'''Prankster's Paradise''' is a [[Sleeping World]] that is featured in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]'', although a simulation appears in the Mirage Arena in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix]]''. It is based on the Disney film, ''{{w|Pinocchio (1940 film)|Pinocchio}}'', as was [[Monstro]].<!--According to Sora, this world was set in the past, as he mentions that it was destroyed not long after Monstro swallowed Pinocchio and Gepetto.-->

A world based on ''Pinocchio'' was originally intended to appear in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'', but was removed due to time constraints.


Tetsuya Nomura explained that the planned plot for the world was set in a circus and playing off the story of Pinocchio, a puppet with a heart, and the Nobodies who possess no heart, then planned for a sad episode with [[Roxas]] and [[Xion]] looking for hope for themselves. The world would have included [[Pinocchio]], as a human, and [[Geppetto]], as well as the villains Honest John and Gideon from the original film. The profile sprites for the characters still appear within the final game's data.

==Setting and Areas==
==Setting and Areas==
Most of Prankster's Paradise setting takes place on '''{{a|Pleasure Island}}''', the beginning area, the '''{{a|Amusement Park}}''' is a large theme park with a few towers, a Ferris wheel and a carousel. A roller-coaster track is also present, encompassing the entire area. A path leads to the '''{{a|Windup Way}}''', a long path that features some displays from the circus, including dancing {{w|marrionette}}s and the large face of a clown whose eyes follow you. There is also a large room with another carousel with various animals, a rippling path and finally a large room leading to the '''{{a|Circus}}'''. This area is a round room with {{w|bleacher}}s and three trampolines in the middle with some trapeze swings hanging from the ceiling. Another path beyond the circus is the '''{{a|Promontory}}''', that is a short path viewing and leading into the ocean, along this path there is a closed-in area with steps and water puddles. Beyond this is the '''{{a|Ocean Floor}}''', a large sandy area under the sea with rocks stacking on top of each other and whirpools that lead to other areas. The final area is the '''{{a|Ocean Depths}}''', leading to a dark and gloomy section of the ocean that only leads to the area where Sora battles the Chill Clawbster. The minority of Prankster's Paradise is set inside '''{{a|Monstro the Whale}}''', where many of the areas are Monstro's digestive system.

====Prankster's Paradise====
[[File:Prankster's Paradise 03 KH3D.png|thumb|200px|left|The Amusement Park at Pleasure Island.]]
Most of Prankster's Paradise setting takes place on '''{{a|Pleasure Island}}'''. The {{nihongo|'''{{a|Amusement Park}}'''|遊園地|Yuenchi}} is a large theme park with a few towers, a Ferris wheel and a carousel. A roller-coaster track is also present, encompassing the entire area. A path leads to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Windup Way}}'''|からくりトンネル|Karakuri Tonneru|lit. "Machinery Tunnel"}}, a long path that features some displays from the circus, including dancing {{w|marionette}}s and the large face of a clown whose eyes follow Sora. There is also a large room with another carousel with various animals, a rippling path and finally a large room leading to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Circus}}'''|サーカス|Sākasu}}. This area is a round room with {{w|bleacher}}s and three trampolines in the middle with some trapeze swings hanging from the ceiling. Another path beyond the circus is the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Promontory}}'''|岬|Misaki|lit. "Cape"}}, that is a short path viewing and leading into the ocean, along this path is a closed-in area with steps and water puddles. Beyond this is the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Ocean Floor}}'''|海中の道|Kaichū no Michi|lit. "Undersea Road"}}, a large sandy area under the sea with rocks stacking on top of each other and whirlpools that lead to other areas. The final area is the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Ocean Depths}}'''|海の底|Umi no Soko|lit. "Bottom of the Sea"}}, leading to a dark and gloomy section of the ocean that leads to the {{nihongo|'''Sea Surface'''|海上|Kaijō}}, the area where Sora battles the Chill Clawbster. After the Chill Clawbster has been defeated, the exit from the Ocean's Depths is blocked off and the Sea Surface can only be accessed through the Secret Portal, located in the Promontory.

