I haven't quite got the fine points down, like...when, or where... It just kinda kicks in whenever it wants to.

Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep is an upcoming game in the Kingdom Hearts series set to be released on the Sony PSP. The game is named after the unlockable trailer which appears at the end of Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix. It will be created by the same team that created the game Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories.
Revealed Characters
The Characters for Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep have been revealed thus far from the trailers of TGS 2007 and TGS 2008, Jump Festa 2008 and 2009 and through various interviews with Tetsuya Nomura and his staff working on this project.
- Terra
- Aqua
- Ven
- Sora (young)
- Riku (young)
- Yen Sid
- King Mickey
- Donald
- Goofy
- Snow White
- Cinderella
- Jaq
- Aurora
- Hercules (young)
Revealed Villains
The villains like the main protagonists and other characters we also revealed through trailers of Jump Festa 2008 and 2009, TGS events of 2007 and 2008 and through scans, playable demos, etc.
Revealed Worlds
It is speculative as to how many other worlds will present in the game thus far (or if the list shown below is the entire list of worlds that will be present at all) since in many interviews it has been implied there will a "normal feel of Disney worlds with one or two worlds where you will be surprised". There will also be a timeshift in the worlds since this does take place a decade before the first Kingdom Hearts i.e. a young Hercules in the Coliseum or a young Sora and young Riku in Destiny Islands. The only summons that have yet to have their worlds present in any Kingdom Hearts games are Stitch, Dumbo, Bambi and Chicken Little, so it could be possible that one of them (if not all of them) will have their worlds represented in the game. Another candidate for a new world is the Jungle Book, which was considered for Kingdom Hearts, but was scrapped due to its similarities to the Deep Jungle world.

Trailer
Scenes of the ending of Kingdom Hearts 1 flash by on the screen, and two phrases are seen clearly on screen. One reads “Deep Past” and the other “Shut-Eyes gives birth to the concealed fate.”
We are then confronted by a young boy who looks like Roxas conversing with another young boy with dark hair. Their surroundings seem to resemble Hollow Bastion (Radiant Garden). The name “Ven” is thrown outward, referring to the boy who looks like Roxas from the Birth by sleep.
The scene change various times before stopping at an image of the Old Man from the Kingdom Hearts 2 : Final Mix+ Secret Ending. He is called Master Xehanort by Terra, another character from the Final Mix+ secret ending. Soon after, Terra summons his Keyblade and the screen changes.
The video then changes back to Terra battling against a Guardian, whom you can tell is male. This is the same man from the Secret Ending of Kingdom Hearts 2 : Final Mix+ that the Old Man creates. Terra is able to forcibly get the man’s helmet off, but his face is concealed.
King Mickey is shown summoning his Keyblade, and then the scene changes very quickly to Terra on a beach. He seems to be watching two boys play in the ocean. After he rests his weapon into the ground, the two boys he was watching are clearer and they look like Sora and Riku. Soon after, Terra says “Please don’t depend on me, just erase me… friend.” The phrase Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep arises.
Script
(The beginning scene is from the ending of Kingdom Hearts to its opening. Words appear: “Sleep gives birth to the concealed fate in the far past.” The boy with different clothes, and has the same face as Roxas, is talking to the person known as Terra who has dark hair. The boy who looks like Roxas is called “Ven” by Terra.)
????: “Are you the one who, at one time, saved me?”
????: “Ah, promise.”
(Terra is shown to continuously face of Master Xehanort who appeared in the Secret Movie of Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix+ in the wilderness. Terra calls out the keyblade in his right hand. (The effect is the same as the man in mysterious armor who “stays put thoughtfully” that appeared in Final Mix+.))
(Though Terra is hostile towards the elderly person, Xehanort, the words spoken were used before in defense of Roxas. Xehanort meets Ven in the Olympus Coliseum.)
Ven: “Who? I don’t know you.”
Master Xehanort: “Only soon, will you know, and you are asleep. The one that was lost was to lose, and the one to be obtained was obtained. You must grab and take it now.”
(Master Xehanort waves his hand in a movement as if to summon magic. Ven watches with an expression that becomes confused with fear.)
(Afterwards, the world of the wilderness appears again. The person wearing a black helmet and black clothes (shown in the Final Mix+ Secret Movie) encounters Ven. The person of mystery blows off Ven. The King summons and uses the Keyblade to momentarily protect a fallen Ven. The scene has changed completely to the wilderness, and this time, Master Xehanort starts to appeal for something.)
Master Xehanort: “Please, I ask of you to correct my mistake!”
(The man says more, but the blog user can’t remember what.)
(Terra is watching the coast of Destiny Islands. There are two boys who are playing using wooden swords as Terra watches from a grove who are speculated to be Sora and Riku.)
Terra: "Please don't depend on me, just erase me... friend."
(Meanwhile, Ven is watching from a similar coast. This place isn’t Destiny Islands, but Twilight Town.)
Ven: “Because he’s my friend,
