it's still funny to me how some people act as if nintendo made a deal with the devil to get Sora, where instead it was just "You wan Sora?" "yes" "here" "thank"
even funnier are those that were bewildered by disney being involved in the process, as if they don't own KH or as if they'd never do something like this, even if we were already ears in fortnite getting all kinds of crossover shit from disney

Sora's a good boy at the core, probably has good parents (if they didn't fade out of existence or something similar). I think it's a bit underrated when characters just naturally say things like 'please' and 'thank you'.

I've had quite a few similar ideas to this and how to work them into a game (that I said I'd share the ideas of after that terrible fan KH2 "remaster" blog some one shared here, I will later). One of the main ones is a sort of Heartless RTS/Dynasty Warriors style thing where you control heartless, and make new heartless from hearts you steal. It's where this Kunoichi design I made came from. The other was a Missing Link alternative.
It's kind of already a thing with dream eaters in DDD, but I've never played it so I don't know how well it works. I think they could have at least let you control Nobodies when you play as Roxas but sadly not.
>>
>>
>>
Give me an R-rated KH game. Unlock the trunk of a car with the keyblade. Unlock this safe with the keyblade. Magic made the keyblade into a gun. Perform amputation with the Keyblade. Character gets drunk and vapes. Heartless emulating body horror with gore. The F-word. Reboot the franchise with all the new Disney IPs from all those other studios and a grittier storyline but still have hammy nonsense about light/dark. Work in some Christian imagery.

Yeah I had one
I'm not doxxing myself but my nobody name was just my real name backwards with a X at the beginning.

I think my lesser nobodies had a luchador mask with the nobody symbol and instead of bandages around their hands and feet they had zippers

There's only one Rosy Dancer, she's part of a traditional hand drawn fan comic I have on the back burner. She's part of a group of "Unique" Lesser Nobodies that have a lot of willpower but just lacking enough NOT to pop out of the darkness in human form somewhere on their own. They are much stronger than regular lesser Nobodies. It goes through arcs through out the games from her perspective on the Organization as basically just a step above cannon fodder, as well as experiments on them by Org members and her own explorations when not actively under orders that she almost can't disobey. It'd probably be a bit like the 358 Manga, but over a larger time period.
I have a lot of ideas for it, and have a very rough outline of the first arc. But I decided I should play 358 Days first before actually working on it, so I have a better idea of organization members attitudes and personalities, as well as events that happen (for example I had no idea Roxas goes into a coma for over 20 days during the events of CoM. Would have been awkward had I not included that). I'm not a modern videogame tv show writer, I actually will play some of the games. It is the only fan thing of mine that actually has most the actual characters from the games, the others are usually self contained. There's a lot more to it but I don't wanna write out too much.
Pic related is the style. It'll feature a lot of heavy shading. Except I need to do some commissions and buy more pens cause boy they are EXPENSIVE like 6 bucks a pop.

