Sora and Riku Vs. Sora and Kairi

[Silverthorns]

Which is a better couple, Sora and Riku or Sora and Kairi. And Why are they better?


Personally I think its Sora and Riku because of all the information and clues leading to it.

Requested by: So many people in mumble XD

Depends on whether or not you're a Yaoi fan xD

Actually what clues? If you're refering to the "How many times Sora says Kairi and Riku's names count" that is flawed. Or if you're refering to how much time Sora spends with them that would also be flawed.

In Kingdom Hearts, Sora is searching for both Riku and Kairi. He finds them, but Kairi is sent back to the island, while Riku gets trapped inside Kingdom Hearts. Sora stays behind to find Riku, because his goal was to get both his friends back to Destiny Island. If Riku was sent back to the island and Kairi trapped in Kingdom Hearts, Sora would still stay behind to find her.

In Chain of Memories, Sora is only looking for Riku, because he knows Kairi is safe. Sora's memory of Kairi is destoryed though, so he only remembers that he was looking for Riku.

In Kingdom Hearts 2, Sora doesn't remember anything that happened in CoM, so he still thinks Kairi is on the Island, and that he is supposed to be looking for Riku. When he finds Riku, all the stress he was overwhelmed because of all the stress he had gone through. While when he found Kairi, he was slightly confused, wondering how she came to be in the middle of the situation.

So that's what happens. Anyways for me, I'd say Sora and Kairi, but that becuase I like the RikuxNamine and XionxRoxas pairings lol

Well, Before I learned what seems anything about KH, I thought that S&K were good.

But, I now see that S&R is just as good, if not better.

Again, depends on how much of a yaoi fan you are. Thorns, you haven't told me the 'evidence' for Sora and Riku yet. Its the debate section people, debate please!

I've held myself away from here for TOO long >:D

Okay, I'm going with Sora and Kairi for several reasons.

AND HERE IS MAH EVIDENCE:
1. In the beginning of Kingdom Hearts 1, the Paoupou fruit is talked about in a romantic way, saying it will wrap up two people's destinies forever if they share one. Sora acts on this by drawing a mural of himself giving Kairi a Paoupou fruit.
2.During the credits of the same game, Kairi is seen discovering this mural and adds in herself giving Sora a Paoupou fruit.
3. During the events of Kingdom Hearts 1, Kairi gives Sora a Wayfinder, which is symbolic of a relationship between the giver and receiver (seen manifested as Dimensional links were the two draw on each others power to fight in Birth by Sleep). Sora uses the Wayfinder as a Keychain, symbolizing that he is always thinking of Kairi when he is in battle.
4. Towards the end of Kingdom Hearts 1, Sora goes as far as sacrificing himself and injuring his best friend for the sake of saving Kairi's heart. After this, Sora is trapped in the darkness, but seeks out his light when he is stuck there. This light is Kairi, who notices something different about the heartless following her. She hugs the heartless and it is returned to its true form (Sora). Sora and Kairi's relationship is so strong, that it was able to pull Sora out of the darkness.
5. During the end credits of Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, Naminé shows Sora all of his old friends and restores his memories of them. Sora sees everyone almost simultaneously, but does not react in happiness until he sees Kairi, completely ignoring Riku.
(Pssst, I might change this some more and add some more reasons when I finally get a chance to play KH2)

Although there may be some times were Riku has shown attraction to Sora, he ignores this. Anytime Sora is seen showing what MIGHT be attraction to Riku, it is usually him acting to save or help his best friend.

TAKE THAT!
