Game clothes[edit]

Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep version[edit]

Sora (Young) KHBBS.png

InKingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Sora wears a white v-neck T-shirt with blue edging, red shorts with a maroon pocket on each of the sides, and brown sandals with orange-yellow velcro straps. As a child, Sora's hair is lighter and flatter, and he has side-swept bangs.

Kingdom Hearts version[edit]

Sora

InKingdom Hearts,Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories, the opening ofKingdom Hearts II, and the opening ofKingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance, Sora's outfit is primarily designed after Mickey's appearance. He wears a red jumpsuit that has a long zipper running through the middle, ending with puffy shorts. He wears a crown-chain on his left side and a loosely worn blue belt. Over his jumpsuit, Sora wears a black hoodie that is blue on the inside, and black on the outside with white sleeves ending in grey edging. He wears white gloves on his hands with blue, black and yellow straps. He wears the crown pendant around his neck. His shoes are mainly yellow and black with belt-straps holding them closed. The lower portions are grey and end with a small triangular patch of blue.

In the original PlayStation 2 release ofKingdom Hearts andKingdom Hearts Chain of Memories, Sora's hair was a darker brown color. In the HD remasters of those games (which uses his model from the beginning ofDream Drop Distance), Sora's hair color was lightened and closer to his hair color inKingdom Hearts II.

Kingdom Hearts II version[edit]

Sora (KHIIFM) KHIIHD.png

InKingdom Hearts II, the prologue and epilogue ofKingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance,Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage, and theOlympus episode ofKingdom Hearts III, Sora wears a black revision of hisKingdom Hearts clothing. The hoodie is colored black, with silver pauldron-like additions to his sleeves and white lining. His undershirt is a navy blue with a red patch in the center. His pants, similar tochaps, are colored black on the outside, and a navy blue on the inside, lined with silver-white edging. Yellow straps criss-cross around his pants, held together with a black belt. The pants feature red pockets with a black cross over them. His gloves are colored black on the outside and white on the inside with a yellow line running around them. He also wears large black-yellow shoes with silver soles, a zipper running across the top, and black straps holding them together with buckles here and there. Sora's crown pendant is present on this attire.

InKingdom Hearts III, when Sora uses mostFormchanges, his clothes do not change. The sole exception isRage Form, which is identical toAntiform.

Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance version[edit]

Render for KH3DHD

InDream Drop Distance, Sora's appearance in the Sleeping Worlds is younger with a mainly black and red attire. His hair is also colored a blend of his hairs in the two numbered titles. His hoodie is mainly grey, with black lining with the hood being red. His sleeves are grey with white lines separating them from the red edging. His shirt is also black and bears aRecusant's Sigil, the X on his shirt, placed there without Sora's knowledge by thereal Organization XIII. His gloves take a similar approach to those of hisKingdom Hearts II, with them being black and yellow and having a grey shape on the center. Sora's pants are red, with a dark blue belt that is held together by a silver belt buckle. His pockets are red with white edging. His shoes take a similar design to hisKingdom Hearts shoes, but the straps are white and the tongue is colored yellow. Sora's crown pendant is present on this form as well.

Kingdom Hearts III version[edit]

New render of Sora from E3 2018/Kingdom Hearts Premiere Invitation events

InKingdom Hearts III, Sora wears an outfit which appears to be a modified version of his attire fromKingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance. Sora has overall been given an older look with shorter, flatter hair, and a sleeker outfit than any of Sora's other outfits in the series, with Sora sporting smaller shoes and pants which are less baggy than ones he wore previously. He retains his signature crown necklace.

Sora wears a black jacket with grey pockets and a stripe of the same color on each sleeve. The hood, sleeves and jacket have a red lining, and six buttons can be seen on the front. Underneath, Sora wears a black tanktop with a V-neck style collar and a white lining. His gloves are replaced with gauntlets with a similar color scheme to his jacket. The gauntlets have red linings and grey circles on the backs, with yellow buckled straps wrapped around Sora's wrists. The palms of his hands are exposed.

