Kingdom Hearts 3 ReMind Secret Episode EXPLAINED! 

KINGDOM HEARTS 3 EPILOGUE EXPLAINED: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-50LUk4bmhlo.html&t KINGDOM HEARTS 3 SECRET MOVIE EXPLAINED: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JlfGv0d5f2c.html

I just realized something. Remember when Ham and Rex mistook Sora for Yozora and everyone was like “how could they think Sora looks like Yozora” , but what if they didn’t mistake Sora for him. What if he actually did look like Yozora to them.

Theorists: the events of KH3 take place in a dream! Nomura: hehehe... You fool... *THE ENTIRE SERIES WAS JUST A DREAM!*

Luxord gave you the wildcard. He has a bigger part to play later on for sure

*Sora wakes up in real life* Sora: Guys, you won’t believe the dream I had! I saved the world twice with a talking duck and a walking dog with a giant key!

idk about yall but the line "i've been having these weird thoughts lately..." is what got me hooked on the game

My friend...not even Nomura can explain the story

Okay, so, when Sora/Yozora says "Is any of this real?", keep in mind the connection to VERSUS XIII (Final Fantasy XV)... In "Versus", the catchphrase began with the line "This is a FANTASY based in REALITY". Yozora says "this isn't who I really am" (which suggests he is Noctis and has taken a different form... which is somewhat implied that the "Noctis" in "Versus" isn't the same as the "Noctis" in "FFXV". Versus talks a lot about the Eyes of Etro... the ability to see the border, those near Death (or in Sora's case, on the verge of losing their Hearts). Noctis was connected to his world's past through "Sleep" and "Dreams"... and the fact Sora and Yozora's voices "sync up", means there's a connection between their Hearts. Sora means "Sky", while Yozora means "Night Sky" or Noctis' other name "Night of Sky Lights". Sora had to pay a heavy price in order to save Kairi's Heart, and that meant losing his own... or at least, being put in a Slumber-like state. If Sora and Yozora are connected through "Sleep", then it's possible Yozora is just another "form/possibility" of Sora himself. It was stated that Sora has the ability to connect himself to virtually anyone through their hearts and trace it... so Yozora might have that same ability... and he might even be connected to the Keyblade Master based on that ability as well, since both Sora and the Master can "travel through time".

I was totally mind blown at the Luxord part, didn't even notice it when I first watched it! Nice theory

What if that “real world” is the final fantasy world,and yozura is the final fantasy version of sora,and the the two are more parallel than we thought

Spoilers for the world ends with you I find it interesting how Yozora says his current appearance isn’t how he really looks like. If you remember, in the world ends with you, shiki’s appearance is actually her friend’s appearance and her regular appearance was her entry fee. And in the battle against Yozora, it’s heavily implied Yozora played the reaper’s game. So was Yozora’s true appearance his entry fee? In order to play, he needed a fee. Just a theory out there.

I think the Luxords wild card put Sora into a literal game that Luxord's real self made. He and the real Yozora have their own world just like any Disney world, but of course it is still closed off so they know nothing about other worlds (until MoM came along). That's why we see Sora's dive to heart followed by Shibuya, its almost like the game is reading Sora's data, then Yozora's data. I'm thinking it's like how Roxas was in data twilight town in KH2

Luxord being the driver is very plausible especially when Xigbar at the beginning of the ReMind cutscene said "The question is, who are you, Luxord?"

