As a Princess of Heart, Kairi's heart holds the power to open the [[Final Keyhole]] that leads to [[Kingdom Hearts]] when she is joined by the six other princesses. Should her heart be lost, her body will remain in a dormant state until it returns. Due to having a heart of pure light, when her heart was removed from Sora's body, she gave birth to the special [[Nobody]], [[Naminé]]. | |||
*She has the power to hold back darkness using the light stored in her heart, a power which she and the other princesses can utilize alone. | *She has the power to hold back darkness using the light stored in her heart, a power which she and the other princesses can utilize alone. | ||

Initially, Kairi's abilities are rather limited in combat, and she cannot do much in danger. Oftentimes, she must rely on Sora or Riku to come to her aid, and as such, is easily captured, like when Axel merely grabbed Kairi by the wrist and dragged her away with him without much effort. | Initially, Kairi's abilities are rather limited in combat, and she cannot do much in danger.

Her potential as a Keyblade wielder is recognized by Yen Sid, who has Riku bring her to him to begin her own Keyblade training. | ||
After completing her training with [[Lea]], Kairi is shown to be a fairly competent fighter despite her relative inexperience. She is able to go toe-to-toe with much more experienced and powerful foes such as Xion and Xemnas, even dispersing the latter's Ethereal Blades and forcing him on the defensive until he is forced to use Nothingness to stop her. Despite this, she does not have the reaction speed that other experienced wielders have, and as such, she is nearly struck down by Terra-Xehanort, and is kidnapped by Xemnas. | After completing her training with [[Lea]], Kairi is shown to be a fairly competent fighter despite her relative inexperience.

In battle, Kairi is effective at gap closing and keeping her enemies in the air. She can toss her Keyblade in a [[Strike Raid]]-esque manner to close gaps between her and her opponent, and can quickly chain these. She can perform two different finishers, one that involves spinning her Keyblade around her, and other that has her spin in a corkscrew-like manner | In battle, Kairi is effective at gap closing and keeping her enemies in the air.

She can perform two different finishers, one that involves spinning her Keyblade around her, and other that has her spin in a corkscrew-like manner. Her combos chain easily, and she can deal heavy damage in a short amount of time. | ||

Kairi is fairly skilled in magic, and has access to all Magic spells at their highest levels. As a party member, she has an ability named [[Flower Shot]], which shoots a ball of light at a target. As a playable character, this is translated into her [[Shotlock]], [[Heart of a Princess]], which rains balls of light down on foes.

As a party member, she has an ability named [[Flower Shot]], which shoots a ball of light at a target. As a playable character, this is translated into her [[Shotlock]], [[Heart of a Princess]], which rains balls of light down on foes. She has access to several movement abilities, such as [[Doubleflight]], [[Slide]], and [[Air Slide]]. Her main method of defending is using a light-based [[barrier]], and she has access to a counterattack called [[Starcracker]]. Despite her wide range of abilities, she seems to hold some degree of doubt in her abilities, and her battle quotes consist of her psyching herself up by saying things like "I'll try!" or "Please work!" | ||
