Kingdom Hearts is Officially Becoming an Anime Series

Fans of the iconic Kingdom Hearts franchise have something big to celebrate. Disney recently announced that an original anime series based on the games is officially in production. This marks the very first time the long running series will be adapted into an animated format, moving beyond the gaming consoles that started it all.

Creator Tetsuya Nomura is confirmed to be heavily involved in the project. His direct oversight is a great sign for fans who want to ensure the series stays true to the complex heart and soul of the games. While details on the plot remain under wraps, the involvement of the original creator suggests we can expect the same emotional storytelling we have come to love.

This adaptation is a major step for the franchise. Bringing Sora and his friends into a serialized anime format allows for a brand new way to tell this story. We are eager to see which worlds will be featured and how the animation will capture the magic of the original titles. Stay tuned for more updates as they come in.
