Hello everyone it's Spyells reporting! E3 has come and gone, and it looks like Kingdom Hearts was entirely missing, but cheer up, there are bigger events to look forward to in a couple of weeks, as well as our announcement of an Re:Chain of Memories Release in North America. To help pass the time, we're introducing a new feature, Kingdom Hearts: Fight Off. Who would win in a character face off? I'm going to give you a little background into each character's strengths and weaknesseses. Then, you guys decide how the battle will play out! It's a fun way to get everyone involved in some Kingdom Hearts action! The readers decide which characters move on, and which characters are defeated! We want to hear your comments as well, on why you voted the way you did, and why you are supporting one character over another. So let's begin!

Sora Vs. Riku
As we've seen when the two were youngsters living on Destiny Islands, Riku was able to beat Sora without much problem. But now Sora is 15 and he has gotten stronger. Sora can now use drive forms which as we all know allows him to dual wield and to perform special actions for set amounts of time. And of course Sora's weapon is the Kingdom Key or the Keyblade. Sora is a wielder of light.

Riku use to be the stronger of the two. And you could even argue that physically he is still stronger than Sora. Riku wields Way to Dawn and he is a wielder of twilight. He can use the powers of darkness if needed in battle and has proven many times to be a formidable opponent.

Kairi Vs. Namine
Kairi is a princess of heart, a wielder of light. Kairi's only known weapon is the keyblade that Riku handed to her in The World That Never Was. She didn't seem to have a lot of skill but maybe with a little practice she will. There is no indication that she is good at using magic although there is a slight probability.

Namine is a wielder of light although just like Roxas she is a being of the dark (therefore existing in twilight). The only known weapon I've seen her use is her pencil and sketch book. But that certainly has caused trouble for our keyblade master and friends in Chain of Memories. As we've already seen Namine is a powerful witch who can mess with people's memories, especially those that are tied to Sora. But is she good on the battlefield?

Donald Vs. Goofy
Donald is the royal court magician and he wields the mages staff. He is a wielder of light and does whatever it takes to help his friends. Granted he isn't in a bad mood that is. Donald has a very weak defense although he is pretty good at attacking. Of course his strongest feature is his magic.

Goofy is the captain of the royal knights and he wields the knights shield. He is also a wielder of light and is fiercely loyal to his friends, especially Sora. Goofy is usually in a good mood. He is well for lack of better words ‘goofy'. Goofy has a strong defense and a pretty good attack. There isn't much evidence of him being good in magic.

Stick around, the battle's just begun! Make sure to comment on who you voted for and why! Let the battles begin!