====Monstro====
The minority of Prankster's Paradise is set inside [[Monstro]] the Whale, where many of the areas are Monstro's digestive system. The opening area is {{nihongo|'''{{a|Monstro: Mouth}}'''|モンストロ:口|Monsutoro: Kuchi}}, similarly designed to its ''Kingdom Hearts'' counterpart. However, Geppetto's boat is now on the left side of the mouth instead. There's also only one entrance at the end now as opposed to two which it previously had. Across the water are also various barrels Riku can use to move around on. Leaving the Mouth takes Riku to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Monstro: Gullet}}'''|モンストロ:食道|Monsutoro: Shokudō}}, a massive room with a number of ledges and numerous piles of wood. Beyond here is the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Monstro: Belly}}'''|モンストロ:胃袋|Monsutoro: Ibukuro|lit. Monstro: Stomach"}}, a room with numerous smaller chambers that can be flipped upside down with the numerous uvulas dotting the area. The largest part of this area has a HP-depleting acidic floor, much like a human stomach would have with {{w|hydrochloric acid}}. Unlike many status effects, this one can reduce Riku's HP to 0. After the belly is the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Monstro: Cavity}}'''|モンストロ:腹部|Monsuoro: Fukubu|lit. "Monstro: Abdomen"}}, a large blue-colored room, which can also be flipped upside down. The area appears at first quite open and barren, however, by hitting a specific uvula a lot of platforms will arise from the ground transforming the room radically. At the end is a long-winding path that leads to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Monstro: Bowels}}'''|モンストロ:腸|Monsutoro: Chō}}, a rectangular area that is mostly barren with the exception of two uvulas that allow Riku to flip the room. This area serves as the battle arena for the fight against [[Char Clawbster]].

Prankster's Paradise was destroyed by the [[Heartless]]. During the chaos of the destruction of their world, [[Geppetto]], [[Pinocchio]], and [[Jiminy Cricket]] were separated, each landing in a different world; Geppetto was swallowed by [[Monstro]], Pinocchio washed up in [[Traverse Town]], and Jiminy Cricket wound up at [[Disney Castle]]. Though it was restored after Sora defeated Ansem and destroyed the [[End of the World]] with Pinocchio and Geppetto returned to that world, Prankster's Paradise remained in a deep sleep instead of returning to the Realm of Light, plagued by Nightmare Dream Eaters.

====Side: Sora====
Sora first arrives in the Amusement Park and he marvels at it until he notices Jiminy Cricket, musing to himself about the missing Pinocchio. Sora approaches him, but Jiminy does not recognize Sora, and Sora realizes that this Jiminy is part of the world's dream. Jiminy explains Pleasure Island to Sora, then remembers that Pinocchio had been told by a [[Young Xehanort|man in a black coat]] to play a trick on Sora.
Arriving in his version of the world, an awestruck Sora marvels at it until he heard Jiminy on Pleasure Island, talking to himself and fretting about Pinocchio, who has gone missing after wandering off in Pleasure Island. Sora cheerfully calls out to him, but Jiminy does not recognize him, much to Sora's confusion, and tells the Keyblade wielder that he should not be there. Jiminy notes, however, that Sora's name seems familiar to him. Sora then remembers that [[Yen Sid]] has told him and Riku prior to the exam that real time in Sleeping Worlds does not flow unless one restores by waking it up from its slumber, thus he and Riku will encounter "dreams" created by a Sleeping World in the image of those who have been on it once. Sora quickly corrects himself to Jiminy, and questions why he should not be in Pleasure Island in order to cover his mistake. Jiminy knows what Sora is trying to do, but nevertheless answers him that boys should avoid it because if they play too much, they "make jackamules of themselves". When expressing his concern for Pinocchio, Jiminy suddenly remembers that Pinocchio once mentioned Sora's name, much to Sora's bewilderment.
 
Jiminy recounts the time when Pinocchio was locked inside a cage after he played "hooky" and decided to play in Pleasure Island rather going to school. Pinocchio apologized for doing so, but lied that two "monsters" brought him here in a bag, which only caused his nose to grew longer. Still insisting he was telling the truth, Pinocchio mentions that "a fella in black clothes" told him to play a trick on Sora, although Jiminy didn't believe him until he realized that Pinocchio's nose did not grow. [[Blue Fairy]] arrived at the scene and gently scolds Pinocchio for lying to Jiminy. Pleading for the Blue Fairy to help his nose return to normal, Pinocchio promised to never lied again. The Blue Fairy forgives him, but she warned he will remain a puppet forever if he keeps lying before she returned his nose to normal.


