Kingdom Hearts: Next Generations

Kingdom Hearts: Next Generations is the second anime series of the Kingdom Hearts anime. It is the sequel to the anime, Kingdom Hearts (2008 TV series), and is followed by Kingdom Hearts: Guardians of Light. It was focused on Sora and his friends' continued battle against the Darkness. The storyline is notable for having matured the characters and taking a darker tone, with increased narrative complexity and frequency of character deaths. All main, recurring, and supporting characters have vastly different appearances compared to the first season, as a new anime team and style was brought in order to give the show a sleeker look.

Plot
Sora, Donald and Goofy have been asleep for 3 years, regaining their memories.

Meanwhile, the mysterious disappearance of Tony Stark makes a 17-year old Theodore Detweiler put the Omnitrix back on, as well as forcing him to search and locate Tony.