I miss this series
Here's mine, Sora and Shulk would get along great.
>>554443706
We were supposed to get one in DDD
>>
>>
>>554452989
I hate the set deck for Riku but I agree that his story was really neat.
I also like how the Organization is presented, this is our first time seeing them and they seem like an actual threat with webs of sub-groups and motives within the group.
>>
>>
>>
In terms of Sora's killcount would you count the Organization members every time, just the first time before he learned they would be recompleted, or none at all? Similarly what about someone like Maleficent who he fully believed he killed but resurrected.
>>
>>
Counting only the org members pre-DDD and also accessory to murder
KH1
>Sabor, an animal
>I would count Clayton
>Oogie boogie
>Maleficent
>Ursula
>Ansem
CoM
>Marluxia
>Larxene
KH2
>Jafar since he blows up the lamp
>Oogie Boogie again
>Flotsam and Jetsam
>Ursula again
>Shan-Yu for sure
>Decapitated the Hydra to death(nice Fate reference Nomura)
>Demyx
>Xigbar
>Xaldin
>Xemnas
>Luxord
>Barbosa(he helped so it counts even if Jack shot him)
KH3
> 3 Titans (Hercules throws them into space where they explode but Sora helped too so i'm counting it)
>Beckett
>Jones (he helped)
>Master Xehanort himself basically got beat to near death and succumbed to his injuries so it counts
26 total, 23 without the animals. 15 minus the Nobodies and Ansem too, 13 if you don't count Ursula and Oogie boogie coming back to life
>>
>>554463425
>>554465235
Ansem, The Nobodies and Maleficent wouldnt count for the killcount, since they didnt die. Its somewhere close to attempted murder, but the only reason they failed was because of something else (the way Heartless and Nobodies work for the first two, and time traveling for Maleficent).
> 3 Titans (Hercules throws them into space where they explode but Sora helped too so i'm counting it
4 titans actually. And I dont think you can count them as kills for sora, since it was just herk who threw them, and it was after the fight as they were leaving so nothing sora did actually caused their deaths. Similiarly I would say Sora didnt contribute in jones and barbossa's deaths as they died to other things than damage he caused
>>
>>554465235
They're not real kills if they didn't actually die for good. Same for animals/creatures. Oogie also can't really die as seen in other Nightmare Before Christmas media.
So out of your list I would count
>KH1 Ursula (but KH2 retconned it from actually happening)
>KH2 Jafar- Assuming that the lamp dissipating into darkness was it actually being destroyed instead of genie mechanics then yeah.
>Shan Yu- There's enough ambiguity to say he was knocked out, but you can also easily call it a death.
>Master Xehanort- He died from his injuries in the fight. SDG killed him.
Jafar and Xehanort are more definite, the other two are a little more ambiguous.
To address some of the other ones:
>Clayton- He just got crushed by the Stealh Sneak IIRC, wouldn't count it
>Ansem- Sora inflicted damage but he was killed by the light when he opened the door
>KH2 Ursula- Eric killed her.
>Barbosa- Sora fought him, but Jack was the one who actually killed him
>Titans- These aren't the Greek Titans, they're more creatures than people.
>Beckett- The only case where you can say he was a true accessory to a death as it was pre-meditated instead of the heat of battle. What stops me from listing it as a Sora kill is the ambiguity on whether Sora just watched or not.

As for how I would list them.
KH1
>Sabor
>Clayton
>Oogie boogie
>Ursula
CoM
>nobody (lol)
KH2
>Jafar
>Oogie Boogie
>Flotsam and Jetsam
>Ursula
>Shan-Yu
>the Hydra
>any nameless pirates you kill in mandatory fights
>the experiment (while it might be an artificial heartless, it dosent recomplete so it died permanently)
>MCP (a sentient being, and Sora was actively part of the attack that killed him. I dont remember what happened to sark so he might count too)
DDD
nobody? (Im pretty sure everyone who died in the dreaming worlds had really died before their worlds fell)
KH3
>Beckett (while not fullt his kill, he was part of the two ships that destroyed his. And as he didnt try to stop the others he was partly responsible)
>Master Xehanort
So 15 named character kills (16 if sark died to MCP dying whitch was partially caused by sora
>oogie boogie and ursula
I count them twice as they did die in kh1, were resurrected for 2, and died again. Whereas Heartless and Nobodies being destroyed and recompleted are explicitly stated to be different from death

>Oogie also can't really die as seen in other Nightmare Before Christmas media.
In KH2 he is specifically resurrected by Maleficent so at least in KH he can die
>Titans- These aren't the Greek Titans, they're more creatures than people.
They are sentient as they can talk, at least in the movie
>KH2 Ursula- Eric killed her.
I completely forgot that. So 14 to 15 depending on sark
>>
>>554470309
For Oogie, death is just beauty sleep until someone resurrects him. Being easily resurrected is what makes him not count in my opinion. He's like the nobodies except instead of tracking down the heartless and nobody to reform the original you just have to complete some ritual.
The Titans in Hercules have some level of sentience but the Disney version of them are more generic elemental monster than a person/being. I'd argue more for Arges but he's the one movie titan not in KH3.

