Chasm

Well also based on the trailer we see Xehanort surrounded by a bunch of other No Name keyblades. If anything they'll be using those.

Whoa that's deep.

Well personally I don't think any other member fits in the criteria. As far as we know, they haven't been through the Keyblade Inheritance Ceremony. Then again it have happened off screen..

Ifrits Flame!

A friend of mine sent this to me and I haven't seen anyone talking about it. What could this mean? Is the Keyblade Graveyard the ruins of the Scala Ad Caelum? If so is more Time Travel involved? Did Kingdom Hearts bring this world back? What do you guys think?

I'm just really hoping it'll be Ifrit lol

Didn't say they weren't. I said the model didn't look the same.

I totally see Aqua feeling some kind of way for basically shaming Terra because he fell to darkness when she basically does the same.

I saw the HUD. The model just didn't look different to me.

Hasn't been long enough.

I don't think it was a Young Sora. Just looked like KH2 Sora in KH1 clothing.

Lea knowing Ven, but hasn't mentioned anything....until now. I wonder why.

They had time to cut it down lol

There's just a lot of contradicting things so i don't really believe it. Like a user said, they are missing confirmed worlds for this list so based on that alone i don't really believe it. A lot of it sounded dark enough for me to get behind, but again too many contradictions.

I just need this pro.

I think it's illogical to think that just because Nintendo chose the dlc it doesnt mean we won't be getting certain characters. It just means that they had things planned for a while.

He still has his Terranort voice. I wonder if that means anything.

I watched the trailer maybe...5 or 6 times and it wasn't until the 6th time that his line "Who are you?" stood out. He SHOULD know exactly who that is. What's going on here? Did Terranort fall to amnesia again? If so what could come out of this?

What's the on going theory here guys? I'm leaning towards the Unchained Realm that's been lightly mentioned in KHUX. It seems Sora meets Chirithy there. Perhaps it's a world in the Realm of Sleep we haven't seen yet? Sora IS seen alone here with a bunch of...clone like Soras lol. What do you guys think?

No one believed me!

A friend of mine think he sees the nobody symbol. I didnt see it at first, but I started to. Anyone else?

This is a good point. Extremely overused.

Well i think it would be fairly obvious in this sense, which is why i think it shouldn't be done. Nomura has never been this upfront with us. Like others have said, Terra fits the bill for sacrificial lamb more than Riku. If Riku were to die i know it would impact Sora, but i don't necessarily think it would do well to impact Sora on a level we haven't seen him. I mean sure, he would probably be incredibly sad and it would force him to mature, but seeing Sora so close to darkness kinda feels off as a character development.

See my understanding when it comes to death in KH is that it HAS happened, but people tend to return in the way the universe allows it. For example, all of Organization 13 died. Their nobody counterparts are NOT their somebodies. A Better example would be Ansem and Xemnas. They are dead. Finished. Defeated. Obliterated. They come back due to time travel. They still died. Eraqus' is special because we KNOW keyblade masters can transfer their hearts and i believe right before he died he did just that with Terra. I get the "Nobody dies in Kingdom Hearts" thing, but people have died. I think the better term to coin would be "Everyone comes back in Kingdom Hearts".

This was another point of mine. When Nomura says some characters aren't returning post KH3 that could just mean some are leaving this life behind. I can see the Sea Salt Trio leaving just to hang with each other. It's just odd that people immediately thought "Riku is gonna die". I can be wrong. I just think if anyone is going to go the "I need to redeem myself so i'll sacrifice my life" trope then it would be Terra. Riku, imo, is too developed in a cast of under developed characters. If anything, he should be brought along to usher in the new times in KH4.
