I knew the Seasalt Trio was going to win by a landslide. The Sora / Kairi / Riku and Aqua / Terra / Ventus trios spend a lot of time in the games apart and chasing after eachother. Not saying I love them any less but I felt like we saw the Seasalt Trio grow the most together. Though I may have a slight bias cause Roxas has always been my fav I am surprised to see Hayner / Pence / Olette have more than Aqua / Terra / Ventus. F in the chat for Mickey / Donald / Goofy -
Oh if the game was sold at like the standard price with 2 games included they definitely got the better end of the deal. I just assumed that the price was raised to bundle the 2 games together. That changes my perspective on it entirely. I like the fact that you get rewarded going into KH2FM after beating Re:CoM and rewarded after KH2FM back into Re:CoM. On top of the rewards and the good prices, I feel like disks are also a lot nicer looking than the ones we have over here. So they were winning in almost every aspect. I feel like the only thing they got jipped on was the fact that they had to beat KH2FM to get the additional Org Cards whereas we just had to beat the game. Since Re:CoM came out after KH2 they added in the additional Organization member cards. These cards were in both the English and JP Re:CoM, but these cards weren't present in the original CoM for either region. The biggest difference was that in JP you had to beat KH2FM first as @DestinysUnion stated and in the US we were able to find the cards after clearing the game. Additionally in the 1.5 ReMix we were able to get 358/2 days cards as well. I feel like it's really cool that they added in that little detail. Yeah I was pleasantly surprised when I watched the Re:Coded movie on the 2.5 years back because of how much I actually enjoyed it. I avoided it like the plague prior to that because everywhere I went someone was saying something bad about it. I even enjoyed playing the game itself after I watched the cutscenes. I feel like if Re:CoM was released as a standalone title we would've gotten full voice acting. But considering it was meant to be incentive to buy KH2 again I get why they ended up leaving it out and going the text based route.

For something as minute as a few extra cards post-game I wonder if this bundle sold well. I'd feel cheated if I had the JP version knowing all the US fans were getting the cards just from beating Riku's story. I know there were some things locked out in Re:CoM for not beating KH2FM first, but was there anything in KH2FM that was locked out by not beating Re:CoM beforehand?

Likely for time/budget efficiency if I had to guess. It was around the time that they started pumping out KH games year after year, so I could see them not wanting to invest the extra time in voice acting and making the characters more animated to fit the voices. I felt like the static cutscenes were fitting for the game personally. I felt like it made it more reminiscent of the original It was a good way to get the story of CoM to a wider audience without any decline in quality. It would be interesting to see Re:CoM with full voice acting and other changes, but I don't think that'd ever happen sadly as most people aren't too big on CoM/Re:CoM

Without a shadow of a doubt the KH3 ultima weapon is the best. It blows all the rest out of the water imo. I don't hate the KH2 ultima but it is a bit weird in some areas. It's a little too bulky in the middle, seems too blunt on the end, and the crowns feel a little cheesy. But all in all I think it's nostalgic and still look at it with fond memories despite its flaws.

It's great to finally see the soundtrack get the vinyl treatment. The closest thing I've had to KH on vinyl was the Face My Fears release from 2019. I got it for $14 back then, it's going for $80+ right now. It's crazy how high the price hiked up after they stopped pressing it. $80+ is also a lot for only 4 tracks imo. (Face My Fears EN, Don't Think Twice, Face My Fears JP, Chikai) There's something special about spinning up a record, it's a nice change of pace from Spotify and such. I'm glad to see Yoko has that fondness towards vinyl as well. Also, knowing that the LP Box is premium quality makes me even more excited to have it in hand

I'd have to go with the Birth By Sleep fight personally. Out of the 3 that would be the most memorable to me. The Dark Impetus theme is iconic and I loved the Ethereal Blades. Dream Drop Distance would be my runner up. I liked the stage for the boss fight, made the fight itself more notable to me.

Looks like both pieces were really nice quality! I ended up passing on the clothing for the same concern about sizing. The price was too high for me to gamble with it. I ended up getting the Roxas watch and I absolutely love it. I've been babying it too much to the point that I haven't worn it out yet because I don't want it to get scuffed up. Might end up buying the Ventus backpack, but I've been on the fence about it. That's such a cool piece to own. What about the shoe makes it uncomfortable though? If it's the insole you could likely put a comfier one in. If it's too tight you would likely have to break them in or if it's too loose I'm sure those socks will do the trick

The Shiro Amano artwork is beautiful, I've always loved their art style and work with the manga. The conductor Sora artwork is nice too, does anyone know what it says below him? I'm sure the comment Nomura made isn't anything bad. If anything it makes me more excited to see what's to come in the future

My pick would be KH1, it's without a doubt the most memorable out of the options for me. Honorable mention to KHDDD. I would always spend more time leveling Sora, so Riku would be barely be strong enough for each World/Boss. When I got to Ansem I was extremely underpowered and struggled through the first part of the fight. I was too stubborn to go back and grind when I realized there was a part 2 and suffered through attempting to beat the boss underleveled. I left my 3DS on the charger when I got burnt out from my attempts, I eventually beat it but took me way longer than I should've. So that boss would be my second pick for that past struggle

I agree, Way to the Dawn was without a doubt the most iconic of his weapons and it's sad to see the downgrade in KH3. I'm all for him moving forward and getting a new Keyblade in 3 but I do feel like the Braveheart was a bit of a letdown. It felt like a lot more of a mature Keyblade, but divorced all feeling of fantasy in my opinion. I hope he gets something more memorable in future installments.

Smart move, and waiting could bring up a potential sale on the older volumes, so it's a win-win situation

Hopefully we get a US release date by the summer, can't wait to add this to my manga collection

NeoLimitForm replied to Power Jusho's topic Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep | Birth by Sleep Final MixVoid Gear would be my pick without a doubt. It has as very sleek monochromatic design and is a viable for practical usage with it's high strength and decent magic.

It's a tie between 2.5 and 2.8/3/Ux for me, but I'd lean slightly more towards 2.8/3/Ux for my vote. Hopefully we get them all one day. Spotify is missing some of my favorite tracks like Dark Impetus and L'impeto Oscuro. But I guess there's always local files for those lol I love the way the 358/2 days DS renditions of tracks like Lazy Afternoons and Sacred Moon sounds over their KH2 counterparts, but they're all good in their own rights, just personal preference. Likely wouldn't see them on spotify but thought it was worth mentioning.

Yeah it makes it really easy to hop back in to play Ps3. I still use mine frequently (slim model), hope I can find a Fat Ps3 in the wild sometime too
-
Nice find! Definitely consider replacing the thermal paste if you decide to use it. Is it the backwards compatible Ps2 version?
-
Spider-man would be my pick without a doubt. I've always been a pretty big fan of spidey and the fanservice/nostalgia definitely appealed to me. It wasn't anything too spectacular, but still enjoyable. Out of the others on the list, I've seen Thor: Love and Thunder and Dr Strange Multiverse of Madness. Both felt like they were full of potential, but ultimately fell flat in my opinion. I feel like the MCU has degraded in quality with Phase 4. With the previous phases I can recall moments that I'll look back on fondly. For this phase, I don't see that happening lol
