If there's one thing that irritates me, it's when people think that Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2 are somehow more important than the rest of the games in the series. Even people who realize that every single game in the Kingdom Hearts series has essential information seem to think that all of the non-numbered games are still not as important as the numbered games. So, I decided to give my take on how important all of the KH games are to the overall story and how essential they all are in order to understand what is happening in Kingdom Hearts III. I divided the games into two groups: Games that are extremely important to understanding the overall story and games that are less important. Extremely Important Games 1. Kingdom Hearts 2. Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories 3. Kingdom Hearts II 4. Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep 5. Kingdom Hearts [Dream Drop Distance] Less Important Games 1. Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days 2. Kingdom Hearts Re:coded 3. Kingdom Hearts Union χ[Cross]/Kingdom Hearts χ Back Cover 4. Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage- Many people mistakenly think that Kingdom Hearts II is the sequel to Kingdom Hearts 1. However, Chain of Memories is the sequel to Kingdom Hearts 1. Kingdom Hearts II is the sequel to Chain of Memories. Now, Chain of Memories isn't necessarily needed in order to understand Kingdom Hearts III (other than maybe having to know about Riku Replica, Marluxia, and Larxene), but Kingdom Hearts II is, and if you skip Chain of Memories, you won't know what's going on in Kingdom Hearts II. Birth by Sleep is extremely important because it introduces us to Terra, Aqua, Ventus, Vanitas, and Master Xehanort. All of these characters are extremely important to Kingdom Hearts III. I mean, Master Xehanort is the main antagonist! It also shows us the fates of all of these characters, which we will need to know for Kingdom Hearts III. Not to mention, we find out what Master Xehanort's ultimate goal is in this game: to forge the χ-Blade and start a second Keyblade War (this isn't as important to know ahead of time since we probably will be told this in Kingdom Hearts III, but this is when we are introduced to his goal for the first time). Dream Drop Distance is also extremely important because it literally sets up Kingdom Hearts III. It ties everything from the past games together (or at least it attempts to), informs us of what Master Xehanort's new plan to achieve his ultimate goal is, and leaves us with the heroes preparing for what to do next. The remaining four games (five if you count Back Cover as its own thing) are still important but are less important than the other games since they only have a few things in each of them that are needed to understand the overall story. 358/2 Days is the most important out of all of them because Xion's story is the story of the game, and Xion is who you need to know about for Kingdom Hearts III (assuming she plays an important role in the game, that is). All you need to know about from Re:coded is that there are people tied to Sora who are waiting for him to save them (also that Maleficent and Pete are now after the Book of Prophecies, which you find out in a new cutscene added to Re:coded in KH 2.5, but this probably isn't as important since you will probably be told this in Kingdom Hearts III). It is unclear how much you need to know of Union χ[Cross]/Back Cover, but you definitely don't need to know everything. You at least need to know about the Book of Prophecies, the black box, and what was revealed about Master Xehanort's Keyblade (you may also need to know about the Foretellers since Young Xehanort mentions the "lost masters", who he says started the Keyblade War, to Young Eraqus in one of the first Kingdom Hearts III trailers). I don't know how much from 0.2 you need to know, but I assume that you will at least need to know that Riku and King Mickey are off on a mission to save Aqua from the Realm of Darkness, that Kairi is going to train with Lea, and that Sora, Donald, and Goofy are off to Olympus Coliseum so that Sora can learn from Hercules how to regain the strength that he lost (most of this will probably be told to you in Kingdom Hearts III, so I don't know how much of this you will actually need to know before you play Kingdom Hearts III). So, that's my take on how important all of the games are to the overall story and to Kingdom Hearts III. While it is true that not all of the games hold the same level of importance as others, I think that many of them are more important than people make them out to be, especially Chain of Memories, Birth by Sleep, and Dream Drop Distance.

I voted for Cloud for the sole reason that he already is an opponent in Kingdom Hearts. If Cloud wasn't in Smash Bros, I would say, Mario, just because I would want to see them fight.

