Kingdom Hearts II Do you hate Kairi?

I don't like Mary Sues. So, no. I don't like her at all.

Kingdom Hearts II Kairi's Character

What character? >__>

I really don't like her, which is not strange. I hate Mary Sues. And she doesn't need to be a warrior. You don't need to be a warrior to have a personality and be useful. Trying to make her badass failed so hard in KH2, after all.

Kairi is such a shallow, one-dimensional character. You could accurately predict pretty much everything she says, with ease. It's like as if she tries to come across as a strong female character (like Yuna, Ashe, Dagger, Tifa etc etc) but she is in reality completely helpless, and relies on Sora to save her all the time. And God is she annoying. Like in KH II, in the Castle that Never Was, she goes to Riku "You know Sora's completely hopeless without us". I mean WTF you dumb b*tch, Sora got all the way to save her pretty much single handedly (cos Donald and Goofy are next to redundant in KHII) and the only reason he was there in the first place was because she had to go and get kidnapped, repeatedly. Plus the fact that she never technically helped Sora in the first place. GRRRR. I mean, come on, Namine is a much better character, and would make a much better lead. She's the kind of person you can actually care about (despite the fact that she's a Nobody etc.)

I second this.

In the end, Kairi is just not a likeable or appealing character, for so many reasons. That's why people mentioned Namine. Like Kairi, she has flaws, but unlike Kairi, she is a likeable character, the kind you can actually care about. Kairi is seriously lacking in depth.

Because Namine's were treated like flaws. Kairi is always treated like the perfectly nice princess... even when she isn't.

Now why I like/appreciate Namine more is because unlike Kairi, Namine was held captive and treated badly, so I don't EXPECT Namine to act like a very good person nor have the same moral judgment or backbone as any of the other characters (she had very little chance to), and lo and behold by the end of game she was in, she did improve or in the very least showed signs of change despite how poorly she did treat Repliku. In the least she offers to redeem herself at any cost (siding with DiZ of all people) and do things within her weird power which clearly showed it's limits, unlike Kairi who just pulls them out of thin air... However by the end of KH2 it felt like someone swapped her personality, specifically when she was "with" Roxas. That I will agree is the most "canon" OOC I have ever seen in my life.

Exactly. Besides, as I said before, Namine's flaws were not treated like endearing qualities.

And I agree, NaminÃ© is a Nobody and she has more flaws and character than Kairi could ever hope to have.

No...Terra is the name of a female character from FF VI...along with Celes. I had a feeling people might get confused at the names. Yes, there's Terra in BBS, but it isn't obviously the same person as that one is male, a Keyblade wielder, etc. Terra in FF VI is a female red mage who is half Esper...which Espers basically become the 'Summons' in the game. If you've never played FF VI, you should! Even though the graphics hurt, it's an amazing game.

But Terra was not designed by Nomura.
