Kingdom Hearts III Pre-Release Spoiler Discussion Thread

Depends on the kids. Him being gentle towards Hayner Pence Olette isn't that out of character. He has been shown to be a caring man before the series started. He took in Ienzo as a child and cared for the apprentices as his children. He became cruel because they betrayed him and he wanted revenge.

Him working with Ienzo to bring back Namine at the end could be considered out of character but he was given a strong desire to make amends when he popped up in blank points so it's just a culmination of that thread.

Spoiler Show

It could be both someone important to Isa and someone we already met. Isa feels more attached to her so it could be a girlfriend or family or just someone he was closer with than Lea. Because Nomura is willing to have Ventus and Marluxia be from the Union era, having other characters make the jump is possible.

So having her be Skuld who became Isa's girlfriend, adoptive older sister, or a new friend is a possible answer.

hes referring to seeker of darkness, not Ansem the Wise

So by collecting 300 crabs, you unlock the Black Pearl.

Yay for Donald being slightly useful in the fight against the baddies while he normally couldn’t be bothered to cast Curaga in times of need.

I think zettaflare follows the pattern of mega-, giga-, and teraflare. After all, zetta is a Greek prefix signifying the order of 10^21 (one billion trillion), in the same fashion that mega, giga, and tera is for one million, one billion, and one trillion respectively.

Spoiler Show

Slightly, he had the best offensive action while everyone else reflexes were shot to hell. The "Donald Dont !" got me though, clearly this is a last resort spell. I dont know why Mickey didn't heal him though. I was expecting something cinematic. The KH2 secret movie was such a real battle, and it could hear look great in this engine. Now I cant believe that aqua and ven were even their.

ohhhhhhh.

never mind the first part.

 

[Graceful Schemer]

Also, I'm still confused as to why Nomura said Roxas was the biggest secret in KH3. He...really isn't.

What's the point of continuing the PoH schtick and assigning new ones?

If the implication of Larxene's line is what I think it is, the fact that she followed the Organization along because of a man is just the cherry on top that we needed to how trash the series treats their female characters.

Spoiler Show

Right? It was such a random line to put in. I hope we at least get some more context on it in KHUx.

Spoiler Show

I do not see an issue here? Following UX closely, I already got that vibe when she apparently acted out of character for her Chirithy. I mean, if she (Larxene) acts following him (Marluxia) and said him acts in accordance with his sister, that is female-->male-->female.

On another subject:

Spoiler Show

I know people mentioning Star being Skuld, citing her star designs, but Ephemera and Skuld's current canon keyblades are Starlights, so not necessarily the case. (Ephemera's clothes are literally White Overalls, the first male UX avatar board.) And, UX's characters' names down to their spellings are supposed to be relevant, so unless you can relate Skuld as a name to Star, not seeing the connection yet. Skuld is all about Norse and/or Norn, no?

....is Luxu Xigbar?? Those reports were. Things that happened.

When the leaker does everything story-related but little Disney world-related?

Wha…?

Yup. Luxu is Xigbar. Things just got a hell of a lot more interesting

 

[faemarch]

Spoiler Show

So...the secret reports. I'm fairly certain that the "Nameless Star" character referred to by Ansem and Saix/Lea is Skuld. Apprenticenort, in his reports, describes "her" to be about 15, and "her" own report mentions four friends and a Key, which I'm positive is a reference to the Union Leaders.

As for Luxu's heart being passed through time, body to body, to Braig. Gotta say I'm even more interested in the coming updates for UX now. Seemed to me that Luxu's goal in the end was to summon the MoM or the other "Lost" Foretellers? Maybe we'll see something in the epilogue/secret movie concerning the chi crew, considering that their VAs are in the credits too.

The reports from Ienzo were great, too. I'm certainly happy to see Ienzo getting a bit more spotlight in KH3.

 

[Squood!]

After all this time, the theorists were right about something being up with Xiggy, talking about how he might be playing a long con or whatever.

 

[Insomniac]

I’m going to guess based on what the Secret Reports just revealed, that Brain is Strelitzia’s killer and Ephemer is the first of Luxu’s chosen weilders of the No Name keyblade.

I bet you anything that Daybreak Town enters a second battle that destroys the whole place, leaving it in ruins. Some of the Dandelions manage to seal themselves away (think Chain of Memories pods) and have their memories wiped. This includes Ventus, Skuld, Lauriam, Elrena, etc. Blaine will be revealed to be the Luxu successor and traitor, and survive the battle. Overtop of the ruins of Daybreak Town they build Scala ad Caelum, and years later the Dandelions reawaken. Skuld ends up in Radiant Garden where she becomes friends with Lea and Isa. Luxu's heart passes down to Braig. After Xehanort's defeat Braig will be recompleted and continue Luxu's goal. Master of Masters is villain of KH4 onwards.

Still wondering about that diddlying box though!! Does anyone have information about it? Anyone at all? Maleficent and Pete and even Luxord were looking for it in KH3 but we haven't seen any of that in the Keyblade Graveyard footage...

Hey. Hey guys. ​H A Y G U Y Z

Remember 2.5 Re:Coded's second secret ending?

How Braig's expression was focused on when YX talked about how MX's keyblade was his destiny?

also you can apprently return to cloud world so yeah if ya wanna just run around there the game aint stoppin ya

 

[sorawild]

Spoiler Show

and I'm taking the Xion and Namine shell collection bit as confirmation that they are about to be dating, and since I won't be considering anything that happens after this game remotely relevant Nomura can never prove me wrong.

You do remember the ending credits scene of DDD showed only Disney couples and near the end showed Roxas and Namine right? And even then there was the ending scene of KH2 right before the credits. I know you are desperate for a gay relationship in KH, but you are really reaching with the seashell collection there pal.

My good windboi is safe, thank god.

 

[Graceful Schemer]

Okay, with the latest leak, arguably the most informative of them all, I have several new perspectives:

Spoiler Show

I can see Skuld being Star now. Star being Namine somehow like many are following from another leaker does not seem as farfetched since they seemingly never meets her in the light. Although, that would be really awkward. This is arguably the most informative and no waste of a set of Secret Reports. I'm actually impressed with all these information and all those who should have a report have one. Yeah, UX is not relevant at all apparently (Sarcasm). Being more serious though, I'm even more excited about the hidden cutscenes than I was. I would like to at least see those who are not in the Ending Sequence in one of the two upcoming materials.

 

[DraceEmpressa]

okay someone correct me...

Spoiler Show

so is Braig a vessel of the body surfing Luxu, or is he amnesiac Luxu?

If it's the former, meaning Luxu is also cohabitating Braig's heart with Xehanort? Like Eraqus and Xehanort within Terra?

Nice job leaving off the spoiler tags and revealing to every one that there is a 100% canon confirmed gay relationship at the end of KH3 that you are just in denial about.

Vessel. He most likely either took control and mimicked Braig's personality, or used Braig to his advantage.

The guy was freaking dedicated to that role of his, I'll tell ya hwat.