I think, in order for a movie to get a TV series, it has to have the potential for infinite possibilities. "The Incredibles" and "The Great Mouse Detective" fit this qualification since, in both shows, the heroes can take on different criminals every single episode with the only limit being the imagination of the show creators. Other movies that I feel fit this qualification are "Peter Pan" (although it technically already has a show: "Jake and the Neverland Pirates", but I'm talking about a show with Peter Pan as the main character), "The Rescuers", "Zootopia", and "Toy Story" (I know that "Buzz Lightyear of Star Command" was a "Toy Story" show, but I'm talking about a show that is like the beginning of "Toy Story 3" in which we see the toys taking on different roles and acting out different stories in different settings depending on how Andy or Bonnie plays with them).

I didn't think of Vanitas! I just assumed that he was one of the twelve darknesses that had already been chosen by the end of Dream Drop Distance. However, since we know that the Vanitas we see appear next to Young Xehanort in La Cite Des Cloches was just an illusion, it would certainly make you wonder why the Vanitas that showed up was just an illusion if he had already returned as one of the seekers of darkness. Vanitas could also be counted as a former darkness. After all, he did have yellow eyes in Birth by Sleep, which could mean that he was already a vessel for Xehanort before he was destroyed by Ventus within his heart. However, this begs the question: if Vanitas was not one of the twelve seekers of darkness present at the end of Dream Drop Distance and is going to be the new thirteenth vessel, who was the twelfth vessel (the one we thought was Vanitas)? We already know who ten of them are (not counting Vanitas): 1. Master Xehanort 2. Young Xehanort 3. Ansem, Seeker of Darkness 4. Xemnas 5. Braig/Xigbar 6. Isa/Saix 7. Luxord 8. Marluxia 9. Larxene 10. Terra/Aqua/Ventus (we do not know for sure which one of them Master Xehanort was referring to at the end of Dream Drop Distance) I had assumed up until now that Vanitas was the eleventh known member in that room, but if he wasn't, then that means we don't know who two of them are. Of the original characters who we know about, I think it is safe to assume that we can exclude all of the other members of the original Organization XIII (including Xion) except for Demyx (since Demyx is the only one whose fate is still unknown). I also think we can exclude Namine since she became a part of Kairi. So, that would leave these characters as possible seekers of darkness: 1. Demyx 2. Riku Replica 3. Ansem the Wise 4. Master Eraqus 5. Lingering Will 6. All of the original characters from Union χ[cross] and Back Cover I think that is safe to assume that none of the original characters from Union χ[cross] and Back Cover will be one of the seekers of darkness for two reasons. First, Young Xehanort said that he was the Xehanort from the most distant past, and since all of the original characters from Union χ[cross] and Back Cover existed way before Young Xehanort, that would seem to imply that none of them could be seekers of darkness. Second, I think that all of the members of the seekers of darkness will be characters that Sora has interacted with throughout his many journeys (except for Vanitas and Master Xehanort), and, since Sora never interacted with any of the original characters from Union χ[cross] and Back Cover, I think that lessens the likelihood that any of them will be seekers of darkness. However, Young Xehanort did mention the "lost masters", who started the Keyblade War, in one of the very first Kingdom Hearts III trailers, so maybe the Foretellers (and maybe some of the other original characters from Union χ[cross] and Back Cover) will play a bigger role in the game than I thought. I also think we can exclude Master Eraqus from this list since Master Xehanort killed him in Birth by Sleep. Even though Master Xehanort hinted that Master Eraqus may have set foot in Terra's heart, which could hint at a possible return for him, I don't think that we will see him return in Kingdom Hearts III since he has never been mentioned among those who need to be saved. I think we can exclude Lingering Will from this list as well since he is a part of Terra, and not a part of Terra in the same way that Roxas is a part of Sora. Lingering Will is literally the lingering will of Terra and nothing more (as far as I can tell). However, from some of the canon dialogue that was spoken at one of the Kingdom Hearts Orchestra performances, it sounds as if Namine has reached out to Lingering Will, which might mean that there is more to Lingering Will than I thought. I think we can exclude Riku Replica from this list as well since I am fairly certain that he is the one we see next to Riku in the Pirates of the Caribbean trailer. That would leave these characters as the two unknown seekers of darkness present at the end of Dream Drop Distance: 1. Demyx 2. Ansem the Wise If Vanitas is the thirteenth vessel, then I think that these two are the most likely options for the eleventh and twelfth vessels. However, as I already said, Lingering Will and the original characters from Union χ[cross] and Back Cover could still be potential candidates, as there may be more to them than I originally thought. However, I still think that Demyx and Ansem the Wise are the most likely candidates. With all of this being said, I think that, while Vanitas could be who Young Xehanort was referring to, he is one of the least likely options, in my opinion, because I personally think it is more likely that he was one of the twelve seekers of darkness present at the end of Dream Drop Distance.