After hearing the story, Sora helps Jiminy search the island for Pinocchio, although this made Jiminy curious to know how Sora knew Pinocchio. Fortunately, Sora was able to avoid the question when he saw "Pinocchio" running, and the pair swiftly goes after him. However, he is just a Dream Eater pretending to be the puppet, as well as another fake they spotted st the top of a tower. Once they saw a third Pinocchio is spotted wandering the park, Jiminy declares it was another fraud, but Sora tells him to give this one a try as well.
Sora agrees to help Jiminy look for Pinocchio and they search the park, encountering several Dream Eaters disguised as the puppet. Jiminy gets discouraged, but Sora spots Pinocchio entering Windup Way, and they follow after him, finally catching up to him in the Circus. Sora rescues him from Dream Eaters, and he and Jiminy escapes  while Sora defeats the Nightmares. After clearing the area, Sora is suddenly confronted by [[Xehanort|the unknown man]] and [[Xemnas]], to Sora's confusion. Xemnas mocks Sora, remarking on Pinocchio having grown a [[heart]] and comparing Sora to a [[Nobody]] before disappearing again with the other figure.


Sora spots Pinocchio surrounded by Komory Bats over a trampoline. He jumps up to save the puppet, then orders him and Jiminy to leave. Sora fights the Dream Eaters. After the battle, [[Xehanort|the unknown man]] and Xemnas reappears to mock Sora before disappearing. Sora questions how he is similar to a Nobody. Sora then learns from the Blue Fairy that Geppetto has been swallowed by Monstro and that Pinnochio and Jiminy ran off to find the whale once being informed, jumping off a cliff into the ocean.  
He continues on to the Promontory, where he is met by the [[Blue Fairy]], who tells him that Geppetto has been swallowed by Monstro and that Pinocchio and Jiminy have followed after him. Sora follows them underwater, and finds them in time to see Monstro swallow them. He tries to swim after them, but he is overtaken by the [[Chill Clawbster]], which freezes Monstro solid. Sora battles the Dream Eater atop the ice, and in the course of the battle, he frees Monstro, encasing him in a bubble. When they catch up to the Chill Clawbster, Monstro escapes the bubble and swallows the Nightmare, blowing Sora away in the process. Sora wakes up on a beach, where he contemplates the events that lead to the world being swallowed by [[darkness]] and Pinocchio, Jiminy, and Monstro being cast into the sea between worlds. The [[Sleeping Keyhole]] appears over the water, and Sora unlocks it.


Sora then goes underwater and finds Jiminy and Pinocchio swimming away from Monstro, but the force of the water pulls him into the chaos, and Pinocchio and Jiminy are then swallowed by Monstro. Sora gives chase, but a [[Chill Clawbster|Dream Eater]] appears and freezes Monstro in an iceberg that rises the top of the ocean, where Sora follows. Sora then fights Chill Clawbster on the clusters of the frozen Monstro. During the battle, Sora frees Monstro, encasing him in a bubble. Chill Clawbster was then defeated and swallowed by Monstro, while Sora falls into the ocean. Monstro then sneezes, blowing Sora away. Sora wakes up on a beach, assuming that Prankster's Paradise was destroyed not long after Monstro swallowed everyone, and also recalls how they soon escaped and ended up in Traverse Town. Sora then spots a Keyhole and unlocks it.
In the meantime, [[Riku]] arrives in the mouth of Monstro, where he finds Geppetto calling for Pinocchio. Riku offers to help search, and Jiminy tells him Pinocchio left with someone in a [[black coat]]. Jiminy accompanies Riku as he explores the inside Monstro, and they eventually find him and the black-coated figure. The figure prompts Pinocchio to return to Riku and Jiminy, then, when Riku demands to know who he is, he removes his hood to reveal Riku's own face before leaving through a [[corridor of darkness]]. Riku tells Jiminy and Pinocchio about his dark past, and Pinocchio and Jiminy ask if Riku has a friend who can show him the right path, reminding him of Sora.


