Future Titles

Three new Kingdom Hearts games are in development: Kingdom Hearts III along with two other untitled games.[23] The first of the untitled Kingdom Hearts games is expected to be released in 2010, which Tetsuya Nomura mentioned earlier in an interview on Twitter.[24] The game is also expected to focus on Sora as well as another character who has been cited by series director, Tetsuya Nomura, in an interview with Famitsu in February 2010, as being "the center of the series"[25] who was later revealed to be Xehanort.[23] Nomura has previously stated that one of the future games would be connected to 358/2 Days, Coded and Birth by Sleep, and would be more of a main game than a spin-off or sidestory. The game was teased in a secret movie, titled Reconnect. Kingdom Hearts, shown as the secret ending to Birth by Sleep.[26][27]

The second of the untitled Kingdom Hearts games will be released in 2011 and will focus on multiple main characters.[23] In addition, Kingdom Hearts III is currently in the conceptual stages which would mean that it would be the last to be released out of the three upcoming games, Kingdom Hearts III will also not end the series; only what Nomura calls the "Xehanort Saga" involving Sora's encounters with Xehanort. He also adds that the series will not continue on with a new protagonist instead "Sora will be the hero till the end".[23] This release schedule fits with a recent statement Nomura made in which he said he wanted to release at least one Kingdom Hearts title a year.[25] The upcoming games were revealed during an interview with Nomura in March 2010 which was part of the Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Ultimania, a companion guidebook for Birth by Sleep by Square Enix.[23]





/SCREAMS!!!!

So now I find out that tech support doesn't work on the weekends, and they won't give me my goddamn laptop back until Monday, and I wanted it back for tomorrow so I could send it home without needing to waste money on shipping it because I could send it with someone I know. So it had better be goddamn FIXED when I get it back on Monday or I will rip their tonsils out. aaaaaaaaargh.


In other news, ganked this meme from alienchrist!

List the RP journals you have and tell why you chose that name.

( Now that I have enough journals to justify doing this... )

I think I'll just make a random babbly post again! YAAAAAAAAY

I woke up too late this morning to eat breakfast before my CORE Japan class, which is supposed to be about culture and stuff but is actually an econ course in disguise THANKS PROFESSOR KATO >O all the other CORE Japan classes are reading The Tale of Genji and talking about bushido and the Heian period while I am looking at charts s-sob TT__TT So I ate an orange after class let out, which was around 9:45, but it was a little green and now my tummy hurts for some reason. :C YOU WOULD THINK I WOULD BE MUCH MORE EMO ABOUT TODAY, BUT I'VE BEEN SURPRISINGLY MELLOW ABOUT EVERYTHING.

Which is funny, considering all the entries around both my senior and junior years of high school at this time are full of WANGST and EMUUUUU and general fail whining. Perhaps my vow about a month ago to not let anything Masashi Kishimoto does bother me anymore has broadened and expanded to all walks of life? I HAVE ACHIEVED ZEN THROUGH CRAPPY MANGA 8D and capslock, too.

Polanskigate is full of fail, but other people have expressed their rage far better than I ever could. My problem is, I can at times be extremely eloquent, and at other times be extremely angry, but I can rarely be extremely eloquent while I'm angry. D| So either I look like some cold dispassionate person who doesn't really care, or a SPITTING FOAMING BALL OF RAAAAABIES. I can't win. I also feel kind of awkward and bad because this whole stupid story came out a day after I started writing that huge M-rated fic mentioned in an earlier post, and I'm starting to feel uncomfortable writing it because like I don't know, it's just weird to be really angry about Polanski and then write something involving dark themes that are similar and I feel kind of bad about it. But at the same time, I haven't written this much this fast since...um, a long time. WHY DO I FAIL AT BEING A NORMAL HUMAN BEEEEING SOB *forks self in head* fine, I'm going to hell, whatever.

I wanna get a DS and play 358/2 Daysssss~~ Kingdom Hearts, I miss you. ;_; (Is there a Riku portion of the game? Is there? Please? *WANTS*)

It's so cold here nowadays. D| It also has rained on/off nonstop for FIVE DAYS. graaaaah upstate New York D| D| D|

( ...and the gunslinger followed. )

DAVID GALLAGHER.

LET ME HAVE YOUR BABIES.

EDIT: ALSO, I'M MADE VERY HAPPY BY THE FACT THAT MOST OF RIKU'S CUTSCENES INVOLVE STRATEGIC CAMERA ANGLES OF HIS SEXY BACKSIDE.

EDIT 2:  THEY TOOK AWAY CHRISTOPHER LEE.  IN MY FAVORITE NON-RIKU CHARACTER.  THEY TOOK AWAY CHRISTOPHER FRACKING LEE.  THOSE BASTARDS.  FIRST REPLACING BILLY ZANE WITH RICHARD EPCAR AND NOW THIS?????????????  D:<<<  DISPLEASURE, I HAVE MUCH OF IT!

LAST EDIT: There needs to be some sort of Academy Award for voice-acting in a video game, and David Gallagher needs to win it.  Not for Riku--for the Replica.  My.  God.  I cried, like, twice.  His voice breaks in all the right places, and he stresses all the right words, and gives it just the right mix of snark and anger and sadness and confusion and rage against the world for what he is and isn't and..... just wow.

I have to stop this.

When you see this, post an excerpt from as many random works-in-progress as you can find lying around. Who knows? Maybe inspiration will burst forth and do something, um, inspiration-y

ganked from ana.
