You know, I really like the idea about the Datascape, Journal, and the Tomes of Prophecy being connected. It's a natural evolution, I feel, that makes a lot of sense--seeing what we knew about these kinds of things before--unlike most of the series' twists. In fact, I sort of feel like we should have predicted this xD.
Also, I love, love, love what they're doing with Maleficent's character now. I was so irritated about her going for the Data Worlds before, since it felt so pointless and that they were just trying to keep her in the plot in some microscopic way, but now I think it's golden and that it actually feels like something she'd do.
Anyway, let us all give a round of applause to the mastermind behind this all, Nomura, who I've doubted and belittled way too much. Sure he doesn't always tell the story in the best way possible--and some things we could've done without, probably--but it takes a real genius to weave a story together like this together. Wow. My hat goes off to you, Nomura-san.
My only concern now is just how they're going to fit all of this into III in a good way, like some others have said, and I also don't like the idea that if you recreate the events from the book you can bring the people in it back to life?
I thought the only way to come back in KH was to go to "sleep", and then have someone have the Key to Return Hearts or something. This just seems like another way to save people, and I don't really like that. This series has enough of a problem all ready with its characters not staying dead, so--
Also... Chi so needs to be localized now. No doubt about that, if we're expected to understand everything in III, anyway.
And OMG. Re:Coded is so important now--and actually was all along--ahh! I'll never doubt you again, Re:Coded. I promise.
