TheFifteenthMember and I have spoken about our thoughts on this issue. Both of us regret that this issue is bare-bones and watered-down compared to previous issues. To be fair, the last quarter is often the quarter of commitments, especially with the holidays. I regret especially not being able to contribute like I did in Issue 6 with a host of things that I felt I was able to do, e.g. the poll results graphic, the walkthroughs in Dive to the Heart, coloured lineart, &c. Regardless, I really want to thank everyone for putting this together, and I was genuinely excited for its release. I hope to contribute a bit more for the next issue -- maybe not to the same activity level as Issue 6, but at least a little more than I did this time.

TheSilentHero 撃 - Smash! — 12:58, 9 January 2016 (UTC) Although this issue may not be as extensive as previous ones, it still has a lot of good articles. I'll certainly try to do more for next issue. I do have one question regarding the first riddle: Who is that? (I have seen the answer, but I don't recognize the name from anywhere.) Also, there seem to be some red links here and there.

My understanding is that Riddle 1 would have been an example of a normal person who got X'ed by the OXIII. EDIT 13:26, 9 January 2016 (UTC): One of the things I'd like to do for the games section is a pub quiz-style "unscrambling the words." Some of you may know how this works. But basically, I have words that actually exist, but don't necessarily make sense. Unscrambling and rescrambling the words will lead to the name of a Keyblade, or something else. What do you think?

TheFifteenthMember Yes. You're creepy. I can't say we'll miss you while you're gone, so it'd be best if you did go. We all win that way. — TheFifteenthMember 14:12, 9 January 2016 (UTC) TNE is right, I took a random common name, added an X and scrambled it. About your idea, bring it up at the Journalist Spot (once I've updated it) and we can discuss it more there.

Discussion Topic

Will Frozen be in Kingdom Hearts III? Discuss this issue's "Discussion Topic" here!

Why have I a feeling that this thing is just too popular to disregard... Like honestly, there are Frozen ripoffs left, right and centre everywhere I look, Frozen licensed content, Frozen this, Frozen that. And at least at the start, Elsa got far more attention than Anna, though that seems to be balancing out... In spite of all this, I just don't know how they might make it work. Don't get me wrong, I think they would and it'd be more fitting in KHIII than some of the other content that Disney currently owns. There are some things even the stars cannot tell me. • TroisNyxÉtienne — 23:05, 8 January 2016 (UTC)

ANX219 Or when I'm by the sea... When I look at the water, and hear the waves lapping against the shore... it's almost like I can hear another voice. — 00:41, 9 January 2016 (UTC) Frozen happened more than two years ago and I havae grown weak and weary of hearing let it go in the back of my head every time i saw it. Really overhyped fro what it actually is. There's been [too many] spin-offs of it for me to fully enjoy it anymore :( Even though I adore Ana and prefer to spell her name like that. Praying to Nomura that he will be wise enough to not plug it into the matrix. Speaking of other worlds, (which is kind of old news but) I love how they decided to add Big Hero 6 into it. The original idea of Sanfransokyo (the mash-up of cities) is a really good reflection of the collaboration between Final Fantasy's characters and KH's.

Big Hero 6 would make a far better fit into the universe than Frozen, but I don't know what sort of KH1 throwbacks will be done here (i.e. a place with a particular element granting you a particular use of magic, cf. Olympus Coliseum and Thunder / Lightning). Oh crikey, that'd actually make a good analysis to put into Keyblade Master, but I digress. I'm of the mind right now that I don't want to see Frozen, but that's a close second behind saying I don't want to see Star Wars in KHIII.

TheSilentHero — 12:58, 9 January 2016 (UTC) Although I haven't seen Frozen myself, I think it is very likely to be included, as it is one of the more popular movies. Personally, I don't really mind, as long as they don't use "Let It Go" as the field theme or something.

TheFifteenthMember Yes. You're creepy. I can't say we'll miss you while you're gone, so it'd be best if you did go. We all win that way. — TheFifteenthMember 14:12, 9 January 2016 (UTC) BlueNctrn's tracks works really well.

With the desperation of a musician I have to cry out that just because BlueNctrn's tracks work really well, doesn't mean SE is going to use them. Besides, considering Yasunori Mitsuda sought Erutan a.k.a. katethegreat19 after not scouting anyone else, I think it's really rare that an indie artist is going to make it that far. (If they do take BlueNctrn after all this, though, I'd be pleased, but I'm not counting on it.) Why did the Keyblade choose me? I have to know. • TroisNyxÉtienne — 14:42, 9 January 2016 (UTC)

Cover

Hold it i added the logos and text to the cover why am i not credited in it as well? Byzantinefire - There are no strings on me (talk) 23:10, 8 January 2016 (UTC)

I wasn't aware. I'll add your name. TheFifteenthMember 14:12, 9 January 2016 (UTC)

Yellow eyes

Yellow eyes are not related to darkness. Nomura has explicitly stated that they denote a connection to Xehanort."We're werewolves, not swearwolves." (KrytenKoro) 05:57, 28 February 2016 (UTC)

Heartless have yellow eyes. TheSilentHero 11:38, 28 February 2016 (UTC)

Xehanort has connotations to the darkness so yellow eyes are still tenuously linked to darkness. TheFifteenthMember 15:03, 28 February 2016 (UTC)

There may be a tenuous link from an out-universe design perspective, but the context it's used in in this article is still very much contradicted fanon that the wiki has been rightly criticized for before, and is spreading disinformation. Per Nomura, the humans with yellow eyes have them because they have a link to Xehanort. We cannot allow the wiki to be spreading something that has been explicitly shown to be false."We're werewolves, not swearwolves." (KrytenKoro) 16:19, 28 February 2016 (UTC)

The magazine only reflects the opinions of the article's author. We should let TNE know and if she agrees, she can add a note at the bottom, correcting the mistake. TheFifteenthMember 16:23, 28 February 2016 (UTC)