OK , i have this theory ! let us is say that as for paying the ultimate price for using the power of awakening sora just got stuck in a time loop which will make him go over and over in this 'Kingdom hearts' world if you see the KH1 intro you will notice that sora was dreaming falling in ocean like he did in after fighting terranort and after that he wakes up in 'Destiny Island' the 'Destiny' that brought them all and after that sora meets kairi then in the same KH1 intro they watch falling stars and they see 'another sora' falling with the falling stars! immediately after that first sora start falling again and he just repeating the 'another sora' and start falling with falling stars !! now 'Connect' this time-loop repeating with what sora found in the final world , YES A LOT of SORAs going in different directions and repeating some different actions and sora was trying to collect his other selfs in order to return to the real world so basically Sora did take the forbidden path and manipulate the time-line to save his friends but just messed the time-logic up and trapped him self in a time-loop where he just wakes up in Destiny island and repeat whole 'kingdom hearts series' until he reaches Yozora now Yozora defeated sora and crystlized him so he can stop sora from repeating the time-loop he is in ! now every other sora will meet and get crystallized by yozora, that is why yozora was saving sora by crystallizing and stopping him repeating what he is been repeating many times starting from KH1 up to KH3 im not saying the the whole KH series was just a dream -which it could possibly be- but it just some how a repeating a time-line or time-loop. other thing to be mentioned, mostly likely dreaming is just connect worlds together and somehow these worlds get projected on another worlds as something not real to them ! like yozora's real world is just a video game in Sora's world and maybe sora's world is just a video game or some fictional story in yozora's world and what really connects the worlds ? Yes, Dreams and remember, the Final World is where Death and Dreams meets last line is coming from a religious background, this world that the Souls 'Hearts' of vanished 'died' people and sleeping 'dreaming' people do exist in the Islamic religion, it gets more interesting... in this world, dreaming Souls can meet dead Souls but the dreaming Souls have this amount of time before they return to their world while dead souls being hold back from returning what is that sounds like ? Yes , Dream Drop Distance getting back to yozora yozora was dreaming and he met riku and probably riku told him about sora being missing after using his power of awakening and asked him to help him finding sora and getting him back and then Yozora 'went some trials' until he met with sora and then crysllized him to stop sora from paying the ultimate price which is being trapped in a time-loop repeating him self forever Finally let us not forget that sora said probably to yozora in KH1 intro 'I want to line the pieces up, yours and mine' !! what pieces ? is it like sora was collecting his other-selfs pieces in the final world ? “A scattered dream that's like a far-off memory... a far-off memory that's like a scattered dream... i want to line the pieces up... yours and mine.” that is an Oath to return! that is it and thanks for reading :)

Here’s my theory: Yozora is from the future. Luxord sent him back in time. Makes sense for someone with dominion over time Hence the “impressive” line: he showed Yozora his powers

The bad ending ends with Yozora speaking and the good ending ends with Sora speaking. I think the bad ending is Yozoras dream and the good ending is Soras dream.

I would be bummed out to if it all wasn't real but the one thing that's holding me to the the fact that it is real is the Disney factor. Disney doesn't seem like they're gonna just let Nomura slowly exclude them. I'm sure there will be Disney characters still involved in the series moving forward. Afterall they do own KH

Yozora can also steal and use the Keyblade during the fight. hmmmm

Nomura says adding that one line is what made Kingdom Hearts approved, meaning the line set a basis for the future of the series, making sure there would be more to the franchise. Perhaps without a line like that, they saw it as a one and done title, but the line makes sure there will be more to come, approving of the series, and making sure the franchise could follow through with more titles in the future. I really think the World of Kingdom Hearts is just a dream world or simulation or some kind, and Yozora is a middle ground between the Real world, being Final Fantasy universe/ FFXV. Where he's part Sora and Noctis. I think the World Yozora is in, is another universe/plane entirely from Real (being Final Fantasy) and Kingdom Hearts. Yozora has one Blue eye (Sora) and one Red eye, from the ORIGINAL Noctis design used in FFXIII Versus. Noctis had Red eyes in the first Versus 13 trailer. In the final versions of FFXV he has blue eyes. And this is very far fetched, but maybe, JUST maybe. The girl Yozora is trying to save in the Verum Rex trailer, is a mix between Kairi and Stella Nox from the original FFXIII Versus trailers. The girl in the Verum Rex trailer has Kairi's hair color, but Stella Nox's eyes.

The real question is who’s Sora for yozora and where did he heard about him

I'm now remembering that sleep was supposed to play a big part in versus 13.

I think that the crystallization of sora was a nod to final fantasy 13 the reason is because of the l'cie. when the l'cie fulfill their role that is bestowed upon them they are turned into crystal granting them eternal life.

When sora meets up with yozora he mentions that "she" spoke about him so he must be real. That girl he mentions must be the star in the final world, if you talk with every star she tells a story about her being betrothed to him and they were planning to get married. I think that this girl is also called "sora" and thats why yozora was surprised to hear her name. Yozora wants to save his girl, that is stuck in the final world!!

Explains why xigbar uhh luxu, dosen't know where luxord came from

I think Kairi told Yozora to save Sora, It's like the nameless star told Sora about Yozora's story.

Is there even a point to solving all these mysteries? The director is making shit up as he goes alone and every cool theory and mystery from the past has meant nothing cause either the payoff sucked or the writer just forgot about it.

I agree. I would be bummed out if that’s where Kingdom Hearts is headed, but if we were to think that all the Disney worlds that Sora has gone to is essentially a fairy tale. Most fairy tales are written in book form and also just to note that in the beginning of KHUx it starts by telling the story of the age of fairy tales by pop up book. It is plausible that the world of kingdom hearts as we know may all be just a dream or some fantasy land/world that was made by the master of masters probably.

