== 1st Phase/Dark Seeker Saga ==
Do we know for sure the Dark Seeker Saga is the "1st Phase"? It seems to me like the χ games aren't part of the Dark Seeker Saga (since they don't involve Xehanort), but also not the 2nd Phase. And Re Mind seems to fit in both. So are we sure that Dark Seeker Saga is the 1st Phase, or is it possible Phases and Sagas are different things? {{User:TheSilentHero/Sig}} 17:42, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
:There is a no official comment on the phases available yet but at least to me it seems like they are more like production phases than self-contained story entries in a sense of a saga. I think the pre-release or post-release interviews for Melody of Memory might clarify the situation. As it is even the distinction between the Dark Seeker Saga and [https://twitter.com/kh_dr_na/status/1275111307008716802 χ series] is very muddy to begin with. --{{User:ShardofTruth/Sig}} 19:59, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
::I'd like to think it is more of the production phases like Shard suggested. Also, in true Nomura fashion, something may be labeled as one category/"thing" at some point- perhaps during MoM?- but then be re-labeled as something else further down the series. >_< {{User:Xion4ever/Sig}} 23:46, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
:::I mean, why would you call the 2nd phase the '2nd phase', if there wasn't a 1st phase to begin? Thats standard conventional grouping. But then again this is KH, where the points don't matter. Union X for sure is part of Dark Seeker, as the 2020 trailer show the key art along with all the key art as part of the DSS. ReMind is definitely separate from DSS, as all official material stated DSS ended with KH3, while ReMind is a new alternative story that takes places, despite being apart of KH3. {{User:UnknownChaser/Sig}} 03:52, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
::::I'm not saying there isn't a 1st phase, just that the term may not be interchangeable with Dark Seeker Saga. According to Nomura, the DSS is about the battle against Xehanort. Re Mind still involves battling Xehanort, and the χ games don't. {{User:TheSilentHero/Sig}} 09:04, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
==2nd Phase Rename==
In the trailer for the 20th anniversary celebration they referred to the next step as the "Lost Masters Arc" so would it be cool to change the name? Also, where would you put Kingdom Hearts Missing-Link? It's going to connect to Kingdom Hearts χ [chi], Kingdom Hearts Union χ [Cross], and Kingdom Hearts χ Dark Road, and likely the Lost Masters Arc going forward. {{[[User:Levi657|Levi657]] ([[User talk:Levi657|talk]]) 12:26, 10 April 2022 (UTC)}}
::I'll second this. "2nd Phase" was always meant to be a temp name anyway. --[[User:Samoa Joe|Samoa Joe]] ([[User talk:Samoa Joe|talk]]) 12:51, 10 April 2022 (UTC)
== Series/Arc confirmation ==
In a Famitsu interview, Nomura says the following about Missing-Link: The KH series consists of the Dark Seeker Saga up to KH3, the Lost Master Arc starting from KH4, and the χ series (KHX, KHUX, KHDR). But Missing Link fills in a blank period and is a bridge-like work. So that confirms Missing Link isn't part of the x series, or any saga/arc for that matter. Also, since Missing Link isn't part of any saga/arc, maybe Re Mind and MoM can also be considered bridge games between Dark Seeker and Lost Master? {{User:TheSilentHero/Sig}} 15:27, 14 April 2022 (UTC)
:Seems like it. Annoying that he seemingly goes out of his way to clarify things yet doesn’t. Also weird how ML is a bridge between two X games but aren’t part of the actual X series. But I agree, ML, ReMind, and MoM is outside of any saga/series/arc then. - [[User:JTD95|JTD95]] ([[User talk:JTD95|talk]]) 16:05, 14 April 2022 (UTC)
::You know, nonsense like that is why I'm thinking maybe the template should be like the nav portal: Rather than split the entries up into "series", which is starting to make very little sense and is just confusing to newcomers looking at the navigation, it should just be order of release. The game entries themselves can clarify what series they're a part of, if any, properly link to them in the articles themselves. --[[User:Samoa Joe|Samoa Joe]] ([[User talk:Samoa Joe|talk]]) 01:42, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
:::Maybe that would be better, yes. {{User:TheSilentHero/Sig}} 07:07, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
::::Oh yeah. [[https://i.imgur.com/nK9auXa.png Much better]]. Everyone else agree? --[[User:Samoa Joe|Samoa Joe]] ([[User talk:Samoa Joe|talk]]) 20:10, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
:::::Yeah that looks a lot better. - {{User:JTD95/Signature}} 20:49, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
