    I know now, without a doubt, that Kingdom Hearts is plaid!

    Because chess.


    No seriously, it’s a motif that he seems to have come up with around 1.5, going by the cover. Nomura isn’t exactly subtle with his symbolism.

    That’s the subtle part. It’s red so that maybe chess doesn’t immediately come to mind

    Those lumberjacks and their chess. When will they make a move and get back to chopping wood already?

    Do you think he sits reclined in his chair with his hands on the back of his head and says to himself "Red! By jove, Nomura! You've done it again!"?
