A '''Paopu Fruit''' is a star-shaped fruit native to [[Destiny Islands]]. It resembles the [[wikipedia:star fruit|star fruit]]. According to legend, "If two people share one, their destinies become intertwined. They'll remain a part of each other's lives no matter what." This gives the fruit great symbolic meaning. Although this fruit has great meaning, it remains unknown whether anyone has shared one in the ''Kingdom Hearts'' series.

[[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.
Aqua mentions them when handing [[Lucky Charm]]s similar to Kairi's to Terra and Ventus. She says that the skin of Paopu Fruits were used in the construction of similar charms. Experiment 626 also shows Ventus a paopu fruit-object that he made from space parts in [[Deep Space]].

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''===
In an early scene in ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'', [[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. 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'', causing her to cry while she draws another picture of herself giving the fruit to Sora.


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.

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.

===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
[[File:The Outside World 02 KH.png|thumb|right|Sora holds a paopu fruit.]]
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', the Paopu Fruit is the [[Keychain]] on [[Destiny Place]]. 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, in a sequence which closely resembles Kairi's discovery of their picture in the ending of ''[[Kingdom Hearts  (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]''.
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.

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.

Unaware of what the fruit is, Phil decides to eat it; he describes it as salty, but sweet, and notes that he would like to share some of it with Hercules. {{Storylink|Olympus Coliseum -Side Episode-}}