Kinda? It doesn't reflect attacks but it does have i-frames that would protect you from attack. It can also pull enemies from the ground (shadows and neo shadows) and destroy those trap mines that Data Ansem and Data Repliku cast

>>554480984
I don't think so. It's more akin the KH2 Fire in that it's the strongest spell at close range. The i frames are nice, but you won't get nearly as much mileage out of them defensively. Best general application I've seen for it is to time it with an airstep so the projectile comes out just as you reach your target.

Apparently the KH
>leddit
is making fun of some guy who claimed his kid beat KH1 at 3 years old. It’s a bit of a conflicting feeling, because I was pretty sure I had beaten it at that age. If someone asked me, that’s the number I would’ve given. Admittedly in retrospect, I hardly remember it at all, and my mom told me at one point that she handled the boss fights, so I probably didn’t “beat” it as much as I thought I did.
>>
>>
given how much KH gets mentioned at stuff like the gay awards SE and disney could just ask any of the indie devs to make a low budget game and solve that issue (if they really feel like investor-san won't like a low budget game done in-house)

Comic books are actually so much more fucked up than Kingdom Hearts story and lore. I'm reading some in my long wait for KH4. The meta shit they do is even more nuts sometimes. Which makes me wonder how KH gets so much shit and also what the fick Nomura is going to do with Yozora.
I'm starting to not be opposed to the idea of Marvel in KH too as long as it's not the boring ass movies.
>>
>>554767894
Kingdom Hearts is weird because it does fairytale disney magic bullshit, and it's a videogame logic so dont think about it logic, but serious scifi and fantasy logic from its Square roots and long running continuity. And that Square thing where gameplay is tied to the story directly like Materia and Guardian Forces.
Hearts traveling at light speed meaning they can time travel is my favourite example of hard scifi fairy tale bullshit magic that actually makes sense in universe with rules and shit.

"genshin-like" can just be "free to play gacha that plays like a somewhat normal game". I suppose for it to be truly genshit like it also has to be a zelda botw ripoff in some form, but i'm thinking anon was talking about it simply being a live service game that isn't mission based like UX, DR and i think ML was also gonna be
>erhm technkically every game is mission based!!
then i guess a "there's some kind of free roam between one mission and the other" game, but if we want to go that route you could also argue every KH game is also mission based. Besides com?
tldr there were other ideas on the table besides gps game

the issue with any kh gachas is that what do you gamble to get. In genshin and games like it you get different entire characters characters with their own stories and quests and lore and shit. For stuff like FGO and Blue archive the main draw is the hot anime girls and they also usually get introduced with at least a bit of story or screentime. KH does not do that because the entire fundamental structure isn't that type of game. Not to mention the limits of they can portray Disney characters doing. like outside of mickey Donald and goofy and maleficent and Pete they cant even show up in other worlds.

>>554943851
>different entire characters characters with their own stories and quests and lore and shit
so like all the characters besides Player in UX? And ML too looked like? Like granted, i don't have much experience with genshin games but from what i've seen as long as it has an unique design and a proper name that npc is gonna be playable, story related or not, so i don't see why they couldn't do the same for a KH game

Well thats a reddit screenshot, most fans of pretty much anything on there are pants on head retarded. On X it's like 50/50. Tumblr when people still used it... Unimaginable levels of stupidity.
I mean these are the kind of people if you asked "Do heartless have hearts?" And more than half would say No because they have that little comprehension.

We have had only a handful of screenshots and no other news outside of merch for some time now, the barrel is running dry outside of actual art being being made and people playing through the franchise for the first time wanting to talk about it.

Xehanort tells Kairi that memories within her pertaining to the answer as to where Sora is are long gone in Melody of Memory.
We presume that Kairi went from Radiant Garden to Destiny Islands, but what if she really did end up in Quadratum for a while and simply forgot before ending up in Destiny Islands?
>>
>>
>>555062687
He just meant that if she wound up in an unknown realm then her task of locating the Keyblade's wielder would be immensely difficult. It was a hint to show that because nobody could find Sora, he was in a realm unknown to them.

