Interestingly enough, Kanemaki isn't just credited for the novels specifically, but also the Editing/Writing for the book in general, amongst others. As for the canonicity of the novelizations (and these short stories), I believe there are a lot of ways someone can approach an understanding of...

Nyuck Nyuck

My pre-order is ready to go.

Ooooh baby, here we go again

Spockanort and Chaser are throwing me off with the twinsies avatars lol Anyway, I don't think it's too big of a deal for the game to be split up like this. I guess. It's only with prior knowledge of a complete story does it seem weird, but maybe this first game will be told so well that the...

That first scene is so in-depth and all, but I'm too distracted by that lucky emblem lol

If I see "Aerith Lives" somewhere on a wall I'll be very happy lol

I feel like I'm still getting used to this way of things of how games strive to improve their products after distribution. But at the very least, at least these updates are free.

Where did I say it can't be seen as the conclusion of anything? Don't twist my words man. KH3 is the conclusion of the Xehanort plot line specifically, this does not mean that it is the conclusion of the bonds between the characters—this being significant of the characters having more story...

Your expectation of KH3 being the moment of climactic, romantic confirmation is the basis of your argument—which I have proven isn't reflective on what is still currently integrated between the specified relationship. If Sora and his friends journey was never meant to be concluded in the...

If actions that are, in nature, shared between the spectrum of romance and platonic are given meaning then by those who perform them, then there’s nothing left to discuss here. The meaning is set by the context, which in this particular case, is the aspect of what has been established as the...

I definitely do not agree that Sora alone not initiating certain contact is the sign that those feelings aren't there. They simultaneously reach out for each other when they reunite in the ethereal space (as well as simultaneously lingering with one of their hands), they are both willing holding...

If this is meant to suggest that romance is not an accompanying factor of the representation of Sora and Kairi's relationship, this isn't entirely correct. For Sora and Kairi, there are many things that could be inferred here from the meaning of his confusion-whether by the sudden, off-guard...

Your statements don't represent what I said at all, so I'm not sure why you're saying what you are here. But, i'll try to address it as much as I can. In regards to romantic subtext, this specification is set by the context. If it is not specified to be exclusice to romantic ideals in the...

Again, the context is what defines the subtext and gives it meaning. Any situation that has subtext abides by this to explain how it is being utilized. Nothing I have said has negated this, but i'll bite. If romantic subtext is presented to a pair of people in the context, this is still...
