They classified these terms as different things entirely as a heart is basically a soul of sorts and the memories within are tangible experiences of the heart/soul. A world that is "fictional" to them means they can't exactly comprehend what keeps that world outside of the influence or knowledge of their own. Basically Yozora is in his own game as are the other FF characters their plot happens regardless of what goes on in KH universe. They just had to try and cram this as a plot point into the game and do it in another unnecessarily cryptic way to not straight up break immersion.

[@BlokHeadAnim]

Same. Beast literally being so angry in KH1 that he refused to die with his world like a side character and willed his way into the party also comes to mind. There's a lot of supporting character stuff that goes under the radar too, but is still super important in the grand scheme of things. Like: - The copy of the Tron computer that Ansem used was probably the origin of Vexan's idea for the replicas, being able to take a person's entire being and turn it into data that can be copied and redistributed. Replica technology is just the Tron beam but applied in a different way. "Data" versions of characters are just replicas that don't have a physical body. - Will's sacrifice in the Pirates of the Caribbean world likely giving Sora the idea to sacrifice himself to save Kairi, even if it meant they couldn't be together. Etc, etc.

[@RenoDojima]

@@BlokHeadAnim I get that, too. A lot of the events that happen do get foreshadowed in the storyline through the Disney worlds' plots, but the one thing I miss about the story is how we got the villains interacting with each other in KH1. I know there's the whole "world order" thing that Donald explains, which is for the best, but it really would have been nice to see others interact through the whole story as well. Hercules definitely plays a role in Sora's growth through advice, like he gave him in KH3 about inner strength. It's like I would be asking too much for the Disney characters to interfere with Sora's side of the story while he's in their world, but it's just my thoughts on it. Edit: the one time I can think where some slight involvement that was pretty badass to me was when Woody was talking smack to Young Xehanort, but it would really be nice to see some more interaction like that.

Both Sora and Yozora are meet each other at World Terminus (Final World), a border world between reality and unreality. They had a clash each other. But, at the end, neither they were sure whether they are real or not. In our perspective, Quadratum is real and Kingdom Hearts is fictional. In their perspective, Kingdom Hearts is real and Quadratum is fictional. However, it becomes vague when reality and unreality are in line together. And then Riku, Kairi and Nameless Star will join together to find Sora at Quadratum. Now, for the possibilities: Ventus will have a task to gather his old comrades: Lauriam, Ephemer, Skuld, and Brain in order to find Strelitzia. Aqua and Terra may helps him too. Master Ava, along with MoM, are at Fictional World. Soon, the other masters (Aced, Invi, Luxu, Ira, Gula) will follow them. Terra might also has a clue since he was once at the world of nothingness. Maybe he will bring back Xehanort's comrades (Eraqus, Vor, Hermod, Urd, Bragi, and Baldr) to help Sora and his friends. Roxas, Xion, Axel and Isa will have a task to find "Subject X".

he lied to her, and remember the machine has another function, as it can send people to another world, that was the original purpose of the machine. besides that's how Maleficent escaped the data world, and went back to the real world before time travelling. so basically Kairi was sent to Destiny Islands that way, with the help of Aqua's spell. though I think this one is different machine as this is in radiant garden, instead of daybreak town, considering daybreak town is beneath scala ad caelum. So Kairi did not time travel, as she is still the same age as Sora

[@mertocenknaruto2895]

@@TheDoremifan1 Xehanort didn't lie to her. The original purpose of the machine is to travel to worlds. The one in UX is not a completed one and because of this reason the machine in UX has a malfunction which allows to time travel to the future. This is like you said how Maleficient returned in KH2. Apprentice Xehanort during BBS time (the end of BBS) wanted really to save Radiant Garden but he did use Kairi (Princesses of Heart) as an experiment and hoped that she would find a Keyblade Master who rescues Radiant Garden. In KH1 and KH2 this became full circle since Sora saved Hollow Bastion (aka Radiant Garden). (Read Ansem Report 11) The Quote and Apprentice Xehanorts true purposes: "I know the catalyst of the collapse, the appearance of the Heartless. However, it will take time to search out the worlds' doors, and to retrieve each heart. Furthermore, the doors can be locked using a Keyblade making the heart forever unattainable. I must take action before the wielder of this key appears in this world." And yeah Aqua's spell on Kairi had also a influence, without the spell maybe Kairi would now be in Quadratum instead of Destiny Island.

Okay so I'm less than a minute into this narration, and I gotta say I wish they'd put some personality into their script, even if it is supposed to be just her reading lines straight from a sheet of paper. Give her a chuckle, or a dreary sigh. Lamenting. Something. Memories and stories bring up thoughts and emotions. What would easily make this more entertaining is if this was partially about Kairi reacting to her memories and all these past events. What did she think about it all? Show me a little flair, KH team. Put some effort into it. Like, this is literally making me want to watch the flashback episode in Legend of Korra right now.

[@vindifference]

@@edea_oblige Exactly, a text book! That's the problem. This is a *text book* monologue, when it should be an action/adventure character narration. It's not good game content. She *should* be retelling the story in an interpersonal way. Doesn't matter if it's to an audience, or literally just to herself in a journal or novel. The fact that she's using first person pronouns for herself means that she should have every liberty to put her own thoughts in. But they treat it like a grade school text book instead. Your point just highlights further why it's a problem.

