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

Prankster's Paradise is a world which appears in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix and Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance. It is based on the 1940 Disney film, Pinocchio, as was Monstro.

Development

Prankster's Paradise 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 Gepetto, 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.

Story

Before Kingdom Hearts

Prior to the events of Kingdom Hearts, the world was destroyed by the Heartless. During the chaos of the destruction of their world, Gepetto, Pinocchio, and Jiminy Cricket were separated, each landing in a different world; Gepetto was swallowed by the space whale, Monstro, while Pinocchio washed up in Traverse Town and Jiminy Cricket wound up at Disney Castle.

Other appearances

Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix

A digital copy of Prankster's Paradise is used as the battlefield of the "Monster of the Deep" battle at the Mirage Arena, in which Terra, Aqua, and Ventus battle against and within Monstro.

Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance

A recent issue[citation needed] of V-Jump magazine features Pinocchio and Jiminy inside Stromboli's cage, with Pinocchio's nose having grown apparently due to lies. They claim that they are in a circus train trapped within Monstro. The same issue also features a profile of Pinocchio with his trademark donkey ears and tail, which he acquired in Pleasure Island for bad behavior. In all cases, Pinocchio appears to have reverted to puppet form.
