Upon realizing her misdeeds, Naminé becomes guilt-ridden and eventually rebels against her captors to help Sora and his friends. She displays genuine remorse for what she has done to Sora and co., and willingly puts herself in harm's way to protect Sora from Larxene. Her determination and desire to take responsibility for her actions also led her to defy Marluxia's order to destroy Sora's heart, despite of being threatened by the former.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories]]''''', '''Naminé:''' "No. Sora forgave me even though I deceived him. I could never break his heart! I don't care what you do to me.

By the end of ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'', Naminé has proven herself to be a kind, compassionate, and driven individual. By ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Naminé has matured greatly, and now acts independently without hesitation. She demonstrates her willingness in assisting Roxas in spite of DiZ's orders, and rescues Kairi when she is captured by Organization XIII.

Unlike [[Roxas]], Naminé had spent the majority of her life in a solitary manner. The only social contact she had was with her captors, [[Organization XIII|the Organization]], along with her collaborators in restoring Sora's memory: [[DiZ]] and [[Riku]]. As a result, Naminé did not forge any strong bonds with people and was quite resigned to her fate as simply being a part of Kairi. When she met Sora in [[The Final World]], she said it was only Roxas that everyone missed; she considered herself to be no-one important. However, Sora encourages her to live as her own person; this is even further backed up by the [[Riku Replica]], who gave up the chance to have a new body for the sake of leaving a blank [[replica]] for Naminé's heart.