At the end of the Toy Story trailer, Young Xehanort says some interesting things to Sora. This is how their exchange goes: Young Xehanort: "One heart's shadows fill the emptiness of another. See how they bring him to life? Like Heartless and Nobodies, they fit together." Sora: "Yeah, great. Why are you doing this?!" Young Xehanort: "There is a darkness we are missing and must reclaim. The way hearts connect in this world can provide a clue." Now, if Young Xehanort had just said that there was a darkness they were missing, I wouldn't have thought much of what he was saying. After all, we did see that they still need a thirteenth darkness at the end of Dream Drop Distance. However, because he said that the missing darkness must be reclaimed, I am led to think that whoever this darkness is was once a darkness but is one no longer, and the seekers of darkness are on a mission to make this person a darkness once again. Who could this person possibly be? I think that it could be four different people: 1. Sora I think that this is the least likely person who Young Xehanort could be referring to, but he was supposed to be the thirteenth darkness. Maybe the seekers of darkness haven't given up on making him one of them yet. There are few quotes from the seekers of darkness that could be interpreted in a way that backs this up. Xemnas says to Sora in the Orchestra trailer, "How do you expect to bring Roxas back when he should never have existed in the first place? There is only one way to accomplish it...Sora, are you finally going to call upon the darkness?" This could be Xemnas trying to trick Sora into calling upon the darkness so that they could make him a seeker of darkness. Also, Braig/Xigbar says to Sora in the Pirates of the Caribbean trailer, "And at the end, you'll finally realize what destiny has in store for you. In fact, your reward might be right around the corner." This could be Braig/Xigbar talking about how Sora is destined to be a seeker of darkness. However, there are also some other quotes from these same scenes that could be interpreted to prove that they are not trying to make Sora a seeker of darkness. In the E3 Showcase trailer, Xemnas says, "Nothing would please us more than Roxas' return." This could mean that they actually want Roxas as a seeker of darkness and not Sora. Maybe they are telling Sora to call upon the darkness because they think that it is the only way to bring Roxas back. After all, that's how Axel was trying to bring Roxas back in Kingdom Hearts II. Also, Braig/Xigbar says in the E3 Showcase trailer, "Still Sora, that doesn't mean you should change. Accept the power you're given. Find the hearts joined to yours." This could be the destiny that Braig/Xigbar is talking about in the Pirates of the Caribbean trailer. So basically, there is evidence to support both cases. However, I don't think that Sora is the one that Young Xehanort is talking about, mostly because he's the hero of the story, and who will we play as in the final battle if not Sora? Unless this is one of the surprises that Nomura is warning us about. 