[@jollama]

@@edea_oblige Get ratioed

[@EvolvedLifeForm69]

That's how bland her dialog is in every game

[@kirara2516]

It's square's style. At least their directors. They did the same thing for things like Advent Children's voice actors. At least the English ones. Perfect example is Steve Burton. He's got great range and ability. He even sings and tells jokes on his KZbin channel "Stone Cold and the Jackel" but the directors made him sound hollow, and monotone. I think its so they don't outshine the Japanese voice actors because they have different (and stronger) rights to their characters.

[@dustydave961]

This is the follow up to KH3 that we needed... When I first heard about it, I thought it was just a noncanon spinoff about music, but it's so much more than that. I'm so glad Kairi is training under Aqua, too. Kairi has already gotten stronger, but she's going to go so much farther, and now we know Sora is not lost forever. Thank you so much for putting this compilation together. Edit: This game is a blessing and a curse... I'm glad Sora's okay and we'll probably get him back, but now I really want the next game to come out and don't know what to do while I wait...

[@eternalpain7762]

Okay, but is no one gonna talk about the new Verum Rex/Yozora song that played in the second-to-last cutscne??? The part at 44:54 drove me insane when I first heard it. To be honest, I'm kinda mad that the KH3 OST just released, because now it means that we'll have to wait years before getting that song, since the OST can't be ripped from pre-rendered cutscenes.

[@offthesplat5863]

Kairi: What does that mean Me: U Finally understand me

[@lucasartgames]

"why does the fairy godmother know where the border between sleep and death is and none of the Norts do?" Xehanort is exceptionally good at avoiding death as I'm sure we all know. For that matter, so are literally all the other characters. They either split into heartless and nobodies, and or scuttle into some other person's heart like a frightened crab. Even the only canonical human main cast death we saw was retconned with Eraqus when terra spit him up like a hairball in Xehanorts lap. It's literally no wonder none of these characters ever learned that this place existed.

She's come a long way from letting Xemnas just drag her off and standing there while Terranort gets ready to slam a key on her head.

[@Hexalys13]

Are we just gonna ignore the fact that Kairi turned into Sora? Like WTF?! HOW, NOMURA???

[@hyperfairy7779]

Honestly, I find that they had Sora literally replacing Kairi absolutely disgusting. If they wanted to show the connection between Sora and Kairi and that Kairi gets her strengh from Sora, they could of had an apperation appear behind her like when Micky was shooting that giant keyhole in KH re-mind DLC, but no, they literally robbed Kairi of a chance to develop as a charicter and face her fears head on And I'm not saying Kairi could beat Xehanort alone. In my scenario she is still relying on support from Sora, just in a much less disrespectful manner. I also think it's worth noting that while Sora did do most of the work, Kairi was able to put up a good fight in Re:mind against goat armour Xehanort, a foe stronger than any other seekers of darkness that the gaurdians of light struggled against. So she can definitely fight pretty well

[@Hexalys13]

@@hyperfairy7779 Yeah, the developers just can’t seem to make up their mind on what they want Kairi to be. I get that she’s newer to the Keyblade than most of the others. Technically she’s only had her Keyblade a couple weeks longer than Axel, (although it doesn’t feel like it since to she got her Keyblade back in 2006) so of course she’s untrained and essentially a novice. I can swallow her needing training in KH3, but if she was good enough to fight in the Keyblade War, then shouldn’t she be done with that? From how the others acted, (Riku not letting her go after Sora and Yen Sid instantly asking if she’d continue her training, like she abandoned it halfway through or something) it felt like she was still considered a novice. If that’s how they want to portray her, and it’s certainly galling don’t get me wrong, then they need to give us moments where she succeeds in battle. Every fight, few though they were, she struggled against her opponent before ultimately losing. Like being grabbed by Xemnas or defeated by the memory of Xehanort. The only victory she had was against Xehanort’s armor and it’s tainted because Sora was there too. She’s handled with kid gloves all the time. I’m never been a huge Kairi fan, mostly just indifferent, but even I find her character development insulting.

[@prodigous21]

​@@Hexalys13 well it makes sense she would struggle against her memory of Xehanort, her last real memory of him was him killing her (sorta) so that is probably at play here and the reason she cant do anything. I get people want to see Kairi do something besides be the on the sidelines but this is probably a way of setting her up to do more and a step in the right direction is training under Aqua who is a badass in her own right.

[@hyperfairy7779]

@@prodigous21 unfortunately, even aqua got netured hard in KH3, losing every fight she was in, and even then, it's hard to have faith when Evey bit of Kairi build up has been a tease... it's almost disgusting how they've been baiting us with promises that Kairi will be useful since KH 2 and then shafting her every single time, and using the same lie to hype up every new release Kairi has a keyblade now! Can't wait for her to be useful in the next game! Kairi is traning under yen sid! Can't wait for her to be useful in the next game! Kairi is in a secret world where time doesn't flow giving her unlimited time to train with Lea under Merlin, can't wait for her to be useful in the keyblade war and the next game! Kairi will be traning under aqua, why should I beleave them Kairi will be useful when they've lied to us since KH2, they are just keeping Kiari weak so they can keep baiting us into buying future games in hopes she actually does something. For that traning to mean anything, we need a Kairi and aqua game, or at least cutscenes of them traning, not just sitting around talking
