For all intents and purposes- he is right. Needless to say, no one needs to go google searching unless they're in for a surprise.

I was recently introduced to the other Unbirth. So, thanks KH. Promoting shock images.

Oh, no, I definitely believed him.

Don't even remind me of the time when I searched for images of "beds" for art class...

*sigh* Now the name might actually be a problem.

The ironic thing is I couldn't tell if I was more disgusted than just overall amused at the pictures.

I was giggling simply at the concept of it- all the while with a tad hint of nausea.

The judge doesn't need to know that.
But it's rather disturbing that people actually associated their theories about the new enemy with... that.

MX is a woman.

He unbirths Terra to create the Xehanort we know.

Duh.

You should be blaming SE.

They started it all.

Watch the English translators call them "Ambers". Wactch them.

..Don't actually sue them though.

We already knew that.

We may want to change topic, though. This could turn into major spam.

Well, it's never too late for my two cents, right?

The case with a word like 死神 (shinigami) is that its a part of the natural Japanese vocabulary, meaning it originated in Japan, therefore we can only use English words to describe it like 'soul reaper' or 'god of death'.

In the case of a word like アンバース (unbirths), it's written in an alphabet specified for foreign words, therefore it has a singular meaning shared in both Japanese and English (or other languages sometimes too). Notice something like the unbirths can't be written in kanji, just like heartless and nobodies don't use kanji to represent them. For example, this is how they appear in Japanese:

ハートレス = heartless
ノーバディ = nobody
アンバース = unbirths

So frankly, there is no other way of saying unbirths other than to say unbirths. Except like Noo Monkey mentioned, unbirths has the same katakana reading as ambers. So until someone official points out how it's suppose to be understood, it's up to us to guess. Personally I think unbirths make more sense in the context of Kingdom Hearts, so I stick by it.

Doesn't mean they might change it based on localization for America. Like others pointed out, unbirths leaves an unsavory connotation about unborn babies, so to censor our youth they might change it. Who knows, really. Unborns/deborns have the same connotations, therefore if they change things I doubt they'll go down that route.

[qupte=Newb]also unbirth could have been a bit too accurate and could have a simpler translation
Yeah, because "Un-born" is soooo much different than "Unbirth".
No, it was written in Katakana, which means it's GOING to be Unbirths.
