Dengeki PlayStation interview with Tetsuya Nomura details Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue

[HarLea Quinn 26,501]

Either we will never find out because Nomura, or we could MAYBE see it in 0.2, but relating to what you mentioned it wouldn't make sense if Aqua told Mickey about Terra because of Re:Coded, again like you mentioned.

 

Yep it doesn't make sense bc if they met she should've told Mickey about what happened to Terra. He was already searching for his fate anyways and as said by Mickey himself Terra was the only one left they needed to find.

Precisely. So, the only choice that Nomura has is for Aqua to not tell Mickey about Terra. But this doesn't make sense whatsoever, since it would obviously be one of the first things she would tell him in a reunion.

one other thing that came in my mind is that if she met mickey wouldn't she know that the worlds were in danger? then why act so surprised when she met ansem the wise?

Mickey would've and should've told her that though.( it was why he was down there to retrieve the KKD) They had a lot of things that were vital info to share. Don't forget all these retcons and writing things as Nomura goes catches up to him eventually and I hope he has a better explanation than he has for other things he has poorly handled like when he retconned the Xblade being 1 pure light and 1 pure dark to 7 and 13. Retcons leave holes sometimes.

and here I was thinking a couple of years ago that KH is like the perfect game with zero retcons and plotholes dreams shattered

Still an awesome series though or we wouldn't all be here

"Kingdom Hearts X Back CoverThe oldest tale in the series. Explains the happenings of the world 100 years before Sora received his keyblade."Okay, this says that KHx takes place 100 years before KH1 and that means only 90 years before KH BbS, that can't be true can it?. I mean I thought that KHx took place thousands of years back in the past.What do you guys think?

This was mentioned in...last week's Famitsu interview, I think. Yeah, 100 years is a suspiciously short time period, considering the "age of fairy tales" thing, but it's entirely possible the Keyblade War's catastrophic events caused some sort of memory-fuzzing, whether by accident or on purpose (to prevent something similar from happening again?).

[The Transcendent Key 12,109]

Man, this is just awesome!  2.8 is building up to be quite the lead up into Kingdom Hearts III, and it's going to be fan-flipping-tastic!  I can't wait to get my taste of the game already! And the fact that X Back Cover will also be running on KHIII's engine means that it's going to look so amazing! X_X Gahh, and KH3D HD! I'm so happy!!!!  AND A FRAGMENTARY PASSAGE!  SO MUCH HYPE!

 

And guys, what are you all panicking for?  Nomura clearly stated he intends for the game to release in 2016, before said year ends.  So, the way I see it, this could go the way of 2.5 when it released!  It released on October for Japan and on December for the rest of the world!  I'm confident that 2.8 will follow suit with the same kind of release date strategy!

 

Unless, of course, they aim for an international release...that'd be pretty sweet. X_X

I have a serious concern about the translation! BC should be "more than 100 years ago", not exactly "100 years ago". The timeline reference to back cover has a "以上" which means "or more", while the timeline reference to BBS does NOT, as it's exactly 10 years.

It's a pretty big difference between "100 years ago" and "more than 100 years ago"!

BC's [...100年以上前の...] vs BBS's [...10年前の...]

Yeah, there should also be another "0" in there somewhere because Master Xehanort is like 70 or 80 from the way he looks in BbS.

Well that makes more sense, although when people say "over X years ago" or "more than X years ago", they do usually mean somewhere within that time period, relatively speaking.

[Sorarocks93 678]

It does mean he left her there. Whether he had no choice is another story. But still why say nothing? Why keep it a secret? Bigger question why didn't she tell Mickey what happened to Terra since he's the only one they were still figuring out???

Well we could have another retcon on our hands, or maybe just another promise Mickey had to keep. Also maybe she forgot about stuff like Ansem the Wise did. Which doesn't really explain how she knew about Terra and Ven when she met him. Oh well.

[Henne 150]

She didn't know? After all, the last thing she "knew" was that she saved him... kinda. There will be funny times of joy when she hears about him.

 

Edit:

Plus, what if Mickey only saw her but couldn't reach her? To me it seemed like Aqua never met anyone besides Ansem.

[Guest]

Great interview. Can't wait to see more of this KH3 technology. Its time to say farewell to the old school and step on new ground.

 

2002-2015 RIP Old style. It's been a trip!

 

I'm gonna miss them fish faces. Nothing screams Kingdom Hearts quite like fish faces.

 But Mickey did not know Terra's fate still since Terra "disappeared" and she didn't know for sure if Terra was even ok?? As for Mickey that doesn't seem to be what's implied in the interview but we shall see. It seems they had interactions. Why leave her choice or no choice? Thing is, if he had no choice why keep it a secret? Can't wait for this to release.

Well regardless I'm just hoping it's handled well so it's not a "wtf" lol. I love the story too much 

[RikuFangirl2008 1,368]

There has to be a reason why Aqua is still in the RoD, if Mickey saw her again. There has to be some kind of explanation.
