PrinceNoctis 1,011 Posted March 23, 2017 I'm happy about this to be honest...I feared they were gonna make it some ugly computer-animated thing like today's typical TV shows. If Kingdom Hearts is to be on TV, they should make a beautiful hand-drawn animated show à la "Legend of Korra". 1 Felixx reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whatever it looks like, the storyboards revealed previously were drawn many years ago (around 2002-2003 I think). His drawing surely has improved since. I would personally love to see an adaptation of the KH manga written by Shiro Amano. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They will probably work on it after KH3 when it is quiet. Edited March 23, 2017 by KH4Real Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But if they do manage to get the Avatar team to work on it, then I'd be waaay less worried about it and would actually look forward for it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PrinceNoctis 1,011 Posted March 23, 2017 Don´t insult flash animation or CG like seriously not everything must look an anime. Oops, sorry. I should be more careful with my words. Flash animation isn't ugly, neither is CG. It works great for certain shows like Steven Universe or the new Mickey Mouse shorts. My point was that KH would work better with hand-drawn animation. I just went a bit too far with my comments. Sorry. Seth Kearsley said multiple times that he personally wants to get the animators responsible for The Legend of Kora to work on the KH show.

KeybladeLordCheeseCurd 1,542 Posted March 24, 2017 While this is pretty sad, at least there's still a chance for it to happen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hero of Light XIV 2,381 Posted March 24, 2017 Awwww man, I really thought they'd actually be smart and jump on this money boat for a change! Oh well, at least it's not ruled out entirely. Still, I would have thought that they'd have caught on to the hype and attention that KH has been garnering, and how much more money they would make off of it if they just capitalized on marketing it more like their other products. Guess that just means that we have to keep making more noise and waves everywhere we go. More fan works, more cosplay gatherings at theme parks, more direct messages to Disney that we want more Kingdom Hearts everything. Even if they didn't jump at the chance here, it certainly feels like they're slowly catching on to KH's potential, so maybe in time they might change their mind and give the go-ahead for this little pilot after all. I just hope we don't have to wait another 10 years to see it happen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Transcendent Key 12,109 Posted March 24, 2017 Thanks for sharing this with us, Shinobi! Aw man, seriously!? Why won't anyone see that Seth is trying to do the Kingdom Hearts series justice by adapting it into an amazing show!? He himself has said he'd honor the source material! And the fact that the whole thing would be hand drawn would be even more badass, since the 2-D art style would definitely fit with Kingdom Hearts! Well, it looks like this will be another story saved for another side, another time, another place...and hopefully, Disney will greenlight Seth's project! I think that at this point, we'll get this show after the conclusion of the Xehanort Saga, so that way, the show can buy time while Nomura plans for the next saga! 1 The 13th Kenpachi reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dezarius 18 Posted March 24, 2017 I am sort of relieved, game to film adaptions have a bad track record. There is plenty of KH around to get my fill without this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
