A new scan of Kingdom Hearts 2FM+ has now appeared over the net featuring many pictures of the battle against Roxas, believed to have come from Famitsu. This scan mainly seems to focus on the reaction command, as well as the boss battle against Roxas! Scan Source: KHU Edit: Found out they originally came from 2ch, so credit towards them for being the one to take the photo of the magazine! ^^
Square-Enix has finally updated their gamebook website, featuring one of the latest announced Kingdom Hearts books Kingdom Hearts Character Report Vol 1. Although it reiterates most of the already known info, they announced what worlds this report will take up. The areas are as follows: • Disney Castle • Destiny Island • Twilight Town • Halloween Town • Atlantis • Monstro • Pride Land • Wonderland •100 Acre Woods Source: Square-Enix Game Books and FFKH Blog
Famitsu & Blitz Magazine - Kingdom Hearts 2007 Project Discussion Although we do not have the magazine yet, Nomura has had an interview about the new Kingdom Hearts project as well as Kingdom Hearts re:COM and Kingdom Hearts II FM+. Only small information has been released on the web so far, and that's that Nomura will announce the new Kingdom Hearts project in the "middle of 2007." Source: nekogagotoku blog
A new scan of KH2FM+ re:COM has now appeared over the net, sadly the issue of this magazine is unknown as this is a partial version of the new scan. This scan appears to show more of how card break will be used in Kingdom Hearts re:COM, using the Reversed Rebirth picture against Vexen, as an example. Card Break Scan Source: KH-2.net and skr_shape13 Blog. Edit: skr_shape13 Blog has managed to post the full controls to the re:COM demo. The Circle button is to attack. The Triangle Button is to stock cards The x button is to Jump The square button is to Dodge Roll The L button (L1 or L2) - Possibly to flip cards to the left. The R button (R1 or R2) - Is used, to unleash 3 cards stock techniques. As the other R button is possibly to flip cards to the right. This was also where you earned the Roxas Wristband. This is possibly the last bit of info out, since we already have everything on the Demo, the Trailers, and the other extra KH related thing there.
Just to think when we were completly finished with Jump Festa 2007, KH-2.net just throws more things out. Great job Tomo, especially since most of it's new too! Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix •An org. member is sitting on a chair while a knight is laying on the floor. They are talking to each other. Where they are appears to look like a basement (?). And then afterwards, we see a knight's helmet getting blown up and he turns around. Kingdom Hearts: Re:Chain of Memories • The X button serves as the jump button. • There's a mini map that resembles the one in KH2. • When the room card is selected, the number of heartless and the size of the room express it by three (?-stars?). • There seems to be Trinity. Not much detail on this yet. • There is also a gimmick card. (This one is stated before.) Xaldin's Note: I believe the "gimmick" card is the same as the "Stop" command, which is likely the Mickey Card, since it held a similar feature and was reported once. • The blog user felt that the cutscene in the Vexen boss battle hasn't changed much compared to CoM.

Ok, due to the major postage that happened, alot of news didn't manage to make the front page, I have decided to do a little Ordering Post to keep this very Organized, as now we are completly done with JF 2007 on the KH Segment here we go! Note to all, all underlined links are clickable Jump Festa News Kingdom Hearts Re:COM Trailer Script Kingdom Hearts II FM+ Trailer Script 5 New Scans and JF 2007 Info Kingdom Hearts Re:COM Demo Analysis Live Journal Speculations 1 and 2
Well I have no way to give you an introduction so here is what I'll say. - The demos were indeed only playable for 15 minutes, with wait lines going up to 60 minutes. -This time they did not give out an instruction booklet (Well that's odd, someone's gonna have to clerify me on that one) - There were only 2 chosen area demos. - One was playing Sora's side in Halloween Town which included the Oogie Boogie Boss Battle. - The other was playing Riku's side against Vexen! Gameplay The Stock button apparently wasn't the L and R, so it didn't feel like the GBA version there, however the gameplay is similar to the GBA version, and you still have to repeatedly press L and R, just like the GBA version to them. ( I believe they're saying L and R both have seperate commands now) L is used to stock the cards, as R is used to unleash the techniques of the stocked cards, after you earned 3 pieces. Sora's side There was no Cutscenes at all for this, however once you advanced 2 rooms, you would automatically be brought into the Oogie Boogie boss battle. The cards you have set for you are "Cloud, Jack, Heal, Gravity, Fire, Blizzard, and attack cards" The method to defeat Oogie Boogie is very similar to that of the GBA version. Riku's Side This time there was a cutscene, and a boss battle against Vexen. There were little to no changes, except that the battle takes place on the 10th floor this time. Once you defeat Vexen, a cutscene appears. Source: FFKHBlog

The KH2ch board, has managed to post more scans about Kingdom hearts II, featuring clearer image, still not a full scan sadly. However until then we'll keep happy with these! Scan 1 Scan 2 Scan 3 Scan 4 Scan 5 - THere is new information that have appeared over the net, There is a talk in a white room between Saix, Xehanort, and someone else. - There is an extra Axel scene, and right after that scene, another scene showing the Roxas battle appears. - In a more interesting note, there is talk about the mysterious male in the secret ending, by the Organization, they consider him as a "Friend" - (Completely unsure if this is true) THere is a scene of the mysterious male from the Secret Ending, lying in the basement, and is soon given Armored Restraints! - In the COM Demo you can either do Halloween Town, Boss battle against Oogie Boogie, and have a chance to play as Riku when fighitng against Vexen. - You'll be fighting Marluxia in KH2FM!? (UNsure for now) and a reaction command will be brought out when he throws his sickle at you, the reaction command causes Sora to somehow throw the sickle back penetrating Marluxia's body. The scan where Sora vs Roxas is in the Jump Festa, the move where Roxas is in the air, he uses both of his keyblades to release a terrible power all the lightning being shot down, is just a discharge of the true attack he is preparing.
