(I hope it's okay to spoil both Japanese X and KHIII at this point)
I don't think that mr 'Darkness' is Vanitas per say but Vanitas is also part of this very same darkness, after all, they teased it quite a bit in KH3 with "What I am is Darkness..."
Far before the keyblade war Ava mention that Ephemer exist in a Unchained state.
There is to me only one known creature which exist on this higher plane, a unversed.
In the mirage arena the final form of what's-its-name is described as being completely unchained and existing on a higher plane.
I found this quite interessting.
Maybe the next enemy is one created from suppressed emotions?
Perhaps there really was a problem with erasing everyone's memories?
Perhaps a great darkness was brewing in the sewers of the subconscious and we're all desperately running from it.
The Darkness/suppressed negative emotions, chained, soon to be unchained, unleashed like the floodgates upon the world(s).
I wanted to connect this to the dark version of the keyblade which exist in the RoD but idk, I think I'll just leave it there.
One more thing though, when the MoM was a kid, could this very same story have repeated in exactly the same way on a lesser scale, in order to seal the true KH in the RoD in the first place?
Edit - Maybe this is stuff everyone have already talked about, been a while since I was here
