Hi everyone, during the Kingdom Hearts Orchestra that began during March 2017 in Japan, the voice actor of Kairi and Xion Risa Uchida came out on stage and read lines that explained back story to Kingdom Hearts III. As you may recall these we're then recorded through a video for the world tour with English subtitles. Well during a recent interview with Famitsu Nomura explained that the lines for Kairi read are actually from the script of Kingdom Hearts III itself! That's right Kairi will actually say these exact same lines to Sora in KH3 through an emotional letter. ---In a scene, we see Lea with Kairi, who are training to become Keyblade Wielders, at a particular place. Can you tell us where this is? Nomura: You won’t be able to go there as part of a world, but that scene is in a new location.　As the story progresses, there will be scenes weaved in showing how the both of them are doing in a sort of “Meanwhile…” style. In some of the past Orchestra concerts, we were able to hear Kairi talk about how her training was getting along. This exact monologue will be included in a scene in-game. This gets me really excited because I can't believe we actually heard dialogue from KH3 all the way back in March 2017 even before KH3 started it's big promotional kick during E3 that year! That's quite amazing to know that we've heard this and we weren't even aware the lines would be in the game! This also means that we could potentially here Xion lines too that Risa also read. Here are both of the monologues performed as an English fan-dub by 'ohmiyamoto' as a refresher and to get the full effect! An interesting bit of information is that Nomura confirmed you will get your new KH3 clothes from Yen Sid and the three fairies ---What about Riku and Kairi's outfits? Nomura: The tastes are partially made to align with Sora. Since Sora's main colors are red and black, I went with a blue base for Riku, with a yellow accent on his shoulder, and Kairi is mainly pink. These color schemes follow their usual designs. In this title, all the characters including Mickey get their new outfits from Yen Sid. Well, of course it's the three fairies who actually make them, as always. Because of this, I wanted some kind of element that was shared among all of their outfits - so I went with the chequered pattern. Also Nomura confirmed that we will be hearing Elsa sing 'Let it Go' from the movie ---It sounds like a complex situation. Now, let us ask about the trailer and new information revealed. You finally confirmed Frozen as a new world, didn't you? Nomura: It follows the same timeline as the film, so scenes from the film play out right in front of you. "Let it Go" is going to play, too. Anna and Elsa aren't going to join the party during battle, but Marshmallow, who Elsa created with magic, will lend a hand. There's also of course a section where you must explore a maze of ice created by Larxene in the snowy mountains. This may be unwanted by some fans but... this gives me hope that we will also see this beautiful scene unfold before our very eyes. This would be a magical moment in KH3... Thanks to GoldPanner and KHInsider for the translations and information. (I posted this here because I enjoy kh13 and I found this information extremely exciting to keep quiet!) Thanks for reading!