2. Terra Terra (from within his own heart) hinted that he had a plan to free himself from Xehanort's control in the secret ending of Birth by Sleep, and the fact that Xehanort returned as Master Xehanort and not as Terra-Xehanort, which he should have since Terra-Xehanort was the one who became a Heartless (Ansem, Seeker of Darkness) and a Nobody (Xemnas), could be a hint that Terra did successfully free himself from Xehanort's control. Perhaps Xehanort wants him back. However, there is one thing that makes me doubt that this is the case. At the end of Dream Drop Distance, we see that twelve of the thirteen darknesses have already been chosen, and we know that one of them was Terra, Aqua, or Ventus since Xehanort said that one of the Keyblade wielders King Mickey mentioned, in addition to Sora, belonged to him now (the only other Keyblade wielders King Mickey mentioned were himself, Riku, and Sora). It is possible that Xehanort was referring to Terra, however, in the E3 Showcase trailer, we see Riku and King Mickey return to Mysterious Tower while Sora was still in his Kingdom Hearts II outfit. This seems to imply that this scene happens early on in the game, which means that, if they are returning from their mission to the Realm of Darkness, they already found out by this point in the game that Aqua was a seeker of darkness. And if they found out about Aqua that early in Kingdom Hearts III, then she had to have been the one that Xehanort was referring to, unless Terra freed himself from Xehanort's control and Aqua became a seeker of darkness within the short amount of time between the end of Dream Drop Distance and the beginning of Kingdom Hearts III. Also, if it is true that Terra wasn't the one that Xehanort was referring to in Dream Drop Distance, then this must prove that he had no intention to get Terra back since he was trying to make Sora his thirteenth vessel instead of Terra, unless he is no longer after Sora and is now trying to get Terra back as his thirteenth vessel. 3. Roxas Roxas was part of the original Organization XIII, which would explain why Young Xehanort would count him as a former darkness since the original Organization XIII was supposed to be the seekers of darkness before they were all defeated. This would also explain Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, and Xemnas' interest in bringing Roxas back. Also, maybe that is why Young Xehanort is talking about getting a clue from the way hearts connect in Toy Box. Maybe the seekers of darkness are researching the way hearts connect in Toy Box in order to find a way to bring Roxas back from within Sora's heart. 4. Xion Like Roxas, Xion was technically part of the original Organization XIII and could, therefore, be counted as a former darkness. True, Saix says in 358/2 Days that she was never a real member because there were never more than thirteen chairs in Where Nothing Gathers, but Xion was also considered as a replacement for Roxas. Also, like Roxas, she could be the reason the seekers of darkness are researching the way hearts connect in Toy Box since she is also within Sora's heart. However, I don't think that Xion will end up being the one who Young Xehanort is talking about, especially since everyone forgot about her once she was defeated by Roxas and went back to Sora. However, these are just my thoughts. What do you guys think? Also, are there any other people who Young Xehanort could be referring to who I missed?

