    Those weren't new recordings. They simply added old lines over the cutscenes for the PV.

    Didn't Xemnas' line seem a little awkward to you when he said "The New You"? It seemed like a melded recording to try to make it work, but it didn't.

    Yeah, the Mario Parties are losing out. I personally thought 6 was better than 7.

    The next one is coming for the Wii, so hopefully the remote can do something for them to bring the series out of its slump. Here's hoping.

    Oh Mari, the pleasure I would have if you did drawings like that on tests I had to mark.

    Love it. Misty, can I use it for my siggie? D:

    There's something about the typography that just draws me in.

    You know, I threw out that prompt on a whim, but I'm pleasantly surprised to see what you came up with.

    I didn't intentionally write the prompt in first-person, as I am too, mainly a third-person narrator. That aside, I absolutely adored the style you used for this one-shot. Sensitive placement of the theme of forgetfulness (i.e. almost every one liner contained some conjugation of 'forget'). But what really blew me away was after you established the pace of the theme, you cleverly changed it, then reinforced it again with an unforseen juxtaposition halfway through!
    I just had to quote it. It was so sensually placed.

    The other major element of this one-shot that I liked was the contextual conflict that lingered throughout; an excellent compromise of humour and angst. It was almost satiric at first when your approach was mostly about Olette's inability to remember, but was later completely turned into a light angst when Sora later expressed an insecurity of being forgotten.

    Great liberty taken on Sora's acrophobia, and excellent choice to make the full 180 at the end of the fic.

    A personal favourite. I enjoyed it very much. Grammar mistakes are still there, but hardly an impairment to the grandeur of this one-shot.

    Beta Team is basically a group of people who will be given the demo first. We're going to comb the game for any bugs or glitches before it's released to the rest of you guys. It's not part of the game, XD

    It's kinda like proof-reading a novel before publishing it.

    Well, when FFvsXIII comes out, be sure to take note of its battle system--since the next KH game is going to be somewhat based off it.

    Dude, he was using Reflectga @ 00:31. You don't take damage at any time when that move is used.

    Axel... no polls in Creativity Corner threads. This rule has been implemented since yesterday. =\

    The fic itself isn't bad. I never critique story content, but I'd lose the excessive vowel trailing (ex. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO".) It's very messy and can often destroy the emotional pull you want to have in it.

    StupidAquarius speaks the truth. There is no godlier scene than Sora getting owned by a finger flick. The way he scowled in recoil... it was magnanimous. O_O

    I liked it.

    I think you captured Zexion well, perhaps better than some of the other fanfiction I've read that had a Zexion focus. Your flow is great and your choice of words are well-picked.

    I only have one criticism, although the grounds are strictly preferential above anything else. During elaborate explanations or inferences that characters give to another--when there is usually only one person doing most of the talking--I would find it wiser to use narrative prose over dialogue. Particular mention toward:

    I found this excerpt perfect because it greatly shows clip-chunk repetition in a very obvious manner (One-liner <> paragraph length quote <> one liner, etc).

    I would've personally switched to a narrative stance directly after Travis' "How do you know that?". I find there is more narrative/expositional liberty that can be exercised in prose as opposed to quoted lines. It's also easier to include asides or thought inferences this way as well. Prose is also more flexible in this sense as well and overall I think would've made it flow better.

    Once again, this is a criticism of style--advice you could easily ignore.

    It was clever, though. I liked reading it.

    I highly suggest changing your example.

    That was so inappropriate.

    Well no, it's not strange beating a game without knowing Japanese.

    However, not knowing Japanese will pretty much let you beat the game without learning what it was all about. The extra cutscenes are basically the vital points of Final Mix+, giving us really good information regarding some new things about the netx game and just the story of KH in general.

    Of course luckily for those who don't understand, there are subtitled clips of them on this site.

    Thanks, YouSheng, K a i r i.

    It's great to know that there are still some readers despite that I've gone on hiatus for a little over a month now.

    Just for a little update as to where I am at this point and what to expect:

    - A lot of background history has already been plotted, regarding the significance of Birth by Sleep and Kairi's past and her importance in the second half
    - Will be beginning Chapter 11 sometime today or this week.
    - Chapter 11 will be somewhat like the Prologue (that is, a short scene of utmost importance, but does not take place during the current timeline of the fic). Consider it the Prologue to the second half.
    - I previously mentioned that I expected this to be a 20 chapter fic--it's possible I may exceed that number.
    - The events of Birth by Sleep--although confirmed by Nomura to be a new series--is directly related to Sora's Story in my fic.
    - i.e. Sora's Journey and Kairi's past are directly related to the three Knights and the events that took place in Birth by Sleep.
    - My Pseudo OST is not being compiled at the moment, sorry about that. My finals kept me busy and now I'm anxious to get my fic back underway.

    Thanks for your support, even now!
