Yeah I'm kind of on the fence in regards to Dream Drop Distance, setting aside the actual game itself (which will no doubt be fantastic much like Birth by Sleep was in the gameplay) it feels that this instalment's overall story is going to end up being like a kick to the teeth in the same way that the latter chapters of Bleach were for many fans. And while I still didn't outright hate Bleach for it's fumbles and still look fondly on the good times I had reading it I don't think I'll be able to say the same for Kingdom Hearts after I play this instalment. I guess it's because I hold the series much more closely to my (oh Christ I can't believe I'm actually saying this) Heart...

Ha Ha! You actually refered to your Heart in a Kingdom Hearts related blog, what a dweeb!

Shut up! I feel that whatever Tite Kubo-style Asspull this game might throw at me will actually have a more substantial effect on me as a fan of this series. Yes I've made it clear I've read all the primary spoilers on the KH wikis but if experience has taught me anything it's that reading about it and actually experiencing it are entirely two different things. It may seem like I'm already pissed now but that's just initial reaction to what I learned, if I do play this game whatever contempt I have now will be amplified to genuine rage. All in all I might very well just hold off on Dream Drop Distance altogether until the actual Kingdom Hearts III comes out at which point an actual satisfying end to Sora's story will be readily available.........and on that note I have to ask Nomura to get off his goddamn ass and finish Final Fantasty VERSUS XIII, by all accounts the sole reason he isn't already getting KH3 out the door in the first place.
And yes I sooooo wanna get my hands on VERSUS XIII, I've seen some screenshots, you get to use third person long range attacks and can man the gun of a tank, it's Kingdom Hearts with some third person shooter mechanics and tanks! So! Fucking! Want! Now! [link]

Oh but enough pouting, let me bring up something I just saw on Youtube, the opening movie to Dream Drop Distance...

If nothing else this game has the most METAL opening of all the Kingdom Hearts games. And no I don't mean it has guitar rifts (though that would be more awesome), no, I'm just saying that it's that awesome an opening. Because of the 3DS's two screens this opening is just so incredibly awesome to behold that it easily put a smile on my face and feel pumped for what may follow......well anyway at least check out this opening and if you're inclined watch the rest of the prologue that follows in this vid.I'm still on the fence about this game but hey if this is enough to get you pumped then by all means go for it! The game expected to come out this July 31st 2012 in the US (if the wikis are correct).