I was explaining the logic of the theory, not verifying it's validity.
Also it isn't confirmed or deconfirmed. I do agree the Nameless Star is Yozora's Kairi equivalent though. I also do think that the Straletzia in Quadratum is the data one Luxu called the true Dandelion and the one who he sent into the future.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>555098045
That makes zero sense.
Then again, this is an amalgamation of Sora's memories, who sacrificed himself to save Kairi without second thought, so maybe this is some twisted logic born from an incomplete psyche.

I choose to believe this is some mistranslation or some technicality by Nomura.
The ideal is that "unreality" is Square Enix IP worlds. Star Wars would be a world that say Riku, Mickey, or maybe Kairi goes to in this scenario.
This would also explain where the Final Fantasy characters even came from in Kingdom Hearts.

No like, where they ACTUALLY came from. Them being true natives to Hollow Bastion makes no sense because we know that they have some events from their games stories still experienced by them.
For example, Cloud and Sephiroth's dispute only makes sense with the context of (Spoilers for FF7)the Jenova project and Cloud's time serving in Shinra's military. Unless there is a Nibelheim and Jenova project in Hollow Bastion, he presumably came from his true world

>For example, Cloud and Sephiroth's dispute only makes sense with the context of (that whole thing being an ad for advent children)
at least in KH2, in KH1 it was just a nod. And even then, they talk about it in very KH terms with Sephiroth being Cloud's darkness or whatever. it very much makes sense in that context, especially at the time when your heartless and nobody weren't supposed to be just you but some kind of warped version of you

That still leaves a lot of holes. Did Radiant Garden have Gunblade making blacksmiths?
In Final Fantasy 7, the Buster Sword was made by Angeal's father, who made it in Kingdom Hearts?
What of Aerith and the Cetra?
And what do you think Quadratum is then world wise? If Kingdom Hearts is a union of Disney and Final Fantasy then wouldn't it make sense for one side of reality to be Disney and the other Square Enix?
>>
You know i'd unironically take a remake of KH1 like they're doing with FF7. We still have KH1 in HD to play so a remake could do some new interesting stuff with the game and make it feel and play differently for a new experience. Also i want to see the worlds in KH1 but bigger and more detailed.

no cause KH isn't any of that, KH is just disney with some square enix characters throw in. As you yourself realized, they're not even put in a way that makes much sense, cause as Nomura said they didn't put any thought in it, they just needed side characters to guide the main KH oc through the plot stuff and that's it. Had they got more time they would've made oc characters for that too, but given the opportunity Nomura just thought of reusing his own characters (and Vivi in KH2) and that was it. It's also the reason FF characters gradually disappeared, cause they also gradually started making more KH OCs that more or less replaced the FF characters and their role in the plot
>>
>>555111184
>no cause KH isn't any of that
The implementation is hardly equal between the two, but that is the core of the series conceptually.
Again I ask, what will Quadratum even be then? I don't think anyone wants it to be the "live action reality"
>>
>>
>>555111292
>Again I ask, what will Quadratum even be then?
you say that as if my answer has to compete with yours, but we just don't know. And even then, it doesn't have to be anything but "more of the same", except it's the place you apparently end up if you die but not really or whatever, like it happened to Sora and Strelitzia. Like there's nothing that says unreality has to be the world of something, some people just have that assumption
>>
>>555111504
I don't think it is an assumption to presume that Unreality will be different than KH reality.
The art style is completely different and it is built up over multiple games now to be conceptually different than the KH reality.
The Master of Master even alludes to it as a world he can't conceive.
>>
>>555111292
>Again I ask, what will Quadratum even be then? I don't think anyone wants it to be the "live action reality"
It literally can't be because we have live action in Kingdom Hearts and the OCs aren't lice action at all they're more of whatever the fuck you would call Final Fantasy 8, 10, and 13.
>>
>>555111674
sure, but "different" doesn't mean "oh noes it's gonna be about the live action disney movies!!". Nor does it have to mean "SE worlds" or anything like that, especially since we technically got both of those things in the "reality" kh games already
also, the artstyle is different in quadratum, not unreality as a whole, like you can see in the KH4 trailer when Donald and Goofy show up they're not "real life cgi" like

