"''Another side, Another story...''" was meant as more of a concept trailer, showing whatever ideas {{w|Tetsuya Nomura}} had for a sequel at the time; it was not meant to be taken as an actual part of the storyline for the games. {{w|Kazushige Nojima}}, the scenario writer, explained that, after the story for ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'' was written, he had to go back and find places to put in the seemingly random quotes found in both "''Another side, Another story...''" and "''Another Side, Another Story [deep dive]''". The idea of the Keyblade wielder was affixed to Roxas, and the blindfolded male to Riku.

"The third enemy = Nobody" implies that the [[Unversed]] and the [[Heartless]] are the First and Second Enemies; however, a flashback in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]'' depicts several Neoshadows and [[Darkside]]s ''before'' the appearance of the Unversed, even though the Heartless did not begin attacking the Realm of Light until ''Kingdom Hearts''. Therefore, it is unclear whether the Heartless are considered the First or Second Enemy. According to Nomura, however, the first two enemies are the Heartless and the Disney Villains. "A world between = A forgotten world; The gathering" is a possible reference to the [[The Gathering|secret ending of the same name]] found at the end of ''Kingdom Hearts II'', the teaser for ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''. It is also possibly a reference to [[Castle Oblivion]], a world set between light and darkness, and ultimately forgotten by Sora, Donald, and Goofy. Another quote, "Change — The third key ", may reference the change of heart Riku takes in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', or the metamorphosis his [[Soul Eater]] goes through to become the [[Way to the Dawn]]. This would make either Mickey and Sora or their Keyblades as the first two keys.

Ansem's other report could refer to the [[Secret Ansem Reports]]. [[Kairi]] says "His voice...It's left me" to Selphie toward the start of the game, and says "This time...I'll fight!" when obtaining her Keyblade at the [[Castle That Never Was]]. Sora states "Maybe our journey meant nothing after all" when he is fighting Heartless after learning that defeating them only sends captive hearts to the Organization. [[Axel]] says, "What took you so long, Kairi?" before taking Kairi away from The Usual Spot in [[Twilight Town]]. A [[Dusk]] says, "We have come for you, my liege," upon Roxas encountering it in the [[Simulated Twilight Town]]. Xemnas tells [[Ansem the Wise]], "You are the source of all Heartless," while the latter struggles to bring the [[Kingdom Hearts Encoder]] back under control. The Thirteenth Order is the Japanese name for [[Organization XIII]]. "We'll go together," is the last line spoken by Sora to Riku on the Dark Margin before the Door to Light takes them back home to Destiny Islands in ''Kingdom Hearts II''.
