| A {{nihongo|'''paopu fruit'''|パオプの実|paopu no mi}} is a star-shaped fruit native to [[Destiny Islands]]. It resembles the {{W|star fruit}}. According to legend, if two people share one, they will remain a part of each other's lives forever. | | ==Appearances== |
| | ===''Kingdom Hearts''=== |
| | In an early scene in ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'', [[Riku]] explains the fruit to [[Sora]] while on the bridge in [[Destiny Islands]]. Riku tosses him one and tells him a legend that says that if two people share the same Paopu Fruit, they will remain a part of each other's lives forever. Later on, while racing for the right to name the raft they have built, Riku raises the stakes. He says that the winner should get to share a Paopu fruit with [[Kairi]] (though if asked about it after the race, he will state he was merely joking). This intensifies the rivalry between the two, both to prove who is stronger and to gain Kairi's attention. [[Selphie]] thinks the legend is very romantic and wants to try it, sometime. Later, in the Secret Cave, Sora draws a picture of himself giving Kairi the fruit. This same drawing touches Kairi in the end credits of Kingdom Hearts (she is seen shedding a few tears) and draws another picture of herself giving the fruit to Sora. |

| ===''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]''=== | | In ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]'', the fake good luck charm [[Naminé]] gave to [[Sora]] in [[Castle Oblivion]], also resembles a Paopu fruit. This good luck charm returns to its true form when Sora begins to remember [[Kairi]]. |
| [[File:Following the Light 01 KHBBS.png|thumb|left|Terra picks up a paopu fruit washed ashore.]] | |
| [[Aqua]] mentions the fruit when handing out [[Wayfinder]]s, similar to [[Kairi]]'s, to [[Terra]] and [[Ventus]]. She explains the symbolic bond the fruit has, and how it applies to their good luck charms. [[Stitch|Experiment 626]] also shows Ventus a paopu fruit-like object that he made from space parts in [[Deep Space]], which was inspired by seeing Terra's Wayfinder when he visited the world.

|
| After saving the [[Lost Boys]] from a swarm of [[Unversed]] in [[Skull Rock]], Terra comes to Destiny Islands following a bright light. Upon seeing the beach, he looks down to see a paopu fruit has washed up on shore and notices the tree it fell from. He walks up to the tree and investigates it, remembering Aqua's words about the power the fruit has before meeting [[Riku]], whom he gives the power to one day wield a Keyblade of his own.
| | ===''Kingdom Hearts II''=== |
| | In ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', the Paopu Fruit is the keychain on [[Kairi's Keyblade]]. During the end credits, Sora discovers that Kairi had added onto the picture that he drew in the first game; the picture now depicts Sora and Kairi exchanging a Paopu fruit.[[Image:S320x240.png|thumb|The picture of [[Sora]] and [[Kairi]] sharing the paopu fruit.]] |
|
| |
|
| When Aqua arrives on Destiny Islands, also following a light, she finds the paopu tree and excitedly goes to see it. She then meets [[Sora]] and Riku while walking back along the bridge, almost deciding to bequeath the power of the Keyblade to Sora, but decides against it as she senses that Riku had already been given the power by Terra.

| |
| On Destiny Islands, Riku explains the fruit to Sora while on the bridge on Destiny Islands. Riku tosses him one and tells him a legend that says that if two people share the same paopu fruit, they will remain a part of each other's lives forever. Sora gets flustered and throws the paopu fruit in the water before proceeding to run after Riku. Later on, while racing for the right to name the raft they have built, Riku raises the stakes. He says that the winner should get to share a paopu fruit with Kairi (though if asked about it after the race, he will state he was merely joking). This intensifies the rivalry between the two, both to prove who is stronger and to gain Kairi's attention. [[Selphie]] thinks the legend is very romantic and wishes to try it sometime. She also calls paopu fruit "precious", and says that it should not be picked unless it is going to be shared with someone else.

|
| Later, in the Secret Cave, Sora draws a picture of himself giving Kairi the fruit. This same drawing touches Kairi after she returns to the Islands, causing her to cry while she draws another picture of herself giving the fruit to Sora.
| | ===''Trivia''=== |
| | | * When looking at the [[Oathkeeper]], when Sora wields it, the keychain is Kairi's [[Lucky Charm]] (aka: the Thalassa Shell charm). However, in Roxas' possession, the keychain is Naminé's Paopu Fruit from Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories. This could possibly be this way because both keychains represent the closest person to the Keyblade wielder (The seashell represents Sora's feelings for Kairi as the Papou fruit represents Naminé's feeling for Roxas). |