To be fair it makes perfect sense thematically. FF7, CC and Hercules were all about heroes. And its a callback go Cloud in KH1.
>>
>>555111834
>>555111890
Kingdom Hearts OCs were normally Square Enix shaped into Disney proportions. Sora has visual references to Mickey Mouse because they couldn't use him as the protagonist. Quadratum so far is Nomura's other art style. I dont know what to call it. Long ass humans like when he went from popeye FF7 to FF8. And they're all based on a combination of vs13 but with references to Sora Donald and Goofy. But Yozora has Riku's hair. And Nomura once said he made Sora to look like all his characters up to that point combined. He's also very obviously inspired by Sion from The Bouncer. I dont know what any of this could mean. Or why I'm posting it besides I have insomnia

Speculating about KH makes me depressed now that games take so long to make and Square seems to get stupider every year.
>>
>>555111890
yes i hit it submit too early, i was meaning to add how they also said it themselves in interviews (that i looked up just now, didn't want to be something i made up) that the "realistic" artstyle is for quadratum and the rest of the game/other worlds will have other artstyles as usual
i guess you could argue we don't really know what that actually means, but still
>>
>>
>>555112327
At the very least, that makes me feel a bit better about KH4 artstyle wise.
I always expected the non-Sora stuff to have the KH look, but hopefully the main Sora gameplay does as well outside of Quadratum.
With that said, it is odd to make such a big deal about "the other side" and have it just be regular KH stuff.
>>
>>555112579
my own assumption was tha the big deal about unreality was it not having darkness and whatever, which was what MoM was talking about. And the "world of the dead"-ish thing it also has going on, but even that might not mean much. I mean hell, we don't actually know if KH4 is gonna be all set in unreality, maybe that's just Quadratum and when Sora meets with Donald and Goofy they get out of there and the rest of the game with the disney worlds is in the reality part again
>>
>>555111504
>more of the same", except it's the place you apparently end up if you die but not really or whatever, like it happened to Sora and Strelitzia. Like there's nothing that says unreality has to be the world of something, some people just have that assumption
nta but I think it's the world/realm of unreality because hey just straight up say it at the end of MoM so that's what it's going to about. What is unreality? Fiction. What does that actually mean? Well part of it an allusion to death which is why dead people are there. The afterlife in real life being a story which may or may not be fictional depending on your point of view like Christian's, Greek etc. And reality/fiction depends on your point of view because everyone in Quadratum is real and Sora is fiction to them. Stories and mythology make ideas live forever so it's a form of immortal afterlife.
That's what I think they're going with that anyways.
Ironically that means I think the world choice doesn't matter since each world is both real and fictional at once.
>>
>>
>>555112901
If there's no darkness or whatever the fuck MoM was going on about there's a chance the Disney worlds aren't separate from cities like Quadratum. Actually the star mentions other cities I think. Those could have been Disney worlds for all we know.
My biggest cope besides me not going fully bald when KH4 comes out is that disney loosened their restrictions on things crossing over with eachother for Nomura.

I'd just go with Critical. You can get through the main story fine on it.
What it means by the secret ending is that after every KH ends there's a secret movie that can play after fulfilling certain requirements. If you play on Critical you'll get it for just finishing the game. Outside of Critical, the easier the game mode the more of the game you have to 100% to see the secret ending.

I thought that confirmation was just that the Shibuya in KH4 isn't the Shibuya from TWEWY, but that doesn't mean there can't be TWEWY characters in KH4's Shibuya. (Like how there's alternate versions of the characters in the Another Day Shibuya in TWEWY and NEO TWEWY and/or whatever happened in Reynatis to have NEO TWEWY characters show up in that Shibuya.)

This is true for quite literally anything.

