childhood guilt

#kingdom hearts#kh#riku#kairi#sora#soriku#implied anyway#also once again just to stress#THIS IS NOT KAIRI HATE#it is ALSO not me saying that kairi is a bad person for saying something once as a child#it is an Exploration of Guilt and how even the smallest seeming things can stick with you for years#it is also an exploration of how it feels to realize that you dont really know your best friend anymore#and theyre still your best friend but theyre also a completely different person than they used to be#and you are too but youve never seen it from the other side#anyways. i missed drawing kh lol

This! All of this!!! Kairi is a wasted potential character as long as they keep pushing this "Sora is her only goal" narative.
We could have seen a new her in that rhythm game. She could have started as old Kairi, but as you progressed, she could have realized that "hey, this Sora is not who I remember being" and slowly reach the conclusion that she need something else than SORA, that is fine for her heart to still have feelings for him but to move on, especially at the end when it's shown that only Riku was still fully connected to Sora, that only HIS heart was locked with Sora.
But no, Nonura and Square reduse to go against the machine that is Disney and the het agenda and so, so much of Kairi as a character is lost.
God forbid Kairi have to find a new dream that isn’t being with Sora
#kh#kari#what we could have had#this is not kairi hate#just people being sad and disappointed thatvher character gets wasted#i love you kh really do but I also hate you

Just because you like Soriku doesn't mean you have to hate Kairi or bring her down just because there is another ship involving one of the characters and her.
It's a normal ship.
Hating on her for that is very stupid and childish.
If you want to say how your ship is valid stop being her into it
#I feel that this needs to be addressed#How about we do not hate on Kairi#Liking Kairi 🤝 Soriku#We all love and appreciate Kairi here#I had written some drafts about Kairi and what I wanted for her in KH4#aitsu heart#aitsu heart thoughts#Kingdom Hearts#kairi#soriku

people pointing to one heart as proof s/k is canon is sooooo funny when it seems to be a light only attack
bc like
its been stated consistently throughout the series that you cant just have light. light and dark need to be in balance.
like they literally say 'light!' as the attack starts.
that doesnt seem very balanced to me.
but you know what team attack is?
also, i feel like it being called one heart points even further to it being another s/k red herring.
like, compare that to hearts in tune
love is not being one with someone, or someone else 'completing' you. love is just being with someone. by their side.
and theres also the fact that the attack literally cannot function without the two of them together. they need both wings to fly. whereas the two halves of the combined keyblade can be used on their own
or at least i think they can, anyway. in nightmares end/mirage split we see them used individually to cut the chains before they merge:
plus all the emphasis on the nobodies/replicas/etc being their own people, and growing their own hearts. even tho they were 'content' with being merged with their og selves.
idk, maybe im reading too much into the name. maybe its not that deep. but it still seems kinda weird, with all the emphasis post-kh2 on everyone having their own identities
#kingdom hearts#soriku#riku is the light#kh meta#ali's kh meta#long post#image heavy post#if anything it might be called one heart just cuz kairis was in soras during kh1#didnt expect this to be as long as it is but i just... kept thinking of more#i swear i dont hate s/k i just. i just wish people wouldnt blatantly ignore the story for the sake of it#tho im sure some ppl would say were doing that for soriku 🙄#bitch explain aitsu if it aint soriku

Truly I think I can count on a single hand the number of sorikus I’ve encountered that actually “hate Kairi because she gets in the way of the ship”. It’s an extremely uncharitable accusation that gets slung around at every soriku that doesn’t just absolutely love her though. I mean I understand wanting people to like the character you like, because maybe they have traits you relate to- so that when people dislike or just don’t care about them it can feel personal. But especially for a character who is almost universally agreed to have been written disappointingly, no one is obligated to love or enjoy them (and I think even if Kairi’s lack of development was intentional the execution has never been very good- that is a problem with writing).
#I forgot what else I wanted to say about this I’m just tired#also every time a soriku talks about Kairi’s flaws people think it’s hate?? no??? flaws are what makes a character interesting#Kairi being a flawed person is honestly the only surefire way to get me invested in her as a character#I should say- those flaws being explored#because we have those vague hints of flaws but they have never been addressed in a satisfying way

unpopular opinion: the KH fandom really needs to check their misogyny.
i mean every fandom needs to check their misogyny
#ngl the biggest reason i dont like s/oriku or s/orikai its bc of how ppl treated kairi esp back in the Big Days of kh2#Dont get me STARTED on how ppl treated xion when days came out#I think the only woman ppl didnt treat like shit was aqua and thats bc they all hated on terra instead#Gio replies

being a kh mobile fan is so funny because all the kh content i see is going off about motifs and parallels and the development within both the light/dark and interpersonal connection themes and dissecting how it affects the other events within the story… and then i go to the kh main tag and its ‘Top ten reasons sora and riku should make out on kairis grave (and this will make kairi a better character)’
#NO HATE TOWARDS SORIKU BTW I LIKE SORIKU ITS CUTE THERES THEMES AND DRAMA AND ITS FUN AND THEY LOOK NICE AND EVERYTHING#I GOT INTO KH BECAUSE I LIKED SORA AND RIKU OK#But i am also far to aspec to not notice the implications behind the statement “sora cares lots about riku so they are canonically in love”#Like are you kidding me. In the friendship series. Really.#Also a lot of the theories that make kairi ‘better’ are like: “and then kairi will be inside soras heart forever!”#“And not only will sora not really do anything about this but it will make sense for him to not care :)”#“Human bonds being essential for living and powerful and healing? No kh is about leaving your friends behind actually. ”#“Not riku tho”#Sorry uh#Rant#I guess#(again. Not about soriku or shipping in general i am self aware and not a hypocrite. This is about a very hyperspecific genre of kh fan)

thinking about how they went out of their way to show kairi being put to sleep to search her heart for answers to find sora and that ending in a complete dead end and then had riku’s dreams be the key to finding him. if kairi was truly sora’s love interest, then why wouldn’t they make her the key to find him? like i don’t see a reason not to do that. and they didn’t have to show her going through all the effort to find him and come up completely empty either. they didn’t have to do that all. it really feels like they’re trying to deliberately say something about who is actually sora’s love interest
edit: someone pointed out that kairi did find a clue in melody of memory and i forgot, sorry about that!
but i think my point still stands about riku’s dreams being the key since it’s through them that nameless star recognizes quadratum. it still points him out more as the love interest because a common trope is having a character brave the unknown and face trials to save the person they love. if kairi was sora’s love interest, it would more sense to have her go find him or at least go with riku, if they really want insist she’s too inexperienced (which they didn’t have to, it felt like they were grasping for any excuse to not let her go, which sucks!!) to go by herself. but she gets left behind and that in itself says a lot, in my opinion.
it was incorrect to say that it was a complete dead end and she came up totally empty, though, and I apologize for that!! i don’t want to belittle kairi anymore than the games already do 😭
#no hate to sokai and people that ship it!!! y’all are completely valid to your feelings and opinions#it’s just strange to me that they’d show this and frame it like they did if kairi was his love interest#no hate to kairi either#kingdom hearts#sora#kairi#riku#soriku#i yap

I adore Kairi so much she deserves so much better I'm sending her hugs and kisses and appreciation and pants for kh4 and ice cream and seashells and all the power in the universe and kittens and puppies and moogles an
#this was just gonna be a post on how she deserves to have pants in the next game cause she always has like the shortest skirts/dresses ever#but it turned into full kairi appreciation cause i love her#she got done so dirty by the creators but it's not her fault. we shouldn't hate her just because she was treated horribly by square#kingdom hearts#kairi