I don't think that they are necessarily writing Sora off, but I think the reason why both Master Xehanort and Braig/Xigbar treat Sora that way is that, even though Sora managed to defeat both Ansem and Xemnas, they couldn't find out why he was able to do so. There was nothing special about him that they could pin down. As far as they could tell, he was just a dull, ordinary boy. I think that also explains Braig/Xigbar's reaction in Dream Drop Distance when he finally found out that Sora's friends were his power. When he found that out, he said, "Duh. You're strong because of the ties you have with other people. As if the Keyblade would choose a wimp like you." He reacted that way because he now understood why someone as dull and ordinary as Sora could defeat both Ansem and Xemnas, let alone be chosen to wield the Keyblade. I actually think that Terra will be one of the guardians of light too. However, I think that it will not be as Lingering Will but as a complete person. Although, I do think that Lingering Will may have a purpose in bringing Terra back. I think that Ventus will also be one of the guardians of light and that both he and Terra will be the ones to save Aqua, which, if that is true, I feel would be almost poetic since it would almost be as if they are returning the favor for the times she saved them at the end of Birth by Sleep by saving her.

I actually think that, since Master Xehanort returned as his old self and not as Terra-Xehanort like he should have since Terra-Xehanort was the one who became a Heartless and Nobody, this might prove that Terra found a way to free himself from Master Xehanort's control. I don't think that we will see a Terra-Xehanort from the past. If Terra-Xehanort does appear, I'm fairly certain that he will be from the present. If there was a Terra-Xehanort from the past, that would imply that Xehanort could just turn the same person into a vessel multiple times, but he hasn't been doing that (as far as I know). It's why I don't think we will see both Terra-Xehanort and Apprentice Xehanort as vessels. They are both Terra. I think the only person we will see a past version of is Xehanort himself. If anything, I think that this most likely proves that Aqua is a seeker of darkness and Terra isn't. As I already said, Master Xehanort didn't return as Terra-Xehanort, which already hints that Terra may have freed himself from his control. Also, in the E3 Showcase trailer, we see Riku and King Mickey returning to Mysterious Tower. At this time, Sora is still in his Kingdom Hearts II outfit, which means that this scene must take place near the beginning of the game. This means that Riku and King Mickey must have already found out by this point that Aqua is now a seeker of darkness (if she is indeed a seeker of darkness), and if she is a seeker of darkness, then she must have been the one Master Xehanort was referring to when he said one of the Wayfinder Trio already belonged to him, unless Terra managed to free himself from Master Xehanort's control and Master Xehanort managed to make Aqua a seeker of darkness within that short period of time between the end of Dream Drop Distance and the beginning of Kingdom Hearts III. I don't think that them acting that way would be shrugging it off. There have been many moments when characters have become happy even in bleak situations. For example, at the end of Aqua's story in Birth by Sleep, even though Aqua and King Mickey just found out that Ventus' heart was sleeping, they were encouraged by the fact that their light could lead his heart back to the realm of light and became happy again because of that. Now, it might seem like there is no reason to be happy after finding out that Aqua is a seeker of darkness (if she is one), but I'm sure that they would still find reasons to be happy, which doesn't mean that they are shrugging of the situation. After all, even after Sora found out that Organization XIII kidnapped Kairi in Kingdom Hearts II, he still found reasons to be happy and not be depressed 100% of the time, but he still took the situation very seriously.

My favorite Marvel TV show is Spider-Man (the 1994 TV series).

I don't think that they're referring to Aqua. In the Toy Story trailer, Young Xehanort says, "One heart's shadows fill the emptiness of another. See how they bring him to life? Like Heartless and Nobodies, they fit together." He then gives the reason why he's in that world shortly after that by saying, "There is a darkness we are missing and must reclaim. The way hearts connect in this world can provide a clue." When Young Xehanort says, "the way hearts connect in this world," I think he is talking about how "one heart's shadows fill the emptiness of another". Therefore, I think that the way the seekers of darkness are planning on reclaiming their missing darkness is by filling the person with darkness. However, why would they need to do that if that person is already a seeker of darkness? I think the most logical explanation is that there is someone who used to be a seeker of darkness who found a way to escape from Xehanort's control, and I think that the person this is most likely to be is Terra. Terra has been fighting against Xehanort's control for so long, and, in the secret ending to Birth by Sleep, he seemed to hint that he had a plan for freeing himself from Xehanort's control. Maybe he succeeded and now Xehanort is trying to get him back. However, Nomura has done more than just say that she is "under the influence of Xehanort", he has also said that we can save her. These two things that Nomura has said seem to confirm that Aqua has in fact fallen under Xehanort's control. Maybe they don't encounter Aqua until after the Way to Dawn breaks. And even if that's not the case, when do we ever see the Kingdom Hearts heroes stay unhappy and depressed when something bad happens? They usually end up finding a way to smile again. I suppose Young Xehanort could also be talking about Roxas. He was a member of the original Organization XIII after all. Also, maybe when Young Xehanort is talking about how hearts connect in Toy Box, he is literally researching how hearts connect in order to get Roxas out of Sora. This would also explain why Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, and Xemnas seem so interested in getting Roxas back.

