|The manga adaptions of the series show Sora's bashfulness as well. For example, in the ''Chain of Memories'' manga, Jiminy asked him if he "promised his girlfriend" that he'd return home and Sora immediately said Kairi wasn't his girlfriend.}}

Sora also holds strong affection for his best friend, Riku. When Aqua meets the two boys in ''Birth by Sleep'' and asks if he likes Riku, he enthusiastically confirms this, declaring that they're best friends. Sora eventually makes good on his promise to her to look after Riku in the first ''Kingdom Hearts'', traveling to the End of the World to save him from Ansem, Seeker of Darkness. Sora is also shown to care deeply for the Riku Replica in ''Chain of Memories'', attempting to bring him home and becoming appalled when Naminé shatters his heart, as he believed he was the real Riku. In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', when he realizes he's been reunited with Riku in the World that never was, he drops to his knees and breaks down crying in relief, sobbing as he holds Riku's hand in both of his own. Their [[Combined Keyblade]] in ''Dream Drop Distance'' bears a paopu fruit as the charm once the two halves are merged together. After Riku awakes from his dive into Sora's heart, the latter tackles him with a hug, overwhelmed with joy at Riku's safe return. In ''Kingdom Hearts III'', when his arrives in San Fransokyo, Sora pulls out his Gummiphone and exclaims that he has to tell Riku how great it is, despite having not actually seen nor done much in the world thus far. When Chip and Dale inform Sora, Donald, and Goofy that they've lost contact with Riku and Mickey, Sora becomes immensely upset, immediately traveling to the Destiny Islands afterward and using Master's Defender to open an entrance to the Realm of Darkness so he can provide support in battle for Riku. Additionally, in a 2013 interview about ''Kingdom Hearts III'', series producer Shinji Hashimoto stated in an interview that the main focus of the series is Sora and Riku's relationship, and how it evolves over time.<ref>[https://www.ign.com/articles/2013/09/25/how-kingdom-hearts-iii-will-grow-up-with-its-players '''''How Kingdom Hearts III Will Grow Up With Its Players'''''], '''Shinji Hashimoto''': "The fact is that the main focus of the series is Sora and Riku; how their friendship develops, but also how they grow up."</ref>
