Check the home page, there is information on all the games.

I considered translating the pages on the other games, but since they both have 2008 releases, I figured I'd hold off and just translate when new information on them becomes available. BbS on the other hand is the most heavily discussed, so translating this article made sense.

Thanks a lot for doing this, it's good to be able to read some scan. It really is impressive, the way you do them it's like if they were already written in english.

Thank you so much, bittermeat. This is awesome

ah thank you so much!
This helped me realize something, the keyblade master that Aqua, Ven, and Terra train and fight under is a new character! its not mickey mouse! WOOT i knew i wasn't crazy when i thought this earlier.

That seriously made my previous theory on the new enemies make more sense.

So VAT's master is new?! You sure you translated that right? 'Cause I remember reading that same interview on another site and that question was:

Interviewer: Is the master who taught the three from the current series?
Tetsuya Nomura: I can't say.

On that one, Nomura refused to say if the master was a new character.

Are you referring to this interview? When I was going to translate the article, I figured I could use Xaldin's version. But after reviewing it, it was incredibly inaccurate, I don't doubt he was in a rush to translate it, so I don't blame him. He mistranslated one of the developer's names, there were questions in his version that didn't appear in the interview, and like the example you pulled, wrong replies.

I re-translated it, taking time and questioning everything. I'm pleased with the result, and prefer this translation over the old one.
