I mean, I'm not against the idea of it being Vanitas in some form, but I didn't exactly mean it could just be any Nightmare either. It could be, for instance, YMX for all we know.
Any nightmare I would doubt however, why put an org coat on a dream eater?
I think it might be a being related to the nightmares, yes, but one of a bigger kind.
I theorized earlier somewhere that this red-eyed "thing" maybe is all the torment of the ones connected to Sora thrown together and given a tangible form.
Like that black Ventus-armor with the Nightmare-symbol could be Ven's torment alone given form.
What are you talking about?
About the youtube-version of the trailer which, when you turn captions on, has English subtitles, perhaps?
What really perplexes me is the red-eyed cloaked figure (RECF?). I have no clue who that could be. It likely isn't Vanitas, since Vanitas has no reason to wear a cloak like that and already appears in his normal form and in his armored form. Who could RECF be?
I also really like how Xehanort's Guardian appears. It confirms that it's very important (even further than it already was).
And also. I like the whole damn trailer. This rules. I love that Riku can use multiple keychains like Sora, and how there's even more evidence of Sora failing his exam, and... aaahh! I love this game!
As far as I remember Vanitas is confirmed to appear only once, unmasked, in the beginning.
Vanitas has no armor, that blackened Armor we saw briefly there was Ven's armor with a Nightmare-Dream Eater symbol on its visor, not the Unversed-symbol.
It maybe possible that this
is Vanitas now having an armor, but that isn't confirmed yet.
As for the red-eyed unknown, I dunno, it could be raw Vanitas as according to the novels or something entirely different.
Again? I think the issues we see here at hand are way more severe than worry about a stupid exam.
