Cutscene Downloads & New Interviews
First, I’ve done the non-branded translated version of the Secret Ending by itself here:
Also, Deathspank has now made most of the Re: Chain of Memories available for download with subtitles! Fourth and Seventh Floors coming soon.
First Floor
Second Floor
Third Floor
Fourth Floor
Fifth Floor
Sixth Floor
There’re also new interviews from a magazine, found in the “Light In The Chaos Blog”. Found at KH-Vids:
- A part of the latest secret movie is related to the new series.
- You get the “Experience Zero” ability at the beginning of Critical Mode, which is for those who might find Critical Mode too easy. It a problem if you accidentally equip it though.
- At the top of Pride Lands, there use to be exactly 144 heartless there, but in Final Mix they have become one enemy. (No more free experience from there.)
- Making the Enigmatic Soldier an Optional Boss Fight was a staff member’s idea.
- The Organization XIII battles from before have changed a lot.
- At a new scene, when Zexion is walking, he suddenly stops as though he’s thinking of something. The players should be able to work out why Zexion stopped.
- The Organization XIII Mushroom Heartless were an idea from the staff ever since Kingdom Hearts II was developed. Back then it was too big to put into the game, so it was added as a sidequest for Final Mix.
- At first Nomura was going to put the Roxas fight in Kingdom Hearts II, but due to the time consumption, he took the fight out in the end. He also wanted to add an additional bit to that event, and a new form. He was thinking about the abilities that could reside around the first Kingdom Hearts game.
- The music after the battle against Roxas was meant to match the event completely. When Nomura did the battle against Roxas, he wanted to convince people about how emotional the battle was, and so created an event after the battle. The battle music he saw as “Different” for when he had Sora face up against Roxas.
- There are some changes in the game the staff made that even Nomura doesn’t know about!
- Re: Chain of Memories was made more from a less justifying view first. It seemed that Nomura wanted to make the camera like Kingdom Hearts, but it would be hard for the team to fully do this, so he changed it around. (Thank goodness they didn’t.)
- The team also put in a few changes for the Last Boss against Sora. Nomura took charge for this battle. It seemed to be *** of **** of Sora. (The *** were censored in the magazine.) All he can say is that it has to do with Marluxia, and it is a very very painful attack.
- The New Series is NOT Kingdom Hearts III. (Nomura wants to make sure you remember that.) (The fact that he says it’s a series is promising!)
- For Re: Chain of Memories, Shimomura and the team worked day in and day out, although this was only for the battle music. She wanted to have different feelings such as “Happy Battle” “Sad Battle” and “Terrible Music”. There is also something about a “Third Form” added to the Last boss.
- Yoko Shimomura put ALL her work and effort in the Roxas battle music. She was pushed to her limit. The battle is meant to be very very emotional. Nomura believed Shimomura already met the standards, but Shimomura wanted to push herself further.
There are two versions of the Organization XIII battles. The first ones are scattered throughout the Worlds, and Nomura stated no one should have any trouble with them at all. However, for the re-fights in the new area, players will have to be at least be level 99 if they want to stand a chance.

Kairi, first of all that wasn’t Sora. Second: Tetsuya Nomura said that this is a new series with new characters. It’s all new! Sora isn’t in it, nor Kairi, nor Riku. The old gang may be mentioned in this new series, but they’re not going to be in it.

Dude i’m dig’in the bald Ansem cosplayer and the power ranger

hey, i also have a theory,
listen, ok, remember when they let out kh1? it was for ps2. then they let out re:chain of memories, and it was for the newest handheld device (GBA)and that was the real second one. then theylet out kh2, for ps2, (again) so if they make a kh3, by next year most likely it’ll end up on psp. and its totally possible, butthat would suck because the graphics would be so terrible, and it would be so hard to play it. but, i have a psp anyways, so ha ha!
on 08 Apr 2007 at 9:03 am 27. Kairi
Hi s a git. Why did he have to go and kill Sora like that?!!! I don’t like him one bit.
on 08 Apr 2007 at 9:01 am 26. Kairi
That guy is SO EVIL. If that’s the story line i don’t think i really like it. I prefered the story in Kingdom Hearts II, how about you whay do you think? Kingdom Hearts is so emotional for me, i don’t ever want it to end, it’s amazing. RIKU IS SO CUTE!!!!!

