From the start Sora started out to be an underdog. And with the Nomura twist, Sora became the most vital character in the series. From KH1, Re:CoM, KH2, Young Sora in BBS, Data Sora in Re:Coded, and DDD. He was the constant being played out in all of these installments and it shows how important his role is in KH3.
 
It's possible that he is connected to Kingdom Hearts and he might even be Kingdom Hearts itself.

Xion WILL return and im hoping that she'll spawn a different keyblade reflecting her persona

I'm personally done with the whole "Sora is supposed to be an average kid" thing. He's not Timmy Turner, dammit! Then again, Timmy Turner had magical fairies...
 
My point is that Sora doesn't need to ride this normal schtick any longer. He's the main character, he's gone up in strength and ability since the first game, his character is one of the main driving forces of the narrative, and he's traveled across the KH universe and beaten everything that has come in front of him.
 
He is the guy! Just admit it already Nomura! DX

I'd really prefer they finally throw Sora a bone
it seems like the entire series is built around telling us there's absolutely nothing special or unique about Sora
his combat style isn't his own, he got it from Ventus
he can't dual wiled because of himself, that's Xion and Ventus
that's not his keyblade, it's Riku's
he can't be a keyblade master, he got kidnapped!
 
can't he actually just be something without it being because of someone else for once?

Xion WILL return and im hoping that she'll spawn a different keyblade reflecting her persona

She will most certainly return. The ending of DDD highly hints toward hers and others returning.

I think a world based on Robin Hood 1973, would make an interesting world with the anthropomorphic characters
 
 
Sora could be a Hedge hog because of his spiky hair!
 
Donald could be could just himself as a duck as he already is an animal already, he just needs the suitable medieval clothing
 
Goofy - could wear the same type of clothing as little john
 
If Pete was to come to this world to work for Prince John, then he could take over from the Sherriff of Nottingham, taking tax from all the poor who can't afford to pay any more. He could be like a big rat or dog character.

I want Hayner, Pence, and Olette to reunite with Roxas. It would be cool if Lea and Xion joined the group too. They could all have ice cream together. 

Well put!!! The Tome of Prophecy can draw power from both future and past so yeah that explains why Maleficent is after its data version. It reminds me of FF13-2 where there were anomalies in different eras of a specific place. Typical Nomura. -_-

Kingdom Hearts Boom

Of course KHIII will come before 2019. What? Think Nomura is crazy?
 
It's ok to make jokes that it will take forever, but talking seriously, I don't think he can launch a KH game per year, like he stated he wanted to, if KHIII is delayed too long.
 
My guess: 2016.

I want Olympus Coliseum but I also want the tournaments to give EXP.

All can change from here until the release.
 
I've seen a scene from BbS where Yen Sid threw lighting bolts at Mickey which didn't make it to the final version.

I wouldn't mind if the Dream Eaters will come back. I love those things! 

You know, you pose an actual good point here.  The series has dealt with a lot of sleeping, now that you mention it!  I'm guessing that if the dream world does appear in Kingdom Hearts III, it'll only be slightly, or perhaps for a small quarter of the game.  Whether the dream world will return or not is up to Nomura.  I'd be happy to have the dream world back, as long as it plays well into the story.

I really enjoyed the flowmotion controls in DDD and it adds a whole new mechanics in gameplay.
 
Now I know that time travel will very well be incorporated in KH3, but sleep has been used frequently in the series.
Post-CoM, Sora is required to SLEEP in order to retain his memories back. Then after the events of BBS, Ventus' body is in deep slumber and later we found out that his heart went into Sora. Again, SLEEP. Lastly, in DDD, Sora and Riku went to partake the Mark of Mastery Exam and they were put into SLEEP to unlock the SLEEPing keyholes and later Riku obtained Data-DiZ's data what could be either Tome of Prophecy or Key of Returning Hearts with the help of  the DREAM WORLD.
And also in order to time travel, you must leave your body behind and a version of yourself waiting in that time, meaning you have to be asleep. So it means DREAM WORLD (could be) A FACTOR!!!!!!.
 
Take note: Sora was sleeping in the very beginning of the series "Gimme a break, Kairi"...."Sora, you lazy bum"!!!!!!!
 
So what'd you all think? Will dream world make its return in KH3? Plus who wouldn't want this as a companion:

If that was to happen, it would end up being a Bleach 2.5

Hey there everyone, how's it going?  As you all know, we're all very excited for Kingdom Hearts III, and well, as we wait for news, we can't help but speculate on what's to come.  Something that hit me today was the words "Darkness Prevails and Light Expires" from the latest Kingdom Hearts III teaser.  It got me thinking.  Sure, Kingdom Hearts III is the definitive end of the Xehanort Saga, and as such, it will be one hell of an ending, but I thought of this.  Tell me what you think.
 
Okay, so suppose that Xehanort indeed forges the X-Blade and eventually unlocks the power of the true Kingdom Hearts.  What then?  I remember reading on this site from one of the members that Xehanort could obtain all the power he desired, but end up being sealed inside Kingdom Hearts, thus, making his newfound powers useless.  After thinking about that, I thought about this.  Since Xehanort obtains all this power, he shifts the balance of light and darkness, thus making darkness obtain dominance.  But, light does not fade completely.  And slowly, Sora and the gang start to rebuild the lost worlds and restore the balance so that the true Kingdom Hearts can resurface again.  This way, Xehanort is out of the picture, but darkness itself has taken over.  And that's when the new villains of the next saga would come in.
 
They'd be upset that Sora and the gang weren't able to keep the balance in check because of Xehanort obtaining the power of Kingdom Hearts, thus, these new villains that are on the side of light try to dispose of Sora and the gang in the belief that by doing so, they would restore light, therefore restoring the balance between light and darkness.  I think it'd be an intriguing premise, and this way, the Xehanort Saga ended with Xehanort's defeat, but not exactly with a happy ending, and beginning the new saga with these villains of the light who want to eliminate Sora and friends!  What do you think?  Let me know your thoughts on this!

Any chance for Jump Festa 2015?

The Second Coming of Christ.

Well put!!! The Tome of Prophecy can draw power from both future and past so yeah that explains why Maleficent is after its data version. It reminds me of FF13-2 where there were anomalies in different eras of a specific place. Typical Nomura. -_-

I don't think the Disney worlds are canon but if it had to be done they could use the tome of prophecy. Since the tome can call power from the future perhaps it can pull world's from the future as well.

by the power of exposition and plot devices

Kingdom Hearts Re:X?? Just make it into full cinematic explanation rather than us having to play
