Kairi (Japanese: カイリ) is a fictional character from Square Enix's Kingdom Hearts series. She debuted in the original Kingdom Hearts (2002) as the best friend of protagonists Sora and Riku. Kairi is a former resident of Radiant Garden and one of the seven Princesses of Heart; as part of experiments conducted by the antagonist Xehanort, she was sent away from her homeworld in hopes of finding the one who possesses the Keyblade. After Sora defeats one of Xehanort's incarnations, Kairi is separated from him and left behind on the reforming Destiny Islands. In later games, Riku gives her the Keyblade Destiny's Embrace (デスティニープレイス, Desutinī Pureisu; lit. "Destiny Place"), which she uses to become a fighter. She becomes playable in the downloadable content (DLC) of Kingdom Hearts III (2019). Kairi is an original character created by Tetsuya Nomura for the Kingdom Hearts series. She is voiced by Risa Uchida in the Japanese version. In English, she is voiced by the late Hayden Panettiere in Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts II (2005), and Blank Points (the secret ending of Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep (2010)), and by Alyson Stoner in Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories (2007), Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days (2009), and Kingdom Hearts III (2019). As a child in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, she is voiced by Sumire Morohoshi in Japanese and Ariel Winter in English. Critical response to the character has ranged from mixed to negative, largely due to her frequent portrayal as a damsel in distress across multiple games, even after she gains the power and skill to fight in Kingdom Hearts III. This has also caused opinions of her romantic relationship with Sora to weaken over time, as their bond does not evolve and Sora is continuously fighting to save her rather than alongside her.
