358/2 Days Official Website
The Official Square-Enix website now has a subsite for Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days. Click below to access it:
It doesn’t state anything we don’t already know except:
Thanks to Xaldin of KHV for the translation
So there should be a lot of new information to come from Jump Fiesta this year!
The other interesting thing it states on the site is how the title is said, which has provided some controversy, and this still isn’t confirmation: “Kingdom Hearts Over 3 to 58 Days”
on 08 Dec 2007 at 12:33 pm 1. kaorukid
Yeah, that’s great! Hopefully there will be a “Birth by Sleep”-Site soon ^_____^
But….“Kingdom Hearts Over 3 to 58 Days”? The Katakana under the logo say “Surii faibu eito deisu oobaa tsuu” -> “Three five eight days over two”. Why should they wirte this but pronounce it different? o.O” That’s very unlikely…

What does it say in yellow near the bottom of the page? That’s the one I was translating from, which I could still be wrong about.
on 08 Dec 2007 at 3:08 pm 3. kingdom1286
I agree with you kaorukid. Its wierd. Second comment…
on 08 Dec 2007 at 4:10 pm 4. shadow
If the sites in Japanese why are even some parts a different language for example,the title.
But besides that the writing in yellow can probably be guessed cause underneath it says it’s Genre and developers.
It’s not really wierd(in my opinion) how they pronounce it,they’ve got a reason and they have been pronounced like that before.
Now i don’t see why they might not release it before christmas i hope they will but theres a chance they won’t,some stores get these things the first day it comes out.
on 08 Dec 2007 at 8:47 pm 5. #-3 master death
the site is in japanese it sucks
on 09 Dec 2007 at 9:36 am 6. KenowaX
The reson it is said like that is because its a code. A password of some sort.
It was said in an interview that only by completing this game can we guess its meaning.
on 09 Dec 2007 at 1:57 pm 7. Samantha
How can you translate the website as i’m not sure how to do it. Can anyone please explain to me please of how to do it. Thank you!

