Hey everyone! Oathy here with some news on the North American front, for the first time in a while. It looks like Disney Adventures magazine (you can usually pick up a copy in the checkout area of your local grocery store) has been getting the scoop on Kingdom Hearts developments as they come in.

As Amazon.com has already mentioned, the Kingdom Hearts II Manga is scheduled for release on July 9th, 2007. The magazine put a nice big reminder on their July calendar. Be sure to pick up your copy when it arrives! I know I will! =b

They also featured Haley Joel Osment (Sora) and Will Friedle (Seifer) in a little section about connecting actors to other actors in the "six degrees of separation" sense.

Most interesting, though, was Disney Adventures' response to the thousands of letters they've received, asking, "When is Kingdom Hearts III coming out?" They took the opportunity to speak directly to Nomura himself and get a few answers. The article reads:

Q: Will there be a Kingdom Hearts III and when does it come out? Kingdom Hearts I and II are awesome, and I'm the game's #1 fan. --Christopher D., 13, Miami, FL
We received a stack of letters just like yours, Christopher, with gamers everywhere wanting to know about Kingdom Hearts III. To get the inside scoop, we went straight to the games' director Tetsuya Nomura! "Creating the Kingdom Hearts series has been such a joy for me - especially because fans like you enjoy the experience so much. We have made no announcements regarding any sequels. However, I can tell you that a new project related to Kingdom Hearts is in the works." Be patient, Sora fans. It sounds like there will be a new game announced soon!

Well, that's that! It looks like Nomura hasn't forgotten about the games' fans overseas. We'll keep you updated!

Thanks so much to Tomo at KHN for the scoop.
