[[File:Kingdom Hearts 01 KHIII.png|thumb|200px|left|Xehanort finishes off Kairi.]]After the defeat of Ansem, Xemnas, and Young Xehanort, Xehanort summons Kairi who is now unconscious. Sora tries to run to her location to save her, but Xehanort strikes her with his Keyblade and her body disappears before Sora can get to her in an attempt to anger him in order to have their final clash necessary for recreating the [[χ-blade]]. After the defeat of Xehanort, Sora leaves using the Power of Waking in order to find Kairi and bring her home. | [[File:Kingdom Hearts 01 KHIII.png|thumb|200px|left|Xehanort finishes off Kairi.]]After the defeat of Ansem, Xemnas, and Young Xehanort, Xehanort summons Kairi who is now unconscious.

Returning back in time to the second [[Keyblade War]], Sora watches an alternate version of her and Lea's fight with Xion and Saïx. Following Roxas's revival, past Sora, spurred by future Sora, has Roxas and Xion attack Saïx and Xemnas. Though Sora is incapacitated, Kairi attacks Xemnas and forces him on the defensive before he restrains and weakens her with nothingness. Sora regains his strength, but Xemnas abducts Kairi. | Returning back in time to the second [[Keyblade War]], Sora watches an alternate version of her and Lea's fight with Xion and Saïx.

Shortly after Sora's disappearance, Kairi believes that something in her heart holds a clue to locating Sora. She goes to Radiant Garden and puts herself to sleep while Ansem the Wise, [[Ienzo]], and [[Even]] examine her heart in hopes of finding a clue about Sora's whereabouts and is still sleeping, even after a year of progress. During her sleep, Kairi has a dream about The Final World. | Shortly after Sora's disappearance, Kairi believes that something in her heart holds a clue to locating Sora.

As a child, as seen during ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'' and scenes from ''Kingdom Hearts'', her hair is a little longer than it is when she's fourteen; she wears a white apron-like shirt with blue flowers and a blue line across the chest, a pink skirt with a white line on it and large, white shoes with pink and purple lines on them. | As a child, as seen during ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'' and scenes from ''Kingdom Hearts'', her hair is a little longer than it is when she's fourteen; she wears a white apron-like shirt with blue flowers and a blue line across the chest, a pink skirt with a white line on it and large, white shoes with pink and purple lines on them. | ||
At age fourteen during ''Kingdom Hearts'', she wears a white top with a black one underneath (the black one shows at her collarbone and at the hem) which slightly exposes her navel, purple bike shorts underneath a purple skirt with a blue belt, and white slip-on shoes with purple caps. She also features a black choker, a yellow wristband as well as a purple arm band on her left arm and a pair of bracelets on her right arm. Kairi's hairstyle is based on {{w|Utada Hikaru}}<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts Ultimania]]''''', '''Tetsuya Nomura''': "Her hair is a secret homage to Utada Hikaru, who provided the theme song.."

In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Kairi is taller and resembles a teenager more as opposed to a child, her hair is longer and has become a darker shade of red, and her bangs part to the opposite side. She dons two outfits in ''Kingdom Hearts II'': her school uniform which has a white shirt of which she has rolled up the sleeves, a sky blue striped tie which she has slightly loosen up, a matching skirt with navy knee-high stockings and black shoes; and then her main outfit which mainly contains a pink strapless mini-dress made up of three zippers (two appear to be just decorative) as well as a white halter top underneath her mini-dress with a black hood. She also sports three bracelets on her left wrist, a black belt reminiscent of suspenders with a note book shaped bag attachment, and lilac sneakers. | In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Kairi is taller and resembles a teenager more as opposed to a child, her hair is longer and has become a darker shade of red, and her bangs part to the opposite side.

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. Also, with Sora's help, heavily damage and defeat the Armored Xehanort. 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. Her combos chain easily, and she can deal heavy damage in a short amount of time. | In battle, Kairi is effective at gap closing and keeping her enemies in the air.

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 Shoot]], 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]] where she shatters the barrier to repel enemies. | Kairi is fairly skilled in magic, and has access to all Magic spells at their highest levels.
