Kingdom Hearts Year Differences

[Master Eraqus 1,340]

I have something that's been bothering me for quite some time and need someone to answer it.

 

I know this so far:

 

Birth By Sleep takes place ten years before Kingdom Hearts 1

Kingdom Hearts Chain Of Memories takes place right after Kingdom Hearts 1

Kingdom Hearts 2 takes place a year after Kingdom Hearts 1

During that year was Kingdom Hearts 358/2 days

 

My question:

Does Kingdom Hearts coded or Dream Drop Distance take place a year after Kingdom Hearts 2 or sometime after it.

So, the KH wiki says that coded (I suppose re:coded is the same then, but I'm not sure cause I didn't finish it yet) takes place between the finale of Kingdom Hearts II and it's epiloque. That means between the end when Riku und Sora come back to Destiny Islands and reunite with Kairi, Donald, Goofy and Mickey and the scene when they get the bottle with the letter in it.

Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance, I think, happens right after the scene with the letter. But there could likely be some days between.

All up including KH3 the time would have taken 13 years yes we all know what you are getting at.

Thanks, cause in the KH DDD journal, when I read the characters about Aqua, Terra and Ventus, it says that their story took place a dozen years before KH DDD, which got me confused.

I guess that makes sense.

Actually I looked that up just now . It says so in Aqua's and Ventus' character files yeah. In Terra's though, it says: "One of the Keyblade welders who played a pivotal role in a historic clash more than a decade ago." That would be the more exact statement, as it is indeed more than a decade between BBS and Dream Drop Distance.

Short answer: KH3 is going to take place in the 13th year of the chronology.

 

 

Long answer:

Birth by Sleep happens. In the following year, Radiant Garden falls, nine years after that KH1 happens. There is a year exactly between Sora's sacrifice and KH2.

(Roxas was inducted into the Organization on that day, was in the Organization for 357 days following that, and then seven days in Twilight Town, bringing it to 365 days, a full year.) And here is where things get foggy. The events between the start of KH2 and DDD must take at least a year, we know this because the Journal entries for Aqua, Terra and Ventus all say that the events of Birth by Sleep happened over a dozen years prior. (Aqua's character profile confirms this, stating "...played a pivotal role in a historic clash more than a dozen years ago.") Assuming the events of DDD take up a few months, then a handful of  months inbetween, this leads us to assume that KH3 is going to take place in the 13th year of the chronology.

Not exactly. The files say "more" than a decade, to say this first. Exactly a decade would be more correct if we were talking about KH1, because KH1 happens 10 years after BBS. It is not exactly known how much time lies between the end of KH2 and the scene where the three receive the bottle letter. And it is likely that 3D happens not very long after that scene. Because what sense would it make to get an urgent letter and then wait a bunch of months? The events of 3D can't take that long either. Most likely a bunch of days, up to a week at most. Though after 3D, there could indeed be a timeskip of some months or even a year. Which would then lead to what you said about the 13th year.

Typo. Meant "a dozen" not decade.

Aqua's character file in DDD actually says straight up "more than a dozen years ago."

It doesn't really matter, because since Terra's talked about "more than a decade" it means the same, I guess.

[MasterXemnas 2,285]

Fool. I don't know. The events of Chain of Memories took a few weeks. So I'm guessing Kingdom Hearts took place within a few months. And then a year till Kingdom Hearts 2. Kingdom Hearts 2 must have taken a few months as well at least. And then KH 3D's must have taken a while. I think we've already hit 3 years.

I know what the files say. It says "more than a dozen years ago" in Ventus' and Aqua's and "more than a decade ago" in Terra's. But like I said, it doesn't really matter, cause it's the same.

Pretty much. Still a typo though

I know what the files say. It says "more than a dozen years ago" in Ventus' and Aqua's and "more than a decade ago" in Terra's. But like I said, it doesn't really matter, cause it's the same.

Sorry, wasn't paying attention to the posts above. Thought you had only mentioned Terra's.

I dunno guys, it took me about 40 hours to beat KH so I think that's how long it is.loljk, but OMG ANOTHER 13 why am I not surprised.