You bring up some good points that I never considered, specifically one Boo and Olette. As far as what I think, I think that we have to start by looking at the seekers of darkness. My guess is that most of the worlds we visit will have at least one seeker of darkness that we encounter in each of them and that, after we complete those worlds, we will not encounter those seekers of darkness again until the end of the game. As far as which seeker(s) of darkness will appear in each world, this is what has been confirmed so far: 1. Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, and Xemnas will appear in Twilight Town 2. Young Xehanort will appear in Toy Box 3. Marluxia will appear in Kingdom of Corona 4. Vanitas will appear in Monstropolis 5. Larxene will appear in Arendelle 6. Braig/Xigbar will appear in Olympus 7. Luxord will appear in the Caribbean So, eight seekers of darkness and the worlds that they appear in have been confirmed so far. I think that Master Xehanort will not appear until the end of the game, and I think that it is safe to assume that a seeker of darkness will appear in San Fransokyo. So, that leaves three seekers of darkness without worlds, which means that we may have at least three unrevealed worlds (not including the final world). I think that there will be one reason that the seekers of darkness are visiting each world. I also think that most of those reasons have already been revealed (for the worlds that they have been confirmed to appear in) or that we are at least able to make educated guesses on what the reasons are. 1. It seems that the main reason for visiting Twilight Town will be to get Roxas back (from what has been revealed so far). We don't know for sure if that is why Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, and Xemnas are visiting Twilight Town, but my guess is that it is. 2. Young Xehanort is visiting Toy Box in order to get a clue from the world on how to reclaim a darkness that the seekers of darkness are missing. 3. We have not been told why Marluxia is visiting Kingdom of Corona, but since that world is following the events of the movie, I think it is safe to say that he is only there for Rapunzel, who might be one of the new seven hearts. 4. It seems that Vanitas is visiting Monstropolis in order to collect emotions. 5. It seems that Larxene is visiting Arendelle for Elsa and probably Anna as well, who might be two of the new seven hearts. 6. We have not been told why Braig/Xigbar is visiting Olympus, but since we know that Maleficent and Pete are visiting that world in search of the black box, I think that Braig/Xigbar is probably there for the same reason. 7. Luxord is visiting the Caribbean in search of the black box. Also, from the little we know of the story for San Fransokyo, it looks as if that story will be about the darkness corrupted Baymax and not the search for the new seven hearts. And so, I think that only two of the revealed worlds will have anything to do the new seven hearts. That means that the only candidates for the new seven hearts that I am expecting to see from those worlds (not counting Kairi, since she has already been confirmed to be one of them) are: 1. Rapunzel 2. Anna 3. Elsa As I already said, there is a potential for three more worlds (not including the final world) to be revealed. If each of these worlds contains one of the new seven hearts, then (assuming that Rapunzel, Anna, and Elsa are all going to be members of the new seven hearts), we will have our new seven hearts. However, I think that there is a strong possibility that Queen Minnie will be one of the new seven hearts, and if that is the case, then we don't need both Anna and Elsa to be members of the new seven hearts to make this theory work. So, I think that, of the candidates from the worlds revealed so far, the new seven hearts will be: 1. Kairi 2. Queen Minnie 3. Rapunzel 4. Anna For the three potential worlds and the new hearts within them, these are the possibilies that I think we have: 1. Peter Pan (this one I think is extremely unlikely, but I still think that there is a slight possibility that, while Wendy was not one of the original seven hearts, she could be one of the new seven hearts) 2. The Jungle Book (The only reason I am including this world is that Nomura has tried a few times to include this movie as a world already. If this world is included in the game and does have one of the new seven hearts, my guess is that it would be Shanti) 3. Robin Hood (Maid Marian) 4. The Black Cauldron (Eilonwy) 5. Pocahontas (Pocahontas) 6. Atlantis: The Lost Empire (Kida) 7. The Princess and the Frog (Tiana) 8. Brave (Merida) However, this is assuming that none of the other worlds, other than Kingdom of Corona and Arendelle, have any of the new seven hearts in them and that each of the three remaining seekers of darkness (not counting Master Xehanort and the seeker of darkness who will most likely appear in San Fransokyo) will appear in worlds that have the new seven hearts in them. I think that there is a strong possibility that each seeker of darkness may not even get their own world (especially if some of them are former heroes, such as Aqua, since I think that they may not have their own worlds but will instead have one or two encounters with us that confirm to us that they are seekers of darkness or something like that). I am guessing that I am most likely wrong, but everything that I have just said is my best guess.

Usually, I just open the app once a day to get the daily rewards and then close the app, and I'm fine with that. I guess what I'm saying is that I'm fine with not playing the game that often, but I still have fun when I do play the game.

If I may say one more thing, I am also fine with not playing the game too much, since there are so many other things that I want to do. Even though there are still a lot of mission objectives and proud mode missions for me to finish, and even though I've been having fun completing them, I haven't really been completing them regularly unless there's a gap of time in which I am doing nothing else. Usually, I just open the app once a day to get the daily rewards and then close the...

Since, from how I'm playing the game, I'm still enjoying it, I don't see myself willing to give it that kind of rating. However, as I said, I now understand why people are willing to give it that kind of rating.