Sora's shorts are black, and are roughly the same length as they are in hisKingdom Hearts II attire, with several grey pockets. A red band wraps around each pant leg. His shoes also resemble those of hisKingdom Hearts II outfit, with the blue straps and zipper now removed.

Drive Forms[edit]

Main article:Drive Form

Valor Form[edit]

"An image of you utilizing your strength to its fullest flows into your mind."
—Mirror in the Mysterious Tower describing Valor Form

Valor Form is a form introduced inKingdom Hearts II. It turns Sora's clothes red and white with thefleur-de-lis emblem on each sleeve and pant leg. It is obtained at the same time Sora receives his new clothes at the beginning ofKingdom Hearts II, and costs 3 Drive bars. In this form, Sora wields two Keyblades, and merges with Goofy, removing him from the battle for the duration of the transformation. Sora also becomes very dexterous, sometimes even spinning the Keyblade on a single finger during a combo. No matter what world Sora is in, Sora's hands glow light red and flicker with red electricity. When Sora runs in Valor Form, flakes of red energy fly off of his hands in a streak. To transform into Valor Form, Goofy must be in the active party, and must not be KO'ed.

Wisdom Form[edit]

"An image of you utilizing your magic to its fullest flows into your mind."
—Mirror in the Mysterious Tower describing Wisdom Form

Wisdom Form is a form introduced inKingdom Hearts II. It turns Sora's clothing blue and black, with an emblem, resembling blue flames, on the ends of his pants and sleeves.[1] It is obtained after Sora defeats Pete in Timeless River and restores peace to Disney Castle, and costs 3 Drive bars. Sora wields only one Keyblade in this form, and Donald must be in the active party in order to use this form. While in Wisdom Form, specks of light float around Sora's legs. There is also a blue magical mist surrounding Sora's feet that turns into two light blue wisps, one rising from each foot, when Sora slides across landscape. Sora's ability to slide across the ground covers his entire body with him sliding across the ground on his back during some combos. The only time Sora actually stands is when he lands from a jump. These wisps circle Sora in a manner similar to a double helix when Sora is stationary. Sora moves acrobatically in this form, spinning the Keyblade idly behind his back when not moving, and flipping around when shooting magic bullets. He also tosses the Keyblade into the air when he jumps, catching it when he reaches his height.

Limit Form[edit]

"An image of you obtaining your old powers flows into your mind."
—Mirror in the Mysterious Tower describing Limit Form

Limit Form is a form introduced inKingdom Hearts II Final Mix. It is obtained alongside the Oathkeeper when Sora returns to Twilight Town to look for Kairi, and changes Sora's clothes into the same colors and style of the clothes he wore inKingdom Hearts andKingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories. However, a red crown appears on his knees and sleeves, whereas in the previous games there were none. This is the only Drive Form where Sora has no auras of light surrounding him (although whenever he enters a new area, his torso glows red for a short time and a few specks of light fall off of him). This is also the only Form Sora can use while he is alone. Using this form takes 4 Drive bars, and will not make any party members disappear if there are any when he enters this form. In this form, Sora wields various abilities he had inKingdom Hearts andKingdom Hearts Final Mix. His combo finishers become Zantetsuken and Ripple Drive on the ground, and Hurricane Period in the air respectively. He also gains 4 Limits based on the special attacks he had previously: Sonic Rave (Sonic Blade), Last Arcanum (Ars Arcanum), Strike Raid, and Infinity (Ragnarok). Another of his old abilities, Dodge Roll, also becomes this form's Growth Ability, and Sora's Guard stance changes to the one fromKingdom Hearts while in this form.