How stupid are the people making decisions about Kingdom Hearts to try to tack on a GPS system?
In what universe would executes choose to copy Pokemon Go over Genshin Impact?
It is insane, and I don't mean the open world aspect of Genshin I just mean the monetization style and the fact that it doesn't have any stupid mechanics tacked on.
Think about how many millions Square Enix have not only wasted but also lost in opportunity due to this massive fuck up.
Better yet, they could have reworked Missing Link to remove the GPS system (this would not be as simple as a months dev work, but it 100% could have happened) and have it launch with a native PC launcher as well and maybe refine the gameplay a bit and the game would have done certainly well enough to recoup costs.

Just like with all things in life it’s a matter of skill. The models in kh3 were pretty low detailed and it’s weird because some of it was definitely intentional like the hair. They just thought it looked good. I think they will look better in kh4 because if you just compare what they’re going for with Donald and goofy in the kh4 trailer to anything in game from kh3 and you see a marked improvement in textures

It's been 7 years since KH3 came out, 6 since MoM. We've discussed just about everything we can.

No, but there is an engagement troll that likes to pop in every now and then and say KH2FM is better than [other game] and that KH3 is the worst thing that's ever happened. The rest of us generally share your opinion. It's flawed, could be better, but still pretty good.

>Obviously KH2 is still better but KH3 was still very solid imo
i still don't see how or why KH2 is better, i think they're both pretty much the same. If anything KH3 has a few things i like better like actual status ailments and generally a (very slight) more rpg approach.
And ye discussion on these games has gotten stale cause there's a vocal minority of people that like a very specific kind of gameplay imposing themselves on others and won't let you just say shit like "i think KH1 is good" cause it doesn't have their favorite iframe bullshit gameplay. Some are so far gone thinking KH is somehow similar to devil may cry, or that it should be more like devil may cry, it's crazy

Thats lame. I find Re:Com gameplay to least to my liking but you wont see me bashing it heavily. I like that every game is different. Its one reason I enjoy the franchise so much. There are times Im feeling BBS gameplay more, Re:Com, etc. Makes them really replayable. Just wish there was more fans that love the franchise as a whole.

>>
Oh no, the ports of these games have sold like trash because this franchise is dead. People just want an acknowledgement that's an actual product. What will really make people foam at the mouth is real KH4 news, but all of that excitement will be stifled when the game bombs harder than Forspoken because fans called it quits after KH3.

>missing link alongside days and coded is stupid anon
It isn't, it might not be intrinsically linked narrative wise but thematically it is very correlative.
>Days is about Roxas' lost memories as well as Xion, a being made entirely to absorb memories
>Re:Coded is about Sora's lost memories, specifically his conversation with Namine and the mysterious journal entry(ies)
>Missing link is about a lost era in memory of the MoM/the unwritten era.
It is more of a "our .5 collections have 3 entries so we can't put 4 things in Re:Union and 2 in Re:Member" but it still thematically works.
I also read that Nomura hinted that Missing Link would explain how Riku was able to have Kairi's Keyblade in Kh2, but I can't verify if that is true.
And then of course Luxu ties into the post-CoM and pre-DDD narrative by being Xigbar.

But content and story wise they are both long enough that, even with cutting stuff, they would be full sized games.

It's more so that why would I buy the same collection of games for a fourth time?
And if people got a bad taste from 3, a remake of Days would be enough to bring a lot of people back seeing that Roxas is the most popular character in the series.

Maybe a dumb question, but I never got the arenas that you fight the Castle Oblivion Organization members in during KHII: Final Mix
Admittedly I only played a bit of COM, but I remember the boss arenas for the Org members were inside the castle with big white walls on either side instead of the weird "circular arena inside a dark void" that they use for the Data fights (besides Marluxia's having a brighter void)
I thought it might have been because they thought the room would have been awkward in 3D until I played through Re:COM and realised the first Marluxia fight there actually took place in the big white rooms you saw on the GBA COM game

We need a dark timeline where
>Namine doesn't overcome her emotions and desires, obsesses over Sora and willingly works with Maruluxia and Larxene as long as she and Sora can be together after the Organization is overthrown
>Riku never finds Xion while looking to help Sora recomplete his memories, although I still think that Xion wouldn't kill Roxas and that would play out similar.
>Riku still finds Roxas after Xion's death and Another Side Another Story still takes place.
>Instead of housing him to meld him into Sora, Roxas is brought to DiZ by Riku to utilize him to defeat the now awake and emotionally unstable Sora.
>Riku eventually convinces Roxas to help him defeat Sora and save him from the dark path he is on the same way Sora saved Riku from being a pawn.
>Seeing the writing on the wall, Xigbar joins Marluxia and Larxene knowing about their ancient past.

