Is there a discussion thread for season 2?

Title says all. Is there a discussion thread to discuss about each episode when it gets released in this subreddit?

Blanks Points is the peak of Kingdom Hearts story

Going through the whole journey of the series, I can confidently say that Blank Points from BBS is the best cutscene in the series and where the series reached its peak emotional height.

The whole cutscene with the encounter between Ansem and Aqua, making you piece together how this is taking place after KH2, thus revealing how he survived; Aqua asking how the world of light is doing. It's such an interesting scenario that, just like the text says, you'd never think would happen as why would they meet?

And then as Ansem start talking about Sora and Dearly Beloved start playing, he deliver a wonderful speech that not only perfectly describe who Sora is in the grand scheme of things and why he is so important, but also set up very clear the future and how he will be the one to save everyone, culminating in every character we grew to love and are still awaiting their "birth their sleep" and Aqua crying hearing his name.

For me, this is truly the peak of Kingdom Hearts storytelling. A story that has plenty of issues, but when it wants, it knows how to touch your heart. And this cutscene is the one who does it most. How do I know this is the best one? Because I'm legit tearing up even as I'm writing this while remembering it. There are plenty of emotional cutscenes in the series, but this one is the most effective to me. And it's the cutscene that made definitive WHY the Days and BBS trio had to be saved eventually in future games and why the story couldn't end at KH2 really.
