An anime TV series based on the hit video game franchise “Kingdom Hearts” has been ordered at Disney+ and Disney Channel.
Developed in partnership with video game creator Tetsuya Nomura and game developer Square Enix, “Kingdom Hearts” (the working title for the anime adaptation) “reimagines the iconic adventure with a brand-new story that will expand on the universe of ‘Kingdom Hearts’ while celebrating the characters that have captured the hearts of millions of fans around the world,” per Disney’s description for the project.
Thanks, The Onion, for the headline inspiration.
I’m both amazed this is being made, while also being astounded that this hadn’t been done yet.
I do wonder how accessible, if at all, this will be, or if it will just be an adaptation of the first game, before it got all weird?