====Side: Riku====
They hear a roar in the distance, and Riku sends Jiminy and Pinocchio back while he continues on to face the [[Char Clawbster]], which he defeats. As Geppetto and Pinocchio are reunited, Riku recalls [[Yen Sid]]'s words on the dreaming worlds, and he unlocks the world's [[Keyhole]].
In conjunction, during his adventure, Riku finds himself inside Monstro and spots Geppetto looking for Pinocchio. Riku offers to help find the puppet and also encounter Jiminy, who reveals that Pinnochio ran off with somebody with a black coat. The two spot the puppet walking with the man in a black coat, revealed to be another Riku as he enters a corridor of darkness without a word. Pinnochio and Jiminy ask if there is anyone that will always be there for Riku. He explains that there is. Suddenly, a vibration happens. Riku orders Pinnochio and Jiminy to head back while he takes a look around, finding the [[Char Clawbster]] Dream Eater and destroying it. As Geppetto and Pinnochio are reunited, Riku recalls Yen Sid's words of wisdom and unlocks the world's Keyhole.

Prankster's Paradise is a Sleeping World that is featured in Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance. A simulation appears in the Mirage Arena in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix.

Development[edit]

A world based on Pinocchio was originally intended to appear in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, but was removed due to time constraints.

Tetsuya Nomura explained that the planned plot for the world was set in a circus and playing off the story of Pinocchio, a puppet with a heart, and the Nobodies who possess no heart, then planned for a sad episode with Roxas and Xion looking for hope for themselves. The world would have included a human Pinocchio, Geppetto, and the villains Honest John and Gideon from the original film. The profile sprites for the characters still appear within the final game's data.

The Rough House is seen in an early render of the Amusement Park, but was removed in the final game. The positions of the carousel and several tents were also changed.

Setting and Areas[edit]

Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance[edit]

Prankster's Paradise[edit]

The Amusement Park at Pleasure Island.

Most of Prankster's Paradise setting takes place on Pleasure Island. The Amusement Park (遊園地 Yuenchi?) is a large theme park with a few towers, a Ferris wheel and a carousel. A roller-coaster track is also present, encompassing the entire area. A path leads to the Windup Way (からくりトンネル Karakuri Tonneru?, lit. "Machinery Tunnel"), a long path that features some displays from the circus, including dancing marionettes and the large face of a clown whose eyes follow Sora. There is also a large room with another carousel with various animals, a rippling path and finally a large room leading to the Circus (サーカス Sākasu?). This area is a round room with bleachers and three trampolines in the middle with some trapeze swings hanging from the ceiling. Another path beyond the circus is the Promontory (岬 Misaki?, lit. "Cape"), that is a short path viewing and leading into the ocean, along this path is a closed-in area with steps and water puddles. Beyond this is the Ocean Floor (海中の道 Kaichū no Michi?, lit. "Undersea Road"), a large sandy area under the sea with rocks stacking on top of each other and whirlpools that lead to other areas. The final area is the Ocean Depths (海の底 Umi no Soko?, lit. "Bottom of the Sea"), leading to a dark and gloomy section of the ocean that leads to the Sea Surface (海上 Kaijō?), the area where Sora battles the Chill Clawbster. After the Chill Clawbster has been defeated, the exit from the Ocean's Depths is blocked off and the Sea Surface can only be accessed through the Secret Portal, located in the Promontory.

Monstro[edit]