If this is real, could it be that the power to waking he's supposed to lose is losing the thread to being able to get back to this alleged real world? Like all KH lives on the dreams of Sora, and he's stuck forever in the KH dream, being Yozora the one who is trying to recover the power of waking for him so Sora can "wake himself up". Hence, Yozora appears first on this videogame just as a way to try connect back Sora to reality, but failing (if you succeed) to be there. What feels stranger is Riku. He looks really much like Yozora. If he's there (in the KH3 secret episode), who is he really?

I think you missed a key bit of information when they meet, Sora speculates that this isn’t the real world which Yozora confirms before then saying that is not what he looks like. I have this theory that the night sky world is some kind of purgatory between that’s connected to the station of awakening and the world of ocean and sky

I hope they don't get rid of the Disney stuff. At least not until we get a star wars world. I mean shit. Light side and darkside. You go dark in either kingdom hearts or star wars your eyes turn yellow. They could do a lot tbere

When I heard Yozora say that line, I knew Nomura was doing something

I think Riku's Dream Eater powers will come back into play. They've guided him to Sora before. Also, Yozora went through trials. I think he was in his own Station Of Awakening that connected to Sora. As for Luxord, Luxu said one of the 5 time traveling Dandelions (Ventus, Lauriam, Elrena, Demyx, and himself) was an imposter. It's most likely him, and now he's Ubering Yozora while trying to save Sora

We can somehow be sure that the realm of death and realm of dreams are connected. The dreameater in KH3 sad that and the characters from The World ends with You are dead.

It would be cool if Yozora is Ephemer who's just been trying to find the bugs in the system for 12,000,000 years.

None of this makes sense to me

I'd be pissed if kingdom hearts was all a dream lol. I'm thinking sora is in the sleeping realm or whatever and Yozura has the power to travel there like Riku

i think Kingdom Hearts needs to break away from Disney. I love the characters, but you can tell that Disney has been holding back Nomura from telling the story he wants to tell.

I been having these weird thoughts lately like when tf is this going to make any sense

I think all the Union X stuff is too complicated and too integrated into the main story for it to have all been a dream

I believe, sora is the girl that we see in danger in the Verum Rex games.

It's fun to think how Luxord has basically been testing Sora in every confrontation they've had. Never directly attacking him, time-based tests, etc. It's even more interesting to apply the setting of TWEWY and the Reaper Games into the mix, because it is also a time-based trial. I like to think that Luxord's been setting Sora up for the moment where he must participate and succeed in the Reaper Games. Doing so would prove worthiness of some sort to possibly assist Luxord and Yozora in their own plot of their own reality.

Yozora is a multiverse variant of Sora. Calling it now

I think they opened up an amazing world of possibilities . I don’t think Kingdom Hearts is a fantasy or fake world but more say an entire universe that exist parallel with Yozora’s . Wow. Jus wow .

My friend have you ever heard of Nomura’s revenge?

If they go with “it was all a dream or coma shit” on kingdom hearts like they did with drawn to life game. I’m just gonna be pissed

14:02 Not exactly. Or rather, not entirely. It goes more like this. Winner of the fight: I've been- Loser of the fight: I've been having these weird thoughts lately. Both: Like, is any of this for real or not? Winner of the fight: None of this... makes sense to me. 16:19 I honestly don't think that's it, mainly because Yozora says it as well.

yo guys i bet , is that good ending is tied to kingdom hearts 4 why because if luxord is in the car with yozora probably means he is going help sora against master of masters. he is the wildcard!!!

Turns out that the whole game series is just a dream of not-Noctis after binge watching Disney animated movies.

Unpopular opinion, but I think I'd prefer a more adult setting kinda like final fantasy. I've always liked Kh for its story and its awesome gameplay, the disney characters were always just an addition for me. Also, I kinda feel like that Yozora is going to be the protagonist of the next installment, but that's just a hunch.

It could be a simulation or a game of sorts. The guy driving , if it really is luxord it makes that line when he said "you were born for these sorts of games " very creepy

the fact that the man behind the wheel could be luxord blowed my mind

that Luxord could probably be his original persona since it hasn't been revealed yet

What I think is that this is the future and the MOM is trying to make a kingdom hearts in this world. Or this is perhaps an alternate/ parallel universe

this makes the first line of the first game a lot stranger. "I've been having these weird thoughts lately. Like is any of this for real, or not?"

Did anyone notice that yozora has a skull with a crown and two crossed keyblades on his right shoulder at 5:17

What about the star you meet that tells you about Yozora and how his heart is beyond recognition?

