I wonder if this song has a hidden plot meaning when played backwards. 0.o

Yeah, it brainwashes you into joining satanic cults and forces you to kill your parents and is about being self conscious because everyone is disgusted by your appearance (Fears My Face).

I've been watching the video a lot. I think there are a lot of cuts.


  • I think there's a cut on Aqua to see what happens to her
  • I think there's a cut right after Ven starts fading away
  • I think the next scene with Xehanort juggle Xemnas's piece is out of order. The juggling probably happens after we see the Destiny Trio split up.
  • I think the scene with Xehanort smiling and then for like, 2 frames you see Sora? I bet the scene refocuses on Sora there and follows him falling. He might fall into some CoM scenes
  • The cut where Roxas drops his icecream is kinda weird. I doubt it happens so quickly like that?
  • There's a confusing ending part where we see Xemnas with his fancy light sabers and then Riku and Mickey's blades come flying out of nowhere to interrupt him? I've watched that part a few times and it makes no sense to me. 100% bet that scene is either out of place or happens somewhere else or something.

Also, I've seen people speculate about it already, but it'd be pretty cool if Xehanort wasn't alone at the chest board and Eraqus was on the other side seemingly losing a lot (or losing completely?) I feel like this game between them is very significant. I remember when it was first hinted at, it was just two sketched people talking to each other and we didn't know who they were yet. I should look that up, to see what they were talking about...

Anyway, I so want to know more about this chess game.

That xemnas/mickey riku scene at the end looks like it's in order to me. Looks to me like they cut a scene in between those two scenes. The real opening is going to be sick and match very well with the music/ flow better. Super excited :)

I feel like there may also be a cut before Xehanort sets the first piece, since we don't see TAV happily together like we do with SRK and RAX.

to be fair we've gotten the least happy TAV stuff of any trio. they pretty much start out on shit avenue
it's almost as though they're horrible characters lol imagine that

aqua is ok

I mean, you're not wrong. In fact, TAV is my least favorite trio in this series.

They're my favorite and I'd love to get more pretty CG scenes of them. Moving forward, we'll never get long character introductory intros like KH1 and KH2 because people complained too much. Would've been nice to see more of what life was like on Land of Departure.

You can tell there's a ton of cutting that was applied to the opening. A lot of people have complained that the song doesn't fit with the visuals and I think that's obvious since we're seeing a chopped up preview of the full thing. Considering they had to condense both the song and the visuals, they managed to sync them together surprisingly well. I'm sure the full thing will have a lot more content though, especially since we can see those two frames of Sora falling but it just cuts away from that. That was almost certainly going to be the CoM section of the opening.

So I noticed that when Xehanort placed Terra's piece on the board his fingers were hiding the top. Yet for Ansem, Xemnas, and Master Xehanort we saw their's clearly. If they cut certain scenes I wonder if that was meant to imply ambiguity between Terranort or Aquanort.

Utada Hikaru did.

Yeah, but Skrillex helped PRODUCE it. Most certainly doesn’t change the fact that it still sounds awful.
Its like the composer decided to make the music to seem they were cool and hip and in, when they should’ve just focused on making a good song.

Man, KH3’s opening music is easily the worst in the series.
