Keyblader number one 40 Posted March 7, 2018 I have been wondering who Sora's character based off of. Is he based off of Nomura? Does he reflect off of anybody he knew? 17 The Transcendent Key, RuddnioJib, Devinenaft and 14 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Transcendent Key 12,109 Posted March 8, 2018 (edited) If I'm not mistaken, Nomura had said that he sees himself in Sora in certain aspects, but I don't think that the character of Sora is based off of anyone in particular! Though if I'm not mistaken, I had read on here once that since Donald was not to be the protagonist of the series as the initial idea was being conceived, Sora ended up being designed to be akin to a Disney character, hence the big shoes! I'm saying all this from the top of my head, but I may be wrong! Edited March 8, 2018 by The Transcendent Key Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RikuFangirl2008 1,368 Posted March 8, 2018 Only thing I've heard about Sora is, his outfit is based off of Mickey. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KingdomHearts3 2,591 Posted March 12, 2018 I don’t think he is based off of anyone. His original character was to have a tail and then that was scrapped and was redesigned. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

His Nobody and Zexion have big shoes. 1 The Transcendent Key reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ReverofE 698 Posted March 13, 2018 Nomura fanfic child between Aerith and Cloud who just so happens to be a big fan of Disney stuff (at least until KH2). From Aerith: Affinity to light, Hair Color, Personality. From Cloud: Sword Fighting Skills, Hair Style, Eye Color Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ienzo628 548 Posted March 13, 2018 That's a good point. But Sora looks the most Disney-esque, know what I'm saying? Yeah, it's kind of funny that they made him taller than Goofy. Goofy was taller than all the other Disney characters like Donald Duck, Mickey Mouse, etc. Yet, Sora is completely puny compared to all of the Organization and his Nobody isn't helping matters. 2 The Transcendent Key and selfKaiHarness reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I recall correctly, Goofy is still a tad bit taller than Sora. Remember that Goofy is always slouching. Though Sora has had a growth spurt. But yeah, the Organization are a bunch of big people! 1 selfKaiHarness reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Imagine if Goofy was standing up straight, he'd probably be as tall as Lexaeus. 1 The Transcendent Key reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