Also, this wouldn’t be the first time that Square Enix made a game that was actually a dream. Like Final Fantasy ten for instance.

JSkeleton zooms in at 13:05 Ignus driving: That's it. I'ce come up with a new recipe! Yozora: stfu

I wouldn’t be surprised if Yozora is Sora tbh, but just a little Easter Egg I haven’t seen anyone talk about is the sleeves of Yozoras’ top, it has keyblades on it and what seems to be a skull with a crown hmmmm... wonder if his clothing has anymore Easter Eggs on it.

I will be really pissed off if everything up to this point has been a "dream." It's basically a big middle finger to our years of emotional investment in this game by saying none of it was really happening in the first place. It makes these last 20 years of games pointless. I'd honestly drop KH if this happens, no questions asked, and I'm a die hard fan.

"it's all very confusing. Just like everything else in kingdom hearts" No truer words have ever been said

I´m pretty sure that if that´s the case, Luxord´s card will end up being of some use to Sora. I speculate that both endings hint to the fact that, unless both Sora and Yozora get stronger, they won´t be able to face the trials ahead. It also reminds me of Squall/Leon´s fight with Sora. Sora either defeats Leon or viceversa, then Sora still gets tired. So, I´ll go ahead and say that, though the time lapse may vary in "when", Sora still gets crystallized, with the difference of Yozora acting as a strength exam to see if Sora´s power has grown enough to face the trials ahead. If Sora doesn´t win, that means he´s still too weak and needs Yozora´s help. If he´s strong enough to defeat Yozora, then Yozora´s power remains the same, but the mission he has varies a little, and Sora´s strength is proven to be powerful enough to face the next journey. That´s why Yozora says "I´ll save...", "...not needed yet.". Sora is still on the verge of death, but every time Sora and Yozora fight, they test who is stronger than who, building up strength every time they clash in the dream. Think of it as a point in time where the fight continuously unfolds until the time passes and Sora comes back to action, a sort of "training ground". This is only a hypothesis, but since sleeping is equal to being temporarily dead, then it wouldn´t be so farfetched as to believe that their minds are hovering in the spiritual realm, something similar to what happened to the inanimate Terra armor, which, when helm-destroyed, stopped moving, but still fought until then. In other words, Sora isn´t truly dead, just half way through the event horizon before the next transition of life. I´m going to say that, though SAO bares no relationship with Kingdom Hearts, fluctlights is the best explanation that I find that can be given in this case. Let´s put it simple: black and white spheres (holes for the old-timers) suck in and puke out info, it´s only because of it´s nature to do so. Black and white spheres are not actually determined by the color because It´s not even theirs to begin with. Distortions beyond the Plank "border" happens when a particle exceeds the limit at which a particle remains stable in the current state of matter, when it goes beyond that point, it collapses. In that sense, black and white spheres are the same vessel containing different outcomes: because one is positive and the other negative, they either lack or exceed in light. So, if light nor darkness determine a "sphere", what does? Peace or War. See, humans are no different; We either have peace, or wage war against one another. Souls are just like those seen in Kirby games; empty vessels, husks without owner, until a good or a bad spirit settles in. So also are the spirits that, within them, possess inherited and innate potential, strong enough to face even the hardest of trials. To those we call warriors, but then, who are the pacifiers? If a warrior is known to have great strength to go even against the world outside, shouldn´t we be able to fight the worlds inside? Sadly, that is not the case for everyone. In fact, only a handful, in the span of existance, manage to actually escape these hellish conditions lived in this Earth since ancient times, let alone in the very core of this sinful world. Such is the case since the very moment that "the fallen", children who toyed with human DNA, by means of strange procreation, insemination or hybring with all kinds of different states of matter, producing the madness by which this world had to undergo radical changes with a flood universally. Such a flood erradicated the physical state of many souls who became deteriorated because of these malformations in the human and other beastly genes. Such creatures are, simply put, those which all know as "mythical" or "cryptic". So, where are they now? Kingdom Hearts is a vivid reenact of this reality: a fantasy born out of the fact that Nomura knows about the secret plans of those in high society to bring back those who are called "The Heartless" and "The Nobodies" from within the core of the Earth and the core of our souls, which are like the core of the Earth, a huge, bottomless, damming, black sphere, which knows no end to madness. That, my friends, is what true SIN is all about: no heart, no one. Where is dark matter and energy? in the isolated zone of this universe: the observable universe, which harbors 95% of strange matter, including dark matter and energies, and only a 5% common matter approximately. Only this quarentine zone is accessible to us. A confinement for those who had to be encarnated here in order to see in which side we were in: those who persue life and those who persue death. Truth to be told, it isn´t to difficult to see where Nomura is going. Final Fantasy as a "fantasy based on the reality that all of us, not just on earth, but outside of it as well, have to face", and Disney as "The source that hides the dark dreams of the elite and world domination". There are no such things as "gods and goddesses", only presuming children of God who differ from the path He set before us, proclaiming themselves to be gods, though being devils in their own game, foolishly and selfishly dragging others into utter dispair. That´s where, in this reality, God comes into action. Angels, or rather, aliens, are born into this Earth to have a life already chosen by them before they forgot everything of their true appearance and soul, which lies deep within their dreams. Thus, all of us, unknowingly, have already taken our choice. We follow He who created us, or he who decieves us, which, in fact, many do. That will be for the next Kingdom Hearts; the destroyer, his beast and their flattery and pride, leading astray all since ancient times. The Adversary, HaSatan. He is a former child of God, but his perversion has taken the form of immorality and madness, his soul broken and in slumber, unable to see what even he himself is doing to himself. Go ahead and search lovecraft. You´ll see that both Azzathoth and Yoggsothoth are both one side of the same coin. Both of them spell "hypocrasy". Odin is blind in one eye, while believing to see it all with the other. Serpent among serpents. Truly, the former venom of God, SamaEl. Alien born, but now differing in will to God. Archetypes of the vain dualism of the clash between false light and darkness, both being darkness, like plum and silver; one is wretched, while still apparently being true, and the other is true. That is what all of this is all about; He seems good at first, like an alien of light, but is evil within, and when he stops apparenting, then everyone sees him for who he truly is; an accuser of the brethren, killer of men, women and children, eater of the dust from where humans were made, destroyer and spoiler of every good that God, YaHuShua, Lord God, has made, turning what was meant for good, bad and rotten. Truly, a Lost Master, both because he dissapeared, and because he´s a truly lost sheep, turned into a wolf.

