Thanks to some of the excellent authors amongst the Kingdom Hearts 3 readership, we’ve been able to establish a brand new section, the Kingdom Hearts Editorials section!

In this section, we’ve already got articles by readers which include a comparison of Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy (which some argue is a little harsh!), an interesting theory on the future of the series, and more general KH3 Theories, which has attracted a great deal of interesting discussion.

Wanna have your theories, editorials, fan fiction, or artwork submitted to the KH3 website?! You can! We now have two ways for readers to submit articles to us, either via email or by direct website submission.

The email address you should use to submit content to Kingdom Hearts 3.net is Submit@KingdomHearts3.net, and should only be used for content submissions!

To directly post, check out this page.

In other other news, fans of Naruto should check out our networks brand new site, on which you can watch episodes for free, and even watch the movies. The name of the site is Naruto Online, and the address for the website is: http://naruto.ffnet.org/, so please be sure to bookmark it!

With so little Kingdom Hearts News around and plenty of people wanting to get their hands on a Keyblade, I decided I should show you where to do so. Unfortunately, this only applies to people in the US (which means I can’t get any of this so I don’t know the true quality).

Although there are real swords on the market at very expensive prices, there are some very reasonably priced replicas of Keyblades around, and Amazon.com currently has them on sale cheaper than anywhere else, including their supplier “Top Swords”:

Sora’s Keyblade (14lb) Price: $25.49 All Metal Construction Hanging Chain Included 35” Overall Length Shipping Weight: 14lb

Sora’s Keyblade (12lb) Price: $24.49 Unknown Material Unknown Overall Length Shipping Weight: 12lb

As for other Kingdom Hearts Merchandise, there’s a site that has imported items from the Official Square-Enix Store, including some of the items that were available at the Square-Enix Party 2007, and has them available at reasonable US prices:

GKWorld

Other than confirming again that the next game will NOT be called “Kingdom Hearts III”, it has now been confirmed in Dengeki PS Magazine that:

Unfortunately, this may mean very little news for a couple of months, but we’ll still keep you up-to-date on anything new!

• TheWertle is still working on translating the Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix+ Ultimania book. We’ll hopefully be getting more scans of it as well. If you want to buy it yourself, you can get it at Play-Asia, but bear in mind that it’s 511 pages almost all in Japanese.
• We are also still getting translations on Kingdom Hearts: Another Report. The Proto Type Report should be the next to be translated.
• More Kingdom Hearts Novels are going on sale soon, apparently possibly with a little bit of information that we haven’t found out yet, but this is unconfirmed.
• After the great feedback on the “Fate of the Unknown” Piano Sheet Music, I’m working on the requests of other arrangements for that piece, as well as creating piano versions of other music from the Kingdom Hearts series by Yoko Shimomura. The Kingdom Hearts OST Complete is still available.
• The Square-Enix USA Online Merchandise Store should be opening soon, so if you’re a big fan, sign up to find out when the store opens.
• The Kingdom Hearts Complete Visual Art Book will be on sale in July if you wish to pre-order it now.
• If there are any unanswered questions about this site or about the Kingdom Hearts series that I might know, please ask in the Frequently Asked Questions section and read the Summary of Kingdom Hearts Interviews.

True Xinjust of KHV has got his hands on some of the Kingdom Hearts Action Figures, presumably from the Square-Enix Shop at the Square-Enix Party 2007. They look similar anyway. Click to enlarge:

Reflet of the French fansite KingdomFantasy.com has uploaded 50 pages of the Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix+ Ultimania! No translations yet, but I think TheWertle is still working on them. You can view them all here or download KingdomFantasy’s RAR file of the large highest quality versions of them, if you can unRAR files.

Update: 13 more pages uploaded, including the pages of Axel and Demyx that were missing from before!

Update: 7 Scans Not In The File