I mean, you don't exactly have a lot of options. The easiest way to play is probably the PS4 versions on PS5. The PC versions may have some issues depending on your configuration, and both have the "updated" textures that came with the Steam release.

2.8 and 3 are so we'll optimized for PC that I was surprised by how well they run on my laptop. On the other hand the other games have random crashes and random audio bugs but I played the collections when they just came out to PC so maybe those problems got fixed by now

>>556053726
Performance has been fine for me on the 1.5 and 2.5 games, although I had to change a few settings in order to get them to work well on my current laptop. Namely
>changed from full screen to windowed
>manually set up Nvidia so that it was actually used to run the game
After that, I haven't had any problems

Axel's one makes sense to me since it's clearly based on the Roxas fight rather than any of his COM encounters, right down to using the same Reaction Commands
Moreso wondering why you have Lexaeus, Larxene and to a lesser extent Marluxia in this odd looking "room in the void"
I know this is what they used for these fights in Re:COM for a bunch of other fights (like Riku Replica and the Axel fights) but it felt like a weird placeholder arena rather than an actual place inside Castle Oblivion

Because she's not really Kairi's Nobody. She was born from Sora's body and darkness but reflected from Kairi's heart. She's more akin to Sora and Kairi's daughter than Kairi's counterpart.

>he's gonna be a riku clone, isn't he?
100%
The Master of Masters is a Sora who, instead of using the power of waking to bring his friends back, he went back in time to set up this plan to destroy Darkness for good.
Why does Vanitas look like Sora? Because Vanitas is the primal darkness that the Master of Master, who is a Sora, housed within him as per his plan for the foretellers to be vessels for true darkness to give them a killable form.
Why was Re:Mind its own DLC instead of integrated into the normal game? To emphasis there being two scenarios in the players mind, the Quadratum route Sora in KH4 and the time traveling Sora that is the Master of Masters.
The Foreteller union leaders can be pretty accurately mapped to Riku(Ira), Aced(Terra), Invi(Aqua), Gula(Ventus), and Ava(Kairi)
The mannerisms and personality do also fit quite well with a Sora who has grown up a bit but still retains his silly attitude.

What's in the box? Jiminy's Journal the MoM Sora's Jiminy wrote. The Journal is what gave him the idea for the Book of Prophecies.
MoM Sora never gave his keyblade a name, neither did the Sora we know, who only ever calls it the keyblade.
Why was Sora Chosen if he was explicitly NOT given the ritual by Aqua due to Terra already giving it to Riku? He was already influenced to be able to wield the keyblade from this time traveling.
The Master says that there was a keyblade war before to Luxu, but we know nothing of this in any lore other than these words. But you know who did live through a keyblade war where his comrads perished? Sora.
Sora's core is "My Friends are my power" and the MoM does EVERYTHING through others, he doesn't do anything on his own. Whether it is Luxu, the Union Leaders, or Xehanort his power is always through other people just like Sora.

Doesn't make much sense for MoM to use himself as a vessel for the Darkness only to let it escape(?) and go inside Ventus instead.
I am pretty sure that Luxu and one of the Darknesses even discuss about their numbers and unless they are intentionally both lying, it makes most sense that the one inside Ventus is a separate entity from the one inside MoM. Dark Road also mentions similar numbers.

Unless this is explicitly part of a plan that he has which in this case it would be.

Vanitas is a fragment that escaped rather than the complete darkness which explains the number discrepancy.
