Ooh! The Master is cool! Love his samurai look.

Awesome! I like this Keyblade master's appearance. I bet he's epic. Also, i noticed that his name is stated in the scan.

Master Erakusu.

It's not really Erakusu though. Anyone who knows the katakana rules knows this. It's like..Rokusasu(Roxas). So yeah...Elax maybe?

Anyone else notice the master's keyblade has a keychain.

I did.

HE reminds me of someone else though....He just seems really familiar to me.

Funny I had that vibe too..

Friends (truth roxas And Carey) found the name to translate to Erakusu or aparantly Elax.. dono if this is his legit name.. but hey it sounds cool.

The master's Keyblade is currently my favorite
For some reason the master reminds me of Robert Downy Jr.

Ok, now I am confused. So the samurailooking dude with the keyblade is the missing master Ventus, Aqua and Terra have to find? I taught Xehanort (the bald guy from the trailer) was the one they had to find.

No. They get an assignment from him to go find Master Xehanort I believe.

Why does this guy look so familiar?
He looks awesome, and I gotta say, that Keyblade has a very high cool level.

He could remind u of the mulan world. But as for the keychain and his keyblade, it has a reminding ping to it. the keychain kinda looks like a symbol, maybe the symbol is a nobody symbol OR even the ummmm unbirth or unversed. Something about him is very familiar. Sadly if we can get the keycahin right he may represent something that we know about in kh 1 and 2. This can be important for theories too come

whose the guy to the right of the master?

Huh lol you just quoted yourself. Fail. =)
That pirate guy is something from Famitsu. It's just a random pirate that's always on the screens.

lmao didn't mean to qoute myself

Uh...why does Cyan Garamonde have a Keyblade? And I thought he wore blue?

(I know it's not Cyan, but he sure does remind me of him. I think it's the 'stache.)

It's a long u, so it's more like Elakuus. It may be Latin, like Terra, Aqua, and Ven(tus).

Master Erauqs (square spelled backwards)
Love that keyblade...I saw this pop-up on facebook a few hours ago and I swear I was crazier than a 10 year old girl at a Justin Timberlake concert...

I wonder if we'll get to play as him...
Thanks for the news Mike.

You know, that makes a lot of sense after looking at Yen Sid.

I wonder if we'll get to fight him as a bonus boss.
On that note, I wonder how he fights.

MYSTERIOUS NEW CHARACTER! SWEET!
That's one cool-looking Keyblade. I'm betting the symbol on the keychain, the same sybmol that the three apprentices wear, is the symbol of their little group together, whatever it may be.

O_O. Why is it that they have badass people have a more badass mester/leader or something? Thanks Mike! :].

"Master Erauqs (マスター・エラクゥス, Masutā Erakūsu?)
He is the master of the three protagonists of the game: Terra, Ventus and Aqua. He first made an appearance in a trailer shown at the Tokyo Game Show 2009 and was described by viewers as having a "Samurai-Like" appearance. He was previously thought not to appear physically in the game with mentions of him by the protagonists. His name was unveiled in the November edition of the Japanese gaming magazine, Jump, his name is apparently "Square", the first name of the developer, spelt backwards."