in a different site i went to someone pointed out that kingdom hearts (the moon) was a different color. then the guy’s eyes change color after seeing it. so maybe it’s like an evil version that the old dude created
on 03 Apr 2007 at 1:24 am 16. General456
Sorry for the double post, but I saw the *new* BHK’s eyes move, he’s not dead but just reduced to a human Popsicle. LOL!
on 03 Apr 2007 at 1:17 am 15. General456
Oh…my…God…that…was…AWESOME!!!!!! OH JESUS! THAT WAS SO FLIPPIN’ AWESOME! Who got frozen anyway? Hm, I wonder. I wonder what happened to Sora and Kairi? I wonder if they got married or somethin’? If that was their children, that would be awesome! Can’t wait for it to come out. I’ll probabaly in collage by then or high school or whatever. I might even be on my own composing music and/or writing books. Ah, whatever! That was awesome. My best friend will love this. It reminded me of Star Wars somehow. O_O
on 02 Apr 2007 at 9:23 pm 14. Kairi + Sora= forever!!!
oh my gosh! wow! thats relly cool! so thats part of kh3? thats awesome!lol. i relly want it to come out! i agree! it shuld be on ps2 still. im pretty sure it will be though.lol. i cant wait for it to come out! its probably gonna be alot better than kh2. but in kh2 i liked it when sora and kairi were reunited! so cute! ^^ lol. but ya kno they culd have at least kissed!!!!!!!!!!
dang it! hey i kno that was roxas but were those his parents or sora’s? i doubt that it was sora that got frozen but i dont get it! how culd roxas be frozen when he is a nobody? weird…. but it looks relly cool! and who was that new bad guy! he looks relly powerful than the organization 13! way stronger! and with the heartless? and maleficent? please! she pathetic!!!!!!!!! shes got pete working for her! anyways you kno what else they shuld do? they need to let kairi and sora tell how they relly feel bout echother. so cute and cute couple and add kairi alot on the fighting just as sora and riku am i right or am i right? lol. but i cant wait til it comes out!!!!!!!

and also dont worry about the main characters changing, just cuz they arent in this doesnt mean they wont be in the game. remember another side another story? plus, square and disney would lose a huuuge fanbase. use your brains.

That Old man can Hardly be Xehanort. He looks Nothing like him. Also he seems to dress in the same Clothes as Ansem from Kh1. I think that was Sora that got Frozen. Could have been Roxas it was really hard to tell. This Game looks so brill but there is loads of Questions yet to be answered and somehow I get the feeling we wont know then all for a long time yet
on 01 Apr 2007 at 10:30 pm 11. ???
everybody listen to me. these people are not who you think they are. Think time skip. Think real hard. Wait i know their sora’s and kari’s sons and daughters. Ever thought of that. And yes all or almost of this has to when Micky was in the Dark Realm. Like a bad memory coming true no matter what he did to prevent it(King Micky). THE KINGDOM HEARTS WAR HAS BEGUN.
P.S: Birth By Sleep / Death By Awakening

At least I’m pretty dead sure that the old man is Xehanort, When you do that final mix battle with the soldier he is repeating xehanort’s name at the end, as well as the names of his two comrades at the beginning; Aqua and Ben(Gwen?).

I think that many people have overlooked a very important fact in the secret ending video; When the moon is revealed (It was hidden behind the clouds), Only then does the enigmatic soldiers’s eyes change colour. Is he similar in some way to Saix, the berserker of Org. XIII?
on 01 Apr 2007 at 4:35 am 8. plum
good… when i saw that video, i died right then and there… i thought that was roxas… if i wasnt mad, i woulda been cryin my eyes out!! i hope ya’ll are right and that wasnt roxas, and that it didnt kill him!!! XD
on 31 Mar 2007 at 11:30 pm 7. silasrps
That was hot. I don’t think any of them was Sora. To tell you the truth that had to be something that happened along time ago or when Mickey was in the dark realm, but watever it was it was hot. It gets darker and darker and i have a feeling this might be the best out of the series. I don’t see wat was everybody’s problem KH2, it had some cheap scenes bu it was a damn good game it reminded me of FFX-2 after the fun and play the story unfolds so dramatic and satifying.
on 31 Mar 2007 at 10:21 pm 6. kevinthekid504
woooooooooooooo…..well to alll i love kh and to see that i am happy but mad at the same time …for one it makes you think that they are gona go another way which means the same three sora and the gang might not be back……then it looks tight but think bout it ..i hope they dont change the group…and what if kkh3 is on another system like ds or xbox or even wii????????????????/wtf i think they should stick to ps they started wit playstation they should end wit it later
on 31 Mar 2007 at 9:31 pm 5. Cerulena
I can’t wait to play that next Kingdom Hearts game!! :3 It sounds like it’ll be so awesome!
Oh, and the boy who got frozen isn’t Roxas (looks just like him, though!), because Nomura had said the armoured guys were all new characters.
And no, the Roxas-ish kid didn’t die, since, like Dawn said, his eyes were still moving.
on 31 Mar 2007 at 9:05 pm 4. DLGR
link to first floor sends you to d/l the second floor. ^^;; Fix link please?
on 31 Mar 2007 at 8:43 pm 3. Carl
Please tell me that was NOT Sora who got forzen?? I want him to live, he’s the best character ever!
So that’s Roxas? Anyone have more details on this?
on 31 Mar 2007 at 7:01 pm 2. Dawn
The “Roxas” look-a-like’s eyes are still moving, so he’s not dead. Just frozen, I guess.
When they say ‘The New Series’ is that refering to the secret ending video and the series portrayed in that?
on 31 Mar 2007 at 5:22 pm 1. cabures
good video i like it but why duse sora get kill
thats so unfere
