View attachment 47119 As reported earlier, more canon scenes have been acted out by the series' voice actors at KINGDOM HEARTS Orchestra -World Tour- (like the Terra and Namine scene). Twitter user @momo_krys was able to translate scenes involving Kairi and Xion, and they can be read below: Kairi: Xion:
how she had become friends with lea and they have nicknames Wow... didn't expect those two to become a duo so quick xion’s voice actor came to the stage when vector to the heavens was playing and thanked roxas and axel for everything I'm not gonna cry... I'm not gonna cry...
~Tokyo's District 12 - Chinese Restaurant~ As Star and Marco were having lunch at a local Chinese restaurant, the following happened: Spoiler: Actual HSD Footage "Let me open the next one!" Star exuberantly said as she took out a fortune cookie from the box and opened it, reading, "'A great evil has been unleashed.' What?" "Eh, I wouldn't read too much into it," Marco replied, "I was just messing with you when I said those fortunes were magical." "Hehe, oh you kidder," Star said as she gave him a playful punch in the shoulder. Spoiler: BGM Elsewhere in the restaurant, a certain lizard watched Star and Marco while hiding his face behind a menu... As he continued spying at the two, Toffee felt his phone vibrate, and answered it, "Hello... No sir, so sign of Fury, Chiba, or any of the others in District 12... I understand... Yes... Hail the Crystal Order." As Toffee hung up, he adjusted the J.I.A. logo pin on his suit before continuing to spying at Marco and Star. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Gringey City, Japan~ As Hiro and the others passed through Gringey City (a city between Celadon City and Fuchsia City that at one point was a bustling place, got overcrowded with factories and eventually abandoned), with May and Skye driving the SUVs they used to escape the J.I.A.'s eyes, Shining Armor asked Hiro, "You sure this is the place?" "Well, this is the address Dr. Pym gave me," Hiro replied, looking at the crumpled piece of paper that Dr. Pym wrote an address on. Meanwhile, in the SUV that May was driving, Fitz and Simmons looked out the window to see Gringey City, with Fitz commenting, "What an awful looking place." "Hard to believe that it once was a lively place," Jemma added. Noticing Skye parking outside a large abandoned factory, May commented, "We're here." As May parked her SUV next to the one Skye was driving, everyone got out of the two vehicles, and looked at the large factory in front of them. "Well well well, if it ain't the old Pym Tech factory," Fury commented as he recognized the place. "Wait, you know this place?" Skye questioned Nick. "Oh yeah," Fury replied, "After Dr. Pym left the J.I.A., he started his own company, Pym Tech. What you see here was the company's main factory. But I guess ever since the company was sold, the new management didn't feel the need for this place to stay open." "Wow... kinda depressing," Hiro commented, "Let's go in. Dr. Pym should be here soon." "Watch your step everyone," Baymax told the others as they entered the factory. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Annapolis, Maryland, U.S.A. - Cid's Warehouse~ "I'm back!" Cid said after returning from his bathroom break, "Did I miss anything?" "Nope," Nick replied, "In fact, halftime's almost over. Perfect timing." "That's good to hear," Cid said as he relaxed and watched as the game resumed. Approaching Cid, BB-8 electronically beeped, asking if Cid wanted anything else to drink. "Nah, I'm good, BB-8," Cid responded, "I think I've had 'nuff already." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Prince Demande's Ship - Dining Area~ After finishing his dessert, King Candy/Turbo said, "Well, I'm stuffed. Don't know 'bout you guys, but I think I'm gonna go take a very long nap in my cabin." "Good night," Demande responded as Candy/Turbo got up and left. And as Demande finished his dessert, he noticed the moon in the sky glowing red (while in a phase between half-moon and full moon) outside the window, telling the others, "Look at the moon. Amazing, isn't it?" "Wow, you're right, Demande," Hans replied as he noticed, "It's rare for the moon to be glowing red like this." "Elsa, do you want to get a closer look?" Saphir asked as he got up. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ~Hino Family Shrine~ "That's great to hear!" Grandpa Hino replied to his granddaughter. "Piplup," Chad concurred. "Well, be sure to get yourself ready. We'll be taking the bus to the Imperial Palace," Grandpa added. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Moon Palace~ "So you need me to go there while they're having that concert?" Goldar asked Thrax. "Yes," Thrax replied, "But don't act until you get the signal." "Signal? What signal?" Goldar questioned. "Don't worry about it, Goldar. Once you get it, you'll know for sure," Thrax replied. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Alleyway~ "Z?" Hiccup wondered out loud, "Oh, you mean Zordon. These Lockseeds you have, you two aren't the only ones with them." Taking out his Lockseed, Hiccup showed it to Mario and Luigi, saying, "If you're wondering what these things are for, it's best if I take you guys to Zordon first." Placing his hands on the shoulders of Mario and Luigi, Hiccup teleported himself and the brothers away from the area. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Command Center~ As Hiccup teleported to the Command Center with Mario and Luigi, Alpha cried, "Aye-yi-yi! I thought you were only going to get one other person, Hiccup." "Yeah, well, there was a bit of a miscalculation, Alpha. Turns out Mario AND his brother, Luigi, both have Lockseeds," Hiccup replied as he pet Toothless, "Mario, Luigi... welcome to the Command Center. That's Navi, and that there is Alpha 5." "Greetings," Alpha greeted Mario and Luigi. "And this is the big guy himself, Zordon!" Hiccup said, introducing Zordon to the brothers. "Welcome, Mario and Luigi," Zordon greeted the two brothers, "Hiccup has told me how the two of you are in possession of Lockseeds." "To kinda put this in simple terms guys, I'm sure you've seen those heroes with spandex like the Power Rangers and Riders. But where did they get their powers from? Well, while there are a ton out there, the technology they use to become these heroes can all be originally traced whether directly or indirectly to one source. And that source, is this guy right here, Zordon," Hiccup explained to the brothers, "Zordon is my leader, and leader of quite a few other warriors like the ones I mentioned. And if you were wondering, yes, I am one of those warriors." Taking out his Driver and Lockseed, Hiccup used them and transformed into his Rider form... "Pretty neat, huh?" Hiccup told Mario and Luigi. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Outside Tsukino Household~ As Rini neared home, she started to hear someone groaning nearby. "Huh? Who's there?" Rini wondered out loud, turning around, and finding Darien, struggling to walk while covering a gunshot wound in his left shoulder with his bloodied hand... Gasping at the sight of Darien injured, Rini called out to him, "Darien? What happened to you?" Looking at Rini, Darien tried to talk, replying with a weakened voice, "Ri... ni..." But before Darien could continue his sentence, he fainted, shocking Rini. "Darien? DARIEN?!" Rini cried as she rushed towards Darien, "Darien! Please wake up!" But as she noticed even more blood on Darien's left shoulder, Rini realized she needed help, crying, "HELP! SOMEBODY, HELP!" "Rini, what's going on?!" Sammy questioned as he and his father rushed out of their home... The two then gasped upon noticing Darien unconscious on the ground with blood on his shoulder. "Rini, what happened?" Kenji asked Rini. "I... I don't know," Rini replied, "He was just walking by when I saw him, and then..." "Okay... let's just get him inside. Help me out, Sammy," Kenji said. "Right," Sammy replied as he and Kenji carried Darien, taking him to their home. "Darien..." a worried Rini said to herself as she followed them. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Tsukino Household~ "That's good to hear," Ikuko replied to her daughter, "By the way, Serena... there was something I wanted to ta-" But before Ikuko could continue her sentence, she heard Rini outside crying for help. "Rini?" Ikuko wondered out loud. Kenji and Sammy then immediately rushed to the exit after hearing Rini's cry for help... "We'll check it out," Kenji said as he and Sammy went outside. "I hope everything's okay," Ikuko said to herself. After a few moments, Sammy and Kenji returned with Rini while carrying the injured Darien... "Oh my goodness!" Ikuko cried, gasping as she covered her mouth after noticing the blood from Darien's left shoulder, "What happened?!" "I don't know," Kenji replied, "But he's bleeding badly! I'm gonna get him into a room." "Right," Ikuko replied, "Serena, get me some towels, quick!" ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Island in the Pacific Ocean - Cave~ Arriving into the cave, Moana looked around until noticing a figure sitting on top of a boulder humming to himself... "Doo doo doo, what can I say except 'You're welcome!'" Maui quietly sang to himself. "Maui?" Moana called out to Maui, "Master Maui?" Noticing Moana arriving, Maui jumped down from the boulder, replying, "Yup, that's my name kid. Why do you ask?" Summoning her Keyblade, Moana said, "Because I want to become a Keyblade Master. I want to train under you, Master Maui, and pass the Mark of Mastery Exam." "Hmm, I see," Maui commented, "I appreciate you coming to me for your training. But... before I make a decision..." Maui summoned his own Keyblade before continuing, "How 'bout we have ourselves a small battle, to see if you're worthy to train." Grinning, Moana got in a battle stance, replying, "It would be my pleasure."
