Do you think Kairi is a Keyblade Wielder, or just someone who can use a Keyblade?

 

I think she's just someone who can use a Keyblade, as the rite wasn't properly performed. And that she has to have it handed to her.

[TheKingdomkid 1,194]

right now she is only someone who can use it but i think she will later be able to fully wield it not as good as sora and riku but become a wielder none the less so i have no idea what to vote on lol

[Keyblade_warrior895 51]

it's obvious that she is a keyblade wielder, it's a dead givaway if you played birth by sleep

Actually, that's why I said she isn't. Because the Keyblade Ceremony wasn't properly performed.

[DTD 33]

i go with the thing that kingdom kid said

[Keyblade_warrior895 51]

actually, if you noticed, it was proformed 2 ways, there's the intentional way, with terra and riku, and the unintentional way, with aqua and kairi, in my opinion, it makes an official keyblade wielder either way

[Kinode 3,056]

isn't a Keyblade wielder someone who can wield a Keyblade? I didn't get this question.

[Grimmjow 839]

isn't a Keyblade wielder someone who can wield a Keyblade? I didn't get this question.

 

I think so too.

[Azure Flame 670]

By Keyblade Wielder I meant someone who can use and summon a Keyblade.

[TheApprenticeofKingMickey 3,689]

I agree with the KingdomKid but I still believe Kairi's a proper Keyblade wielder because she touched Aqua's Keyblade the way you would when you're in the keyblade inheritance ceremony. Even if it was unintentional.

[Keyblade King 12 486]

Oh god! Not again! This seems to be one of the topics KH fans go to war with themselves with. Anyone remember this thread. http://kh13.com/forum/topic/15253-is-kairi-a-true-keyblade-wielder/

[Kishira 2,854]

At this point, to me she's just someone who can wield. But maybe later on she can be an official wielder, maybe just maybe.

[Darkfire1408 43]

kairi has a strong heart of pure light. its pretty likely that shes a keyblade wielder. because of riku getting passed up on his keyblade, he can wield his that he gained by choosing twilight. he still had the right to a keyblade of light from the initiation ceremony which is why he can wield others like roxas's oblivion and sora's kingdom key. i think he wielded kairis for a moment to give it to her. she is one. as mickey said, sora, riku, kairi, the truth behind the keyblade lies in you now.

[ssceles 134]

The rite wasn't properly performed for Sora, either. Are you saying you don't think Sora is a Keyblade wielder?

[AAG Connor 5]

she is a wielder because aqua passed the keyblade to her while in radiant garden, but, as we can all agree, she is not as good at fighting as sora or riku

[Azure Flame 670]

It was still given to Sora through Ven's heart. From that connection, he became a Keyblade Wielder.

[rikunobodyxiii 700]

I had a thought on the Rite. The Rite is just a ceremony. When Terra passes it to Riku, he says, "If you have the making". All the right does is give a person a chance to come in contact with a Keyblade to see if he has a heart strong enough to use it.

Does this mean Kairi is a wielder? Maybe. Is she? I think so, but I don't know. I'll have to wait and see.

[J. Severe 1,137]

Maybe we'd actually get to see if she's a real Keyblade Wielder and if she can kick butt... if Nomura would actually do something with her!

 

... Did that come out right? O_o

[ssceles 134]

According to you. According to Nomura:

 

About Riku being the rightful owner of the Keyblade – Why is it that Sora had the Keyblade first?

Nomura: That part is also a bit vague. In the Destiny Islands when Riku is swallowed by the Darkness, there’s a sparkle of light, and next comes the scene where Sora first gets the Keyblade, right? In my setting, the Darkness wrapping itself around those two is the Darkness of Riku’s heart. At the moment when Sora enters that Darkness, the light you can see is the Light of the heart. Sora, trying to help Riku, struggling in the Darkness, touches that light and temporarily the Keyblade goes to Sora.

Of course, one must acknowledge that this is outdated (and thus the vague-ness that it was in 2004 has been much more fleshed out), Nomura constantly goes back on his word, and as many people complain, the official information he hands out is not to be treated as the word of god, despite the fact he's the one controlling the plot.

 

Oh, but there's more:

Nomura: The Keyblade that Roxas used and the Keyblade that Sora once lost in Castle Oblivion are the same thing. Furthermore, these two both used the Keyblade at the same time. This can be explained by the relationship between Roxas and Sora. Thus, they both can wield two Keyblades, which, in fact, has an important meaning. This is also related to Xehanort’s memories, but this point can’t be touched on just yet.

It's almost as if he means it exactly as you say it: It has to do with Ventus. But two? If you acknowledge it has to do with Ventus then you must acknowledge Vanitas is responsible for Sora having two, almost, and that neither are actually Sora's. =|

 

But going by the first quote, Sora has the Keyblade because of Riku. Kairi also has hers because of Riku. *shrug* Believe either, and while you're at it, keep in mind the apparently 'non-canonical' fight between Sora and Roxas in KH2FM+ where Sora wields three Keyblades.

 

Personally: Sora doesn't have a Keyblade anymore than Kairi does. If Kairi doesn't have one, Sora doesn't, by my standards.

Nomrua also stated that even without Ven's heart, Sora would have gotten a Keyblade. Ven's heart just sped up the process. Also, Vanitas has nothing to do with it, as he was destroyed in BBS. Sora ended up having a strong enough heart to get his own Keyblade, and was able to use it after Roxas was created with Sora's body and Ven's heart. This is also why they are able to Dual Wield.

 

Anyways, this isn't about Sora. it's about whether you think Kairi is a Keyblade Wielder or not

[Exlon 165]

Where the heck did this "inheritance ceremony" or "rite" come from anyway? As far as I know from the NA-released KH games, there's nothing whatsoever that says you can "pass along" the Keyblade legacy.

 

Oh, and I think she just can "use" the Keyblade, but she does not quite have the ability yet to actually summon it and wield it like her own.

It's in BBS, when Terra talks to Riku.

[Number XV 490]

I think she can summon it, but Riku handed it to her to say, "Here, you can wield a Keyblade, but it's faster to give it to you at the moment, because you're new to this."

[ssceles 134]

/lack of source. I form my opinions on facts. I merely explained why I believe what I do, not to start an argument. *Shrug*

 

Both Vanitas and Ventus were helped by Sora. Without him, both are merely half a heart. With Sora, they are two hearts. Vanitas isn't dead, nor is he whole with Ven. He's a vital part of Ventus and he can't just disappear without killing him. They are both back to a state of relying wholly on Sora, unable to stand on their own. This is merely what I observe.

 

The topic is Kairi. Riku's handing her a Keyblade is just as official as Terra giving one to Riku and Riku giving one to Sora: Riku can steal Sora's. He's only able to use it as long as Riku is allowing it, but the Keyblade also has a will of its own, and it will stay with the stronger heart. The master in a master-apprentice relationship is almost guaranteed to have the stronger heart and I'd see it as the right of any master to be able to reclaim any Keyblades they'd ever handed out if they felt they were being misused. I wholly do not believe Sora's Keyblade is Ven's. I believe he can use Ven's, though, and this is why he has two. This is only my opinion and the thread asked for it. I simply backed up why I believe it.

[Rob 5,571]

If Kairi can wield it, she'll definitely be able to summon one later.