The minority of Prankster's Paradise is set inside Monstro the Whale, where many of the areas are Monstro's digestive system. The opening area is Monstro: Mouth (モンストロ:口 Monsutoro: Kuchi?), similarly designed to its Kingdom Hearts counterpart. However, Geppetto's boat is now on the left side of the mouth instead. There's also only one entrance at the end now as opposed to two which it previously had. Across the water are also various barrels Riku can use to move around on. Leaving the Mouth takes Riku to the Monstro: Gullet (モンストロ:食道 Monsutoro: Shokudō?), a massive room with a number of ledges and numerous piles of wood. Beyond here is the Monstro: Belly (モンストロ:胃袋 Monsutoro: Ibukuro?, lit. Monstro: Stomach"), a room with numerous smaller chambers that can be flipped upside down with the numerous uvulas dotting the area. The largest part of this area has a HP-depleting acidic floor, much like a human stomach would have with hydrochloric acid. Unlike many status effects, this one can reduce Riku's HP to 0. After the belly is the Monstro: Cavity (モンストロ:腹部 Monsuoro: Fukubu?, lit. "Monstro: Abdomen"), a large blue-colored room, which can also be flipped upside down. The area appears at first quite open and barren, however, by hitting a specific uvula a lot of platforms will arise from the ground transforming the room radically. At the end is a long-winding path that leads to the Monstro: Bowels (モンストロ:腸 Monsutoro: Chō?), a rectangular area that is mostly barren with the exception of two uvulas that allow Riku to flip the room. This area serves as the battle arena for the fight against Char Clawbster.

Story[edit]

Between Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep and Kingdom Hearts[edit]

Prankster's Paradise was destroyed by the Heartless. During the chaos of the destruction of their world, Geppetto, Pinocchio, and Jiminy Cricket were separated, each landing in a different world; Geppetto was swallowed by Monstro, Pinocchio washed up in Traverse Town, and Jiminy Cricket wound up at Disney Castle. Though it was restored after Sora defeated Ansem and destroyed the End of the World with Pinocchio and Geppetto returning to that world, Prankster's Paradise remained in a deep sleep instead of returning to the Realm of Light, plagued by Nightmare Dream Eaters.

Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance[edit]

Sora first arrives in the Amusement Park and he marvels at it until he notices Jiminy Cricket, musing to himself about the missing Pinocchio. Sora approaches him, but Jiminy does not recognize Sora, and Sora realizes that this Jiminy is part of the world's dream. Jiminy explains Pleasure Island to Sora, then remembers that Pinocchio had been told by a man in a black coat to play a trick on Sora.

Sora agrees to help Jiminy look for Pinocchio and they search the park, encountering several Dream Eaters disguised as the puppet. Jiminy gets discouraged, but Sora spots Pinocchio entering Windup Way, and they follow after him, finally catching up to him in the Circus. Sora rescues him from Dream Eaters, and he and Jiminy escapes while Sora defeats the Nightmares. After clearing the area, Sora is suddenly confronted by the unknown man and Xemnas, to Sora's confusion. Xemnas mocks Sora, remarking on Pinocchio having grown a heart and comparing Sora to a Nobody before disappearing again with the other figure.

He continues on to the Promontory, where he is met by the Blue Fairy, who tells him that Geppetto has been swallowed by Monstro and that Pinocchio and Jiminy have followed after him. Sora follows them underwater, and finds them in time to see Monstro swallow them. He tries to swim after them, but he is overtaken by the Chill Clawbster, which freezes Monstro solid. Sora battles the Dream Eater atop the ice, and in the course of the battle, he frees Monstro, encasing him in a bubble. When they catch up to the Chill Clawbster, Monstro escapes the bubble and swallows the Nightmare, blowing Sora away in the process. Sora wakes up on a beach, where he contemplates the events that lead to the world being swallowed by darkness and Pinocchio, Jiminy, and Monstro being cast into the sea between worlds. The Sleeping Keyhole appears over the water, and Sora unlocks it.

In the meantime, Riku arrives in the mouth of Monstro, where he finds Geppetto calling for Pinocchio. Riku offers to help search, and Jiminy tells him Pinocchio left with someone in a black coat. Jiminy accompanies Riku as he explores the inside Monstro, and they eventually find him and the black-coated figure. The figure prompts Pinocchio to return to Riku and Jiminy, then, when Riku demands to know who he is, he removes his hood to reveal Riku's own face before leaving through a corridor of darkness. Riku tells Jiminy and Pinocchio about his dark past, and Pinocchio and Jiminy ask if Riku has a friend who can show him the right path, reminding him of Sora.

They hear a roar in the distance, and Riku sends Jiminy and Pinocchio back while he continues on to face the Char Clawbster, which he defeats. As Geppetto and Pinocchio are reunited, Riku recalls Yen Sid's words on the dreaming worlds, and he unlocks the world's Keyhole.

Trivia[edit]
