Kingdom Hearts II
In Kingdom Hearts II, Cure magic is much more powerful and nearly always fully heals its target as well as allies within the proximity of the deployment.

Trivia
- Marluxia, Number XI of Organization XIII, wields the element of flower, which appears to be the inverse of the Cure spell, as it induces a gradual death as opposed to healing, evidenced by his boss fights.
- During the Heartless Invasion of Hollow Bastion, Aerith is shown using Curaga off-screen to heal an exhausted Yuffie.
- When Donald uses Cure on Sora in Chain of Memories, it seems to regenerate his strength as well.
