This article is about the element.
You may be looking for the spell.

Water (水/ウォータ Mizu/Wōta?) is an element that appears in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance, Kingdom Hearts III, and Kingdom Hearts Dark Road. The Water element is associated with the Damage Drain and Submerge status effects.

In other games, attacks involving Water usually deal Blizzard-type damage, like Dumbo's Splash or Demyx's attacks in Kingdom Hearts II.

Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days[edit]

In Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, the Water element can only be used by enemies. It inflicts the Damage Drain status effect, which party members can resist.
