I think that the time is different in every world.
Anyway,here's a picture of the Wheel Master,an Unbirth boss who's shaped like a spinning wheel that Terra fights in the Enchanted Kingdom (The Sleeping Beauty world):
Image
He reminds me of the Trickmaster (The Heartless boss in Wonderland) for some reason.
Anyway he fights him in the throne room,I really liked how he shaped like a spinning wheel,it really fits Sleeping Beauty.

Ariel's Prince are you connected to Testuya Numora coz you know a lot about this game I would love to know where you get your sources other than kh2.co.uk coz that one is obvious ! :)

I would like the Snow White world to be called Tragic kingdom. (but maybe after she lives happily ever the world would be called Magic Kingdom like when they changed Hollow Bastion to umm... I forget lol)

Ariel's Prince if you would know about like a boss/fight with The Queen/ Witch pls tell me coz I'm holding out for it ! But you probably already know that, right ?! :D

No :lol: but I whould really like to talk to him about how the Princesses are in the game (It's just really bothers me what they did to Belle and Jasmine,they made them really stupid).
My other source is Kingdom Hearts Wikia which is sorta like Wikipedia but only about Kingdom Hearts (There's also a Disney wikia but the only full one is the Snow White section,they have most of the information about Villains).
I liked your idea thought there's a name yet,we only know officially that the Cinderella world is Castle Of Dreams and the Sleeping Beauty world is Enchanted so maybe they"ll call the Snow White world Magical Forest or something like that,the other name for Hollow Bastian sounds bad (It was something like Rasident Garden) and I thought that Hollow Bastian sounds better.
I"ll let you now if I"ll hear something :D there's isn't much new infrometion about the Snow White exept a cutscene with Terra talking to her while she's in the forest and for now she's the only character that was shown from her world,by the way-Why do you like Snow White's castle? it looks okay but dark (Yeah,maybe even more the Beast's Castle) and hugh,I like the other castles (Like the Enchanted Kingdom castle or the Atlantica castle) better.
About the boss battles-Ven fights with Lucifer in Castle Of Dreams and Terra fights with the Wheel Master in the Enchanted Kingdom,maybe Aqua will fight with Dragon Maleficent,I think that every characters has a different story or just bosees (Like,Terra is in the Enchanted Kingdom while the castle is cursed and when Ven is there the spell is broken,I think that Ven is more helping the Disney heroes,there's already pictures showing that he helps Cinderella,so maybe he"ll help Aurora,Snow White,Hercules and others).

He'll only talk to you about them if it involve conversation about belts and zippers.

That's cause Nomura doesn't really care about them. He in love with his own characters, if KH2 was any indication to you. Main focus are always about his characters and the FF ones.

^I'm sensing you don't like Nomura....

NEITHER DO I :D He ruined the FF-line... sure ff7 and ff8 were great games, but that doesn't mean you have to make him the head of everything. The whole ff7 and ff13 universe crap just killed off all my interest in the series. Sure I'm gonna buy and love ff13, but that's beside the point...

Yea I like Amano WAYYYYYY better as the art designer.

Although Nomura got good points his work on Dissinia. Which is awesome and he's dedicating his homage to Amano.

Amano is my hero. What's this homage thing though? Sound terribly exciting... maybe it'll change my mind about Nomura :lol:

Thanks for the info Nadav I'll check the wiki more often. :wink:

I like Dark places, some of my favourite places that I have been to are The Tower of London, The Koln Cathedral, you get the picture !

And since I was a kid watching Snow White, there was always something about that castle that I liked, especially in the begining of the movie where you see the castle in the misty background and the freaky music, you get a subliminal message of something mysterious and sinister hidden within it,
Walt was a genious for making that an opening, I think that that castle deserves a place in a future theme park to say the least.
But Beast's Castle was my favourite playable world so far in the KH franchise, but I feel Beast's Castle is like the former in so many ways.

Basically Dissinia is a game where they have one hero and one villain from every FF games(1-10) together in an epic story and battle.

Nomura decided to give the concept art drawings a mix combo between his own and Amano's in homage to him. Since Amano has done the art for majority of the FF games.

All, so that's why Squall was looking a lot more uhm... younger? skinnier? sexier? in the Dissinia cast picture on wikipedia.

Awesome!

Yes, Dissidia is looking to be one of the prettier and good games on the PSP. I just hope the gameplay hold up to its ambitious story and presentation.

As for the Nomura/Amano debate I personally enjoy Nomura's style, but I have to agree that he adds too many accessories and details to the costumes, like too many belts and chains. Amano's style is downright beautiful and does the series more than justice. I have the FF IX artwork book and I love it to death. His problem, though, is that no game machine could ever do justice to his style. That's why Square seems to prefer Nomura.

His designs can easily be translated into 3D. Even with all the wacky chains.

But in the end, but artists bring something interesting to the Final Fantasy series.

I like the the older looking Squall a bit better from FF8. The way Amano drew him in that FF8 logo image make him look really big, handsome, broader, and tall.

Also artwork for the FF 5 characters been revealed: Bartz and Exdeath.

Terra of FF6 is confirmed. as well Cloud.

Thanks so much for the video,Jack Skellington :D but one thing-He's name is Terra,not Ven (Ven is the one that looks like Roxas).
So the Sleeping Beauty world in now Enchanted Dominion insted of Enchanted Kingdom? it's okay but I like the Enchanted Kingdom better.
It's hard to hear but... when he doesn't fight,the music isn't Once Upon A Dream (It's hard to hear but something about it sounds a little like Once Upon A Dream).
I really want to know what happens after he enters the castle :D I liked how he found it.

The Enchanted Dominion really translates well into 3D.

Thanks for the vid Skellington.

Your very welcome guys.

Your right Nadav I meant to say Terra instead of Ven.

They say that the TGS also has another preview this time with Aqua (blue haired girl) fighting in the Snow White world, hopefully she's doing it somewhere near the Evil Queen's.

That would make seance Nadav, she could really be in the Evil Queen's castle, take a look at this description of the new trailer from TGS :

BBS Trailer Report From The Light in Chaos
The trailer was the same as shown at DKS3713 except these scenes were added.

Background Music: Fate of the Unknown

Castle of Dreams.
Aqua glances Cinderella running to her carriage, and runs after her.
Cinderella drops one of her glass slippers.

In the world of Snow White.
Aqua looks into a mirror and the figure of the evil witch is projected.
Aqua jumps for a moment and steps back, then plunges into the mirror.
( :D HALLELUJAH !!!! :D )

Aqua's battle scene.
Her fighting style seems like floating.
She does not hold the keyblade, the keyblade attacks as if it knows her intentions.
Sort of like Final Form from Kingdom Hearts II.
Her mode changed to something pink, but the name of it is unknown.


Ven's modes were: Cyclone, Speed Rave, Firebreeze, and Thunder

You could not repeat a mode consecutively.

The items Ven searches for were a white ribbon, lace, and one among two pieces of cloth.

In Ven's level you ride a ball of string, it's kinda scary.

Thunder mode is a temporary name for the official name of the mode. (The blogger forgot the name of it)

Ven's techniques: Attack, Cure, Rush, Fire, Thunder, Fire Blitz, Strike Raid, Final Break, Zero Graviga

When playing as Ventus, in the Thunder mode, you could temporarily use techniques like Strike Raid and Zero Graviga. The finishing moves in normal mode was cure and regular attacking.

When playing as Terra, it seems the main finishing move in normal mode was a freeze attack.

Fatal Mode is an attacking system based on dealing heavy blows.