Master Form[edit]

"An image of you possessing all abilities flows into your mind."
—Mirror in the Mysterious Tower describing Master Form

Master Form is a form introduced inKingdom Hearts II. It has a yellow and black color scheme, and is received from King Mickey after you reunite with him in Hollow Bastion. It is the last Drive Form that Sora gains through the story, apart from Final Form, which is obtained through gameplay. The symbols on his pants are three black crosses arranged in a fancy overlapping pattern. When in Master Form on any world, pale yellow sparkles constantly fall off Sora and create somewhat of a streak behind him when running. Also, the floating Keyblade is held in place by a yellow aura surrounding Sora's hand and the Keyblade he is physically holding seems to have deep yellow electricity flowing through it. Using this form costs 4 Drive bars, and there must be 2 people other than Sora in the active party (though it does not matter who). While in this form, Sora almost exclusively attacks with aerial combos.

Final Form[edit]

"An image of the Keyblade unleashing its ultimate power flows into your mind."
—Mirror in the Mysterious Tower describing Final Form

Final Form is a form introduced inKingdom Hearts II. Unlike the other Forms, Final Form is not granted to Sora directly, but instead Sora is given the potential to randomly enter Final Form while trying to enter a Form after defeating Roxas. After it has been entered once, it is added to the Drive menu like a standard Form, and can thereafter only be entered by choice. Due to this, the easiest way to obtain this Form is to enter the Cerberus Cup in the Olympus Coliseum, which quickly refills the Drive Gauge. InKingdom Hearts II Final Mix, theTwo Become One Keychain makes this process much simpler through itsLight & Darkness ability, which will make Sora automatically enter Antiform or Final Form if it hasn't been activated yet. This form changes Sora's clothes to silvery white and black, with the symbols on his pants somewhat resembling an eye with a wind pattern. This may be a parallel to the Anti-Form, with Anti-Form representing Sora's Heartless side, and Final Form representing, through Roxas, his Nobody side. Each Keyblade seems to move with an arm, though when Sora stops moving they hover behind him. Thus, every move is an attack in itself. No matter what world Sora is on, while in Final Form, he never touches the ground unless he lands from a jump. Sora's hair and clothes slowly flow as if he is being held by the wind. His clothes systematically flicker white while in the form, and there are two large sparkles of pure white light that orbit around Sora, with a white wisp following them. When Sora is standing still, his Keyblades hover behind him, almost like folded wings. When he floats (which he does instead of walking and running), they open, as if Sora is flying.

Antiform[edit]

"An image of you overcome by the power of darkness flows into your mind."
—Mirror in the Mysterious Tower describing Antiform

Antiform is a form introduced inKingdom Hearts II. It is strongly reminiscent of theAntiSora Heartless fromKingdom Hearts, and Sora's ability to enter this form is due to his transformation into aShadow.[?][2] Specifically, Sora's Antiform has more feral behavior in which it runs about on all fours, and instead of using the Keyblade in this form, Sora attacks with claws on his hands. Aesthetically, Sora's skin and hair become ink black, his eyes glow yellow like a Heartless, and his clothes become black with blue accents. Furthermore, he constantly emits Darkness from his arms and back in the form of misty black and violet wisps.

Halloween Town version[edit]

Sora HT KHII.png

In Halloween Town, Sora's clothing becomes almost completely black, appearing to be made of faded leather. He wears white gloves and has clawed fingers, the shoulders of his jacket are grey, and he has very small, black, bat wings on his upper back. His normal shoes are replaced with large, black ones with pointed toes and a grey stripe on their midsections. His legs are wrapped in what appear to be black and red bandages. Sora's canines become more pointed and his face, particularly the area around his eyes, becomes more ashen and shadowed in appearance. His hair is a darker shade of brown and he wears an orange mask on the right side of his face, covering his right eye. The mask is circular with small horns on the top, a jagged, jack o' lantern-esque mouth, and triangular eyes. The mask's right eye is green and the left one appears to be closed or scratched out; it is also reminiscent of the curled eye emblem featured on several Heartless breeds. Sora's Keyblade becomes darker and more ashen in coloration like his clothing while he is in this form.

Master Form's mask is an unevenly stitched fusion of Valor Form and Wisdom Form's masks, with Valor Form's on the right half and Wisdom Form's on the left. Final Form's mask is a bronze crown. Antiform's mask resembles aShadow Heartless.