I’m glad KH 358/2 Days is coming out sooner than expected.
At least we know, around Christmas, lots f pictures and video of KH 358/2 Days will be flooding KH fan sites. Hehe, early Christmas present I guess. xD
Oh, and when I first read the title of this game, I was like, Wtf? How the heck do you say this title? I’ll just say “KH on DS”
on 09 Dec 2007 at 10:10 pm 10. Kellllay
Yeah, I agree. I’m done with pronouncing this title!
Hahaha I just say “KH on Nintendo DS.” too.
Does anyone know the final release date for this game?
Cause when I first read about this, I kinda cried my eyes out in happiness.
on 10 Dec 2007 at 12:09 am 11. Final Form Sora
yah that is a little confusing. I’ve been trying to find a correlation betwen the title and “I will disappear from this world in 151 days.” So far i can’t figure anything out. its kinda weird but i’m sure everything will make sense when the game is played.
on 10 Dec 2007 at 1:18 am 12. Varxtis
Well, I have no idea how to read Japanese. I understand the language the slightest bit, but not the written stuff. But I am skeptic on the whole “Kingdom Hearts Over 3 to 58 Days” idea. When it comes to numbers as well as equations itself in Japanese, I’ve never seen it look (come out) different than in English. curiouser and curiouser. Although, 358 over 2 days seems to be a bit too blunt of a phrase for the Kingdom Hearts mysteries.
btw, Where did you get the phrase “I will disappear from this world in 151 days.”?
on 10 Dec 2007 at 1:42 am 13. shadow
Varxtis:The phrase I will disappear from this world in 151 days,is what Roxas whispered in the trailer description from tokyo game show.
Now it says theres a present for whoever visits,what does that mean?
Where is the jump festa 08 anyways i’m new to hearing about it?
on 10 Dec 2007 at 7:43 am 14. sora_sky_ven_wind
lol.memorable XIVth comment.anyways,i hope it is free trial versions of the game:D
on 10 Dec 2007 at 9:23 am 15. Varxtis
Ah, I just read up on that trailer description. Very interesting.
on 10 Dec 2007 at 10:09 am 16. KenowaX
Im still going with my theory…
Check it…
3+5+8= 16 - 2 = 14 = 14 members
15-1 = 14 = 14 members
on 10 Dec 2007 at 6:31 pm 17. waitin4KH3
The title is not a mathematical equation. Let’s just put that to rest. Long before the games were announced Nomura stated he wanted to make a game that explained more of Roxas’ story about his time in the org. The title is the number of days he spent in the org, and the 151 days he mentions in the trailer is probably just a scene between him and Axel to show their relationship.
on 10 Dec 2007 at 9:06 pm 18. KH Lover
y would the title be a math question? and im so bummed that i cant read in japanese. i want all the new games…NOW!
on 11 Dec 2007 at 6:37 am 19. sora_sky_ven_wind
358 / 2 = 179????
on 11 Dec 2007 at 10:28 am 20. KenowaX
And this is what i found on the official site of KHBBS translated:
The key blade which appears in legend has concealed big power.
The person who has the key blade which appears at one time rescued the world also,
Chaos is conveyed was brought also.
From KINGDOM HEARTS
Before ソラ designates the key blade as the hand, plural “key blade masters” were in the world.
1 person among those, master ゼアノート with the only pupil, turns off the 忽 way and the form.
That was omen of the great disaster which starts from now on.
As for a certain master which becomes aware promptly in the, in your own 3 pupils,
In order to chase master ゼアノート and that pupil, it was to order……
on 12 Dec 2007 at 1:26 am 21. Shadow
KenowaX:whats the official website called can you put up a link or anything?
on 13 Dec 2007 at 9:31 pm 22. Oz
its actually pronounced three five eight over 2 days
on 15 Dec 2007 at 12:49 am 23. keyXIII
I support kenowaX’s theory only in a different way:
358+6(days as roxas in kh2)= 364
364/2(from title)=182
182/(organization)13=14
14 members of organization XIII ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
(now they’ll start calling it organization XIV)
on 15 Dec 2007 at 8:11 pm 24. neeteson4
wow, this game is getting to look amazing… but still if what you lot say is true, no one realy can know the code till they finish the game and if you know now the main story is pritty much over and who wants to know the twists the in kingdom hearts games???
on 16 Dec 2007 at 7:52 pm 25. King Mickey
The name is stills weird, but I think it sounds better this way.
on 18 Dec 2007 at 7:24 pm 26. neeteson4
maby 358/2 is the last thing roxas remembers after going to twilight town.. or it could be a password…
on 18 Dec 2007 at 7:25 pm 27. neeteson4
or since its pronounced three five eight over 2 days it could be 358 days in a span of 2 days…
on 18 Dec 2007 at 11:27 pm 28. # 16 358_fan
i no how to translate the page!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
on 20 Dec 2007 at 3:32 pm 29. Mirkitsune
The title is pronounced “3,5,8 over 2 Days,” and one can assume that the main character (or characters) experience the events of a full 358 days, while only during two actual 24-hour periods.
on 21 Dec 2007 at 8:06 pm 30. Master of the Keyblade
Ive noticed many things as I played the Kingdom Hearts game. My theory is Xenohart is probaly still alive, the man in the hemlet walking beside the bald man may very well be him. I also think the bald man is Xenohart’s appertice that he took with him into the darkness. The three “knights” as i call them are most definately the original masters of the key blades. I also noticed that the taller male and the female knight carry two keyblades. I think this is somehow relavent considering that roxas had two keyblades and in the second Kingdom Hearts sora recieved two. I also noticed the Keyblades the Knights pick up from the dirt in the trailer match exactly with the keyblades riku and sora carry. Apparintly the game takes place in the past, but somehow in the future as well. I think that perhaps the keyblade has the power to open the very fabric of time, and allow the holder to travel into other worlds. This might explain how and why Kairi recieved the keyblade from Riku. I also believe Xenohart is one of the original keyblade holders, he had lost his memory, so not much is known of him. But I think that when Sora finished him off, it might have mearly opened up an oportunity for his apperintice to bring him back more powerful than before. I can only speculate why the bald man carriesa key blade, perhaps it is because Xenohart created one for him and his apprentice then erased his memory. I also belive the reason the king knew of this and sent Sora, Riku, and Kairi a letter was because of Merlin, his magic allows him to see into the future and into the past as well, and perhaps he had seen what was going to happen and had also seen that it all started with the past. As for the title i belive the 358 could be the amount of years before Sora recived the Keyblade,and perhaps Sora only has two days to straighten out what Xenohart and his apprentice are doing, or it could destroy the future, such as Mickey not being crowned King, and the Heartless ruleing the kingdom when they finnally show up with Melphasent.
on 21 Dec 2007 at 8:15 pm 31. Master of the Keyblade
Another point i have to bring up is that in the title, it says no 13. which must relate to the organization. I think Xeniohart’s apperintice could have been the fouteenth member. And after Xenohart was killed he brought him back to life. Or he some how recived his powers, perhaps he summoned him. Anyways the tall male Knight i noticed looks alot like roxas, but then agian the small male knight looks like roxas too but also like sora, the tall male knight’s eyes change color from a blue to a gold, which i think are the color of roxas’s. thins may very well be realted as well. As i said before the Knights are the original keyblade holders and were passed down. but my question is how does the keyblade choose its master. Could it be that Riku and Sora are decendents of the original KeyBlade holders?
Im sure all will be explained when the game finnally comes out.

