Congrats!!
The movie sets up important plot points (such as the new Red King as well as what's going on with Munakata). See the timeline I posted above for more info lol
Do the thing Gabi. You won't regret it.
Stop and go and watch the movie. I'm serious. Things will be A LOT clearer.
Okay everyone. Time for me to list ALL the extra material (minus the short stories. There's too ****ing many, don't even try). Strap yourselves in kids, it's gonna be a long ride. Also DO NOT WATCH THE SECOND SEASON BEFORE THE MOVIE. DON'T DO IT FAM. Manga (there's more than five...): K -Memory of Red- (3 Volumes) K Stray Dog Story (1 Volume) K -Days of Blue- (2 Volumes) K - The First (an adaptation of the 1st season I believe) Gakuen K (Comedy spin-off where all the K characters are going to high school) K: Lost small world K: Countdown K: Missing Kings (adaptation of the movie) K: Dog and Cat (inbetween the first season and movie. Focuses on Neko and Kuroh) K: Dream of Green (Prequel to the second season (maybe the first as well?) and focuses on JUNGLE) K: Return of Kings (Adaptation of the second season) Light Novels: K SIDE : BLUE K SIDE: RED K SIDE: BLACK AND WHITE K LOST SMALL WORD K -R:B- K: Case Files Of Blue K: Kingdom of Red (a bunch more that havent been released yet) If anyone wants links to check them out. THIS person has a comprehensive list (as well a timeline somewhere on their blog) Edit: Here is an image of the timeline (and it still doesn't include everything, sorry):
OH MY GOD. I was talking to Gabi about K the other day actually! K is probably one of my favorite animes. In fact, it was one of the few animes I owned (I lost it. Rather someone borrowed it and I forgot who...). I actually own some of the Japanese manga (because it never got translated into English for some ungodly reason that is beyond me). I actually encourage anyone who liked this series to read the various manga series. There is... five? I want to say? Memory of Red, (which is a prequel with HOMRA and focuses on those guys. Bet you $50 you'll adore them more then you did in the show and it WILL make you cry.) Stray Dog Story, (which follows Kuroh before the start of the series. I wanna say right after his master passes on), Days of Blue (which is another prequel that follows Scepter 4 and their crew (although I STILL can't remember all those dudes names even after reading it)), Countdown, (which takes place after the movie and before the second season), and Lost Small World, (which is ANOTHER prequel that's about Yata and Fushimi). There's also like a **** ton of light novels but those never got translated into English either. Some I don't think even got fully fan translated. I've read excerpts from some of them, mostly the HOMRA kids because they're my favorites (Especially Mikoto and Tatara. They were married and you can fight me.).
View attachment 47354 Recently, Square Enix released their information for the 2017 Fiscal Year (April 1st, 2016-March 31st, 2017). In their report, Kingdom Hearts III's release date is currently listed as "To Be Announced" under the listing "FY 2018 and Beyond". So while this means that we currently don't have a release date for Kingdom Hearts, hopefully, we'll be seeing the game at some point in 2018, fingers crossed!
Mika froze as everything around her.... basically started to go to ****. Making sure Nini was safe in her bag on her back, Mika breathed deeply and forced herself to move. In a clean strike of her blade, the young woman took down three of the Shadow Heartless as if they were nothing. However, after this move, Mika was left breathless, a bit in awe of the fact that she'd actually been able to destroy them (and she wasn't going to lie. She was rather proud of herself as well). "Hey Take, you doing okay?" the young woman asked her partner, a tad amazed at his ability to defeat the heartless as well. HP: 20/20 HP AP: 2/8 Enemies Defeated: 3 Shadows Enemies Remaining: 55 (43 Shadows and 11 Soldiers)
Mika shivered as cracks began to appear all over the ground. The world seemed to shake and Mika was honestly quite terrified, not that she would admit it and was trying her hardest not to show it. Feeling Nini, shake in her arms, she held the cat tighter, petting the cat in an attempt to calm them both down. So when her master told them to take out their keyblades, Mika knew things would probably only get worse. Pausing quickly, the young woman knelt down, taking her backpack off her back and carefully putting her cat back into the bag. "Don't argue," Mika said, scolding the cat, fear seemingly evident in both their eyes. After the bag was safely on her back, the young woman jumped up, summoning her keyblade in her hands. The keyblade seemed to glow in her hands and Mika couldn't help but smile and felt a little better about the situation. She sighed deeply, wiling away her aniexty, and followed Choma and Take. She was grateful when she noticed Take looking back at her and sent the boy a small smile, jumping away from the fissures that appeared in the ground (and being quite relieved that none of the cracks had been able to catch up to her). She just hoped the others had been as lucky as she, Take, and Master Choma.

View attachment 47331 On May 4th, it was announced that Square Enix will be hosting a panel at E3 2017 on either June 13th or June 14th, thanks to an article by Geoff Keighley. This panel will be open to the public and fans will apparently be allowed to ask questions (similar to other panels are various conventions, such as San Diego Comic Con). When more information involving the panel is released, we'll be sure to let you know!
View attachment 47327 News has been pretty slow lately (and mostly merchandise) so it's nice to finally get some new even if it is small! On May 2nd, Game Informer released the cover of the June issue, which features many characters from popular RPGs including Mario, Pikachu, Cloud, and our very own Sora! Sora can be found right next to Aloy from Horizon Zero Dawn with his signature Kingdom Key. With Sora being present on the cover, it should be safe to assume that Kingdom Hearts will be included in the list of Top 100 RPGs of All Time. Special thanks to lovely sorariku on Tumblr for sharing this info (you da bomb, Chas).
Hey everyone and welcome to the Eighteenth installment of the KHV Weekly News Report! As usual, if you're enjoying be sure to let us know down below :)
Congratz again :D
Mika flipped her hair over her shoulder and nodded at her companion, holding Nini tight in her arms. "As much I wish we could do more, you're right," the young woman said, a slight bit of fear evident in her voice. "We need to get out of here--and fast." As Mika ran after her companion, she realized how dark it had gotten. Could it be so late already? Shaking her head, she turned to Take and asked "Do you remember where they said they were going to be? Did they say where they were going to be?" Mika looked at the boy and smiled, looking a tad guilty. Her memory was kind of terrible. She blamed that fact that she'd lost it a few months, although she knew that her partner didn't know that.
View attachment 47291 Thanks to Poncho_Pete on Instagram, we now know that Halloween Town Donald Duck and Goofy are in the works and have been leaked online.

Question Time with.. MIDNIGHT! A couple of guidelines before you begin.. 1 - Keep it within the rules of the forum, nothing over PG-13. This is still KHV, which means that you must not use this thread as an excuse to berate or harass the Question Time participant. That being said... 2 - ...The Question Time participant does not have to answer all of the questions. 3 - The Question Time participant must maintain some level of activity within this thread. Don't leave all of your questions unanswered. You're in the spotlight, baby, so shine! 4 - Give the Question Time participant some time to answer, and let others have a chance to ask. Remember that they are in the spotlight for at least one week, so do not feel the need to barrage them with a lengthy list of questions all at once. And now that you have read the rules, you may ask away!~ @Midnight Star
Happy belated Birthday Kels <3
