We had to do a parody of one of Hamlet's soliloquies, and as I've been debating whether or not to just watch a Japanese walkthrough with English subs, this is the result. To wait, or not to wait? That is the question. Whether tis nobler as a gamer to wait Until the North American release Or to seek out news on the Kingdom Hearts Wiki And thus to spoil the ending. To search--to watch-- And learn--and by to watch I mean I find A walkthrough of the Japanese version on YouTube With English subtitles. Tis a way to learn The story which I seek! To look--to spoil. To spoil, perchance to find plot twists; ah, there's the rub! For if I learn the plot twists, it will not be the same As when I play the game for the first time With the English voice actors. There's the thing That makes it so much better to be patient. For who would wait six months while all the while, Japanese kids play, walkthroughs are posted, The wiki is updated, bloggers chat, The internet abounds with news and People easily translate Japanese, When one could learn the entire story In one Google search? Who would wait so long, For months to pass while English is recorded, But because the impact will not be the same-- For spoken words are stronger than subtitles For drama and emotions--we hold back And rather wait for the NA release Instead of settling for subtitles? Thus drama does make whiners of us all, And thus the excitement for the Japanese release Is not as great because of the wait for the North American, And people who planned to seek out walkthroughs With this desire for surprise change their minds And decide against it! Calm you down!

*eye roll* No, I'm just a sucker for cuteness.

Ven, Vanitas, Roxas, and Xion. They're all within Sora.

I think it's Vanitas. Check this out:"In an interview with Tetsuya Nomura as well as various novelizations of the game, it is revealed that this similarity is due to Sora's heart connecting with Ventus near the beginning of the game, and had anyone else connected with Ventus's heart, Vanitas would look like that person. His appearance prior to Ventus's connection with Sora was that of a humanoid creature similar to a Heartless but with red eyes."

Xion has now been CONFIRMED in game... and who else did we see? EVERYBODY ELSE FROM BLANK POINTS! YES! THANK YOU, SQUARE! YOU HAVE NOW CONFIRMED MY THEORY! And the best part of all for me... This means that TERRA'S COMIN' BACK! HECK YEAH! I Loved seeing more of the Tron Legacy world, too! Can't wait for that! Roxas saying "Got it memorized?" has to be the CUTEST thing he's ever done! Gotta love that little blonde!

Yep... just what the title says! After listening to music and downloading footage for my upcoming "Les Miserables: Kingdom Hearts Edition" project, I'e finally decided to sign up!

I want to find out about the people Sora has to save from the end of ReCoded: Xion, Namine, Axel/Lea, Roxas, Aqua, Ventus, and my personal fave character ever, Terra. We know that Lea is coming back, and with Ansem and Xemnas gone, that means Xehanort's coming back... could Terra perhaps be returning in this game as well?

I know I'm not the first to bring this up, but I agree that Riku going up may parallel "Darkness becomes Light" and Sora falling may parallel "Light will drop into Darkness". I wonder if Vanitas will somehow be involved...

Birth By Sleep, if only because it was my first KH game and always jumps out at me.

As awesome as The World That Never Was is, The Keyblade Graveyard takes the cake for me. Bad things may have happened there, but it's the home of the Lingering Sentiment... and that holds value for me.

I know I'm probably not the first to point this out, but I have a hunch that Riku moving up parallels "Darkness becomes light" and Sora falling parallels "Light will drop into darkness." I love symbolism! Riku looks awesome here... it almost makes up for them chopping off his epic hair...