Christmas Town version[edit]

Sora CT KHIIFM.png

Exclusive to theFinal Mix version, in Christmas Town, Sora retains the dark, ashen physical appearance, boots, pants, and legs wrappings from his Halloween Town costume. The rest of his clothing, however, changes radically. His mask is replaced by a large, black hat with a white fur rim and a puff ball on the tip, similar toSanta Claus's, that is pulled over the right half of his face. He wears a black shirt with white fur lining, silver crown buttons lining the front, and a faded, brown belt with a silver buckle around his waist and over the shirt. His arms are shown to be unusually thin and have a slight brown tint to them. His gloves turn black and have white fur lining around the cuffs. Sora's Keyblade is slightly brighter in this form than it is in his Hallowen Town Form.

The color of Sora's hat and the back of his shirt gain a slight tint to match the Drive Form he is currently in. His hat and the back of his shirt also gain a symbol to match the appropriate form. When Sora is in Valor Form, his hat gains a redfleur-de-lis and the shirt is adorned with a thorn pattern. Wisdom Form's hat and shirt both sport a blue flame. Limit Form's hat and shirt both sport a white crown. There is a single gold cross on Master Form's hat, and several more on the shirt. Final Form's hat is emblazoned with a silver, N-shaped rune, and the shirt bears a pair of wings. Antiform's hat and shirt are both adorned by a stylized Heartless emblem.

His first visit to Christmas Town was nothing short of exciting. That feeling combined with the Keyblade's power is the essence of this outfit.

Timeless River version[edit]

Sora TR KHII.png

In Timeless River, Sora resembles a stylized version of his earliest incarnation, in the originalKingdom Hearts. His clothing is much simpler in this form than it was in his first appearance, sporting almost none of the straps and zippers it originally had. As with almost all characters in the Timeless River, Sora is colored completely in shades of white, grey, and black. His face, arms, and figure have a much more cartoonish look, and more closely match therubber hose-style of cartoons. Sora also transforms into his Timeless River version while using thePhantom Rush andNoise FluxShotlocks.

When using most Drive Forms, Sora's physical appearance does not change. Instead, the icon of his head near theHP Bar tints color slightly to reflect the Form he takes. The tint is red for Valor Form, blue for Wisdom Form, purple for Limit Form, yellow for Master Form, and white for Final Form. When Sora enters Antiform, he becomes a black silhouette with grey eyes, a change that is also reflected in the icon.

Space Paranoids version[edit]

Sora SP KHII.png

In Space Paranoids, Sora's outfit changes to match the suit of a neutral Program. His clothing is replaced with robotic, grey and dark blue armor covered in glowing, cyan computer circuitry, and he wears a sleek helmet that covers his forehead and wraps over the top of his head to the back of his neck, leaving the sides of his head and two tufts of hair exposed, with two cyan prongs jutting diagonally from the back. His skin also becomes light blue and his hair turns grey. Sora does not wear his crown necklace in this form, while his Keyblades take on glowing blue circuit lines to match the world's aesthetic.

InKingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance, Sora recalls his Space Paranoids form following his battle withRinzler.

When using Drive Forms, his armor's circuitry changes color to match the Drive Form he is in. In Valor Form, the circuits are red, in Wisdom Form, they become a darker shade of blue, and Master Form's circuitry is yellow. Limit Form's armor and circuits are colored to vaguely match with the colors of Sora's original outfit; his torso, helmet, and arms are silver, his pants are red, his shoes are yellow, and there is a blue band around his waist and collar. In Final Form, the armor's color becomes more predominantly grey and the circuits become silver. Antiform's armor is black and the circuitry is grey.

Pride Lands version[edit]

Sora PL KHII.png
Main article:Lion Form

In the Pride Lands, Sora takes the form of a lion cub. His fur is predominantly an ashy shade of brown, though his toes, belly, and the fur around his mouth are very light grey. His mane is shaped like his normal hairstyle, and is the same light brown color. There is a tuft of light brown fur on the tip of his tail, and he has three whiskers on either side of his nose. His eyes are bright blue and his sclera are yellow. His silver crown necklace still hangs from his neck in this form. He holds his Keyblade in his mouth, though when he opens the world's Gate or enters a Limit with Simba, he holds the Keyblade with his tail.

