Translation of Tangled, Winnie the Pooh, and Twilight Town screenshots and world blurbs reveal new Water spell and minor plot elements in Kingdom Hearts III

[Aquaberry 759]

New screenshots from the worlds of Kingdom of Corona, Hundred Acre Wood, and Twilight Town have been released, along with new information on the plot of Kingdom Hearts III in the form of cutscene subtitles and world blurbs from the official Japanese Kingdom Hearts III website!

From this information, we can confirm that:

• A new form of magic, "Water", is present in the game; this screenshot shows "Watara" in green.
• Marluxia is helping Gothel get Rapunzel back.
• Rapunzel is one of the new Princesses of Heart.
• Pascal and Maximus are present in the story.
• Sora is told by Merlin that the cover of the Winnie the Pooh book has changed, and dives into the world of the book to investigate it.
• Pete and Maleficent have found many "black boxes", but they have turned out to be not the one they were looking for.
• Elsa is being chased by the Heartless.
• Luxord declares parlay to Jack Sparrow in order to talk about how he is also looking for a black box.

KH13 News Team staff Mio-chan, xionskeyblade, and NihonScribe have kindly translated them for us. They are as follow.

Kingdom of Corona (from Tangled)

The setting of this world is from the movie Tangled. Rapunzel lived in a tower since she was young. She always hoped to leave and go see by herself the lights that appear every year at her birthday. She finally gather her courage, and along the way she encounters Flynn. But her mother, Gothel, goes after her. And it seems that Marluxia from Organization XIII is willing to help her. Just what is his goal…?

	“Agreed!” (or "We got this!" in context)
	“Just give up.”
	“They are finally having their parent and child reunion, so be quiet and watch.”
	“Her daughter, Rapunzel, is an important light to this world.”
	“I’ll do anything to find it.”
	“I worry so much about you.”

(The following screenshot seems to take place in Kingdom of Corona, but it could easily be somewhere else.)

"But where? We have no other choice than to follow them."

Hundred Acre Wood (from the Winnie the Pooh series)

The setting of the world is from the series Winnie The Pooh. Sora, who was told by Merlin that Pooh’s book cover changed, decided to visit the 100 Acre Wood to investigate its cause. A troubled Rabbit awaited him there…

	“You sure love fruits, Lumpy!”
	“Rabbit has grown flowers just for Pooh’s sake, right?”
	“Wait! It’s not over yet. Next up, we have to harvest fruits from the garden.”
	“Sora, next up is the flower garden, but..”
	“… Instead of greeting me, can you tell me if you had troubles or noticed anything unusual?”

Awesome scans here. Thanks for translating these guys. Plus, I have a feeling there are more worlds left to be revealed. Also, it was pretty obvious that Rapunzel was going to be one of the new Seven Princess of Hearts in Kingdom Hearts 3 along with Kairi.

It would be very interesting to have Bolt as a thunder-element summon while Olaf or Elsa would end up being a blizzard-element summon 

[Master Keeper 687]

It's disappointing that we are having 100 Acre Woods within a book one more time and probably for the same lame reasons, but I guess I am glad for the welcoming of the water spell within the series of KH after a long time, I can only hope we could reach to the "-za" level of elements to all of the magic spells

Thank you for sharing this with us, Aquaberry!

These are all such exciting scans, and I love the world logos! I wonder if all these scans indicate a new trailer coming up soon? After all, Nomura did say that another trailer was incoming this month, so  it's not out of the realm of possibility! This is awesome!
