In every game but ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', the player character's HP Gauge will increase in length when their maximum HP increases, whether upon gaining a level or receiving a bonus. In ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'', once the HP Gauge reaches beyond the length corresponding to 280 HP, the green HP bar is overlaid by a second, blue bar, which will be depleted before the green bar when damage is taken. In ''Kingdom Hearts'', a party member's HP gauge increases in length when maximum HP increases, but in subsequent games it does not. | In every game but ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', the player character's HP Gauge will increase in length when their maximum HP increases, whether upon gaining a level or receiving a bonus.

Enemy HP gauges are displayed on-screen when the [[Scan]] ability is equipped, except in ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'', where they are displayed automatically. In ''Kingdom Hearts'', enemy HP gauges appear at the top-left of the screen; in subsequent games, they appear at the top-right. In ''Kingdom Hearts'' and ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'', enemy HP Gauges that extend beyond a single bar have differently-colored bars (green->yellow->orange->red->purple in ''Kingdom Hearts'', and green->blue->yellow->red in ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'') layered on top of each other that must be depleted one at a time. Each full bar represents 300 HP for ''Kingdom Hearts'' enemies, and 560 HP in ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories''. Interestingly, if an enemy in ''Kingdom Hearts'' had more health than could be displayed in five bars (beyond 1500 HP) such as {{ns|Game|Sephiroth}}, it would appear as if no damage was being dealt, until the amount of remaining health fell to within range of gauge. Starting with the release of ''Kingdom Hearts II'', enemy HP gauges that extend beyond one bar have green, rectangular blocks beneath the current HP bar, each one representing a full HP bar yet to be depleted, with each full bar representing 200 HP in most games. | Enemy HP gauges are displayed on-screen when the [[Scan]] ability is equipped, except in ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'', where they are displayed automatically.
