out of all the Kanji this one I know 男 and it does mean male. so yes something about a man lol
I recognized all of them except the one that meant armor. That lost me XD
Oh I did not know that, I always thought the first version of the game was the same in both regions (except for BBS).
Yeah. the Japanese version started without a few things but most notably Kurt Zisa. Then Japan complained and they released KH1FM with all of the stuff we got plus a Sephiroth-Cloud cutscene, Riku in the Darkness cutscene, some other scenes, and Xemnas battle. And a new secret ending.
