The new Shonen Jump issue features a new scan from KINGDOM HEARTS Birth by Sleep. The theories about Zack Fair from Final Fantasy VII appearing in the new title from the KINGDOM HEARTS series has now been confirmed in the latest scan. A young Zack Fair is seen with Ven and Terra in the Olympic Games. Among the couple of new screenshots, Aqua and King Mickey are also seen in the new scan along with the d-link feature.

Edit: If I'm correct, I believe the young girl standing near Aqua is Kairi when she was younger. The world that they appear to be in is Radiant Garden. What do you guys think? Also in the d-link feature, it appears that Mickey from Fantasia is in battle.

Singer, song writer, actor and voice over "Jesse McCartney" has revealed on his Twitter account that he is currently voicing in a new KINGDOM HEARTS project, which we know is Birth by Sleep. Jesse McCartney first took the role as Roxas in 2005/2006 as a confused guy who sensed a lot of what was going on around him. Jesse played as a kid who is known as a nobody. Apparently this nobody known as "Roxas" is a bit more special than we thought. In KINGDOM HEARTS 358/2 Days, we learned that Roxas appears to have emotion, which nobodies aren't known for. While Nomura confirmed that Roxas and Ven are related, but aren't the same character, I think that the role as Ven that Jesse McCartney is taking will be very interesting. Will this piece everything together? So far, Roxas and Ven appear to look the same and have the same exact voice over.

Reported by Jesse McCartney
"Recording yet another Kingdom Hearts Game. All you Gamers eat your heart out! Man what a process tho. First recordin was in 2005 for game 1."

In the mean time, the new KINGDOM HEARTS Birth by Sleep (TGS 2009) fandub is being put up in a matter of minutes. Once again, I took the role for Ven in the production. We are not sure who the rest of the characters are voiced by in the actual game, but for the most part we worked hard on creating a fandub that would be enjoyable to many fans.

New scans have surfaced, which features all new screenshots from the new anticipating KINGDOM HEARTS title "Birth by Sleep". The game is scheduled for release on January 9th 2009 in Japan. In the mean time, Famitsu has released information as well as some interesting screenshots. Our member "Daxma" has brought this to my attention that one of the screesanhots would stir a lot of theiors. http://www.kh-vids.net/showthread.php?p=3016511#post3016511

In the mean time, I've translated a lot of information based on the screenshots below. We've got a good amount of new information that's defiantly worth reading.


● Three people (Terra, Aqua & Ven) who are transporting on keyblades.
The form of transportation for Terra, Aqua and Ven include their keyblades while wearing their armor. Let me brake this down. According to the translation, their type of transportation isn't the gummi ship. The transportation that's used in Birth by Sleep is called "Key braid Ryde". As for the name, I guess it's safe to that the translation is known as "Keyblade Ride". The shape of the keyblade differs respectively. When riding the keyblade from world to world, it's clearly shown in the screenshots that battles are in progress.

Ven's transportation seems to transform the keyblade into the shape of a skateboard. In the screenshot above, Terra is seen with multiple enemies.


● It is a festival (Disney Town)
This is the area that surrounded the Disney Castle in the KINGDOM HEARTS series. This is some sort of "dream festival" where many Disney characters are seen.


Aqua is seen confronting Minnie at her height who is the queen of the Disney castle. In this world, many Disney character appear; such as chip and Dale.

Young Ven appears to be overjoyed about the festival.

Terra is participating in the festival where he is trying to beat the enemy in a race.

There are three kinds of mini games that are taken place during the festival. Mike's Note: Sorry guys. I can't make out the full translations. I can only name one mini game, which is known as "rumble racing".


● Radiant Garden
Radiant Garden is the world being ruled by the evil witch "Maleficent" in Kingdom Hearts I, which was called Hollow Bastion. The Apprentices were absorbed in their experiments with the darkness in Radiant Garden. Mike's Note: Can't make this translation either. Apparently there is a reunion with three apprentices which "leads much into the age".


Ven and the aqua notice the appearance of Terra changing. As for the relationship with the three heroes, does it change gradually and do the bonds crack?

Braig is seen with Terra. Braig is number II from Organization XIII. Braig is known as Xigbar.


● Mirage Arena: Multiplayer Mode
This is where friends can enjoy multiplayer mode. There is some sort of award that can be obtained in multiplayer mode. The award is known as "medal". This medal can be exchanged for various items in some sort of medal shop with the Moogle.


The team battle in mulitplayer mode can be done by dividing into the "red" team and the "blue" team. Mike's Note: Once again, rough translation. This is in relation to the command deck.

● A New Element
This is a mini game called "Command board" which is a board game style that uses deck commands that's used in battle. The deck command is strengthened when playing the mini game.

The official website for KINGDOM HEARTS Birth by Sleep has been updated in the system section, which showcases some new videos. The videos in the system section show off "Shoot Lock" for Ven, Aqua and Terra. Another video features the deck commands. You can view the videos and the rest of the official website, by clicking the link below. We are only a month and two weeks away from KINGDOM HEARTS Birth by Sleep releasing in Japan.