Hey Everyone,
Jump Festa 2008 has officially kicked off and the first bits of information regarding the presence of Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days, Birth By Sleep & Coded have trickled in.
KINGDOM HEARTS: 358/2 DAYS
Playable Demo Report
• Roxas, Axel, Xigbar or Saix are all playable in a Twilight Town based mission
• Each playable character differs, Axel can use his fire attacks etc.
• Enemies in the demo included Small Wizards, Shadows & a Fat Body.
• After exploring the stage, you have to defeat a familiar boss, a Dark Side.
• Upon mission completion, the user can view statistics on how they did.
• Game has a planned release date of Q2/Summer 2008
Each forthcoming game also has a new trailer being screened behind closed doors at the event. Firstly, the 358/2 Days trailer features the still-secret Organization member, XIII, helping Roxas & Axel after being surpised by Heartless. Also, King Mickey (in Organization attire) is shown looking towards the Twilight Town forest. Lastly, there is brief scene of Roxas with Aladdin & Jasmine in Agrabah.
on 22 Dec 2007 at 7:28 pm 34. Oz
who are those 2 people in the picture in kh2 in namine’s room on the wall with axel and roxas?
One looks like Zexion, and the other im guessing might be the 14th member, or twins with blue hair

on 03 Jan 2008 at 5:33 am 39. KHlova
Ok, im confused….Roxas joined the organization AFTER he lived in twighlight town and then Sora was awakened from the egg thingie right? And also…that one guy who runs down the side of that building killing all these heartless,and like fights roxas or something,- im not sure where its from i think KH2 but ive seen it a couple times on my computer and i think in one of the games - is that like riku? And if it is, then like how could riku be a part of the organazation? This may seem like it has nothing to do with the new games but are these the sort of things that will be answered in the this game? Also i dont understamd what it means by saying “Over 3 to 58 days”?????????? Is that just the Japeneese way of pronouncing it and for us it still means 385 out of 2
days, or divided by 2 days, or whatever???? Can somebody explain this two me??
on 03 Jan 2008 at 2:35 pm 40. MasterOfTheKeyBlade
I Heard the 358/2 days, peole would not understand what it meant until they had either played or beaten the game. I dont think Riku was part of the Organization 13 because King mickey was wearing the same (Jump suit) in the Second KH. perhaps it is just a costum they gave the characters who had been in the realm of darkness. (Riku and King Mickey were in it after KH1.
Also Roxas lived in Twighlight town after he had left the Organization. Which explains why he had so many flash backs, About his past. But I also think that all the events that took place in the first Two games, will probably have an impact on the Birth By Sleep game.
Such as the conicidence that Roxas lived in Twilight town and the KeyBlade Riku Carries is known as the Twilight KeyBlade.
on 04 Jan 2008 at 1:55 am 41. confused KH fan
how does “358/2″ mean “over 3 to 58 days” ?????
on 04 Jan 2008 at 4:56 pm 42. mrv225
look at what i found in my nintendo power
kingdom hearts:
358/2day
it has been rumored for monts, but
square enix finally made it offical:
kingdom hearts is coming to ds. this
all new installment in the popular disney-meets-final fatasy franchise will take place between the
frist and second kingdom titles
and focus on not sora and freinds
but rather organization XIII.
The game is fully 3-D, and looks to features a real time battle system simalarto its predeces-
sor. a first forthe series, however, is a four-player co-op mode. oh, and if you’re wondering about the title, square enix claims it’s delibratly
cryptic, and that players will understand its meaning when they beat the game

