Kingdom Hearts is a beloved series but even the most ardent fans of the franchise will tell you that the story has become a bit convoluted over the years. Speaking in a new interview Tetsuya Nomura has said that he and Square Enix have hired a lore master to keep track of the story and make sure that none of it contradicts earlier story points and is simply an effort by the company to make the story more cohesive. Here’s what Mr. Nomura said:
“As the Kingdom Hearts series has continued, the number of characters has inevitably increased, and the story has become more complex,” Nomura said. “For example, with the newly announced anime series, the number of external people involved in the Kingdom Hearts series has increased, and explaining the settings and scenarios each time has become quite difficult.
“Fortunately, the staff working on the ‘χ series’ had someone who meticulously compiled and organized the settings of past Kingdom Hearts series in an easy-to-understand way, and he was also in charge of explaining the scenarios and settings to Disney. In fact, at the beginning of Kingdom Hearts IV’s development, Disney requested that he compile the materials, so he officially joined the Kingdom Hearts IV team as a proofreader.”
“He is well-liked because he explains things to Disney as clearly as possible, using diagrams and such. His role internally is to proofread the script,” he continued. “He checks to make sure there are no inconsistencies between the current script and past settings. He was especially suitable for this project because the χ series is deeply involved. Some people might mistakenly think he’s in charge of composition, but it’s actually ‘proofreading.’”