Now that the KINGDOM HEARTS Orchestra -World Tour- has begun, news has been coming in from their first concert in Tokyo. Inside a brochure available for purchase at the concert, a joint interview with series director, Tetsuya Nomura, and series composer, Yoko Shimomura, was included. Surprisingly, this is actually the first time the two are interviewed at the same time, and it's a pretty good read. The full interview can be read below: Source: KHInsider
Updated OP once again with information on pre-registration.
Updated OP with new info on a Western release. Also... Theater Mode!!!
It's supposed to be a continuation of the story, so I would assume it's like you said, just new story quests and other stuff (in addition to a new name). I'm pretty sure the old quests will remain.

~Island in the Pacific Ocean~ Arriving in an island on her raft, Moana got off, and started to walk around, saying, "This should be the place. But I wonder... where is Maui?" Noticing a cave ahead, Moana figured that could be where she finds Maui, and ran towards it. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~The Dimension of Mewni - Ludo's Hideout~ "YOU GUYS ARE USELESS!" Ludo berated his minions after they returned from the Earth dimension, failing yet again at capturing Star Butterfly's wand, "You're always screwing up my brilliant plans! After 32 times!" "Actually, Master Ludo, this is the 33rd time we failed," one of Ludo's minions corrected him. "Oh, why thank you for correcting me," Ludo thanked the minion. "No problemo!" the minion replied. "By the way... YOU'RE FIRED!" Ludo yelled at the minion that corrected him, "Now get out!" "Aww man..." the minion regretfully said as he walked away. "Now, I'm going to think through what we've been doing wrong all this time, and try to come up with a brand new plan," Ludo told his other minions, "But until we get Star Butterfly's wand, no milkshake privileges for any of you!" Ludo's minions groaned after hearing what their boss said, while Ludo walked to his office to start brainstorming. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Tsukino Household~ "Hello Serena," Ikuko greeted her daughter as she came into the kitchen, "Rini is with her friends, but she'll be back soon. Hope you enjoyed your time at the mall. Oh, and how was school today?" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Alleyway~ After returning Celestia to her home, Mewtwo teleported himself and Rini to an alleyway close to where the Tsukinos lived. "Well, guess I should be heading home now, Mewtwo," Rini said. "Same time tomorrow, I presume?" Mewtwo asked Rini. "Yup," Rini replied as she started walking away, "See ya!" As Rini left while followed by Luna-P, Mewtwo teleported away from the area. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Hino Family Shrine~ "Welcome back, Rei!" Grandpa Hino greeted his granddaughter once she returned. "Piplup!" Chad added, welcoming Rei back as well. "Hope ya found yourself a dress you like for the concert," Grandpa said. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ~Outside Nintendo High School~ As Hiccup was walking towards the location of Mario and Luigi, he noticed that not only did Mario have a Lockseed, but so did Luigi. 'Luigi too? Didn't expect that,' Hiccup thought to himself, 'Either way, we can't talk outside in front of everyone. Gotta get them to follow me somewhere else.' As Hiccup walked past the two brothers, he whispered to them, "Psst, guys! Follow me into the alleyway over there." Hiccup then continued walking until he reached an alleyway where no one would hear what he and the two brothers would discuss. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Prince Demande's Ship - Dining Area~ Nephrite bowed in response as Elsa thanked him, leaving with the rest of the servants once dessert had been served. "Well whaddya know, it's my favorite too!" Hans concurred with Anna after she commented on chocolate being her favorite. "Hehe, don't worry, Elsa," Saphir told Elsa after telling her sister to mind her manners, "Demande and I don't mind." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Annapolis, Maryland, U.S.A. - Cid's Warehouse~ As the game progressed into the halftime break (Cincinnati Bengals currently leading the Baltimore Ravens by 8 points), Cid commented, "If y'all 'scuse me for a bit, I need to have a trip to the men's room." Once Cid left to go to the bathroom, Nick asked BB-8, "Hey, little guy, you're good with calculating odds, right? What're the chances of the Ravens pull a surprise win here?" Hearing BB-8's electronic beeping response to him (and understanding it), Nick commented, "10 percent, huh? I really hope for a miracle here... I swear, losing Ray Lewis this season was the worst thing to happen to the Ravens."