358/2 days refers to Roxas’s last days in the organization. In KH2, he spent seven days in the virtual twilight town before he and Sora became one, once again. He was with the organization for 1 year[365 days]

on 09 Feb 2008 at 12:57 am 57. Master of the KeyBlade
I dunno exactly why it means 3 to 58 days people in japan have already played the game and Im only getting my sources from what they had released. but i seriously doubt the game would be released on DS. No other game has been on there why would they only put it on there now they may have it on DS but i will probably most definitely be on Play station 2. Its a huge seller and i think Disney would make it a point to put it on there it would boots sales and they hype would increase.
on 11 Feb 2008 at 12:11 am 58. Keyblade Master
Okay…First of all, it’s 358/2 days. See K-Hearts reply for what I believe the meaning is. Second of all, DS rocks and a KH game for it will be even awesomer.

It is ロクサス and accelerator that gaze at the setting sun from the clock tower of the station as it is ordinary at twilight town.
Two duties that belong to the organization subjugate heart-less and collect ‘a heart’.
I was chatting about the duty in the day while gather to the end of the duty with the clock tower of this station always and eating the ice together.
Am I knowing whether or not it is red why it is setting sun って?
There be color several in light and be because the red reaches to first distantly even the middle.
The accelerator is a profitable spirit why.
They of the intention who do not have heart like and repeat and the conversation without consideration.
Story ─ in the XIII organization era of ロクサス that was not told.

When is KH 358/2 days coming to America? I really want it. Is KH final mix in English at all? Please reply!
on 13 Mar 2008 at 6:08 am 67. RoxasLegacy
I think that the 14th Organization member is someone related to the main hero/his nobody AKA Sora/Roxas. It might be Aqua(from KH: Birth of Sleep)or her nobody. Or it could be Sora’s mum’s nobody(she was mentioned in KH1).
on 13 Mar 2008 at 6:11 am 68. RoxasLegacy
the release for America (NTSC) and Europe (PAL) plus any other English-speaking countries will come out when Square-ENix says so. SO BE PATIENT. Although I personally think it will be late 2008 or sometime in 2009. Jz wat i thnk though.

The keyblade wars is the name of birth by sleep given by the fans untill the name was found, but the keyblade wars could probably be the name of the ps3 game that would be under development after this string of handheld ones come out
on 20 Apr 2008 at 12:18 am 74. bob
it would actually be organization 1 or sumtin because remember all of the organization members except 1 died (roxas is in sora)

OK, listen
1. KH FM I/II will not be released out of Japan this has been confirmed by Nomura.
2. KHIII has no current release date and almost no data on it has been released personally I’m hoping for a Wii/PS3/PS2 release XD
on 21 Jul 2008 at 7:49 am 80. CloakedSchemer
Ok I Have 2 Theories for the whole 358/2 Days Title.
1. 358 is how many days Roxas will be playing in this game. (Sora is asleep for a year, we play as Roxas for one week in KH2, 365-7=358). Now the 2 part, I am guessing means that there are 2 sides to the storyline. 1.Roxas 2.Selharxets (14).
2. Ansems secret code…

all i want to know is the release dtae so i won’t be goggling kingdom hearts 358/2 days every single day. Because kingdom hearts 358/2 days is the only reason i bought a Nintendo Ds I raelly want kingdom hearts 358/2 days.
