Hope Ariel returns for Kingdom Hearts III. She deserves it after being neglected since Kingdom Hearts II, not to mention she still needs to meet up with Sora as promised. And besides, considering the character designs for Kingdom Hearts III actually resemble their film appearances, that would be a golden opportunity to get an XPS render of her. Same goes for Melody if they decide to include her. And considering the last time she appeared was in what was essentially a Karaoke mode, she deserves a LOT better (especially after being given a similar characterization to Knuckles the Echidna in that game, which was a real low point for her.).

And frankly, on that note I also hope we also have not only Ursula return, but also her disguise of Vanessa, and this time, actually HAVE the latter be fought as a boss instead of merely taken down in a cutscene without there even being a wedding at all (and in fact, I actually have some ideas for a boss fight, namely something akin to the fights against Mr. Freeze in the Arkham games, or even the first two fights against Albert Wesker in Resident Evil 5, and maybe also have Eric act as a boss while he's brainwashed, thus forcing you to avoid directly hitting Vanessa.). And before anyone thinks that they can't do that because Ariel became human in the ending of Kingdom Hearts II, bear in mind that they brought back Ursula for Dream Drop Distance despite her death (not to mention Kingdom Hearts II itself had Ursula return from the dead as well), and besides which, considering that Gaston is heavily implied to be appearing in Kingdom Hearts III thanks to Chi and developer comments indicating that several elements in that game will foreshadow their appearance in III, even when the Beast was shown to have restored his human form in II's credits, it shouldn't be too much of a problem to bring her back there. Besides, we need some actual XPS renders for Vanessa (the ones in game don't really cut it, since she barely has... well, bones to make much use of her for her Kingdom Hearts II self as it is without serious modifications).
