of course it has to be at the JAPANESE version on D23, and not the original one that I have the opportunity to attend. Always something ...
I would love to go to one of these Expos. Unfortunately, they're never near where I live, always far away. Maybe one day. Still, I can't wait to hear what Hashimoto and the VAs will talk about like hopefully their favourite moments.
Fans of Kingdom Hearts! Pray that at this event we'll know more on KH2.5 or KH3!
I have wanted to go to D23 for years since I don't live that far from where it is held, but damn Japan having their own with Kingdom Hearts :c
I'm excited, though. Production secrets are always awesome to learn about, and somebody who attends will write it up so we won't be left in the dark for long
I have never been so jealous in my life :c
But in any case, the event will be super interesting and no doubt there will be images and impressions galore from the attendees!

We should go and do our own! :3

Definitely! But how can we ever top getting Shinji Hashimoto + VAs
I hope they reveal some new info on the Kingdom Hearts series. I hope they post this stuff somewhere. (BTW love the pic of Donald, if there were costumes for a KH game that should be one of Donald's, being the Mage and all)

I'll get Nomura, Utada Hikaru, and David Gallagher.

YES. YES. (and Leonard Nimoy?)

There will probably be photos taken and a brief summary by press, then a ton of info and pic dumps by fans who attended.
Yes, it would be a fantastic costume!

Of course! How could I forget? :P
I know one question that will be asked: What is your favorite World?

And I don't even have that option! >(
Guess it'll be lovely :)
-- but in Japan? wheow, another event I cannot visit, 'cause it's in Japan~
I wish there were like cool KH events in America. I would love to go and meet a ton of huge KH fans like me. But then again, that's why I came to the forums :)
This sounds like the greatest KH related event ever. Kind of a shame that only Japan gets it, but at this point that's really expected.

I completely agree. When I first read the title I almost dropped down unconscious because I'm seriously considering attending D23 this year for my first time, the US one in CA. However, when I reread it was in Japan only I was quite disappointed :( DARN YOU JAPAN!!!
Out of curiosity, what do you guys think is the likelihood that there will ever be a KH-related thing at D23 in CA? I mean anything KH, not a whole amazing, drool-worthy panel, but something?

I agree, I know at some conventions apparently KH panels exist but I know of none around me, but I would also like to attend an SE panel or so that involves and the fans. I attended the Re:Coded and DDD launch events and there were a bunch of KH fans though so it is quite fun to see a lot of them ^_^

I'm assuming you're talking about panels made by fans, right? If so, they're usually not that good. Or at least the one that I went to. I went to a KH panel at Phoenix Comicon and it was pretty bad. The two main guys up there didn't really know what they were talking about (when a fan asked about KH3, the guys DID talk about Versus... but then said "KH3 will probably be released in 2013 at the latest"), some of the fan's questions made me question if they even played any of the games or not, and in all honesty it was just plain boring. No real interesting topics were being discussed, and it really felt that half of the people in there only came in the room to see if the main guys hosting the panel knew anything about KH3. Although there was an extremely well-done Armored Terra cosplayer.

Yeah, I was talking about those lol >_< Guess I was wrong haha However, I guess I couldn't ask for too much as being KH has a long story and there are fans who think they can get along with JUST KH1 and KH2 knowledge, at any KH fan event there are people who assume they know everything when they really don't. The only thing I remember about the DDD launch event line was that there with this guy who cut in line and he was so convinced that Riku was going to save everyone and that Riku was the only person who could save TAV...and I just wanted to slap myself in the face haha
I almost guess that is why a KH panel by SE is less likely in the US because the first question would be "So when is KH3 coming out?" followed by "When you make KH3, can Sora and Kairi make out?" and then it gets progressively worse from there...
