The hype is too real. At this point, I have to wonder how many playable characters there are just to juggle all the appearances of the previous villains. Although I have to wonder why Marluxia, Vexen, and a couple others would team up with Xehanort. Probably a fake out, just like that Aqua scene but still. This game looks to be REAL packed with story.

Nomura confirmed there will be only one other playable character who will be controllable at one or more specific segments of the game. My mind is saying Riku (again), but I really want it to be Kairi, because we've barely seen her in action and playing as her would be the best way to experience that.

We finally get Master Xehanort's (Japanese) voice actor and its most likely Akio Otsuka.

Even though I know voice actors being replaced is a normal part of the industry, MX's absence in past trailers made me wasn't sure if they'd bring him back as an old man due to Chikao Otsuka and Leonard Nimoy's deaths, like they'd do some kind of convoluted write-around to make him Terranort again. But now we know MX is back as he always was, which means whichever actors they've gotten have some big shoes to fill.

I thought the exact same thing but with Young Xehanort.
