Not quite sure what this is but it's exciting nonetheless. Curious as to what these means and I hope it will be explored.

.......what?

That's what I was thinking. I don't think Square would want to go down that path with KH3... Then again... they're always so full of surprises.

Yeah, this seems like it's reaching a little far to me, and there's nothing that we don't really already know.

I still don't understand why they're using a little-known iOS game to try and make allusions towards KHIII...

Well it sounds like it's generally just trying to explain that the cards in the game refer to characters who haven't appeared yet

This would be awesome.

I'm thinking this would relate more to future games other than Kingdom Hearts 3, kinda like what Nomura said about there being plans for an expanded universe or something. Maybe a tinier connection in KH3 but something more in the games after that.

Other than that, let's have this come internationally~

Who is the one follower who did not get a tome of prophecy? Could it have been Eraqus & Xehanort's Master?

Maybe it could have been Yen Sid, I mean none of the games ever went into deep detail about him and he is a retired keyblademaster if I remember correctly.

Hm, not quite sure. If you consider what happens in the begin of the very first KH, the worlds statrted to get swallow to the darkness and Sora and cia. stopped it.

If this is going to happen in a larger scale in the KH III, so be it.

I still don't think this game has any true connection to the rest of the series. It's inconsistent with things already set within the canon.

The problem that I think will plague the Kingdom Hearts series as it expands is that there isn't really an official stance on what is and isn't canon. It hasn't really been an issue until Chi, but if the series continues its current trajectory either Nomura or the fans will have to make some choices.

But it's already been set in stone that Emblem Heartless didn't come into existence until long after the Keyblade War, yet KHX for whatever reason has Emblem Heartless as enemies to fight.

Okay, I honestly think that's pushing the whole what's canon or not canon idea. They're just enemies being fought. It'd be difficult to come up with a whole new enemy just for, again, an iOS game that most of the casual fanbase isn't even going to hear of.

But still, they don't need to go against what the other games said.

In Birth By Sleep, there wasn't any heartless, just Unversed.

In 3D, the darkness appears as the Nightmares of the Dream Eaters.
