When Sora and Riku arrived at [[Castle Oblivion]] during their search for a way home, members of [[Organization XIII]] began their plans to manipulate them as they journey through the castle.

In order to gain control Sora, [[Marluxia]] orders Naminé to use her powers to strip Sora's memories of Kairi and replace them with her instead. However, Naminé knew she could never truly replace Kairi in Sora's heart, and saw herself as merely Kairi's shadow. Kairi's image shows up at Destiny Islands when Sora remembers that the one he holds close to his heart is Kairi, not Naminé. When Sora is about to go to sleep, Naminé tells him that if he remembers "the one most important to him" his memories will restore faster, so Sora looks deep into his heart and finds Kairi.

While traveling through the castle, Riku desperately tried to control the darkness within him, but [[Zexion]], wanting Riku to succumb it, torments Riku with an illusion of Kairi, as well as with illusions of Tidus, Selphie, Wakka, and Sora. However, Naminé takes Kairi's form to help Riku control the light and darkness in his heart before the final face-off with the devious Nobody.<!--write this in-universe and in chronological order, make it into a cohesive story-->

As a child in ''Kingdom Heart Birth by Sleep'', she is shown to have some affection for flowers, as she appears with flowers in her hand and is picking more during the final credits. But she won't hesitate to give them away in gratitude, like giving them to Aqua as thanks for saving her from the Unversed. Also, her Keyblade, Destiny's Embrace, has a floral design.

In ''Kingdom Hearts'', she is seen with a rather playful, spunky side. For example, if Sora wins the race, she calls him "Captain Sora." She can also make comments about situations for the sake of teasing. In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', however, she becomes more mature and is saddened by Sora's absence. She is not as brash and bold as she was in the first game, but is still sociable, as she quickly befriends Hayner, Pence, and Olette in Twilight Town before being kidnapped by Axel.

Kairi appears to be wary of anyone who has wronged her in the past, such as her former kidnapper, Axel; when she heard Lea would be training with her to master a Keyblade, she became quite hesitant at the prospect. However, she soon overcame this thanks to Mickey and Riku telling her that Lea had helped save Sora.

Kairi shows a lot of concern for her friends. This can be seen as early in Kingdom Hearts where she protects Sora as a Heartless with her body from a horde of Shadows or as late Kingdom Hearts 3 where she moves to protect Axel with her body before falling to the Demon Storm. As of DDD, she gets called into the battle against Xehanort with her main motivation behind it being desire to fight alongside her friends. Though she was shown fighting alongside Sora, Donald, Goofy, and Riku against Shadows in Kingdom Hearts 2 in The World That Never Was, she was not capable of summoning her Keyblade until Kingdom Hearts 3.

Kairi is not fond of mushrooms, wondering why she and her friends should even take them on the raft.{{?}}<!--talk to Kairi on the raft multiple times in KH1-->
While sharing a deep friendship with Sora and Riku, Kairi seems to be particularly important to Sora, and vice versa. Kairi's feelings for Sora have been hinted at several times. She jokes about her and Sora taking the raft, just the two of them. She embraces Sora's Heartless as the other Shadows jump on them. She gives him her Wayfinder in hopes it will bring him back to her. The face sketch on said Wayfinder resembles Sora. She sheds a tear when she sees that Sora added a paopu fruit to their drawings of each other they did as kids, and even adds another. Kairi was the only person on the Islands to have any recollection of Sora, and felt guilty that she couldn't remember his voice, face, or even his name. When Kairi tells the Twilight Trio about how she was looking for Sora, Olette says that it was "a romantic story". When Saïx asks her if she wanted to see Sora, she answers "I do, more than anything." After reuniting with Sora, she hugs him, confirming it's really him, while Donald and Goofy looked on as if they were intruding. When Sora tells her that he has to leave again, she just smiles and, once again, gives him her Wayfinder.


==Romantic Interest in Sora==
While training with Lea, she states while writing a letter to Sora that she likes to talk with him even if its on paper. Her feelings for Sora were confirmed the day before their final battle. While Sora and Kairi are sitting on the paopu fruit tree, she hands him a paopu fruit. She states that she wants to be a part of Sora's life no matter what. After both of them promise to keep each other safe, they share a paopu fruit together. When Sora finds himself near death in Limbo, it was revealed by Naminé that Kairi was the person keeping him from completely fading away into the afterlife. When Sora finds her, they happily join hands. Kairi states that she believed that he wouldn't give up. When Sora states he feels strong with her, she looks away and holds his hand to proceed with their final battle. When everyone is on Destiny Islands having fun, Kairi is away from the group and sits on the Paopu fruit tree with Sora holding his hand. Kairi smiles while looking at him, and sheds a tear when Sora fades away and continues to stay there after he is gone.
While sharing a deep friendship with Sora and Riku, Kairi is rather attached to Sora, This is possibly due to him being a similar age to her.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Ultimania]]''''', '''Interviewer:''' "By the way, Uchida, how did you feel about Sora and Riku when you performed?
" / '''Uchida:''' "I had faint romantic feelings for Sora... well, actually, I can't really say I went that far but somewhere along those lines. I think Kairi is the closest to Sora and gets along with him the best, while for Riku, she feels like he's somebody she can rely on because he's older than her" [https://www.khinsider.com/news/BBS-Ultimania-20-Mysteries-Solved-2546 Translation via Lissar].</ref> But nevertheless, Kairi's feelings for Sora have been hinted at several times throughout the series.  


''In Kingdom hearts'' She embraces Sora's Heartless as the other Shadows jump on them, returning him to normal and she gives him her Wayfinder in hopes it will bring him back to her. The face sketch on said Wayfinder resembles Sora. She sheds a tear when she sees that Sora added a paopu fruit to their drawings of each other they did as kids. In later titles, Kairi was one of the few to have any recollection of Sora, and felt guilty that she couldn't remember his voice, face, or even his name. When Kairi tells the Twilight Trio about how she was looking for Sora, Olette says that it was "a romantic story". When Saïx asks her if she wanted to see Sora, she answers "I do, more than anything." After reuniting with Sora, she hugs him, confirming it's really him.

Her feelings for Sora were confirmed in Kingdom Hearts 3. While training with Lea, she states while writing a letter to Sora that she likes to talk with him even if its on paper, but declines his offer to send it to Sora. While Sora and Kairi are sitting on the paopu fruit tree, she hands him a paopu fruit, in an effort to prevent them from being separated like they have been before. She states that she wants to be a part of Sora's life no matter what and after both of them promise to keep each other safe, they share a paopu fruit together.
 
When Sora finds himself near death in Limbo, it was revealed by Naminé that Kairi was the person keeping him from completely fading away into the afterlife. When Sora finds her, they join hands. Kairi states that she believed that he wouldn't give up. When Sora states he feels strong with her (although in the jpn translation, He actually says that Kairi is strong), she looks away and holds his hand as they return to the light, where everyone else is. When everyone is on Destiny Islands having fun, Kairi is away from the group and sits on the Paopu fruit tree with Sora holding his hand. Kairi smiles while looking at him, and sheds a tear when Sora fades away and continues to stay there after he is gone.
