whose childhood friend and love interest (that's also a princess) loses her heart when dark beings invade their world from another dimension, causing him to go on a journey across many other worlds with a magician and a royal guard whilst meeting characters from other stories, in an effort to save her. Also both boys are voiced in Japanese by Miyu Irino.
-
Yes, it's Mont Saint Michel, which is also the inspiration for the Kingdom of Corona in Tangled. I didn't include every example of real places in the franchise as I was having so many issues with this website whilst making the post.

I knew someone would comment on this. I know that, technically, Big Ben is the name of the bell inside the tower, but most everyone refers to the whole tower as Big Ben, even though its official name, as only of 2012, is indeed Elizabeth Tower.
