Dream Drop Distance Kairi's Position

I keep thinking, are we seeing a preview of what Kairi's battle position is going to be in the next KH game? Because just before Sora fights Xemnas, and you see the screen pull out and every character is behind him, you see them all in their battle positions, and even Kairi is in something else. Or did they just put her in some random position because everyone else was in one?

 

I'm thinking Lea's is going to something like his stance with the Chakrams. I know they're different weapons, but it just seems the most natural for the guy, and I can somewhat see it working

 

Kairi is still developing some as a fighter; her stance in that screen is different from what we see in Kingdom Hearts II, though it does have its similarities. She takes the double-handed Samurai-like style, as does Sora, but seems to hold her Keyblade straight in front of her, whereas Sora is more towards the side. It's interesting to see what it eventually turns out to be. I can't really see the stance in that picture being conducive to swings, though... I'm not sure.

 

It's possible hers is pointing downwards for shot framing reasons. I'm not sure this screen is the best thing to go off of--I think it's still got more development to go. But we may see something similar to Eraqus, sure.

 

That's why I keep wondering. I know it's probably either still in development or already planned, but since we only saw Kairi use a keyblade in KHII, and that was just a simple swing, this is really the only thing we could go off of for any sort of stance. I mean, I could somewhat see swings coming from that stance, but it would have to have a combo that flows together perfectly. It kinda reminds me of Aqua's stance, as well as Sora's.

 

This remainded me of Samurai X, in the manga there was a short part that explained the advanteges of using each stance.. Kairi's stance is good as she can move freely and that her distance from her targets.

 

Battle stance never really hit me until now but it is unique. I love everything about Kairi though and with the possibility of her being playable in the next KH just blows me away. <3 Kairi.