However, I don't know what the events were like before because I never really played them, and I don't know what PvP is like because I haven't tried it yet. So, I just have to trust that you guys are right, which I do. It's just that it isn't bothering me since I don't know what events were like before and since I haven't even tried PvP yet. I also now understand why you guys are giving it one-star ratings. Since, from how I'm playing the game, I'm stil...

I've also been having fun leveling up my Keyblades and buying as many medals as I can with the jewels I've been earning by completing all those objectives I didn't complete before (I don't sink much actual money into buying medals, especially since I don't really care if I don't get the medals I want; I'm just happy to get powerful medals, which I feel like I am far more likely to get now). However, I don't know what the events were like before because I never...

I also didn't even bother to try the proud mode missions because I had such weak medals. Now, after I got a bunch of powerful medals, I've been having fun playing proud mode, playing the events (or at least playing the events as far as I can), and completing as many mission objectives as I can that I wasn't able to complete before because of how much I suck at being good at games. I've also been having fun leveling up my Keyblades and buying as many medals as I can with the...

I'm not aiming to get in an argument either. I was just stating things from my point of view. I don't just play the story missions. I used to just play the story missions, and I was really bad at strategizing so most of the mission objectives remained incomplete. Also, because of how bad I was at strategizing, I didn't even bother to try the events back in the day, except maybe every once and a while. I also didn't even bother to try the proud mode missions because I had...

In fact, I think that it is easier than ever to become powerful enough to breeze though all of the story missions. However, if you are in to the competitive side, then I can understand why you don't like the game, but I personally don't understand why that justifies a one star rating since there are so many other things in the game to enjoy in my opinion.

I personally am not in to the competetive side of the game. All I care about is the story, completing as many missions as possible, and unlocking as much as I can. Since this is a game in which you need to spend money in order to get everything, I don't care about getting everything. I just care about getting as much as I can. So, from that standpoint, the game isn't bad at all. In fact, I think that it is easier than ever to become powerful enough to breeze through all of the st...

Xehanort and Xehanort was a close second, but Sora, Donald, and Goofy are the best "pair" of friends in my opinion. If we are talking about romantic couples though, I would have to go with Sora and Kairi. Seeing those two finally end up together in Kingdom Hearts III is my biggest hope for the game.

I would agree with this except, long before 0.2 came out, Birth by Sleep Final Mix came out and showed Aqua discover the Castle of Dreams in the Dark World at the end of the Secret Episode. Nomura said that 0.2 is that story that he wanted to tell but never did. So, it seems to me that Nomura always planned for Aqua to discover that the worlds fell to darkness. Also, as other people have said, from what King Mickey told Aqua, it doesn't seem like she would have much of a reason to think that Sora was the one saving the worlds.

Goofy! He's not only my favorite character from the Mickey universe but also my favorite character of all time!

I have two answers to this question. My least favorite world overall is Atlantica from Kingdom Hearts II. I actually really like Atlantica in Kingdom Hearts 1 and think that it gets too much hate, but Atlantica in Kingdom Hearts II seems almost pointless to me since there is no world to explore and you can only play rhythm minigames. However, as far as a regular world (meaning a world that you get to actually explore and do things in) that is my least favorite, I think that would be either Wonderland or Land of Dragons, but I'm leaning toward Wonderland. I don't exactly know why Wonderland is my least favorite since I think that it is actually one of the most unique worlds in the entire Kingdom Hearts series. There's just something about it that makes it my least favorite world. I just can't put my finger on it.

I'm most excited for the Toy Story versions of Sora, Donald, and Goofy. I have always wanted to get a Sora action figure but never got around to buying one. Then, I saw the Toy Story reveal trailer and immediately started hoping that those versions of them would be turned into action figures, which was confirmed to be happening shortly afterwards. I thought that if I was going to own any Sora action figure, it should be the actual action figure version of Sora. Since then, I was anxiously waiting for them to go on sale. So, once they were revealed to be coming out exclusively with the Kingdom Hearts III limited edition, I bought that thing in a heartbeat.

Now I'm picturing Master Xehanort at a claw machine trying to get a Kingdom Hearts plushie as all of the other Xehanorts watch him and cheer him on.