Despite how many things you pose as purely speculation,& plainly just aren’t familiar with , I think you hit the nail on the head. A lot of these games revolve around dreams and memories. We’ve just never been given context on WHOSE dreams and memories. You brought up some points that other, more well-versed channels completely missed. Good job imo

1:49 “He had a dream aboot Sora...” *Canadian spotted*

Imagine if the MoM is Nomura-- lmao nahhhhhh he wouldn't do that.....I think.

What if the master of masters is actually Old Sora? just a guess XD

Wait didn't Sora look at his left hand in the secret ending of KH3 the same hand that got crystallized first. Dose that mean that the bad ending is the true/right ending and he remembers being crystallized.

This is really becoming one of the most interesting stories for a game I've ever seen.

I don't want this "reality" thing to be true. But even if they decide to go for it, I'm sure it would go down like Sora not caring if it's real or not, his friends and his heart are residents of that "fake" world we've seen so far, and he would return to it. I think Nomura knows very well that he shouldn't break the magic of Kingdom Hearts. Even if he decides to include some Versus XIII stuff in KH4 (or some title between), so he can live out that fantasy of his. I highly doubt this franchise would exit the Disney thing. Frankly, Disney would never let that happen.

I think like most of the secret videos, they aren't as story-destroying as we are led to believe. Meaning, I don't think Sora's world is all made up. I think the secret video is just a small sliver of the next saga. Which I know is like, "Duh," but don't sit around worrying that your series is now ruined. Most likely this is just another world that plays an important role in the rest of the next saga.

I think Yozura and Sora are the same individual happening in parallel. It's all real, but happening simultaneously in different realities. I also believe the next FF and the next KH will have the same storyline but each main character faces their version of it as the realities merge or annihilate. Possibly one being turn based and the other real time. My guess 😁

Imagine the gag if from now on, all worlds we get to visit will be from Dreamworks IPs

Yozora looks like a cross between the character design from Versus Noctis and FFXV Noctis. I definitely get the feeling Yozora is a Nobody that is related in someway.

9:18 ... all those years.. IN A FAKE WORLDD WHEN IF SORA ONLY HAS KAIRI AND RIKU AND E V E R Y O NE ELSE IN HIS MIND ONLY!! NOOO o my goood this is just.. -crys in sadness-

Now that Kingdom Hearts 4 Trailer came out this whole video makes a lot more sense , Its insane how the story line to this game just keeps getting more deeper and deeper than we would ever expect. Proud to be a Kingdom Hearts fan lol Kingdom Hearts 4 is gonna be Insane when it comes out and answer a lot of questions that we have in mind.