The Grid version[edit]

Sora TG KH3D.png

In The Grid, Sora appears similar to how he does in Space Paranoids, though his armor is now completely black with white circuitry, with the patterns on his chest and back different from before. He lacks his prongs and a visor is now attached to his helmet, which is smaller than it was in Space Paranoids. Sora's crown necklace disappears, now incorporated into his form's design as it appears both on his chest and in the space of hisIdentity Disk. Sora's Keyblade takes on a similar appearance as well, this time black with white circuitry.

Unlike in Space Paranoids, Sora's skin tone and hair color is the same as in his normal form.

Toy Box version[edit]

Development[edit]

In early artwork forKingdom Hearts III, Sora's outfit had a different color scheme, being more monochromatic in color, and depicts him as human as opposed to an action figure.

Kingdom Hearts III[edit]

Toy Story World Form

In Toy Box, Sora takes the form of an action figure based onYozora fromVerum Rex. He wears a grey jacket with darker grey sleeves and red lining. He also has pockets with a checkered design, and gold buttons on the shoulders. Underneath he wears a red shirt with black diamonds going down the middle. His shorts are a darker shade of grey, with the same checkered pattern. His shoes are now black boots with a gold band and zippers, and he wears similar gloves. His signature crown necklace remains in this form, attached to his neck.

When usingFormchanges, Sora's outfit changes to match each form, retaining the global color scheme of his regular appearance—red for Strike Form, blue for Element Form, yellow for Guardian Form, green for Blitz Form, black-and-blue for Second Form, and black for Rage Form.

Several forms diverge from Sora's regular appearance—Second Form takes on the color scheme of Sora's regular outfit fromKingdom Hearts II, Ultimate Form displays a white jacket with black shorts, Light Form has a grey jacket and white shorts with black accents, and Dark Form has a faded purple jacket with dark trousers (matchingOblivion's color palette).

Even so, compared to his regular appearance, his jacket is dotted by various colored checkers which follow the overall form outfit color scheme. Additionally, the checkers on his shorts take on additional colors that represents each form's original motif—yellow, white and black for Second Form (figuring the yellow straps and silver lining of hisKingdom Hearts II outfit), white, red and black for Strike Form (figuring Strike Form's urban camouflage and red straps), black, blue and grey for Element Form, gold and black for Guardian Form, Prussian blue for Blitz Form (replacing the form's blue flames), gradients of grey for Ultimate Form, and blue for Rage Form (although without any fluorescence), black for Light Form (contrasting with its white trousers), white, black and purple for Dark Form, and black, grey and silver for Double Form.

Monstropolis version[edit]

Sora, as he appears in the Monsters, Inc.-based world in Kingdom Hearts III

In Monstropolis, Sora takes a bestial form covered in pale blue fur. His ears are larger and pointed, his fingers end in black claws, and his legs become somewhat canine in structure, with three-clawed feet. He also has a small, canine tail. His hair changes into three red leaf-like parts; obscuring his right eye. Sora lacks pants and shoes in this form, although his gloves and jacket are unchanged. His signature crown necklace is retained.

When usingFormchanges, Sora's fur and stripes change color to match that form—orange fur and red stripes for Strike Form, navy blue with white stripes for Element Form, neon yellow and orange stripes for Guardian Form, green fur and blue stripes for Blitz Form, yellow fur and blue stripes for Second Form, white fur and black stripes for Ultimate Form, black[?] for Rage Form, light grey fur and white stripes for Light Form, dark purple fur and white stripes for Dark Form, and grey fur with alternating white and black stripes for Double Form. His jacket also continues to switch appearance with each form, retaining the same colors and patterns as with his regular, complete outfit.

