Hoshiko Hikari got a reaction from aqibseo123 in How many playthroughs of Kingdom Hearts III have you done?One in standard mode and one in proud mode. Though I admit I haven't yet beaten all the data bosses in the DLC. Stuck on Xemnas. Really need to try that again some time.

Hoshiko Hikari got a reaction from FUNGoodbye in What original Kingdom Hearts world would you like to live in?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.

Hoshiko Hikari reacted to ocean's rage in What do you think is the purpose of the phone shown in the recent KH4 screenshots?my theory is, and this might sound a little crazy, that it's just a phone

Hoshiko Hikari got a reaction from FUNGoodbye in In the recent KH4 screenshots, what do you think the two lights attacking Darkside are?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.

Hoshiko Hikari got a reaction from Kid Ryan in Kingdom Hearts Missing-Link development cancelledThat's possible too. I doubt they'll just throw away the story completely, especially as it promised to answer every unanswered question we had!

Woke up to the news and now I’m devastated. My day is ruined.
I really, really hope they do this. 😭

Hoshiko Hikari got a reaction from BlazingHearts in Was kingdom Hearts inspired byWith 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.

Hoshiko Hikari reacted to Ursalink in "Kingdom Hearts" meets "Miraculous"?Thanks for the reminder.
-
Hoshiko Hikari reacted to NeoLimitForm in What cancelled Kingdom Hearts world would you like to see brought back?Treasure Planet. I feel like Dream Drop Distance wasn't the best time to introduce that world so it's good that they cut it. I'm sure it'd be a great spectacle in Unreal Engine 5 so I'd love to see them implement it in a future installment

Hoshiko Hikari got a reaction from Movies798 in Kingdom Hearts Worlds In Real LifeI 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.

I was just thinking about this earlier today. although I'd have the boss fight be against maginfico. also the idea that the wishes are pieces of people's hearts fits KH

Hoshiko Hikari got a reaction from SoraDaxjer28 in What do you think is inside the Black Box?I'm surprised the Book of Prophecies isn't an option.
-
Hoshiko Hikari got a reaction from Keyblade101 in What character would you like to play in the tutorial in Kingdom Hearts IV?I think Sora is most likely to be the one we play as in the tutorial, but Kairi could also work story-wise as we know she's starting to train under Master Aqua so the game could begin with her first training session where Aqua goes through the basics with her to see what Kairi knows.

Hoshiko Hikari got a reaction from WakelessDream in KH13 Giveaway: Share your fondest Kingdom Hearts Memory and enter for a chance to win a copy of Simple & Clean: Unlocking Kingdom HeartsThere's so many moments to choose from but I'll go with a rather unusual one where I wasn't even playing the games at the time. Back when I first played KH1 (the original PS2 version) I used to get really annoyed with how Riku and everyone else on the Island thought he was better than Sora (and in turn myself since I was controlling Sora). Then with everything that happened during KH1 I disliked Riku even more as he tried to take everything away from Sora. But at the end of the game, of course, he helps Sora to close the door and says the famous words, "Take care of her," before trapping himself in the Realm of Darkness, which led me to be rather uncertain as to how I actually felt towards him afterwards because I'd spent the whole game being irked by him and then suddenly he does that.
Fast forward a few years and KH2 has just come out in Japan. I found myself watching a KH Youtube music video which unexpectedly included part of the scene from the KH2 ending where Sora and Riku return to the Destiny Islands together. Usually I hate spoilers but I was so happy to see that Riku comes home safely together with Sora that I was literally bouncing up and down with a stupid grin on my face whilst the rest of my family thought I was really weird. It wasn't until that moment that I realised I did actually care about Riku after all and he's now my favourite character!

Hoshiko Hikari reacted to ocean's rage in KH4 - Onward Prequel Ideai was right. i love those guys

Hoshiko Hikari got a reaction from Heather Chandler in KH4 - Onward Prequel IdeaSo I finally watched Onward for the first time the other day and (as I do with any new Disney film these days) immediately started wondering how it might fit into Kingdom Hearts. Feel free to disagree with me but I'm not sure having an Onward world follow the events of the film is the best way to go because either Sora, Donald and Goofy will get in the way of Ian and Barley's brotherly bonding time or they'll end up spending most of the time chasing after Ian and Barley from behind, possibly taking Mrs Lightfoot's place by teaming up with The Manticore, which could end up feeling like a rehash of their time in Arendelle culminating in a battle with the cursed dragon that will be a lot like the Darkubes boss battle from San Fransokyo.
Whilst the above ideas could still work if executed well, I think it would be a lot more interesting and original if an Onward world was set before the events of the film as a prequel story. Kind of like how the San Fransokyo world works as a sequel to Big Hero 6 offering closure on the original Baymax. Here's my idea:
When Ian meets someone who knew his father, they tell Ian that his father was a bold and confident person, but his mother says that his father wasn't always like that, however doesn't exactly say how he changed. We also know that his father came into possession of a wizard's staff but we never find out how he got it or how he learned to use it. Was it just a family heirloom or did he find it? These mysteries provide the perfect opportunity for Sora, Donald and Goofy to become part of the story. What if the trio landed in Onward's world when Mr Lightfoot was a self-conscious teenager and end up going on an adventure with him where he not only learns to believe in himself thanks to Sora's encouragement but also learns magic from Donald? Not only will this allow Sora and co. to play a meaningful part in a Disney story, rather than being third-wheels or replacing other characters, but it will also allow us to get to know Mr Lightfoot more which would then give more weight to the story of Onward itself. With Disney being a lot more involved in Kingdom Hearts now than they used to be, and with the San Fransokyo, Toy Box and Monstropolis worlds already featuring original stories designed to work as canon to the films they are based on, I think this could be a real possibility.
Let me know what you think!

That's amazing! Definitely let me know when you're done with that!
Maybe after you're done with that, you can make "Look What You Made Me Do" with Riku?

Hoshiko Hikari got a reaction from WakelessDream in Video Discussion: Kingdom Hearts - Million DreamsThank you very much! ^_^

I can see why you were a strong contender during the GMV contests held here from years past. You did a great job with the video, it's a cute song and I felt you really made it fit well with the scenes you used.