I really hope they add Sephiroth on kingdom of hearts 4

The voice we hear in the car sounds exactly like ray chase when he voiced noctis! Put them side by side and you will see i’m most likely dead on!

He is Noctis since Final Fantasy Versus 13 are not working due to some issues, so this is Nomura being salty to make sure it still happen. This is what I believe

Really great video! Awesome editing and script. Kinda got me thinking for sure o.o

It seems like kingdom hearts 1 2 3 was like a dream and now they wake up at the secret ending as a reality

I just want to thank you for explaining the secret episode. there is still a lot of mystery to solve. I too would hate to see the Disney characters go. I wonder what M.O.M. is up to? I am looking forward to the next installment when light is shed into darkness. maybe answers we will get?.

The person Yozora wants to save might be the Girl from his world in the commercial. Sora is infact a unisex name

When you said that sora has strong ties to thus world and can't pass on. It sounds 1 to 1 with how the unsent work in Final Fantasy X

Credit goes to Shiroshii from an other video he is the one putting this incredible theory together forgot to copy paste the last sentence were I linked the video and your comment sry for that Yozora is actually using an avatar called "Yozora" and he acts out in a virtual reality through dreams, which is why he said that "this isn't real him" and a reason why he is able to peak into the Final World, which lies at the edge of sleep and death. Yozora could know Sora from the Master, while Sora knows Yozora, because in Sora's reality, Yozora is depicted as a video game character. To each and both of them, their worlds collided and that's why they don't know if both worlds are real. Extention. The Master may be from Yozora world, and the world of KH may be just a fantasy book written and materalized in the general reality. I think I've got this. The game of Verum Rex seems to be more than just a virtual reality game, more like a game that alters the reality. That's why Yozora would use the discernment. The Final World is real, but the access granted to it by Verum Rex, to the avatar of Yozora, makes it so that they need to separate what was normal for the people of Yozora's reality before Verum Rex, or whatever made it possible for Yozora and the others to travel to other realities and what is now. They need to be sure what part of their world is theirs, and what part is not, so that they realities won't completely blend. Why do I think that this is a game that alters the reality? Already mentioned that about Yozora. Sora recognized Yozora, because of his apperance, but to Yozora this appearance is of his game character, not the real him. That's why there's a gap in understanding. In Yozora's reality, his game avatar must have a different name, and Yozora is his real name. In Sora's reality, Yozora's real name is tied to his game apperance(not that his real apperance is all that different, if the good & bad ending are not a part of the game). The thing that made me think about it, is how Yozora mentioned how Sora is using "Sora's" name. Maybe, there's a real person in Yozora's world that has a name of Sora, and Yozora is friends with this person. This Sora would look differently, because Yozora did not recognize our Sora by apperance, but immediately questioned why our Sora is using the name of the Sora he knows. It's like the Sora that Yozora knows was originally his game pal in Verum Rex, and Yozora is confused why our Sora uses his friends' name for the in-game avatar(i.e Yozora dived into Verum Rex and met our Sora in the Final World, and thought that our Sora is a game avatar of someone using the name of the Sora that Yozora knows). It's getting scary, if we'd really think if Kingdom Hearts, rather than being a picture book, is just a part of the Verum Rex, which is a game. That'd be meta, because if KH was a game, then everyone that we know, may be just game avatars of the real people somewhere in Yozora's world. It'd also explain why the Master was able to follow and foretell the events, it's like he's one of the developers that knows the scenario of Verum Rex(which includes Kingdom Hearts) that wants to use this game to make it a part of his own reality. The Master did create a data world for the Dandelions, so it'd not be strange for him to be a programmer and a scholar. Then, there's a point of Yozora "saving" Sora. Sora use of the Power of Waking may've been considered a cheating in Verum Rex, and that's why he was about to get punished and banned from Verum Rex, but the Master told Yozora to "save" Sora by defeating him & crystalizing him in order to preserve his data. It's wild. Yozora is actually using an avatar called "Yozora" and he acts out in a virtual reality through dreams, which is why he said that "this isn't real him" and a reason why he is able to peak into the Final World, which lies at the edge of sleep and death. Yozora could know Sora from the Master, while Sora knows Yozora, because in Sora's reality, Yozora is depicted as a video game character. To each and both of them, their worlds collided and that's why they don't know if both worlds are real. Extention. The Master may be from Yozora world, and the world of KH may be just a fantasy book written and materalized in the general reality. Edit: Slight edit. I think I've got this. The game of Verum Rex seems to be more than just a virtual reality game, more like a game that alters the reality. That's why Yozora would use the discernment. The Final World is real, but the access granted to it by Verum Rex, to the avatar of Yozora, makes it so that they need to separate what was normal for the people of Yozora's reality before Verum Rex, or whatever made it possible for Yozora and the others to travel to other realities and what is now. They need to be sure what part of their world is theirs, and what part is not, so that they realities won't completely blend. Why do I think that this is a game that alters the reality? Already mentioned that about Yozora. Sora recognized Yozora, because of his apperance, but to Yozora this appearance is of his game character, not the real him. That's why there's a gap in understanding. In Yozora's reality, his game avatar must have a different name, and Yozora is his real name. In Sora's reality, Yozora's real name is tied to his game apperance(not that his real apperance is all that different, if the good & bad ending are not a part of the game). The thing that made me think about it, is how Yozora mentioned how Sora is using "Sora's" name. Maybe, there's a real person in Yozora's world that has a name of Sora, and Yozora is friends with this person. This Sora would look differently, because Yozora did not recognize our Sora by apperance, but immediately questioned why our Sora is using the name of the Sora he knows. It's like the Sora that Yozora knows was originally his game pal in Verum Rex, and Yozora is confused why our Sora uses his friends' name for the in-game avatar(i.e Yozora dived into Verum Rex and met our Sora in the Final World, and thought that our Sora is a game avatar of someone using the name of the Sora that Yozora knows). It's getting scary, if we'd really think if Kingdom Hearts, rather than being a picture book, is just a part of the Verum Rex, which is a game. That'd be meta, because if KH was a game, then everyone that we know, may be just game avatars of the real people somewhere in Yozora's world. It'd also explain why the Master was able to follow and foretell the events, it's like he's one of the developers that knows the scenario of Verum Rex(which includes Kingdom Hearts) that wants to use this game to make it a part of his own reality. The Master did create a data world for the Dandelions, so it'd not be strange for him to be a programmer and a scholar. Then, there's a point of Yozora "saving" Sora. Sora use of the Power of Waking may've been considered a cheating in Verum Rex, and that's why he was about to get punished and banned from Verum Rex, but the Master told Yozora to "save" Sora by defeating him & crystalizing him in order to preserve his data. It's wild. Not my comment i copied it from ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TPu1iCIuafo.html but i think Shiroshii got something give him the credit!!! for this theory ^^ Thanks for reading ^^ and have a great day!!!

