I was loving this description (absolutely loving it, for: the talk of how Sora used to want to see worlds, his sense of justice getting brought up again, the idea that Sora's realized everything's gone according to how Master Xehanort wanted it to--perhaps hinting at the more mature Sora in this game we've heard about--and even that they called him "dashing" like Merry-Weather does was really, really great), and then I got to the part where they didn't mention Kairi.
And before someone jumps down my throat (because I know I'm always complaining about her, and tbh I know it gets old and I sympathize with you guys always having to hear that from me all the time), I was fine with it at first--when it was just talking about what everyone's doing in III, because I realized maybe they want to keep what she's doing secret; or maybe she's training all of III, and so it wouldn't be worth mentioning it--but then they listed all of Sora's closest friends in the last paragraph and not her.
I can't. I just can't, guys.
They're never going to learn their lesson, and this series is never going to get better about her. Are they? If anything, it just seems to get worse, as this is twice now that we've heard lately about the friendships that make up this series, where Kairi isn't mentioned even once (what Hashimoto said a while back, I mean).
And you know, I'm somewhat irked that they didn't mention Naminé, either, because she's also one of Sora's top friends.
The part about Aqua being battle hardened (or whatever the exact wording was) sounded really good, though--and tells me that they're taking her development from the end of BbS and her time in the Dark Realm very seriously and I'm glad for that.
Despite what you guys might be thinking, all-in-all, I enjoyed this summary (there really are some things of interest here, and things I'm hopeful about, too); and it's just nice to finally know more about KHIII's story after all this time.
But I hate how this series since Coded, I'd say (and if we're being technical, since CoM), has tried to make Kairi disappear and has acted like she never existed. Just sayin'. (I'm really starting to think Blackdrazon is absolutely right, about all the writers/developers just deciding that they didn't like Kairi partway through KHII's creation, which would explain a lot, actually.)
And Naminé could use a bit more love, too, imo.
