Okay, where did Crisis Core come into this??

Anywho, I'll keep postin' news as I get it. ^.^

The same way Crystal Skull came into the other thread where people are complaining about Lucas. =P

[Mirby]

Was that art made by Nomura? It doesn't look like his style. They look too... expressive and happy.

[Mirby]

The top four are him. The other three are in-game models.

[Bueno Excelente]

Hope he's changing his style for the better, then. Because those don't look like they're by him.

[Mirby]

Heh, yeah.

I love the kindness that shows in Riku's eyes, though. That little smile, and the warmth in his eyes... very well done artwork.

Off-screen Trailer

[Mirby]

[Phi]

Uh, yes. I think we all saw that.

[Mirby]

I know, but it's also good to have a static form of the images.

Especially since the one of the keyblade is rather vital...

[Gaia]

lol, that's most likely something In-The-Machine would draw. 

[Mirby]

Trailer officially released. Now we don't have to deal with the low-quality one! Screencaps to come.
See it here~

[Rin]

Okay...

This should be interesting.

[Mirby]

I think that right there shows the origins of Organization XIII. Maybe.

[spoiler=Theory]
Ya know, I'm guessing that Apprentice Xehanort snapped a bit.

Since that's obviously exactly who that is. Maybe that inner war between Master Xehanort and Terra came to a head, and he lost it. He did seem rather irritable in Blank Points...

I'm guessing after that, he goes on a rampage, creating the rest of Organization XIII. I mean, we did see Dilan and Aeleus, who obviously became Xaldin and Lexaeus. We've got the birth of Xigbar, Vexen, and Zexion right there too.[/spoiler]

[Bueno Excelente]

That's basically what happened from the beginning. He either experimented on them willingly, or he went on a rampage. Although from the rampage, I dunno how they'd accept him as a leader.

...oh, yeah. It's Nomura. A small speech that means nothing will have them thinking otherwise.

[Mirby]

You know, that has me thinking.

As revealed in 358/2 Days, Roxas, when first born as a Nobody, was like a baby. He didn't know who he was or what to do; as such, he was very impressionable. So impressionable, in fact, that he was easily recruited into Organization XIII with little effort.

Now, what I'm thinking is, all Nobodies when first born, especially those who retain human form, are just like Roxas was. So it would be very little effort on Xehanort's part to convince them of what happened. In fact, even if they retained their memories, he could brush it off. And, maybe, they don't remember the instances of their demise that led them to a "life" as a Nobody. So that could easily be a part of it.

What could be logical would be that Xehanort's the one who harvested their heartless, turning them all into nobodies. Throughout KH1 they just wandered until they were found and formed the Organization (due to Xemnas being a different person, and probably hating Xehanort for the fact that he doesn't have a heart, he was accepted as a leader). Sora killed Xehanort, Xemnas and the others didn't focus on taking revenge, but regaining a heart instead.

[Mirby]

Possibly.

We'll be getting definite answers in this new one though, sooo...

All I wish is for Nomura to stop pandering to the yaoi fangirls. Sora needs to get some poon, dammit!

THIS.....

[Phi]

Cool trailer, but I found the BBS trailers to be more exciting. I don't know if it was because they were new characters, better music or maybe the darker tone. In terms of the battle system, this looks like it has BBS beat. And the touch screen strategy combat looks extremely useful. I'm just worried that the story won't be terribly interesting until towards the ending.

I hope Neku has a bigger role in this game than what Cloud had.

Wait, so officially pairing Sora with Kairi wouldn't count as "pandering to the het fans"?