Wow you just blew my mind but I was expected at some point to be reveal everything will lead back to where this project begin but we won’t see it until late 20s

At this point I’m not sure if even nomura knows whats going on

If they resolve all of this by saying none of it was real, it will legitimately ruin everything that is special about these games! There’s nothing that they could do that would be a bigger disappointment than that. A close second to that for ruining kingdom hearts would be ditching the Disney, fantasy type stuff in favor of this ultra realistic approach. The only proper resolution in the end is a Sora return and a happily ever after. Cheesy? Absolutely, but that’s kingdom hearts and that is what MUST happen in the end. Anything else will not only ruin what is so special about this series, but in all honesty, it will kill any replay value for any of these games that we all love so much. I would legit never buy another product put out by Nomura or square enix again after such a slap in the face.

An Oath to Return to me (when I first saw that line after seeing the hints about Yozora being the original Noctis from FF13 Verses) is Normura's oath to have his beloved cancelled game return from it's, well, 2006 long absence. Verses was the Final Fantasy game we wanted, but Final Fantasy Crystalis* AKA Lightning/Cloud2.0 was what we got instead.

Did you recognize the song in the secret ending? In my opinion its a medley of dearly beloved and somnus from ffxv. Maybe it's a clue for this riddle

Yozora seems as though he can pull weapons out of air like Noctis. The two weapons he summons are in Noctis' ancient royal arsenal. The crossbow and The Sword of The Father. He even swings it downward like Noctis when he finishes the combo with the sword and says, "YOURE DONE!"

Remember when kairi said she was from the city but couldn’t remember her parents or where she’s from maybe they will play on that

What about the idea that Sora is the true king, or royalty in some manner? There is a lot of symbolism with sora, and kings. his main key, the pendent he wears, the old art of him on a throne... perhaps donald and goofy going off to find both the king, and a keyblade wielder, is not a coincidence that they happen to find Sora. Perhaps Yozora is trying to rescue the royalty... He is called a Commander, and we don't yet know what he is a commander of yet.

