New details on how Kingdom Hearts χ Back Cover will tie into Kingdom Hearts III revealed in Dengeki PlayStation summary


Jake

An article by Hokanko-alt blog has provided a summary on the Kingdom Hearts content for the Dengeki PlayStation 600th issue that will be released tomorrow. Tetsuya Nomura, director of the Kingdom Hearts series, has provided some details on the story for Kingdom Hearts χ Back Cover and explains some details that will be brought to the story of Kingdom Hearts III.

 

Throughout the story in Kingdom Hearts χ Back Cover, details on the "Lost Master" will be revealed and then continue in Kingdom Hearts III. Master Xehanort's Keyblade will be introduced in Kingdom Hearts χ[chi], which then ties to Kingdom Hearts III. Aside from all that, the traitor originally mentioned in Kingdom Hearts χ[chi] will finally be revealed in Kingdom Hearts χ Back Cover.

 

Translations of the interview summary can be read below thanks to @_ikenie & Kayla Copeland (nichiei.translations@gmail.com).

 

Mini-interview with Nomura in Dengeki. Unchained talks about the Lost Master, further expanded upon in KH3. The setting of Xehanort's keyblade is discussed in Unchained and is connected to KH3. 7 Lights and 13 Darkness - other than that revealed in KH3D, these will be hidden until the very end of KH3's story. There is a link between 0.2 BbS and KH1-2's stories. Narrator of χBC is Chirithy. KHuχ: Chirithy is the player's guide. Master of Masters is the teacher of the 6 Disciples. The traitor will be revealed in KHχ Back Cover.

 

--About the cover:

 

Tetsuya Nomura's comments in this issue:

-There is a congratulatory message regarding the overlap of issue #600 and the announcement of KH2.8.

-The king (presumably King Mickey) and the others were drawn beforehand for the sake of expediting the schedule, but now they're being recolored to create a sense of unity.

-They've depicted this on the front cover several times.

-He's going to talk about KH2.8 and KHIII

 

--KHIII

-The “Lost Master” is talked about even in [KHx], but it will be used in KHIII

-The creation of Xehanort's keyblade will be discussed in [KHx] and will tie into KHIII

-Kingdom Hearts will also be discussed further, more than the series has so far

-D23 (November 3rd) will feature a “theater” concept, so he's hoping we're looking forward to the video!

 

--KH2.8

-The part of KH3D that explains the 7 lights and 13 darknesses will be carried on through the end of KHIII

-Since “Keyblade Master” is a special title, what's necessary to become one will be taught

-0.2BbS and KH1-2's stories will be linked together

-Chirithy is the one speaking in xBC

 

--Khux

-Chirithy is the player's guide

-The “Master of Masters” is the teacher of the six apprentices, and it will be revealed in xBC who the traitor is

I've actually never ordered a KH magazine but I ordered this one. The cover looks so cool. I'm guessing the "special encounter" in BBS 0.2 is with Mickey.

Of course, there's going to be, but what if it's something more than that? There's time travel in the deal now, and also, if this will be already revealed once Back Cover comes out, why is it going to be so significant during the entire duration of KH3. Something smells fishy about this. What if Riku is a traitor too and Back Cover is sort of foreshadowing this?]

 

P.S. Are we all really forgetting the biggest traitor clue yet which is the color of Riku's hair lol. That's a big warning already.

 

It's so significant because the foretellers are apparently still alive according to the games description Riku and Mickey will be looking for past keyblade wielders which we can only assume are the foretellers and not aqua and ven since sora will be looking for the 7 lights which we are pretty positive includes those two.

I guess there are good reasons for why it might and might not be true. Ya but what if there is more to Riku than we know already and Nomura is waiting to address everything in KH3. There's gotta be an explanation for the gray hair. They could have given him a totally different color. Maybe he's hiding something from us? Also, what about that cutscene in Recoded where he smiles back at Ansem before entering the portal to kidnap Kairi?  Fishy I say FISHY

I don't think the hair is anything important really, and that scene in Re:coded was a scene that happened in Kingdom Hearts 1 while the island was getting destroyed so that explains that.

Then what about Riku's voice actor voicing the part of "Young Xehanort" in BBS intro? Even his line "world too small", including with him looking out at the sea made it look just like what Riku did in KH1. I know it's supposed to be Xehanort when he was younger, but what if in that particular scene, it's not? 

 

God, Kingdom Hearts gets really freaking confusing and frustrating at times.I mean, we even got Time Travel and State of Beings in KH now so really, anything is really possible now. Eh, whatever, let's just enjoy the games ._.

That same scene was recreated in KH3D in the secret ending, but with YX's current voice actor.Also, states of being kinda already exist in KH. It basically means the condition your body is in or something. So falling into a deep sleep in KH is basically a state of being. Becoming a heartless and a nobody is a state of being as well. But X is the first time they used the term.
