Favorite Thing About Kairi?

What's your favorite thing involving Kairi?

She stands up for herself, and isn't willing to just sit there, waiting to be rescued.

Her desire to help Sora and Riku, and how, like Wanta just said, she's not satisfied with waiting around to be rescued. As soon as she gets her hands on a Keyblade she leaps into the fray and starts attacking Heartless! And I like how in KH2 she came to realize how getting kidnapped meant the boys would be forced to risk their lives for her, and that the only solution to the problem was to learn how to defend herself. I'm hoping she does learn more self-defense by KH3.

Basically, while many might argue that she's useless, I give her points for having ambition and wanting to solve her own problems rather than sitting around and angsting while dreaming about her knights in shining armor.

You said it better than me...

EDIT: I swear I made a signature. Where is it?

She is the complete opposite of what kairi haters consider her to be. Her hair is nice, stands up, doesnt willingly get taken away, cares for her friends, you name it.

Yeah, I tend to agree with you there Absent Axel.

I also love her themes; they're very pretty!

Easily some of the most beautiful music in Kingdom Hearts, and that's saying something.

She's brave and passionate, willing to go to any lengths for her friends. I mean, look; she was okay with being attacked by heartless, and why? To help Sora. =)
True, she's not as strong as Sora or Riku. But she also didn't have the training and experience that they had. Kudos for trying, Kairi! ^_^
And I agree, her theme song is beautiful. <3

Good point! ^_^

And when you think about it, Sora and Riku didn't have much training either. People talk about their play-fights on Destiny Islands, but that's not the sort of experience that makes you a seasoned warrior. If anything, any training that Kairi gets is going to be much more useful because Sora and Riku will probably be teaching her, and they're experts by now!

That is true, but at least they had the basics of combat down. XD They did have to learn more as they fought their way through worlds, but they had the concept of fighting down enough to survive. Otherwise, I think both of them would have been in deep doo-doo the night darkness swallowed the islands. Kairi wasn't able to physically share the same experiences, so she wasn't able to fight properly, like Sora and Riku were. I just admired that, despite all that, despite that she lacked the fighting capabilities she needed, she was still willing to try and fight because she wanted to help her friends.
I agree, she probably will gain quite a bit of useful training. ^_^ I'd like to see her fight, perhaps as a mage. Show everyone that she does have the ability to protect herself and others.