So I did not grow up playing Kingdom Hearts except watching clips here and there, but I was always fascinated by Final Fantasy Versus XIII. I recently learned or even noticed how Yozora looks very similar to the 1st Noctis from the first trailer of FFvXIII. And how Final Fantasy characters are enmeshed in the KH series. And then the whole fascination over a game that never was, could it be manifested to KH4? Themes such as Yozora turning Sora into crystal, and how FFvXIII/FFXV use crystal powers, and the glasses guy at 3:44 looks very similar to Ignis. Also I can't get past the boss battle in Alice in Wonderland for KH1. I would love for it all to be a dream, and Sora returns to his normal life and family and friends, but we would also have that fated chance to play Final Fantasy Versus XIII as from the original trailers from 2008 - 2011.

i dont want KH to go full FF realistic but i would however like a verum rex game that gives us more info on exactly what type of character yozora is and his origins and how he ended up where he is in remind (and i guess have sora as one of the secret bosses)

People are so convinced that just because it’s the Voice actor of Luxord, that it’s gotta be Luxord in the car. Y’ALL ACTING LIKE THEY DIDN’T HAVE ROXAS ABSORB INTO SORA AT THE END OF KH2 THEN HAVE THIS RANDOM OLD MAN HOLD ROXAS OFF A CLIFF AFTER CRUSHING HIS HELMET during the secret ending of Final Mix. Of course, we later found out it was a different character, Ventus. But come on. Don’t be fooled by this. We literally all gushed over Jesse McCartney talking to himself (Ventus and Roxas fighting against Xehanort Clones) then completely forget about that when we hear Luxord’s voice.

all I know for certain is that the story will get even crazier and more convoluted in the next installments

I think that in real world where Yozora with 2 friends, battle broke and killed 2 of his best friends and only Yozora survive, the "hearts/Soul" went to the Final World but "yozora friends has a strong attachment to each other aka Lovers (Sora and Kairi) manifested a body on its own hence the Born of Sora and Kairi.... As the Keeper Chirithy guide them to to the new world "Destiny Island" as they cant go back to the real world anymore.... So Yozora found away to go to another world by making technology to replicate themselves and travel into different dimension with a mission to find them and so the "the birth of ORGANIZATION 13 with a fragments of the real world memories hence the power they got and (the knowledge of kingdom hearts for them to be whole) some partially keep in the replicas memories" hence i think that driver is that gambler from 13 but for unknown reason the replicas memories become corrupted probably due to dimensional travel, hence the NOBODY with no memories and just a puppet wondering around with no goals and the real creator body are just spectators of the events that their replica made and thats why they know whats going on back in real world.... but then the MAster of Master found out that "the real world" exist through the passage of kingdowm hearts.... which he device a plan for the war, etc just to open the door and travel into it (prerequisite to open the door to the real world through kingdom hearts) and thats why the Master of Master is in the real world.... and now the Master of Master wanted to know whats going to happen if the strong hearts remain in kingdom hearts brought back to "REAL WORLD" would have any side effect? and those what i think the Master wanted to see.... if the Dead can come back alive with new body but have the memories intact.....

Just my additions. Pausing and typing as they come up. Timestamps are just where I paused, just in case JS addresses it. First, consider the possible connection to The World Ends With You. The main cast from that game appeared in DDD, which is a game that deals with the themes of sleep and dreams. It also features the 104 building. I know it's based on the real life 109 building, but the fact that they use the same faux name, as opposed to 107, 102, 105, makes me think there's a connection there. 6:29 One thing that Re:Mind made clear is that the stained glass platforms are a representation of the pictured person's heart. Whenever Sora was following one of the Guardians during the final battle, he would see their panel. In the Secret Episode, we see they're fighting on Sora's platform, which is then shown to be within an even larger area. Perhaps after fading from existence, Sora's heart is residing within Yozora, similar to how Ventus was within Sora all those years. 16:16 My theory is that we're seeing dreams on top of dreams here. Sora's weird thoughts were caused by Ven's heart. Likewise, Yozora's weird thoughts are being caused by Sora. This whole thing might cause a loop of sorts. The next game could start with us playing as an unknowing Yozora. It would actually be a good place for a soft reboot of sorts, so new players could get into the series. END An Oath to Return is probably going to be the key phrase going forward, similar to Reconnect Kingdom Hearts was for the last few games. I'm thinking the next game will more or less be independent, and stand-alone. The goal of the next arc will be to connect it back to the rest of the series. Lastly, one details that wasn't mentioned was that while both characters say They've been having these weird thoughts lately, only one says it doesn't make any sense. This depends on if you get the good or bad ending. Yozora says it in the bad ending, while Sora says it in the good ending.

as someone who has been to Tokyo- the city is in fact tokyo. The overhead shot of the intersection you can see the Hachigen-gomai statue

But when Yozora woke from his sleep he still looked the same.
