Sounds good to me. Gamescom maybe?

I’m probably going to skip watching this trailer though.

My only hopes for the final trailer are seeing Apprentice Xehanort and possibly Kairi and Riku entering Shibuya/Shinjuku

I know it's pretty unlikely, but imagine a KH Direct with not only this, but:

-1.5+2.5 for Switch later down the line
-Sora in Ultimate
-A teaser for the next KH game.

That''s also on Switch Pro? Nintendo ain't gonna promote a game not on their hardware.

They might show more playable characters in this trailer. It would be cool to see how TAV will look, and maybe show some more Disney allies to team up with if anymore. I kinda don't want to see anymore story in the trailers. Just show more gameplay stuff with more characters.

I feel like the trailer will be a recut version of this without the Switch exclusive gameplay mode and with a longer Kairi tease.

But they've pulled out completely different trailers within a handful of days so I'm remaining optimistic.

Always feel blessed by Nomura art. ?

The final trailer's probably gonna be filled with spoilers, but I'll watch it anyway. XD At the least, I'm expecting the trailer will likely reveal who the black coat is.

I'm expecting more spoiler scenes surrounding Kairi and Apprentice Xehanort. Hopefully we get to see who black coat is officially, since I think it's Apprentice 'nort

They're just storybits repurposed from Remind.

I gotta say that boxart is looking mighty fine right now. It's really reminiscent of not only Sora but a previous Utada Hikaru album cover as well!

Yes! Or a hospital thing (for data collection?)

Or (but that's just me, deep in my researching Norn iconography) a wrist distaff. (That would be cool.)

Anyway, it's creepy. I hope she can free herself at the end of the journey!

It's true. Maybe part of Melody of Memory is her remembering having one? haha

First Sora, now Kairi. We need a game with the box art featuring Riku on a throne.

DDD would've been THE game to have that Riku throne art tbh. Should've had it in as DDD Ultimania or smth.

Riku sits on the throne, but instead of sitting properly, it's one of these angles:

Ah, so they didn't go with the *sitting on throne, looking bored, fist on cheek* trope treatment huh?

Also, is it, uh, strange she isn't crossing her legs while wearing a skirt....? pls don't murder me

^ my headcanon is Kairi fell asleep on the chair, literally thinking about Sora all day (the KH3 memory has to be her most recent one). Couple that with her lega not being crossed, is pretty much SoKai confirmed. They at the very least kissed on DI before he got snapped.

To be honest, more than a trailer, what I would like is a phase 2 plan, like for the MCU. Would be great to know what is the plan for the next 5 years even if it changes along the road.

My guess is that is what we are going to get with the game itself. By the end of MoM I assume we will know what to expect for the next proper main installment of the series.

Either that or Nomura is gonna Nomura and we are left with more questions and minimal answers.

This exists, but not fully shown yet. Go look at the beginning of the KH2020 trailer and there's a "Kingdom Hearts series 2nd Phase" diagram right there.

As you can see there are three big boxes filled (ReMind, Dark Road and MoM) and two boxes unfilled, as well as five smaller boxes under them that nobody knows what they mean.

Presumably we would see the full diagram the next time there are announcements (Kingdom Hearts 2021 Trailer??).

Nomura doesn’t know how to draw women legs and thighs. He needed to add that thigh gap so badly. *rolls eyes*

I mean, she never crossed her legs in 1 and 2's boxarts. I guess it's only strange since it's not from the side this time.

And isn't she wearing shorts underneath?