Furthermore, some of Sora's forms also change the color of his leaf-like hair—white for Ultimate Form, raven black for Rage Form, blonde for Light Form, black for Dark Form, and brown with blonde highlights (emphasizing the leaves' "apex" and "veins") for Double Form.

The Caribbean version[edit]

Sora as he appears in The Caribbean

While inThe Caribbean, Sora gains an outfit that greatly resembles Jack Sparrow's, mainly in its mix-matched amalgamation. He sports a dingy white undershirt, striped grey linen trousers (in the same capris style as his normal outfit), and his shoes have merged into a hybrid of period appropriate seaboots and hightop sneakers and have turned a faded black. He wears a fine silk, crimson waistcoat hemmed with gold and bronze buttons which is tied with a faded brown leather belt which sports a small buckle and an anachronistic double tongue. Over which, he dons a patched grey, leather coat with large cuffs, a dingy white or brown fur collar, and fitted with buttons likely made from brass or bronze. Sora's trademark spikes are heavily concealed this time around, beneath a faded blue bandanna and a faded-black tricorne that with a cross-shaped stitch on the right-hand side, and a crown faded in on the left. His signature crown necklace is the only piece of his normal outfit to endure into this one. He also appears to have a golden tooth whenever he opens his mouth in this form.

The overall color scheme is similar to Sora's appearance in Toy Box, albeit with more faded colors.

When using aFormchange, Sora's waistcoat, bandanna, cuffs and inner leather coat change color to match that form—red[?] for Strike Form, blue[?] for Element Form, yellow for Guardian Form, green[?] for Blitz Form, black-and-blue[?] for Second Form, white for Ultimate Form, and black[?] for Rage Form.

Second Form, Light Form, Dark Form and Double Form have different color palettes—Second Form has a black-and-blue waistcoat but white bandanna and cuffs; Light Form dons a white bandanna, grey waistcoat and cuffs, and white on the inner part of the leather coat; Dark Form has a white bandanna, a faded purple waistcoat, grey cuffs and a black inner leather coat; Double Form has a white bandanna, grey waistcoat, white cuffs, and the inner part of the leather jacket is split between white and black.

For most forms, their signature patterns (such as Light Form's kanji or Guardian Form's diamond checkers) are visible on the lower half of the inner side of Sora's leather coat. However, Blitz Form diverges from Sora's regular outfit, donning a green camouflage pattern (instead of blue flames) that is also shown on the cuffs.

These changes are accompanied by new symbols on Sora's hat (replacing the crown)—Second Form has a blue heart (similar to theKingdom Hearts logo) above two white criss-crossingKingdom Keys; Strike Form has three fleur-de-lis (similar toValor Form); Element Form shows five white stars; Guardian Form shows three yellow diamonds crossed by white "X"s; Blitz Form has a white flame motif (similar toWisdom Form); Ultimate Form displays three white crowns; Rage Form tints the regular crown to black-and-blue; Light Form displays two copies of Kairi's lucky charm; Dark Form dons a drawing of the tip of Oblivion's blade; and Double Form has a white, single heart. All these motifs on Sora's hat are also visible on his HUD portrait.

San Fransokyo version[edit]

Sora render from San Fransokyo

Sora's outfit and body do not change when he appears in San Fransokyo. However, after arriving in Hiro's Garage for the first time, he is given an AR headset byHiro Hamada, which allows him to communicate with the members of Big Hero 6 and gather data for fighting the Heartless. The design of the visor is similar to Hiro's helmet, and colored to match the black and red of Sora's clothes. After receiving the headset, Sora always wears it during gameplay, although he does take it off on occasion in cutscenes.

Notes and references[edit]

  1. ^In the original release ofKingdom Hearts II, Sora's sleeves erroneously bear Master Form's emblem. This is corrected inKingdom Hearts II Final Mix.
  2. ^Famitsu Interview;Interviewer: "Is Antiform originated from when Sora got turned into a Heartless?" / Tetsuya Nomura: "Story-wise, yes. Drives are very strong so Antiform exists as a side-effect of using too much power. System-wise, I wanted to create something strong but troublesome."Translation by KHInsider.
