Template:InfoCharacter Yuffie Kisaragi is a character from Final Fantasy VII who makes an appearance in all Kingdom Hearts games. She travels with Leon, whom she mostly refered to by his real name sometimes to his annoyance. She ocassionly refers to herself as the "Great Ninja Yuffie", weilding a large wind-blade shuriken as her weapon.
She is hyperactive but tires out easily because of it. She always tries to do her best but she isn't that strong a fighter.
Journal Entry
Kingdom Hearts
A female ninja who escaped to Traverse Town when her home world was taken by the Heartless. She stays strong and cheerful in any situation. She works with Leon and Aerith to unravel the secret of the "key".
"Final Fantasy VIII"
Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories
A girl whose cheerful personality belies her painful memories. When she was still young, the Heartless robbed her of her home.
Never one to sweat the small stuff, Yuffie seems unfazed by her fuddled memory.
Kingdom Hearts II
One member of the town's Restoration Committee, a spirited girl who actively does her part to keep tabs on the town.
Yuffie met Sora when she was living away from her hometown. Thanks to his help last time, the Heartless were ousted and she got to come home - so she's very grateful to him.
Story
Kingdom Hearts
Sora's first meeting with Yuffie is in Traverse Town, where Sora accidentally mistakes her for Kairi. Yuffie doesn't have that much of a role in the game, but she, along with Leon, was the one who told Sora about the keyblade while in the hotel of Traverse Town.
In the fight cups at Olympus Coliseum, Yuffie is one of the bosses to defeat in order to win a cup. In that respect, she uses magic and her shuriken against Sora, Donald and Goofy.
Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories
Modeled after the real Yuffie based on Sora's memories. She doesn't remember Sora, but Sora's heart makes her remember, which she classes as strange yet convenient.
Kingdom Hearts II
Yuffie features more in this game than the previous one. She is the first person to meet Sora as they enter Hollow Bastion and leads them to Merlin's house. There, she introduces the familiar friends from Traverse Town and the Hollow Bastion Restoration Committee (the latter of which she is a member of.)
She explains about the town's defense system to Sora, Donald and Goofy and, later on in the game, is one of those who helps fight alongside Sora in the Ravine Trail. When the heartless battle commences, she fights alongside the others.
Again, she is also one of the bosses to fight in the Hades Cup in the Underworld at Olympus Coliseum.
